“Other Expenses” include interest expense of 0.04%. Interest expense is borne by the Fund separately from the management fees paid to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”). Excluding interest expense, Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement are 0.50%, 0.60%, 0.65%, 0.90% and 1.65% for Institutional Class, I-2, I-3, Class A and Class C shares, respectively.

PIMCO has contractually agreed, through July 31, 2026, to reduce its supervisory and administrative fee for the Fund’s I-3 shares by 0.05% of the average daily net assets attributable to I-3 shares of the Fund. This Fee Waiver Agreement renews annually unless terminated by PIMCO upon at least 30 days’ prior notice to the end of the contract term.

Example. The Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in Institutional Class, I-2, I-3, Class A or Class C shares of the Fund with the costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the noted class of shares for the time periods indicated, and then hold or redeem all your shares at the

end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

If you redeem your shares at the end of each period:

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Institutional Class	$55	$173	$302	$677
I-2	$65	$205	$357	$798
I-3	$70	$232	$407	$914
Class A	$319	$518	$733	$1,354
Class C	$272	$533	$918	$1,799

If you do not redeem your shares:

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class A	$319	$518	$733	$1,354
Class C	$172	$533	$918	$1,799

Portfolio Turnover

The Fund pays transaction costs when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in the Annual Fund Operating Expenses or in the Example tables, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 17% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its assets in a diversified portfolio of Fixed Income Instruments of varying maturities, which may be represented by forwards or derivatives such as options, futures contracts, or swap agreements. “Fixed Income Instruments” include bonds, debt securities and other similar instruments issued by various U.S. and non-U.S. public- or private-sector entities. The average portfolio duration of this Fund will normally vary from 2 years to 8 years based on PIMCO’s market forecasts. Duration is a measure used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates. The longer a security’s duration, the more sensitive it will be to changes in interest rates.

The Fund invests opportunistically in a broad spectrum of climate focused instruments and debt from issuers demonstrating leadership with respect to addressing climate related factors. Given the long term nature of the risks and opportunities presented by climate change and resource depletion, PIMCO may emphasize investment strategies that are more strategic, or long-term in nature, with less emphasis on short-term, tactical trading strategies.

The Fund’s investments ordinarily include labeled and unlabeled “green” bonds, as well as the debt of issuers demonstrating leadership in addressing risk and opportunities around climate related change. Labeled green bonds are those issues with proceeds specifically

PIMCO Funds | Prospectus 1

PIMCO Climate Bond Fund

earmarked to be used for climate and environmental projects. Labeled green bonds are often verified by a third party, which certifies that the bond will fund projects that include environmental benefits. Unlabeled green bonds or climate-aligned bonds are securities of climate-aligned issuers with use of proceeds for climate-related projects and initiatives, and may be issued without formal third party verifications or frameworks. When considering whether an issuer has demonstrated leadership in addressing risk and opportunities around climate related change, PIMCO may consider a variety of factors, such as whether an issuer provides low carbon solutions, has implemented or prepared a transition plan to a low carbon economy or such other factors that PIMCO may determine are relevant.

When considering an investment, PIMCO may utilize the following resources, among others, to evaluate climate related factors: PIMCO’s internal research and scoring process relating to climate factors, third party research and data providers, an issuer’s alignment with international commitments deemed relevant by PIMCO (such as the 2016 Paris Agreement on climate change), and/or information made available by the issuer, such as carbon emissions and intensity. In determining the efficacy of an issuer’s environmental practices, PIMCO will use its own proprietary assessments of material environmental and climate-oriented issues and may also reference standards as set forth by recognized global organizations, such as entities sponsored by the United Nations, and augment its assessments based on engagements with issuers regarding their environmental practices that have the potential to enhance risk-adjusted returns. The Fund may avoid investment in the securities of issuers whose business practices with respect to climate specific factors do not meet criteria determined by PIMCO. PIMCO’s activities in this respect may include, but are not limited to, direct dialogue with company management, such as through in-person meetings, phone calls, electronic communications and letters. The Fund has flexibility to invest in securities of issuers whose climate-related practices are weaker relative to certain peers or industry benchmarks, with the expectation that these practices may improve over time. The Fund may exclude those issuers that are not receptive to PIMCO’s engagement efforts, as determined in PIMCO’s sole discretion.

The Fund will not invest in the securities of any issuer determined by PIMCO to be engaged principally in the fossil fuel-related sectors, including distribution/retail, equipment and services, extraction and production, petrochemicals, pipelines and transportation and refining, and the production or distribution of coal and coal fired generation. The Fund may invest in the securities of issuers determined by PIMCO to be engaged principally in biofuel production or natural gas generation or sales and trading activities. Moreover, the Fund will not invest in the securities of any issuer determined by PIMCO to be engaged principally in the manufacture of alcoholic beverages, tobacco products or military equipment, the operation of gambling casinos, or in the production or distribution of adult entertainment materials. To the extent possible on the basis of information available to PIMCO, an issuer will be deemed to be principally engaged in an activity if it derives more than 10% of its gross revenues from such activities. The Fund may invest in labeled green, sustainability, social and sustainability-linked bonds from issuers involved in fossil fuel-related sectors. Labeled bonds are those issues

with proceeds specifically earmarked to be used for climate, environmental sustainability and/or social projects and, in the case of sustainability-linked bonds, bonds that include sustainability-linked covenants, as explained by the issuer through use of a framework and/or legal documentation. Labeled bonds are often verified by a third party, which certifies that the bond will or has been used to fund projects that include eligible benefits or, in the case of a sustainability-linked bond, that the bond includes sustainability-linked covenants.

The Fund may invest in up to 25% of its total assets in high yield securities (“junk bonds”), as rated by Moody’s Ratings (“Moody’s”), Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) or Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”), or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO (except such limitation shall not apply to the Fund’s investments in mortgage- and asset-backed securities). In the event that ratings and services assign different ratings to the same security, PIMCO will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security. The Fund may also invest without limitation in securities denominated in foreign currencies and in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers. In addition, the Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries (this limitation does not apply to investment grade sovereign debt denominated in the local currency with less than 1 year remaining to maturity, which means the Fund may invest in such instruments without limitation subject to any applicable legal or regulatory limitation). The Fund will normally limit its net foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 20% of its total assets. The Fund may also invest up to 10% of its total assets in preferred securities.

The Fund may invest, without limitation, in derivative instruments, such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements, or in mortgage- or asset-backed securities, subject to applicable law and any other restrictions described in the Fund’s prospectus or Statement of Additional Information. The Fund may invest in derivatives, such as credit default swaps, on indexes of securities which may include exposure to issuers that the Fund is not permitted to invest in directly. The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment basis and may engage in short sales. The Fund may also invest directly in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). The Fund may, without limitation, seek to obtain market exposure to the securities in which it primarily invests by entering into a series of purchase and sale contracts or by using other investment techniques (such as buy backs or dollar rolls).

Principal Risks

It is possible to lose money on an investment in the Fund. The principal risks of investing in the Fund, which could adversely affect its net asset value, yield and total return, are listed below.

Small Fund Risk: the risk that a smaller fund may not achieve investment or trading efficiencies or may be limited in ability to participate in certain investment opportunities due to its size.

2 Prospectus | PIMCO Funds

Prospectus

Additionally, a smaller fund may be more adversely affected by large purchases or redemptions by investors

Climate-Related Investing Risk: the risk that, because the Fund’s climate-related investment strategy may select or typically exclude securities of certain issuers for reasons in addition to performance, the Fund’s performance may differ from funds that do not utilize a climate-related investment strategy. Climate-related investing is qualitative and subjective by nature, and there is no guarantee that the factors utilized by PIMCO or any judgment exercised by PIMCO will reflect the opinions of any particular investor. The Fund also faces the risk that reliance on third-party data and ratings, which may be inconsistent, incomplete, or inaccurate, could lead to misaligned investments and adversely impact its performance and objectives

Interest Rate Risk: the risk that fixed income securities will fluctuate in value because of a change in interest rates; a fund with a longer average portfolio duration will be more sensitive to changes in interest rates than a fund with a shorter average portfolio duration. Factors such as government policy, inflation, the economy, and market for bonds can impact interest rates and yields

Call Risk: the risk that an issuer may exercise its right to redeem a fixed income security earlier than expected (a call). Issuers may call outstanding securities prior to their maturity for a number of reasons including declining interest rates, changes in credit spreads and improvements in the issuer’s credit quality. If an issuer calls a security that the Fund has invested in, the Fund may not recoup the full amount of its initial investment or may not realize the full anticipated earnings from the investment and may be forced to reinvest in lower-yielding securities, securities with greater credit risks or securities with other, less favorable features

Credit Risk: the risk that the Fund could experience losses if the issuer or guarantor of a fixed income security, or the counterparty to a derivative contract, or the issuer or guarantor of collateral, is unable or unwilling, or is perceived (whether by market participants, rating agencies, pricing services or otherwise) as unable or unwilling, to meet its financial obligations

High Yield Risk: the risk that high yield securities and unrated securities of similar credit quality (commonly known as “junk bonds”) are subject to greater levels of market, credit, call and liquidity risks. High yield securities are considered primarily speculative by rating agencies with respect to the issuer’s continuing ability to make principal and interest payments, and their values may be more volatile than higher-rated securities of similar maturity

Market Risk: the risk that the value of securities owned by the Fund may fluctuate, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to factors affecting securities markets generally or particular industries

Issuer Risk: the risk that the value of a security may decline for reasons related to the issuer, such as management performance, changes in financial condition or credit rating, financial leverage, reputation or reduced demand for the issuer’s goods or services

Liquidity Risk: the risk that a particular investment may be difficult to purchase or sell and that the Fund may be unable to sell investments at an advantageous time or price or achieve its desired level of exposure to a certain sector. Liquidity risk may result from the lack of an active market, reduced number and capacity of traditional market participants to make a market in fixed income securities, and may be magnified in a rising interest rate environment or other circumstances where investor redemptions from fixed income funds may be higher than normal, causing increased supply in the market due to selling activity

Derivatives Risk: the risk of investing in derivative instruments (such as forwards, futures, options, swaps and structured securities) and other similar investments, including leverage, liquidity, interest rate, market, counterparty (including credit), operational, legal and management risks, and valuation complexity. Changes in the value of a derivative or other similar investment may not correlate perfectly with, and may be more sensitive to market events than, the underlying asset, rate or index, and the Fund could lose more than the initial amount invested. Changes in the value of a derivative or other similar instrument may also create margin delivery or settlement payment obligations for the Fund. The Fund’s use of derivatives or other similar investments may result in losses to the Fund, a reduction in the Fund’s returns and/or increased volatility. Non-centrally-cleared over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivatives or other similar investments are also subject to the risk that a counterparty to the transaction will not fulfill its contractual obligations to the other party, as many of the protections afforded to centrally-cleared derivative transactions might not be available for non-centrally cleared OTC derivatives or other similar investments. The primary credit risk on derivatives or other similar investments that are exchange-traded or traded through a central clearing counterparty resides with the Fund's clearing broker or the clearinghouse. Changes in regulation relating to a registered fund’s use of derivatives and related instruments could potentially limit or impact the Fund’s ability to invest in derivatives, limit the Fund’s ability to employ certain strategies that use derivatives or other similar investments and/or adversely affect the value of derivatives or other similar investments and the Fund’s performance

Equity Risk: the risk that the value of equity or equity-related securities, such as common stocks and preferred securities, may decline due to general market conditions which are not specifically related to a particular company or to factors affecting a particular industry or industries. Equity or equity-related securities generally have greater price volatility than fixed income securities. In addition, preferred securities may be subject to greater credit risk or other risks, such as risks related to deferred and omitted distributions, limited voting rights, liquidity, interest rates, regulatory changes and special redemption rights

Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities Risk: the risks of investing in mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities, including interest rate risk, extension risk, prepayment risk and credit risk. The Fund may invest in any tranche of mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities, including junior and/or equity tranches (to the

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus 3

PIMCO Climate Bond Fund

extent consistent with the Fund’s guidelines), which generally carry higher levels of the foregoing risks

Foreign (Non-U.S.) Investment Risk: the risk that investing in foreign (non-U.S.) securities may result in the Fund experiencing more rapid and extreme changes in value than a fund that invests exclusively in securities of U.S. companies, due to smaller markets, differing reporting, accounting, corporate governance and auditing standards, increased risk of delayed settlement of portfolio transactions or loss of certificates of portfolio securities, and the risk of unfavorable U.S. or foreign government actions, including nationalization, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, currency blockage, political changes, diplomatic developments, trade restrictions (including tariffs) or the imposition of sanctions and other similar measures. Foreign securities may also be less liquid and more difficult to value than securities of U.S. issuers

Emerging Markets Risk: the risk of investing in emerging market securities, primarily increased foreign (non-U.S.) investment risk

Sovereign Debt Risk: the risk that investments in fixed income instruments issued by sovereign entities may decline in value as a result of default or other adverse credit event resulting from an issuer’s inability or unwillingness to make principal or interest payments in a timely fashion

Currency Risk: the risk that foreign (non-U.S.) currencies will change in value relative to the U.S. dollar and affect the Fund’s investments in foreign (non-U.S.) currencies or in securities that trade in, and receive revenues in, or in derivatives that provide exposure to, foreign (non-U.S.) currencies

Real Estate Risk: the risk that the Fund’s investments in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) or real estate-linked derivative instruments will subject the Fund to risks similar to those associated with direct ownership of real estate, including risks related to losses from casualty or condemnation, changes in local and general economic conditions, supply and demand, interest rates, zoning laws, regulatory limitations on rents, property taxes and operating expenses. The Fund’s investments in REITs or real estate-linked derivative instruments subject it to management and tax risks. In addition, REITs that are privately held or not traded on a national securities exchange may subject the Fund to liquidity and valuation risk

Leveraging Risk: the risk that certain transactions of the Fund, such as reverse repurchase agreements, loans of portfolio securities, and the use of when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment transactions, or derivative instruments, may give rise to leverage, magnifying gains and losses and causing the Fund to be more volatile than if it had not been leveraged. This means that leverage entails a heightened risk of loss. The use of leverage may also increase the Fund’s sensitivity to interest rate risks

connection with managing the Fund and may cause PIMCO to restrict or prohibit participation in certain investments. There is no guarantee that the investment objective of the Fund will be achieved

Short Exposure Risk: the risk of entering into short sales or other short positions, including the potential loss of more money than the actual cost of the investment, and the risk that the third party to the short sale or other short position will not fulfill its contractual obligations, causing a loss to the Fund

Please see “Description of Principal Risks” in the Fund's prospectus for a more detailed description of the risks of investing in the Fund. An investment in the Fund is not a deposit of a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.

constrained by management against an index. The average portfolio duration of this Fund will normally vary from (negative) 3 years to positive 8 years based on PIMCO’s market forecasts. Duration is a measure used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates. The longer a security’s duration, the more sensitive it will be to changes in interest rates.

The Fund may invest in both investment-grade securities and high yield securities (“junk bonds”) subject to a maximum of 40% of its total assets in securities rated below Baa by Moody’s Ratings (“Moody’s”), or equivalently rated by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) or Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”), or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality. In the even that ratings services assign different ratings to the same security, PIMCO will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security. The Fund may also invest without limitation in securities denominated in foreign currencies and in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers. In addition, the Fund may invest up to 50% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries (this limitation does not apply to investment grade sovereign debt denominated in the local currency with less than 1 year remaining to maturity, which means the Fund may invest in such instruments without limitation subject to any applicable legal or regulatory limitation). The Fund will normally limit its net foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 35% of its total assets. The Fund may also invest up to 10% of its total assets in preferred securities.

The primary credit risk on derivatives or other similar investments that are exchange-traded or traded through a central clearing counterparty resides with the Fund's clearing broker or the clearinghouse. Changes in regulation relating to a registered fund’s use of derivatives and related instruments could potentially limit or impact the Fund’s ability to invest in derivatives, limit the Fund’s ability to employ certain strategies that use derivatives or other similar investments and/or adversely affect the value of derivatives or other similar investments and the Fund’s performance

Collateralized Loan Obligations Risk: the risk that investing in collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) and other similarly structured investments exposes the Fund to heightened credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, market risk and prepayment and extension risk, as well as the risk of default on the underlying asset. In addition, investments in CLOs carry additional risks, including, but not limited to: (i) the possibility that distributions from collateral securities will not be adequate to make interest or other payments; (ii) the quality of the collateral may decline in value or default; (iii) risks related to the capability of the servicer of the securitized assets; (iv) the risk that the Fund may invest in tranches of CLOs that are subordinate to other tranches; (v) the structure and complexity of the transaction and the legal documents may not be fully understood at the time of investment and could lead to disputes with the issuer or among investors regarding the characterization of proceeds or unexpected investment results; and (vi) the CLO's manager may perform poorly

certificates of portfolio securities, and the risk of unfavorable U.S. or foreign government actions, including nationalization, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, currency blockage, political changes, diplomatic developments, trade restrictions (including tariffs) or the imposition of sanctions and other similar measures. Foreign securities may also be less liquid and more difficult to value than securities of U.S. issuers

Emerging Markets Risk: the risk of investing in emerging market securities, primarily increased foreign (non-U.S.) investment risk

Management Risk: the risk that the investment techniques and risk analyses applied by PIMCO will not produce the desired results and that actual or potential conflicts of interest, legislative, regulatory or tax restrictions, policies or developments may affect the investment techniques available to PIMCO and the individual portfolio managers in connection with managing the Fund and may cause PIMCO to restrict or prohibit participation in certain investments. There is no guarantee that the investment objective of the Fund will be achieved

Turnover Risk: the risk that high levels of portfolio turnover may increase transaction costs and taxes and may lower investment performance

Performance Information

The performance information shows summary performance information for the Fund in a bar chart and an Average Annual Total Returns table. The information provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing changes in its performance from year to year and by showing how the Fund’s average annual returns compare with the returns of certain indexes. Absent any applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations, performance would have been lower. The bar chart shows performance of the Fund’s Institutional Class shares. For periods prior to the inception date of I-3 shares (April 27, 2018), performance information shown in the table for that class is based on the performance of the Fund’s Institutional Class shares, adjusted to reflect the fees and expenses paid by that class of shares. Performance for Class A and Class C shares in the Average Annual Total Returns table reflects the impact of sales charges.The Fund’s past performance, before and after taxes, is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future.

In addition to the Fund’s performance, the Average Annual Total Returns table includes performance of: (i) a broad-based securities market index (i.e., a regulatory index) and (ii) a supplemental index. It is not possible to invest directly in an unmanaged index. The Fund’s regulatory index is the Bloomberg Global Aggregate (USD Hedged) Index. The Bloomberg Global Aggregate (USD Hedged) Index provides a broad-based measure of the global investment-grade fixed income markets. The three major components of this index are the U.S. Aggregate, the Pan-European Aggregate, and the Asian-Pacific Aggregate Indices. The index also includes Eurodollar and Euro-Yen corporate bonds, Canadian Government securities, and USD investment grade 144A securities. The supplemental index shown is the ICE BofA SOFR Overnight Rate Index. The ICE BofA SOFR Overnight Rate Index tracks the performance of a synthetic asset paying SOFR to a stated maturity. The index is based on the assumed purchase at par of a synthetic instrument having exactly its stated maturity and with a coupon equal to that day’s fixing rate. That issue is assumed to be sold the following business day (priced at a yield equal to the current day fixing rate) and rolled into a new instrument. SOFR (Secured Overnight Funding Rate) is an overnight rate (published in arrears) and was chosen by the Alternative Reference Rates Committee (“ARRC”) as the successor to the USD LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate). SOFR is secured (collateralized by Treasuries), calculated by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, and transactions based.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Fund invests primarily in investment grade debt securities, but may invest up to 10% of its total assets in high yield securities (“junk bonds”) that are rated B or higher by Moody’s Ratings (“Moody’s”), or equivalently rated by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) or Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”), or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality. In the event that ratings services assign different ratings to the same security, PIMCO will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security. The Fund may invest up to 30% of its total assets in securities denominated in foreign currencies, and may invest beyond this limit in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers. The Fund may invest up to 15% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries (this limitation does not apply to investment grade sovereign debt denominated in the local currency with less than 1 year remaining to maturity, which means the Fund may invest, together with any other investments denominated in foreign currencies, up to 30% of its total assets in such instruments). The Fund will normally limit its net foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 20% of its total assets.

restrictions described in the Fund’s prospectus or Statement of Additional Information. The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment basis and may engage in short sales. The Fund may, without limitation, seek to obtain market exposure to the securities in which it primarily invests by entering into a series of purchase and sale contracts or by using other investment techniques (such as buy backs or dollar rolls). The “total return” sought by the Fund consists of income earned on the Fund’s investments, plus capital appreciation, if any, which generally arises from decreases in interest rates, foreign currency appreciation, or improving credit fundamentals for a particular sector or security. The Fund may also invest up to 10% of its total assets in preferred securities.

Principal Risks

It is possible to lose money on an investment in the Fund. The principal risks of investing in the Fund, which could adversely affect its net asset value, yield and total return, are listed below.

Performance Information

In addition to the Fund’s performance, the Average Annual Total Returns table includes performance of: (i) a broad-based securities market index (i.e., a regulatory index) and (ii) a supplemental index. It is not possible to invest directly in an unmanaged index. The Fund’s regulatory index is the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Index. The Fund’s regulatory index is shown in connection with certain regulatory requirements to provide a broad measure of market performance. The Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Index represents securities that are SEC-registered, taxable, and dollar denominated. The index covers the U.S. investment grade fixed rate bond market, with index components for government and corporate securities, mortgage pass-through securities, and asset-backed securities. These major sectors are subdivided into more specific indices that are calculated and reported on a regular basis. The supplemental index shown is the FTSE STRIPS Index, 20+ Year Sub-Index. The FTSE STRIPS Index, 20+ Year Sub-Index represents a composition of outstanding Treasury Bonds and Notes with a maturity of at least twenty years. The index is rebalanced each month in accordance with underlying Treasury figures and profiles provided as of the previous month-end. The included STRIPS are derived only from bonds in the FTSE Bond Index, which include coupon strips with less than one year remaining to maturity.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its assets in a diversified portfolio of securities of varying maturities issued by the Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”) and of securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or government-sponsored enterprises, which may be represented by forwards or derivatives such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements. The Fund is neither sponsored by nor affiliated with GNMA. The average portfolio duration of this Fund normally varies from one to seven years based on PIMCO’s market forecasts. Duration is a measure used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates. The longer a security’s duration, the more sensitive it will be to changes in interest rates. The Fund may invest without limit in securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or government-sponsored enterprises. In addition, the Fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets in investment grade securities rated below Aaa by Moody’s Ratings (“Moody’s”), or equivalently rated by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) or Fitch Ratings, Inc.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its assets in a diversified portfolio of investment grade fixed income securities of varying maturities, which may be represented by forwards or derivatives such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements. Assets not invested in investment grade fixed income securities may be invested in other types of Fixed Income Instruments. “Fixed Income Instruments” include bonds, debt securities and other similar instruments issued by various U.S. and non-U.S. public- or private-sector entities. The average portfolio duration of this Fund normally varies within two years (plus or minus) of the portfolio duration of the securities comprising the Bloomberg U.S. Credit Index, as calculated by PIMCO, which as of May 31, 2025 was 6.39 years.

PIMCO Investment Grade Credit Bond Fund

Duration is a measure used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates. The longer a security’s duration, the more sensitive it will be to changes in interest rates.

The Fund invests primarily in investment grade debt securities, but may invest up to 15% of its total assets in high yield securities (“junk bonds”), as rated by Moody’s Ratings (“Moody’s”), Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) or Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”), or, if unrated, as determined by PIMCO. Investment grade debt securities are rated Baa or higher by Moody’s, or equivalently rated by S&P or Fitch, or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality. In the event that ratings services assign different ratings to the same security, PIMCO will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security. The Fund may invest up to 30% of its total assets in securities denominated in foreign currencies, and may invest beyond this limit in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries (this limitation does not apply to investment grade sovereign debt denominated in the local currency with less than 1 year remaining to maturity, which means the Fund may invest, together with any other investments denominated in foreign currencies, up to 30% of its total assets in such instruments). The Fund will normally limit its net foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 20% of its total assets.

The Fund may invest, without limitation, in derivative instruments, such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements, or in mortgage- or asset-backed securities, subject to applicable law and any other restrictions described in the Fund’s prospectus or Statement of Additional Information. The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment basis and may engage in short sales. The Fund may, without limitation, seek to obtain market exposure to the securities in which it primarily invests by entering into a series of purchase and sale contracts or by using other investment techniques (such as buy backs or dollar rolls).

result in losses to the Fund, a reduction in the Fund’s returns and/or increased volatility. Non-centrally-cleared over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivatives or other similar investments are also subject to the risk that a counterparty to the transaction will not fulfill its contractual obligations to the other party, as many of the protections afforded to centrally-cleared derivative transactions might not be available for non-centrally cleared OTC derivatives or other similar investments.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Fund invests primarily in investment grade debt securities, but may invest up to 10% of its total assets in high yield securities (“junk bonds”), as rated by Moody’s Ratings (“Moody’s”), Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) or Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”), or, if unrated, as determined by PIMCO. In the event that ratings services assign different ratings to the same security, PIMCO will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security. The Fund may invest up to 30% of its total assets in securities denominated in foreign currencies, and may invest beyond this limit in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers. The Fund may invest up to 15% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries (this limitation does not apply to investment grade sovereign debt denominated in the local currency with less than 1 year remaining to maturity, which means the Fund may invest, together with any other

investments denominated in foreign currencies, up to 30% of its total assets in such instruments). The Fund will normally limit its net foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 20% of its total assets.

The Fund may invest, without limitation, in derivative instruments, such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements, or in mortgage- or asset-backed securities, subject to applicable law and any other restrictions described in the Fund’s prospectus or Statement of Additional Information. The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment basis and may engage in short sales. The Fund may, without limitation, seek to obtain market exposure to the securities in which it primarily invests by entering into a series of purchase and sale contracts or by using other investment techniques (such as buy backs or dollar rolls). The “total return” sought by the Fund consists of income earned on the Fund’s investments, plus capital appreciation, if any, which generally arises from decreases in interest rates, foreign currency appreciation, or improving credit fundamentals for a particular sector or security. The Fund may also invest up to 10% of its total assets in preferred securities.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its assets in a diversified portfolio of fixed income securities that are issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or government-sponsored enterprises (“U.S. Government Securities”), which may be represented by forwards or derivatives such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements. Assets not invested in U.S. Government Securities may be invested in other types of Fixed Income Instruments. “Fixed Income Instruments” include bonds, debt securities and other similar instruments issued by various U.S. and non-U.S. public- or private-sector entities. While PIMCO may invest in derivatives at any time it deems appropriate, it will generally do so when it believes that U.S. Government Securities are overvalued relative to derivative instruments. This Fund will normally have a minimum average portfolio duration of eight years. Duration is a measure used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates. The longer a security’s duration, the more sensitive it will be to changes in interest rates. In addition, the dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of the Fund, under normal circumstances, is expected to be more than ten years.

The Fund’s investments in Fixed Income Instruments are limited to those of investment grade U.S. dollar-denominated securities of U.S. issuers that are rated at least A by Moody’s Ratings (“Moody’s”), or equivalently rated by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) or

PIMCO Funds | Prospectus 27

Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”), or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality. In addition, the Fund may only invest up to 10% of its total assets in securities rated A by Moody’s, or equivalently rated by S&P or Fitch, or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality and may only invest up to 25% of its total assets in securities rated Aa by Moody’s, or equivalently rated by S&P or Fitch or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality. In the event that ratings services assign different ratings to the same security, PIMCO will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security. For the avoidance of doubt, investments in securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or government-sponsored enterprises are not subject to these limits.

The Fund may invest, without limitation, in derivative instruments, such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements, or in mortgage- or asset-backed securities, subject to applicable law and any other restrictions described in the Fund’s prospectus or Statement of Additional Information. The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment basis and may engage in short sales.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its assets in a diversified portfolio of Fixed Income Instruments of varying maturities, which may be represented by forwards or derivatives such as options, futures contracts, or swap agreements. “Fixed Income Instruments” include bonds, debt securities and other similar instruments issued by various U.S. and non-U.S. public- or private-sector entities. The Fund intends to utilize various investment strategies in a broad array of fixed income sectors to achieve its investment objective. The “return” sought by the Fund generally consists of income earned on the Fund's investments, plus capital appreciation, if any. The Fund will not be constrained by management against an index. The average portfolio duration of this Fund will normally vary from zero to three years based on PIMCO’s market forecasts. Duration is a measure used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates. The longer a security’s duration, the more sensitive it will be to changes in interest rates.

The Fund may seek to manage capital gain distributions by, among other things, attempting to use losses from sales of securities that have declined in price to offset gains that would otherwise be taxable subject to maintenance of the portfolio investment strategy. However, such strategy may be unsuccessful or only partially successful and the Fund may realize taxable gains. For example, the Fund may realize taxable gains in order to satisfy cash redemption requests or when PIMCO believes the benefits of a transaction resulting in the realization of taxable gains outweigh tax considerations.

PIMCO Funds | Prospectus 31

The Fund may invest in both investment-grade securities and high yield securities (“junk bonds”) subject to a maximum of 20% of its total assets in securities rated below Baa by Moody’s Ratings (“Moody’s”), or equivalently rated by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) or Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”), or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality. In the event that ratings services assign different ratings to the same security, PIMCO will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security. The Fund may also invest without limitation in securities denominated in foreign currencies and in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers. The Fund may invest up to 30% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries (this limitation does not apply to investment grade sovereign debt denominated in the local currency with less than 1 year remaining to maturity, which means the Fund may invest in such instruments without limitation subject to any applicable legal or regulatory limitation). The Fund will normally limit its net foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 25% of its total assets. The Fund may also invest up to 10% of its total assets in preferred securities.

The Fund may invest in derivative instruments, such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements, or in mortgage- or asset-backed securities. The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment basis and may engage in short sales. The Fund may, without limitation, seek to obtain market exposure to the securities in which it primarily invests by entering into a series of purchase and sale contracts or by using other investment techniques (such as buy backs or dollar rolls).

Principal Risks

It is possible to lose money on an investment in the Fund. The principal risks of investing in the Fund, which could adversely affect its net asset value, yield and total return, are listed below.

The Fund may invest, without limitation, in derivative instruments, such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements, or in mortgage- or asset-backed securities, subject to applicable law and any other restrictions described in the Fund’s prospectus or Statement of Additional Information. The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment basis and may engage in short sales. The Fund may, without limitation, seek to obtain market exposure to the securities in which it primarily invests by entering into a series of purchase and sale contracts or by using other investment techniques (such as buy backs or dollar rolls). The “total return” sought by the Fund consists of income earned on the Fund’s investments, plus capital appreciation, if any, which generally arises from decreases in interest rates, foreign currency appreciation, or improving credit fundamentals for a particular sector or security. The Fund may also invest up to 10% of its total assets in preferred securities.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its assets in a portfolio of mortgage-related assets, including, but not limited to Agency residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) and private label residential and commercial MBS, and of Fixed Income Instruments, which may be represented by forwards or derivatives such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements. Agency MBS refers to MBS issued by government-sponsored enterprises, such as the Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA” or “Ginnie Mae”), the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) or the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). “Fixed Income Instruments” include bonds, debt securities and other similar instruments issued by various U.S. and non-U.S. public- or private-sector entities. The Fund will invest in a broad array of mortgage-related securities in seeking to generate consistent, absolute returns across full market cycles. The average portfolio duration of this Fund normally varies from 0 to 8 years based on PIMCO’s market forecasts. Duration is a measure used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates. The longer a security’s duration, the more sensitive it will be to changes in interest rates.

The Fund may invest up to 50% of its total assets in high yield securities (“junk bonds”), as rated by Moody’s Ratings (“Moody’s”), Standard & Poor’s Rating Services (“S&P”) or Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”), or, if unrated, as determined by PIMCO (except such limitation shall not apply

to the Fund’s investments in mortgage-related securities). In the event that ratings services assign different ratings to the same security, PIMCO will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security.

The Fund may invest, without limitation, in derivative instruments, such as options, futures contracts, options on futures, fixed income swap agreements, credit default swap agreements and other synthetic mortgage-related swap indices, or in mortgage- or asset-backed securities, subject to applicable law and any other restrictions described in the Fund’s prospectus or Statement of Additional Information. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets in any combination of mortgage-related or other asset-backed interest-only (“IO”), principal-only (“PO”), or inverse floating rate debt (“inverse floater”) securities. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets in mortgage- or real estate-related equity instruments, including preferred securities, common stock, convertible securities and other equity-related instruments. The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment basis and may engage in short sales. The Fund may, without limitation, seek to obtain market exposure to the securities in which it primarily invests by entering into a series of purchase and sale contracts or by using other investment techniques (such as buy backs or dollar rolls). The “total return” sought by the Fund consists of income earned on the Fund’s investments, plus capital appreciation, if any, which generally arises from decreases in interest rates or improving credit fundamentals for a particular sector or security.

Principal Risks

It is possible to lose money on an investment in the Fund. The principal risks of investing in the Fund, which could adversely affect its net asset value, yield and total return, are listed below.

Market Risk: the risk that the value of securities owned by the Fund may fluctuate, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to factors affecting securities markets generally or particular industries

40 Prospectus | PIMCO Funds

Prospectus

Extension Risk: the risk that, in periods of rising interest rates, issuers of mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities may pay principal later than expected, which may reduce the value of the Fund’s investment in such securities and may prevent the Fund from receiving higher interest rates on proceeds reinvested

Prepayment Risk: the risk that, in periods of declining interest rates, issuers of mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities may pay principal more quickly than expected, which results in the Fund foregoing future interest income on the portion of the principal repaid early and may result in the Fund being forced to reinvest investment proceeds at lower interest rates

Privately Issued Mortgage-Related Securities Risk: the risk of non-payment because there are no direct or indirect government or agency guarantees of payments in the pools created by non-governmental issuers

Real Estate Risk: the risk that the Fund’s investments in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) or real estate-linked derivative instruments

will subject the Fund to risks similar to those associated with direct ownership of real estate, including risks related to losses from casualty or condemnation, changes in local and general economic conditions, supply and demand, interest rates, zoning laws, regulatory limitations on rents, property taxes and operating expenses. The Fund’s investments in REITs or real estate-linked derivative instruments subject it to management and tax risks. In addition, REITs that are privately held or not traded on a national securities exchange may subject the Fund to liquidity and valuation risk

Convertible Securities Risk: as convertible securities share both fixed income and equity characteristics, they are subject to risks to which fixed income and equity investments are subject. These risks include equity risk, interest rate risk and credit risk

Distribution Rate Risk: the risk that the Fund’s distribution rate may change unexpectedly as a result of numerous factors, including changes in realized and projected market returns, fluctuations in market interest rates, Fund performance and other factors

Turnover Risk: the risk that high levels of portfolio turnover may increase transaction costs and taxes and may lower investment performance

Performance Information

The performance information shows summary performance information for the Fund in a bar chart and an Average Annual Total Returns table. The information provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing changes in its performance from year to year and by showing how the Fund’s average annual returns compare with the returns of certain indexes. Absent any applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations, performance would have been lower. The bar chart shows performance of the Fund’s Institutional Class shares. For periods prior to the inception date of I-3 shares (April 27, 2018), performance information shown in the table for that class is based on the performance of the Fund’s Institutional Class shares, adjusted to reflect the fees and expenses paid by that class of shares. Performance for Class A and Class C shares in the Average Annual Total Returns table reflects the impact of sales charges. The Fund’s past performance, before and after taxes, is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future.

In addition to the Fund’s performance, the Average Annual Total Returns table includes performance of: (i) a broad-based securities market index (i.e., a regulatory index) and (ii) a supplemental index. It is not possible to invest directly in an unmanaged index. The Fund’s regulatory index is the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Index. The Fund’s regulatory index is shown in connection with certain regulatory requirements to provide a broad measure of market performance. The Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Index represents securities that are SEC-registered, taxable, and dollar denominated. The index covers the U.S. investment grade fixed rate bond market, with index components for government and corporate securities, mortgage pass-through securities, and asset-backed securities. These major sectors are subdivided into more specific indices that are calculated and reported on a regular basis. The supplemental index shown is the ICE BofA SOFR Overnight Rate Index. The ICE BofA SOFR Overnight Rate Index tracks the performance of a synthetic asset paying SOFR to a stated maturity. The index is based on the assumed purchase at par of a synthetic instrument having exactly its stated maturity and with a coupon equal to that day’s fixing rate. That issue is assumed to be sold the following business day (priced at a yield equal to the current day fixing rate) and rolled into a new instrument. SOFR (Secured Overnight Funding Rate) is an overnight rate (published in arrears) and was chosen by the Alternative Reference Rates Committee (“ARRC”) as the successor to the USD LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate). SOFR is secured (collateralized by Treasuries), calculated by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, and transactions based.

(“Fitch”), or, if unrated, as determined by PIMCO. In the event that ratings services assign different ratings to the same security, PIMCO will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security. The Fund may invest up to 30% of its total assets in securities denominated in foreign currencies, and may invest beyond this limit in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers. The Fund may invest up to 15% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries (this limitation does not apply to investment grade sovereign debt denominated in the local currency with less than 1 year remaining to maturity, which means the Fund may invest, together with any other investments denominated in foreign currencies, up to 30% of its total assets in such instruments). The Fund will normally limit its net foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 20% of its total assets.

Excluding interest expense, Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses are 0.50% and 0.60% for Institutional Class and I-2 shares, respectively. Interest expense is calculated and presented equally across all share classes. As a result, Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses may not match the Ratio of Expenses to Average Net Assets for certain share classes, as set forth in the Financial Highlights table of the Fund’s prospectus, because the Ratio of Expenses to Average Net Assets is calculated based on the average net assets of the applicable share class.

Example. The Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in Institutional Class or Class A shares of the Fund with the costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the noted class of shares for the time periods indicated, and then hold or redeem all your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

Principal Investment Strategies

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its net assets in a diversified portfolio of Fixed Income Instruments of varying maturities. “Fixed Income Instruments” include bonds, debt securities and other similar instruments issued by various U.S. and non-U.S. public- or private-sector entities. The average portfolio duration of this Fund normally varies within one and a half years (plus or minus) of the portfolio duration of the securities comprising the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Index, as calculated by PIMCO, which as of May 31, 2025 was 5.88 years. Duration is a measure used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates. The longer a security’s duration, the more sensitive it will be to changes in interest rates.

The Fund may invest without limitation in the core sectors of the bond market including government bonds, mortgage bonds and corporate bonds and will generally seek to maintain positive exposure to these sectors. The Fund may invest only in investment grade securities of issuers that are rated at least Baa by Moody’s Ratings, (“Moody’s”), or equivalently rated by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) or Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”), or if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality. In the event that ratings services assign different ratings to the same security, PIMCO will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security. The Fund may invest up to 15% of its total assets in securities denominated in foreign currencies, and may invest beyond this limit in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers, although the Fund will normally limit its net foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 5% of its total assets. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries (this limitation does not apply to investment grade sovereign debt denominated in the local currency with less than 1 year remaining to maturity, which means the Fund may invest, together with any other investments denominated in foreign currencies, up to 15% of its total assets in such instruments).

The Fund may invest in certain derivative instruments, such as futures contracts or swap agreements, or in mortgage- or asset-backed securities, subject to applicable law and any other restrictions described

PIMCO Total Return Fund IV

in the Fund’s prospectus or Statement of Additional Information. The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment basis and may engage in short sales, including short exposures obtained using derivative instruments, up to 10% of its total assets. The Fund may, without limitation, seek to obtain market exposure to the securities in which it primarily invests by entering into a series of purchase and sale contracts or by using other investment techniques (such as buy backs or dollar rolls). The “total return” sought by the Fund consists of income earned on the Fund’s investments, plus capital appreciation, if any, which generally arises from decreases in interest rates, foreign currency appreciation, or improving credit fundamentals for a particular sector or security. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets in preferred securities, convertible securities and other equity-related securities, although the Fund will not invest in common stock.

In addition, the Fund will not invest in the securities of any non-governmental issuer known to (1) derive gross revenue from the production, direction or publication of adult entertainment materials, as well as those known to be directly engaged in the business of distributing and retailing such materials, (2) provide abortions or manufacture abortifacients (and entities that own or are owned thereby), (3) manufacture products intended for contraception, (4) engage in certain types of stem cell research (including the use of embryonic or fetal stem cells to develop products), or (5) produce and/or retail cannabis for recreational use, each of the foregoing generally as determined by a third-party data provider and reported to PIMCO. In analyzing whether an issuer meets any of the criteria described in the foregoing sentence, PIMCO intends to predominantly rely upon, among other things, information provided by an independent third party, including research and screens employed for certain values-based or Catholic institutions such as the MSCI Catholic Values Screening Methodology and related research. Please see the Additional Information Regarding Certain Screens Used by the Fund section of the prospectus for additional information, including a description of the methodologies that may be used to determine whether a non-governmental issuer is known to be engaged in an activity.

Notwithstanding the restrictions set forth above, the Fund can invest in the securities of any issuer determined by PIMCO to be engaged principally in biofuel production or natural gas generation or sales and trading activities. The Fund may also invest in labeled green, sustainability, social and sustainability-linked bonds from issuers involved in fossil fuel-related sectors. Labeled bonds are those issues with proceeds specifically earmarked to be used for climate (often referred to as “green bonds”), environmental sustainability and/or social projects and, in the case of sustainability-linked bonds, bonds that include sustainability-linked covenants, as explained by the issuer through use of a framework and/or legal documentation. Labeled bonds are often verified by a third party, which certifies that a bond will or has been used to fund projects that include eligible benefits or, in the case of sustainability-linked bonds, that the bond includes sustainability-linked covenants.

also reference standards as set forth by recognized global organizations such as entities sponsored by the United Nations, and augment its assessments based on engagements with issuers regarding their ESG practices that have the potential to enhance risk-adjusted returns. PIMCO’s activities in this respect may include, but are not limited to, direct dialogue with company management, such as through in-person meetings, phone calls, electronic communications, and letters. The Fund may invest in securities of issuers whose ESG practices are weaker relative to certain peers or industry benchmarks, with the expectation that these practices may improve over time. It may also exclude those issuers that are not receptive to PIMCO’s engagement efforts, as determined in PIMCO’s sole discretion.

The Fund invests primarily in investment grade securities, but may invest up to 20% of its total assets in high yield securities (“junk bonds”), as rated by Moody’s Ratings (“Moody’s”), Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) or Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”), or, if unrated, as determined by PIMCO (except such 20% limitation shall not apply to the Fund's investments in mortgage- and asset-backed securities). In the event that ratings services assign different ratings to the same security, PIMCO will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security. The Fund may invest up to 30% of its total assets in securities denominated in foreign currencies, and may invest beyond this limit in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers. The Fund may invest up to 15% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries (this limitation does not apply to investment grade sovereign debt denominated in the local currency with less than 1 year remaining to maturity, which means the Fund may invest, together with any other investments denominated in foreign currencies, up to 30% of its total assets in such instruments).

The Fund may invest, without limitation, in derivative instruments, such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements, or in mortgage- or asset-backed securities (issuers of which generally will not be treated as subject to the non-governmental issuer screens described herein), subject to applicable law and any other restrictions described in the Fund’s prospectus or Statement of Additional Information. The Fund may invest in derivatives, such as credit default swaps, on indexes of securities which may include exposure to issuers that the Fund is not permitted to invest in directly.

Principal Risks

It is possible to lose money on an investment in the Fund. The principal risks of investing in the Fund, which could adversely affect its net asset value, yield and total return, are listed below.

New Fund Risk: the risk that a new fund’s performance may not represent how the fund is expected to or may perform in the long term. In addition, new funds have limited operating histories for investors to evaluate and new funds may not attract sufficient assets to achieve investment and trading efficiencies

Market Risk: the risk that the value of securities owned by the Fund may fluctuate, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to factors affecting securities markets generally or particular industries

Issuer Risk: the risk that the value of a security may decline for reasons related to the issuer, such as management performance, changes in

financial condition or credit rating, financial leverage, reputation or reduced demand for the issuer’s goods or services

risk. The Fund may invest in any tranche of mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities, including junior and/or equity tranches (to the extent consistent with the Fund’s guidelines), which generally carry higher levels of the foregoing risks

Emerging Markets Risk: the risk of investing in emerging market securities, primarily increased foreign (non-U.S.) investment risk

heightened risk of loss. The use of leverage may also increase the Fund’s sensitivity to interest rate risks

Environmental, Social and Governance and Faith-Based Values Investing Risk: the risk that, because the Fund’s ESG and faith-based values investing strategy may select or typically exclude securities of certain issuers for reasons in addition to performance, the Fund’s performance may differ from funds that do not utilize an ESG and faith-based values investing strategy. ESG and faith-based values investing is qualitative and subjective by nature, and there is no guarantee that the factors utilized by PIMCO or any judgment exercised by PIMCO will reflect the opinions of any particular investor. The Fund also faces the risk that reliance on third-party data and ratings, which may be inconsistent, incomplete, or inaccurate, could lead to misaligned investments and adversely impact its performance and objectives

Turnover Risk: the risk that high levels of portfolio turnover may increase transaction costs and taxes and may lower investment performance

Performance Information

The performance information shows summary performance information for the Fund in a bar chart and an Average Annual Total Returns table. The information provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing changes in its performance from year to year and by showing how the Fund’s average annual returns compare with the returns of a broad-based securities market index (i.e. a regulatory index). Absent any applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations, performance would have been lower. The bar chart shows performance of the Fund’s Institutional Class shares. For periods prior to the inception date of the Class A shares (February 3, 2020) and Class C shares (February 3, 2020), performance information shown in the table for those classes is based on the performance of the Fund's Institutional Class shares, adjusted to reflect the fees and expenses paid by those classes of shares. Performance for Class A and Class C shares in the Average Annual Total Returns table reflects the impact of sales charges. Because I-3 shares of the Fund had not commenced operations as of December 31, 2021, no performance for I-3 shares is provided. The Fund’s past performance, before and after taxes, is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future.

Description of Principal Risks

The value of your investment in a Fund changes with the values of that Fund’s investments. Many factors can affect those values. The factors that are most likely to have a material effect on a particular Fund’s portfolio as a whole are called “principal risks.” The principal risks of each Fund are identified in the Fund Summaries and are described in this section. Each Fund may be subject to additional risks other than those identified and described below because the types of investments made by a Fund can change over time. Securities and investment techniques mentioned in this summary that appear in bold type are described in greater detail under “Characteristics and Risks of Securities and Investment Techniques.” That section and “Investment Objectives and Policies” in the Statement of Additional Information (the “SAI”) also include more information about the Funds, their investments and the related risks. There is no guarantee that a Fund will be able to achieve its investment objective. It is possible to lose money by investing in a Fund.

New Fund Risk

A new Fund’s performance may not represent how the Fund is expected to or may perform in the long term if and when it becomes larger and has fully implemented its investment strategies. Investment positions may have a disproportionate impact (negative or positive) on performance in new Funds. New Funds may also require a period of time before they are fully invested in securities that meet their investment objectives and policies and achieve a representative portfolio composition. Fund performance may be lower or higher during this “ramp-up” period, and may also be more volatile, than would be the case after the Fund is fully invested. Similarly, a new Fund’s investment strategy may require a longer period of time to show returns that are representative of the strategy. New Funds have limited performance histories for investors to evaluate and new Funds may not attract sufficient assets to achieve investment and trading efficiencies. If a new Fund were to fail to successfully implement its investment strategies or achieve its investment objective, performance may be negatively impacted, and any resulting liquidation could create negative transaction costs for the Fund and tax consequences for investors.

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus 69

PIMCO Funds

Small Fund Risk

A smaller fund may not grow to or maintain an economically viable size to achieve investment or trading efficiencies or may be limited in ability to participate in certain investment opportunities due to its size, which may negatively impact performance and/or force the fund to liquidate. Additionally, a smaller fund may be more adversely affected by large purchases or redemptions by investors, which can occur at any time and may impact the fund in the same manner as a high volume of purchases or redemptions.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that fixed income securities and other instruments in a Fund’s portfolio will fluctuate in value because of a change in interest rates. Factors including central bank monetary policy, rising inflation rates, and changes in general economic conditions may cause interest rates to rise, which could cause the value of a Fund’s investments to decline. For example, as nominal interest rates rise, the value of certain securities held by a Fund is likely to decrease. A nominal interest rate can be described as the sum of a real interest rate and an expected inflation rate. Interest rate changes can be sudden and unpredictable, and a Fund may experience losses as a result of movements in interest rates. A Fund may not be able to hedge against changes in interest rates or may choose not to do so for cost or other reasons. In addition, any hedges may not work as intended.

Fixed income securities with longer durations tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities with shorter durations. The values of equity and other non-fixed income securities may also decline due to fluctuations in interest rates. Inflation-indexed bonds, including Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (“TIPS”), decline in value when real interest rates rise. In certain interest rate environments, such as when real interest rates are rising faster than nominal interest rates, inflation-indexed bonds may experience greater losses than other fixed income securities with similar durations.

Dividend-paying equity securities, particularly those whose market price is closely related to their yield, may be more sensitive to changes in interest rates. During periods of rising interest rates, the values of such securities may decline and may result in losses to the Fund.

Variable and floating rate securities generally are less sensitive to interest rate changes but may decline in value if their interest rates do not rise as much, or as quickly, as interest rates in general. Conversely, floating rate securities will not generally increase in value if interest rates decline. Inverse floating rate securities may decrease in value due to changes in interest rates. Inverse floating rate securities may also exhibit greater price volatility than a fixed rate obligation with similar credit quality. When a Fund holds variable or floating rate securities, a decrease (or, in the case of inverse floating rate securities, an increase) in market interest rates will adversely affect the income received from such securities and the net asset value (“NAV”) of the Fund’s shares.

A wide variety of factors can cause interest rates or yields of U.S. Treasury securities (or yields of other types of bonds) to rise, including but not limited to central bank monetary policies, changing inflation or real growth rates, general economic conditions, increasing bond issuances or reduced market demand for low yielding investments. Risks associated with changes in interest rates are heightened under certain market conditions, such as during times when the U.S. Federal Reserve (the “Federal Reserve”) raises interest rates or when such rates remain elevated following a period of historically low levels. Additionally, the U.S. and other governments have increased, and are likely to continue increasing, their debt issuances, which may also heighten these risks. There is the risk that the income generated by investments may not keep pace with inflation. Actions by governments and central banking authorities can result in increases or decreases in interest rates. Periods of higher inflation could cause such authorities to raise interest rates, which may adversely affect a Fund and its investments. In addition, changes in monetary policy may exacerbate the risks associated with changing interest rates. Further, in market environments where interest rates are rising, issuers may be less willing or able to make principal and interest payments on fixed income investments when due.

Rising interest rates may result in a decline in value of a Fund’s fixed income investments and in periods of volatility. Further, while U.S. bond markets have steadily grown over the past three decades, dealer “market making” ability has remained relatively stagnant. As a result, dealer inventories of certain types of bonds and similar instruments, which provide a core indication of the ability of financial intermediaries to “make markets,” are at or near historic lows in relation to market size. Because market makers provide stability to a market through their intermediary services, the significant reduction in dealer inventories could potentially lead to decreased liquidity and increased volatility in the fixed income markets. Such issues may be exacerbated during periods of economic uncertainty. All of these factors, collectively and/or individually, could cause a Fund to lose value.

During periods of very low or negative interest rates, a Fund may be unable to maintain positive returns. Certain European countries have previously experienced negative interest rates on certain fixed income instruments. Very low or negative interest rates may magnify interest rate risk. Changing interest rates, including rates that fall below zero, may have unpredictable effects on markets, may result in heightened market volatility and may detract from a Fund’s performance to the extent a Fund is exposed to such interest rates.

Measures such as average duration may not accurately reflect the true interest rate sensitivity of a Fund. This is especially the case if a Fund consists of securities with widely varying durations. Therefore, if a Fund has an average duration that suggests a certain level of interest rate risk, a Fund may in fact be subject to greater interest rate risk than the average would suggest. This risk is greater to the extent a Fund uses leverage or derivatives in connection with the management of a Fund.

Convexity is an additional measure used to understand a security’s or a Fund‘s interest rate sensitivity. Convexity measures the rate of change of duration in response to changes in interest rates. With respect to a security’s price, a larger convexity (positive or negative) may imply more dramatic price changes in response to changing interest rates. Convexity may be positive or negative. Negative convexity implies that interest rate increases result in increased duration, and vice versa, meaning increased sensitivity in prices in response to changes in interest rates. Thus, securities with negative convexity, which may include bonds with traditional call features and certain mortgage-backed securities, may experience greater losses in periods of rising interest rates. Accordingly, if a Fund holds such securities, a Fund may be subject to a greater risk of losses in periods of rising interest rates.

Call Risk

Call risk refers to the possibility that an issuer may exercise its right to redeem a fixed income security earlier than expected (a call). Issuers may call outstanding securities prior to their maturity for a number of reasons (e.g., declining interest rates, changes in credit spreads and improvements in the issuer’s credit quality). If an issuer calls a security in which a Fund has invested, a Fund may not recoup the full amount of its initial investment or may not realize the full anticipated earnings from the investment and may be forced to reinvest in lower-yielding securities, securities with greater credit risks or securities with other, less favorable features.

Credit Risk

A Fund could experience losses if the issuer or guarantor of a fixed income security (including a security purchased with securities lending collateral), the counterparty to a derivatives contract or a repurchase agreement, a borrower of portfolio securities, or the issuer or guarantor of collateral, is unable or unwilling, or is perceived (whether by market participants, rating agencies, pricing services or otherwise) as unable or unwilling, to make timely principal and/or interest payments, or to otherwise honor its obligations. The risk that such issuer, guarantor or counterparty is less willing or able to do so is heightened in market environments where interest rates are changing, notably when rates are rising. The downgrade of the credit rating of a security or of the issuer of a security held by a Fund may decrease its value. Securities are subject to varying degrees of credit risk, which are often reflected in credit ratings. Measures such as average credit quality may not accurately reflect the true credit risk of a Fund. This is especially the case if a Fund consists of securities with widely varying credit ratings. Therefore, if a Fund has an average credit rating that suggests a certain credit quality, a Fund may in fact be subject to greater credit risk than the average would suggest. Credit risk is greater to the extent a Fund uses leverage or derivatives in connection with the management of a Fund, which would be magnified in the event that initial or variation margin is not provided by the counterparty to such transaction (or not provided below a certain threshold amount). Municipal bonds are subject to the risk that litigation, legislation or other political events, local business or economic conditions, or the bankruptcy of the issuer could have a significant effect on an issuer’s ability to make payments of principal and/or interest. Debt instruments backed by an issuer's taxing authority may be subject to legal limits on the issuer's power to increase taxes or otherwise to raise revenue or may be dependent on legislative appropriation or government aid. Certain debt instruments are backed only by revenues derived from a particular project or source, rather than by an issuer's taxing authority, and thus may have a greater risk of default. Rising or high interest rates may deteriorate the credit quality of an issuer or a counterparty, particularly if an issuer or a counterparty faces challenges rolling or refinancing its obligations. A Fund’s investments may be adversely affected if any of the issuers it is invested in are subject to an actual or perceived (whether by market participants, rating agencies, pricing services or otherwise) deterioration to their credit quality.

Credit risk includes credit spread risk, which is the risk that credit spreads (i.e., the difference in yield between securities that is due to differences in their actual or perceived credit quality) may increase when the market believes that investments generally have a greater risk of default. Increasing credit spreads may reduce the market values of a Fund’s investments. Credit spreads often increase more for lower rated and unrated securities than for investment grade securities. In addition, when credit spreads increase, reductions in market value will generally be greater for longer-maturity securities. Further, credit spread duration (a measure of credit spread risk) can vary significantly from interest rate duration (e.g., for floating rate debt securities, credit spread duration typically will be higher than interest rate duration). A Fund may add credit spread duration to its portfolio, for example through the use of derivatives (e.g., credit default swaps), even while it has lower interest rate duration. The credit spread duration of a Fund may vary, in some cases significantly, from its interest rate duration.

High Yield Risk

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus 71

PIMCO Funds

imputed income without receiving the actual cash currency. Issuers of high yield securities may have the right to “call” or redeem the issue prior to maturity, which may result in a Fund having to reinvest the proceeds in other high yield securities or similar instruments that may pay lower interest rates. A Fund may also be subject to greater levels of liquidity risk than funds that do not invest in high yield securities. In addition, the high yield securities in which a Fund invests may not be listed on any exchange and a secondary market for such securities may be comparatively illiquid relative to markets for other more liquid fixed income securities. Consequently, transactions in high yield securities may involve greater costs than transactions in more actively traded securities. A lack of publicly available information, irregular trading activity and wide bid/ask spreads among other factors, may, in certain circumstances, make high yield debt more difficult to sell at an advantageous time or price than other types of securities or instruments. These factors may result in a Fund being unable to realize full value for these securities and/or may result in a Fund not receiving the proceeds from a sale of a high yield security for an extended period after such sale, each of which could result in losses to a Fund. In addition, adverse publicity and investor perceptions, whether or not based on fundamental analysis, may decrease the values and liquidity of high yield securities, especially in thinly traded markets. When secondary markets for high yield securities are less liquid than the market for other types of securities, it may be more difficult to value the securities because such valuation may require more research, and elements of judgment may play a greater role in the valuation because there is less reliable, objective data available. Because of the risks involved in investing in high yield securities, an investment in a Fund that invests in such securities should be considered speculative.

Market Risk

The market price of securities owned by a Fund may fluctuate, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably. Securities may decline in value due to factors affecting securities markets generally or particular industries or issuers represented in the securities markets. The value of a security may decline due to general market conditions that are not specifically related to a particular company, such as real or perceived adverse economic conditions, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in inflation, interest or currency rates, adverse changes to credit markets or adverse investor sentiment generally. The value of a security may also decline due to factors that affect a particular industry or industries, such as labor shortages or increased production costs and competitive conditions within an industry. During a general downturn in the securities markets, multiple asset classes may decline in value simultaneously even if the performance of those asset classes is not otherwise historically correlated. Investments may also be negatively impacted by market disruptions and by attempts by other market participants to manipulate the prices of particular investments. Equity securities generally have greater price volatility than fixed income securities. Credit ratings downgrades may also negatively affect securities held by a Fund. Even when markets perform well, there is no assurance that the investments held by a Fund will increase in value along with the broader market.

In addition, market risk includes the risk that geopolitical and other events will disrupt the economy on a national or global level. For instance, actual or threatened war or armed conflicts, terrorism, social unrest, recessions, supply chain disruptions, market manipulation, government defaults, government shutdowns, political and regulatory changes, diplomatic developments or the imposition of sanctions and other similar measures, including the imposition of tariffs, or other U.S. economic policies and any related public health emergencies (such as the spread of infectious diseases, pandemics and epidemics) and natural/environmental disasters can all negatively impact the securities markets, which could cause a Fund to lose value. These events could reduce consumer demand or economic output, result in market closures, changes in interest rates, inflation/deflation, travel restrictions or quarantines, and significantly adversely impact the economy.

As computing technology and data analytics advance, there has been a trend towards machine driven and artificially intelligent trading systems, particularly with respect to increasing levels of autonomy in trading decision capabilities. Regulators of financial markets have become increasingly focused on the potential impact of artificial intelligence on investment activities and may issue regulations that affect the use of artificial technology in trading activities. Any such regulations may not have the effect on financial markets that regulators intend. Moreover, advancements in artificial intelligence and other technologies may result in the introduction of errors, defects or security vulnerabilities, which can go undetected. The potential speed of such trading and other technologies may exacerbate the impact of any such incidents, particularly where such incidents are exploited by other artificially intelligent systems designed to impair or prevent the intervention of human control.

The domestic political environment, as well as political and diplomatic events within the United States and abroad, or the U.S. government’s inability at times to agree on a long-term budget and deficit reduction plan, has resulted, and may in the future result, in a government shutdown or otherwise adversely affect the U.S. regulatory landscape, the general market environment and/or investor sentiment, which could have an adverse impact on a Fund’s investments and operations. Additional and/or prolonged U.S. federal government shutdowns may affect investor and consumer confidence and may adversely impact financial markets and the broader economy, perhaps suddenly and to a significant degree. Governmental and quasi-governmental authorities and regulators throughout the world have previously responded to serious economic disruptions with a variety of significant fiscal and monetary policy changes, including but not limited to, direct capital infusions into companies, new monetary programs and dramatically lower interest rates. An unexpected or sudden reversal of these policies, or the ineffectiveness of these policies, could increase volatility in securities markets, which could adversely affect a Fund’s investments. Any market disruptions could also prevent a Fund from executing advantageous investment decisions in a timely manner. Funds that have focused their investments on a region enduring geopolitical market disruption will face

higher risks of loss, although the increasing interconnectivity between global economies and financial markets can lead to events or conditions in one country, region or financial market adversely impacting a different country, region or financial market. Thus, investors should closely monitor current market conditions to determine whether a Fund meets its individual financial needs and tolerance for risk.

When inflationary price movements occur, fixed income securities markets may experience heightened levels of interest rate, volatility and liquidity risk. Interest rate increases in the future could cause the value of a Fund that invests in fixed income securities to decrease, which could force a Fund to liquidate investments at disadvantageous times or prices, therefore adversely affecting a Fund and its shareholders.

Higher interest rates generally lower the values of real estate-related assets. When this does not occur as expected, it presents an increased risk of a correction or severe downturn in real estate-related asset prices, which could adversely impact the value of other investments as well, such as loans, securitized debt and other fixed income securities. Such an impact could materialize in one real estate sector and not another, or in a different manner in different real estate sectors. Examples of the risks faced by real estate-related assets include: tenant vacancy rates, increased tenant turnover and tenant concentration; general real estate headwinds, including delinquencies and difficulties in collecting rents and other payments (which increases the risk of owners being unable to pay or otherwise defaulting on their own borrowings and obligations); decreases in property values; increases in inflation, upkeep costs and other expenses; fluctuations in rents; and increased concentration in ownership of certain types of properties.

Exchanges and securities markets may close early, close late or issue trading halts on specific securities or generally, which may result in, among other things, a Fund being unable to buy or sell certain securities or financial instruments at an advantageous time or accurately price its portfolio investments. In addition, a Fund may rely on various third-party sources to calculate its NAV. As a result, a Fund is subject to certain operational risks associated with reliance on service providers and service providers’ data sources. In particular, errors or systems failures and other technological issues may adversely impact a Fund’s calculation of its NAV, and such NAV calculation issues may result in inaccurately calculated NAV, delays in NAV calculation and/or the inability to calculate NAVs over extended periods. A Fund may be unable to recover any losses associated with such failures.

Issuer Risk

The value of a security may decline for reasons related to the issuer, such as management performance, major litigation, investigations or other controversies, changes in the issuer’s financial condition or credit rating, changes in government regulations affecting the issuer or its competitive environment and strategic initiatives such as mergers, acquisitions or dispositions and the market response to any such initiatives, financial leverage, reputation or reduced demand for the issuer’s goods or services, as well as the historical and prospective earnings of the issuer and the value of its assets. A change in the financial condition of a single issuer may affect one or more other issuers or securities markets as a whole. These risks can apply to a Fund and to the issuers of securities and other instruments in which a Fund invests.

Liquidity Risk

The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) defines liquidity risk as the risk that a Fund could not meet requests to redeem shares issued by a Fund without significant dilution of remaining investors’ interests in a Fund. Liquidity risk exists when particular investments are difficult to purchase or sell. Illiquid investments are investments that a Fund reasonably expects cannot be sold or disposed of in current market conditions in seven calendar days or less without the sale or disposition significantly changing the market value of the investment. Illiquid investments may become harder to value, especially in changing markets. A Fund’s investments in illiquid investments may reduce the returns of a Fund because it may be unable to sell the illiquid investments at an advantageous time or price or possibly require a Fund to dispose of other investments at unfavorable times or prices in order to satisfy its obligations, which could prevent a Fund from taking advantage of other investment opportunities. Illiquidity can be caused by, among other things, a drop in overall market trading volume, an inability to find a willing buyer, or legal restrictions on the securities’ resale. Additionally, the market for certain investments may become illiquid under adverse market or economic conditions independent of any specific adverse changes in the conditions of a particular issuer, such as during political events (including periods of rapid interest rate changes). There can be no assurance that an investment that is deemed to be liquid when purchased will continue to be liquid while it is held by a Fund and/or when a Fund wishes to dispose of it. Bond markets have consistently grown over the past three decades while the capacity for traditional dealer counterparties to engage in fixed income trading has not kept pace and in some cases has decreased. As a result, dealer inventories of corporate bonds, which provide a core indication of the ability of financial intermediaries to “make markets,” are at or near historic lows in relation to market size. Because market makers seek to provide stability to a market through their intermediary services, the significant reduction in dealer inventories could potentially lead to decreased liquidity and increased volatility in the fixed income markets. Such issues may be exacerbated during periods of economic uncertainty.

requests, redemption requests by certain large shareholders such as institutional investors or asset allocators, or other unusual market conditions that may make it difficult for a Fund to sell investments within the allowable time period to meet redemptions. Meeting such redemption requests could require a Fund to sell securities at reduced prices or under unfavorable conditions, which would have an adverse effect on a Fund. It may also be the case that other market participants may be attempting to liquidate fixed income holdings at the same time as a Fund, causing increased supply in the market and contributing to liquidity risk and downward pricing pressure.

The action(s) of governments and regulators may have the effect of reducing market liquidity, market resiliency and money supply. Certain accounts or PIMCO affiliates may from time to time own (beneficially or of record) or control a significant percentage of a Fund’s shares. Redemptions by these shareholders of their holdings in a Fund may impact a Fund’s liquidity and NAV. These redemptions may also force a Fund to sell its securities, which may negatively impact a Fund’s brokerage costs.

Liquidity risk also refers to the risk that a Fund may be required to hold additional cash or sell other investments in order to obtain cash to close out derivatives or meet the liquidity demands that derivatives can create to make payments of margin, collateral, or settlement payments to counterparties. A Fund may have to sell a security at a disadvantageous time or price to meet such obligations.

Derivatives Risk

Derivatives and other similar instruments (referred to collectively as “derivatives”) are financial contracts whose value depends on, or is derived from, the value of an underlying asset, reference rate or index. The various derivative instruments that a Fund may use are referenced under “Characteristics and Risks of Securities and Investment Techniques— Derivatives” in this Prospectus and described in more detail under “Investment Objectives and Policies” in the SAI. A Fund may use derivatives as a substitute for taking a position in the underlying asset, as part of strategies designed to gain exposure to, for example, issuers, portions of the yield curve, indexes, sectors, currencies and/or geographic regions, and/or to manage (which may mean either to increase or decrease) exposure to other risks, such as interest rate, credit or currency risk. A Fund may also use derivatives for leverage, in which case their use would involve leveraging risk, and in some cases, may subject a Fund to the potential for unlimited loss. The use of derivatives or other similar instruments may cause a Fund’s investment returns to be impacted by the performance of assets such Fund does not own, potentially resulting in such Fund’s total investment exposure exceeding the value of its portfolio.

Investments in derivatives may take the form of buying and/or writing (selling) derivatives, and/or a Fund may otherwise become an obligor under a derivatives transaction. These transactions may produce short-term capital gains in the form of premiums or other returns for a Fund (which may support, constitute and/or increase the distributions paid by, or the yield of, a Fund) but create the risk of losses that can significantly exceed such current income or other returns. For example, the premium received for writing a call option may be dwarfed by the losses a Fund may incur if the call option is exercised, and derivative transactions where a Fund is an obligor can produce an up-front benefit, but the potential for leveraged losses. The distributions, or distribution rate, paid by a Fund should not be viewed as the total returns or overall performance of a Fund. These strategies may also produce adverse tax consequences (for example, a Fund’s income and gain-generating strategies may generate current income and gains taxable as ordinary income) and limit a Fund’s opportunity to profit or otherwise benefit from certain gains. A Fund may enter into opposing derivative transactions, or otherwise take opposing positions. Such transactions can generate distributable gains (which, as noted elsewhere, may be taxed as ordinary income) and create the risk of losses and NAV declines.

A Fund’s use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, and possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. Derivatives may increase market exposure and are subject to a number of risks, such as liquidity risk (which may be heightened for highly-customized derivatives), interest rate risk, market risk, leverage risk, counterparty (including credit) risk, operational risk (such as documentation issues, settlement issues and systems failures), legal risk (such as insufficient documentation, insufficient capacity or authority of a counterparty, and issues with the legality or enforceability of a contract), management risk, risks arising from changes in applicable regulatory requirements, risks arising from margin requirements, risks arising from mispricing or valuation complexity (including the risk of improper valuation), governmental risk, risks associated with the underlying asset, reference rate or index, and risks associated with sanctions. They also involve the risk that changes in the value of a derivative instrument may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. By investing in a derivative instrument, a Fund could lose more than the initial amount invested and derivatives may increase the volatility of a Fund, especially in unusual or extreme market conditions. Certain derivatives have the potential for unlimited loss, regardless of the size of the initial investment. A Fund may utilize asset segregation and posting of collateral for risk management or other purposes. A Fund may be required to hold additional cash or sell other investments in order to obtain cash to close out a position and changes in the value of a derivative may also create margin delivery or settlement payment obligations for a Fund. Also, suitable derivative transactions may not be available in all circumstances and there can be no assurance that a Fund will engage in these transactions to reduce exposure to other risks when that would be beneficial or that, if used, such strategies will be successful. In addition, a Fund’s use of derivatives may increase or accelerate the amount of taxes payable by shareholders. Non-centrally-cleared over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivatives are also subject to the risk that a counterparty to the transaction will not fulfill its contractual obligations to the other party, as many of the protections afforded to centrally-cleared derivative transactions might not be available for non-centrally-cleared OTC derivatives. The primary credit risk on derivatives or other similar investments that are exchange-traded or traded through a central clearing counterparty resides with a Fund's clearing broker or the clearinghouse.

Derivatives that are cleared by a central clearing organization can still be subject to different risks, including the creditworthiness of the central clearing organization and its members.

In addition, derivatives that are traded on an exchange are subject to the risk that an exchange may limit the maximum daily price fluctuation of a derivative contract and restrict or suspend trading of a contract that has reached a limit. Such limit governs only price movements of a contract during a particular trading day and therefore does not limit potential losses because the limit may work to prevent the liquidation of unfavorable positions. A daily limit may be reached for several consecutive days with little or no trading.

Participation in the markets for derivative instruments involves investment risks and transaction costs to which a Fund may not be subject absent the use of these strategies. The skills needed to successfully execute derivative strategies may be different from those needed for other types of transactions. If a Fund incorrectly forecasts the value and/or creditworthiness of securities, currencies, interest rates, counterparties or other economic factors involved in a derivative transaction, a Fund might have been in a better position if a Fund had not entered into such derivative transaction. In evaluating the risks and contractual obligations associated with particular derivative instruments or other similar investments, it is important to consider that certain derivative transactions, absent a default or termination event, may only be modified or terminated by mutual consent of a Fund and its counterparty. Therefore, it may not be possible for a Fund to modify, terminate, or offset a Fund’s obligations or a Fund’s exposure to the risks associated with a derivative transaction prior to its scheduled termination or maturity date, which may create a possibility of increased volatility and/or decreased liquidity to a Fund. In such cases, a Fund may experience losses.

Because the markets for certain derivative instruments (including markets located in foreign countries) are relatively new and still developing, appropriate derivative transactions may not be available in all circumstances for risk management or other purposes. Upon the expiration of a particular contract, a Fund may wish to retain a Fund’s position in the derivative instrument by entering into a similar contract, but may be unable to do so if the counterparty to the original contract is unwilling to enter into the new contract and no other appropriate counterparty can be found. When such markets are unavailable, a Fund will be subject to increased liquidity and investment risk.

When a derivative is used as a hedge against a position that a Fund holds, any loss generated by the derivative generally should be substantially offset by gains on the hedged investment, and vice versa. Although hedging can reduce or eliminate losses, it can also reduce or eliminate gains. Hedges are sometimes subject to imperfect matching between the derivative and the underlying instrument, and there can be no assurance that a Fund’s hedging transactions will be effective. Derivatives used for hedging or risk management may not operate as intended or may expose a Fund to additional risks. In addition, derivatives used for hedging may partially protect a Fund from the risks they were intended to hedge yet not fully mitigate the impact of such risks.

The regulation of the derivatives markets has increased over time, and additional future regulation of the derivatives markets may make derivatives more costly, may limit the availability or reduce the liquidity of derivatives, or may otherwise adversely affect the value or performance of derivatives. Any such adverse future developments could impair the effectiveness or raise the costs of a Fund’s derivative transactions, impede the employment of a Fund’s derivatives strategies, or adversely affect a Fund’s performance and cause a Fund to lose value.

Equity Risk

Equity or equity-related securities represent an ownership interest, or the right to acquire an ownership interest, in an issuer. Equity or equity-related securities also include, among other things, common stocks, preferred securities, convertible stocks and warrants. The values of equity securities, such as common stocks and preferred securities, may decline due to general market conditions that are not specifically related to a particular company, such as real or perceived adverse economic conditions, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in inflation, interest or currency rates, or adverse investor sentiment generally. They may also decline due to factors that affect a particular industry or industries, such as regulatory changes, labor shortages or increased production costs and competitive conditions within an industry. Conversely, a change in financial condition or other event affecting a single issuer or industry may adversely impact securities markets as a whole. In addition, preferred securities may be subject to greater credit risk or other risks, such as risks related to deferred and omitted distributions, limited voting rights, liquidity, interest rates, regulatory changes and special redemption rights. Equity or equity-related securities generally have greater price volatility than most fixed income securities. These risks are generally magnified in the case of equity investments in distressed companies.

Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities Risk

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus 75

PIMCO Funds

Fund to experience losses. This is known as extension risk. Mortgage-backed securities can be highly sensitive to rising interest rates, such that even small movements can cause an investing Fund to lose value. Mortgage-backed securities, and in particular those not backed by a government guarantee, are subject to credit risk. In addition, adjustable and fixed rate mortgage-related securities are subject to prepayment risk. When interest rates decline, borrowers may pay off their mortgages sooner than expected. This can reduce the returns of a Fund because a Fund may have to reinvest that money at the lower prevailing interest rates. In addition, the creditworthiness, servicing practices, and financial viability of the servicers of the underlying mortgage pools present significant risks. For instance, a servicer may be required to make advances in respect of delinquent loans underlying the mortgage-related securities; however, servicers experiencing financial difficulties may not be able to perform these obligations. Additionally, both mortgage-related and asset-backed securities are subject to risks associated with fraud or negligence by, or defalcation of, their servicers. These securities are also subject to the risks of the underlying loans. In some circumstances, a servicer’s or originator’s mishandling of documentation related to the underlying collateral (e.g., failure to properly document a security interest in the underlying collateral) may affect the rights of security holders in and to the underlying collateral. In addition, the underlying loans may have been extended pursuant to inappropriate underwriting guidelines, to no underwriting guidelines at all, or to fraudulent origination practices. The owner of a mortgage-backed security’s ability to recover against the sponsor, servicer or originator is uncertain and is often limited.

A Fund’s investments in other asset-backed securities are subject to risks similar to those associated with mortgage-related securities, as well as additional risks associated with the nature of the assets and the servicing of those assets. Payment of principal and interest on asset-backed securities may be largely dependent upon the cash flows generated by the assets backing the securities, and asset-backed securities may not have the benefit of any security interest in the related assets. A Fund may invest in any tranche of mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities, including junior and/or equity tranches (to the extent consistent with a Fund’s guidelines), which generally carry higher levels of the foregoing risks. Additionally, to the extent a Fund invests directly in mortgages and other types of collateral (consistent with its investment guidelines), the Fund would be subject to risks similar (and in some cases to a greater degree) to those described above.

Collateralized Loan Obligations Risk

Certain Funds may invest in collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) and other similarly structured investments. A CLO is an asset-backed security typically collateralized by a pool of loans, which may include, among others, domestic and foreign senior secured loans, senior unsecured loans and subordinate corporate loans, including loans that may be rated below investment grade or equivalent unrated loans. In addition to the risks associated with investment in such underlying assets, the structure and characteristics of a CLO present certain additional risks. A Fund’s investments in CLOs and other similarly structured investments may expose the Fund to heightened credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, market risk and prepayment and extension risk, as well as the risk of default on the underlying asset. In addition, investments in CLOs carry additional risks including, but not limited to: (i) the possibility that distributions from the collateral securities will not be adequate to make interest or other payments; (ii) the quality of the collateral may decline in value or default; (iii) risks related to the capability of the servicer of the securitized assets; (iv) the risk that a Fund may invest in tranches of CLOs that are subordinate to other tranches; (v) the structure and complexity of the transaction and the legal documents may not be fully understood at the time of investment and could lead to disputes with the issuer or among investors regarding the characterization of proceeds or unexpected investment results; and (vi) the CLO’s manager may perform poorly. CLOs may charge management and other administrative fees, which are in addition to those of a Fund.

The cash flows from a CLO are split into portions, called tranches, varying in risk and yield. Losses caused by defaults on underlying assets are borne first by the holders of subordinate tranches. Tranches are categorized as senior, mezzanine and subordinated/equity, according to their degree of risk. Interest on a CLO may be paid in kind or deferred and capitalized (paid in the form of obligations of the same type rather than cash), which involves continued exposure to default risk with respect to such payments. If there are defaults or the CLO’s collateral otherwise underperforms, scheduled payments to senior tranches take precedence over those of mezzanine tranches, and scheduled payments to mezzanine tranches take precedence over those of subordinated/equity tranches. The riskiest portion is the “equity” tranche which bears the first loss of any defaults from the underlying bonds or loans although more senior tranches may also bear losses. Since they are partially protected from defaults, senior tranches from a CLO typically have higher ratings and lower yields than their underlying securities, and can be rated investment grade. Despite the protection from the equity tranche, CLO tranches can experience substantial losses due to actual defaults, increased sensitivity to defaults due to collateral default and disappearance of protecting tranches, market anticipation of defaults, as well as aversion to CLO securities as a class. The risks of an investment in a CLO depend largely on the type of the collateral securities and the class of the instrument in which a Fund invests. Typically, CLOs are privately offered and sold, and thus, are not registered under the securities laws.

Extension Risk

The issuer of a security held by a Fund (such as a mortgage-related or other asset-backed security) may, under certain circumstances, make principal payments on such security later than expected, causing the average duration of the security to lengthen or the securities to be paid off more slowly than originally anticipated. This may occur, for example, when interest rates rise. Such later-than-expected principal payments decrease the value of the security held by a Fund. In addition, as payments are received later than expected, a Fund may miss the opportunity to reinvest in higher yielding securities.

Prepayment Risk

The issuer of a security held by a Fund (such as a mortgage-related or other asset-backed security) may under certain circumstances make principal payments on such security sooner than expected. This may occur, for example, when interest rates decline. Such sooner-than-expected principal payments may reduce the returns of a Fund because the Fund is forced to forego expected future interest payments on the principal amount paid back early and the Fund may be forced to reinvest the money it receives from such early payments at the lower prevailing interest rates. Additionally, the yield to maturity on an IO class of a stripped MBS (“SMBS”) is extremely sensitive to the rate of principal payments (including prepayments) on the underlying mortgage assets, and a rapid rate of principal payments may have a material adverse effect on a Fund’s yield to maturity from these securities.

Privately-Issued Mortgage-Related Securities Risk

There are no direct or indirect government or agency guarantees of payments in pools created by non-governmental issuers. Privately-issued mortgage-related securities are also not subject to the same underwriting requirements for the underlying mortgages that are applicable to those mortgage-related securities that have a government or government-sponsored entity guarantee.

Privately-issued mortgage-related securities are not traded on an exchange and there may be a limited market for the securities, especially when there is a perceived weakness in the mortgage and real estate market sectors. Without an active trading market, mortgage-related securities held in a Fund’s portfolio may be particularly difficult to value because of the complexities involved in assessing the value of the underlying mortgage loans.

Real Estate Risk

Investments in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) or real estate-linked derivative instruments are subject to risks similar to those associated with direct ownership of real estate, and the real estate market generally. Such risks include a possible decline in the value of (or income generated by) the real estate, variations in rental income, fluctuations in occupancy levels, changes in the availability or terms of mortgages and other financing that may render the sale or refinancing of properties difficult or unattractive, losses from casualty or condemnation, and changes in local and general economic conditions. Additionally, the real estate market is subject to risks related to supply and demand, including reduced demand for properties or real estate-related services, reduced demand for commercial and office space as well as increased maintenance or tenant improvement costs to convert properties for other uses, default risk of tenants and borrowers, the financial condition of tenants, buyers and sellers, and the inability to re-lease space on attractive terms or to obtain mortgage financing on a timely basis or at all. Additional risks include changes in interest rates, zoning laws, regulatory limitations on rents, property taxes, and operating expenses. Real estate securities may have limited diversification and, therefore, tend to be subject to risks inherent in operating and financing a limited number of projects. Real estate income and values may also be affected by demographic trends, such as population shifts or changing tastes, preferences (such as remote work arrangements) and social values. An investment in a REIT or a real estate-linked derivative instrument that is linked to the value of a REIT is subject to additional risks, such as poor performance by the manager of the REIT, adverse changes to the tax laws or failure by the REIT to qualify for tax-free pass-through of income under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). In addition, some REITs have limited diversification because they invest in a limited number of properties, a narrow geographic area, or a single type of property. Also, the organizational documents of a REIT may contain provisions that make changes in control of the REIT difficult and time-consuming.

If a REIT is privately held or not traded on a national securities exchange, it may have limited or no liquidity, which could restrict a Fund’s ability to redeem some or all of its investment, and which may require a Fund to hold onto its investment in the REIT despite poor performance. Additionally, privately-held or non-traded REITs may bear higher fees than publicly-traded REITs, and are generally harder to value due to less frequent updates to their net asset values. Privately-held REITs generally are exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and, as such, are not subject to the same disclosure requirements as REITs registered under the Securities Act, which may make privately-held REITs more difficult to evaluate from an investment perspective.

In addition, real estate values have been subject to substantial fluctuations and declines on a local, regional and national basis in the past and may continue to be in the future. During periods of rising interest rates, real estate securities may lose appeal for investors who may seek higher yields from other income-producing investments. Rising interest rates may also contribute to financing for property purchases and improvements becoming more costly and difficult to obtain. Developments following the onset of COVID-19 have adversely impacted certain commercial real estate markets in

some cases, causing the deferral of mortgage payments, renegotiated commercial mortgage loans, commercial real estate vacancies or outright mortgage defaults, and potential acceleration of macro trends such as work from home and online shopping which may negatively impact certain industries, such as brick-and-mortar retail.

Foreign (Non-U.S.) Investment Risk

Foreign (non-U.S.) securities may experience more rapid and extreme changes in value than securities of U.S. issuers or securities that trade exclusively in U.S. markets. The securities markets of many foreign (non-U.S.) countries are relatively small, with a limited number of companies representing a small number of industries. Additionally, issuers of foreign (non-U.S.) securities are usually not subject to the same degree of regulation as U.S. issuers. Reporting, legal, corporate governance, accounting and auditing standards of foreign (non-U.S.) countries differ, in some cases significantly, from U.S. standards. Global economies and financial markets are becoming increasingly interconnected, and conditions and events in one country, region or financial market may adversely impact issuers in a different country, region or financial market. Foreign (non-U.S.) market trading hours, clearance and settlement procedures, and holiday schedules may limit a Fund’s ability to buy and sell securities. Investments in foreign (non-U.S.) markets may also be adversely affected by governmental actions such as the imposition of capital controls, nationalization of companies or industries, expropriation of assets or the imposition of punitive taxes. The governments of certain countries may prohibit or impose substantial restrictions on foreign investing in their capital markets or in certain sectors or industries. In addition, a foreign (non-U.S.) government may limit or cause delay in the convertibility or repatriation of its currency which would adversely affect the U.S. dollar value and/or liquidity of investments denominated in that currency. Certain foreign (non-U.S.) investments may become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perceptions, or become illiquid after purchase by a Fund, particularly during periods of market turmoil and may render holdings in that foreign (non-U.S.) country illiquid or even worthless. A reduction in trading in securities of issuers located in countries whose economies are heavily dependent upon trading with key partners may have an adverse impact on a Fund’s investments. Additionally, events and evolving conditions in certain markets or regions may alter the risk profile of investments tied to those markets or regions. This may cause investments tied to such markets or regions to become riskier or more volatile, even when investments in such markets or regions were perceived as comparatively stable historically.

Also, nationalization, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, unstable governments, decreased market liquidity, currency blockage, market disruptions, political changes, security suspensions, diplomatic developments, trade restrictions (including tariffs) or the imposition of sanctions or other similar measures could adversely affect a Fund’s investments in a foreign (non-U.S.) country and may render holdings in that foreign (non-U.S.) country illiquid or even worthless. In the event of nationalization, expropriation or other confiscation, a Fund could lose its entire investment in foreign (non-U.S.) securities. The type and severity of sanctions and other similar measures, including counter sanctions and other retaliatory actions, that may be imposed could vary broadly in scope, and their impact is difficult to ascertain. These types of measures may include, but are not limited to, banning a sanctioned country or certain persons or entities associated with such country from global payment systems that facilitate cross-border payments, restricting securities transactions, restricting dealings with entities that are critical to the infrastructure of securities and related transactions in specific jurisdictions, restricting transactions in specified sectors of certain countries, and freezing the assets of particular countries, entities or persons. The imposition of sanctions and other similar measures could, among other things, result in a decline in the value and/or liquidity of affected securities, downgrades in the credit ratings of affected or related securities, currency devaluation or volatility, and increased market volatility and disruption in the securities or sanctioned country and throughout the world. Sanctions and other similar measures could directly or indirectly limit or prevent a Fund from buying and selling securities, receiving interest or principal payments due on the securities, significantly delay or prevent the settlement of securities transactions and adversely impact a Fund's liquidity and performance and/or prevent the liquidation of a Fund holding sanctioned securities. The U.S. government may renegotiate some of its global trade relationships with foreign governments and may impose or threaten to impose significant tariffs. The imposition of tariffs, trade restrictions, currency restrictions or similar actions (or retaliatory measures taken in response to such actions) could contribute to volatility or overall declines in the U.S. and global investment markets. Adverse conditions in a certain region can adversely affect securities of other countries whose economies appear to be unrelated. To the extent that a Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in a specific geographic region or in securities denominated in a particular foreign (non-U.S.) currency, a Fund will generally have more exposure to regional economic risks, including weather emergencies and natural disasters, associated with foreign (non-U.S.) investments. Foreign (non-U.S.) securities may also be less liquid (particularly during market closures due to local holidays or other reasons) and more difficult to value than securities of U.S. issuers.

Emerging Markets Risk

78 Prospectus | PIMCO Funds

Prospectus

in an environment that is adverse to emerging market securities in general. Emerging market securities may also be more volatile, less liquid (particularly during market closures due to local holidays or other reasons) and more difficult to value than securities economically tied to developed foreign countries. The systems and procedures for trading and settlement of securities in emerging markets are less developed and less transparent and transactions may take longer to settle. Emerging market countries typically have less established regulatory, disclosure, legal, accounting, recordkeeping and financial reporting systems than those in more developed markets, which may increase the potential for market manipulation or reduce the scope or quality of financial information available to investors. Governments in emerging market countries are often less stable and more likely to take extra-legal action with respect to companies, industries, assets, or foreign ownership than those in more developed markets. Moreover, it can be more difficult for investors to bring litigation or enforce judgments, or to obtain information needed to pursue or enforce such judgments against issuers in emerging markets or for U.S. regulators to bring enforcement actions against such issuers. In addition, foreign companies with securities listed on U.S. exchanges may be delisted if they do not meet U.S. accounting standards and auditor oversight requirements, which may decrease the liquidity and value of the securities. Emerging markets may also be more susceptible to fraud, corruption, money laundering and economic sanctions risk, which may result in negative commercial consequences in relation to the value, liquidity and tradability of investments in or related to those regions. A Fund may also be subject to Emerging Markets Risk if it invests in derivatives or other securities or instruments whose value or return are related to the value or returns of emerging markets securities. Rising interest rates, combined with widening credit spreads, could negatively impact the value of emerging market debt and increase funding costs for foreign issuers. In such a scenario, foreign issuers might not be able to service their debt obligations, the market for emerging market debt could suffer from reduced liquidity, and any investing Fund could experience losses. The economy of some emerging markets may be particularly exposed to or affected by a certain industry or sector, and therefore issuers and/or securities of such emerging markets may be more affected by the performance of such industries or sectors.

Sovereign Debt Risk

Sovereign debt risk is the risk that fixed income instruments issued by sovereign entities may decline in value as a result of default or other adverse credit event resulting from an issuer’s inability or unwillingness to make principal or interest payments in a timely fashion. A sovereign entity’s failure to make timely payments on its debt can result from many factors, including, without limitation, insufficient foreign (non-U.S.) currency reserves or an inability to sufficiently manage fluctuations in relative currency valuations, an inability or unwillingness to satisfy the demands of creditors and/or relevant supranational entities regarding debt service or economic reforms, the size of the debt burden relative to economic output and tax revenues, cash flow difficulties, and other political and social considerations. The risk of loss to a Fund in the event of a sovereign debt default or other adverse credit event is heightened by the unlikelihood of any formal recourse or means to enforce its rights as a holder of the sovereign debt. In addition, sovereign debt restructurings, which may be shaped by entities and factors beyond a Fund’s control, may result in a loss in value of a Fund’s sovereign debt holdings.

Currency Risk

If a Fund invests directly in foreign (non-U.S.) currencies or in securities that trade in, and receive revenues in, foreign (non-U.S.) currencies, or in derivatives or other instruments that provide exposure to foreign (non-U.S.) currencies, it will be subject to the risk that those currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar, or, in the case of hedging positions, that the U.S. dollar will decline in value relative to the currency being hedged. Although a Fund may attempt to hedge its currency exposure into the U.S. dollar, it may not be successful in reducing the effects of currency fluctuations. A Fund may also hedge from one foreign currency to another. In addition, a Fund’s use of currency hedging may not be successful and the use of such strategies may lower a Fund’s potential returns.

Currency rates in foreign (non-U.S.) countries may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time for a number of reasons, including changes in interest or inflation rates, balance of payments and governmental surpluses or deficits, intervention (or the failure to intervene) by U.S. or foreign (non-U.S.) governments, central banks or supranational entities such as the International Monetary Fund, the imposition of currency controls or other political developments in the U.S. or abroad. As a result, a Fund’s investments in or exposure to foreign (non-U.S.) currencies and/or foreign (non-U.S.) currency-denominated securities may reduce the returns of a Fund. Devaluation of a currency by a country’s government or banking authority can significantly impact the value of any investments denominated in that currency. A Fund may also be adversely impacted by expenses incurred by converting between currencies to purchase and sell securities not valued in the U.S. dollar, as well as by currency restrictions, exchange control regulation, or governmental restrictions that limit or otherwise delay a Fund’s ability to convert currencies.

Currency risk may be particularly high to the extent that a Fund invests in foreign (non-U.S.) currencies or engages in foreign currency transactions that are economically tied to emerging market countries. These currency transactions may present market, credit, currency, liquidity, legal, political and other risks different from, or greater than, the risks of investing in developed foreign (non-U.S.) currencies or engaging in foreign currency transactions that are economically tied to developed foreign countries.

PIMCO Funds

Leveraging Risk

Certain transactions may give rise to a form of leverage. Such transactions may include, among others, reverse repurchase agreements, loans of portfolio securities, and the use of when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment transactions. The use of derivatives may also create leveraging risk. A Fund also may be exposed to leveraging risk by borrowing money for investment purposes. Leverage may cause a Fund to liquidate portfolio positions to satisfy its obligations when it may not be advantageous to do so. Leverage, including borrowing, may cause a Fund to be more volatile than if a Fund had not been leveraged. This is because leverage tends to exaggerate the effect of any increase or decrease in the value of a Fund's portfolio securities. The use of leverage may also increase a Fund's sensitivity to interest rate risks. Certain types of leveraging transactions, such as short sales that are not “against the box” (i.e., short sales where a Fund does not hold the security or have the right to acquire it without payment of further consideration), could theoretically be subject to unlimited losses in cases where a Fund, for any reason, is unable to close out the transaction. In addition, to the extent a Fund borrows money, interest costs on such borrowings may not be recovered by any appreciation of the securities purchased with the borrowed amounts and could exceed a Fund’s investment returns, resulting in greater losses. Moreover, to make payments of interest and other loan costs, a Fund may be forced to sell portfolio securities when it is not otherwise advantageous to do so. When a Fund reduces or discontinues its use of leverage (“deleveraging”), it may be required to sell portfolio securities at inopportune times to repay leverage obligations, which could result in realized losses and a decrease in a Fund's net asset value. Deleveraging involves complex operational processes, including the coordination of asset sales, repayment of debt, and potential restructuring of a Fund's capital and may involve significant costs, including transaction costs associated with the sale of portfolio securities and prepayment penalties on borrowed funds. Leveraging transactions pursued by a Fund may increase its duration and sensitivity to interest rate risks. A Fund may continue to use leverage even if available financing rates are higher than anticipated returns, including, for example, in cases where deleveraging, including any expenses related thereto, might be viewed as detrimental to a Fund’s portfolio.

Management Risk

Each Fund is subject to management risk because it is an actively managed investment portfolio. PIMCO and each individual portfolio manager will apply investment techniques and risk analysis and will, in some cases, rely partially or entirely upon or be informed by one or more quantitative models in making investment decisions for the Funds. PIMCO and each portfolio manager may not consider every factor or may determine that certain factors are more significant than others. There can be no guarantee that these decisions will produce the desired results or that the due diligence conducted by PIMCO and individual portfolio managers will evaluate every factor prior to investing in a company or issuer and expose all material risks associated with an investment. Additionally, PIMCO and individual portfolio managers may not be able to identify suitable investment opportunities and may face competition from other investment managers when identifying and consummating certain investments. Certain securities or other instruments in which a Fund seeks to invest may not be available in the quantities desired, including in circumstances where other funds for which PIMCO acts as investment adviser, including funds with names, investment objectives and policies, and/or portfolio management teams, similar to a Fund, are seeking to invest in the same or similar securities or instruments. In addition, regulatory restrictions, actual or potential conflicts of interest or other considerations may cause PIMCO to restrict or prohibit participation in certain investments. In such circumstances, PIMCO or the individual portfolio managers may determine to purchase other securities or instruments as substitutes. Such substitute securities or instruments may not perform as intended, which could result in losses to a Fund . To the extent a Fund employs strategies targeting perceived pricing inefficiencies, arbitrage strategies or similar strategies, it is subject to the risk that the pricing or valuation of the securities and instruments involved in such strategies may change unexpectedly, which may result in reduced returns or losses to a Fund. Each Fund is also subject to the risk that deficiencies in the internal systems or controls of PIMCO or another service provider will cause losses for a Fund or hinder Fund operations. For example, trading delays or errors (both human and systemic) could prevent a Fund from purchasing a security expected to appreciate in value. Please refer to “Portfolio Managers – Conflicts of Interest” in the SAI for further information. Additionally, actual or potential conflicts of interest, legislative, regulatory, or tax restrictions, policies or developments may affect the investment techniques available to PIMCO and each individual portfolio manager in connection with managing the Funds may cause PIMCO to restrict or prohibit participation in certain investments and may also adversely affect the ability of the Funds to achieve their investment objectives. There also can be no assurance that all of the personnel of PIMCO will continue to be associated with PIMCO for any length of time. The loss of services of one or more key employees of PIMCO could have an adverse impact on a Fund’s ability to realize its investment objective.

Short Exposure Risk

A Fund’s short sales and short positions, if any, are subject to special risks. A short sale involves the sale by a Fund of a security that it does not own with the hope of purchasing the same security at a later date at a lower price. A Fund may also enter into a short position through a forward commitment or a short derivative position through a futures contract or swap agreement. If the price of the security or derivative has increased during this time, then a Fund will incur a loss equal to the increase in price from the time that the short sale was entered into plus any transaction costs (i.e., premiums and interest) paid to the broker-dealer to borrow securities. Therefore, short sales involve the risk that losses may be exaggerated, potentially losing more money than the actual cost of the investment. By contrast, a loss on a long position arises from decreases in the value of the security and is limited by the fact that a security’s value cannot decrease below zero.

80 Prospectus | PIMCO Funds

Prospectus

By investing the proceeds received from selling securities short, a Fund could be deemed to be employing a form of leverage, which creates special risks. The use of leverage may increase a Fund’s exposure to long security positions and make any change in a Fund’s NAV greater than it would be without the use of leverage. This could result in increased volatility of returns. There is no guarantee that any leveraging strategy a Fund employs will be successful during any period in which it is employed.

In times of unusual or adverse market, economic, regulatory, environmental or political conditions, a Fund may not be able, fully or partially, to implement its short selling strategy. Periods of unusual or adverse market, economic, regulatory, environmental or political conditions generally may exist for as long as six months and, in some cases, much longer. In response to market events, the SEC and regulatory authorities in other jurisdictions may adopt (and in certain cases, have adopted) bans on, and/or reporting requirements for, short sales of certain securities, including short positions on such securities acquired through swaps. Also, there is the risk that the third party to the short sale or short position will not fulfill its contractual obligations, causing a loss to a Fund. The PIMCO Total Return Fund IV plans to limit short sales, including short exposures obtained using derivative instruments, to 10% of its total assets.

Tax-Efficient Investing Risk

A Fund may engage in investment strategies intended to manage capital gain distributions. For example, a Fund may attempt to use losses from sales of securities that have declined to offset future gains that would otherwise be taxable. Any such strategy may be unsuccessful or only partially successful, and investors may experience adverse tax effects, including, but not limited to potentially greater tax liability than other PIMCO-advised funds. Changes to federal, state or local tax laws could also have an adverse effect on the Fund’s tax-efficient approach. Additionally, such strategies may reduce investment returns or result in investment losses, which could cause the Fund and investors to experience losses. Further, a Fund’s focus on income generation may result in a higher overall tax liability as income may be taxed at a higher rate than capital gains.

Convertible Securities Risk

Convertible securities are fixed income securities, preferred securities or other securities that are convertible into or exercisable for common stock of the issuer (or cash or securities of equivalent value) at either a stated price or a stated rate. Convertible debt securities pay interest and convertible preferred stocks pay dividends until they mature or are converted, exchanged or redeemed. The market values of convertible securities may decline as interest rates increase and, conversely, may increase as interest rates decline. A convertible security’s market value, however, tends to reflect the market price of the common stock of the issuing company when that stock price approaches or is greater than the convertible security’s “conversion price.” The conversion price is defined as the predetermined price at which the convertible security could be exchanged for the associated stock. Certain types of convertible securities may decline in value or lose their value entirely in the event the issuer’s financial condition becomes significantly impaired. As the market price of the underlying common stock declines, the price of the convertible security tends to be influenced more by the yield of the convertible security. Thus, it may not decline in price to the same extent as the underlying common stock. In the event of a liquidation of the issuing company, holders of convertible securities may be paid before the company’s common stockholders but after holders of any senior debt obligations of the company. Consequently, the issuer’s convertible securities generally entail less risk than its common stock but more risk than its debt obligations.

Synthetic convertible securities involve the combination of separate securities that possess the two principal characteristics of a traditional convertible security (i.e., an income-producing component and a right to acquire an equity security). Synthetic convertible securities are often achieved, in part, through investments in warrants or options to buy common stock (or options on a stock index), and therefore are subject to the risks associated with derivatives. The value of a synthetic convertible security will respond differently to market fluctuations than a traditional convertible security because a synthetic convertible is composed of two or more separate securities or instruments, each with its own market value. Because the convertible component is typically achieved by investing in warrants or options to buy common stock at a certain exercise price, or options on a stock index, synthetic convertible securities are subject to the risks associated with derivatives. In addition, if the value of the underlying common stock or the level of the index involved in the convertible component falls below the exercise price of the warrant or option, the warrant or option may lose all value.

Environmental, Social and Governance Risk

PIMCO Total Return ESG Fund’s Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) investing strategy, which may select or typically exclude securities of certain issuers for reasons in addition to performance, carries the risk that the Fund’s performance may differ from funds that do not utilize an ESG investing strategy. For example, the application of this strategy could affect the Fund’s exposure to certain sectors or types of investments, which could negatively impact the Fund’s performance. ESG investing is qualitative and subjective by nature, and there is no guarantee that the factors utilized by PIMCO or any judgment exercised by PIMCO will reflect the opinions of any particular investor, and the factors utilized by PIMCO may differ from the factors that any particular investor considers relevant in evaluating an issuer’s ESG practices. PIMCO’s assessment of a company's practices and processes relating to ESG investing may also change, including in response to legal and regulatory developments relevant to sustainable and/or ESG investing. In addition, the Fund may have fewer investment opportunities available to it than it would have if it did not take into account

PIMCO Funds

ESG characteristics of investments, which may cause the Fund to underperform. In evaluating an issuer, PIMCO is dependent upon information and data obtained through voluntary or third-party reporting that may be incomplete, inaccurate or unavailable, misleading or present conflicting information and data with respect to an issuer, which in each case could cause PIMCO to incorrectly assess an issuer’s business practices with respect to its ESG practices. For example, a third-party provider may evaluate factors using their own proprietary methodologies and sources of information, which may differ significantly in scope, quality, and consistency. Data coverage may also vary across issuers, sectors, and geographies, which may result in inconsistent or biased assessments. These limitations could lead to investment decisions by PIMCO that do not accurately reflect the Fund’s criteria or result in the Fund’s exposure to unintended risks, potentially affecting the Fund’s performance and alignment with investor expectations. PIMCO’s engagement practices are conducted on a firm-wide basis and would be expected to focus on ESG practices that have the potential to enhance risk-adjusted returns. Socially responsible norms differ by region, and an issuer’s ESG practices or PIMCO’s assessment of an issuer’s ESG practices may change over time. PIMCO’s ESG process seeks to exclude investments that are misaligned with certain sustainability principles, as determined by PIMCO’s internal criteria. The Fund may invest in securities of issuers whose ESG practices are weaker relative to certain peers or industry benchmarks with the expectation that these practices may improve over time. It may also exclude those issuers that are not receptive to pursuing improvement in certain ESG practices, as determined in PIMCO’s sole discretion. Successful application of the Fund’s ESG investing strategy and PIMCO’s engagement efforts will depend on PIMCO’s skill in properly identifying and analyzing material ESG issues, and there can be no assurance that the strategy or techniques employed will be successful. Regulation of ESG investing in the U.S. and abroad is evolving. Future regulatory developments in the U.S. and abroad which seek to regulate ESG investing approaches and/or associated disclosures may impact or otherwise influence the ESG investing strategies utilized by PIMCO in the future. The Fund’s investments in certain issuers may be susceptible to various factors that may impact their businesses or operations, including costs associated with government budgetary constraints that impact publicly funded projects and initiatives, the effects of general economic conditions throughout the world, increased competition from other providers of services, unfavorable tax laws or accounting policies and high leverage. Past performance is not a guarantee or reliable indicator of future results.

Environmental, Social and Governance and Faith-Based Values Investing Risk

With respect to PIMCO Total Return Fund V, the Fund’s ESG investing strategy and certain faith-based values investment guidelines, which may select or typically exclude securities of certain issuers for reasons in addition to performance, carry the risk that the Fund’s performance may differ from funds that do not utilize an ESG and faith-based values investing strategy. For example, the application of this strategy could affect the Fund’s exposure to certain sectors or types of investments, which could negatively impact the Fund’s performance. ESG and faith-based values investing is qualitative and subjective by nature, and there is no guarantee that the factors utilized by PIMCO or any judgment exercised by PIMCO will reflect the opinions of any particular investor, and the factors utilized by PIMCO may differ from the factors that any particular investor considers relevant in evaluating an issuer’s ESG and faith-based values practices. PIMCO’s assessment of a company's practices and processes relating to ESG and faith-based values investing may also change, including in response to legal and regulatory developments relevant to sustainable and/or ESG and faith-based values investing.

Climate-Related Investing Risk

PIMCO Climate Bond Fund’s climate-related investing strategy, which may select or typically exclude securities of certain issuers for reasons in addition to performance, carries a risk that the Fund’s performance may differ from funds that do not utilize a climate-related investment strategy. For example, the application of this strategy could affect the Fund’s exposure to certain sectors or types of investments, which could negatively impact the Fund’s performance. Climate-related investing is qualitative and subjective by nature, and there is no guarantee that the factors utilized by PIMCO or any judgment exercised by PIMCO will reflect the opinions of any particular investor, and the factors utilized by PIMCO may differ from the factors that any particular investor considers relevant in evaluating an issuer’s climate-related practices. PIMCO’s assessment of a company's climate-related practices and processes may also change, including in response to legal and regulatory developments relevant to climate-related investing. In addition, a Fund may have fewer investment opportunities available to it than it would have if it did not take into account climate-related characteristics of investments, which may cause the Fund to underperform. In evaluating an issuer, PIMCO is dependent upon information and data obtained through voluntary or third-party reporting that may be incomplete, inaccurate or unavailable, misleading or present conflicting information and data with respect to an issuer, which in each case could cause PIMCO to incorrectly assess an issuer’s business practices with respect to its climate-related practices.

PIMCO's engagement practices are conducted on a firm-wide basis and would be expected to focus on climate-related practices that have the potential to enhance risk-adjusted returns. Socially responsible norms differ by region, and an issuer’s climate-related practices or PIMCO’s assessment of an issuer’s climate-related practices may change over time. PIMCO’s climate-related process seeks to exclude investments that are misaligned with certain sustainability principles, as determined by PIMCO’s internal criteria. The Fund may invest in securities of issuers whose climate-related practices are weaker relative to certain peers or industry benchmarks with the expectation that these practices may improve over time. It may also exclude those issuers that are not receptive to pursuing improvement in certain climate-related practices, as determined in PIMCO's sole discretion. Successful application of the Fund’s climate-related investing strategy and PIMCO’s engagement efforts will depend on PIMCO’s skill in properly identifying and analyzing material climate-related issues, and there can be no assurance that the strategy or techniques employed will be successful. Changes in political, regulatory, tax and/or other conditions in the U.S. and abroad with respect to climate-related activities may cause fluctuations in markets and securities prices around the world, which could negatively impact the value of a Fund’s investments. A Fund’s investments in certain issuers may be susceptible to various factors that may impact their businesses or operations, including costs associated with government budgetary constraints that impact publicly funded projects and initiatives, the effects of general economic conditions throughout the world, increased competition from other providers of services, unfavorable tax laws or accounting policies and high leverage. Past performance is not a guarantee or reliable indicator of future results.

Distribution Rate Risk

Although a Fund may seek to maintain a level distribution rate, the Fund’s distribution rate may be affected by numerous factors, including but not limited to changes in realized and projected market returns, fluctuations in market interest rates, Fund performance and other factors. For instance, during periods of low or declining interest rates, a Fund’s distributable income and dividend levels may decline for many reasons. There can be no assurance that a change in market conditions or other factors will not result in a change in a Fund’s distribution rate or that the rate will be sustainable in the future. Additionally, the distribution rate is not indicative of a Fund's performance and may not correlate with the actual returns generated by a Fund's investments.

Turnover Risk

A change in the securities held by a Fund is known as “portfolio turnover.” Higher portfolio turnover involves correspondingly greater expenses to a Fund, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed as ordinary income when distributed to individual shareholders), and may adversely impact a Fund’s after-tax returns. The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect a Fund’s performance.

Supervisory and Administrative Fee. Each Fund pays for the supervisory and administrative services it requires under what is essentially an all-in fee structure. Shareholders of each Fund pay a supervisory and administrative fee to PIMCO, computed as a percentage of the Fund’s assets attributable in the aggregate to that class of shares. PIMCO, in turn, provides or procures supervisory and administrative services for shareholders and also bears the costs of various third-party services required by the Funds, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Funds bear other expenses which are not covered under the supervisory and administrative fee which may vary and affect the total level of expenses paid by the shareholders, such as taxes and governmental fees, brokerage fees, commissions and other transaction expenses, organizational and offering expenses of the Trust and the Funds, and any other expenses which are capitalized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses, extraordinary expenses (such as litigation and indemnification expenses) and fees and expenses of the Trust’s Independent Trustees and their counsel. PIMCO generally earns a profit on the supervisory and administrative fee paid by the Funds. Also, under the terms of the supervision and administration agreement, PIMCO, and not Fund shareholders, would benefit from any price decreases in third-party services, including decreases resulting from an increase in net assets.

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, the Funds paid PIMCO monthly supervisory and administrative fees at the following annual rates (stated as a percentage of the average daily net assets attributable in the aggregate to each class’s shares taken separately):

Expense Limitation Agreement

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus 85

PIMCO Funds

prior to the end of the then current term. In any month in which the supervision and administration agreement is in effect, PIMCO is entitled to reimbursement by each Fund of any portion of the supervisory and administrative fee waived or reimbursed as set forth above (the “Reimbursement Amount”) within thirty-six months of the time of the waiver, provided that such amount paid to PIMCO will not: 1) together with any organizational expenses, pro rata share of expenses related to obtaining or maintaining a Legal Entity Identifier and pro rata Trustee fees, exceed, for such month, the Expense Limit (or the amount of the expense limit in place at the time the amount being recouped was originally waived if lower than the Expense Limit); 2) exceed the total Reimbursement Amount; or 3) include any amounts previously reimbursed to PIMCO.

Fee Waiver Agreements

PIMCO has contractually agreed, through July 31, 2026, to waive its supervisory and administrative fee for I-3 shares by 0.05% of the average daily net assets attributable to I-3 shares of each of PIMCO Climate Bond Fund, PIMCO Dynamic Bond Fund, PIMCO GNMA and Government Securities Fund, PIMCO Investment Grade Credit Bond Fund, PIMCO Long-Term U.S. Government Fund, PIMCO Mortgage Opportunities and Bond Fund, PIMCO Total Return Fund, PIMCO Total Return Fund V and PIMCO Total Return ESG Fund. This Fee Waiver Agreement will automatically renew for one-year terms unless PIMCO provides written notice to the Trust at least 30 days prior to the end of the then current term.

PIMCO has contractually agreed through July 31, 2026, to waive its advisory fee by 0.05% of the average daily net assets attributable to the PIMCO Dynamic Bond Fund. This Fee Waiver Agreement may be terminated by the Trust upon 90 days’ prior written notice to PIMCO.

The PIMCO Total Return, PIMCO Total Return Fund II, PIMCO GNMA and Government Securities, PIMCO Long Duration Total Return, PIMCO Extended Duration, PIMCO Moderate Duration, PIMCO Total Return Fund IV, PIMCO Total Return ESG, PIMCO Investment Grade Credit Bond and PIMCO Dynamic Bond Funds (each, an “Investing Fund”) may invest in other series of the Trust, series of PIMCO ETF Trust, and series of PIMCO Equity Series (each series, an “Underlying Fund,” and collectively, the “Underlying Funds”). Each Investing Fund pays advisory and supervisory and administrative fees directly to PIMCO at the annual rates stated above, based on the average daily net assets attributable in the aggregate to the Investing Fund's shares. The Investing Fund also indirectly pays its proportionate share of the advisory fees, supervisory and administrative fees and management fees charged by PIMCO to the Underlying Funds in which the Fund invests (collectively, the “Underlying PIMCO Fund Fees”). With respect to each Investing Fund, PIMCO has contractually agreed, through July 31, 2026, to waive first, the advisory fee and, second, to the extent necessary, the supervisory and administrative fee it receives from the Investing Fund in an amount equal to the Underlying PIMCO Fund Fees indirectly incurred by the Investing Fund in connection with its investments in Underlying Funds up to a maximum waived amount that is equal to the Investing Fund's aggregate advisory fee and supervisory fee. This waiver will automatically renew for one-year terms unless PIMCO provides written notice to the Trust at least 30 days prior to the end of the then current term. Investors should be aware that an Underlying Fund may engage in securities lending transactions, and the cash collateral received by an Underlying Fund engaging in a securities lending transaction may be invested in short-term liquid fixed income instruments or in money market or short-term funds, or similar investment vehicles, including affiliated money market or short-term funds, as further described in such Underlying Fund’s registration statement. In such case, the Underlying Fund will incur investment advisory fees, supervisory and administrative fees, service fees or other fees in connection with such investment of cash collateral. Ultimately, such fees will be borne by the Investing Fund and will not be waived under the contractual waiver described above.

The Trustees are responsible generally for overseeing the management of the Trust. The Trustees authorize the Trust to enter into service agreements with the Investment Adviser, the Distributor (as defined below), the Administrator and other service providers in order to provide, and in some cases authorize service providers to procure through other parties, necessary or desirable services on behalf of the Trust and the Funds. Shareholders are not parties to or third-party beneficiaries of such service agreements. Neither this prospectus nor summary prospectus, the Trust’s SAI, any contracts filed as exhibits to the Trust’s registration statement, nor any other communications, disclosure documents or regulatory filings from or on behalf of the Trust or a Fund creates a contract between or among any shareholder of a Fund, on the one hand, and the Trust, a Fund, a service provider to the Trust or a Fund, and/or the Trustees or officers of the Trust, on the other hand. The Trustees (or the Trust and its officers, service providers or other delegates acting under authority of the Trustees) may amend this, or use a new prospectus, summary prospectus or SAI with respect to a Fund or the Trust, and/or amend, file and/or issue any other communications, disclosure documents or regulatory filings, and may amend or enter into any contracts to which the Trust or a Fund is a party, and interpret the investment objective(s), policies, restrictions and contractual provisions applicable to any Fund, without shareholder input or approval, except in circumstances in which shareholder approval is specifically required by law (such as changes to fundamental investment policies) or where a shareholder approval requirement is specifically disclosed in the Trust’s then-current prospectus or SAI.

Classes of Shares

Class A, Class C, Class R, Institutional Class, I-2, I-3 and Administrative Class shares of the Funds are offered in this prospectus. Each share class represents an investment in the same Fund, but each class has its own expense structure and arrangements for shareholder services or distribution, which allows you to choose the class that best fits your situation and eligibility requirements.

The class of shares that is best for you depends upon a number of factors, including the amount and the intended length of your investment, the expenses borne by each class, which are detailed in the fee table and example at the front of this prospectus, any initial sales charge or contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) applicable to a class and whether you qualify for any reduction or waiver of sales charges, and the availability of the share class for purchase by you. Certain classes have higher expenses than other classes, which may lower the return on your investment when compared to a less expensive class. Individual investors can generally invest in Class A and Class C shares. Class C shares of each Fund will automatically convert into Class A shares of the same Fund after they have been held for eight years. In addition, any Class C shares held in Orphaned Accounts (as defined below) will automatically convert into Class A shares of the same Fund. Certain shareholder accounts are maintained with the Trust’s Transfer Agent and list a broker-dealer of record (“Prior Broker-Dealer of Record”) other than the Distributor, and if, subsequently, such Prior Broker-Dealer of Record resigns from the account resulting in such account being held directly with the Trust and the Distributor becoming the default dealer of record for such account, then such account would be referred to as an “Orphaned Account.” These automatic conversions will be executed without any sales charge, fee or other charge. After such a conversion takes place, the shares will be subject to all features and expenses of Class A shares. Only certain investors may purchase Institutional Class, I-2, I-3, Administrative Class and Class R shares.

The availability of sales charge waivers and discounts may depend on whether you purchase Fund shares directly from the Distributor or a financial firm. More information regarding sales charge waivers and discounts is summarized below.

The following summarizes key information about each class to help you make your investment decision, including the various expenses associated with each class and the payments made to financial firms for distribution and other services. More information about the Trust’s multi-class arrangements is included in the SAI and can be obtained free of charge by visiting pimco.com or by calling 888.87.PIMCO.

Sales Charges

Initial Sales Charges — Class A Shares

This section includes important information about sales charge reduction programs available to investors in Class A shares of the Funds and describes information or records you may need to provide to the Distributor or your financial firm in order to be eligible for sales charge reduction programs.

Unless you are eligible for a waiver, the public offering price you pay when you buy Class A shares of the Funds is the NAV of the shares plus an initial sales charge. The initial sales charge varies depending upon the size of your purchase, as set forth below. No sales charge is imposed where Class A shares are issued to you pursuant to the automatic reinvestment of income dividends or capital gains distributions. For investors investing in Class A shares of the Funds through a financial firm, it is the responsibility of the financial firm to ensure that you obtain the proper “breakpoint” discount.

PIMCO Climate Bond Fund, PIMCO Total Return ESG Fund and PIMCO Total Return Fund V - Class A Shares

Amount of Purchase	Initial Sales Charge as % of Public Offering Price	Initial Sales Charge as % of Net Amount Invested
Under $100,000	2.25 %	2.30 %
$100,000 but under $250,000	1.25 %	1.27 %
$250,000+	0.00 %	0.00 %*

As shown, investors that purchase $250,000 or more of the Fund’s Class A shares will not pay any initial sales charge on the purchase. However, unless eligible for a waiver, certain purchasers of $250,000 or more of Class A shares may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.00% if the shares are redeemed during the first 12 months after their purchase. See “Contingent Deferred Sales Charges - Class A Shares” below.

All other Funds — Class A Shares

Amount of Purchase	Initial Sales Charge as % of Public Offering Price	Initial Sales Charge as % of Net Amount Invested
Under $100,000	3.75 %	3.90 %
$100,000 but under $250,000	3.25 %	3.36 %
$250,000 but under $500,000	2.25 %	2.30 %
$500,000 but under $1,000,000	1.75 %	1.78 %
$1,000,000 +	0.00 %*	0.00 %*

As shown, investors that purchase $1,000,000 or more of the Fund’s Class A shares will not pay any initial sales charge on the purchase. However, unless eligible for a waiver, purchases of $1,000,000 or more of Class A shares will be subject to a CDSC of 1.00% if the shares are redeemed during the first 12 months after their purchase. See “Sales at Net Asset Value” and “Contingent Deferred Sales Charges – Class A Shares” below.

Investors in the Funds may reduce or eliminate sales charges applicable to purchases of Class A shares through utilization of the Combined Purchase Privilege, Right of Accumulation (Cumulative Quantity Discount), Letter of Intent or Reinstatement Privilege. These programs, which apply to purchases of one or more funds that are series of the Trust or PIMCO Equity Series that offer Class A shares (other than the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) (collectively, “Eligible Funds”), are summarized below and are described in greater detail in the SAI.

single purchase (the “Combined Purchase Privilege”). In addition, a Qualifying Investor may obtain a reduced sales charge on Class A shares by adding the purchase value of Class A shares of an Eligible Fund with the current aggregate NAV of all Class A, Class C and Class C-2 shares of any Eligible Fund held by accounts for the benefit of such Qualifying Investor (the “Right of Accumulation” or “Cumulative Quantity Discount”).

The term “Qualifying Investor” refers to:

an individual, such individual’s spouse or domestic partner, as recognized by applicable state law, or such individual’s children under the age of 21 years (each a “family member”) (including family trust* accounts established by such a family member); or

a trustee or other fiduciary for a single trust (except family trusts* noted above), estate or fiduciary account although more than one beneficiary may be involved; or

an employee benefit plan of a single employer.

For the purpose of determining whether a purchase would qualify for a reduced sales charge under the Combined Purchase Privilege, Right of Accumulation or Letter of Intent, a “family trust” is one in which a family member, as defined in section (1) above, or a direct lineal descendant(s) of such person is/are the beneficiary(ies), and such person or another family member, direct lineal ancestor or sibling of such person is/are the trustee(s).

Please see the SAI for details and for restrictions applicable to shares held by certain employer-sponsored benefit programs.

Letter of Intent. Investors may also obtain a reduced sales charge on purchases of Class A shares by means of a written Letter of Intent which expresses intent to invest not less than $50,000 (or $100,000 in the case of those Funds with an initial sales charge breakpoint at $100,000) within a period of 13 months in Class A shares of any Eligible Fund(s). The maximum intended investment allowable in a Letter of Intent is $1,000,000 (except for Class A shares of the PIMCO Total Return ESG Fund and PIMCO Total Return Fund V for which the maximum intended investment amount is $250,000). Each purchase of shares under a Letter of Intent will be made at the public offering price or prices applicable at the time of such purchase to a single purchase of the dollar amount indicated in the Letter of Intent. The value of the investor’s account(s) linked to a Letter of Intent will be included at the start date of the Letter of Intent. A Letter of Intent is not a binding obligation to purchase the full amount indicated. Shares purchased with the first 5% of the amount indicated in the Letter of Intent will be held in escrow (while remaining registered in your name) to secure payment of the higher sales charges applicable to the shares actually purchased in the event the full intended amount is not purchased. Redemptions during the LOI period will not count against the shareholder, but a CDSC may be charged for LOIs of $1,000,000.

In making computations concerning the amount purchased for purposes of a Letter of Intent, the Right of Accumulation value of eligible accounts will be included in the computation when the Letter of Intent begins in addition to purchases made during the Letter of Intent Period.

Effective June 3, 2024, any current Letter of Intent (LOI) under which Class A Shares of PIMCO Mortgage-Backed Securities Fund were purchased will be considered completed. As a result, after that date,

commissions to dealers will not be adjusted or paid on the difference between the LOI amount and the amount actually invested in that Fund before June 3, 2024. This change may also apply to the LOIs described in Appendix B – Financial Firm Specific Sales Charge Waivers and Discounts. Please check with your financial intermediary.

Reinstatement Privilege. A Class A shareholder who has caused any or all of his shares to be redeemed may reinvest all or any portion of the redemption proceeds in Class A shares of any Eligible Fund at NAV without any sales charge, provided that such investment is made within 120 calendar days after the redemption date. The limitations and restrictions of this program are fully described in the SAI.

Method of Valuation of Accounts. To determine whether a shareholder qualifies for a reduction in sales charge on a purchase of Class A shares of Eligible Funds, the public offering price of the shares is used for purchases relying on the Combined Purchase Privilege or a Letter of Intent and the amount of the total current purchase (including any sales load) plus the NAV (at the close of business on the day of the current purchase) of shares previously acquired is used for the Right of Accumulation (Cumulative Quantity Discount).

Sales at Net Asset Value. In addition to the programs summarized above, the Funds may sell their Class A shares at NAV without an initial sales charge to certain types of accounts or account holders, including: current or former Trustees, officers and employees of the Trust or PIMCO Equity Series, and by directors, officers and current or former employees of the Distributor, PIMCO, or certain of PIMCO’s affiliates if the account was established while employed; participants investing through accounts known as “wrap accounts” established with broker-dealers approved by the Distributor where such broker-dealers are paid a single, inclusive fee for brokerage and investment management services; trustees or other fiduciaries purchasing shares through certain group omnibus plans (such as 401(k), 403(b), Health Savings Accounts, 457, Profit Sharing/Keogh, Money Purchase Pension and Defined Benefit plans; not including individual participant directed accounts (i.e., accounts listed in the Fund’s records as for the benefit of a named individual), SEP-IRAs, SIMPLE IRAs, SARSEP IRAs and 403(b)7 custodial accounts) sponsored by employers, professional organizations or associations, or charitable organizations that qualify for 501(c)(3) status under the Internal Revenue Code; investors engaging in certain transactions related to IRAs or other qualified retirement plan accounts; retirement plans that are maintained or sponsored by financial firms, provided the financial firms have entered into an agreement with the Distributor related to such plans; investors making certain purchases following the announcement of a Fund or share class liquidation or following certain share class conversions; and any other person seeking a waiver for which the Distributor determines that there will be minimal cost borne by the Distributor associated with the sale. What qualifies as “minimal cost” borne by the Distributor will be determined in the sole discretion of the Distributor, but will be applied uniformly to all shareholders seeking a waiver for which there will be such minimal cost. Please see the SAI for additional details.

If you are eligible to buy both Class A shares and Institutional Class shares, you should buy Institutional Class shares because Class A shares may be subject to sales charges and an annual 0.25% service fee.

Required Shareholder Information and Records. In order for investors in Class A shares of the Funds to take advantage of sales charge reductions, an investor or his or her financial firm must notify the Fund that the investor qualifies for such a reduction. If a Fund is not notified that the investor is eligible for these reductions, the Fund will be unable to ensure that the reduction is applied to the investor’s account. An investor may have to provide certain information or records to his or her financial firm or the Fund to verify the investor’s eligibility for breakpoint discounts or sales charge waivers. An investor may be asked to provide information or records, including account statements, regarding shares of the Funds or other Eligible Funds held in:

■

all of the investor’s accounts held directly with the Trust or through a financial firm;

■

any account of the investor at another financial firm; and

■

accounts of Qualifying Investors, at any financial firm.

Contingent Deferred Sales Charges

Class A Shares

Unless you are eligible for a waiver, if you purchase $1,000,000 ($250,000 in the case of the PIMCO Total Return ESG Fund and PIMCO Total Return Fund V) or more of Class A shares (and, thus, pay no initial sales charge) of a Fund, you will be subject to a 1% CDSC if you sell (redeem) your Class A shares within 12 months of their purchase.

The Class A CDSC does not apply if you are otherwise eligible to purchase Class A shares without an initial sales charge or are eligible for a waiver of the CDSC. See “Reductions and Waivers of Initial Sales Charges and CDSCs” below.

Class C Shares

Unless you are eligible for a waiver, if you sell (redeem) your Class C shares within the time periods specified below, you will pay a CDSC according to the following schedules. If you invest in Class C shares of the Funds through a financial firm, it is the responsibility of the financial firm to ensure that you are credited with the proper holding period for the shares redeemed.

Class C Shares*

Years Since Purchase Payment was Made	Percentage Contingent Deferred Sales Charge
First	1 %
Thereafter	0 %

Except shares of the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund that were not acquired by exchanging Class C shares of another Fund.

How CDSCs will be Calculated

A CDSC is imposed on redemptions of Class C shares (and where applicable, Class A shares) on the amount of the redemption which causes the current value of your account for the particular class of shares of a Fund to fall below the total dollar amount of your purchase payments subject to the CDSC.

The following rules apply under the method for calculating CDSCs:

■

Shares acquired through the reinvestment of dividends or capital gains distributions will be redeemed first and will not be subject to any CDSC.

■

For the redemption of all other shares, the CDSC will be based on either your original purchase price or the then current NAV of the shares being sold, whichever is lower. To illustrate this point, consider shares purchased at an NAV of $10. If a Fund’s NAV per share at the time of redemption is $12, the CDSC will apply to the purchase price of $10. If the NAV per share at the time of redemption is $8, the CDSC will apply to the $8 current NAV per share.

■

CDSCs will be deducted from the proceeds of your redemption, not from amounts remaining in your account.

■

In determining whether a CDSC is payable, it is assumed that you will redeem first the lot of shares which will incur the lowest CDSC.

For example, the following illustrates the operation of the Class C CDSC:

■

Assume that an individual opens an account and makes a purchase payment of $10,000 for 1,000 Class C shares of a Fund (at $10 per share) and that six months later the value of the investor’s account for that Fund has grown through investment performance to $11,000 ($11 per share). If the investor should redeem $2,200 (200 shares), a CDSC would be applied against $2,000 of the redemption (the purchase price of the shares redeemed, because the purchase price is lower than the current NAV of such shares ($2,200)). At the rate of 1%, the Class C CDSC would be $20.

certain reorganizations and liquidations; redemptions by certain shareholders demonstrating hardship and/or there will be minimal cost borne by the Distributor associated with the redemption; certain intra-fund exchanges of Class A shares for Institutional Class shares; redemptions by retirement plans that are maintained or sponsored by financial firms, provided the financial firms have entered into an agreement with the Distributor related to such plans; redemptions by a shareholder who is a participant making periodic purchases through certain employer sponsored retirement plans that are clients of a financial firm with which the Distributor has an agreement with respect to such purchases; and redemptions effected by trustees or other fiduciaries who have purchased shares for certain employer-sponsored plans. In addition, investors will not be subject to CDSCs for certain transactions where the Distributor did not pay at the time of purchase the amount it normally would have to the broker-dealer. What qualifies as “hardship” and “minimal cost” borne by the Distributor will be determined in the sole discretion of the Distributor. The Distributor follows how Internal Revenue Service regulations classify “hardship” – a financial hardship may occur when an individual has an immediate and heavy financial need and the money to be withdrawn from the shareholder’s account is necessary to meet that need. The Distributor generally determines a CDSC waiver or reduction to be of “minimal cost” where the shareholder can demonstrate that the redemption triggering the CDSC was inadvertently executed during the period subject to the CDSC and substantially all of the CDSC period has lapsed. Please see the SAI for additional details.

Shares Purchased or Held Through Financial Firms

The availability of sales charge waivers and discounts may depend on the particular financial firm or type of account through which you purchase or hold Fund shares. The Funds' sales charge waivers and discounts disclosed in this Prospectus are available for qualifying purchases made directly from the Distributor and are generally available through financial firms unless otherwise specified in Appendix B. The sales charge waivers and discounts available through certain other financial firms are set forth in Appendix B to this Prospectus (Financial Firm-Specific Sales Charge Waivers and Discounts), which may differ from those available for purchases made directly from the Distributor or certain other financial firms. Please contact your financial firm for more information regarding sales charge waivers and discounts available to you and the financial firm’s related policies and procedures.

No Sales Charges — Class R Shares

specified benefit plans where Class R shares are held on the books of the Funds through omnibus accounts (either at the benefit plan level or at the level of the plan’s financial firm). Class R shares are not available to retail or non-specified benefit plan accounts, traditional and Roth IRAs (except through certain omnibus accounts), Coverdell Education Savings Accounts, SEPs, SAR-SEPs, SIMPLE IRAs, or individual 403(b) plans.

The administrator of a specified benefit plan or employee benefits office can provide participants with detailed information on how to participate in the plan and how to elect a Fund as an investment option. Plan participants may be permitted to elect different investment options, alter the amounts contributed to the plan, or change how contributions are allocated among investment options in accordance with the plan’s specific provisions. The plan administrator or employee benefits office should be consulted for details. For questions about participant accounts, participants should contact their employee benefits office, the plan administrator, or the organization that provides recordkeeping services for the plan. In most cases, the Trust’s transfer agent will have no information with respect to or control over accounts of specific Class R shareholders, and a shareholder may obtain information about accounts only through the specified benefit plan.

Eligible specified benefit plans generally may open an account and purchase Class R shares by contacting any broker, dealer or other financial firm authorized to sell or process transactions in Class R shares of the Funds. Eligible specified benefit plans may also purchase shares directly from the Distributor. See “Purchasing Shares – Class R” below. Additional shares may be purchased through a benefit plan’s administrator or recordkeeper.

Financial firms may provide or arrange for the provision of some or all of the shareholder servicing and account maintenance services required by specified benefit plan accounts and their plan participants, including, without limitation, transfers of registration and dividend payee changes.

Moreover, financial firms and specified benefit plans may have omnibus accounts and similar arrangements with the Trust and may be paid for providing sub-accounting and other shareholder services. A financial firm or specified benefit plan may be paid for its services directly or indirectly by the Funds, the Administrator, another affiliate of the Fund or the Distributor (normally not to exceed an annual rate of 0.50% of a Fund’s average daily net assets attributable to its Class R shares and purchased through such firm or specified benefit plan for its clients although payments with respect to shares in retirement plans are often higher). PIMCO or its affiliates may pay a financial firm or specified benefit plan an additional amount not to exceed 0.25% for sub-accounting or other shareholder services.

These fees and expenses could reduce an investment return in Class R shares. For further information on Class R shares and related items, please refer to the SAI.

PIMCO Funds

No Sales Charges — Institutional Class, I-2, I-3 and Administrative Class Shares

The Funds do not impose any sales charges or other fees on purchases, redemptions or exchanges of Institutional Class, I-2, I-3 or Administrative Class shares. Only certain investors are eligible to purchase these share classes. Your financial professional or financial firm can help you determine if you are eligible to purchase Institutional Class, I-2, I-3 or Administrative Class shares. You can also call 888.87.PIMCO.

An investor transacting in Institutional Class shares, I-2 shares or I-3 shares may be required to pay a commission to a broker or other financial firm. Other share classes of the Funds that have different fees and expenses are available.

Pension and profit-sharing plans, employee benefit trusts and employee benefit plan alliances, and “wrap account” programs established with broker-dealers or other financial firms may purchase Institutional Class, I-2, I-3 or Administrative Class shares only if the plan or program for which the shares are being acquired will maintain an omnibus or pooled account for each Fund and will not require a Fund to pay any type of administrative payment per participant account to any third party.

Institutional Class shares are offered for direct investment by investors such as pension and profit sharing plans, employee benefit trusts, endowments, foundations, corporations and high net worth individuals. Institutional Class shares may also be offered through certain financial firms that charge their customers transaction or other fees with respect to their customers’ investments in the Funds.

I-2 shares are offered primarily through broker-dealers and other financial firms with which the Distributor has an agreement for the use of the share class in investment products, programs or accounts such as certain asset allocation, wrap fee and other similar programs. I-2 shares may also be offered through broker-dealers and other financial firms that charge their customers transaction or other fees with respect to their customers’ investments in the Funds. I-2 shares of the Funds will be held in an account at a financial firm and, generally, the firm will hold a shareholder’s I-2 shares in nominee or street name as your agent. In most cases, the Trust’s transfer agent will have no information with respect to or control over accounts of specific I-2 shareholders, and a shareholder may obtain information about accounts only through the financial firm. Broker-dealers, other financial firms, pension and profit-sharing plans, employee benefit trusts and employee benefit plan alliances also may purchase I-2 shares.

I-3 shares of the Funds are offered primarily through broker-dealers and other financial firms with which the Distributor has an agreement for the use of the share class in investment products, programs or accounts such as mutual fund supermarkets or other no transaction fee platforms. I-3 shares of the Funds will be held in an account at a financial firm and, generally, the firm will hold a shareholder’s I-3 shares in nominee or street name as your agent. In most cases, the Trust’s transfer agent will have no information with respect to or control over accounts of specific I-3 shareholders, and a shareholder may obtain information about accounts only through the financial firm. Broker-dealers, other financial

firms, pension and profit-sharing plans, employee benefit trusts and employee benefit plan alliances also may purchase I-3 shares.

Administrative Class shares are offered primarily through broker-dealers, other financial firms, and employee benefit plan alliances. Each Fund typically pays service and/or distribution fees to these entities for services they provide to Administrative Class shareholders.

Distribution and Servicing (12b-1) Plans

Class A, Class C and Class R Shares. The Funds pay fees to the Distributor on an ongoing basis as compensation for the services the Distributor renders and the expenses it bears in connection with the sale and distribution of Fund shares (“distribution fees”) and/or in connection with personal services rendered to Fund shareholders and the maintenance of shareholder accounts (“servicing fees”). These payments are made pursuant to Distribution and Servicing Plans (“12b-1 Plans”) adopted by each Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act.

Class A shares pay only servicing fees. Class C and Class R shares pay both distribution and servicing fees. The following lists the maximum annual rates at which the distribution and/or servicing fees may be paid under each 12b-1 Plan (calculated as a percentage of each Fund’s average daily net assets attributable to the particular class of shares):

Class A	Servicing Fee	Distribution Fee
All Funds	0.25 %	0.00 %

Class C	Servicing Fee	Distribution Fee
All Funds	0.25 %	0.75 %

Class R	Servicing Fee	Distribution Fee
All Funds	0.25 %	0.25 %

Because distribution fees are paid out of the Fund's assets on an ongoing basis, over time these fees will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than other types of sales charges, such as sales charges that are deducted at the time of investment. Therefore, although Class C and Class R shares do not pay initial sales charges, the distribution fees payable on Class C and Class R shares may, over time, cost you more than the initial sales charge imposed on Class A shares.

Administrative Class Shares. The Trust has adopted, pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, a separate Distribution and Servicing Plan for the Administrative Class shares of the Funds. The Distribution and Servicing Plan permits the Funds to compensate the Distributor for providing or procuring through financial firms, distribution, administrative, recordkeeping, shareholder and/or related services with respect to the Administrative Class shares. Most or all of the distribution and service (12b-1) fees are paid to financial firms through which shareholders may purchase or hold shares. Because these fees are paid out of a Fund’s Administrative Class assets on an ongoing basis, over time they will increase the cost of an investment in Administrative Class

shares, and may cost you more than paying other types of sales charges, such as sales charges that are deducted at the time of investment.

The following lists the maximum annual rates at which the distribution and/or servicing fees may be paid under each Distribution and Servicing Plan (calculated as a percentage of each Fund’s average daily net assets attributable to the particular class of shares):

Administrative Class	Distribution and/ or Servicing Fee
All Funds	0.25 %

Servicing Arrangements

Shares of the Funds may be available through broker-dealers, banks, trust companies, insurance companies and other financial firms that have entered into shareholder servicing arrangements with respect to the Funds. A financial firm is one that, in exchange for compensation, sells, among other products, mutual fund shares (including the shares offered in this prospectus) or provides services for mutual fund shareholders. These financial firms provide varying investment products, programs, platforms and accounts, through which investors may purchase, redeem and exchange shares of the Funds. Shareholder servicing arrangements typically include processing orders for shares, generating account and confirmation statements, sub-accounting, account maintenance, tax reporting, collecting and posting distributions to investor accounts and disbursing cash dividends as well as other investment or administrative services required for the particular firm’s products, programs, platform and accounts.

PIMCO and/or its affiliates may make payments to financial firms for the shareholder services provided. These payments are made out of PIMCO’s resources, including the supervisory and administrative fees paid to PIMCO under the Funds' supervision and administration agreement. The actual services provided by these firms, and the payments made for such services, vary from firm to firm. The payments may be based on a fixed dollar amount for each account and position maintained by the financial firm and/or a percentage of the value of shares held by investors through the firm. Please see the SAI for more information.

These payments may be material to financial firms relative to other compensation paid by the Funds, PIMCO and/or its affiliates and may be in addition to other fees and payments, such as distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, revenue sharing or “shelf space” fees and event support, other non-cash compensation and charitable contributions paid to or at the request of such firms (described below). Also, the payments may differ depending on the Fund or share class and may vary from amounts paid to the Funds' transfer agent for providing similar services to other accounts. PIMCO and/or its affiliates do not control these financial firms’ provision of the services for which they are receiving payments.

connection with purchases, redemptions and exchanges of shares in addition to any fees imposed by the Funds. These additional fees may vary and over time could increase the cost of an investment in the Funds and lower investment returns. Each financial firm is responsible for transmitting to its customers and program participants a schedule of any such fees and information regarding any additional or different conditions regarding purchases, redemptions and exchanges.

Shareholders who are customers of these financial firms or participants in programs serviced by them should contact the financial firm for information regarding these fees and conditions.

Other Payments to Financial Firms

Some or all of the sales charges, distribution fees and servicing fees described above are paid or “reallowed” to the financial firm, including their financial professionals through which you purchase your shares. With respect to Class C shares, the financial firms are also paid at the time of your purchase a commission of up to 1.00% of your investment in such share class. Please see the SAI for more details.

Revenue Sharing/Marketing Support. The Distributor or PIMCO (for purposes of this subsection only, collectively, “PIMCO”) make payments and provide other incentives to financial firms as compensation for services such as providing the Funds with “shelf space,” or a higher profile for the financial firms’ financial professionals and their customers, placing the Funds on the financial firms’ preferred or recommended fund list, granting PIMCO access to the financial firms’ financial professionals and furnishing marketing support and other specified services. These payments may be significant to the financial firms.

A number of factors are considered in determining the amount of these additional payments to financial firms. On some occasions, such payments may be conditioned upon levels of sales, including the sale of a specified minimum dollar amount of the shares of a Fund and/or other funds sponsored by PIMCO together or a particular class of shares, during a specified period of time. PIMCO also makes payments to one or more financial firms based upon factors such as the amount of assets a financial firm’s clients have invested in the Funds and the quality of the financial firm’s relationship with PIMCO and/or its affiliates. The Distributor also makes payments to one or more financial firms based on the levels of advisory fees of the Funds.

shares (Class R shares, if applicable) of the Trust and PIMCO Equity Series by such financial firm; and (b) an annual rate of 0.03% of the assets attributable to that financial firm invested in Class A and Class C shares (Class R shares, if applicable) of the funds of the Trust and funds of PIMCO Equity Series (as determined by the contractual arrangement between the parties, which may, among other things, exclude certain assets from the calculation) (the “10/3 cap”); or (2) an annual rate of 0.05% of the assets attributable to that financial firm invested in Class A and Class C shares (Class R shares, if applicable) of the Funds and PIMCO Equity Series (as determined by the contractual arrangement between the parties, which may, among other things, exclude certain assets from the calculation) (the “5bp cap”). Only agreements entered into on or after April 1, 2021 will be eligible, in PIMCO’s discretion, for the 5bp cap. The determination of which limit applies will vary pursuant to the terms of each agreement. In certain cases, the payments are subject to minimum payment levels or vary based on the advisory fee or total expense ratio of the relevant Fund(s). In lieu of payments pursuant to the foregoing formula, PIMCO or its affiliates makes, in certain instances, payments of an agreed upon amount which normally will not exceed the amount that would have been payable pursuant to the formula.

Financial firms with a combined AUM in excess of $5 billion in Class A, Class C and I-2 shares of funds of the Trust and PIMCO Equity Series as of the effective date of a written agreement with PIMCO to receive revenue sharing payments on the applicable share class (for purposes of this paragraph, “Eligible Firms”) are eligible for marketing support payments beyond those described in the preceding paragraph on certain Eligible Assets (as defined below). The total payment in any billing period (as determined by the contractual arrangement between the parties) to any Eligible Firm with an agreement to receive revenue sharing payments on I-2 shares generally shall not exceed 0.05% of the combined Eligible Assets of Class A, Class C and I-2 shares of the funds of the Trust and PIMCO Equity Series. Should any Eligible Firm not collect marketing support on I-2 shares, the total payment to such Eligible Firm generally shall not exceed the greater of: (a) 0.05% of Eligible Assets of Class A and Class C shares of funds of the Trust and funds of PIMCO Equity Series; or (b) the 10/3 cap with respect to Class A and Class C shares only. With respect to the Eligible Firms receiving marketing support payments with respect to I-2 shares pursuant to this paragraph, payments may be lower for particular funds of the Trust or funds of PIMCO Equity Series as compared to other funds of the Trust or funds of PIMCO Equity Series. “Eligible Assets” for purposes of this paragraph are all assets of Class A, Class C and I-2 shares of funds of the Trust and funds of PIMCO Equity Series attributable to such Eligible Firm less any such assets attributable to the Eligible Firm that the Eligible Firm instructs PIMCO in writing to exclude.Although these payments are made from PIMCO’s own assets, in some cases the levels of such payments may vary by Fund or share class in relation to advisory fees, total annual operating expenses or other payments made by the Fund or share class to PIMCO. These additional payments by PIMCO may be made to financial firms (as selected by PIMCO) that have sold significant amounts of shares of the Funds.

Model Portfolios. Payments for revenue sharing, in certain circumstances, may also be made to financial firms in connection with the distribution of model portfolios developed by PIMCO, such as through inclusion of such model portfolios on a financial firm’s platform, as well as in connection with the marketing and sale of, and/or product training regarding such model portfolios, or servicing of accounts tracking such model portfolios. Such payments may be flat fee payments for “platform support” as defined below, or other payments in the form of a flat fee or a per position fee, or may relate to the amount of assets a financial firm’s clients invested in the Funds, the advisory fee, the total expense ratio (not including interest expenses), or sales of any share class, of the Funds in such PIMCO-developed models. The cap rates set forth under “Revenue Sharing/Marketing Support” above do not apply to payments for the marketing and sale of model portfolios.

Ticket Charges. In addition to the payments described above, PIMCO makes payments to financial firms in connection with certain transaction fees (also referred to as “ticket charges”) incurred by the financial firms.

Event Support; Other Non-Cash Compensation; Charitable Contributions. In addition to the payments described above, PIMCO pays and/or reimburses, at its own expense, financial firms’ sponsorship and/or attendance at conferences, seminars or informational meetings (which may include events held through video technology to the extent permitted by applicable regulation) (“event support”), provides financial firms or their personnel with occasional tickets to events or other entertainment (which in some instances is held virtually), meals and small gifts and pays or provides reimbursement for reasonable travel and lodging expenses for attendees of PIMCO educational events (“other non-cash compensation”), and makes charitable contributions to valid charitable organizations at the request of financial firms (“charitable contributions”) to the extent permitted by applicable law, rules and regulations.

Visits; Training; Education. In addition to the payments described above, wholesale representatives and employees of PIMCO or its affiliates visit financial firms on a regular basis to educate financial professionals and other personnel about the Funds and to encourage the sale or recommendation of Fund shares to their clients. PIMCO may also provide (or compensate consultants or other third parties to provide) other relevant training and education to a financial firm’s financial professionals and other personnel.

firms and their affiliates and may execute brokerage transactions on behalf of the Funds with such financial firms’ affiliates. These financial firms or their affiliates may, in the ordinary course of their financial firm business, recommend that their clients utilize PIMCO’s investment advisory services or invest in the Funds or in other products sponsored or distributed by PIMCO or its affiliates. Some platform support arrangements also may entitle the Distributor or PIMCO to ancillary benefits such as reduced fees to attend a financial firm’s event or conference or elimination of one-time setup fees, such as CUSIP charges that financial firms otherwise may charge. In addition, PIMCO may pay investment consultants or their affiliated companies for certain services including technology, operations, tax, or audit consulting services and may pay such firms for PIMCO’s attendance at investment forums sponsored by such firms (collectively, “consultant services”).

Data. PIMCO also may make payments or reimbursements to financial firms or their affiliated companies for various studies, surveys, industry data, research and information about, and contact information for, particular financial professionals who have sold, or may in the future sell, shares of the Funds or other PIMCO-advised funds (i.e., “data”). Such payments may relate to the amount of assets a financial firm’s clients have invested in the Funds or other PIMCO-advised funds.

Payments. Payments for items including event support, platform support, data and consultant services (but not including certain account services), as well as revenue sharing, are, in certain circumstances, bundled and allocated among these categories in PIMCO’s discretion. Portions of such bundled payments allocated by PIMCO to revenue sharing shall remain subject to the percentage limitations on revenue sharing payments disclosed above. The financial firms receiving such bundled payments may characterize or allocate the payments differently from PIMCO’s internal allocation. In addition, payments made by PIMCO to a financial firm and allocated by PIMCO to a particular category of services can in some cases result in benefits related to, or enhance the eligibility of PIMCO or a Fund to receive, services provided by the financial firm that may be characterized or allocated to one or more other categories of services.

If investment advisers, distributors or affiliated persons of mutual funds make payments and provide other incentives in differing amounts, financial firms and their financial professionals may have financial incentives for recommending a particular mutual fund over other mutual funds. In addition, depending on the arrangements in place at any particular time, a financial firm and its financial professionals also may have a financial incentive for recommending a particular share class over other share classes. A shareholder who holds Fund shares through a financial firm should consult with the shareholder’s financial professional and review carefully any disclosure by the financial firm as to its compensation received by the financial professional.

Although the Funds may use financial firms that sell Fund shares to effect transactions for the Funds' portfolios, the Funds and PIMCO will not consider the sale of Fund shares as a factor when choosing financial firms to effect those transactions.

For further details about payments made by PIMCO to financial firms, please see the SAI.

■

Through the Distributor. You should discuss your investment with your financial professional before you make a purchase to be sure a Fund is appropriate for you.

The Trust and the Distributor each reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to suspend the offering of shares of the Funds or to reject any purchase order, in whole or in part, when, in the judgment of management, such suspension or rejection is in the best interests of the Trust or for other reasons such as compliance with anti-money laundering or sanctions obligations and requirements.

Subject to the approval of the Trust, an investor may purchase shares of a Fund with liquid securities that are eligible for purchase by the Fund (consistent with the Fund’s investment policies and restrictions) and that have a value that is readily ascertainable in accordance with the Trust’s valuation policies, except as otherwise allowed by law or applicable Fund policy. These transactions will be effected only if PIMCO intends to retain the security in the Fund as an investment. Assets purchased by the Fund in such a transaction will be valued in generally the same manner as they would be valued for purposes of pricing the Fund’s shares, if such assets were included in the Fund’s assets at the time of purchase. The Trust reserves the right to amend or terminate this practice at any time.

In the interest of economy and convenience, certificates for shares will not be issued.

Redeeming Shares — Class A and Class C

You can redeem (sell) Class A or Class C shares of the Funds in the following ways:

■

Through your broker-dealer or other financial firm. Your broker-dealer or other financial firm may independently charge you transaction fees and additional amounts in return for its services, which will reduce your return.

■

Redemptions by Telephone. An investor that elects this option on the Account Application (or subsequently in writing) may request redemptions of Class A and Class C shares by calling the Trust at 1.888.87.PIMCO. An Authorized Person must state his or her name, account name, account number, name of Fund and share class, and redemption amount (in dollars or shares). Redemption requests of an amount of $10 million or more must be submitted in writing by an Authorized Person.

■

Directly from the Trust by Written Request. To redeem shares directly from the Trust by written request, you must send the following items to the PIMCO Funds, P.O. Box 219294, Kansas City, MO 64121-9294:

a written request for redemption signed by all registered owners exactly as the account is registered on the Transfer Agent’s records, including fiduciary titles, if any, and specifying the account number and the dollar amount or number of shares to be redeemed;

for certain redemptions described below, a guarantee of all signatures on the written request or on the share certificate or accompanying stock power, if required, as described under “Signature Validation” below;

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus 99

PIMCO Funds

any share certificates issued for any of the shares to be redeemed (see “Certificated Shares” below); and

any additional documents which may be required by the Transfer Agent for redemption by corporations, partnerships or other organizations, executors, administrators, trustees, custodians or guardians, or if the redemption is requested by anyone other than the shareholder(s) of record. Transfers of shares are subject to the same requirements.

A signature validation is not required for redemptions requested by and payable to all shareholders of record for the account, and to be sent to the address of record for that account. To avoid delay in redemption or transfer, if you have any questions about these requirements you should contact the Transfer Agent in writing or call 888.87.PIMCO before submitting a request. Written redemption or transfer requests will not be honored until all required documents in the proper form have been received by the Transfer Agent. You cannot redeem your shares by written request if they are held in “street name” accounts—you must redeem through your financial firm.

If the proceeds of your redemption (i) are to be paid to a person other than the record owner, (ii) are to be sent to an address other than the address of the account on the Transfer Agent’s records, and/or (iii) are to be paid to a corporation, partnership, trust or fiduciary, the signature(s) on the redemption request and on the certificates, if any, or stock power must be guaranteed as described under “Signature Validation” below.

The SAI describes a number of additional ways you can redeem your shares, including:

■

Telephone requests to the Transfer Agent

■

Online Account Access

■

Expedited wire transfers

■

Automatic Withdrawal Plan

■

Automated Clearing House (ACH) Network

Unless you specifically elect otherwise, your initial Account Application permits you to redeem shares by telephone subject to certain requirements. To be eligible for expedited wire transfer, Automatic Withdrawal Plan, and ACH privileges, you must specifically elect the particular option on your Account Application and satisfy certain other requirements. The SAI describes each of these options and provides additional information about selling shares.

Other than an applicable CDSC, you will not pay any special fees or charges to the Trust or the Distributor when you sell your shares. However, if you sell your shares through your broker, dealer or other financial firm, that firm may charge you a commission or other fee for processing your redemption request.

Redeeming Shares — Class R

Class R shares may be redeemed through the investor’s plan administrator. Investors do not pay any fees or other charges to the Trust when selling shares, although specified benefit plans and financial firms may charge for their services in processing redemption requests. Please contact the plan or firm for details.

Subject to any restrictions in the applicable specified benefit plan documents, plan administrators are obligated to transmit redemption orders to the Trust’s Transfer Agent or their financial service firm promptly and are responsible for ensuring that redemption requests are in proper form. Specified benefit plans and financial firms will be responsible for furnishing all necessary documentation to the Trust’s Transfer Agent and may charge for their services.

The redemption request should state the Fund from which the shares are to be redeemed, the class of shares, the number or dollar amount of the shares to be redeemed and the account number. The request must be signed or made by an Authorized Person.

Neither the Trust nor the Transfer Agent may be liable for any loss, cost or expense for acting on instructions (including those by fax or e-mail) believed by the party receiving such instructions to be genuine and in accordance with the procedures described in this prospectus. Shareholders should realize that by utilizing fax or e-mail redemption, they may be giving up a measure of security that they might have if they were to redeem their shares by mail. Furthermore, interruptions in service may mean that a shareholder will be unable to effect a redemption by fax or e-mail when desired. The Transfer Agent also provides written confirmation of transactions as a procedure designed to confirm that instructions are genuine.

All redemptions, whether initiated by mail, fax or e-mail, will be processed in a timely manner, and proceeds will be forwarded by wire in accordance with the redemption policies of the Trust detailed below. See “Redeeming Shares—Additional Information.”

In electing a telephone redemption, the investor authorizes PIMCO and the Transfer Agent to act on telephone instructions from any person representing him or herself to be an Authorized Person, and reasonably believed by PIMCO or the Transfer Agent to be genuine. Neither the Trust nor the Transfer Agent may be liable for any loss, cost or expense for acting on instructions (including by telephone) believed by the party receiving such instructions to be genuine and in accordance with the procedures described in this prospectus. Shareholders should realize that by electing the telephone option, they may be giving up a measure of security that they might have if they were to redeem their shares in writing. Furthermore, interruptions in service may mean that shareholders will be unable to redeem their shares by telephone when desired. The Transfer Agent also provides written confirmation of transactions initiated by telephone as a procedure designed to confirm that telephone instructions are genuine. All telephone transactions are recorded, and PIMCO or the Transfer Agent may request certain information in order to verify that the person giving instructions is authorized to do so. The Trust or Transfer Agent may be liable for any losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent telephone transactions if it fails to employ reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine. All redemptions initiated by telephone will be processed in a timely manner, and proceeds will be forwarded by wire in accordance with the redemption policies of the Trust detailed below. See “Redeeming Shares—Additional Information.”

An Authorized Person may decline telephone exchange or redemption privileges after an account is opened by providing the Transfer Agent a letter of instruction signed by an Authorized Signer. Shareholders may experience delays in exercising telephone redemption privileges during periods of abnormal market activity. During periods of volatile economic or market conditions, shareholders may wish to consider transmitting redemption orders by facsimile, e-mail or overnight courier.

Defined contribution plan participants may request redemptions by contacting the employee benefits office, the plan administrator or the organization that provides recordkeeping services for the plan.

Redeeming Shares — I-2 and I-3

An investor may redeem (sell) I-2 or I-3 shares through the investor’s financial firm. Investors do not pay any fees or other charges to the Trust when selling I-2 or I-3 shares. Please contact the financial firm for details.

A financial firm is obligated to transmit an investor’s redemption orders to the Transfer Agent promptly and is responsible for ensuring that a redemption request is in proper form. The financial firm will be responsible for furnishing all necessary documentation to the Transfer Agent and may charge for its services.

Redeeming Shares — Additional Information

Redemptions of all Classes of Fund shares may be made on any day the NYSE is open, but may be suspended when trading on the NYSE is restricted or during an emergency which makes it impracticable for the Funds to dispose of their securities or to determine fairly the value of their net assets, or during any other period as permitted by the SEC for the protection of investors. Under these and other unusual circumstances, the Trust may suspend redemptions or postpone payment for more than seven days, as permitted by law.

In addition, a temporary hold may be placed on the disbursement of redemption proceeds from an account if there is a reasonable belief that financial exploitation of a Specified Adult (as defined below) has occurred, is occurring, has been attempted, or will be attempted. Notice of such a delay will be provided in accordance with regulatory requirements. This temporary hold will be for an initial period of no more than 15 business days while an internal review of the facts and circumstances of the suspected financial exploitation is conducted, but the temporary hold may be extended for up to 10 additional business days if the internal review supports the belief that financial exploitation has occurred, is occurring, has been attempted, or will be attempted. Both the initial and additional hold on the disbursement may be terminated or extended by a state regulator or an agency or court of competent jurisdiction. For purposes of this paragraph, the term “Specified Adult” refers to an individual who is (A) a natural person age 65 and older; or (B) a natural person age 18 and older who is reasonably believed to have a mental or physical impairment that renders the individual unable to protect his or her own interests.

Following the receipt of a redemption request, redemption proceeds will normally be mailed to the redeeming shareholder within three calendar days or, in the case of wire transfer or ACH redemptions, will normally be sent to the designated bank account within one business day. Institutional Class shareholders may only receive redemption proceeds via wire transfer or ACH redemptions. ACH redemptions may be received by the bank on the second or third business day following a redemption request, but in either case may take up to seven days. In cases where shares have recently been purchased by personal check (Class A, Class C or Class R shareholders only), redemption proceeds may be withheld until the check has been collected, which may take up to 10 calendar days. To avoid such withholding, investors in Class A, Class C or Class R shares should purchase shares by certified or bank check or by wire transfer.

For shareholder protection, a request to change information contained in an account registration (for example, a request to change the bank designated to receive wire redemption proceeds) must be received in writing, signed by the minimum number of Authorized Persons designated on the completed Account Application that are required to effect a redemption, and accompanied by a signature validation, as determined in accordance with the Trust’s procedures, as more fully described below.

PIMCO Funds

be stricter than those described in this section. You should contact your plan sponsor, recordkeeper or financial intermediary for more information on any additional restrictions, limitations or fees that are imposed in connection with transactions in Fund shares.

In order to meet redemption requests, the Funds typically expect to use a combination of sales of portfolio assets, in-kind transactions, holdings of cash and cash equivalents (including cash flows into the Funds) and financing transactions (such as reverse repurchase agreements). These methods of meeting redemption requests are expected to be used regularly. The Funds reserve the right to use other types of borrowings and interfund lending. The use of borrowings (such as a line of credit) and interfund lending in order to meet redemption requests is typically expected to be used only during stressed market conditions, if at all. See “Characteristics and Risks of Securities and Investment Techniques—Reverse Repurchase Agreements, Dollar Rolls and Other Borrowings” and the SAI for more information. The Funds' use of redemptions in kind is discussed below.

Redemptions In Kind

The Trust has agreed to redeem shares of each Fund solely in cash up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the Fund’s net assets during any 90-day period for any one shareholder. In consideration of the best interests of the remaining shareholders, the Trust reserves the right to pay any redemption proceeds exceeding this amount in whole or in part by a distribution in kind of securities held by a Fund in lieu of cash, which may be in the form of a pro-rata slice of the Fund’s portfolio (potentially with certain exclusions and modifications), individual securities or a representative basket of securities, in each case, subject to the Trust’s in-kind redemption procedures and related regulatory guidance. It is highly unlikely that your shares would ever be redeemed in kind. If your shares are redeemed in kind, you should expect to incur transaction costs upon the disposition of the securities received in the distribution.

Certificated Shares

If you are redeeming shares for which certificates have been issued, the certificates must be mailed to or deposited with the Trust, duly endorsed or accompanied by a duly endorsed stock power or by a written request for redemption. Signatures must be guaranteed as described under “Signature Validation” below. The Trust may request further documentation from institutions or fiduciary accounts, such as corporations, custodians (e.g., under the Uniform Gifts to Minors Act), executors, administrators, trustees or guardians. Your redemption request and stock power must be signed exactly as the account is registered, including indication of any special capacity of the registered owner.

Signature Validation

transactions non-financial in nature. A Medallion signature guarantee or SVP stamp may be obtained from a domestic bank or trust company, broker, dealer, clearing agency, savings association or other financial institution which is participating in a Medallion program or Signature validation program recognized by the Securities Transfer Association. When a Medallion signature guarantee or SVP stamp is required, signature validations from financial institutions which are not participating in one of these programs will not be accepted. Please note that financial institutions participating in a recognized Medallion program or providing SVP stamps may still be ineligible to provide a signature validation for transactions of greater than a specified dollar amount. The Trust may change the signature validation requirements from time to time upon notice to shareholders, which may be given by means of a new or supplemented prospectus. Shareholders should contact the Transfer Agent for additional details regarding the Funds' signature validation requirements. In addition, PIMCO or the Transfer Agent may reject a Medallion signature guarantee or SVP stamp.

In addition, corporations, trusts, and other institutional organizations are required to furnish evidence of the authority of the persons designated on the Account Application to effect transactions for the organization.

Minimum Account Size

Due to the relatively high cost of maintaining small accounts, the Trust reserves the right to redeem shares in any account that falls below the values listed below.

■

Class A and Class C. Investors should maintain an account balance in the Fund held by an investor of at least the minimum investment necessary to open the particular type of account. If an investor’s balance for the Fund remains below the minimum for three months or longer, the Trust reserves the right (except in the case of employer-sponsored retirement accounts) to redeem an investor’s remaining shares and close the Fund account. An investor’s account will not be liquidated if the reduction in size is due solely to a decline in market value of Fund shares or another exception available through the Administrator’s policies applies. An investor will receive advance notice of the Trust’s intention to redeem the investor’s shares and close the Fund account and will be given at least 60 days to bring the value of its account up to the required minimum.

■

Institutional Class and Administrative Class. If, at any time, an investor’s shares in an account do not have a value of at least $100,000 due to redemption by the investor, the Trust reserves the right to redeem an investor’s remaining shares and close the Fund account. An investor’s account will not be liquidated if the reduction in size is due solely to a decline in market value of Fund shares or another exception available through the Administrator’s policies applies. An investor will receive advance notice of the Trust’s intention to redeem the investor’s shares and close the Fund account and will be given at least 60 days to bring the value of its account up to the required minimum.

Request for Multiple Copies of Shareholder Documents

To reduce expenses related to mailings of shareholder documents, it is intended that only one copy of the Funds' prospectus and each annual and semi-annual report to shareholders, when available, will be sent to those addresses shared by two or more accounts. If you wish to receive individual copies of these documents and your shares are held directly with the Trust, call the Trust at 888.87.PIMCO. You will receive the additional copy within 30 days after receipt of your request by the Trust. Alternatively, if your shares are held through a financial institution, please contact the financial institution directly.

Exchanging Shares

Exchanges of Class A and Class C shares are subject to an initial $1,000 minimum (and subsequent $50 minimum) for each Fund, except with respect to tax-qualified programs and exchanges effected through the PIMCO Funds Automatic Exchange Plan. Specified benefit plans or financial service firms may impose various fees and charges, investment minimums and other requirements with respect to exchanges of Class R shares.

An exchange is generally a taxable event which will generate capital gains or losses, and special rules may apply in computing tax basis when determining gain or loss. See “Tax Consequences” in this prospectus and “Taxation” in the SAI.

Eligible investors who maintain their account directly with the Funds may submit a request to exchange Fund shares by accessing their account online. Eligible direct investors in Class A and Class C shares may access their online account via pimco.com/MyAccountAccess. Eligible direct investors in Institutional shares may access their online account via pimco.com/InstitutionalAccountAccess.

If you maintain your Class A, Class C or Class R account with the Trust, you may exchange shares by completing a written exchange request and sending it to PIMCO Funds, P.O. Box 219294, Kansas City, MO 64121- 9294 or by calling the Funds at 888.87.PIMCO. Exchanges of an amount of $10 million or more must be submitted in writing by an Authorized Person. If you maintain your Institutional Class or Administrative Class shares with the Trust, you may exchange shares by following the redemption procedures for those classes above. If you maintain Class A, Class C, Class R, Institutional Class or Administrative Class shares through an intermediary, please contact the intermediary to conduct your transactions.

Shares of one class of a Fund may also be exchanged directly for shares of another class of the Fund, subject to any applicable sales charge and other rules, as described in the SAI. PIMCO does not proactively monitor existing Fund shareholder eligibility for other share classes. If I-2 or I-3 shares are exchanged for Class A shares, a Class A sales charge will not apply.

The Trust reserves the right to refuse exchange purchases (or purchase and redemption and/or redemption and purchase transactions) if, in the judgment of PIMCO, the transaction would adversely affect a Fund and its shareholders. Although the Trust has no current intention of terminating or modifying the exchange privilege, it reserves the right to do so at any time. Except as otherwise permitted by the SEC, the Trust will give you 60 days’ advance notice if it exercises its right to terminate or materially modify the exchange privilege with respect to Class A, Class C and Class R shares.

The SAI provides more detailed information about the exchange privilege, including the procedures you must follow and additional exchange options. You can obtain the SAI free of charge from the Funds by written request to the address above, by visiting pimco.com or by calling 888.87.PIMCO.

Acceptance and Timing of Purchase Orders, Redemption Orders and Share Price Calculations

Under normal circumstances, a purchase order received by the Trust or its designee prior to the NYSE Close, on a day the Trust is open for business, together with payment made in one of the ways described above will be effected at that day’s NAV plus any applicable sales charge. An order received after the close of regular trading on the NYSE will be effected at the NAV determined on the next business day. However, orders received by certain retirement plans and other financial firms on a business day prior to the close of regular trading on the NYSE and communicated to the Trust or its designee prior to such time as agreed upon by the Trust and financial firm will be effected at the NAV determined on the business day the order was received by the financial firm. The Trust is “open for business” on each day the NYSE is open for trading, which excludes the following holidays: New Year’s Day, Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Presidents’ Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Juneteenth National Independence Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. If the NYSE is closed due to weather or other extenuating circumstances on a day it would typically be open for business, the Trust reserves the right to treat such day as a Business Day and accept purchase and redemption orders and calculate a Fund’s NAV as of the normally scheduled close of regular trading on the NYSE or such other time that the Fund may determine, in accordance with applicable law. A Fund reserves the right to close if the primary trading markets of the Fund’s portfolio instruments are closed and the Fund’s management believes that there is not an adequate market to meet purchase, redemption or exchange requests. On any business day when the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (“SIFMA”) recommends that the securities markets close trading early or when the NYSE closes earlier than scheduled, each Fund may (i) close trading early (in which the time as of which NAV is calculated would be advanced and, therefore, also the time by which

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus 103

PIMCO Funds

purchase and redemption orders must be received in order to receive that day’s NAV would be advanced) or (ii) accept purchase and redemption orders until, and calculate its NAV as of, the normally scheduled close of regular trading on the NYSE for that day. Purchase orders will be accepted only on days which the Trust is open for business.

Under normal circumstances, a redemption order received by the Trust or its designee prior to the NYSE Close on a day the Trust is open for business, is effective on that day (unless a specific subsequent trade date is provided). A redemption order received after that time becomes effective on the next business day. Redemption requests for Fund shares are effected at the NAV per share next determined after receipt of a redemption request by the Trust or its designee, minus any applicable sales charge. However, orders received by certain broker-dealers and other financial firms on a business day prior to the NYSE Close and communicated to the Trust or its designee prior to such time as agreed upon by the Trust and financial firm will be effected on the business day the order was received by the financial firm. The request must properly identify all relevant information such as trade date, account name, account number, redemption amount (in dollars or shares), the Fund name and the class of shares and must be executed by an Authorized Person.

The Trust and the Distributor each reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to accept or reject any order for purchase of Fund shares, including with respect to one or more share classes of a Fund. The Trust or the Distributor may reject an order for purchase of Fund shares for any reason or no reason. The sale of shares may be suspended during any period in which the NYSE is closed other than weekends or holidays, or if permitted by the rules of the SEC, when trading on the NYSE is restricted or during an emergency which makes it impracticable for a Fund to dispose of its securities or to determine fairly the value of its net assets, or during any other period as permitted by the SEC for the protection of investors. Additionally, redemptions of Fund shares may be suspended when trading on the NYSE is restricted or during an emergency which makes it impracticable for the Fund to dispose of its securities or to determine fairly the value of its net assets, or during any other period as permitted by the SEC for the protection of investors. Under these and other unusual circumstances, the Trust may suspend redemptions or postpone payment for more than seven days, as permitted by law.

An investor should invest in a Fund for long-term investment purposes only. The Trust reserves the right to refuse purchases if, in the judgment of PIMCO, the purchases would adversely affect a Fund and its shareholders. In particular, the Trust and PIMCO each reserves the right to restrict purchases of Fund shares (including exchanges) when a pattern of frequent purchases and sales made in response to short-term fluctuations in share price appears evident. Notice of any such restrictions, if any, will vary according to the particular circumstances.

Abusive Trading Practices

The Trust encourages shareholders to invest in the Funds as part of a long-term investment strategy and discourages excessive, short-term trading and other abusive trading practices, sometimes referred to as “market timing.” However, because the Trust will not always be able to detect market timing or other abusive trading activity, investors should not assume that the Trust will be able to detect or prevent all market timing or other trading practices that may disadvantage the Funds.

Certain of the Funds' investment strategies may expose the Funds to risks associated with market timing activities. For example, since certain Funds may invest in non-U.S. securities, they may be subject to the risk that an investor may seek to take advantage of a delay between the change in value of the Funds' non-U.S. portfolio securities and the determination of the Funds' NAV as a result of different closing times of U.S. and non-U.S. markets by buying or selling Fund shares at a price that does not reflect their true value. A similar risk exists for a Fund’s potential investment in securities of small capitalization companies, securities of issuers located in emerging markets, securities of distressed companies or high yield securities that are thinly traded and therefore may have actual values that differ from their market prices.

Except as identified below, to discourage excessive, short-term trading and other abusive trading practices, the Board of Trustees of the Trust has adopted policies and procedures reasonably designed to detect and prevent short-term trading activity that may be harmful to a Fund and its shareholders. Such activities may have a detrimental effect on a Fund and its shareholders. For example, depending upon various factors such as the size of a Fund and the amount of its assets maintained in cash, short-term or excessive trading by Fund shareholders may interfere with the efficient management of the Fund's investments, increase transaction costs and taxes, and may harm the performance of the Fund and its shareholders.

The Trust seeks to deter and prevent abusive trading practices, and to reduce these risks, through several methods. First, to the extent that there is a delay between a change in the value of a Fund’s portfolio holdings and the time when that change is reflected in the NAV of the Fund’s shares, the Fund is exposed to the risk that investors may seek to exploit this delay by purchasing or redeeming shares at NAVs that do not reflect appropriate fair value prices. The Trust seeks to deter and prevent this activity, sometimes referred to as “stale price arbitrage,” by the appropriate use of “fair value” pricing of a Fund’s portfolio securities. See “How Fund Shares Are Priced” below for more information.

Second, the Trust and PIMCO seek to monitor shareholder account activities in order to detect and prevent excessive and disruptive trading practices. The Trust and PIMCO each reserves the right to restrict or refuse any purchase or exchange transaction if, in the judgment of the Trust or of PIMCO, the transaction may adversely affect the interests of a Fund or its shareholders. Among other things, the Trust may monitor for any patterns of frequent purchases and sales that appear to be made in response to short-term fluctuations in share price and may also monitor for any attempts to improperly avoid the imposition of a redemption fee. Notice of such restrictions, if any, will vary according to the particular

104 Prospectus | PIMCO Funds

Prospectus

circumstances. The Trust does not monitor the PIMCO Funds of Funds (as defined below) for purposes of detecting frequent or short-term trading practices with respect to shares of the Funds.

Although the Trust and its service providers seek to use these methods to detect and prevent abusive trading activities, and although the Trust will consistently apply such methods, there can be no assurances that such activities can be mitigated or eliminated. By their nature, omnibus accounts, in which purchases and sales of Fund shares by multiple investors are aggregated for presentation to a Fund on a net basis, conceal the identity of the individual investors from the Fund. This makes it more difficult for the Trust and/or PIMCO to identify short-term transactions in the Fund.

Information Regarding State Escheatment Laws

Fund accounts can be considered abandoned property. States increasingly are looking at inactive accounts as possible abandoned or unclaimed property. Under certain circumstances, a Fund (or the broker or custodian of record having beneficial owner information) may be legally obligated to escheat (or transfer) an investor’s account to the appropriate state’s unclaimed property administrator. A Fund will not be liable to investors or their representatives for good faith compliance with state unclaimed or abandoned property (escheatment) laws.

Escheatment laws vary by state, and states have different criteria for defining inactivity and abandoned property. Generally, a fund account may be subject to “escheatment” (i.e., considered to be abandoned or unclaimed property) if the account owner has not initiated any activity in the account or contacted a fund for an “inactivity period” as specified in applicable state laws. Typically, an investor’s last known address of record determines the state that has jurisdiction.

The process described above, and the application of state escheatment laws, may vary depending on how shareholders hold their shares in a Fund.

Verification of Identity and Compliance with Economic Sanctions and Anti-Money Laundering Laws

To help the federal government combat the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law generally requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, record, and, in certain instances, report information that identifies each person, or the control person(s) and/or beneficial owners of legal entity customers, that opens a new account, and to determine whether such person’s name, or the names of such control person(s) and/or beneficial owners of legal entity customers, appears on government lists of known or suspected terrorists and terrorist organizations. As a result, unless there is an applicable exception or exemption, a Fund must obtain the following information for each person, or the control person(s) and/or beneficial owners of legal entity customers, that opens a new account:

Name;

Date of birth (for individuals);

Residential or business street address; and

Social security number, taxpayer identification number, or other identifying number.

Federal law prohibits the Funds and other financial institutions from opening a new account unless they receive the minimum identifying information listed above, unless there is an applicable exception or exemption.

Individuals may also be asked for a copy of their driver’s license, passport or other identifying document in order to verify their identity. In addition, it may be necessary to verify an individual’s identity by cross-referencing the identification information with a consumer report or other electronic database. Additional information may be required to open accounts for corporations and other entities, and a Fund or its affiliates or agents may request information about the investor’s source of funds and source of wealth before permitting investment in the Fund.

After an account is opened, a Fund may restrict your ability to purchase additional shares until your identity is verified and all other requested information is provided to the Fund’s satisfaction. A Fund also may close or freeze your account and redeem your shares or take other appropriate action if it is unable to verify your identity or obtain the requested information within a reasonable time at any point in the lifecycle of the account.

The Funds and their affiliates are subject to various anti-money laundering laws in addition to those set forth above, as well as laws that restrict them from dealing with entities, individuals, organizations and/or investments that are subject to applicable sanctions regimes. Compliance with applicable economic sanctions, anti-money laundering, and anti-terrorist financing laws also may cause a Fund to block, freeze, or (in some cases) liquidate an account if, for example, a Fund is unable to obtain from an investor information it requires to satisfy its anti-money laundering or economic sanctions compliance obligations, or has reason to suspect that the investor may be engaged in illicit activity, or that the investor’s funds derive from such activity or sanctioned persons. Each investor acknowledges that (i) if the Funds or their affiliates or agents reasonably believe that such investor (or any of its underlying beneficial owners) is the subject or target of relevant economic or trade sanctions program or has used proceeds of crime to fund their investment, or (ii) if otherwise required by applicable law or regulation, the Funds or their affiliates or agents may, in their sole discretion, undertake appropriate actions to ensure compliance with applicable law or regulations, including but not limited to freezing, segregating or redeeming such investor’s subscription in the Funds and/or making disclosures to appropriate regulators. In this event, the affected investor shall have no claim against a Fund or any of its affiliates or agents, for any form of damages that result from any of the aforementioned actions.

How Fund Shares are Priced

The price of a Fund’s shares is based on a Fund’s NAV. The NAV of the Fund, or each of its share classes, as applicable, is determined by dividing the total value of a Fund’s portfolio investments and other assets attributable to that Fund or class, less any liabilities, by the total number of shares outstanding of that Fund or class.

PIMCO Funds

On each day that the NYSE is open, Fund shares are ordinarily valued as of the NYSE Close. Information that becomes known to the Funds or their agents after the time as of which NAV has been calculated on a particular day will not generally be used to retroactively adjust the price of a security or the NAV determined earlier that day. If regular trading on the NYSE closes earlier than scheduled, each Fund reserves the right to either (i) calculate its NAV as of the earlier closing time or (ii) calculate its NAV as of the normally scheduled close of regular trading on the NYSE for that day. Each Fund generally does not calculate its NAV on days during which the NYSE is closed. However, if the NYSE is closed on a day it would normally be open for business, each Fund reserves the right to calculate its NAV as of the normally scheduled close of regular trading on the NYSE for that day or such other time that the Fund may determine.

For purposes of calculating NAV, portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value. A market quotation is readily available only when that quotation is a quoted price (unadjusted) in active markets for identical investments that the Fund can access at the measurement date, provided that a quotation will not be readily available if it is not reliable. Market value is generally determined on the basis of official closing prices or the last reported sales prices. The Funds will normally use pricing data for domestic equity securities received shortly after the NYSE Close and do not normally take into account trading, clearances or settlements that take place after the NYSE Close. A foreign (non-U.S.) equity security traded on a foreign exchange or on more than one exchange is typically valued using pricing information from the exchange considered by PIMCO to be the primary exchange. If market value pricing is used, a foreign (non-U.S.) equity security will be valued as of the close of trading on the foreign exchange, or the NYSE Close, if the NYSE Close occurs before the end of trading on the foreign exchange. Investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act. As a general principle, the fair value of a security or asset is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5, the Board of Trustees has designated PIMCO as the valuation designee (“Valuation Designee”) for each Fund to perform the fair value determination relating to all Fund investments. PIMCO may carry out its designated responsibilities as Valuation Designee through various teams and committees. The Valuation Designee's policies and procedures govern the Valuation Designee's selection and application of methodologies for determining and calculating the fair value of Fund investments. The Valuation Designee may value Fund portfolio securities for which market quotations are not readily available and other Fund assets utilizing inputs from pricing services, quotation reporting systems, valuation agents and other third-party sources (together, “Pricing Sources”). Domestic and foreign (non-U.S.) fixed income securities, non-exchange traded derivatives, and equity options are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or Pricing Sources using data reflecting the earlier closing of the principal markets for those securities. Prices obtained from Pricing Sources may be based on,

among other things, information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Exchange-traded options, except equity options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange. Swap agreements are valued on the basis of bid quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or market-based prices supplied by Pricing Sources. With respect to any portion of a Fund’s assets that are invested in one or more open-end management investment companies (other than exchange-traded funds), a Fund’s NAV will be calculated based upon the NAVs of such investments.

If a foreign (non-U.S.) equity security’s value has materially changed after the close of the security’s primary exchange or principal market but before the NYSE Close, the security may be valued at fair value. Foreign (non-U.S.) equity securities that do not trade when the NYSE is open are also valued at fair value. With respect to foreign (non-U.S.) equity securities, a Fund may determine the fair value of investments based on information provided by Pricing Sources and other third-party vendors, which may recommend fair value or adjustments with reference to other securities, indexes or assets. In considering whether fair valuation is required and in determining fair values, the Valuation Designee may, among other things, consider significant events (which may be considered to include changes in the value of U.S. securities or securities indexes) that occur after the close of the relevant market and before the NYSE Close. A Fund may utilize modeling tools provided by third-party vendors to determine fair values of non-U.S. securities. For these purposes, unless otherwise determined by the Valuation Designee, any movement in the applicable reference index or instrument (“zero trigger”) between the earlier close of the applicable foreign market and the NYSE Close may be deemed to be a significant event, prompting the application of the pricing model (effectively resulting in daily fair valuations). Foreign (non-U.S.) exchanges may permit trading in foreign (non-U.S.) equity securities on days when the Trust is not open for business, which may result in a Fund’s portfolio investments being affected when you are unable to buy or sell shares.

Investments valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from Pricing Sources. As a result, the value of such investments and, in turn, the NAV of a Fund’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of investments traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the Trust is not open for business. As a result, to the extent that a Fund holds foreign (non-U.S.) investments, the value of those investments may change at times when shareholders are unable to buy or sell shares and the value of such investments will be reflected in the Fund’s next calculated NAV.

ensure that fair values accurately reflect the price that a Fund could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing (for instance, in a forced or distressed sale). The prices used by a Fund may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold. The Funds’ use of fair valuation may also help to deter “stale price arbitrage” as discussed above under “Abusive Trading Practices.”

Under certain circumstances, the per share NAV of a class of a Fund's shares may be different from the per share NAV of another class of shares as a result of the different daily expense accruals applicable to each class of shares.

Fund Distributions

Each Fund distributes substantially all of its net investment income to shareholders in the form of dividends. Dividends paid by each Fund with respect to each class of shares are calculated in the same manner and at the same time, but dividends on different classes of shares may be different as a result of the service and/or distribution fees applicable to certain classes of shares. Each Fund intends to declare income dividends daily and distribute them monthly to shareholders of record.

In addition, each Fund distributes any net capital gains it earns from the sale of portfolio securities to shareholders no less frequently than annually. Net short-term capital gains may be paid more frequently.

A Fund’s dividend and capital gain distributions with respect to a particular class of shares will automatically be reinvested in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at NAV unless the shareholder elects to have the distributions paid in cash. A shareholder may elect to have distributions paid in cash on the Account Application, by phone, or by submitting a written request, signed by an Authorized Person, indicating the account name, account number, name of Fund and share class. A shareholder may elect to invest all distributions in shares of the same class of any other fund of the Trust or PIMCO Funds which offers that class of shares at NAV. A shareholder must have an account existing in the fund selected for investment with the identical registered name. This option must be elected when the account is set up.

Shares Purchased by Wire: Dividends will begin to accrue the business day following the day the order is effected or such later date as agreed with the Trust.

Shares Purchased by Check or ACH: The order will be effected at that day’s NAV, but dividends will not begin to accrue until the following business day.

If a purchase order is placed through a broker, dealer or other financial firms authorized to settle through the National Securities Clearing Corporation (the “NSCC”), the purchase order will begin accruing dividends the business day following the NSCC settlement date or as agreed upon and as allowed by applicable law.

A Class A, Class C or Class R shareholder may choose from the following distribution options:

■

pay any sales charges on shares received through the reinvestment of Fund distributions. This will be done unless you elect another option.

■

Invest all distributions in shares of the same class of any other fund of the Trust or PIMCO Equity Series which offers that class at NAV. You must have an account existing in the fund selected for investment with the identical registered name. You must elect this option on your Account Application or by a telephone request to the Transfer Agent at 1.888.87.PIMCO.

■

Receive all distributions in cash (either paid directly to you or credited to your account with your broker or other financial intermediary). If the postal or other delivery service is unable to deliver checks to your address of record, the Trust’s Transfer Agent will hold the returned checks for your benefit in a non-interest bearing account. You must elect this option on your Account Application or by a telephone request to the Transfer Agent at 1.888.87.PIMCO.

The financial service firm may offer additional distribution reinvestment programs or options. Please contact the firm for details.

Tax Consequences

The following information is meant as a general summary for U.S. taxpayers. Please see the SAI for additional information. You should rely on your own tax adviser for advice about the particular federal, state and local tax consequences to you of investing in any Fund.

Each Fund will distribute substantially all of its income and gains to its shareholders every year, and shareholders will be taxed on distributions they receive.

■

Taxes on Fund Distributions. A shareholder subject to U.S. federal income tax will be subject to tax on taxable Fund distributions of taxable income or capital gains whether they are paid in cash or reinvested in additional shares of the Funds. For federal income tax purposes, taxable Fund distributions will be taxable to the shareholder as either ordinary income or capital gains.

Fund taxable dividends (i.e., distributions of investment income) are generally taxable to shareholders as ordinary income. A portion of distributions may be qualified dividends taxable at lower rates for individual shareholders. However, in light of the investment strategies of the Funds, it is not anticipated that a significant portion of the dividends paid by the Funds will be eligible to be reported as qualified dividends. Federal taxes on Fund distributions of gains are determined by how long a Fund owned the investments that generated the gains, rather than how long a shareholder has owned the shares. Distributions of gains from investments that the Fund owned for more than one year will generally be taxable to shareholders as long-term capital gains. Distributions of gains from investments that the Fund owned for one year or less will generally be taxable as ordinary income.

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus 107

PIMCO Funds

instruments could affect the amount, timing and character of a Fund’s distributions. In some cases, these tax rules could also result in a retroactive change in the tax character of prior distributions and may also possibly cause all, or a portion, of prior distributions to be reclassified as returns of capital for tax purposes. See “Returns of Capital” below.

Taxable Fund distributions are taxable to shareholders even if they are paid from income or gains earned by a Fund prior to the shareholder’s investment and thus were included in the price paid for the shares. For example, a shareholder who purchases shares on or just before the record date of a Fund distribution will pay full price for the shares and may receive a portion of his or her investment back as a taxable distribution.

■

Taxes on Redemption or Exchanges of Shares. You will generally have a taxable capital gain or loss if you dispose of your Fund shares by redemption, exchange or sale. The amount of the gain or loss and the rate of tax will depend primarily upon how much you pay for the shares, how much you sell them for, and how long you hold them. When you exchange shares of a Fund for shares of another Fund, the transaction will be treated as a sale of the Fund shares for these purposes, and any gain on those shares will generally be subject to federal income tax.

■

Medicare Tax. An additional 3.8% Medicare tax is imposed on certain net investment income (including ordinary dividends and capital gain distributions received from a Fund and net gains from redemptions or other taxable dispositions of Fund shares) of U.S. individuals, estates and trusts to the extent that such person’s “modified adjusted gross income” (in the case of an individual) or “adjusted gross income” (in the case of an estate or trust) exceeds certain threshold amounts.

■

Returns of Capital. If a Fund’s distributions exceed its taxable income and capital gains realized during a taxable year, all or a portion of the distributions made in the same taxable year may be recharacterized as a return of capital to shareholders. A return of capital distribution will generally not be taxable, but will reduce each shareholder’s cost basis in the Fund and result in a higher reported capital gain or lower reported capital loss when those shares on which the distribution was received are sold.

■

designate a secondary cost basis method (Secondary Method). If a Secondary Method is not provided, the Funds will designate FIFO as the Secondary Method and will use the Secondary Method with respect to automatic withdrawals made after January 1, 2012 or conducted via an automatic withdrawal plan. If a shareholder is a corporation and has not instructed the Fund in its Account Application or by written instruction that it is a C corporation, the Fund will treat the shareholder as an S corporation and file a Form 1099-B.

■

Backup Withholding. Each Fund may be required to withhold U.S. federal income tax on all taxable distributions payable to shareholders if they fail to provide the Fund with their correct taxpayer identification number or to make required certifications, or if they have been notified by the IRS that they are subject to backup withholding. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld may be credited against U.S. federal income tax liability.

■

Foreign Withholding Taxes. A Fund may be subject to foreign withholding or other foreign taxes, which in some cases can be significant on any income or gain from investments in foreign securities. In that case, the Fund’s total return on those securities would be decreased. Each Fund may generally deduct these taxes in computing its taxable income. Rather than deducting these foreign taxes, if more than 50% of the value of a Fund’s total assets at the close of its taxable year consists of stock or securities of foreign corporations or foreign governments, or if at least 50% of the value of a Fund’s total assets at the close of each quarter of its taxable year is represented by interests in other regulated investment companies, such Fund may make an election to treat a proportionate amount of eligible foreign taxes as constituting a taxable distribution to each shareholder, which would, subject to certain limitations, generally allow the shareholder to either (i) credit that proportionate amount of taxes against U.S. Federal income tax liability as a foreign tax credit or (ii) take that amount as an itemized deduction. Although in some cases the Fund may be able to apply for a refund of a portion of such taxes, the ability to successfully obtain such a refund may be uncertain.

Foreign shareholders may be subject to U.S. tax withholding of 30% (or lower applicable treaty rate) on distributions from the Funds. Additionally, the Funds are required to withhold U.S. tax (at a 30% rate) on payments of taxable dividends made to certain non-U.S. entities that fail to comply (or are deemed noncompliant) with extensive reporting and withholding requirements designed to inform the U.S. Department of the Treasury of U.S.-owned foreign investment accounts. Shareholders may be requested to provide additional information to enable the Funds to determine whether withholding is required.

This “Tax Consequences” section relates only to federal income tax; the consequences under other tax laws may differ. Shareholders should consult their tax advisors as to the possible application of foreign, state and local income tax laws to Fund dividends and capital distributions. Please see “Taxation” in the SAI for additional information regarding the tax aspects of investing in the Funds.

Characteristics and Risks of Securities and Investment Techniques

This section provides additional information about some of the principal investments and related risks of the Funds described under “Fund Summaries” and “Description of Principal Risks” above. It also describes characteristics and risks of additional securities and investment techniques that may be used by the Funds from time to time. Most of these securities and investment techniques described herein are discretionary, which means that PIMCO can decide whether to use them or not. This prospectus does not attempt to disclose all of the various types of securities and investment techniques that may be used by the Funds. As with any fund, investors in the Funds rely on the professional investment judgment and skill of PIMCO and the individual portfolio managers. Please see “Investment Objectives and Policies” in the SAI for more detailed information about the securities and investment techniques described in this section and about other strategies and techniques that may be used by the Funds.

Investors should be aware that the investments made by a Fund and the results achieved by a Fund at any given time, including for the same or similar investments, are not expected to be the same as those made by other funds for which PIMCO acts as investment adviser, including funds with names, investment objectives and policies, and/or portfolio management teams, similar to a Fund. This may be attributable to a wide variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the use of a different strategy or portfolio management team, the execution venue(s) used for a given strategy or Fund when a particular fund commenced operations or the size of a particular fund, in each case as compared to other similar funds.

Significant shareholder purchases and redemptions could be driven by a variety of circumstances, such as changing market and economic conditions, and asset allocations or other decisions by PIMCO. Such transactions may adversely impact a Fund’s portfolio management. For example, a Fund may be forced to sell a comparatively large portion of its portfolio to meet significant shareholder redemptions, or hold a comparatively large portion of its portfolio in cash due to significant shareholder purchases, in each case when the Fund otherwise would not seek to do so. These shareholder transactions may cause Funds to make investment decisions at inopportune times or prices or miss attractive investment opportunities. Such transactions may also increase a Fund’s transaction costs, accelerate the realization of taxable income if such sales of investments resulted in gains, cause the Fund to make taxable distributions to its non-redeeming shareholders to a greater extent than the Fund otherwise would have, or otherwise cause a Fund to perform differently than intended. Similarly, significant shareholder purchases may adversely affect a Fund’s performance to the extent the Fund is delayed in investing new cash and, as a result, holds a proportionally larger cash position than under ordinary circumstances and such impact may be heightened in funds of funds. While such risks may apply to Funds of any size, these risks are heightened in Funds with fewer assets under management. In addition, new Funds may not be

able to fully implement their investment strategy immediately upon commencing investment operations, which could reduce investment performance.

More generally, a Fund may be adversely affected when a large shareholder purchases or redeems large amounts of shares, which can occur at any time and may impact the Fund in the same manner as a high volume of purchase or redemption requests. These large shareholders include, but are not limited to, other funds, institutional investors, and asset allocators who make investment decisions on behalf of underlying clients. Large shareholder transactions may cause Funds to make investment decisions at inopportune times or prices or miss attractive investment opportunities. In addition, such transactions may also cause a Fund to sell certain assets in order to meet purchase or redemption requests, which could indirectly affect the liquidity of the Fund’s portfolio. Such transactions may also increase a Fund’s transaction costs, decrease economies of scale, accelerate the realization of taxable income, or otherwise cause the Fund to perform differently than intended. While large shareholder transactions may be more frequent under certain circumstances, a Fund is generally subject to the risk that a large shareholder can purchase or redeem a significant percentage of Fund shares at any time. Moreover, a Fund is subject to the risk that other shareholders may make investment decisions based on the choices of a large shareholder, which could exacerbate any potential negative effects experienced by the Fund.

Certain PIMCO Funds (the “PIMCO Funds of Funds”) invest substantially all or a significant portion of their assets in Underlying PIMCO Funds, which is defined to include the Funds. Similarly, other PIMCO-advised funds (the “Investing Funds”), may invest a portion of their assets in Underlying PIMCO Funds. In some cases, the PIMCO Funds of Funds, the PIMCO-Advised Investing Funds and certain funds managed by investment advisers affiliated with PIMCO (“Affiliated Funds of Funds”) may be the predominant or sole shareholders of a particular Underlying PIMCO Fund, including a Fund. Investment decisions made with respect to the PIMCO Funds of Funds, the PIMCO-Advised Investing Funds and Affiliated Funds of Funds could, under certain circumstances, negatively impact the Underlying PIMCO Funds, including the Funds, with respect to the expenses and investment performance of the Underlying PIMCO Funds. For instance, large purchases or redemptions of shares of an Underlying PIMCO Fund by the PIMCO Funds of Funds, the PIMCO-Advised Investing Funds and Affiliated Funds of Funds, whether as part of a reallocation or rebalancing strategy or otherwise, may result in the Underlying PIMCO Fund having to sell securities or invest cash when it otherwise would not do so. Such transactions could increase an Underlying PIMCO Fund’s transaction costs and accelerate the realization of taxable income if sales of securities resulted in gains. Adverse impacts to an Underlying PIMCO Fund, such as these examples, may be exacerbated when the Underlying PIMCO Fund is invested in by another fund, such as a PIMCO-Advised Investing Fund, that itself is invested in by other funds. Such structures could make asset flows, performance and other factors more volatile at the Underlying PIMCO Fund level. Additionally, as the PIMCO Funds of Funds and Affiliated Funds of Funds may invest substantially all or a significant portion of their assets in Underlying

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus 109

PIMCO Funds

PIMCO Funds, and the PIMCO-Advised Investing Funds may invest a portion of their assets in Underlying PIMCO Funds, the Underlying PIMCO Funds may not acquire securities of other registered open-end investment companies in reliance on Section 12(d)(1)(F) or Section 12(d)(1)(G) of the 1940 Act, thus limiting the Underlying PIMCO Funds investment flexibility.

Investment Selection

Certain Funds seek maximum total return. The total return sought by a Fund consists of both income earned on a Fund’s investments and capital appreciation, if any, arising from increases in the market value of a Fund’s holdings. Capital appreciation of fixed income securities generally results from decreases in market interest rates, foreign currency appreciation, or improving credit fundamentals for a particular market sector or security.

In selecting securities for a Fund, PIMCO develops an outlook for interest rates, currency exchange rates and the economy, analyzes credit and call risks, and uses other security selection techniques. The proportion of a Fund’s assets committed to investment in securities with particular characteristics (such as quality, sector, interest rate or maturity) varies based on PIMCO’s outlook for the U.S. economy and the economies of other countries in the world, the financial markets and other factors. In selecting investments for a Fund, PIMCO may use proprietary quantitative models that are developed and maintained by PIMCO, and which are subject to change over time without notice in PIMCO's discretion. The proprietary quantitative models used by PIMCO may not adequately take into account certain factors, may contain design flaws or faulty assumptions, and may rely on incomplete or inaccurate data inputs, any of which may result in a decline in the value of an investment in a Fund. There is no guarantee that PIMCO's use of a proprietary quantitative model will produce the desired result.

With respect to fixed income investing, PIMCO attempts to identify areas of the bond market that are undervalued relative to the rest of the market. PIMCO identifies these areas by grouping Fixed Income Instruments into sectors such as money markets, governments, corporates, mortgages, asset-backed and international. In seeking to identify undervalued currencies, PIMCO may consider many factors, including but not limited to longer-term analysis of relative interest rates, inflation rates, real exchange rates, purchasing power parity, trade account balances and current account balances, as well as other factors that influence exchange rates such as flows, market technical trends and government policies. Sophisticated proprietary software then assists in evaluating sectors and pricing specific investments. Once investment opportunities are identified, PIMCO will shift assets among sectors depending upon changes in relative valuations, credit spreads and other factors. There is no guarantee that PIMCO’s investment selection techniques will produce the desired results.

Fixed Income Instruments

“Fixed Income Instruments,” as used generally in this prospectus, includes:

■

securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its

agencies or government-sponsored enterprises (“U.S. Government Securities”);

■

corporate debt securities of U.S. and non-U.S. issuers, including convertible securities and corporate commercial paper;

■

mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities;

■

inflation-indexed bonds issued both by governments and corporations;

■

structured notes, including hybrid or “indexed” securities and event-linked bonds;

■

bank capital and trust preferred securities;

■

loans, including participations in and assignments thereof;

■

delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities;

■

bank certificates of deposit, fixed time deposits and bankers’ acceptances;

■

repurchase agreements on Fixed Income Instruments and reverse repurchase agreements on Fixed Income Instruments;

■

debt securities issued by states or local governments and their agencies, authorities and other government-sponsored enterprises;

■

obligations of non-U.S. governments or their subdivisions, agencies and government-sponsored enterprises; and

■

obligations of international agencies or supranational entities.

Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government- sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury.

The Funds, to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act, the rules thereunder or any exemptive relief therefrom, may invest in derivatives based on Fixed Income Instruments.

Duration

Duration is a measure used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates that incorporates a security’s yield, coupon, final maturity and call features, among other characteristics. The longer a security’s duration, the more sensitive it will be to changes in interest rates. Similarly, a fund with a longer average portfolio duration will be more sensitive to changes in interest rates than a fund with a shorter average portfolio duration. By way of example, the price of a bond fund with an average duration of eight years would be expected to fall approximately 8% if interest rates rose by one percentage point. Conversely, the price of a bond fund with an average duration of negative three years would be expected to rise approximately 3% if interest rates rose by one percentage point. The maturity of a security, another commonly used measure of price sensitivity, measures only the time until final payment is due, whereas duration takes into account the pattern of all payments of interest and principal on a security over time, including how these payments are affected by prepayments and by changes in interest rates, as well as the time until an interest rate is reset (in the case of variable-rate securities). PIMCO uses an internal model for calculating duration, which may result in a different value for the duration of an index compared to the duration calculated by the index provider or another third party.

U.S. Government Securities

U.S. Government Securities are obligations of, or guaranteed by, the U.S. Government, its agencies or government-sponsored enterprises. The U.S. Government does not guarantee the NAV of a Fund’s shares. U.S. Government Securities are subject to market and interest rate risk, as well as varying degrees of credit risk. Some U.S. Government Securities are issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury and are supported by the full faith and credit of the United States. Other types of U.S. Government Securities are supported by the full faith and credit of the United States (but not issued by the U.S. Treasury). These securities may have less credit risk than U.S. Government Securities not supported by the full faith and credit of the United States. Such other types of U.S. Government Securities are: (1) supported by the ability of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury; (2) supported only by the credit of the issuing agency, instrumentality or government-sponsored corporation; or (3) supported by the United States in some other way. These securities may be subject to greater credit risk. U.S. Government Securities include zero coupon securities, which do not distribute interest on a current basis and tend to be subject to greater market risk than interest-paying securities of similar maturities. The U.S. Government Securities in which a Fund may invest may pay fixed, floating, variable, or adjustable interest rates.

Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly-owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.

Municipal Bonds

less liquid than many other securities markets, which may adversely affect the ability of a Fund to sell its municipal bonds at attractive prices or value municipal bonds. The value of certain municipal securities, in particular general obligation debt, may also be adversely affected by rising health care costs, increasing unfunded pension liabilities, changes in accounting standards and by the phasing out of federal programs providing financial support. Lower rated Municipal Bonds are subject to greater credit and market risk than higher quality Municipal Bonds. Municipal Bonds may also have exposure to potential physical risks resulting from climate change, including extreme weather, flooding and fires. Climate risks, if they materialize, can adversely impact a municipal issuer’s financial plans in current or future years including, for example, the physical impairment of a facility or other source generating revenues backing a municipal issuer’s revenue bonds. As a result, the impact of climate risks could adversely impact the value of a Fund’s Municipal Bond investments. The types of Municipal Bonds in which a Fund may invest include municipal lease obligations, municipal general obligation bonds, municipal essential service revenue bonds, municipal cash equivalents, loans, mortgages, pre-refunded and escrowed to maturity Municipal Bonds and other debt instruments and pools of any of the foregoing. A Fund may also invest in industrial development bonds, which are Municipal Bonds issued by a government agency on behalf of a private sector company and, in most cases, are not backed by the credit of the issuing municipality and may therefore involve more risk. A Fund may also invest in securities issued by entities whose underlying assets are Municipal Bonds.

Pre-refunded Municipal Bonds are tax-exempt bonds that have been refunded to a call date on or before the final maturity of principal and remain outstanding in the municipal market. The payment of principal and interest of the pre-refunded Municipal Bonds held by a Fund is funded from securities in a designated escrow account that holds U.S. Treasury securities or other obligations of the U.S. Government (including its agencies and instrumentalities (“Agency Securities”)). As the payment of principal and interest is generated from securities held in a designated escrow account, the pledge of the municipality has been fulfilled and the original pledge of revenue by the municipality is no longer in place. The escrow account securities pledged to pay the principal and interest of the pre-refunded Municipal Bond do not guarantee the price movement of the bond before maturity. Issuers of municipal bonds refund in advance of maturity the outstanding higher cost debt and issue new, lower cost debt, placing the proceeds of the lower cost issuance into an escrow account to pre-refund the older, higher cost debt. Investment in pre-refunded Municipal Bonds held by a Fund may subject the Fund to interest rate risk, market risk and credit risk. In addition, while a secondary market exists for pre-refunded Municipal Bonds, if a Fund sells pre-refunded Municipal Bonds prior to maturity, the price received may be more or less than the original cost, depending on market conditions at the time of sale.

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus 111

PIMCO Funds

There is a risk that a Fund investing in a tender option bond program will not be considered the owner of a tender option bond for federal income tax purposes, and thus will not be entitled to treat such interest as exempt from federal income tax. Certain tender option bonds may be illiquid or may become illiquid as a result of, among other things, a credit rating downgrade, a payment default or a disqualification from tax-exempt status.

A Fund’s investment in the securities issued by a tender option bond trust may involve greater risk and volatility than an investment in a fixed rate bond, and the value of such securities may decrease significantly when market interest rates increase. Tender option bond trusts could be terminated due to market, credit or other events beyond a Fund’s control, which could require a Fund to dispose of portfolio investments at inopportune times and prices. A Fund may use a tender option bond program as a way of achieving leverage in its portfolio, in which case a Fund will be subject to leverage risk. The use of tender option bonds typically will impact a Fund’s duration and cause a Fund to be subject to increased duration and interest rate risk.

Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities

Mortgage-related securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. A to-be-announced (“TBA”) transaction is a method of trading mortgage-backed securities. In a TBA transaction, the buyer and seller agree upon general trade parameters such as issuer, maturity, coupon, face value, price and the settlement date. The actual pools delivered generally are determined two days prior to the settlement date.

The value of some mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose a Fund to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. When interest rates rise, the value of a mortgage-related security generally will decline; however, when interest rates are declining, the value of mortgage-related securities with prepayment features may not increase as much as other fixed income securities. The rate of prepayments on underlying mortgages will affect the price and volatility of a mortgage-related security, and may shorten or extend the effective maturity of the security beyond what was anticipated at the time of purchase. If unanticipated rates of prepayment on underlying mortgages increase the effective maturity of a mortgage-related security, the volatility of the security can be expected to increase. See “Extension Risk” and “Prepayment Risk” below. The values of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.

■

Extension Risk. Mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities are subject to Extension Risk, which is the risk that the issuer of such a security pays back the principal of such an obligation later than expected. This may occur when interest rates rise. This may negatively affect Fund returns, as the value of the security decreases when principal payments are made later than expected. In addition, because principal payments are made later than expected, a Fund may be prevented from investing proceeds it would otherwise have received at a given time at the higher prevailing interest rates.

■

Prepayment Risk. Mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities are subject to Prepayment Risk, which is the risk that the issuer of such a security pays back the principal of such an obligation earlier than expected (due to the sale of the underlying property, refinancing, or foreclosure). This may occur when interest rates decline. Prepayment may expose a Fund to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. Also, if a security subject to prepayment has been purchased at a premium, the value of the premium would be lost in the event of prepayment.

One type of SMBS has one class receiving all of the interest from the mortgage assets (the interest-only, or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only, or “PO” class). The yield to maturity on an IO class is extremely sensitive to the rate of principal payments (including prepayments) on the underlying mortgage assets, and a rapid rate of principal payments may have a material adverse effect on a Fund’s yield to maturity from these securities. Each Fund (except the PIMCO Total Return IV and PIMCO Mortgage Opportunities and Bond Funds) may invest up to 5% of its total assets in any combination of mortgage-related or other asset-backed IO, PO or inverse floater securities. The PIMCO Mortgage Opportunities and Bond Fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets in any combination of mortgage-related or other asset-backed IO, PO or inverse floater securities.

Certain Funds may invest in mortgage-related securities that reflect an interest in reverse mortgages. Due to the unique nature of the underlying loans, reverse mortgage-related securities may be subject to risks different than other types of mortgage-related securities. The date of repayment for such loans is uncertain and may occur sooner or later than anticipated. The timing of payments for the corresponding mortgage-related security may be uncertain.

Each Fund (except the PIMCO Total Return Fund IV) may invest in each of collateralized bond obligations (“CBOs”), collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”), other collateralized debt obligations (“CDOs”) and other similarly structured securities. CBOs, CLOs and other CDOs are types of asset-backed securities. A CBO is a trust which is backed by a diversified pool of high-risk, below investment grade fixed income securities. A CLO is a trust typically collateralized by a pool of loans, which may include, among others, domestic and foreign senior secured loans, senior unsecured loans, and subordinate corporate loans, including loans that may be rated below investment grade or equivalent

unrated loans. Other CDOs are trusts backed by other types of assets representing obligations of various parties. Certain Funds may invest in other asset-backed securities that have been offered to investors.

■

Privately Issued Mortgage-Related Securities. Pools created by non-governmental issuers generally offer a higher rate of interest than government and government-related pools because there are no direct or indirect government or agency guarantees of payments in such pools. Privately issued mortgage-related securities are not subject to the same underwriting requirements for the underlying mortgages that are applicable to those mortgage-related securities that have a government or government-sponsored entity guarantee. As a result, the mortgage loans underlying privately issued mortgage-related securities may, and frequently do, have less favorable collateral, credit risk or other underwriting characteristics than government or government-sponsored mortgage-related securities and have wider variances in a number of terms including interest rate, term, size, purpose and borrower characteristics. The risk of nonpayment is greater for mortgage-related securities that are backed by loans that were originated under weak underwriting standards, including loans made to borrowers with limited means to make repayment. A level of risk exists for all loans, although, historically, the poorest performing loans have been those classified as subprime. Privately issued mortgage-related securities are not traded on an exchange and there may be a limited market for the securities, especially when there is a perceived weakness in the mortgage and real estate market sectors. Without an active trading market, mortgage-related securities held in a Fund’s portfolio may be particularly difficult to value because of the complexities involved in assessing the value of the underlying mortgage loans.

Privately Issued Mortgage-Related Securities include securities that reflect an interest in, and are secured by, mortgage loans on commercial real property. Many of the risks of investing in commercial mortgage-backed securities reflect the risks of investing in the real estate securing the underlying mortgage loans. These risks reflect the effects of local and other economic conditions on real estate markets, the ability of tenants to make loan payments, and the ability of a property to attract and retain tenants.

Loan Participations and Assignments

Each Fund may invest in fixed- and floating-rate loans, which investments generally will be in the form of loan participations and assignments of all or portions of such loans. Participations and assignments involve special types of risk, including extension risk, prepayment risk, credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, and the risks of being a lender. Loans are subject to the risk that scheduled interest or principal payments will not be made in a timely manner or at all, either of which may adversely affect the value of the loan. In addition, the collateral underlying a loan may be unavailable or insufficient to satisfy a borrower’s obligation, and a Fund could become part owner of any

collateral if a loan is foreclosed, subjecting the Fund to costs associated with owning and disposing of the collateral. If a Fund purchases a participation, it may only be able to enforce its rights through the lender, and may assume the credit risk of the lender in addition to the borrower.

Reinvestment

Each Fund may be subject to the risk that the returns of a Fund will decline during periods of falling interest rates because the Fund may have to reinvest the proceeds from matured, traded or called debt obligations at interest rates below the Fund’s current earnings rate. For instance, when interest rates decline, an issuer of debt obligations may exercise an option to redeem securities prior to maturity, thereby forcing a Fund to invest in lower-yielding securities. A Fund also may choose to sell higher-yielding portfolio securities and to purchase lower-yielding securities to achieve greater portfolio diversification, because the Fund’s portfolio managers believe the current holdings are overvalued or for other investment-related reasons. A decline in the returns received by a Fund from its investments is likely to have an adverse effect on the Fund’s NAV, yield and total return.

Focused Investment

To the extent that a Fund focuses its investments in a particular sector, a Fund may be susceptible to loss due to adverse developments affecting that sector. These developments include, but are not limited to, governmental regulation; inflation; rising interest rates; cost increases in raw materials, fuel and other operating expenses; technological innovations that may render existing products and equipment obsolete; competition from new entrants; high research and development costs; contagion risk within a particular industry or sector; increased costs associated with compliance with environmental or other governmental regulations; and other economic, business or political developments specific to that sector. Furthermore, a Fund may invest a substantial portion of its assets in companies in related sectors that may share common characteristics, are often subject to similar business risks and regulatory burdens, and whose securities may react similarly to the types of developments described above, which will subject a Fund to greater risk. A Fund also will be subject to focused investment risk to the extent that it invests a substantial portion of its assets in a particular issuer, market, asset class, country or geographic region.

Corporate Debt Securities

Corporate debt securities are subject to the risk of the issuer’s inability to meet principal and interest payments on the obligation and may also be subject to price volatility due to such factors as interest rate sensitivity, market perception of the creditworthiness of the issuer and general market liquidity. When interest rates rise, the value of corporate debt securities can be expected to decline. Debt securities with longer maturities tend to be more sensitive to interest rate movements than those with shorter maturities. In addition, certain corporate debt securities may be highly customized and as a result may be subject to, among others, liquidity and pricing transparency risks.

Bank Capital Securities and Trust Preferred Securities

There are two common types of bank capital: Tier I and Tier II. Bank capital is generally, but not always, of investment grade quality. Tier I securities often take the form of trust preferred securities. Tier II securities are commonly thought of as hybrids of debt and preferred securities, are often perpetual (with no maturity date), callable and, under certain conditions, allow for the issuer bank to withhold payment of interest until a later date. Trust preferred securities have the characteristics of both subordinated debt and preferred securities. The primary advantage of the structure of trust preferred securities is that they are treated by the financial institution as debt securities for tax purposes and as equity for the calculation of capital requirements. Trust preferred securities typically bear a market rate coupon comparable to interest rates available on debt of a similarly rated issuer. Typical characteristics include long-term maturities, early redemption by the issuer, periodic fixed or variable interest payments, and maturities at face value. The market value of trust preferred securities may be more volatile than those of conventional debt securities. There can be no assurance as to the liquidity of trust preferred securities and the ability of holders, such as a Fund, to sell their holdings.

High Yield Securities and Distressed Companies

Securities rated lower than Baa by Moody’s, or equivalently rated by S&P or Fitch, are sometimes referred to as “high yield securities” or “junk bonds.” Issuers of these securities may be distressed and undergoing restructuring, bankruptcy or other proceedings in an attempt to avoid insolvency. Investing in these securities involves special risks in addition to the risks associated with investments in higher-rated fixed income securities. While offering a greater potential opportunity for capital appreciation and higher yields, high yield and distressed company securities typically entail greater potential price volatility and may be less liquid than higher-rated securities. High yield securities and debt securities of distressed companies may be regarded as predominantly speculative with respect to the issuer’s continuing ability to meet principal and interest payments. They may also be more susceptible to real or perceived adverse economic and competitive industry conditions than higher-rated securities. Certain Funds may invest in securities that are in default with respect to the payment of interest or repayment of principal, or present an imminent risk of default with respect to such payments. Issuers of securities in default may fail to resume principal or interest payments, in which case the Fund may lose its entire investment. Investments in distressed securities often involve increased control position risk and litigation risk. PIMCO may take actions in a stressed or distressed situation which results in disputes or litigation, which could impose costs on a Fund and could result in actions which decrease the value of the securities held by a Fund.

The market values of high yield securities tend to reflect individual developments of the issuer to a greater extent than do higher-quality securities, which tend to react mainly to fluctuations in the general level of interest rates. In addition, lower-quality debt securities tend to be more sensitive to general economic conditions. Certain emerging market governments that issue high yield securities in which a Fund may invest are among the largest debtors to commercial banks, foreign

governments and supranational organizations, such as the World Bank, and may not be able or willing to make principal and/or interest payments as they come due.

Variable and Floating Rate Securities

Variable and floating rate securities are securities that pay interest at rates that adjust whenever a specified interest rate changes and/or that reset on predetermined dates (such as the last day of a month or a calendar quarter). In addition to senior loans, variable- and floating-rate instruments may include, without limit, instruments such as catastrophe and other event-linked bonds, bank capital securities, unsecured bank loans, corporate bonds, money market instruments and certain types of mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities. Each Fund may invest in floating rate debt instruments (“floaters”) and engage in credit spread trades. A credit spread trade is an investment position relating to a difference in the prices or interest rates of two bonds or other securities, in which the value of the investment position is determined by changes in the difference between the prices or interest rates as the case may be, of the respective securities. Variable and floating rate securities generally are less sensitive to interest rate changes but may decline in value if their interest rates do not rise as much, or as quickly, as interest rates in general. Conversely, floating rate securities will not generally increase in value if interest rates decline. Each Fund may also invest in inverse floating rate debt instruments (“inverse floaters”). An inverse floater may exhibit greater price volatility than a fixed rate obligation of similar credit quality. Each Fund (except the PIMCO Mortgage Opportunities and Bond Fund) may invest up to 5% of its total assets in any combination of mortgage-related or other asset- backed IO, PO or inverse floater securities. The PIMCO Mortgage Opportunities and Bond Fund many invest up to 10% of its total assets in any combination of mortgage-related or other asset backed IO, PO, or inverse floater securities. Except with respect to the PIMCO Total Return Fund IV, a Fund may also invest, without limitation, in residual interest bonds. Residual interest bonds are a type of inverse floater. See “Municipal Bonds.”

Inflation-Indexed Bonds

Inflation-indexed bonds (other than municipal inflation-indexed bonds and certain corporate inflation-indexed bonds, which are more fully described below) are fixed income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted according to the rate of inflation. If the index measuring inflation falls, the principal value of inflation-indexed bonds (other than municipal inflation-indexed bonds and certain corporate inflation-indexed bonds) will be adjusted downward, and consequently the interest payable on these securities (calculated with respect to a smaller principal amount) will be reduced. Repayment of the original bond principal upon maturity (as adjusted for inflation) is guaranteed in the case of TIPS. For bonds that do not provide a similar guarantee, the adjusted principal value of the bond repaid at maturity may be less than the original principal.

114 Prospectus | PIMCO Funds

Prospectus

deflation floor that will allow the holder of the security to receive the greater of the original principal or inflation-adjusted principal value at maturity. iSTRIPS may be less liquid than conventional TIPS because they are a small component of the TIPS market.

Municipal inflation-indexed securities are municipal bonds that pay coupons based on a fixed rate plus the Consumer Price Index. With regard to municipal inflation-indexed bonds and certain corporate inflation-indexed bonds, the inflation adjustment is typically reflected in the semi-annual coupon payment. As a result, the principal value of municipal inflation-indexed bonds and such corporate inflation-indexed bonds does not adjust according to the rate of inflation. At the same time, the value of municipal inflation-indexed securities and such corporate inflation indexed securities generally will not increase if the rate of inflation decreases. Because municipal inflation-indexed securities and corporate inflation-indexed securities are a small component of the municipal bond and corporate bond markets, respectively, they may be less liquid than conventional municipal and corporate bonds.

The value of inflation-indexed bonds is expected to change in response to changes in real interest rates. Real interest rates are tied to the relationship between nominal interest rates and the rate of inflation. If nominal interest rates increase at a faster rate than inflation, real interest rates may rise, leading to a decrease in value of inflation-indexed bonds. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be considered taxable ordinary income, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.

Event-Linked Exposure

Each Fund may obtain event-linked exposure by investing in or gaining exposure to reinsurance contracts (through sidecars or otherwise), “event-linked bonds” or “event-linked swaps” or by implementing “event-linked strategies.” Event-linked exposure results in gains or losses that typically are contingent, or formulaically related to defined trigger events. Examples of trigger events include hurricanes, earthquakes, weather-related phenomena, or statistics related to such events. Some event-linked bonds are commonly referred to as “catastrophe bonds.” If a trigger event occurs, a Fund may lose a portion of or its entire principal invested in the bond or notional amount on a swap. Event-linked exposures often provide for an extension of maturity to process and audit loss claims where a trigger event has, or possibly has, occurred. An extension of maturity may increase volatility. A Fund may also have exposure to reinsurance contracts. This may include exposure to “excess of loss” contracts, wherein liability arises only if and when losses exceed a specified amount, and proportional reinsurance, wherein a portion of the premiums and liabilities of the cedant associated with a specified business or a portfolio of insurance contracts are linked to a Fund's investment. Reinsurance transactions may involve significant insurance brokerage fees, fronting fees and other transaction costs. Event-linked exposures may also expose a Fund to certain unanticipated risks including credit risk, counterparty risk, adverse regulatory or jurisdictional interpretations, and adverse tax consequences. Event-linked exposures may also be subject to liquidity risk.

Insurance-Linked and Other Instruments

Each Fund may invest in insurance-linked instruments and similar investments (which may include, for example, reinsurance contracts through sidecars or otherwise, event-linked bonds, such as catastrophe and resilience bonds, and securities relating to life insurance policies, annuity contracts and premium finance loans). A Fund could lose a portion or all of the principal it has invested in these types of investments, and the right to additional interest and/or dividend payments with respect to the investments, upon the occurrence of one or more trigger events, as defined within the terms of an investment. Trigger events may include natural or other perils of a specific size or magnitude that occur in a designated geographic region during a specified time period, and/or that involve losses or other metrics that exceed a specific amount. A Fund may also invest in insurance-linked instruments that are subject to “indemnity triggers.” An indemnity trigger is a mechanism where the payout to the investor is based on the actual losses incurred by the insurer and come into play when losses from a specified event exceed a designated level. Insurance-linked instruments subject to indemnity triggers are often regarded as being subject to potential moral hazard, since such insurance-linked investments are triggered by actual losses of the ceding sponsor and the ceding sponsor may have an incentive to take actions and/or risks that would have an adverse effect on a Fund. There is no way to accurately predict whether a trigger event will occur and, accordingly, insurance-linked instruments and similar investments carry significant risk. In addition to the specified trigger events, these types of investments may expose a Fund to other risks, including but not limited to issuer (credit) default, adverse regulatory or jurisdictional interpretations and adverse tax consequences. A Fund may gain exposure to reinsurance contracts (through insurance-linked securities, sidecars or otherwise). This may include exposure to “excess of loss” contracts, wherein liability arises only if and when losses exceed a specified amount, and proportional reinsurance, wherein a portion of the premiums and liabilities of the cedant associated with a specified business or a portfolio of insurance contracts are linked to a Fund’s investment. Investments linked to reinsurance transactions may involve significant insurance brokerage fees, fronting fees and other transaction costs. A series of major triggering events could cause the failure of a reinsurer. Similarly, to the extent a Fund invests in reinsurance-related securities for which a triggering event occurs, losses associated with such event will result in losses to a Fund and a series of major triggering events affecting a large portion of the reinsurance-related securities held by a Fund may result in substantial losses to a Fund. In addition, unexpected events such as natural disasters or terrorist attacks could lead to government intervention. Political, judicial and legal developments affecting the reinsurance industry could also create new and expanded theories of liability or regulatory or other requirements; such changes could have a material adverse effect on a Fund. In addition, the litigation environment in catastrophe-exposed states or regions could impact the frequency and severity of insurance claims, and litigation costs could decrease the value of the Fund's investment in products linked to reinsurance contracts. In recent years capital market

PIMCO Funds

participants have been increasingly active in the reinsurance market and markets for related risks. Increased competition could result in fewer submissions, lower premium rates and less favorable policy terms and conditions.

Certain insurance-linked instruments and similar investments may have limited liquidity, or may be illiquid. A Fund has limited transparency into the individual contracts underlying certain insurance-linked instruments and similar investments, which may make the risk assessment of them more difficult. These types of investments may be difficult to value.

The aforementioned instruments may include longevity and mortality investments, including indirect investment in pools of insurance-related longevity and mortality investments, including life insurance policies, annuity contracts and premium finance loans. Such investments are subject to “longevity risk” and/or “mortality risk.” Longevity risk is the risk that members of a reference population will live longer, on average, than anticipated. Mortality risk is the risk that members of a reference population will live shorter, on average, than anticipated. Changes in these rates can significantly affect the liabilities and cash needs of life insurers, annuity providers and pension funds. The terms of a longevity bond typically provide that the investor in the bond will receive less than the bond’s par amount at maturity if the actual average longevity (life span) of a specified population of people observed over a specified period of time (typically measured by a longevity index) is higher than a specified level. If longevity is higher than expected, the bond will return less than its par amount at maturity. A mortality bond, in contrast to a longevity bond, typically provides that the investor in the bond will receive less than the bond’s par amount at maturity if the mortality rate of a specified population of people observed over a specified period of time (typically measured by a mortality index) is higher than a specified level.

During their term, both longevity bonds and mortality bonds typically pay a floating rate of interest to investors. Longevity and mortality investments purchased by a Fund involve the risk of incorrectly predicting the actual level of longevity or mortality, as applicable, for the reference population of people. With respect to mortality investments held by a Fund, there is also the risk that an epidemic or other catastrophic event could strike the reference population, resulting in mortality rates exceeding expectations. A Fund may also gain this type of exposure through event-linked derivative instruments, such as swaps, that are contingent on or formulaically related to longevity or mortality risk.

Convertible and Equity Securities

Common stock represents equity ownership in a company and typically provides the common stockholder the power to vote on certain corporate actions, including the election of the company’s directors. Common stockholders participate in company profits through dividends and, in the event of bankruptcy, distributions, on a pro-rata basis after other claims are satisfied. Many factors affect the value of common stock, including earnings, earnings forecasts, corporate events and

factors impacting the issuer’s industry and the market generally. Common stock generally has the greatest appreciation and depreciation potential of all corporate securities.

Each Fund may invest in convertible securities and equity securities, as well as securities related to equities. Equity-related securities include securities having an equity component (e.g., hybrids, bank capital) and equity derivatives. The PIMCO Total Return Fund and the PIMCO Total Return Fund IV may not purchase common stock of operating companies, but this limitation does not prevent the Funds from holding common stock obtained through the conversion of convertible securities or common stock that is received as part of a corporate reorganization or debt restructuring (for example, as may occur during bankruptcies or distressed situations). Convertible securities are generally preferred securities and other securities, including fixed income securities and warrants, that are convertible into or exercisable for common stock at a stated price or rate. The price of a convertible security will normally vary in some proportion to changes in the price of the underlying common stock because of this conversion or exercise feature. However, the value of a convertible security may not increase or decrease as rapidly as the underlying common stock. A convertible security will normally also provide income and is subject to interest rate risk. Convertible securities may be lower-rated securities subject to greater levels of credit risk. A Fund may be forced to convert a security before it would otherwise choose, which may have an adverse effect on the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

“Synthetic” convertible securities are selected based on the similarity of their economic characteristics to those of a traditional convertible security due to the combination of separate securities that possess the two principal characteristics of a traditional convertible security, i.e., an income-producing security (“income-producing component”) and the right to acquire an equity security (“convertible component”). The income-producing component is achieved by investing in non-convertible, income-producing securities such as bonds, preferred securities and money market instruments, which may be represented by derivative instruments. The convertible component is achieved by investing in securities or instruments such as warrants or options to buy common stock at a certain exercise price, or options on a stock index. A simple example of a synthetic convertible security is the combination of a traditional corporate bond with a warrant to purchase equity securities of the issuer of the bond. A Fund may also purchase synthetic securities created by other parties, typically investment banks, including convertible structured notes. The income-producing and convertible components of a synthetic convertible security may be issued separately by different issuers and at different times.

makes required payments to holders of its bonds and other debt. For this reason, the value of preferred and other senior securities will usually react more strongly than bonds and other debt to actual or perceived changes in the company’s financial condition or prospects.

In addition, preferred and other senior securities often have special redemption rights allowing issuers to redeem such securities at par earlier than scheduled. If these rights are exercised, a Fund may have to reinvest proceeds in less attractive securities.

Among other risks described in this Prospectus, the following issues are particularly associated with investments in preferred and other senior securities.

■

Deferral and Omission of Distributions. Preferred and other senior securities may include features permitting or requiring the issuer to defer or omit distributions. Among other things, such deferral or omission may result in adverse tax consequences for a Fund.

■

In the future, preferred or other senior securities may be offered with features different from those described above, and as such, may entail different risks. Over longer periods of time, certain types of preferred or other senior securities may become more scarce or less liquid as a result of legislative changes. Such events may result in losses to a Fund as the prices of securities it holds may be negatively affected. Revisions to bank capital requirements by international regulatory bodies, to the extent they are adopted in the United States, may also negatively impact the market for certain preferred or senior securities.

While some countries or companies may be regarded as favorable investments, pure fixed income opportunities may be unattractive or limited due to insufficient supply, or legal or technical restrictions. In such cases, subject to its applicable investment restrictions, a Fund may consider convertible securities or equity securities to gain exposure to such investments.

At times, in connection with the restructuring of a preferred security or Fixed Income Instrument either outside of bankruptcy court or in the context of bankruptcy court proceedings, a Fund may determine or be required to accept equity securities, such as common stocks, in exchange for all or a portion of a preferred security or Fixed Income Instrument. Depending upon, among other things, PIMCO’s evaluation of the potential value of such securities in relation to the price that could be obtained by a Fund at any given time upon sale thereof, a Fund may determine to hold such securities in its portfolio.

of an equity security may also decline for a number of reasons that directly relate to the issuer, such as management performance, financial leverage and reduced demand for the issuer’s goods or services.

Foreign (Non-U.S.) Securities

Each Fund (except the PIMCO Long-Term U.S. Government and PIMCO Total Return II Funds) may invest in securities and instruments that are economically tied to foreign (non-U.S.) countries. PIMCO generally considers an instrument to be economically tied to a non-U.S. country if the issuer is a foreign (non-U.S.) government (or any political subdivision, agency, authority or instrumentality of such government), or if the issuer is organized under the laws of a non-U.S. country. A Fund’s investments in foreign (non-U.S.) securities may include American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), European Depositary Receipts (“EDRs”), Global Depositary Receipts (“GDRs”) and similar securities that represent interests in a non-U.S. company’s securities that have been deposited with a bank or trust and that trade on a U.S. exchange or over-the-counter. ADRs, EDRs and GDRs may be less liquid or may trade at a different price than the underlying securities of the issuer. In the case of money market instruments other than commercial paper and certificates of deposit, such instruments will be considered economically tied to a non-U.S. country if the issuer of such money market instrument is organized under the laws of a non-U.S. country. In the case of commercial paper and certificates of deposit, such instruments will be considered economically tied to a non-U.S. country if the “country of exposure” of such instrument is a non-U.S. country, as determined by the criteria set forth below. With respect to derivative instruments, PIMCO generally considers such instruments to be economically tied to non-U.S. countries if the underlying assets are: foreign currencies (or baskets or indexes of such currencies), or instruments or securities that are issued by foreign governments or issuers organized under the laws of a non-U.S. country (or if the underlying assets are money market instruments other than commercial paper and certificates of deposit, the issuer of such money market instrument is organized under the laws of a non-U.S. country or, in the case of underlying assets that are commercial paper or certificates of deposit, if the “country of exposure” of such money market instrument is a non-U.S. country). A security’s “country of exposure” is determined by PIMCO using certain factors provided by a third-party analytical service provider. The factors are applied in order such that the first factor to result in the assignment of a country determines the “country of exposure.” Both the factors and the order in which they are applied may change in the discretion of PIMCO. The current factors, listed in the order in which they are applied, are: (i) if an asset-backed or other collateralized security, the country in which the collateral backing the security is located; (ii) the “country of risk” of the issuer; (iii) if the security is guaranteed by the government of a country (or any political subdivision, agency, authority or instrumentality of such government), the country of the government or instrumentality providing the guarantee; (iv) the “country of risk” of the issuer’s ultimate parent; or (v) the country where the issuer is organized or incorporated under the laws thereof. “Country of risk” is a separate four-part test determined by the following factors, listed in order of importance: (i) management location; (ii) country of primary listing; (iii)

sales or revenue attributable to the country; and (iv) reporting currency of the issuer. For purposes of calculating foreign currency exposure limits (from non-U.S. dollar denominated securities or currencies), the Funds, as applicable, will net long and short exposures to the same currency, and for positions involving long and short exposures to different currencies, will count the greater absolute value as between the long and short exposures (after first netting exposure within the same currency).

Investing in foreign (non-U.S.) securities involves special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in U.S. securities. Investors should consider carefully the substantial risks involved for funds that invest in securities issued by foreign companies and governments of foreign countries. These risks include: differences in accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards; generally higher commission rates on foreign portfolio transactions; the possibility of the imposition of sanctions and other similar measures, nationalization, expropriation or confiscatory taxation; adverse changes in investment or exchange control regulations; market disruptions; the possibility of security suspensions; and political instability. Individual foreign (non-U.S.) economies may differ favorably or unfavorably from the U.S. economy in such respects as growth of gross domestic product, rates of inflation, capital reinvestment, resources, self-sufficiency and balance of payments position. Other countries’ financial infrastructure or settlement systems may be less developed than those of the United States. The securities markets, values of securities, yields and risks associated with foreign (non-U.S.) securities markets may change independently of each other. Also, foreign (non-U.S.) securities and dividends and interest payable on those securities may be subject to foreign taxes, including taxes withheld from payments on those securities. Foreign (non-U.S.) securities often trade with less frequency and volume than domestic securities and therefore may exhibit greater price volatility. Investments in foreign (non-U.S.) securities may also involve higher custodial costs than domestic investments and additional transaction costs with respect to foreign currency conversions. Changes in, or uncertainty concerning, foreign exchange rates also will affect the value of securities denominated or quoted in foreign currencies and in some cases could lead to uncertainty regarding the reliability of issuers’ financial reporting.

Certain Funds also may invest in sovereign debt issued by governments, their agencies or instrumentalities, or other government-related entities.

Holders of sovereign debt may be requested to participate in the rescheduling of such debt and to extend further loans to governmental entities. In addition, there is no bankruptcy proceeding by which defaulted sovereign debt may be collected.

■

Emerging Market Securities. Each Fund that may invest in foreign (non-U.S.) securities may invest in securities and instruments that are economically tied to developing (or “emerging market”) countries. PIMCO generally considers an instrument to be economically tied to an emerging market country if: the issuer is organized under the laws of an emerging market country; the currency of settlement of the security is a currency of an emerging market country; the security is guaranteed by the

government of an emerging market country (or any political subdivision, agency, authority or instrumentality of such government); for an asset-backed or other collateralized security, the country in which the collateral backing the security is located is an emerging market country; or the security’s “country of exposure” is an emerging market country, as determined by the criteria set forth below. With respect to derivative instruments, PIMCO generally considers such instruments to be economically tied to emerging market countries if the underlying assets are currencies of emerging market countries (or baskets or indexes of such currencies), or instruments or securities that are issued or guaranteed by governments of emerging market countries or by entities organized under the laws of emerging market countries or if an instrument’s “country of exposure” is an emerging market country. A security’s “country of exposure” is determined by PIMCO using certain factors provided by a third-party analytical service provider. The factors are applied in order such that the first factor to result in the assignment of a country determines the “country of exposure.” Both the factors and the order in which they are applied may change in the discretion of PIMCO. The current factors, listed in the order in which they are applied, are: (i) if an asset-backed or other collateralized security, the country in which the collateral backing the security is located; (ii) the “country of risk” of the issuer; (iii) if the security is guaranteed by the government of a country (or any political subdivision, agency, authority or instrumentality of such government), the country of the government or instrumentality providing the guarantee; (iv) the “country of risk” of the issuer’s ultimate parent; or (v) the country where the issuer is organized or incorporated under the laws thereof. “Country of risk” is a separate four-part test determined by the following factors, listed in order of importance: (i) management location; (ii) country of primary listing; (iii) sales or revenue attributable to the country; and (iv) reporting currency of the issuer. PIMCO has broad discretion to identify countries that it considers to qualify as emerging markets. In making investments in emerging market securities, a Fund emphasizes those countries with relatively low gross national product per capita and with the potential for rapid economic growth. Emerging market countries are generally located in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Latin America and Eastern Europe. PIMCO will select the country and currency composition based on its evaluation of relative interest rates, inflation rates, exchange rates, monetary and fiscal policies, trade and current account balances, legal and political developments and any other specific factors it believes to be relevant.

lead to the imposition of sanctions and other similar measures, price controls, forced mergers, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, seizure, nationalization, or creation of government monopolies. The currencies of emerging market countries may experience significant declines against the U.S. dollar, and devaluation may occur subsequent to investments in these currencies by a Fund. Many emerging market countries have experienced substantial, and in some periods extremely high, rates of inflation for many years. Inflation and rapid fluctuations in inflation rates have had, and may continue to have, negative effects on the economies and securities markets of certain emerging market countries.

Additional risks of emerging market securities may include: greater social, economic and political uncertainty and instability; more substantial governmental involvement in the economy; less governmental supervision and regulation; unavailability of currency hedging techniques; companies that are newly organized and small; differences in auditing and financial reporting standards, which may result in unavailability of material information about issuers; and less developed legal systems. Emerging securities markets may have different clearance and settlement procedures, which may be unable to keep pace with the volume of securities transactions or otherwise make it difficult to engage in such transactions. Settlement problems may cause a Fund to miss attractive investment opportunities, hold a portion of the assets in cash pending investment, or be delayed in disposing of a portfolio security. Such a delay could result in liability to a purchaser of the security. Custody services in many emerging market countries remain undeveloped. A Fund may be investing in emerging market countries where the current law and market practice carry fewer safeguards than in more developed markets, including the protection of client securities against claims from general creditors in the event of the insolvency of an agent selected to hold securities on behalf of a Fund, and the Fund’s custodian and PIMCO have assumed no liability for losses resulting from the Fund acting in accordance with such practice.

Foreign (Non-U.S.) Currencies

Direct investments in foreign (non-U.S.) currencies or in securities that trade in, or receive revenues in, foreign (non-U.S.) currencies will be subject to currency risk. Foreign currency exchange rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time. They generally are determined by supply and demand in the foreign exchange markets and the relative merits of investments in different countries, actual or perceived changes in interest rates and other complex factors. Currency exchange rates also can be affected unpredictably by intervention (or the failure to intervene) by U.S. or foreign (non-U.S.) governments or central banks, or by currency controls or political developments. Currencies in which a Fund’s assets are denominated may be devalued against the U.S. dollar, resulting in a loss to the Fund. For purposes of calculating foreign currency exposure limits (from non-U.S. dollar denominated securities or currencies), the Funds, as applicable, will net long and short exposures to the same currency, and for positions involving long and short

exposures to different currencies, will count the greater absolute value as between the long and short exposures (after first netting exposure within the same currency).

■

Foreign Currency Transactions. Funds that invest in securities denominated in foreign (non-U.S.) currencies may engage in foreign currency transactions on a spot (cash) basis, enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts and invest in foreign currency futures contracts and options on foreign currencies and futures. The PIMCO Total Return Fund IV may not engage in options on foreign currencies and futures. A forward foreign currency exchange contract, which involves an obligation to purchase or sell a specific currency at a future date at a price set at the time of the contract, reduces a Fund’s exposure to changes in the value of the currency it will deliver and increases its exposure to changes in the value of the currency it will receive for the duration of the contract. Certain foreign currency transactions may also be settled in cash rather than the actual delivery of the relevant currency. The effect on the value of a Fund is similar to selling securities denominated in one currency and purchasing securities denominated in another currency. Foreign currency transactions, like currency exchange rates, can be affected unpredictably by intervention (or the failure to intervene) by U.S. or foreign governments or central banks, or by currency controls or political developments. Such events may prevent or restrict a Fund’s ability to enter into foreign currency transactions, force a Fund to exit a foreign currency transaction at a disadvantageous time or price or result in penalties for a Fund, any of which may result in a loss to the Fund. A contract to sell a foreign currency would limit any potential gain that might be realized if the value of the hedged currency increases. A Fund may enter into these contracts to hedge against foreign exchange risk, to increase exposure to a foreign currency or to shift exposure to foreign currency fluctuations from one currency to another. To the extent foreign exchange transactions for a Fund are directed to the Fund’s custodian for execution, execution of such transactions may be better or worse than comparable transactions effected by other intermediaries. Suitable hedging transactions may not be available in all circumstances and there can be no assurance that a Fund will engage in such transactions at any given time or from time to time. Also, such transactions may not be successful and may eliminate any chance for a Fund to benefit from favorable fluctuations in relevant foreign currencies. A Fund may use one currency (or a basket of currencies) to hedge against adverse changes in the value of another currency (or a basket of currencies) when exchange rates between the two currencies are positively correlated.

currency, a Fund’s investments in such countries may be redenominated into a different or newly adopted currency. As a result, the value of those investments could decline significantly and unpredictably. In addition, securities or other investments that are redenominated may be subject to currency risk, liquidity risk and risk of improper valuation to a greater extent than similar investments currently denominated in euros. To the extent a currency used for redenomination purposes is not specified in respect of certain EMU-related investments, or should the euro cease to be used entirely, the currency in which such investments are denominated may be unclear, making such investments particularly difficult to value or dispose of.

A Fund may incur additional expenses to the extent it is required to seek judicial or other clarification of the denomination or value of such securities. There can be no assurance that if a Fund earns income or capital gains in a non-U.S. country or PIMCO otherwise seeks to withdraw a Fund’s investments from a given country, capital controls imposed by such country will not prevent, or cause significant expense, or delay in, doing so.

Repurchase Agreements

Each Fund may enter into repurchase agreements, in which a Fund purchases a security from a bank or broker-dealer that agrees to repurchase the security at the Fund’s cost plus interest within a specified time. If the party agreeing to repurchase should default, the Fund will seek to sell the securities which it holds. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price. The PIMCO Total Return Fund IV will limit investments in repurchase agreements to 50% of the total assets of the Fund. The security subject to a repurchase agreement may be or become illiquid. These events could also trigger adverse tax consequences for the Fund.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements, Dollar Rolls and Other Borrowings

Each Fund (except the PIMCO Total Return Fund IV) may enter into reverse repurchase agreements and dollar rolls, subject to a Fund’s limitations on borrowings. The PIMCO Total Return Fund IV may enter into dollar rolls, subject to the Fund's limitations on borrowings. A reverse repurchase agreement involves the sale of a security by a Fund and its agreement to repurchase the instrument at a specified time and price. A dollar roll is similar except that the counterparty is not obligated to return the same securities as those originally sold by a Fund but only securities that are “substantially identical.” Reverse repurchase agreements and dollar rolls may be considered borrowing for some purposes. Reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls and other forms of borrowings may create leveraging risk for a Fund.

Each Fund (except the PIMCO Total Return Fund IV) may borrow money to the extent permitted under the 1940 Act. This means that, in general, a Fund may borrow money from banks for any purpose in an amount up to one-third of the Fund’s total assets, less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities. A Fund may also

borrow money for temporary administrative purposes in an amount not to exceed 5% of a Fund’s total assets. In addition, a Fund may borrow from certain other PIMCO funds in inter-fund lending transactions to the extent permitted by an exemptive order from the SEC. The PIMCO Total Return Fund IV may not borrow in excess of 10% of the value of its respective total assets and then only as a temporary measure to facilitate the meeting of redemption requests (not for leverage) or for extraordinary or emergency purposes.

Derivatives

Each Fund may, but is not required to, use derivatives and other similar instruments (referred to collectively as “derivatives”) for risk management purposes or as part of its investment strategies. Additionally, a Fund may invest in futures and other derivatives that provide relevant exposures, including for equitization and hedging purposes, using derivatives that provide exposure that is not identical to the instruments or markets in which the Fund seeks to invest at least 80% of its assets, as applicable. Investments in derivatives may take the form of buying and/or writing (selling) derivatives. Generally, derivatives are financial contracts whose value depends upon, or is derived from, the value of an underlying asset, reference rate or index, and may relate to stocks, bonds, interest rates, spreads between different interest rates, currencies or currency exchange rates, commodities, and related indexes. Examples of derivative instruments include options contracts, futures contracts, options on futures contracts and swap agreements (including, but not limited to, credit default swaps and swaps on exchange-traded funds). Each Fund may invest some or all of its assets in derivative instruments, subject to the Fund’s objective and policies. The PIMCO Total Return Fund IV will seek to limit exposure to interest rate swaps to 10% of its total assets and will limit exposure to credit default swaps to 5% of its total assets. The PIMCO Total Return Fund IV will not invest in options. A portfolio manager may decide not to employ any of these strategies and there is no assurance that any derivatives strategy used by a Fund will succeed. A description of these and other derivative instruments that the Funds may use are described under “Investment Objectives and Policies” in the SAI.

A Fund’s use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other more traditional investments. Certain derivative transactions may have a leveraging effect on a Fund. For example, a small investment in a derivative instrument may have a significant impact on a Fund’s exposure to interest rates, currency exchange rates or other investments. As a result, a relatively small price movement in a derivative instrument may cause an immediate and substantial loss or gain. A Fund may engage in such transactions regardless of whether the Fund owns the asset, instrument or components of the index underlying the derivative instrument. A Fund may invest a significant portion of its assets in these types of instruments. If it does, the Fund’s investment exposure could far exceed the value of its portfolio securities and its investment performance could be primarily dependent upon securities it does not own. A description of various risks associated with particular derivative instruments is included in “Investment Objectives and

120 Prospectus | PIMCO Funds

Prospectus

Policies” in the SAI. The following provides a more general discussion of important risk factors relating to all derivative instruments that may be used by the Funds.

Management Risk. Derivative products are highly specialized instruments that require investment techniques and risk analyses different from those associated with stocks and bonds. The use of a derivative requires an understanding not only of the underlying instrument but also of the derivative itself, without the benefit of observing the performance of the derivative under all possible market conditions.

Counterparty Risk (including Credit Risk). The use of certain derivative instruments involves the risk that a loss may be sustained as a result of the failure of another party to the contract (usually referred to as a “counterparty”) to make required payments or otherwise comply with the contract’s terms. Additionally, a short position in a credit default swap could result in losses if a Fund does not correctly evaluate the creditworthiness of the company on which the credit default swap is based. Counterparty risk also refers to the risks of having concentrated exposure to a counterparty.

Market and Fund Liquidity Risk. Liquidity risk exists when a particular derivative instrument is difficult to purchase or sell. If a derivative transaction is particularly large or if the relevant market is illiquid (as is the case with many privately negotiated derivatives), it may not be possible to initiate a transaction or liquidate a position at an advantageous time or price. Liquidity risk also refers to the risk that the Fund may be required to hold additional cash or sell other investments in order to obtain cash to close out derivatives or meet the liquidity demands that derivatives can create to make payments of margin, collateral, or settlement payments to counterparties. The Fund may have to sell a security at a disadvantageous time or price to meet such obligations.

Leverage Risk. Because many derivatives have a leverage component, adverse changes in the value or level of the underlying asset, reference rate or index could result in a loss substantially greater than the amount invested in the derivative itself. Certain derivatives have the potential for unlimited loss, regardless of the size of the initial investment. When a Fund uses derivatives for leverage, investments in that Fund will tend to be more volatile, resulting in larger gains or losses in response to market changes. Leveraging transactions pursued by the Fund may increase its duration and sensitivity to interest rate risks.

Lack of Availability. Because the markets for certain derivative instruments (including markets located in foreign countries) are relatively new and still developing, suitable derivatives transactions may not be available in all circumstances for risk management or other purposes. Upon the expiration of a particular contract, a portfolio manager may wish to retain a Fund’s position in the derivative instrument by entering into a similar contract, but may be unable to do so if the counterparty to the original contract is unwilling to enter into the new contract and no other appropriate counterparty can be found. There is no assurance that a Fund will engage in derivatives transactions

at any time or from time to time. A Fund’s ability to use derivatives may also be limited by certain regulatory and tax considerations.

Market and Other Risks. Like most other investments, derivative instruments are subject to the risk that the market value of the instrument will change in a way detrimental to a Fund’s interest. If a portfolio manager incorrectly forecasts the values of securities, currencies or interest rates or other economic factors in using derivatives for a Fund, the Fund might have been in a better position if it had not entered into the transaction at all. While some strategies involving derivative instruments can reduce the risk of loss, they can also reduce the opportunity for gain or even result in losses by offsetting favorable price movements in other Fund investments. The regulation of the derivatives markets has increased over the past several years, and additional future regulation of the derivatives markets may make derivatives more costly, may limit the availability or reduce the liquidity of derivatives, or may otherwise adversely affect the value or performance of derivatives. Any such adverse future developments could impair the effectiveness or raise the costs of the Fund’s derivative transactions, or impede the employment of the Fund’s derivatives strategies, or adversely affect the Fund’s performance.

Other risks in using derivatives include the risk of mispricing and improper valuation of derivatives. Many derivatives, in particular privately negotiated derivatives, are complex and often valued subjectively. Improper valuations can result in increased cash payment requirements to counterparties or a loss of value to the Fund. Also, the value of derivatives may not correlate perfectly, or at all, with the value of the assets, reference rates or indexes they are designed to closely track. For example, a swap agreement on an exchange-traded fund would not correlate perfectly with the index upon which the exchange-traded fund is based because the fund's return is net of fees and expenses. In addition, a Fund’s use of derivatives may cause the Fund to realize higher amounts of short-term capital gains (generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates) than if the Fund had not used such instruments.

Operational and Legal Risks. Using derivatives is also subject to operational and legal risks. Operational risk generally refers to the risk related to potential operational issues, including documentation issues, settlement issues, system failures, inadequate controls, and human error. Legal risk generally refers to insufficient documentation, insufficient capacity or authority of counterparty, or legality or enforceability of a contract.

performance (or inverse performance) of the particular index, and the degree of variation could be substantial, particularly over longer periods. There are a number of factors which may prevent a Fund, or derivatives or other strategies used by a Fund, from achieving a desired correlation with an index. These may include, but are not limited to: (i) the impact of fund fees, expenses and transaction costs, including borrowing and brokerage costs/bid-ask spreads, which are not reflected in index returns; (ii) differences in the timing of daily calculations of the value of an index and the timing of the valuation of derivatives, securities and other assets held by a Fund and the determination of the NAV of Fund shares; (iii) disruptions or illiquidity in the markets for derivative instruments or securities in which a Fund invests; (iv) a Fund having exposure to or holding less than all of the securities in the underlying index and/or having exposure to or holding securities not included in the underlying index; (v) large or unexpected movements of assets into and out of a Fund (due to share purchases or redemptions, for example), potentially resulting in the Fund being over- or under-exposed to the index; (vi) the impact of accounting standards or changes thereto; (vii) changes to the applicable index that are not disseminated in advance; (viii) a possible need to conform a Fund’s portfolio holdings to comply with investment restrictions or policies or regulatory or tax law requirements; and (ix) fluctuations in currency exchange rates.

Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs)

REITs are pooled investment vehicles that own, and usually operate, income-producing real estate. Some REITs also finance real estate. If a REIT meets certain requirements, including distributing to shareholders substantially all of its taxable income (other than net capital gains), then it is not taxed on the income distributed to shareholders. Therefore, REITs tend to pay higher dividends than other issuers.

An investment in a REIT, or in a real-estate linked derivative instrument linked to the value of a REIT, is subject to the risks that impact the value of the underlying properties of the REIT. These risks include a possible decline in the value of (or income generated by) the real estate, variations in rental income, fluctuations in occupancy levels, changes in the availability or terms of mortgages and other financing that may render the sale or refinancing of properties difficult or unattractive, loss to casualty or condemnation, and changes in local and general economic conditions. Additionally, an investment in REITs, and investing in the real estate market generally, is subject to risks related to supply and demand, including reduced demand for properties or real estate-related services, reduced demand for commercial and office space as well as increased maintenance or tenant improvement costs to convert properties for other uses, default risk of tenants and borrowers, the financial condition of tenants, buyers and sellers, and the inability to re-lease space on attractive terms or to obtain mortgage financing on a timely basis or at all. Additional risks include changes in interest rates, zoning laws, regulatory limitations on rents, property taxes and operating expenses. Real estate securities may have limited diversification and, therefore, tend to be subject to risks inherent in operating and financing a limited number of projects. Other factors that may adversely affect REITs include poor performance by management of the REIT, changes to the tax laws, or failure by the REIT to qualify for

tax-free distribution of income. REITs are also subject to default by borrowers and self-liquidation, and are heavily dependent on cash flow. Some REITs lack diversification because they invest in a limited number of properties, a narrow geographic area, or a single type of property. Mortgage REITs may be impacted by the quality of the credit extended.

Exchange-Traded Notes (ETNs)

ETNs are senior, unsecured, unsubordinated debt securities whose returns are linked to the performance of a particular market benchmark or strategy minus applicable fees. ETNs are traded on an exchange (e.g., the NYSE) during normal trading hours. However, investors can also hold the ETN until maturity. At maturity, the issuer pays to the investor a cash amount equal to the principal amount, subject to the day’s market benchmark or strategy factor.

ETNs do not make periodic coupon payments or provide principal protection. ETNs are subject to credit risk and the value of the ETN may drop due to a downgrade in the issuer’s credit rating, despite the underlying market benchmark or strategy remaining unchanged. The value of an ETN may also be influenced by time to maturity, level of supply and demand for the ETN, volatility and lack of liquidity in underlying assets, changes in the applicable interest rates, changes in the issuer’s credit rating, and economic, legal, political, or geographic events that affect the referenced underlying asset. When a Fund invests in ETNs, it will bear its proportionate share of any fees and expenses borne by the ETN. A Fund’s decision to sell its ETN holdings may be limited by the availability of a secondary market. ETNs are also subject to tax risk. The timing and character of income and gains derived by a Fund from investments in ETNs may be affected by future legislation. There may be times when an ETN share trades at a premium or discount to its market benchmark or strategy.

Delayed Funding Loans and Revolving Credit Facilities

Each Fund may also enter into, or acquire participations in, delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities, in which a lender agrees to make loans up to a maximum amount upon demand by the borrower during a specified term. These commitments may have the effect of requiring a Fund to increase its investment in a company at a time when it might not otherwise decide to do so (including at a time when the company’s financial condition makes it unlikely that such amounts will be repaid). Delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities are subject to credit, interest rate and liquidity risk and the risks of being a lender.

When-Issued, Delayed Delivery and Forward Commitment Transactions

122 Prospectus | PIMCO Funds

Prospectus

Therefore, these transactions may result in a form of leverage and increase a Fund’s overall investment exposure. Typically, no income accrues on securities a Fund has committed to purchase prior to the time delivery of the securities is made. When a Fund has sold a security on a when-issued, delayed delivery, or forward commitment basis, the Fund does not participate in future gains or losses with respect to the security. If the other party to a transaction fails to pay for the securities, a Fund could suffer a loss. Additionally, when selling a security on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment basis without owning the security, a Fund will incur a loss if the security’s price appreciates in value such that the security’s price is above the agreed-upon price on the settlement date. In accordance with current federal securities laws, rules and staff positions, the PIMCO Total Return Fund IV will segregate or “earmark” cash equivalent securities to cover obligations associated with forward commitments, including to be announced mortgage-backed securities.

Investment in Other Investment Companies

Each Fund may invest in securities of other investment companies, such as open-end or closed-end management investment companies, including exchange-traded funds or in pooled accounts, or other unregistered accounts or investment vehicles to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act, the rules and regulations thereunder or any exemptive relief therefrom. A Fund may invest in other investment companies to gain broad market or sector exposure, including during periods when it has large amounts of uninvested cash or when PIMCO believes share prices of other investment companies offer attractive values. As a shareholder of an investment company or other pooled vehicle, a Fund may indirectly bear investment advisory fees, supervisory and administrative fees, service fees and other fees which are in addition to the fees the Fund pays its service providers. To the extent a Fund invests in other investment companies that are advised by PIMCO, PIMCO expects to select such investments without considering or canvassing the universe of available unaffiliated investment companies.

Each Fund may invest in certain money market funds and/or short-term bond funds (“Central Funds”), to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act, the rules thereunder or exemptive relief therefrom. The Central Funds are registered investment companies created for use solely by the series of the registered investment companies advised by PIMCO, in connection with their cash management activities. The main investments of the Central Funds are money market instruments and short maturity Fixed Income Instruments. The Central Funds may incur expenses related to their investment activities, but do not pay investment advisory or supervisory and administrative fees to PIMCO.

market fund or cash management pooled investment vehicle, a Fund would indirectly bear the fees and expenses of the underlying fund or account which are in addition to the fees the Fund pays its service providers.

Subject to the restrictions and limitations of the 1940 Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder and any exemptive relief therefrom, each Fund may, in the future, elect to pursue its investment objective either by investing directly in securities or by investing in one or more underlying investment vehicles or companies that have substantially similar investment objectives and policies as the Fund.

Small-Cap and Mid-Cap Companies

Certain Funds may invest in equity securities of small-capitalization and mid-capitalization companies. The Funds consider a small-cap company to be a company with a market capitalization of up to $1.5 billion and a mid-cap company to be a company with a market capitalization of between $1.5 billion and $10 billion. Investments in small-cap and mid-cap companies involve greater risk than investments in large-capitalization companies. Small- and mid-cap companies may not have an established financial history, which can present valuation challenges. The equity securities of small- and mid-cap companies may be subject to increased market fluctuations, due to less liquid markets and more limited managerial and financial resources or they may depend on a small or inexperienced management group. A Fund’s investment in small- and mid-cap companies may increase the volatility of a Fund’s portfolio.

Short Sales

A Fund may make short sales as part of its overall portfolio management strategies or to offset a potential decline in value of a security. A short sale involves the sale of a security that is borrowed from a broker or other institution to complete the sale. Short sales expose a Fund to the risk that it will be required to acquire, convert or exchange securities to replace the borrowed securities (also known as “covering” the short position) at a time when the securities sold short have appreciated in value, thus resulting in a loss to a Fund. A short sale is “against the box” to the extent that a Fund contemporaneously owns, or has the right to obtain at no added cost, securities identical to those sold short. A Fund (except the PIMCO Total Return Fund IV) may engage in short selling to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act and rules and interpretations thereunder and other federal securities laws. The PIMCO Total Return Fund IV will limit short sales, including short exposures obtained using derivative instruments, to 10% of its total assets. To the extent a Fund engages in short selling in foreign (non-U.S.) jurisdictions, a Fund will do so to the extent permitted by the laws and regulations of such jurisdiction.

Illiquid Investments

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus 123

PIMCO Funds

and transactions in illiquid investments may entail registration expenses and other transaction costs that are higher than those for transactions in liquid investments. The term “illiquid investments” for this purpose means investments that a Fund reasonably expects cannot be sold or disposed of in current market conditions in seven calendar days or less without the sale or disposition significantly changing the market value of the investment. Restricted securities, i.e., securities subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale, may be illiquid. However, some restricted securities (such as securities issued pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act and certain commercial paper) may be treated as liquid (i.e., classified by a Fund in a liquidity category other than “illiquid” pursuant to a Fund’s liquidity risk management procedures), although they may be relatively less liquid than registered securities traded on established secondary markets. Additional discussion of illiquid investments and related regulatory limits and requirements is available under “Investment Objectives and Policies” in the SAI.

Fund Distribution Rates

Although certain Funds may seek to maintain level distributions, such Funds’ distribution rates may be affected by numerous factors, including but not limited to changes in realized and projected market returns, fluctuations in market interest rates, Fund performance, and other factors. There can be no assurance that a change in market conditions or other factors will not result in a change in a Fund’s distribution rate or that the rate will be sustainable in the future.

For instance, during periods of low or declining interest rates, a Fund’s distributable income and dividend levels may decline for many reasons. For example, a Fund may have to deploy uninvested assets (whether from purchases of Fund shares, proceeds from matured, traded or called debt obligations or other sources) in new, lower yielding instruments. Additionally, payments from certain instruments that may be held by a Fund (such as variable and floating rate securities) may be negatively impacted by declining interest rates, which may also lead to a decline in the Fund’s distributable income and dividend levels.

Loans of Portfolio Securities

For the purpose of achieving income, each Fund (except the PIMCO Total Return Fund IV) may lend its portfolio securities to brokers, dealers, and other financial institutions provided that a number of conditions are satisfied, including that the loan is fully collateralized. Please see “Investment Objectives and Policies” in the SAI for details. When a Fund lends portfolio securities, its investment performance will continue to reflect changes in the value of the securities loaned, and a Fund will also receive a fee or interest on the collateral. Securities lending involves the risk of loss of rights in the collateral or delay in recovery of the collateral if the borrower fails to return the security loaned or becomes insolvent. A Fund may pay lending fees to a party arranging the loan, which may be an affiliate of a Fund. Cash collateral received by a Fund in securities lending transactions may be invested in short-term liquid fixed income instruments or in money market or short-term mutual funds, or similar investment vehicles, including affiliated money market or short-term mutual funds. As a shareholder of an investment company or other pooled vehicle, a Fund may indirectly

bear investment advisory fees, supervisory and administrative fees, service fees and other fees which are in addition to the fees a Fund pays its service providers. To the extent such cash collateral is invested in an affiliated money market or short-term mutual fund, such fees generally will not be waived, and PIMCO expects to select such an investment without considering or canvassing the universe of available unaffiliated investment companies. A Fund bears the risk of such investments.

Portfolio Turnover

The length of time a Fund has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by a Fund is known as “portfolio turnover.” When the portfolio managers deem it appropriate and particularly during periods of volatile market movements, a Fund may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective. Higher portfolio turnover (e.g., an annual rate greater than 100% of the average value of the Fund’s portfolio) involves correspondingly greater expenses to a Fund, including brokerage commissions or dealer markups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect a Fund’s performance. Please see a Fund's “Fund Summary—Portfolio Turnover” or the “Financial Highlights” in this prospectus for the portfolio turnover rates of the Funds that were operational during the last fiscal year.

Temporary Defensive Positions

For temporary defensive purposes, each Fund may invest without limit in U.S. debt securities, including taxable securities and short-term money market securities in attempting to respond to adverse market, economic, political, or other conditions, as determined by PIMCO. When a Fund engages in such strategies, it may not achieve its investment objective.

From time to time, as the prevailing market and interest rate environments warrant, and at the discretion of its portfolio manager, some portion of a Fund’s total net assets may be uninvested. In such cases, Fund assets will be held in cash in a Fund’s custody account. Cash assets are generally not income-generating and would impact a Fund’s performance.

Changes in Investment Objectives and Policies

The investment objectives of each of the PIMCO Climate Bond, PIMCO Extended Duration, PIMCO Long Duration Total Return, PIMCO Mortgage Opportunities and Bond, PIMCO Total Return IV and PIMCO Dynamic Bond Funds are non-fundamental and may be changed by the Board of Trustees without shareholder approval. The investment objectives of each other Fund are fundamental and may not be changed without shareholder approval. Unless otherwise stated, all other investment policies of the Funds may be changed by the Board of Trustees without shareholder approval.

Percentage Investment Limitations

Unless otherwise stated, all percentage limitations on Fund investments listed in this prospectus will apply at the time of investment. A Fund would not violate these limitations unless an excess or deficiency occurs or exists immediately after and as a result of an investment. Each of the PIMCO GNMA and Government Securities, PIMCO Investment Grade Credit Bond, PIMCO Long-Term U.S. Government Bond, PIMCO Mortgage-Backed Securities, PIMCO Low Duration Opportunities Fund and PIMCO Dynamic Bond Funds has adopted a non-fundamental investment policy to invest at least 80% of its assets in investments suggested by its name. For purposes of this policy, the term “assets” means net assets plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes.

Credit Ratings and Unrated Securities

Rating agencies are private services that provide ratings of the credit quality of fixed income securities, including convertible securities. Appendix A to this Prospectus describes the various ratings assigned to fixed income securities by Moody’s, S&P and Fitch. Ratings assigned by a rating agency are not absolute standards of credit quality and do not evaluate market risks. Rating agencies may fail to make timely changes in credit ratings and an issuer’s current financial condition may be better or worse than a rating indicates. A Fund will not necessarily sell a security when its rating is reduced below its rating at the time of purchase. The ratings of a fixed income security may change over time. Moody’s, S&P and Fitch monitor and evaluate the ratings assigned to securities on an ongoing basis. As a result, debt instruments held by a Fund could receive a higher rating or a lower rating during the period in which they are held by a Fund. PIMCO does not rely solely on credit ratings, and develops its own analysis of issuer credit quality.

A Fund may purchase unrated securities (which are not rated by a rating agency) if PIMCO determines, in its sole discretion, that the security is of comparable quality to a rated security that the Fund may purchase. In making ratings determinations, PIMCO may take into account different factors than those taken into account by rating agencies, and PIMCO’s rating of a security may differ from the rating that a rating agency may have given the same security. Unrated securities may be less liquid than comparable rated securities and involve the risk that a portfolio manager may not accurately evaluate the security’s comparative credit rating. Analysis of the creditworthiness of issuers of high yield securities may be more complex than for issuers of higher-quality fixed income securities. To the extent that a Fund invests in high yield and/or unrated securities, a Fund’s success in achieving its investment objective may depend more heavily on a portfolio manager's creditworthiness analysis than if a Fund invested exclusively in higher-quality and higher-rated securities.

Additional Information Regarding Certain Screens Used by PIMCO Total Return Fund V

As noted above, PIMCO Total Return Fund V will not invest in the securities of any non-governmental issuer known to (1) derive gross revenue from the production, direction or publication of adult

entertainment materials, as well as those known to be directly engaged in the business of distributing and retailing such materials, (2) provide abortions or manufacture abortifacients (and entities that own or are owned thereby), (3) manufacture products intended for contraception, (4) engage in certain types of stem cell research (including the use of embryonic or fetal stem cells to develop products), or (5) produce and/or retail cannabis for recreational use. In analyzing whether an issuer meets any of the criteria described above, PIMCO intends to predominantly rely upon, among other things, information provided by an independent third party to determine whether an issuer is known to be engaged in an activity, including research and screens employed for certain values-based or Catholic institutions such as the MSCI Catholic Values Screening Methodology and related research. PIMCO may also apply additional screens and exclusions. For example, where an issuer is not covered by a third-party, PIMCO may conduct additional reviews to determine whether an investment is consistent with the philosophy of these screens and/or exclusions.

Issuers may be identified as known to be engaged in an activity by an independent third-party (whose methodology is summarized herein as of September 2022) using a combination of industry classifications, business descriptions and keyword searches in select company filings to identify issuers that could have involvement in one or more of the covered activities described above. Issuers found without any potential involvement in a covered activity during this step are generally treated as not involved in the activity by such third-party. If the initial review process identifies the potential for involvement, an analyst of the third-party may review an issuer’s regulatory filings, annual reports, company websites and third-party sources, including news, media and non-governmental organizations, to determine if a company is in fact involved in one of the covered activities. If after this step there is no evidence to flag the company for one of the covered activities, then the company generally is treated as not involved in the activity by the third-party. If, however, during the screening process or analyst review evidence is captured relating to the company’s involvement in a covered activity, then the company generally is treated as involved in the activity by the third-party. The third-party may only refresh its research periodically. With respect to abortion, abortifacients and stem cell research, the third-party may in addition to, or in lieu of, the above utilize surveys of issuers. An issuer may be classified as not involved in an activity if it does not respond in the affirmative to such surveys. There can be no guarantee that the activities of the companies identified for investment (or exclusion) by the Fund will align with the principles of a faith-based investor.

Below is additional information regarding these screens as of September 2022:

■

Adult Entertainment Materials. Adult entertainment materials generally are those in which the dominant theme is “sexually explicit” conduct. This screen is intended to exclude companies deriving gross revenue from the production, direction or publication of adult entertainment materials, as well as those known to be directly engaged in the business of distributing and retailing such materials. Companies involved in the independent

PIMCO Funds

wholesale of such materials generally are viewed as distributors thereof. In addition, companies that operate specialty stores or online sites for adult entertainment materials generally are viewed as retailers thereof.

■

Abortion Providers and Abortifacient Manufacturers. This screen generally is intended to exclude companies with an industry tie to abortion or abortifacients, including abortion providers, acute care facility operators, abortifacient manufacturers, and issuers that own or are owned by one of the foregoing. (Abortifacients generally are drugs, compounds or chemicals that result in the termination of a pregnancy or that are otherwise recognized as having significant secondary use in the termination of pregnancy. The following are not intended to be excluded: companies that solely market, license, or distribute abortifacients; companies that manufacture non-abortifacient specific products such as saline solution; companies that retail or prescribe abortifacients, such as pharmacies; companies that manufacture abortifacient drugs exclusively for research or animal use; and/or companies that produce drugs that include abortion as a side effect.)

■

Contraceptive Manufacturers. Contraceptives include: hormonal contraceptives; vaginal barriers; intrauterine devices; contraceptive implants; spermicide; and permanent contraceptives. This screen is not intended to encompass retailers, distributors, insurers, supporters or researchers of contraceptives.

■

Stem Cell Research Providers. This screen focuses on companies engaged in stem cell research using cells derived from human embryos or human fetal tissue, companies that use fetal cell lines in the development of vaccines and other biologics, companies that develop or produce products for scientific research specifically on embryonic or fetal stem cells and companies that use embryonic or fetal stem cells to develop products.

■

Recreational Cannabis. Companies involved in the production or retail of cannabis for recreational use. This screen generally is not intended to encompass companies involved with synthetic cannabis or chemicals, CBD, complementary products, support services, farming equipment, marketing, technology, transportation, leasing, or medical cannabis.

MSCI Catholic Values Screening Methodology and related research provide information on companies involved in specific business activities of concern to Catholic investors to assist asset managers in analyzing investment decisions, including exclusionary screening factors, underlying metrics and thresholds, to determine whether a non-governmental issuer meets any of the criteria described above.

Additional Information Regarding Certain Screens Used by PIMCO Total Return ESG Fund

As noted above, the PIMCO Total Return ESG Fund will not invest in the securities of any non-governmental issuer determined by PIMCO to be engaged principally in the (1) manufacture of alcoholic beverages, tobacco products or military equipment, (2) operation of gambling

casinos, (3) production or distribution of adult entertainment materials, (4) oil industry, including extraction, production, and refining or (5) production, distribution of coal and coal fired generation. In analyzing whether an issuer meets any of the criteria described above, PIMCO intends to predominantly rely upon, among other things, information provided by an independent third party. PIMCO may also apply additional screens and exclusions. For example, where an issuer is not covered by a third-party, PIMCO may conduct additional reviews to determine whether an investment is consistent with the philosophy of these screens and/or exclusions.

Additional Information Regarding Certain Screens Used by PIMCO Climate Bond Fund

As noted above, the PIMCO Climate Bond Fund will not invest in the securities of any issuer determined by PIMCO to be engaged principally in the fossil fuel-related sectors, including distribution/retail, equipment and services, extraction and production, petrochemicals, pipelines and transportation and refining, and the production or distribution of coal and coal fired generation. In analyzing whether an issuer meets any of the criteria described above, PIMCO intends to predominantly rely upon, among other things, information provided by an independent third party. PIMCO may also apply additional screens and exclusions. For example, where an issuer is not covered by a third-party, PIMCO may conduct additional reviews to determine whether an investment is consistent with the philosophy of these screens and/or exclusions.

Other Investments and Techniques

The Funds may invest in other types of securities and use a variety of investment techniques and strategies that are not described in this Prospectus. These securities and techniques may subject the Funds to additional risks. Please see the SAI for additional information about the securities and investment techniques described in this Prospectus and about additional securities and techniques that may be used by the Funds.

Geopolitical Conflicts

The occurrence of geopolitical conflicts, war or terrorist activities could have adverse impacts on markets in various and unpredictable ways. For example, following Russia’s large-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Russia, and other countries, persons and entities that were viewed as having provided material aid to Russia’s aggression against Ukraine, became the subject of economic sanctions and import and export controls imposed by countries throughout the world, including the United States. Such measures have had and may continue to have an adverse effect on the Russian, Belarusian and other securities and economies. Additional examples include, but are not limited to, heightened concerns of trade disputes, which could result in increased tariffs, trade restrictions or other retaliatory countermeasures. The extent, duration and impact of geopolitical conflicts and related market impacts are difficult to ascertain, but could be significant and could have significant adverse effects on regional and global economies and

the markets for certain securities and commodities, such as oil, natural gas, steel and aluminum, as well as other sectors, and on a Fund’s investments.

Cyber Security

As the use of complex information technology and communications systems, including cloud-based technology, has become more prevalent and interconnected in the course of business, the Funds have become potentially more susceptible to operational and information security risks resulting from breaches in cyber security despite the efforts of PIMCO, a Fund, or their service providers to adopt technologies, processes, and practices intended to mitigate these risks. Disruptions or failures that affect services providers, counterparties, market participants, or issuers of securities held by a Fund may adversely affect PIMCO or a Fund, including by causing losses or impairing PIMCO’s or a Fund’s operations. Information relating to a Fund’s investments has been and will in the future be delivered electronically, which can give rise to a number of risks, including, but not limited to, the risks that such communications may contain computer viruses or other defects, may not be accurately replicated on other systems, or may be intercepted, deleted or interfered with, without the knowledge of the sender or the intended recipient.

A breach in cyber security refers to both intentional and unintentional cyber events that may, among other things, cause a Fund to lose proprietary information, suffer data corruption and/or destruction or lose operational capacity, result in the unauthorized release or other misuse of confidential information, or otherwise disrupt normal business operations. Geopolitical tensions can increase the scale and sophistication of deliberate cybersecurity attacks, particularly those from nation-states or from entities with nation-state backing, who may desire to use cybersecurity attacks to cause damage or create leverage against geopolitical rivals. Cyber security breaches may involve unauthorized access to the digital information systems that support a Fund (e.g., through “hacking,” ransomware or malicious software coding) or outside attacks such as denial-of-service attacks (i.e., efforts to make network services unavailable to intended users), but may also result from intentionally or unintentionally harmful acts of PIMCO personnel. In addition, cyber security breaches involving third-party service providers that provide services to PIMCO or a Fund (including but not limited to vendors, advisers, sub-advisers, administrators, transfer agents, regulatory authorities, custodians, registry operators, distributors and other third parties), trading counterparties and issuers in which a Fund invests can also subject a Fund to many of the same risks associated with direct cyber security breaches. PIMCO’s use of cloud-based service providers could heighten or change these risks. In addition, work-from-home arrangements by a Fund, PIMCO and its service providers could increase all of the above risks, create additional data and information accessibility concerns, and make a Fund, PIMCO or its service providers susceptible to operational disruptions, any of which could adversely impact their operations.

invests could adversely impact such counterparties or issuers and cause the Fund’s investments to lose value. These failures or breaches may also result in disruptions to business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses; interference with a Fund’s ability to calculate its NAV, process shareholder transactions or otherwise transact business with shareholders; impediments to trading; violations of applicable privacy and other laws; regulatory fines; penalties; third-party claims in litigation; reputational damage; reimbursement or other compensation costs; additional compliance and cyber security risk management costs and other adverse consequences. In addition, substantial costs may be incurred in order to prevent any cyber incidents in the future.

Like with operational risk in general, the Funds have established business continuity plans and risk management systems designed to reduce the risks associated with cyber security. However, there are inherent limitations in these plans and systems, including that certain risks may not have been identified, in large part because different or unknown threats may emerge in the future. As such, there is no guarantee that such efforts will succeed, especially because the Funds do not directly control the cyber security systems of issuers in which a Fund may invest, trading counterparties or third-party service providers to the Funds. Such entities have experienced cyber attacks and other attempts to gain unauthorized access to systems from time to time, and there is no guarantee that efforts to prevent or mitigate the effects of such attacks or other attempts to gain unauthorized access will be successful. There is also a risk that cyber security breaches may not be detected. The Funds and their shareholders may suffer losses as a result of a cyber security breach related to the Funds, their service providers, trading counterparties or the issuers in which a Fund invests.

Regulatory Changes

Financial entities, such as investment companies and investment advisers, are generally subject to extensive government regulation and intervention. Government regulation and/or intervention may change the way a Fund is regulated, affect the expenses incurred directly by a Fund and the value of its investments, and limit and/or preclude a Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective. Government regulation may change frequently and may have significant adverse consequences. The Funds and the investment adviser have historically been eligible for exemptions from certain regulations. However, there is no assurance that the Funds and the investment adviser will continue to be eligible for such exemptions. Actions by governmental entities may also impact certain instruments in which a Fund invests.

Moreover, government regulation may have unpredictable and unintended effects. Legislative or regulatory actions to address perceived liquidity or other issues in fixed income markets generally, or in particular markets such as the municipal securities market, may alter or impair a Fund’s ability to pursue its investment objective or utilize certain investment strategies and techniques.

Financial Highlights

The financial highlights table is intended to help a shareholder understand the financial performance of Institutional Class, I-2, I-3, Administrative Class, Class A, Class C and Class R shares of each Fund for the last five fiscal years or, if shorter, the period since a Fund or a class commenced operations. Certain information reflects financial results for a single Fund share. Because Class A shares of the PIMCO Extended Duration Fund, I-3 shares of the PIMCO Long-Term U.S. Government Fund and I-2, I-3, Administrative Class, Class A and Class C shares of the PIMCO Total Return Fund V had not commenced operations during the periods shown, financial performance information is not provided for the share classes. The total returns in the table represent the rate that an investor would have earned or lost on an investment in a particular class of shares of a Fund (assuming reinvestment of all dividends and distributions). This information has been derived from financial statements audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, whose report, along with each Fund’s financial statements, are included in Form N-CSR filed with the SEC. The financial statements are available free of charge by calling the Trust at the phone number on the back of this prospectus. The financial statements are also available for download free of charge on the Trust’s Web site at pimco.com. Note: All footnotes to the financial highlights table appear at the end of the tables.

Appendix A

Description of Securities Ratings

A Fund’s investments may range in quality from securities rated in the lowest category in which a Fund is permitted to invest to securities rated in the highest category (as rated by Moody’s, Standard & Poor’s or Fitch, or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality) to securities so rated. The percentage of a Fund’s assets invested in securities in a particular rating category will vary. The following terms are generally used to describe the credit quality of fixed income securities:

High Quality Debt Securities are those rated in one of the two highest rating categories (the highest category for commercial paper) or, if unrated, deemed comparable by PIMCO.

Investment Grade Debt Securities are those rated in one of the four highest rating categories, or, if unrated, deemed comparable by PIMCO.

Below Investment Grade High Yield Securities (“Junk Bonds”), are those rated lower than Baa by Moody’s, BBB by Standard & Poor’s or Fitch, and comparable securities. They are deemed predominantly speculative with respect to the issuer’s ability to repay principal and interest.

The following is a description of Moody’s, Standard & Poor’s and Fitch’s rating categories applicable to fixed income securities.

Moody’s Ratings

Global Long-Term Rating Scale

Ratings assigned on Moody’s global long-term rating scale are forward-looking opinions of the relative credit risks of financial obligations issued by non-financial corporates, financial institutions, structured finance vehicles, project finance vehicles, and public sector entities. Long-term ratings are assigned to issuers or obligations with an original maturity of eleven months or more and reflect both on the likelihood of a default or impairment on contractual financial obligations and the expected financial loss suffered in the event of default or impairment.

Aaa: Obligations rated Aaa are judged to be of the highest quality, subject to the lowest level of credit risk.

Aa: Obligations rated Aa are judged to be of high quality and are subject to very low credit risk.

A: Obligations rated A are judged to be upper-medium grade and are subject to low credit risk.

Baa: Obligations rated Baa are judged to be medium-grade and subject to moderate credit risk and as such may possess certain speculative characteristics.

Ba: Obligations rated Ba are judged to be speculative and are subject to substantial credit risk.

B: Obligations rated B are considered speculative and are subject to high credit risk.

Caa: Obligations rated Caa are judged to be speculative of poor standing and are subject to very high credit risk.

Ca: Obligations rated Ca are highly speculative and are likely in, or very near, default, with some prospect of recovery of principal and interest.

C: Obligations rated C are the lowest rated and are typically in default, with little prospect for recovery of principal or interest.

Moody’s appends numerical modifiers 1, 2, and 3 to each generic rating classification from Aa through Caa. The modifier 1 indicates that the obligation ranks in the higher end of its generic rating category; the modifier 2 indicates a mid-range ranking; and the modifier 3 indicates a ranking in the lower end of that generic rating category. Additionally, a “(hyb)” indicator is appended to all ratings of hybrid securities issued by banks, insurers, finance companies, and securities firms.*

* By their terms, hybrid securities allow for the omission of scheduled dividends, interest, or principal payments, which can potentially result in impairment if such an omission occurs. Hybrid securities may also be subject to contractually allowable write-downs of principal that could result in impairment. Together with the hybrid indicator, the long-term obligation rating assigned to a hybrid security is an expression of the relative credit risk associated with that security.

Medium-Term Note Program Ratings

Moody’s assigns provisional ratings to medium-term note (MTN) or similar programs and definitive ratings to the individual debt securities issued from them (referred to as drawdowns or notes).

MTN program ratings are intended to reflect the ratings likely to be assigned to drawdowns issued from the program with the specified priority of claim (e.g., senior or subordinated). To capture the contingent nature of a program rating, Moody’s assigns provisional ratings to MTN programs. A provisional rating is denoted by a (P) in front of the rating.

The rating assigned to a drawdown from a rated MTN or bank/deposit note program is definitive in nature, and may differ from the program rating if the drawdown is exposed to additional credit risks besides the issuer’s default, such as links to the defaults of other issuers, or has other structural features that warrant a different rating. In some circumstances, no rating may be assigned to a drawdown.

Moody’s encourages market participants to contact Moody’s Ratings Desks or visit moodys.com directly if they have questions regarding ratings for specific notes issued under a medium-term note program. Unrated notes issued under an MTN program may be assigned an NR (not rated) symbol.

Global Short-Term Rating Scale

Ratings assigned on Moody’s global short-term rating scale are forward-looking opinions of the relative credit risks of financial obligations issued by non-financial corporates, financial institutions, structured finance vehicles, project finance vehicles, and public sector entities. Short-term ratings are assigned to obligations with an original maturity of thirteen months or less and reflect both on the likelihood of a default or impairment on contractual financial obligations and the expected financial loss suffered in the event of default or impairment.

Moody’s employs the following designations to indicate the relative repayment ability of rated issuers:

A-1 Prospectus | PIMCO Funds

Prospectus

P-1: Ratings of Prime-1 reflect a superior ability to repay short-term obligations.

P-2: Ratings of Prime-2 reflect a strong ability to repay short-term obligations.

P-3: Ratings of Prime-3 reflect an acceptable ability to repay short-term obligations.

NP: Issuers (or supporting institutions) rated Not Prime do not fall within any of the Prime rating categories.

National Scale Long-Term Ratings

Moody’s long-term National Scale Ratings (NSRs) are opinions of the relative creditworthiness of issuers and financial obligations within a particular country. NSRs are not designed to be compared among countries; rather, they address relative credit risk within a given country. Moody’s assigns national scale ratings in certain local capital markets in which investors have found the global rating scale provides inadequate differentiation among credits or is inconsistent with a rating scale already in common use in the country.

In each specific country, the last two characters of the rating indicate the country in which the issuer is located or the financial obligation was issued (e.g., Aaa.ke for Kenya).

Aaa.n: Issuers or issues rated Aaa.n demonstrate the strongest creditworthiness relative to other domestic issuers and issuances.

Aa.n: Issuers or issues rated Aa.n demonstrate very strong creditworthiness relative to other domestic issuers and issuances.

A.n: Issuers or issues rated A.n demonstrate above-average creditworthiness relative to other domestic issuers and issuances.

Baa.n: Issuers or issues rated Baa.n demonstrate average creditworthiness relative to other domestic issuers and issuances.

Ba.n: Issuers or issues rated Ba.n demonstrate below-average creditworthiness relative to other domestic issuers and issuances.

B.n: Issuers or issues rated B.n demonstrate weak creditworthiness relative to other domestic issuers and issuances.

Caa.n: Issuers or issues rated Caa.n demonstrate very weak creditworthiness relative to other domestic issuers and issuances.

Ca.n: Issuers or issues rated Ca.n demonstrate extremely weak creditworthiness relative to other domestic issuers and issuances.

C.n: Issuers or issues rated C.n demonstrate the weakest creditworthiness relative to other domestic issuers and issuances.

National Scale Short-Term Ratings

Moody’s short-term NSRs are opinions of the ability of issuers or issuances in a given country, relative to other domestic issuers or issuances, to repay debt obligations that have an original maturity not

exceeding thirteen months. Short-term NSRs in one country should not be compared with short-term NSRs in another country, or with Moody’s global ratings. There are four categories of short-term national scale ratings, generically denoted N-1 through N-4 as defined below.

In each specific country, the first two letters indicate the country in which the issuer is located (e.g., KE-1 through KE-4 for Kenya).

N-1: N-1 issuers or issuances represent the strongest likelihood of repayment of short-term debt obligations relative to other domestic issuers or issuances.

N-2: N-2 issuers or issuances represent an above average likelihood of repayment of short-term debt obligations relative to other domestic issuers or issuances.

N-3: N-3 issuers or issuances represent an average likelihood of repayment of short-term debt obligations relative to other domestic issuers or issuances.

N-4: N-4 issuers or issuances represent a below average likelihood of repayment of short-term debt obligations relative to other domestic issuers or issuances.

The short-term rating symbols P-1.za, P-2.za, P-3.za and NP.za are used in South Africa.

Short-Term Obligation Ratings

The Municipal Investment Grade (MIG) scale is used for U.S. municipal cash flow notes, bond anticipation notes and certain other short-term obligations, which typically mature in three years or less.

MIG 1: This designation denotes superior credit quality. Excellent protection is afforded by established cash flows, highly reliable liquidity support, or demonstrated broad-based access to the market for refinancing.

MIG 2: This designation denotes strong credit quality. Margins of protection are ample, although not as large as in the preceding group.

MIG 3: This designation denotes acceptable credit quality. Liquidity and cash-flow protection may be narrow, and market access for refinancing is likely to be less well-established.

SG: This designation denotes speculative-grade credit quality. Debt instruments in this category may lack sufficient margins of protection.

Demand Obligation Ratings

For variable rate demand obligations (VRDOs), a two-component rating is assigned. Moody's assigns both a long-term rating and a short-term payment obligation rating. The long-term rating addresses the issuer’s ability to meet scheduled principal and interest payments. The short-term payment obligation rating addresses the ability of the issuer or the liquidity provider to meet any purchase price payment obligation resulting from optional tenders (“on demand”) and/or mandatory tenders of the VRDO. The short-term payment obligation rating uses the Variable Municipal Investment Grade (VMIG) scale.

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus A-2

PIMCO Funds

For VRDOs, Moody's typically assigns a VMIG rating if the frequency of the payment obligation is less than every three years. If the frequency of the payment obligation is less than three years, but the obligation is payable only with remarketing proceeds, the VMIG short-term rating is not assigned and it is denoted as “NR”.

VMIG 1: This designation denotes superior credit quality. Excellent protection is afforded by the superior short-term credit strength of the liquidity provider and structural and legal protections.

VMIG 2: This designation denotes strong credit quality. Good protection is afforded by the strong short-term credit strength of the liquidity provider and structural and legal protections.

VMIG 3: This designation denotes acceptable credit quality. Adequate protection is afforded by the satisfactory short-term credit strength of the liquidity provider and structural and legal protections.

SG: This designation denotes speculative-grade credit quality. Demand features rated in this category may be supported by a liquidity provider that does not have a sufficiently strong short-term rating or may lack the structural or legal protections.

Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services

Long-Term Issue Credit Ratings*

Issue credit ratings are based, in varying degrees, on S&P Global Ratings’ (“S&P”) analysis of the following considerations:

■

Likelihood of payment—capacity and willingness of the obligor to meet its financial commitments on an obligation in accordance with the terms of the obligation;

■

Nature and provisions of the financial obligation and the promise S&P imputes; and

■

Protection afforded by, and relative position of, the financial obligation in the event of a bankruptcy, reorganization, or other arrangement under the laws of bankruptcy and other laws affecting creditors’ rights.

Issue ratings are an assessment of default risk, but may incorporate an assessment of relative seniority or ultimate recovery in the event of default. Junior obligations are typically rated lower than senior obligations, to reflect lower priority in bankruptcy, as noted above. (Such differentiation may apply when an entity has both senior and subordinated obligations, secured and unsecured obligations, or operating company and holding company obligations.)

Investment Grade

AAA: An obligation rated ‘AAA’ has the highest rating assigned by S&P. The obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation is extremely strong.

AA: An obligation rated ‘AA’ differs from the highest-rated obligations only to a small degree. The obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation is very strong.

A: An obligation rated ‘A’ is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than obligations in higher-rated categories. However, the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation is still strong.

BBB: An obligation rated ‘BBB’ exhibits adequate protection parameters. However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to weaken the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation.

Speculative Grade

Obligations rated ‘BB’, ‘B’, ‘CCC’, ‘CC’, and ‘C’ are regarded as having significant speculative characteristics. ‘BB’ indicates the least degree of speculation and ‘C’ the highest. While such obligations will likely have some quality and protective characteristics, these may be outweighed by large uncertainties or major exposure to adverse conditions.

BB: An obligation rated ‘BB’ is less vulnerable to nonpayment than other speculative issues. However, it faces major ongoing uncertainties or exposure to adverse business, financial, or economic conditions that could lead to the obligor’s inadequate capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation.

B: An obligation rated ‘B’ is more vulnerable to nonpayment than obligations rated ‘BB’, but the obligor currently has the capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation. Adverse business, financial, or economic conditions will likely impair the obligor’s capacity or willingness to meet its financial commitments on the obligation.

CCC: An obligation rated ‘CCC’ is currently vulnerable to nonpayment, and is dependent upon favorable business, financial, and economic conditions for the obligor to meet its financial commitments on the obligation. In the event of adverse business, financial, or economic conditions, the obligor is not likely to have the capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation.

CC: An obligation rated ‘CC’ is currently highly vulnerable to nonpayment. The ‘CC’ rating is used when a default has not yet occurred, but S&P expects default to be a virtual certainty, regardless of the anticipated time to default.

C: An obligation rated ‘C’ is currently highly vulnerable to nonpayment, and the obligation is expected to have lower relative seniority or lower ultimate recovery compared with obligations that are rated higher.

D: An obligation rated ‘D’ is in default or in breach of an imputed promise. For non-hybrid capital instruments, the ‘D’ rating category is used when payments on an obligation are not made on the date due, unless S&P believes that such payments will be made within the next five business days in the absence of a stated grace period or within the earlier of the stated grace period or the next 30 calendar days. The ‘D’ rating also will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition or the taking of similar action and where default on an obligation is a virtual certainty, for example due to automatic stay provisions. A rating on an obligation is lowered to ‘D’ if it is subject to a distressed debt restructuring.

*Ratings from ‘AA’ to ‘CCC’ may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the rating categories.

A-3 Prospectus | PIMCO Funds

Short-Term Issue Credit Ratings

A-1: A short-term obligation rated ‘A-1’ is rated in the highest category by S&P. The obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation is strong. Within this category, certain obligations are designated with a plus sign (+). This indicates that the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on these obligations is extremely strong.

A-2: A short-term obligation rated ‘A-2’ is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than obligations in higher rating categories. However, the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation is satisfactory.

A-3: A short-term obligation rated ‘A-3’ exhibits adequate protection parameters. However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to weaken an obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation.

B: A short-term obligation rated ‘B’ is regarded as vulnerable and has significant speculative characteristics. The obligor currently has the capacity to meet its financial commitments; however, it faces major ongoing uncertainties that could lead to the obligor’s inadequate capacity to meet its financial commitments.

C: A short-term obligation rated ‘C’ is currently vulnerable to nonpayment and is dependent upon favorable business, financial, and economic conditions for the obligor to meet its financial commitments on the obligation.

D: A short-term obligation rated ‘D’ is in default or in breach of an imputed promise. For non-hybrid capital instruments, the ‘D’ rating category is used when payments on an obligation are not made on the date due, unless S&P believes that such payments will be made within any stated grace period. However, any stated grace period longer than five business days will be treated as five business days. The ‘D’ rating also will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition or the taking of a similar action and where default on an obligation is a virtual certainty, for example due to automatic stay provisions. A rating on an obligation is lowered to ‘D’ if it is subject to a distressed debt restructuring.

Dual Ratings: Dual ratings may be assigned to debt issues that have a put option or demand feature. The first component of the rating addresses the likelihood of repayment of principal and interest as due, and the second component of the rating addresses only the demand feature. The first component of the rating can relate to either a short-term or long-term transaction and accordingly use either short-term or long-term rating symbols. The second component of the rating relates to the put option and is assigned a short-term rating symbol (for example, ‘AAA/A-1+‘ or ‘A-1+/ A-1’). With U.S. municipal short-term demand debt, the U.S. municipal short-term note rating symbols are used for the first component of the rating (for example, ‘SP-1+/A-1+‘).

Active Qualifiers

S&P uses the following qualifiers that limit the scope of a rating. The structure of the transaction can require the use of a qualifier such as a ‘p’ qualifier, which indicates the rating addresses the principal portion of the obligation only. A qualifier appears as a suffix and is part of the rating.

L: Ratings qualified with ‘L’ apply only to amounts invested up to federal deposit insurance limits.

p: This suffix is used for issues in which the credit factors, the terms, or both, that determine the likelihood of receipt of payment of principal are different from the credit factors, terms or both that determine the likelihood of receipt of interest on the obligation. The ‘p’ suffix indicates that the rating addresses the principal portion of the obligation only and that the interest is not rated.

prelim: Preliminary ratings, with the ‘prelim’ suffix, may be assigned to obligors or obligations, including financial programs, in the circumstances described below. Assignment of a final rating is conditional on the receipt by S&P of appropriate documentation. S&P reserves the right not to issue a final rating. Moreover, if a final rating is issued, it may differ from the preliminary rating.

■

Preliminary ratings may be assigned to obligations, most commonly structured and project finance issues, pending receipt of final documentation and legal opinions.

■

Preliminary ratings may be assigned to obligations that will likely be issued upon the obligor’s emergence from bankruptcy or similar reorganization, based on late-stage reorganization plans, documentation, and discussions with the obligor. Preliminary ratings may also be assigned to the obligors. These ratings consider the anticipated general credit quality of the reorganized or post-bankruptcy issuer as well as attributes of the anticipated obligation(s).

■

Preliminary ratings may be assigned to entities that are being formed or that are in the process of being independently established when, in S&P’s opinion, documentation is close to final. Preliminary ratings may also be assigned to the obligations of these entities.

■

Preliminary ratings may be assigned when a previously unrated entity is undergoing a well-formulated restructuring, recapitalization, significant financing or other transformative event, generally at the point that investor or lender commitments are invited. The preliminary rating may be assigned to the entity and to its proposed obligation(s). These preliminary ratings consider the anticipated general credit quality of the obligor, as well as attributes of the anticipated obligation(s), assuming successful completion of the transformative event. Should the transformative event not occur, S&P would likely withdraw these preliminary ratings.

■

A preliminary recovery rating may be assigned to an obligation that has a preliminary issue credit rating.

t: This symbol indicates termination structures that are designed to honor their contracts to full maturity or, should certain events occur, to terminate and cash settle all their contracts before their final maturity date.

cir: This symbol indicates a Counterparty Instrument Rating (CIR), which is a forward-looking opinion about the creditworthiness of an issuer in a securitization structure with respect to a specific financial obligation to a counterparty (including interest rate swaps, currency swaps, and liquidity facilities). The CIR is determined on an ultimate payment basis; these opinions do not take into account timeliness of payment.

Inactive Qualifiers (no longer applied or outstanding)

*: This symbol indicated that the rating was contingent upon S&P receipt of an executed copy of the escrow agreement or closing documentation confirming investments and cash flows. Discontinued use in August 1998.

c: This qualifier was used to provide additional information to investors that the bank may terminate its obligation to purchase tendered bonds if the long-term credit rating of the issuer was lowered to below an investment-grade level and/or the issuer’s bonds were deemed taxable. Discontinued use in January 2001.

G: The letter ‘G’ followed the rating symbol when a fund’s portfolio consisted primarily of direct U.S. government securities.

i: This suffix was used for issues in which the credit factors, terms, or both that determine the likelihood of receipt of payment of interest are different from the credit factors, terms, or both that determine the likelihood of receipt of principal on the obligation. The 'i' suffix indicated that the rating addressed the interest portion of the obligation only. The 'i' suffix was always used in conjunction with the 'p' suffix, which addresses likelihood of receipt of principal. For example, a rated obligation could have been assigned a rating of 'AAApNRi' indicating that the principal portion was rated 'AAA' and the interest portion of the obligation was not rated.

pi: This qualifier was used to indicate ratings that were based on an analysis of an issuer’s published financial information, as well as additional information in the public domain. Such ratings did not, however, reflect in-depth meetings with an issuer’s management and therefore, could have been based on less comprehensive information than ratings without a ‘pi’ suffix. Discontinued use as of December 2014 and as of August 2015 for Lloyd’s Syndicate Assessments.

pr: The letters ‘pr’ indicate that the rating was provisional. A provisional rating assumed the successful completion of a project financed by the debt being rated and indicates that payment of debt service requirements was largely or entirely dependent upon the successful, timely completion of the project. This rating, however, while addressing credit quality subsequent to completion of the project, made no comment on the likelihood of or the risk of default upon failure of such completion.

q: A ‘q’ subscript indicates that the rating is based solely on quantitative analysis of publicly available information. Discontinued use in April 2001.

r: The ‘r’ modifier was assigned to securities containing extraordinary risks, particularly market risks, that are not covered in the credit rating. The absence of an ‘r’ modifier should not be taken as an indication that an obligation would not exhibit extraordinary noncredit-related risks. S&P discontinued the use of the ‘r’ modifier for most obligations in June 2000 and for the balance of obligations (mainly structured finance transactions) in November 2002.

Fitch Ratings

Long-Term Credit Ratings
Investment Grade

Rated entities in a number of sectors, including financial and non-financial corporations, sovereigns, insurance companies and certain sectors within public finance, are generally assigned Issuer Default Ratings (“IDRs”). IDRs are also assigned to certain entities or enterprises in global infrastructure, project finance and public finance. IDRs opine on an entity’s relative vulnerability to default (including by way of a distressed debt exchange) on financial obligations. The threshold default risk addressed by the IDR is generally that of the financial obligations whose non-payment would best reflect the uncured failure of that entity. As such, IDRs also address relative vulnerability to bankruptcy, administrative receivership or similar concepts.

In aggregate, IDRs provide an ordinal ranking of issuers based on the agency’s view of their relative vulnerability to default, rather than a prediction of a specific percentage likelihood of default.

AAA: Highest credit quality. ‘AAA’ ratings denote the lowest expectation of default risk. They are assigned only in cases of exceptionally strong capacity for payment of financial commitments. This capacity is highly unlikely to be adversely affected by foreseeable events.

AA: Very high credit quality. ‘AA’ ratings denote expectations of very low default risk. They indicate very strong capacity for payment of financial commitments. This capacity is not significantly vulnerable to foreseeable events.

A: High credit quality. ‘A’ ratings denote expectations of low default risk. The capacity for payment of financial commitments is considered strong. This capacity may, nevertheless, be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic conditions than is the case for higher ratings.

BBB: Good credit quality. ‘BBB’ ratings indicate that expectations of default risk are currently low. The capacity for payment of financial commitments is considered adequate, but adverse business or economic conditions are more likely to impair this capacity.

Speculative Grade

BB: Speculative. ‘BB’ ratings indicate an elevated vulnerability to default risk, particularly in the event of adverse changes in business or economic conditions over time; however, business or financial flexibility exists that supports the servicing of financial commitments.

A-5 Prospectus | PIMCO Funds

Prospectus

B: Highly speculative. ‘B’ ratings indicate that material default risk is present, but a limited margin of safety remains. Financial commitments are currently being met; however, capacity for continued payment is vulnerable to deterioration in the business and economic environment.

CCC: Substantial credit risk. Very low margin for safety. Default is a real possibility.

CC: Very high levels of credit risk. Default of some kind appears probable.

C: Near default.

A default or default-like process has begun, or for a closed funding vehicle, payment capacity is irrevocably impaired. Conditions that are indicative of a ‘C’ category rating for an issuer include:

a. the issuer has entered into a grace or cure period following non-payment of a material financial obligation;

b. the formal announcement by the issuer or their agent of a distressed debt exchange;

c. a closed financing vehicle where payment capacity is irrevocably impaired such that it is not expected to pay interest and/or principal in full during the life of the transaction, but where no payment default is imminent.

RD: Restricted default. ‘RD’ ratings indicate an issuer that in Fitch’s opinion has experienced an uncured payment default or distressed debt exchange on a bond, loan or other material financial obligation but has not entered into bankruptcy filings, administration, receivership, liquidation or other formal winding-up procedure, and has not otherwise ceased operating. This would include:

i. the selective payment default on a specific class or currency of debt;

ii. the uncured expiry of any applicable original grace period, cure period or default forbearance period following a payment default on a bank loan, capital markets security or other material financial obligation.

D: Default. ‘D’ ratings indicate an issuer that in Fitch’s opinion has entered into bankruptcy filings, administration, receivership, liquidation or other formal winding-up procedure or that has otherwise ceased business and debt is still outstanding. Default ratings are not assigned prospectively to entities or their obligations; within this context, non-payment on an instrument that contains a deferral feature or grace period will generally not be considered a default until after the expiration of the deferral or grace period, unless a default is otherwise driven by bankruptcy or other similar circumstance, or by a distressed debt exchange.

In all cases, the assignment of a default rating reflects the agency’s opinion as to the most appropriate rating category consistent with the rest of its universe of ratings, and may differ from the definition of default under the terms of an issuer’s financial obligations or local commercial practice.

The modifiers “+” or “-” may be appended to a rating to denote relative status within major rating categories. For example, the rating category ‘AA’ has three notch-specific rating levels (’AA+‘; ’AA’; ‘AA-’; each a rating level). Such suffixes are not added to ‘AAA’ ratings and ratings below the ‘CCC’ category.

Recovery Ratings

Recovery Ratings are assigned to selected individual securities and obligations, most frequently for individual obligations of corporate finance issuers with IDRs in speculative grade categories.

Among the factors that affect recovery rates for securities are the collateral, the seniority relative to other obligations in the capital structure (where appropriate), and the expected value of the company or underlying collateral in distress.

The Recovery Rating scale is based on the expected relative recovery characteristics of an obligation upon the curing of a default, emergence from insolvency or following the liquidation or termination of the obligor or its associated collateral.

Recovery Ratings are an ordinal scale and do not attempt to precisely predict a given level of recovery. As a guideline in developing the rating assessments, the agency employs broad theoretical recovery bands in its ratings approach based on historical averages and analytical judgment, but actual recoveries for a given security may deviate materially from historical averages.

RR1: Outstanding recovery prospects given default. ‘RR1’ rated securities have characteristics consistent with securities historically recovering 91%-100% of current principal and related interest.

RR2: Superior recovery prospects given default. ‘RR2’ rated securities have characteristics consistent with securities historically recovering 71%-90% of current principal and related interest.

RR3: Good recovery prospects given default. ‘RR3’ rated securities have characteristics consistent with securities historically recovering 51%-70% of current principal and related interest.

RR4: Average recovery prospects given default. ‘RR4’ rated securities have characteristics consistent with securities historically recovering 31%-50% of current principal and related interest.

RR5: Below average recovery prospects given default. ‘RR5’ rated securities have characteristics consistent with securities historically recovering 11%-30% of current principal and related interest.

RR6: Poor recovery prospects given default. ‘RR6’ rated securities have characteristics consistent with securities historically recovering 0%-10% of current principal and related interest.

Short-Term Credit Ratings

A short-term issuer or obligation rating is based in all cases on the short-term vulnerability to default of the rated entity and relates to the capacity to meet financial obligations in accordance with the documentation governing the relevant obligation. Short-term deposit ratings may be adjusted for loss severity. Short-Term Ratings are assigned to obligations whose initial maturity is viewed as “short term” based on market convention (a long-term rating can also be used to rate

PIMCO Funds

an issue with short maturity). Typically, this means a timeframe of up to 13 months for corporate, sovereign, and structured obligations, and up to 36 months for obligations in U.S. public finance markets.

F1: Highest short-term credit quality. Indicates the strongest intrinsic capacity for timely payment of financial commitments; may have an added “+” to denote any exceptionally strong credit feature.

F2: Good short-term credit quality. Good intrinsic capacity for timely payment of financial commitments.

F3: Fair short-term credit quality. The intrinsic capacity for timely payment of financial commitments is adequate.

B: Speculative short-term credit quality. Minimal capacity for timely payment of financial commitments, plus heightened vulnerability to near term adverse changes in financial and economic conditions.

C: High short-term default risk. Default is a real possibility.

RD: Restricted default. Indicates an entity that has defaulted on one or more of its financial commitments, although it continues to meet other financial obligations. Typically applicable to entity ratings only.

D: Default. Indicates a broad-based default event for an entity, or the default of a short-term obligation.

For the short-term rating category of ‘F1’, a ‘+’ may be appended. For VRs, the modifiers “+” or “–” may be appended to a rating to denote relative status within categories from ‘aa’ to ‘ccc’. For Derivative Counterparty Ratings, the modifiers “+” or “–” may be appended to the ratings within ‘AA(dcr)’ to ‘CCC(dcr)’ categories.

Rights of accumulation which entitle shareholders to breakpoint discounts will be automatically calculated based on the aggregated holding of fund family assets held by accounts within the

purchaser’s household at Raymond James. Eligible fund family assets not held at Raymond James may be included in the calculation of rights of accumulation only if the shareholder notifies his or

her financial advisor about such assets.

Edward Jones can ask for documentation of such circumstance. Shareholders should contact Edward Jones if they have questions regarding their eligibility for these discounts and waivers.

Breakpoints

Breakpoint pricing, otherwise known as volume pricing, at dollar thresholds as described in the prospectus.

Rights of Accumulation (“ROA”)

The applicable sales charge on a purchase of Class A shares is determined by taking into account all share classes (except certain money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans)

of the PIMCO family of funds held by the shareholder or in an account grouped by Edward Jones with other accounts for the purpose of providing certain pricing considerations (“pricing groups”). If

grouping assets as a shareholder, this includes all share classes held on the Edward Jones platform and/or held on another platform. The inclusion of eligible fund family assets in the ROA calculation

is dependent on the shareholder notifying Edward Jones of such assets at the time of calculation. Money market funds are included only if such shares were sold with a sales charge at the time of

purchase or acquired in exchange for shares purchased with a sales charge.

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus B-3

PIMCO Funds

The employer maintaining a SEP IRA plan and/or SIMPLE IRA plan may elect to establish or change ROA for the IRA accounts associated with the plan to a plan-level grouping as opposed to

including all share classes at a shareholder or pricing group level.

ROA is determined by calculating the higher of cost minus redemptions or market value (current shares x NAV).

Letter of Intent (“LOI”)

Through a LOI, shareholders can receive the sales charge and breakpoint discounts for purchases shareholders intend to make over a 13-month period from the date Edward Jones receives the LOI.

The LOI is determined by calculating the higher of cost or market value of qualifying holdings at LOI initiation in combination with the value that the shareholder intends to buy over a 13-month

period to calculate the front-end sales charge and any breakpoint discounts. Each purchase the shareholder makes during that 13-month period will receive the sales charge and breakpoint discount

that applies to the total amount. The inclusion of eligible fund family assets in the LOI calculation is dependent on the shareholder notifying Edward Jones of such assets at the time of calculation.

Purchases made before the LOI is received by Edward Jones are not adjusted under the LOI and will not reduce the sales charge previously paid. Sales charges will be adjusted if LOI is not met.

If the employer maintaining a SEP IRA plan and/or SIMPLE IRA plan has elected to establish or change ROA for the IRA accounts associated with the plan to a plan-level grouping, LOIs will also be

at the plan-level and may only be established by the employer.

Sales Charge Waivers

Sales charges are waived for the following shareholders and in the following situations:

Associates of Edward Jones and its affiliates and other accounts in the same pricing group (as determined by Edward Jones under its policies and procedures) as the associate. This waiver will

Shares purchased in an Edward Jones fee-based program.

Shares purchased through reinvestment of capital gains distributions and dividend reinvestment.

(i) The redemption and repurchase occur in the same account.

(ii) The redemption proceeds are used to process an: IRA contribution, excess contributions, conversion, recharacterizing of contributions, or distribution, and the repurchase is done in an account

within the same Edward Jones grouping for ROA.

The Right of Reinstatement excludes systematic or automatic transactions including, but not limited to, purchases made through payroll deductions, liquidations to cover account fees, and

reinvestments from non-mutual fund products.

Shares exchanged into Class A shares from another share class so long as the exchange is into the same fund and was initiated at the discretion of Edward Jones. Edward Jones is responsible for any

remaining CDSC due to the fund company, if applicable. Any future purchases are subject to the applicable sales charge as disclosed in the prospectus.

Exchanges from Class C shares to Class A shares of the same fund, generally, in the 84th month following the anniversary of the purchase date or earlier at the discretion of Edward Jones.

responsible to pay the CDSC except in the following conditions:

The death or disability of the shareholder.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective under normal circumstances by obtaining long exposure to a portfolio of stocks (“RAE US Large Model Portfolio”) and short exposure to the S&P 500 Index (“S&P 500”), and complementing this equity market neutral exposure with absolute return bond alpha strategy (“AR Bond Alpha Strategy”). The RAE US Large Model Portfolio stocks are selected by the Fund’s sub-adviser, Research Affiliates (“Sub-Adviser”), from a broad universe of companies which satisfy certain liquidity and capacity requirements. Under normal circumstances equity total return swaps are used to obtain exposure to the RAE US Large Model Portfolio and short positions in swaps and futures are used to obtain exposure to the S&P 500. The Fund’s strategy of maintaining long exposure to the RAE US Large Model Portfolio and short exposure to the S&P 500 can be characterized as “market neutral” because the long and the short exposures are intended to offset one another producing a net equity exposure that is approximately zero. At the same time, the Fund is designed to deliver the relative appreciation (or depreciation) of the RAE US Large Model Portfolio over the S&P 500.

The Fund typically will seek to simultaneously gain long exposure to RAE US Large Model Portfolio and short exposure to the S&P 500, each in an amount, under normal circumstances, approximately equal to the Fund’s net assets. The Sub-Adviser provides investment advisory services in connection with the Fund’s swap-based exposure to the RAE US Large Model Portfolio by, among other things, providing PIMCO, or

PIMCO Funds | Prospectus 1

PIMCO RAE Fundamental Advantage PLUS Fund

counterparties designated by PIMCO, with the RAE US Large Model Portfolio for purposes of developing equity total return swaps based on the RAE US Large Model Portfolio. In a typical swap agreement, the Fund will receive the total return of the RAE US Large Model Portfolio from the counterparty to the swap agreement in exchange for paying the counterparty an agreed upon short term interest rate. The Fund will typically invest in short S&P 500 futures and/or total return swaps that provide the inverse of the total return of the S&P 500 index plus a short term interest rate.

Because the RAE US Large Model Portfolio is a proprietary portfolio, there may be a limited number of counterparties willing or able to serve as counterparties to a swap agreement. If such swap agreements are not available, or if swap pricing is unattractive or for other reasons, the Fund may invest in other instruments, “baskets” of stocks, or individual securities to replicate the performance of the RAE US Large Model Portfolio relative to the S&P 500.

The Fund seeks to maintain long exposure to the RAE US Large Model Portfolio and short exposure to the S&P 500 even when the value of the RAE US Large Model Portfolio is underperforming relative to the S&P 500.

In managing the Fund’s investments in the AR Bond Alpha Strategy, PIMCO seeks to outperform any residual net cost of obtaining long exposure to the RAE US Large Model Portfolio and short exposure to the S&P 500, thereby enhancing the Fund’s total return and return versus the benchmark (sometimes referred to as “alpha”). The AR Bond Alpha Strategy invests in a diversified portfolio of Fixed Income Instruments, which may be represented by forwards or derivatives such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements. “Fixed Income Instruments” include bonds, debt securities and other similar instruments issued by various U.S. and non-U.S. public or private-sector entities. The AR Bond Alpha Strategy is not designed to systematically provide bond market exposure, although the returns may (or may not) be positively correlated with the returns of the bond market.

The AR Bond Alpha Strategy seeks to maintain an overall portfolio duration which normally varies from (negative) 3 years to positive 8 years based on PIMCO’s market forecasts among other factors. Duration is a measure used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates. The longer a security’s duration, the more sensitive it will be to changes in interest rates. In addition to duration, the AR Bond Alpha Strategy has flexibility with respect to overall sector exposures, non-U.S. exposures and credit quality, both as a function of the strategy’s investment guidelines and lack of a bond market index benchmark.

Services (“S&P”) or Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”), or, if unrated, as determined by PIMCO. In the event that ratings services assign different ratings to the same security, PIMCO will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security. The Fund may also invest, without limitation, in securities denominated in foreign currencies and in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers. With respect to the AR Bond Alpha Strategy, the Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries (this limitation does not apply to investment grade sovereign debt denominated in the local currency with less than 1 year remaining to maturity, which means the Fund may invest in such instruments without limitation subject to any applicable legal or regulatory limitation). The Fund will normally limit its net foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 35% of its total assets. The Fund will normally limit its exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to each non-U.S. currency to 10% of its total assets. The Fund will normally limit its aggregate U.S. dollar exposure from transactions or instruments that reference the relative return of a non-U.S. currency or currencies as compared to the U.S. dollar to 20% of its total assets. The Fund may also invest up to 10% of its total assets in preferred securities.

Principal Risks

It is possible to lose money on an investment in the Fund. In addition, under certain conditions, generally in a market where RAE US Large Model Portfolio underperforms relative to the S&P 500 and/or where the AR Bond Alpha Strategy underperforms short-term interest rates, the Fund may experience greater losses or lesser gains than would be the case if it invested directly in securities designed to replicate the benchmark. The principal risks of investing in the Fund, which could adversely affect its net asset value, yield and total return, are:

Interest Rate Risk: the risk that fixed income securities and dividend-paying equity securities will fluctuate in value because of a change in interest rates; a fund with a longer average portfolio duration will be more sensitive to changes in interest rates than a fund with a shorter average portfolio duration. Factors such as government policy, inflation, the economy, and market for bonds can impact interest rates and yields

Market Risk: the risk that the value of securities owned by the Fund may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to factors affecting securities markets generally or particular industries

value of derivatives or other similar investments and the Fund’s performance

Emerging Markets Risk: the risk of investing in emerging market securities, primarily increased foreign (non-U.S.) investment risk

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus 3

PIMCO RAE Fundamental Advantage PLUS Fund

heightened risk of loss. The use of leverage may also increase the Fund’s sensitivity to interest rate risks

Management Risk: the risk that the investment techniques and risk analyses applied by PIMCO and Research Affiliates, including the use of quantitative models or methods, will not produce the desired results and that actual or potential conflicts of interest, legislative, regulatory or tax restrictions, policies or developments may affect the investment techniques available to PIMCO or Research Affiliates and the individual portfolio managers in connection with managing the Fund and may cause PIMCO or Research Affiliates to restrict or prohibit participation in certain investments. There is no guarantee that the investment objective of the Fund will be achieved

Model Risk: the risk that the Fund’s investment models used in making investment allocation decisions may not adequately take into account certain factors, or may contain design flaws or faulty assumptions, and may rely on incomplete or inaccurate data inputs, any of which may result in a decline in the value of an investment in the Fund. The performance of the investment models may be impacted by software or other technology malfunctions, human error, programming inaccuracies, power loss, and other events or circumstances, which may be difficult to detect and may be beyond the control of the Fund

Value Investing Risk: a value stock may decrease in price or may not increase in price as anticipated by the Sub-Adviser if it continues to be undervalued by the market or the factors that the portfolio manager believes will cause the stock price to increase do not occur

Turnover Risk: the risk that high levels of portfolio turnover may increase transaction costs and taxes and may lower investment performance

Performance Information

In addition to the Fund’s performance, the Average Annual Total Returns table includes performance of: (i) a broad-based securities market index (i.e., a regulatory index) and (ii) a supplemental index. It is not possible to invest directly in an unmanaged index. The Fund’s regulatory index is the S&P 500 Index. The Fund’s regulatory index is shown in connection with certain regulatory requirements to provide a broad measure of market performance. The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged market index generally considered representative of the stock market as a whole. The S&P 500 Index is comprised of 500 selected common stocks that represent approximately two thirds of the total market value of all U.S. common stocks. The S&P 500 Index focuses on the large-cap segment of the U.S. equities market. The supplemental index shown is the ICE BofA SOFR Overnight Rate Index. The ICE BofA SOFR Overnight Rate Index tracks the performance of a synthetic asset paying SOFR to a stated maturity. The index is based on the assumed purchase at par of a synthetic instrument having exactly its stated maturity and with a coupon equal to that day's fixing rate. That issue is assumed to be sold the following business day (priced at a yield equal to the current day fixing rate) and rolled into a new instrument. SOFR (Secured Overnight Funding Rate) is an overnight rate (published in arrears) and was chosen by the Alternative Reference Rates Committee (“ARRC”) as the successor to the USD LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate). SOFR is secured (collateralized by Treasuries), calculated by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, and transactions based.

The Fund seeks to exceed the total return of the Russell 1000® Value Index under normal circumstances by obtaining exposure to a portfolio of stocks of U.S. companies (“RAE US Large Model Portfolio”), and complementing this equity exposure with absolute return bond alpha strategy (“AR Bond Alpha Strategy”). The stocks are selected by the Fund’s sub-adviser, Research Affiliates (“Sub-Adviser”), from a broad universe of companies which satisfy certain liquidity and capacity requirements. Under normal circumstances equity total return swaps are used to obtain exposure to the RAE US Large Model Portfolio.

The Sub-Adviser provides investment advisory services in connection with the Fund’s swap-based exposure to the RAE US Large Model Portfolio by, among other things, providing PIMCO, or counterparties designated by PIMCO, with the RAE US Large Model Portfolio for purposes of developing equity total return swaps based on the RAE US Large Model Portfolio. In a typical swap agreement, the Fund will receive the total return of the RAE US Large Model Portfolio from the counterparty to the swap agreement in exchange for paying the counterparty an agreed upon short-term interest rate.

The Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in high yield securities (“junk bonds”), as rated by Moody’s Ratings (“Moody’s”), Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) or Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”), or, if unrated, as determined by PIMCO. In the event that ratings services assign different ratings to the same security, PIMCO will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security. The Fund may invest, without limitation, in securities denominated in foreign currencies and in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries (this limitation does not apply to investment grade sovereign debt denominated in the local currency with less than 1 year remaining to maturity, which means the Fund may invest in such instruments without limitation subject to any applicable legal or regulatory limitation). The Fund will normally limit its net foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 35% of its total assets. The Fund will normally limit its exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to each non-U.S. currency to 10% of its total assets. The Fund will normally limit its aggregate U.S. dollar exposure from transactions or instruments that reference the relative return of a non-U.S. currency or currencies as compared to the U.S. dollar to 20% of its total assets. The Fund may also invest up to 10% of its total assets in preferred securities.

Principal Risks

It is possible to lose money on an investment in the Fund. Under certain conditions, generally in a market where the value of the RAE US Large Model Portfolio underperforms the benchmark and/or the AR Bond Alpha Strategy underperforms short term interest rates, the Fund may experience greater losses or lesser gains than would be the case if it invested in the benchmark. The principal risks of investing in the Fund, which could adversely affect its net asset value, yield and total return, are:

Portfolio Turnover

Principal Investment Strategies

The Fund seeks to exceed the total return of the Russell 2000® Value Index under normal circumstances by obtaining exposure to a portfolio of stocks of U.S. small companies (“RAE US Small Model Portfolio”), and complementing this equity exposure with absolute return bond alpha strategy (“AR Bond Alpha Strategy”). The stocks are selected by the Fund’s sub-adviser, Research Affiliates (“Sub-Adviser”), from a broad universe of companies which satisfy certain liquidity and capacity requirements. Under normal circumstances equity total return swaps are used to obtain exposure to the RAE US Small Model Portfolio.

The Sub-Adviser uses the RAE® methodology for portfolio construction. The RAE® methodology is a rules-based model that selects stocks using quantitative signals that indicate higher expected returns, e.g., value, quality, and momentum. The model then weights selected stocks by using their fundamental measures of company size, e.g., sales, cash flow, dividends and book value. The Sub-Adviser applies the RAE® methodology to small U.S. companies as determined by cumulative fundamental measures of company size for the RAE US Small Model Portfolio. The fundamental weights of U.S. companies are sorted in descending order where the top cumulative 86% weights are eligible as large and mid-sized companies and the remaining companies are eligible as small-sized companies. Actual stock positions in the RAE US Small Model Portfolio, which drift apart from target weights as market prices change, are rebalanced to target weights periodically. The RAE® methodology’s systematic portfolio rebalancing reflects a value orientation. Portfolio managers do not have discretion with respect to the allocations determined by the RAE® methodology. The RAE® methodology is not updated according to any predetermined schedule.

Performance Information

In addition to the Fund’s performance, the Average Annual Total Returns table includes performance of: (i) a broad-based securities market index (i.e., a regulatory index) and (ii) two supplemental indexes. It is not possible to invest directly in an unmanaged index. The Fund’s regulatory index is the S&P 500 Index. The Fund’s regulatory index is shown in connection with certain regulatory requirements to provide a broad measure of market performance. The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged market index generally considered representative of the stock market as a whole. The S&P 500 Index is composed of 500 selected common stocks that represent approximately two thirds of the total market value of all U.S. common stocks. The S&P 500 Index focuses on the large-cap segment of the U.S. equities market. The Russell 2000® Value Index is a supplemental index of the Fund. The Russell 2000® Value Index measures the performance of the small-capitalization value sector of the U.S. equity market, as defined by FTSE Russell. The Russell 2000® Value Index is a subset of the Russell 2000® Index. The Russell 2000® Index is also a supplemental index of the Fund.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective under normal circumstances by obtaining long exposure to three separate stock portfolios representing developed and developing markets, short exposure to corresponding capitalization-weighted equity indexes, and complementing this equity exposure with absolute return bond alpha strategy (“AR Bond Alpha Strategy”). The Fund normally will obtain long exposure to the RAE Low Volatility US Model Portfolio, RAE Low Volatility International Model Portfolio and the RAE Low Volatility Emerging Markets Model Portfolio (each, a “RAE Model Portfolio,” and collectively, the “RAE Model Portfolios”). The stocks comprising the RAE Model Portfolios are selected by the Fund’s sub-adviser, Research Affiliates (“Sub-Adviser”), from a broad universe of companies which satisfy certain liquidity and capacity requirements. Under normal circumstances equity total return swaps are used to obtain exposure to the RAE Model Portfolios and short positions in swaps and futures are used to obtain exposure to capitalization-weighted indexes.

The Sub-Adviser uses the RAE® Low Volatility methodology for portfolio construction. The RAE® methodology is a rules-based model that selects stocks using quantitative signals that indicate higher expected returns, e.g., low volatility, quality, and momentum. The model then weights selected stocks by using their fundamental measures of company size, e.g., sales, cash flow, dividends and book value. Actual stock positions in the RAE Model Portfolios, which drift apart from target weights as market prices change, are rebalanced to target weights periodically. The RAE® methodology’s systematic portfolio rebalancing reflects a value orientation. Portfolio managers do not have

discretion with respect to the allocations determined by the RAE® methodology. The RAE® methodology is not updated according to any predetermined schedule.

The Sub-Adviser provides investment advisory services in connection with the Fund’s swap-based exposure to the RAE Model Portfolios by, among other things, providing PIMCO, or counterparties designated by PIMCO, with the relevant RAE Model Portfolio for purposes of developing equity total return swaps based on that RAE Model Portfolio. In a typical swap agreement, the Fund will receive the total return of the relevant RAE Model Portfolio from the counterparty to the swap agreement in exchange for paying the counterparty an agreed upon short-term interest rate.

Because the RAE Model Portfolios are proprietary portfolios, there may be a limited number of counterparties willing or able to serve as counterparties to a swap agreement. If such swap agreements are not available, or if swap pricing is unattractive or for other reasons, the Fund may invest in other instruments, “baskets” of stocks, or individual securities to replicate the performance of the relevant RAE Model Portfolio.

The Fund seeks to remain exposed to the RAE Model Portfolios even when the values of the RAE Model Portfolios are declining.

The Fund will generally obtain short exposure to corresponding U.S., international and emerging market capitalization-weighted equity indexes through derivatives, such as futures contracts and total return swaps. This “long/short” approach is intended to hedge a portion to all of the equity risk exposures and to seek to capitalize on differences in performance of the RAE Model Portfolios compared with the corresponding capitalization-weighted equity indexes. The Fund generally will be long-biased, but will normally take such long and short positions simultaneously in a proportion determined by PIMCO using methods including proprietary quantitative models. The quantitative models are developed and maintained by PIMCO, and are subject to change over time without notice in PIMCO’s discretion.

In managing the Fund’s investments in the AR Bond Alpha Strategy, PIMCO seeks to outperform the cost of obtaining equity exposures, thereby enhancing the Fund’s total return and return versus the benchmark (sometimes referred to as “alpha”). The AR Bond Alpha Strategy invests in a diversified portfolio of Fixed Income Instruments, which may be represented by forwards or derivatives such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements. “Fixed Income Instruments” include bonds, debt securities and other similar instruments issued by various U.S. and non-U.S. public or private-sector entities. The AR Bond Alpha Strategy is not designed to systematically provide bond market exposure, although the returns may (or may not) be positively correlated with the returns of the bond market.

duration, the AR Bond Alpha Strategy has flexibility with respect to overall sector exposures, non-U.S. exposures and credit quality, both as a function of the strategy’s investment guidelines and lack of a bond market index benchmark.

The Fund may invest, without limitation, in common stocks and derivative instruments, such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements, or in mortgage- or asset-backed securities, subject to applicable law and any other restrictions described in the Fund’s prospectus or Statement of Additional Information. The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment basis and may engage in short sales. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in high yield securities (“junk bonds”), as rated by Moody’s Ratings (“Moody’s”), Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) or Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”), or, if unrated, as determined by PIMCO. In the event that ratings services assign different ratings to the same security, PIMCO will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security. The Fund may invest, without limitation, in securities denominated in foreign (non-U.S.) currencies and in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign (non-U.S.) issuers. With respect to the AR Bond Alpha Strategy, the Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries (this limitation does not apply to investment grade sovereign debt denominated in the local currency with less than 1 year remaining to maturity, which means the Fund may invest in such instruments without limitation subject to any applicable legal or regulatory limitation). With respect to the AR Bond Alpha Strategy, the Fund will normally limit its net foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 35% of its total assets. With respect to the AR Bond Alpha Strategy, the Fund will normally limit its exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to each non-U.S. currency to 10% of its total assets. With respect to the AR Bond Alpha Strategy, the Fund will normally limit its aggregate U.S. dollar exposure from transactions or instruments that reference the relative return of a non-U.S. currency or currencies as compared to the U.S. dollar to 20% of its total assets. The Fund may also invest up to 10% of its total assets in preferred securities. The Fund will invest in instruments that are economically tied to at least three countries (one of which may be the United States).

Principal Risks

It is possible to lose money on an investment in the Fund. Under certain conditions, generally in a market where the RAE Model Portfolios underperform the corresponding capitalization weighted indexes and/or where the AR Bond Alpha Strategy underperforms short-term interest rates, the Fund may experience greater losses or lesser gains than would be the case if it invested directly in securities designed to replicate the benchmark. The principal risks of investing in the Fund, which could adversely affect its net asset value, yield and total return, are:

PIMCO RAE Worldwide Long/Short PLUS Fund

shorter average portfolio duration. Factors such as government policy, inflation, the economy, and market for bonds can impact interest rates and yields

Changes in the value of a derivative or other similar instrument may also create margin delivery or settlement payment obligations for the Fund. The Fund’s use of derivatives or other similar investments may result in losses to the Fund, a reduction in the Fund’s returns and/or increased volatility. Non-centrally-cleared over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivatives or other similar investments are also subject to the risk that a counterparty to the transaction will not fulfill its contractual obligations to the other party, as many of the protections afforded to centrally-cleared derivative transactions might not be available for non-centrally cleared OTC derivatives or other similar investments. The primary credit risk on derivatives or other similar investments that are exchange-traded or traded through a central clearing counterparty resides with the Fund's clearing broker or the clearinghouse. Changes in regulation relating to a registered fund’s use of derivatives and related instruments could potentially limit or impact the Fund’s ability to invest in derivatives, limit the Fund’s ability to employ certain strategies that use derivatives or other similar investments and/or adversely affect the value of derivatives or other similar investments and the Fund’s performance

Performance Information

The performance information shows summary performance information for the Fund in a bar chart and an Average Annual Total Returns table. The information provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing changes in its performance from year to year and by showing how the Fund’s average annual returns compare with the returns of certain indexes. Absent any applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations, performance would have been lower. The bar chart shows performance of the Fund’s Institutional Class shares. For periods prior to the inception date of Class A, Class C and Class I-2 shares (August 23, 2019), performance information shown in the table for these classes is based on the performance of the Fund's Institutional Class shares, adjusted to reflect the fees and expenses paid by these classes of shares. Performance in the Average Annual Total Returns table reflects the impact of sales charges. The Fund’s past performance, before and after taxes, is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future.

In addition to the Fund’s performance, the Average Annual Total Returns table includes performance of: (i) a broad-based securities market index (i.e., a regulatory index) and (ii) a supplemental index. It is not possible to invest directly in an unmanaged index. The Fund’s regulatory index is the MSCI All Country World Index. The Fund’s regulatory index is shown in connection with certain regulatory requirements to provide a broad measure of market performance. The MSCI All Country World Index is a free-float adjusted market capitalization weighted index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed and emerging markets. The MSCI All Country World Index consists of a group of country indexes comprising developed and emerging market indexes. The supplemental index shown is the ICE BofA SOFR Overnight Rate Index. The ICE BofA SOFR Overnight Rate Index tracks the performance of a synthetic asset paying SOFR to a stated maturity. The index is based on the assumed purchase at par of a synthetic instrument having exactly its stated maturity and with a coupon equal to that day's fixing rate. That issue is assumed to be sold the following business day (priced at a yield equal to the current day fixing rate) and rolled into a new instrument. SOFR (Secured Overnight Funding Rate) is an overnight rate (published in arrears) and was chosen by the Alternative Reference Rates Committee (“ARRC”) as the successor to the USD LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate). SOFR is secured (collateralized by Treasuries), calculated by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, and transactions based.

Portfolio Turnover

Principal Investment Strategies

The Fund seeks to exceed the total return of the S&P 500 Index by investing under normal circumstances in S&P 500 Index derivatives, backed by a portfolio of Fixed Income Instruments. In managing the Fund’s investments in Fixed Income Instruments, PIMCO utilizes an absolute return approach, which is designed to have flexibility with respect to duration, overall sector exposures, non-U.S. exposures and credit quality, both as a function of the strategy’s investment guidelines and lack of a fixed income index benchmark. The absolute return approach seeks positive investment returns regardless of market environment and does not apply to the equity index replicating component of the Fund. “Fixed Income Instruments” include bonds, debt securities and other similar instruments issued by various U.S. and non-U.S. public- or private-sector entities. The Fund normally uses S&P 500 Index derivatives instead of S&P 500 Index stocks to attempt to equal or exceed the daily performance of the S&P 500 Index. The Fund typically will seek to gain long exposure to its benchmark index in an amount, under normal circumstances, approximately equal to the Fund’s net assets. The value of S&P 500 Index derivatives should closely track changes in the value of the S&P 500 Index. However, S&P 500 Index derivatives may be purchased with a small fraction of the assets that would be needed to purchase the equity securities directly, so that the

Prospectus

remainder of the assets may be invested in Fixed Income Instruments. PIMCO actively manages the Fixed Income Instruments held by the Fund with a view toward enhancing the Fund’s total return, subject to an overall portfolio duration which normally varies from (negative) 3 years to positive 8 years based on PIMCO’s market forecasts. Duration is a measure used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates. The longer a security’s duration, the more sensitive it will be to changes in interest rates.

The S&P 500 Index is composed of 500 selected common stocks that represent approximately two-thirds of the total market value of all U.S. common stocks. The Fund seeks to remain invested in S&P 500 Index derivatives or S&P 500 Index stocks even when the S&P 500 Index is declining.

Though the Fund does not normally invest directly in S&P 500 Index securities, when S&P 500 Index derivatives appear to be overvalued relative to the S&P 500 Index, the Fund may invest all of its assets in a “basket” of S&P 500 Index stocks.

The Fund may invest, without limitation, in common stocks and derivative instruments, such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements, or in mortgage- or asset-backed securities, subject to applicable law and any other restrictions described in the Fund’s prospectus or Statement of Additional Information. The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment basis and may engage in short sales. Assets not invested in equity securities or derivatives may be invested in Fixed Income Instruments. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in high yield securities (“junk bonds”) rated B or higher by Moody’s Ratings (“Moody’s”), or equivalently rated by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) or Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”), or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality (except that within such 20% limitation, the Fund may invest in mortgage-related securities rated below B). In the event that ratings services assign different ratings to the same security, PIMCO will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security. The Fund may invest, without limitation, in securities denominated in foreign currencies and in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries (this limitation does not apply to investment grade sovereign debt denominated in the local currency with less than 1 year remaining to maturity, which means the Fund may invest in such instruments without limitation subject to any applicable legal or regulatory limitation). The Fund will normally limit its net foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 35% of its total assets. The Fund will normally limit its exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to each non-U.S. currency to 10% of its total assets. The Fund will normally limit its aggregate U.S. dollar exposure from transactions or instruments that reference the relative return of a non-U.S. currency or currencies as compared to the U.S. dollar to 20% of its total assets. The Fund may also invest up to 10% of its total assets in preferred securities.

Principal Risks

It is possible to lose money on an investment in the Fund. Under certain conditions, generally in a market where the value of both S&P 500 Index derivatives and Fixed Income Instruments are declining or in periods of heightened market volatility, the Fund may experience greater losses or lesser gains than would be the case if it invested directly in a portfolio of S&P 500 Index stocks. The principal risks of investing in the Fund, which could adversely affect its net asset value, yield and total return, are:

Performance Information

The performance information shows summary performance information for the Fund in a bar chart and an Average Annual Total Returns table. The information provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing changes in its performance from year to year and by showing how the Fund’s average annual returns compare with the returns of a broad-based securities market index (i.e., a regulatory index). Absent any applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations, performance would have been lower. The bar chart shows performance of the Fund's Institutional Class shares. For periods prior to the inception date of I-3 shares (April 27, 2018), performance information shown in the table for that class is based on the performance of the Fund’s Institutional Class shares, adjusted to reflect the fees and expenses paid by I-3 shares. Performance in the Average Annual Total Returns table reflects the impact of sales charges. The Fund’s past performance, before and after taxes, is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future.

In addition to the Fund’s performance, the Average Annual Total Returns table includes performance of a regulatory index. It is not possible to invest directly in an unmanaged index. The Fund’s regulatory index is the S&P 500 Index. The Fund's regulatory index is shown in connection with certain regulatory requirements to provide a broad measure of market performance. The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged market index generally considered representative of the stock market as a whole. The S&P 500 Index is composed of 500 selected common stocks that represent approximately two thirds of the total market value of all U.S. common stocks. The S&P 500 Index focuses on the large-cap segment of the U.S. equities market.

Portfolio Turnover

Principal Investment Strategies

The Fund seeks to exceed the total return of the S&P 500 Index by investing under normal circumstances in S&P 500 Index derivatives, backed by a portfolio of Fixed Income Instruments. “Fixed Income Instruments” include bonds, debt securities and other similar instruments issued by various U.S. and non-U.S. public- or private-sector entities. The Fund normally uses S&P 500 Index derivatives in addition to or in place of S&P 500 Index stocks to attempt to equal or exceed the daily performance of the S&P 500 Index. The value of S&P 500 Index derivatives should closely track changes in the value of the S&P 500 Index. The Fund typically will seek to gain long exposure to its benchmark index in an amount, under normal circumstances, approximately equal to the Fund’s net assets. However, S&P 500 Index derivatives may be purchased with a fraction of the assets that would be

PIMCO StocksPLUS^® Fund

needed to purchase the equity securities directly, so that the remainder of the assets may be invested in Fixed Income Instruments. PIMCO actively manages the Fixed Income Instruments held by the Fund with a view toward enhancing the Fund’s total return, subject to an overall portfolio duration which is normally not expected to exceed one year. Duration is a measure used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates. The longer a security’s duration, the more sensitive it will be to changes in interest rates.

The Fund may invest, without limitation, in common stocks and derivative instruments, such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements, or in mortgage- or asset-backed securities, subject to applicable law and any other restrictions described in the Fund’s prospectus or Statement of Additional Information. The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment basis and may engage in short sales. Assets not invested in equity securities or derivatives may be invested in Fixed Income Instruments. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets in high yield securities (“junk bonds”) rated B or higher by Moody’s Ratings (“Moody’s”), or equivalently rated by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) or Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”), or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality (except that within such 10% limitation, the Fund may invest in mortgage-related securities rated below B). In the event that ratings services assign different ratings to the same security, PIMCO will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security. The Fund may invest up to 30% of its total assets in securities denominated in foreign currencies and may invest beyond this limit in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries (this limitation does not apply to investment grade sovereign debt denominated in the local currency with less than 1 year remaining to maturity, which means the Fund may invest, together with any other investments denominated in foreign currencies, up to 30% of its total assets in such instruments). The Fund will normally limit its net foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 20% of its total assets. The Fund may also invest up to 10% of its total assets in preferred securities.

Performance Information

The performance information shows summary performance information for the Fund in a bar chart and an Average Annual Total Returns table. The information provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing changes in its performance from year to year and by showing how the Fund’s average annual returns compare with the returns of a broad-based securities market index (i.e., a regulatory index). Absent any applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations, performance would have been lower. The bar chart shows performance of the Fund's Institutional Class shares. For the period prior to the inception date of the I-3 shares (April 27, 2018), performance information shown in the table for that class is based on the performance of the Fund’s Institutional Class shares, adjusted to reflect the fees and expenses paid by I-3 shares. Performance in the Average Annual Total Returns table reflects the impact of sales charges. The Fund’s past performance, before and after taxes, is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future.

In addition to the Fund’s performance, the Average Annual Total Returns table includes performance of a regulatory index. It is not possible to invest directly in an unmanaged index. The Fund’s regulatory index is the S&P 500 Index. The Fund’s regulatory index is shown in connection with certain regulatory requirements to provide a broad measure of market performance. The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged market index generally considered representative of the stock market as a whole. The S&P 500 Index is composed of 500 selected common stocks that represent approximately two thirds of the total market value of all U.S. common stocks. The S&P 500 Index focuses on the large-cap segment of the U.S. equities market.

Portfolio Turnover

Principal Investment Strategies

The Fund seeks to exceed the total return of its benchmark index by investing under normal circumstances in non-U.S. equity derivatives, backed by a portfolio of Fixed Income Instruments. In managing the Fund’s investments in Fixed Income Instruments, PIMCO utilizes an absolute return approach, which is designed to have flexibility with respect to duration, overall sector exposures, non-U.S. exposures and credit quality, both as a function of the strategy’s investment guidelines and lack of a fixed income index benchmark. The absolute return approach seeks positive investment returns regardless of market environment and does not apply to the equity index replicating component of the Fund. “Fixed Income Instruments” include bonds, debt securities and other similar instruments issued by various U.S. and non-U.S. public- or private-sector entities. The Fund will normally limit its net foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 20% of its total assets. The Fund’s benchmark index is the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia and Far East (“EAFE”) Index, hedged to U.S. dollars (the “Index”). The Fund normally uses equity derivatives instead of stocks to attempt to equal or exceed the daily performance of the Index. The Fund typically will seek to gain long exposure to its benchmark index in an amount, under normal circumstances, approximately equal to the Fund’s net assets. The value of equity derivatives should closely track changes in the value of underlying securities or indices. However, derivatives may be purchased with a small fraction of the assets that would be needed

to purchase the equity securities directly, so that the remainder of the assets may be invested in Fixed Income Instruments. PIMCO actively manages the Fixed Income Instruments held by the Fund with a view toward enhancing the Fund’s total return, subject to an overall portfolio duration which normally varies from (negative) 3 years to positive 8 years based on PIMCO’s market forecasts. Duration is a measure used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates. The longer a security’s duration, the more sensitive it will be to changes in interest rates.

The Index is an unmanaged index of issuers in countries of Europe, Australia and the Far East represented in U.S. dollars on a hedged basis. The Fund seeks to remain invested in equity derivatives and/or stocks even when the Index is declining. The Fund may invest in non-U.S. equities or non-U.S. equity derivatives that do not comprise the Index.

The Fund does not normally invest directly in stocks. However, when equity derivatives appear to be overvalued, the Fund may invest some or all of its assets in stocks.

The Fund may invest, without limitation, in common stocks and derivative instruments, such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements, or in mortgage- or asset-backed securities, subject to applicable law and any other restrictions described in the Fund’s prospectus or Statement of Additional Information. The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment basis and may engage in short sales. Assets not invested in equity securities or derivatives may be invested in Fixed Income Instruments. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in high yield securities (“junk bonds”) rated B or higher by Moody’s Ratings (“Moody’s”), or equivalently rated by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) or Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”), or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality (except that within such 20% limitation, the Fund may invest in mortgage-related securities rated below B). In the event that ratings services assign different ratings to the same security, PIMCO will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security. With respect to the Fund’s fixed income investments, the Fund may invest, without limitation, in securities denominated in foreign currencies and in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers. With respect to the Fund’s fixed income investments, the Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries (this limitation does not apply to investment grade sovereign debt denominated in the local currency with less than 1 year remaining to maturity, which means with respect to the Fund’s fixed income investments, the Fund may invest in such instruments without limitation subject to any applicable legal or regulatory limitation). With respect to the Fund’s fixed income investments, the Fund will normally limit its net foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 35% of its total assets. With respect to the Fund’s fixed income investments, the Fund will normally limit its exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to each non-U.S. currency to 10% of its total assets. With respect to the Fund’s fixed income investments, the Fund will normally limit its aggregate

U.S. dollar exposure from transactions or instruments that reference the relative return of a non-U.S. currency or currencies as compared to the U.S. dollar to 20% of its total assets. The Fund may also invest up to 10% of its total assets in preferred securities.

Principal Risks

It is possible to lose money on an investment in the Fund. Under certain conditions, generally in a market where the value of both Index derivatives and Fixed Income Instruments are declining or in periods of heightened market volatility, the Fund may experience greater losses or lesser gains than would be the case if it invested directly in a portfolio of stocks comprising the Index. The principal risks of investing in the Fund, which could adversely affect its net asset value, yield and total return, are:

Issuer Risk: the risk that the value of a security may decline for reasons related to the issuer, such as management performance, changes in

Emerging Markets Risk: the risk of investing in emerging market securities, primarily increased foreign (non-U.S.) investment risk

heightened risk of loss. The use of leverage may also increase the Fund’s sensitivity to interest rate risks

Turnover Risk: the risk that high levels of portfolio turnover may increase transaction costs and taxes and may lower investment performance

Performance Information

The performance information shows summary performance information for the Fund in a bar chart and an Average Annual Total Returns table. The information provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing changes in its performance from year to year and by showing how the Fund’s average annual returns compare with the returns of a broad-based securities market index (i.e., a regulatory index). Absent any applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations, performance would have been lower. The bar chart shows performance of the Fund's Institutional Class shares. For periods prior to the inception date of I-3 shares (April 27, 2018), performance information shown in the table for that class is based on the performance of the Fund’s Institutional Class shares, adjusted to reflect the fees and expenses paid by I-3 shares. Performance in the Average Annual Total Returns table reflects the impact of sales charges. The Fund’s past performance, before and after taxes, is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future.

In addition to the Fund’s performance, the Average Annual Total Returns table includes performance of a regulatory index. It is not possible to invest directly in an unmanaged index. The Fund’s regulatory index is the MSCI EAFE Hedged USD Index. The MSCI EAFE Hedged USD Index is an unmanaged index of issuers in countries of Europe, Australia, and the Far East represented in U.S. Dollars on a hedged basis.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Fund seeks to exceed the total return of its benchmark indexes, the S&P 500 Index and a secondary blended index (as described below, and together with the S&P 500 Index, the “Indexes”), by investing under normal circumstances in S&P 500 Index derivatives, backed by a diversified portfolio of long-term Fixed Income Instruments. “Fixed Income Instruments” include bonds, debt securities and other similar instruments issued by various U.S. and non-U.S. public- or private-sector entities. The Fund normally uses S&P 500 Index derivatives instead of S&P 500 Index stocks to attempt to equal or exceed the daily performance of the Indexes. The Fund typically will seek to gain long exposure to the S&P 500 Index in an amount, under normal circumstances, approximately equal to the Fund’s net assets. The value of S&P 500 Index derivatives should closely track changes in the value of the S&P 500 Index. However, S&P 500 Index derivatives may be purchased with a small fraction of the assets that would be needed to purchase the equity securities directly, so that the remainder of the assets may be invested in Fixed Income Instruments. PIMCO actively manages the Fixed Income Instruments held by the Fund with a view toward enhancing the Fund’s total return, subject to an overall portfolio duration which normally varies within two years (plus or minus) of the portfolio duration of the securities comprising the Bloomberg Long-Term Government/Credit Index, as calculated by PIMCO, which as of May 31, 2025 was 13.26 years. Duration is a measure used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates. The longer a security’s duration, the more sensitive it will be to changes in interest rates.

The S&P 500 Index is composed of 500 selected common stocks that represent approximately two-thirds of the total market value of all U.S. common stocks. The Fund seeks to remain invested in S&P 500 Index derivatives and/or S&P 500 Index stocks even when the S&P 500 Index is declining.

represent approximately two thirds of the total market value of all U.S. common stocks. The S&P 500 Index focuses on the large-cap segment of the U.S. equities market. The supplemental index shown is a blend constructed by adding the returns of the S&P 500 Index to the Bloomberg Long-Term Government/Credit Index and subtracting ICE BofA SOFR Overnight Rate Index. This blend is intended to represent a portfolio which obtains 100% exposure to the S&P 500 Index via derivatives in exchange for payment of SOFR and invests the capital in a long duration bond portfolio. The Bloomberg Long-Term Government/Credit Index is an unmanaged index of U.S. Government or Investment Grade Credit Securities having a maturity of 10 years or more. The ICE BofA SOFR Overnight Rate Index tracks the performance of a synthetic asset paying SOFR to a stated maturity. The index is based on the assumed purchase at par of a synthetic instrument having exactly its stated maturity and with a coupon equal to that day’s fixing rate. That issue is assumed to be sold the following business day (priced at a yield equal to the current day fixing rate) and rolled into a new instrument. SOFR (Secured Overnight Funding Rate) is an overnight rate (published in arrears) and was chosen by the Alternative Reference Rates Committee (“ARRC”) as the successor to the USD LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate). SOFR is secured (collateralized by Treasuries), calculated by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, and transactions based.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in short positions with respect to the S&P 500 Index (the “Index”) or specific Index securities, backed by a portfolio of Fixed Income Instruments, such that the Fund’s net asset value may vary inversely with the value of the Index on a daily basis, subject to certain limitations summarized below. In managing the Fund’s investments in Fixed Income Instruments, PIMCO utilizes an absolute return approach, which is designed to have flexibility with respect to duration, overall sector exposures, non-U.S. exposures and credit quality, both as a function of the strategy’s investment guidelines and lack of a fixed income index benchmark. The absolute return approach seeks positive investment returns regardless of market environment and does not apply to the equity index replicating component of the Fund. “Fixed Income Instruments” include bonds, debt securities and other similar instruments issued by various U.S. and non-U.S. public- or private-sector entities. The Fund will generally benefit when the price of the Index is declining. When the Index is rising or flat, the Fund will generally not perform as well. Fixed Income Instruments owned by the Fund may also benefit or detract from the Fund’s net asset value. The Fund is designed for investors seeking to take advantage of declines in the value of the Index, or investors wishing to hedge existing long equity positions. However, the Fund is not designed or expected to produce returns which

replicate the inverse of the performance of the Index due to compounding, PIMCO active management, Fund fees and expenses and other factors discussed below.

The Fund will maintain short positions through the use of a combination of derivatives, including options, futures, options on futures, and swaps. The Fund may invest, without limitation, in such instruments and common stocks. While the Fund will, under normal circumstances, invest primarily in Index short positions backed by a portfolio of Fixed Income Instruments, PIMCO may reduce the Fund’s exposure to Index short positions when PIMCO deems it appropriate to do so. Additionally, the Fund may purchase call options on Index futures contracts or on other similar Index derivatives in an effort to limit the total potential decline in the Fund’s net asset value during a market in which prices of securities are rising or expected to rise. Further, PIMCO, in its discretion, may seek to reduce the overall risk in the Fund's portfolio of Fixed Income Instruments when the Fund's short equity positions have generated or generate higher levels of income.

Assets not invested in equity securities or derivatives may be invested in Fixed Income Instruments. PIMCO actively manages the fixed income assets held by the Fund with a view toward enhancing the Fund’s total return, subject to an overall portfolio duration which normally varies from (negative) 3 years to positive 8 years based on PIMCO’s market forecasts. Duration is a measure used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates. The longer a security’s duration, the more sensitive it will be to changes in interest rates. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in high yield securities (“junk bonds”) rated B or higher by Moody’s Ratings (“Moody’s”), or equivalently rated by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) or Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”), or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality (except that within such 20% limitation, the Fund may invest in mortgage-related securities rated below B). In the event that ratings services assign different ratings to the same security, PIMCO will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security. The Fund may invest, without limitation, in securities denominated in foreign currencies and in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries (this limitation does not apply to investment grade sovereign debt denominated in the local currency with less than 1 year remaining to maturity, which means the Fund may invest in such instruments without limitation subject to any applicable legal or regulatory limitation). The Fund will normally limit its net foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 35% of its total assets. The Fund will normally limit its exposure (from non- U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to each non-U.S. currency to 10% of its total assets. The Fund will normally limit its aggregate U.S. dollar exposure from transactions or instruments that reference the relative return of a non-U.S. currency or currencies as compared to the U.S. dollar to 20% of its total assets. The Fund may also invest up to 10% of its total assets in preferred securities.

Although the Fund uses derivatives and other short positions to gain exposures that may vary inversely with the performance of the Index on a daily basis, the Fund as a whole is not designed or expected to produce returns which replicate the inverse of the performance of the Index, and the degree of variation could be substantial, particularly over longer periods.

Principal Risks

It is possible to lose money on an investment in the Fund. Under certain conditions, even if the value of the Index is flat or declining (which could be beneficial to the Fund’s short strategy), this could be offset by declining values of Fixed Income Instruments held by the Fund. Conversely, it is possible that rising fixed income securities prices could be offset by a flat or rising Index (which could lead to losses in a short strategy). In either scenario the Fund may experience losses. In a market where the value of the Index is rising and the Fund’s Fixed Income Instrument holdings are declining, the Fund may experience substantial losses. The Fund presents different risks than other types of funds. The Fund may not be suitable for all investors and should be used only by knowledgeable investors who understand the risks and potential consequences of seeking inverse investment results, including the impact of compounding on Fund performance. Investors in the Fund should actively monitor their investments, as frequently as daily. An investor in the Fund could potentially lose the full principal value of his/her investment. The principal risks of investing in the Fund, which could adversely affect its net asset value, yield and total return, are:

unwilling, or is perceived (whether by market participants, rating agencies, pricing services or otherwise) as unable or unwilling, to meet its financial obligations

Inverse Correlation and Compounding Risk: the risk that the Fund’s performance may vary substantially from the inverse performance of the Index for a number of reasons, including market volatility, the effects of compounding on the performance of the Fund’s derivatives short positions if held for more than one day, the results of PIMCO’s active management of the Fund (such as income, gains or losses from Fixed Income Instruments and variations in the Fund’s level of short exposure) and that derivatives positions in general may not correlate exactly with an index

Emerging Markets Risk: the risk of investing in emerging market securities, primarily increased foreign (non-U.S.) investment risk

with a view toward enhancing the Fund’s total return, subject to an overall portfolio duration which normally varies from (negative) 3 years to positive 8 years based on PIMCO’s market forecasts. Duration is a measure used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates. The longer a security’s duration, the more sensitive it will be to changes in interest rates.

The Russell 2000® Index is composed of 2,000 of the smallest companies in the Russell 3000® Index, which represents approximately 10% of the total market capitalization of the Russell 3000® Index. As of June 30, 2023, the Russell 2000® Index’s average market capitalization (dollar-weighted) was $2.54 billion. The Fund seeks to remain invested in Russell 2000® Index derivatives or Russell 2000® Index stocks even when the Russell 2000® Index is declining.

Though the Fund does not normally invest directly in Russell 2000® Index securities, when Russell 2000® Index derivatives appear to be overvalued relative to the Russell 2000® Index, the Fund may invest all of its assets in a “basket” of Russell 2000® Index stocks.

The Fund may invest, without limitation, in common stocks and derivative instruments, such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements, or in mortgage- or asset-backed securities, subject to applicable law and any other restrictions described in the Fund’s prospectus or Statement of Additional Information. The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment basis and may engage in short sales. Assets not invested in equity securities or derivatives may be invested in Fixed Income Instruments. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in high yield securities (“junk bonds”) rated B or higher by Moody’s Ratings (“Moody’s”), or equivalently rated by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) or Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”), or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality (except that within such 20% limitation, the Fund may invest in mortgage-related securities rated below B). In the event that ratings services assign different ratings to the same security, PIMCO will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security. The Fund may invest, without limitation, in securities denominated in foreign currencies and in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers. With respect to the Fund’s fixed income investments, the Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries (this limitation does not apply to investment grade sovereign debt denominated in the local currency with less than 1 year remaining to maturity, which means the Fund may invest in such instruments without limitation subject to any applicable legal or regulatory limitation). With respect to the Fund’s fixed income investments, the Fund will normally limit its net foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 35% of its total assets. With respect to the Fund’s fixed income investments, the Fund will normally limit its exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to each non-U.S. currency to 10% of its total assets.

Principal Risks

It is possible to lose money on an investment in the Fund. Under certain conditions, generally in a market where the value of both Russell 2000® Index derivatives and Fixed Income Instruments are declining or in periods of heightened market volatility, the Fund may experience greater losses or lesser gains than would be the case if it invested directly in a portfolio of Russell 2000® Index stocks.

Small Fund Risk

A smaller fund may not grow to or maintain an economically viable size to achieve investment or trading efficiencies or may be limited in ability to participate in certain investment opportunities due to its size, which may negatively impact performance and/or force the fund to liquidate. Additionally, a smaller fund may be more adversely affected by large purchases or redemptions by investors, which can occur at any time and may impact a fund in the same manner as a high volume of purchases or redemptions.

Interest Rate Risk

PIMCO Funds

result in increased duration, and vice versa, meaning increased sensitivity in prices in response to changes in interest rates. Thus, securities with negative convexity, which may include bonds with traditional call features and certain mortgage-backed securities, may experience greater losses in periods of rising interest rates. Accordingly, if a Fund holds such securities, a Fund may be subject to a greater risk of losses in periods of rising interest rates.

Call Risk

Credit Risk

High Yield Risk

70 Prospectus | PIMCO Funds

Prospectus

high yield securities in which a Fund invests may not be listed on any exchange and a secondary market for such securities may be comparatively illiquid relative to markets for other more liquid fixed income securities. Consequently, transactions in high yield securities may involve greater costs than transactions in more actively traded securities. A lack of publicly available information, irregular trading activity and wide bid/ask spreads among other factors, may, in certain circumstances, make high yield debt more difficult to sell at an advantageous time or price than other types of securities or instruments. These factors may result in a Fund being unable to realize full value for these securities and/or may result in a Fund not receiving the proceeds from a sale of a high yield security for an extended period after such sale, each of which could result in losses to a Fund. In addition, adverse publicity and investor perceptions, whether or not based on fundamental analysis, may decrease the values and liquidity of high yield securities, especially in thinly traded markets. When secondary markets for high yield securities are less liquid than the market for other types of securities, it may be more difficult to value the securities because such valuation may require more research, and elements of judgment may play a greater role in the valuation because there is less reliable, objective data available. Because of the risks involved in investing in high yield securities, an investment in a Fund that invests in such securities should be considered speculative.

Market Risk

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus 71

PIMCO Funds

Issuer Risk

Liquidity Risk

In such cases, a Fund, due to regulatory limitations on investments in illiquid investments and the difficulty in purchasing and selling such securities or instruments, may be unable to achieve its desired level of exposure to a certain sector. To the extent that a Fund’s principal investment strategies involve securities of companies with smaller market capitalizations, foreign (non-U.S.) securities, Rule 144A securities, Regulation S securities, illiquid sectors of fixed income securities, derivatives or securities with substantial market and/or credit risk, a Fund will tend to have the greatest exposure to liquidity risk. Further, fixed income securities with longer durations until maturity face heightened levels of liquidity risk as compared to fixed income securities with shorter durations until maturity. Finally, liquidity risk refers to the risk of unusually high redemption requests, redemption requests by certain large shareholders such as institutional investors or asset allocators, or other unusual market conditions that may make it difficult for a Fund to sell investments within the allowable time period to meet redemptions. Meeting such redemption requests could

Prospectus

require a Fund to sell securities at reduced prices or under unfavorable conditions, which would have an adverse effect on a Fund. It may also be the case that other market participants may be attempting to liquidate fixed income holdings at the same time as a Fund, causing increased supply in the market and contributing to liquidity risk and downward pricing pressure.

Derivatives Risk

A Fund’s use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, and possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. Derivatives may increase market exposure and are subject to a number of risks, such as liquidity risk (which may be heightened for highly-customized derivatives), interest rate risk, market risk, leverage risk, counterparty (including credit) risk, operational risk (such as documentation issues, settlement issues and systems failures), legal risk (such as insufficient documentation, insufficient capacity or authority of a counterparty, and issues with the legality or enforceability of a contract), management risk, risks arising from changes in applicable regulatory requirements, risks arising from margin requirements, risks arising from mispricing or valuation complexity (including the risk of improper valuation), governmental risk, risks associated with the underlying asset, reference rate or index, and risks associated with sanctions. They also involve the risk that changes in the value of a derivative instrument may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. In this regard, many of the Funds offered in this prospectus seek to achieve their investment objectives, in part, by investing in derivatives that are designed to closely track the performance (or inverse performance) of an index on a daily basis. However, the overall investment strategies of these Funds are not generally designed or expected to produce returns which replicate the performance (or inverse performance) of the particular index, and the degree of variation could be substantial, particularly over longer periods. There are a number of factors which may prevent a Fund, or the derivatives or other strategies used by a Fund, from achieving desired correlation (or inverse correlation) with an index, such as the impact of fees, expenses and transaction costs, the timing of pricing, and disruptions or illiquidity in the markets for derivative instruments or securities in which a Fund invests. Further, in the case of Funds that attempt to produce returns from short derivatives positions which correlate inversely with the performance of an index on a daily basis, such as the PIMCO StocksPLUS® Short Fund, for periods greater than one day, the effect of compounding may result in the performance of the derivatives, and the Fund’s performance attributable to those positions, to be either greater than or less than the inverse of the index performance, and the extent of the variation could be substantial due to market volatility and other factors. See “Characteristics and Risks of Securities and Investment Techniques—Derivatives— Correlation Risk.” For further discussion of risks associated with the PIMCO StocksPLUS® Short Fund, please see “Inverse Correlation and Compounding Risk.”

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus 73

PIMCO Funds

By investing in a derivative instrument, a Fund could lose more than the initial amount invested and derivatives may increase the volatility of a Fund, especially in unusual or extreme market conditions. Certain derivatives have the potential for unlimited loss, regardless of the size of the initial investment. A Fund may utilize asset segregation and posting of collateral for risk management or other purposes. A Fund may be required to hold additional cash or sell other investments in order to obtain cash to close out a position and changes in the value of a derivative may also create margin delivery or settlement payment obligations for a Fund. Also, suitable derivative transactions may not be available in all circumstances and there can be no assurance that a Fund will engage in these transactions to reduce exposure to other risks when that would be beneficial or that, if used, such strategies will be successful. In addition, a Fund’s use of derivatives may increase or accelerate the amount of taxes payable by shareholders. Non-centrally-cleared over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivatives are also subject to the risk that a counterparty to the transaction will not fulfill its contractual obligations to the other party, as many of the protections afforded to centrally-cleared derivative transactions might not be available for non-centrally-cleared OTC derivatives. The primary credit risk on derivatives or other similar investments that are exchange-traded or traded through a central clearing counterparty resides with a Fund's clearing broker or the clearinghouse.

Derivatives that are cleared by a central clearing organization can still be subject to different risks, including the creditworthiness of the central clearing organization and its members.

Equity Risk

74 Prospectus | PIMCO Funds

Prospectus

be subject to greater credit risk or other risks, such as risks related to deferred and omitted distributions, limited voting rights, liquidity, interest rates, regulatory changes and special redemption rights. Equity or equity-related securities generally have greater price volatility than most fixed income securities. These risks are generally magnified in the case of equity investments in distressed companies.

Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities Risk

Mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities represent interests in “pools” of mortgages or other assets such as consumer loans or receivables held in trust and often involve risks that are different from or possibly more acute than risks associated with other types of debt instruments. Generally, rising interest rates tend to extend the duration of fixed rate mortgage-related securities, making them more sensitive to changes in interest rates. Compared to other fixed income investments with similar maturity and credit, mortgage-related securities may increase in value to a lesser extent when interest rates decline and may decline in value to a similar or greater extent when interest rates rise. As a result, in a period of rising interest rates, if a Fund holds mortgage-related securities, it may exhibit additional volatility since individual mortgage holders are less likely to exercise prepayment options, thereby putting additional downward pressure on the value of these securities and potentially causing a Fund to experience losses. This is known as extension risk. Mortgage-backed securities can be highly sensitive to rising interest rates, such that even small movements can cause an investing Fund to lose value. Mortgage-backed securities, and in particular those not backed by a government guarantee, are subject to credit risk. In addition, adjustable and fixed rate mortgage-related securities are subject to prepayment risk. When interest rates decline, borrowers may pay off their mortgages sooner than expected. This can reduce the returns of a Fund because a Fund may have to reinvest that money at the lower prevailing interest rates. In addition, the creditworthiness, servicing practices, and financial viability of the servicers of the underlying mortgage pools present significant risks. For instance, a servicer may be required to make advances in respect of delinquent loans underlying the mortgage-related securities; however, servicers experiencing financial difficulties may not be able to perform these obligations. Additionally, both mortgage-related and asset-backed securities are subject to risks associated with fraud or negligence by, or defalcation of, their servicers. These securities are also subject to the risks of the underlying loans. In some circumstances, a servicer’s or originator’s mishandling of documentation related to the underlying collateral (e.g., failure to properly document a security interest in the underlying collateral) may affect the rights of security holders in and to the underlying collateral. In addition, the underlying loans may have been extended pursuant to inappropriate underwriting guidelines, to no underwriting guidelines at all, or to fraudulent origination practices. The owner of a mortgage-backed security’s ability to recover against the sponsor, servicer or originator is uncertain and is often limited.

Foreign (Non-U.S.) Investment Risk

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus 75

PIMCO Funds

Emerging Markets Risk

Foreign (non-U.S.) investment risk may be particularly high to the extent a Fund invests in emerging market securities. Emerging market securities may present market, credit, currency, liquidity, volatility, legal, political, technical, headline, reputational, and other risks different from, and potentially greater than, the risks of investing in securities and instruments economically tied to developed foreign countries. To the extent a Fund invests in emerging market securities or other investments that are economically tied to a particular region, country or group of countries, a Fund may be more sensitive to adverse political, social, environmental and health events affecting that region, country or group of countries. Economic, business, political or social instability may affect emerging market securities differently, and often more severely, than developed market securities. A Fund that focuses its investments in multiple asset classes of emerging market securities may have a limited ability to mitigate losses in an environment that is adverse to emerging market securities in general. Emerging market securities may also be more volatile, less liquid (particularly during market closures due to local holidays or other reasons) and more difficult to value than securities economically tied to developed foreign countries. The systems and procedures for trading and settlement of securities in emerging markets are less developed and less transparent and transactions may take longer to settle. Emerging market countries typically have less established regulatory, disclosure, legal, accounting, recordkeeping and financial reporting systems than those in more developed markets, which may increase the potential for market manipulation or reduce the scope or quality of financial information available to investors. Governments in emerging market countries are often less stable and more likely to take extra-legal action with respect to companies, industries, assets, or foreign ownership than those in more developed markets. Moreover, it can be more difficult for investors to bring litigation or enforce judgments, or to obtain information needed to pursue or enforce such judgments against issuers in emerging markets or for U.S. regulators to bring enforcement actions against such issuers. In addition, foreign companies with securities listed on U.S. exchanges may be delisted if they do not meet U.S. accounting standards and auditor oversight requirements, which may decrease the liquidity and value of the securities. Emerging markets may also be more susceptible to fraud, corruption, money laundering and economic sanctions risk, which may result in negative commercial consequences in relation to the value, liquidity and tradability of investments in or related to those regions. A Fund may also be subject to Emerging Markets Risk if it invests in derivatives or other securities or instruments whose value or return are related to the value or returns of emerging markets securities. Rising interest rates, combined with widening credit spreads, could negatively impact the value of emerging market debt and increase funding costs for foreign issuers. In such a scenario, foreign issuers might not be able to service their debt obligations, the market for emerging market debt could suffer from reduced liquidity, and any investing Fund could experience losses. The economy of some emerging markets may be particularly exposed to or affected by a certain industry or sector, and therefore issuers and/or securities of such emerging markets may be more affected by the performance of such industries or sectors.

China Risk

Investing in securities and instruments economically tied to the PRC subjects a Fund to certain of the risks of investing in foreign (non-U.S.) securities and emerging market securities, as well as additional risks. These other risks include (without limitation): (a) inefficiencies resulting from erratic growth; (b) the unavailability of consistently-reliable economic or financial data; (c) potentially high rates of inflation; (d) dependence on exports and international trade, including the risk of increased trade tariffs, outbound investment measures, sanctions and embargoes; (e) relatively high levels of asset price volatility; (f) potential shortage of liquidity and limited accessibility by foreign (non-U.S.) investors (including as a result of sanctions); (g) greater competition from regional economies and territorial and other disputes with other countries; (h) fluctuations in currency exchange rates or currency devaluation by the PRC government or central bank, particularly in light of the relative lack of currency hedging instruments and controls on the ability to exchange local currency for U.S. dollars; (i) the relatively small size and absence of operating history of many PRC companies; (j) the developing nature of the legal and regulatory framework for securities markets, custody arrangements and commerce; (k) uncertainty and potential changes with respect to the rules and regulations of the qualified foreign institutional investors (“QFII”) program and other market access programs through which such investments are made; (l) the commitment of the PRC government to continue with its economic reforms; (m) PRC regulators may suspend trading in PRC issuers (or permit such issuers to suspend trading) during market disruptions, and that such suspensions may be widespread and increase the risk of market manipulation; (n) different regulatory and audit requirements related to the quality of financial statements of Chinese issuers; (o) limitations on the ability to inspect the quality of audits performed in China, particularly the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board’s (“PCAOB’s”) lack of access to inspect PCAOB-registered accounting firms in China; (p) limitations on the ability of U.S. authorities to enforce actions against non-U.S. companies and non-U.S. persons; and (q) limitations on the rights and remedies of investors as a matter of law. In addition, there also exists control on foreign (non-U.S.) investment in the PRC and limitations on repatriation of invested capital.

In recent years, certain governmental bodies (including the U.S. Government) have considered and, in some cases, imposed sanctions, trade and investment restrictions and notification requirements on the PRC (as well as Hong Kong and Macau), and it is possible that additional restrictions may be imposed or retaliatory action may be taken in the future. Complying with such restrictions may prevent a Fund from pursuing certain investments, cause delays or other impediments with respect to consummating such investments, require notification of such investments to government authorities, require divestment or freezing of investments on unfavorable terms, render divestment of underperforming investments impracticable, negatively impact a Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective, prevent a Fund from receiving payments otherwise due it, require a Fund to obtain information about underlying investors, increase diligence and other similar costs to a Fund, render valuation of China-related investments challenging, or require a Fund to consummate an investment on terms that are less advantageous than would be the case absent such restrictions. Any of these outcomes could adversely affect a Fund’s performance with respect to such investments, and thus a Fund’s performance as a whole.

Given the complex and evolving relationship between the PRC and certain other countries, it is difficult to predict the impact of such restrictions on market conditions. Foreign (non-U.S.) relations, such as the PRC-U.S. relationship regarding trade, currency exchange, intellectual property protection, among other things, could also have implications with respect to capital flow and business operations. For example, U.S. social, political, regulatory and economic conditions prompting changes in laws and policies governing foreign (non-U.S.) trade, manufacturing, developments and investments in the PRC could limit a Fund’s ability to access certain opportunities in PRC or restrict transaction with certain PRC issuers and, as a result, could adversely affect the performance of a Fund’s investments.

hedged. Although a Fund may attempt to hedge its currency exposure into the U.S. dollar, it may not be successful in reducing the effects of currency fluctuations. A Fund may also hedge from one foreign currency to another. In addition, a Fund’s use of currency hedging may not be successful and the use of such strategies may lower a Fund’s potential returns.

Leveraging Risk

Smaller Company Risk

The general risks associated with debt instruments or equity securities are particularly pronounced for securities issued by companies with smaller market capitalizations. Smaller capitalization companies involve certain special risks. They are more likely than larger companies to have limited product lines, markets or financial resources, or to depend on a small, inexperienced management group. Securities of smaller companies may trade less frequently and in lesser volume than more widely held securities and their values may fluctuate more sharply than other securities. They may also have limited liquidity. These securities may therefore be more vulnerable to adverse developments than securities of larger companies, and the Fund may have difficulty purchasing or selling securities positions in smaller companies at prevailing market prices. Also, there may be less publicly available information about smaller companies or less market interest in their securities as compared to larger companies. Companies with medium-sized market capitalizations may have risks similar to those of smaller companies.

Management Risk

The Funds are subject to management risk because they are actively managed investment portfolios. PIMCO or the Sub-Adviser, as applicable, and each individual portfolio manager will apply investment techniques and risk analysis and will, in some cases, rely partially or entirely upon or be informed by one or more quantitative models in making investment decisions for the Funds. PIMCO or the Sub-Adviser, as applicable, and each portfolio manager may not consider every factor or may determine that certain factors are more significant than others. There can be no guarantee that these decisions will produce the desired results or that the due diligence conducted by PIMCO or the Sub-Adviser, as applicable, and individual

78 Prospectus | PIMCO Funds

Prospectus

portfolio managers will evaluate every factor prior to investing in a company or issuer and expose all material risks associated with an investment. Additionally, PIMCO and individual portfolio managers may not be able to identify suitable investment opportunities and may face competition from other investment managers when identifying and consummating certain investments. Certain securities or other instruments in which a Fund seeks to invest may not be available in the quantities desired, including in circumstances where other funds for which PIMCO acts as investment adviser, including funds with names, investment objectives and policies, and/or portfolio management teams, similar to a Fund, are seeking to invest in the same or similar securities or instruments. In addition, regulatory restrictions, actual or potential conflicts of interest or other considerations may cause PIMCO to restrict or prohibit participation in certain investments. In such circumstances, PIMCO or the Sub-Adviser, as applicable, or the individual portfolio managers may determine to purchase other securities or instruments as substitutes. Such substitute securities or instruments may not perform as intended, which could result in losses to a Fund . To the extent a Fund employs strategies targeting perceived pricing inefficiencies, arbitrage strategies or similar strategies, it is subject to the risk that the pricing or valuation of the securities and instruments involved in such strategies may change unexpectedly, which may result in reduced returns or losses to a Fund. Each Fund is also subject to the risk that deficiencies in the internal systems or controls of PIMCO or another service provider will cause losses for a Fund or hinder Fund operations. For example, trading delays or errors (both human and systemic) could prevent a Fund from purchasing a security expected to appreciate in value. Please refer to “Portfolio Managers – Conflicts of Interest” in the SAI for further information. Additionally, actual or potential conflicts of interest, legislative, regulatory, or tax restrictions, policies or developments may affect the investment techniques available to PIMCO and each individual portfolio manager in connection with managing the Funds may cause PIMCO to restrict or prohibit participation in certain investments and may also adversely affect the ability of the Funds to achieve their investment objectives. There also can be no assurance that all of the personnel of PIMCO or the Sub-Adviser will continue to be associated with PIMCO or the Sub-Adviser for any length of time. The loss of services of one or more key employees of PIMCO or the Sub-Adviser could have an adverse impact on a Fund’s ability to realize its investment objective.

Similarly, there can be no assurance that quantitative models utilized by the Sub-Adviser or related data sources will always be available, and the loss of access to any such model(s) or data sources could have an adverse impact on the Fund’s ability to realize its investment objective. Because certain Funds obtain exposure to certain proprietary model stock portfolios by investing in equity total return swaps based on such model portfolios, in other securities and instruments to replicate the performance of such model portfolios, or directly in the equity securities held in such model portfolios, such Funds will be subject to the risks associated with the management of these proprietary model stock portfolios by the Sub-Adviser to such Funds.

Model Risk

In making investment allocation decisions, PIMCO or the Sub-Adviser may utilize proprietary quantitative models. These models are used by PIMCO or the Sub-Adviser to determine the Fund’s investment allocation decisions. The Fund's investment models used in making investment allocation decisions may not adequately take into account certain factors, may contain design flaws or faulty assumptions, and may rely on incomplete or inaccurate data, any of which may result in a decline in the value of the investment. There can be no assurance that the models used by PIMCO or the Sub-Adviser will remain viable, due to various factors, which may include the quality of the data input into the models and the assumptions underlying such models, which to varying degrees involve the exercise of judgment, as well as the possibility of errors in constructing or using the model.

The success of models relies on accurate market data inputs. If inaccurate market data is entered into a model, the resulting information will be incorrect. In addition, the models used may be predictive in nature and such models may result in an incorrect assessment of future events. The models evaluate securities or securities markets based on certain assumptions concerning the interplay of market factors. The markets or the prices of individual securities may be affected by factors not foreseen in developing the models. The performance of the investment models may be impacted by software or other technology malfunctions, human error, programming inaccuracies, and other similar circumstances. In addition, when relying on a quantitative model and/or data supplied by third parties, PIMCO or the Sub-Adviser may have less insight into the construction, coding or testing of the third-party model or data, and PIMCO or the Sub-Adviser will be exposed to systems, cyber security and other risks associated with the third party that provides the model or data.

The use of models can be complex and involves financial, economic, econometric and statistical theories, research and modeling; and the results of those processes must then be translated into computer code. Although PIMCO or the Sub-Adviser seeks to hire individuals and/or third parties, as applicable, skilled in each of these functions and to provide appropriate levels of oversight, the complexity of the individual tasks, the difficulty of integrating such tasks, and the limited ability to perform “real world” testing of a model’s end product raises the chances that a finished model may contain an error; one or more of such errors could adversely affect a Fund’s performance.

Short Exposure Risk

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus 79

PIMCO Funds

(i.e., premiums and interest) paid to the broker-dealer to borrow securities. Therefore, short sales involve the risk that losses may be exaggerated, potentially losing more money than the actual cost of the investment. By contrast, a loss on a long position arises from decreases in the value of the security and is limited by the fact that a security’s value cannot decrease below zero.

With regard to the PIMCO StocksPLUS® Short Fund, because the Fund invests primarily in short positions, gains and losses in the Fund will primarily be taxable as short-term gains or losses. However, a portion of the gains or losses from certain types of derivatives, including futures contracts on broad-based stock indexes in which the Fund may choose to invest, will be taxable as long-term gains or losses.

Value Investing Risk

Value investing attempts to identify companies that are believed to be undervalued. Value stocks typically have prices that are low relative to factors such as the company’s earnings, cash flow or dividends. A value stock may decrease in price or may not increase in price as anticipated by PIMCO or the Sub-Adviser, as applicable, if it continues to be undervalued by the market or the factors that the portfolio manager believes will cause the stock price to increase do not occur. A value investing style may perform better or worse than equity portfolios that focus on growth stocks or that have a broader investment style.

Inverse Correlation and Compounding Risk

The PIMCO StocksPLUS® Short Fund will generally benefit when the value of the Fund’s associated index is declining and will generally not perform well when the index is flat or rising, a result that is different from traditional mutual funds. However, the Fund is neither designed nor expected to produce returns which replicate the inverse of the performance of its associated index, and the degree of variation could be substantial, particularly over longer periods. The value of each Fund’s derivatives short positions generally will move in the opposite direction from the value of the Fund’s associated index every day. Accordingly, for periods greater than one day, the effect of compounding may result in the performance of these derivatives positions (and the Fund’s performance attributable to those positions) to be either greater than or less than the inverse of the index performance for such periods, and the extent of the variation could be substantial due to market volatility and other factors. In addition, the results of PIMCO’s active management of the Fund, including the combination of income and capital gains or losses derived from the Fixed Income Instruments held by the Fund and the ability of the Fund to reduce or limit short exposure, may result in an imperfect inverse correlation between the performance of the Fund’s associated index and the performance of the Fund. Further, there are a number of other reasons why changes in the value of derivatives positions may not correlate exactly (either positively or inversely) with an index or which may otherwise prevent a mutual fund or its positions from achieving such correlation. See “Derivatives Risk.” For PIMCO StocksPLUS® Short Fund, this is due, in part, to the possibility that its commodity derivatives positions may have different roll dates, reset dates or contract months than those specified in a particular commodity index.

PIMCO Funds

Fee Waiver Agreement

PIMCO has contractually agreed, through July 31, 2026, to waive its supervisory and administrative fee for I-3 shares by 0.05% of the average daily net assets attributable to I-3 shares of each of PIMCO RAE PLUS Fund, PIMCO StocksPLUS® Absolute Return Fund, PIMCO StocksPLUS® Fund, PIMCO StocksPLUS® International Fund (U.S . Dollar-Hedged), PIMCO StocksPLUS® International Fund (Unhedged), PIMCO StocksPLUS® Short Fund and PIMCO StocksPLUS® Small Fund. This Fee Waiver Agreement will automatically renew for one-year terms unless PIMCO provides written notice to the Trust at least 30 days prior to the end of the then current term.

The PIMCO StocksPLUS® Long Duration Fund (the “Investing Fund”) may invest in other series of the Trust, series of PIMCO ETF Trust, and series of PIMCO Equity Series (each series, an “Underlying Fund,” and collectively, the “Underlying Funds”). The Investing Fund pays advisory and supervisory and administrative fees directly to PIMCO at the annual rates stated above, based on the average daily net assets attributable in the aggregate to the Investing Fund's shares. The Investing Fund also indirectly pays its proportionate share of the advisory fees, supervisory and administrative fees and management fees charged by PIMCO to the Underlying Funds in which the Fund invests (collectively, the “Underlying PIMCO Fund Fees”). With respect to the Investing Fund, PIMCO has contractually agreed, through July 31, 2026, to waive first, the advisory fee and, second, to the extent necessary, the supervisory and administrative fee it receives from the Investing Fund in an amount equal to the Underlying PIMCO Fund Fees indirectly incurred by the Investing Fund in connection with its investments in Underlying Funds up to a maximum waived amount that is equal to the Investing Fund's aggregate advisory fee and supervisory fee. This waiver will automatically renew for one-year terms unless PIMCO provides written notice to the Trust at least 30 days prior to the end of the then current term.

Combined Purchase Privilege and Right of Accumulation (Breakpoints). A Qualifying Investor (as defined below) may qualify for a reduced sales charge on Class A shares by combining concurrent purchases of the Class A shares of one or more Eligible Funds into a single purchase (the “Combined Purchase Privilege”). In addition, a Qualifying Investor may obtain a reduced sales charge on Class A shares by adding the purchase value of Class A shares of an Eligible Fund with the current aggregate NAV of all Class A, Class C and Class C-2 shares of any Eligible Fund held by accounts for the benefit of such Qualifying Investor (the “Right of Accumulation” or “Cumulative Quantity Discount”).

The term “Qualifying Investor” refers to:

a trustee or other fiduciary for a single trust (except family trusts* noted above), estate or fiduciary account although more than one beneficiary may be involved; or

an employee benefit plan of a single employer.

Please see the SAI for details and for restrictions applicable to shares held by certain employer-sponsored benefit programs.

Letter of Intent. Investors may also obtain a reduced sales charge on purchases of Class A shares by means of a written Letter of Intent which expresses intent to invest not less than $50,000 (or $100,000 in the case of those Funds with an initial sales charge breakpoint at $100,000) within a period of 13 months in Class A shares of any Eligible Fund(s). The maximum intended investment allowable in a Letter of Intent is $1,000,000. Each purchase of shares under a Letter of Intent will be made at the public offering price or prices applicable at the time of such purchase to a single purchase of the dollar amount indicated in the Letter of Intent. The value of the investor’s account(s) linked to a Letter of Intent will be included at the start date of the Letter of Intent. A Letter of Intent is not a binding obligation to purchase the full amount indicated. Shares purchased with the first 5% of the amount indicated in the Letter of Intent will be held in escrow (while remaining registered in your name) to secure payment of the higher sales charges applicable to the shares actually purchased in the event the full intended amount is not purchased. Redemptions during the LOI period will not count against the shareholder, but a CDSC may be charged for LOIs of $1,000,000.

that the investor is eligible for these reductions, the Fund will be unable to ensure that the reduction is applied to the investor’s account. An investor may have to provide certain information or records to his or her financial firm or the Fund to verify the investor’s eligibility for breakpoint discounts or sales charge waivers. An investor may be asked to provide information or records, including account statements, regarding shares of the Funds or other Eligible Funds held in:

■

all of the investor’s accounts held directly with the Trust or through a financial firm;

■

any account of the investor at another financial firm; and

■

accounts of Qualifying Investors, at any financial firm.

Contingent Deferred Sales Charges

Class A Shares

Unless you are eligible for a waiver, if you purchase $1,000,000 or more of Class A shares (and, thus, pay no initial sales charge) of a Fund, you will be subject to a 1% CDSC if you sell (redeem) your Class A shares within 12 months of their purchase.

Class C Shares

Years Since Purchase Payment was Made	Percentage Contingent Deferred Sales Charge
First	1 %
Thereafter	0 %

How CDSCs will be Calculated

The following rules apply under the method for calculating CDSCs:

■

Shares acquired through the reinvestment of dividends or capital gains distributions will be redeemed first and will not be subject to any CDSC.

■

CDSCs will be deducted from the proceeds of your redemption, not from amounts remaining in your account.

■

In determining whether a CDSC is payable, it is assumed that you will redeem first the lot of shares which will incur the lowest CDSC.

For example, the following illustrates the operation of the Class C CDSC:

■

Reductions and Waivers of Initial Sales Charges and CDSCs

The initial sales charges on Class A shares and the CDSCs on Class A and Class C shares may be reduced or waived under certain purchase arrangements and for certain categories of investors. See “Sales at Net Asset Value” above for information on Class A initial sales charges. CDSCs on Class A and Class C shares may be reduced or waived in certain circumstances, including for: redemptions in connection with certain distributions, withdrawals or returns of excess contributions from or exchanges to certain retirement plan accounts or IRAs; certain redemptions following death or disability; certain redemptions of shares subject to an Automatic Withdrawal Plan; redemptions by current or former Trustees, officers and employees of the Trust or PIMCO Equity Series, and by directors, officers and current or former employees of the Distributor, PIMCO, or certain of PIMCO’s affiliates if the account was established while employed; redemptions effected by a Fund as a result of an account not satisfying applicable minimum account size requirements; redemptions in connection with certain reorganizations and liquidations; redemptions by certain shareholders demonstrating hardship and/or there will be minimal cost borne by the Distributor associated with the redemption; certain intra-fund exchanges of Class A shares for Institutional Class shares; redemptions by retirement plans that are maintained or sponsored by financial firms, provided the financial firms have entered into an agreement with the Distributor related to such plans; redemptions by a shareholder who is a participant making periodic purchases through certain employer sponsored retirement plans that are clients of a financial firm with which the Distributor has an agreement with respect to such purchases; and redemptions effected by trustees or other

fiduciaries who have purchased shares for certain employer-sponsored plans. In addition, investors will not be subject to CDSCs for certain transactions where the Distributor did not pay at the time of purchase the amount it normally would have to the broker-dealer. What qualifies as “hardship” and “minimal cost” borne by the Distributor will be determined in the sole discretion of the Distributor. The Distributor follows how Internal Revenue Service regulations classify “hardship” – a financial hardship may occur when an individual has an immediate and heavy financial need and the money to be withdrawn from the shareholder’s account is necessary to meet that need. The Distributor generally determines a CDSC waiver or reduction to be of “minimal cost” where the shareholder can demonstrate that the redemption triggering the CDSC was inadvertently executed during the period subject to the CDSC and substantially all of the CDSC period has lapsed. Please see the SAI for additional details.

Shares Purchased or Held Through Financial Firms

No Sales Charges — Class R Shares

The Funds do not impose any sales charges or other fees on purchases, redemptions or exchanges of Class R shares. Class R shares generally are available only to 401(k) plans, 457 plans, employer sponsored 403(b) plans, profit sharing and money purchase pension plans, defined benefit plans, non-qualified deferred compensation plans, health care benefit funding plans and other specified benefit plans and accounts whereby the plan or the plan’s financial firm has an agreement with the Distributor or PIMCO Funds to utilize Class R shares in certain investment products or programs (collectively, “specified benefit plans”). In addition, Class R shares also are generally available only to specified benefit plans where Class R shares are held on the books of the Funds through omnibus accounts (either at the benefit plan level or at the level of the plan’s financial firm). Class R shares are not available to retail or non-specified benefit plan accounts, traditional and Roth IRAs (except through certain omnibus accounts), Coverdell Education Savings Accounts, SEPs, SAR-SEPs, SIMPLE IRAs, or individual 403(b) plans.

alter the amounts contributed to the plan, or change how contributions are allocated among investment options in accordance with the plan’s specific provisions. The plan administrator or employee benefits office should be consulted for details. For questions about participant accounts, participants should contact their employee benefits office, the plan administrator, or the organization that provides recordkeeping services for the plan. In most cases, the Trust’s transfer agent will have no information with respect to or control over accounts of specific Class R shareholders, and a shareholder may obtain information about accounts only through the specified benefit plan.

These fees and expenses could reduce an investment return in Class R shares. For further information on Class R shares and related items, please refer to the SAI.

No Sales Charges — Institutional Class, I-2 and I-3 Shares

The Funds do not impose any sales charges or other fees on purchases, redemptions or exchanges of Institutional Class, I-2 or I-3 shares. Only certain investors are eligible to purchase these share classes. Your financial professional or financial firm can help you determine if you are eligible to purchase Institutional Class, I-2 or I-3 shares. You can also call 888.87.PIMCO.

An investor transacting in Institutional Class, I-2 or I-3 shares may be required to pay a commission to a broker or other financial firm. Other share classes of the Funds that have different fees and expenses are available.

I-2 or I-3 shares only if the plan or program for which the shares are being acquired will maintain an omnibus or pooled account for each Fund and will not require a Fund to pay any type of administrative payment per participant account to any third party.

Distribution and Servicing (12b-1) Plans

Class A	Servicing Fee	Distribution Fee
All Funds	0.25 %	0.00 %

Class C	Servicing Fee	Distribution Fee
PIMCO StocksPLUS® Fund	0.25 %	0.50 %
All other Funds	0.25 %	0.75 %

Class R	Servicing Fee	Distribution Fee
All Funds	0.25 %	0.25 %

Because distribution fees are paid out of the Fund’s assets on an ongoing basis, over time these fees will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than other types of sales charges, such as sales charges that are deducted at the time of investment. Therefore, although Class C and Class R shares do not pay initial sales charges, the distribution fees payable on Class C and Class R shares may, over time, cost you more than the initial sales charge imposed on Class A shares.

PIMCO Funds

These financial firms may impose additional or different conditions than the Funds on purchases, redemptions or exchanges of shares. They may also independently establish and charge their customers or program participants transaction fees, account fees and other amounts in connection with purchases, redemptions and exchanges of shares in addition to any fees imposed by the Funds. These additional fees may vary and over time could increase the cost of an investment in the Funds and lower investment returns. Each financial firm is responsible for transmitting to its customers and program participants a schedule of any such fees and information regarding any additional or different conditions regarding purchases, redemptions and exchanges.

Shareholders who are customers of these financial firms or participants in programs serviced by them should contact the financial firm for information regarding these fees and conditions.

Other Payments to Financial Firms

financial firm’s relationship with PIMCO and/or its affiliates. The Distributor also makes payments to one or more financial firms based on the levels of advisory fees of the Funds.

The additional payments described above are made from PIMCO’s (or its affiliates’) own assets (and sometimes, therefore referred to as “revenue sharing”) pursuant to agreements with financial firms and do not change the price paid by investors for the purchase of a Fund’s shares or the amount a Fund will receive as proceeds from such sales. These payments may be made to financial firms (as selected by PIMCO) that have sold significant amounts of shares of the Funds or other PIMCO-sponsored funds. With respect to Class A and Class C shares (and, Class R shares, to the extent a financial firm has a written agreement to receive revenue sharing on Class R shares), except as described in the following paragraph, the level of payments made to a financial firm will vary and generally will not exceed in any billing period: (1) the sum of (a) 0.10% of gross sales of Class A and Class C shares (Class R shares, if applicable) of the Trust and PIMCO Equity Series by such financial firm; and (b) an annual rate of 0.03% of the assets attributable to that financial firm invested in Class A and Class C shares (Class R shares, if applicable) of the funds of the Trust and funds of PIMCO Equity Series (as determined by the contractual arrangement between the parties, which may, among other things, exclude certain assets from the calculation) (the “10/3 cap”); or (2) an annual rate of 0.05% of the assets attributable to that financial firm invested in Class A and Class C shares (Class R shares, if applicable) of the Funds and PIMCO Equity Series (as determined by the contractual arrangement between the parties, which may, among other things, exclude certain assets from the calculation) (the “5bp cap”). Only agreements entered into on or after April 1, 2021 will be eligible, in PIMCO’s discretion, for the 5bp cap. The determination of which limit applies will vary pursuant to the terms of each agreement. In certain cases, the payments are subject to minimum payment levels or vary based on the advisory fee or total expense ratio of the relevant Fund(s). In lieu of payments pursuant to the foregoing formula, PIMCO or its affiliates makes, in certain instances, payments of an agreed upon amount which normally will not exceed the amount that would have been payable pursuant to the formula.

Class A and Class C shares only. With respect to the Eligible Firms receiving marketing support payments with respect to I-2 shares pursuant to this paragraph, payments may be lower for particular funds of the Trust or funds of PIMCO Equity Series as compared to other funds of the Trust or funds of PIMCO Equity Series. “Eligible Assets” for purposes of this paragraph are all assets of Class A, Class C and I-2 shares of funds of the Trust and funds of PIMCO Equity Series attributable to such Eligible Firm less any such assets attributable to the Eligible Firm that the Eligible Firm instructs PIMCO in writing to exclude. Although these payments are made from PIMCO’s own assets, in some cases the levels of such payments may vary by Fund or share class in relation to advisory fees, total annual operating expenses or other payments made by the Fund or share class to PIMCO. These additional payments by PIMCO may be made to financial firms (as selected by PIMCO) that have sold significant amounts of shares of the Funds.

Event Support; Other Non-Cash Compensation; Charitable Contributions. In addition to the payments described above, PIMCO pays and/or reimburses, at its own expense, financial firms’ sponsorship and/or attendance at conferences, seminars or informational meetings (which may include events held through video technology, to the extent permitted by applicable regulation) (“event support”), provides financial firms or their personnel with occasional tickets to events or other entertainment (which, in some instances, is held virtually), meals and small gifts and pays or provides reimbursement for reasonable travel and lodging expenses for attendees of PIMCO educational events (“other non-cash compensation”), and makes charitable contributions to valid charitable organizations at the request of financial firms (“charitable contributions”) to the extent permitted by applicable law, rules and regulations.

the sale or recommendation of Fund shares to their clients. PIMCO may also provide (or compensate consultants or other third parties to provide) other relevant training and education to a financial firm’s financial professionals and other personnel.

Platform Support; Consultant Services. PIMCO also may make payments or reimbursements to financial firms or their affiliated companies, which may be used for their platform development, maintenance, improvement and/or the availability of services including, but not limited to, platform education and communications, relationship management support, development to support new or changing products, eligibility for inclusion on sample fund line-ups, trading or order taking platforms and related infrastructure/technology and/or legal, risk management and regulatory compliance infrastructure in support of investment-related products, programs and services (collectively, “platform support”). Subject to applicable law, PIMCO and its affiliates may also provide investment advisory services to financial firms and their affiliates and may execute brokerage transactions on behalf of the Funds with such financial firms’ affiliates. These financial firms or their affiliates may, in the ordinary course of their financial firm business, recommend that their clients utilize PIMCO’s investment advisory services or invest in the Funds or in other products sponsored or distributed by PIMCO or its affiliates. Some platform support arrangements also may entitle the Distributor or PIMCO to ancillary benefits such as reduced fees to attend a financial firm’s event or conference or elimination of one-time setup fees, such as CUSIP charges that financial firms otherwise may charge. In addition, PIMCO may pay investment consultants or their affiliated companies for certain services including technology, operations, tax, or audit consulting services and may pay such firms for PIMCO’s attendance at investment forums sponsored by such firms (collectively, “consultant services”).

Redeeming Shares — Additional Information

shares have recently been purchased by personal check (Class A, Class C, or Class R shareholders only), redemption proceeds may be withheld until the check has been collected, which may take up to 10 calendar days. To avoid such withholding, investors in Class A, Class C, or Class R shares should purchase shares by certified or bank check or by wire transfer.

Retirement plan sponsors, participant recordkeeping organizations and other financial firms may also impose their own restrictions, limitations or fees in connection with transactions in the Funds’ shares, which may be stricter than those described in this section. You should contact your plan sponsor, recordkeeper or financial intermediary for more information on any additional restrictions, limitations or fees that are imposed in connection with transactions in Fund shares.

In order to meet redemption requests, the Funds typically expect to use a combination of sales of portfolio assets, holdings of cash and cash equivalents (including cash flows into Funds) and financing transactions (such as reverse repurchase agreements). These methods of meeting redemption requests are expected to be used regularly. The Funds reserve the right to use other types of borrowings and interfund lending. The use of borrowings (such as a line of credit) and interfund lending in order to meet redemption requests is typically expected to be used only during stressed market conditions, if at all. See “Characteristics and Risks of Securities and Investment Techniques—Reverse Repurchase Agreements, Dollar Rolls and Other Borrowings” and the SAI for more information. The Funds' use of redemptions in kind is discussed below.

Signature Validation

When a signature validation is called for, a Medallion signature guarantee or Signature validation program (SVP) stamp may be required. A Medallion signature guarantee is intended to provide signature validation for transactions considered financial in nature, and an SVP stamp is intended to provide signature validation for transactions non-financial in nature. A Medallion signature guarantee or SVP stamp may be obtained from a domestic bank or trust company, broker, dealer, clearing agency, savings association or other financial institution which is participating in a Medallion program or Signature validation program recognized by the Securities Transfer Association. When a Medallion signature guarantee or SVP stamp is required, signature validations from financial institutions which are not participating in one of these programs will not be accepted. Please note that financial institutions participating in a recognized Medallion program or providing SVP stamps may still be ineligible to provide a signature validation for transactions of greater than a specified dollar amount. The Trust may change the signature validation requirements from time to time upon notice to shareholders, which may be given by means of a new or supplemented prospectus. Shareholders should contact the Transfer Agent for additional details regarding the Funds' signature validation requirements. In addition, PIMCO or the Transfer Agent may reject a Medallion signature guarantee or SVP stamp.

Acceptance and Timing of Purchase Orders, Redemption Orders and Share Price Calculations

Juneteenth National Independence Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. If the NYSE is closed due to weather or other extenuating circumstances on a day it would typically be open for business, the Trust reserves the right to treat such day as a Business Day and accept purchase and redemption orders and calculate a Fund’s NAV as of the normally scheduled close of regular trading on the NYSE or such other time that the Fund may determine, in accordance with applicable law. A Fund reserves the right to close if the primary trading markets of the Fund’s portfolio instruments are closed and the Fund’s management believes that there is not an adequate market to meet purchase, redemption or exchange requests. On any business day when the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (“SIFMA”) recommends that the securities markets close trading early or when the NYSE closes earlier than scheduled, each Fund may (i) close trading early (in which the time as of which NAV is calculated would be advanced and, therefore, also the time by which purchase and redemption orders must be received in order to receive that day’s NAV would be advanced) or (ii) accept purchase and redemption orders until, and calculate its NAV as of, the normally scheduled close of regular trading on the NYSE for that day. Purchase orders will be accepted only on days which the Trust is open for business.

Under these and other unusual circumstances, the Trust may suspend redemptions or postpone payment for more than seven days, as permitted by law.

Abusive Trading Practices

To discourage excessive, short-term trading and other abusive trading strategies, the Board of Trustees of the Trust has adopted policies and procedures reasonably designed to detect and prevent short-term trading activity that may be harmful to a Fund and its shareholders. Such activities may have a detrimental effect on a Fund and its shareholders. For example, depending upon various factors such as the size of a Fund and the amount of its assets maintained in cash, short-term or excessive trading by Fund shareholders may interfere with the efficient management of the Fund's investments, increase transaction costs and taxes, and may harm the performance of the Fund and its shareholders.

price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5, the Board of Trustees has designated PIMCO as the valuation designee (“Valuation Designee”) for each Fund to perform the fair value determination relating to all Fund investments. PIMCO may carry out its designated responsibilities as Valuation Designee through various teams and committees. The Valuation Designee's policies and procedures govern the Valuation Designee's selection and application of methodologies for determining and calculating the fair value of Fund investments. The Valuation Designee may value Fund portfolio securities for which market quotations are not readily available and other Fund assets utilizing inputs from pricing services, quotation reporting systems, valuation agents and other third-party sources (together, “Pricing Sources”). Domestic and foreign (non-U.S.) fixed income securities, non-exchange traded derivatives, and equity options are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or Pricing Sources using data reflecting the earlier closing of the principal markets for those securities. Prices obtained from Pricing Sources may be based on, among other things, information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Exchange-traded options, except equity options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange. Swap agreements are valued on the basis of bid quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or market-based prices supplied by Pricing Sources. With respect to any portion of a Fund’s assets that are invested in one or more open-end management investment companies (other than exchange-traded funds), a Fund’s NAV will be calculated based upon the NAVs of such investments.

(non-U.S.) equity securities on days when the Trust is not open for business, which may result in a Fund’s portfolio investments being affected when you are unable to buy or sell shares.

Fair valuation may require subjective determinations about the value of a security. While the Trust’s and Valuation Designee’s policies and procedures are intended to result in a calculation of a Fund’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing, the Trust cannot ensure that fair values accurately reflect the price that a Fund could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing (for instance, in a forced or distressed sale). The prices used by a Fund may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold. A Funds’ use of fair valuation may also help to deter “stale price arbitrage” as discussed above under “Abusive Trading Practices.”

Fund Distributions

Each Fund distributes substantially all of its net investment income to shareholders in the form of dividends. Dividends paid by each Fund with respect to each class of shares are calculated in the same manner and at the same time, but dividends on different classes of shares may be different as a result of the service and/or distribution fees applicable to certain classes of shares. Each Fund intends to declare income dividends and distribute them quarterly to shareholders of record.

Shares Purchased by Wire: Dividends will begin to accrue the business day following the day the order is effected or such later date as agreed with the Trust.

Shares Purchased by Check or ACH: The order will be effected at that day’s NAV, but dividends will not begin to accrue until the following business day.

A Class A, Class C, or Class R shareholder may choose from the following distribution options:

■

Reinvest all distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at NAV. You should contact your financial firm (if shares are held through a financial firm) or the Fund’s Transfer Agent (if shares are held through a direct account) for details. You do not pay any sales charges on shares received through the reinvestment of Fund distributions. This will be done unless you elect another option.

■

The financial service firm may offer additional distribution reinvestment programs or options. Please contact the firm for details.

Tax Consequences

Each Fund will distribute substantially all of its income and gains to its shareholders every year, and shareholders will be taxed on distributions they receive.

■

federal income tax purposes, taxable Fund distributions will be taxable to the shareholder as either ordinary income or capital gains.

The tax treatment of income, gains and losses attributable to foreign currencies (and derivatives on such currencies), and various other special tax rules applicable to certain financial transactions and instruments could affect the amount, timing and character of a Fund’s distributions. In some cases, these tax rules could also result in a retroactive change in the tax character of prior distributions and may also possibly cause all, or a portion, of prior distributions to be reclassified as returns of capital for tax purposes. See “Returns of Capital” below.

■

Medicare Tax. An additional 3.8% Medicare tax is imposed on certain net investment income (including ordinary dividends and

■

Important Tax Reporting Considerations. Your financial intermediary or a Fund (if you hold your shares in a Fund direct account) will report gains and losses realized on redemptions of shares for shareholders who are individuals and S corporations purchased after January 1, 2012 to the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”). This information will also be reported to you on Form 1099- B and the IRS each year. In calculating the gain or loss on redemptions of shares, the average cost method will be used to determine the cost basis of Fund shares purchased after January 1, 2012 unless you instruct the Fund in writing that you want to use another available method for cost basis reporting (for example, First In, First Out (FIFO), Last In, First Out (LIFO), Specific Lot Identification (SLID) or High Cost, First Out (HIFO)). If you designate SLID as your cost basis method, you will also need to designate a secondary cost basis method (Secondary Method). If a Secondary Method is not provided, the Funds will designate FIFO as the Secondary Method and will use the Secondary Method with respect to automatic withdrawals made after January 1, 2012 or conducted via an automatic withdrawal plan. If a shareholder is a corporation and has not instructed the Fund in its Account Application or by written instruction that it is a C corporation, the Fund will treat the shareholder as an S corporation and file a Form 1099-B.

Although in some cases the Fund may be able to apply for a refund of a portion of such taxes, the ability to successfully obtain such a refund may be uncertain.

Characteristics and Risks of Securities and Investment Techniques

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus 105

transactions may adversely impact a Fund’s portfolio management. For example, a Fund may be forced to sell a comparatively large portion of its portfolio to meet significant shareholder redemptions, or hold a comparatively large portion of its portfolio in cash due to significant shareholder purchases, in each case when the Fund otherwise would not seek to do so. These shareholder transactions may cause Funds to make investment decisions at inopportune times or prices or miss attractive investment opportunities. Such transactions may also increase a Fund’s transaction costs, accelerate the realization of taxable income if such sales of investments resulted in gains, cause the Fund to make taxable distributions to its non-redeeming shareholders to a greater extent than the Fund otherwise would have, or otherwise cause a Fund to perform differently than intended. Similarly, significant shareholder purchases may adversely affect a Fund’s performance to the extent the Fund is delayed in investing new cash and, as a result, holds a proportionally larger cash position than under ordinary circumstances and such impact may be heightened in funds of funds. While such risks may apply to Funds of any size, these risks are heightened in Funds with fewer assets under management. In addition, new Funds may not be able to fully implement their investment strategy immediately upon commencing investment operations, which could reduce investment performance.

the PIMCO-Advised Investing Funds and Affiliated Funds of Funds could, under certain circumstances, negatively impact the Underlying PIMCO Funds, including the Funds, with respect to the expenses and investment performance of the Underlying PIMCO Funds. For instance, large purchases or redemptions of shares of an Underlying PIMCO Fund by the PIMCO Funds of Funds, the PIMCO-Advised Investing Funds and Affiliated Funds of Funds, whether as part of a reallocation or rebalancing strategy or otherwise, may result in the Underlying PIMCO Fund having to sell securities or invest cash when it otherwise would not do so. Such transactions could increase an Underlying PIMCO Fund’s transaction costs and accelerate the realization of taxable income if sales of securities resulted in gains. Adverse impacts to an Underlying PIMCO Fund, such as these examples, may be exacerbated when the Underlying PIMCO Fund is invested in by another fund, such as a PIMCO-Advised Investing Fund, that itself is invested in by other funds. Such structures could make asset flows, performance and other factors more volatile at the Underlying PIMCO Fund level. Additionally, as the PIMCO Funds of Funds and Affiliated Funds of Funds may invest substantially all or a significant portion of their assets in Underlying PIMCO Funds, and the PIMCO-Advised Investing Funds may invest a portion of their assets in Underlying PIMCO Funds, the Underlying PIMCO Funds may not acquire securities of other registered open-end investment companies in reliance on Section 12(d)(1)(F) or Section 12(d)(1)(G) of the 1940 Act, thus limiting the Underlying PIMCO Funds investment flexibility.

Investment Selection

In selecting investments for the PIMCO RAE Global ex-US Fund and PIMCO RAE Global Fund, the Sub-Adviser selects direct or indirect (through funds) securities from a broad universe of companies, which satisfy certain liquidity and capacity requirements. The Sub-Adviser uses the RAE® methodology for portfolio construction. The RAE® methodology is a rules-based model that selects stocks using quantitative signals that indicate higher expected returns, e.g., value, quality and momentum. The model then weights selected stocks by using their fundamental measures of company size, e.g., sales, cash flow, dividends and book value. Actual stock positions, which drift apart from target weights as market prices change, are rebalanced to target weights periodically. The RAE® methodology’s systematic portfolio rebalancing reflects a value orientation. Portfolio managers do not have discretion with respect to the allocations determined by the RAE® methodology. The RAE® methodology is not updated according to any predetermined schedule. In selecting investments for a Fund, PIMCO may use proprietary quantitative models that are developed and maintained by PIMCO, and which are subject to change over time without notice in PIMCO's discretion. The proprietary quantitative

106 Prospectus | PIMCO Funds

Prospectus

models used by PIMCO may not adequately take into account certain factors, may contain design flaws or faulty assumptions, and may rely on incomplete or inaccurate data inputs, any of which may result in a decline in the value of an investment in a Fund. There is no guarantee that PIMCO's use of a proprietary quantitative model will produce the desired result.

In selecting investments for the PIMCO RAE Emerging Markets Fund, PIMCO RAE International Fund, PIMCO RAE US Fund and PIMCO RAE US Small Fund and, with respect to the equity portion of its portfolio, the PIMCO Dividend and Income Fund, the Sub-Adviser selects direct from a broad universe of companies, which satisfy certain liquidity and capacity requirements. For the PIMCO RAE Emerging Markets Fund, PIMCO RAE International Fund, PIMCO RAE US Fund and PIMCO RAE US Small Fund, the Sub-Adviser uses the RAE® methodology for portfolio construction and, for the equity portion of the PIMCO Dividend and Income Fund, the Sub-Adviser uses the RAE® Income methodology for portfolio construction. The RAE® methodology is a rules-based model that selects stocks using quantitative signals that indicate higher expected returns, e.g., value, quality, and momentum and the RAE® Income methodology is a rules-based model that selects stocks using quantitative signals that indicate higher expected returns, e.g., yield, quality, and momentum. Each model then weights selected stocks by using their fundamental measures of company size, e.g., sales, cash flow, dividends and book value. With respect to the PIMCO RAE US Fund, the Sub-Adviser applies the RAE® methodology to the large and mid-sized U.S. companies as determined by cumulative fundamental measures of company size. With respect to the PIMCO RAE US Small Fund, the Sub-Adviser applies the RAE® methodology to small-sized U.S. companies determined by percentage of cumulative fundamental measures of company size. The fundamental weights of U.S. companies are sorted in descending order where the top cumulative 86% weights are eligible as large and mid-sized companies and the remaining companies are eligible as small-sized companies. Actual stock positions, which drift apart from target weights as market prices change, are rebalanced to target weights periodically. The RAE® methodology’s systematic portfolio rebalancing reflects a value orientation. Portfolio managers do not have discretion with respect to the allocations determined by the RAE® methodology. The RAE® methodology is not updated according to any predetermined schedule.

may have less credit risk than U.S. Government Securities not supported by the full faith and credit of the United States. Such other types of U.S. Government Securities are: (1) supported by the ability of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury; (2) supported only by the credit of the issuing agency, instrumentality or government-sponsored corporation; or (3) supported by the United States in some other way. These securities may be subject to greater credit risk. U.S. Government Securities include zero coupon securities, which do not distribute interest on a current basis and tend to be subject to greater market risk than interest-paying securities of similar maturities. The U.S. Government Securities in which a Fund may invest may pay fixed, floating, variable, or adjustable interest rates.

Municipal Bonds

Municipal Bonds are generally issued by states, territories, possessions and local governments and their agencies, authorities and other instrumentalities. Municipal Bonds are subject to interest rate, credit and market risk, uncertainties related to the tax status of a Municipal Bond or the rights of investors invested in these securities. The ability of an issuer to make payments could be affected by litigation, legislation or other political events or the bankruptcy of the issuer. In addition, imbalances in supply and demand in the municipal market may result in a deterioration of liquidity and a lack of price transparency in the market. At certain times, this may affect pricing, execution and transaction costs associated with a particular trade. The secondary market for municipal bonds also tends to be less well-developed and less liquid than many other securities markets, which may adversely affect the ability of a Fund to sell its municipal bonds at attractive prices or value municipal bonds. The value of certain municipal securities, in particular general obligation debt, may also be adversely affected by rising health care costs, increasing unfunded pension liabilities, changes in accounting standards and by the phasing out of federal programs providing financial support. Lower rated Municipal Bonds are subject to greater credit and market risk than higher quality Municipal Bonds. Municipal Bonds may also have exposure to potential physical risks resulting from climate change, including extreme weather, flooding and

fires. Climate risks, if they materialize, can adversely impact a municipal issuer’s financial plans in current or future years including, for example, the physical impairment of a facility or other source generating revenues backing a municipal issuer’s revenue bonds. As a result, the impact of climate risks could adversely impact the value of a Fund’s Municipal Bond investments. The types of Municipal Bonds in which a Fund may invest include municipal lease obligations, municipal general obligation bonds, municipal essential service revenue bonds, municipal cash equivalents, loans, mortgages, pre-refunded and escrowed to maturity Municipal Bonds and other debt instruments and pools of any of the foregoing. A Fund may also invest in industrial development bonds, which are Municipal Bonds issued by a government agency on behalf of a private sector company and, in most cases, are not backed by the credit of the issuing municipality and may therefore involve more risk. A Fund may also invest in securities issued by entities whose underlying assets are Municipal Bonds.

Certain Funds may invest in trust certificates issued in tender option bond programs. In these programs, a trust typically issues two classes of certificates and uses the proceeds to purchase municipal securities having relatively long maturities and bearing interest at a fixed interest rate substantially higher than prevailing short-term tax-exempt rates. There is a risk that a Fund investing in a tender option bond program will not be considered the owner of a tender option bond for federal income tax purposes, and thus will not be entitled to treat such interest as exempt from federal income tax. Certain tender option bonds may be illiquid or may become illiquid as a result of, among other things, a credit rating downgrade, a payment default or a disqualification from tax-exempt status.

Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities

The value of some mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose a Fund to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. When interest rates rise, the value of a mortgage-related security generally will decline; however, when interest rates are declining, the value of mortgage-related securities with prepayment features may not increase as much as other fixed income securities. The rate of prepayments on underlying mortgages will affect the price and volatility of a mortgage-related security, and may shorten or extend the effective maturity of the security beyond what was anticipated at the time of purchase. If unanticipated rates of prepayment on underlying mortgages increase the effective maturity of a mortgage-related security, the volatility of the security can be expected to increase. See “Extension Risk” and “Prepayment Risk” below. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.

it would otherwise have received at a given time at the higher prevailing interest rates.

■

One type of SMBS has one class receiving all of the interest from the mortgage assets (the interest-only, or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only, or “PO” class). The yield to maturity on an IO class is extremely sensitive to the rate of principal payments (including prepayments) on the underlying mortgage assets, and a rapid rate of principal payments may have a material adverse effect on a Fund’s yield to maturity from these securities. Each Fund may invest up to 5% of its total assets in any combination of mortgage-related or other asset-backed IO, PO or inverse floater securities.

Each Fund may invest in each of collateralized bond obligations (“CBOs”), collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”), other collateralized debt obligations (“CDOs”) and other similarly structured securities. CBOs, CLOs and other CDOs are types of asset-backed securities. A CBO is a trust which is backed by a diversified pool of high-risk, below investment grade fixed income securities. A CLO is a trust typically collateralized by a pool of loans, which may include, among others, domestic and foreign senior secured loans, senior unsecured loans, and subordinate corporate loans, including loans that may be rated below investment grade or equivalent unrated loans. Other CDOs are trusts backed by other types of assets representing obligations of various parties. Certain Funds may invest in other asset-backed securities that have been offered to investors.

made to borrowers with limited means to make repayment. A level of risk exists for all loans, although, historically, the poorest performing loans have been those classified as subprime. Privately issued mortgage-related securities are not traded on an exchange and there may be a limited market for the securities, especially when there is a perceived weakness in the mortgage and real estate market sectors. Without an active trading market, mortgage-related securities held in a Fund’s portfolio may be particularly difficult to value because of the complexities involved in assessing the value of the underlying mortgage loans.

Loan Participations and Assignments

Reinvestment

Each Fund may be subject to the risk that the returns of a Fund will decline during periods of falling interest rates because a Fund may have to reinvest the proceeds from matured, traded or called debt obligations at interest rates below a Fund’s current earnings rate. For instance, when interest rates decline, an issuer of debt obligations may exercise an option to redeem securities prior to maturity, thereby forcing a Fund to invest in lower-yielding securities. A Fund also may choose to sell higher-yielding portfolio securities and to purchase lower-yielding securities to achieve greater portfolio diversification because a Fund’s portfolio managers believe the current holdings are overvalued or for other investment-related reasons. A decline in the returns received by a Fund from its investments is likely to have an adverse effect on a Fund’s NAV, yield and total return.

Volatility

Volatility measures the variability in the price of an investment over time. A higher volatility level signifies an investment’s value may fluctuate over a larger range within a short period of time, either up or down. A lower volatility level means an investment’s value is more likely to change within a narrower range, or less frequently, over time. The more volatile the portfolio holdings of a Fund, the less predictable the returns for a Fund. Higher volatility levels may indicate heightened risk of losses.

PIMCO’s use of investments in seeking to manage a Fund‘s volatility will be consistent with the Fund’s asset allocation guidelines. Although asset allocation cannot eliminate investment risk or losses, it may provide opportunities to manage a Fund’s volatility relative to the Fund’s target annualized volatility level.

High Yield Securities and Distressed Companies

Variable and Floating Rate Securities

Variable and floating rate securities are securities that pay interest at rates that adjust whenever a specified interest rate changes and/or that reset on predetermined dates (such as the last day of a month or a calendar quarter). In addition to senior loans, variable- and floating-rate instruments may include, without limit, instruments such as catastrophe and other event-linked bonds, bank capital securities, unsecured bank loans, corporate bonds, money market instruments and certain types of mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities. Each Fund may invest in floating rate debt instruments (“floaters”) and engage in credit spread trades. A credit spread trade is an investment position relating to a difference in the prices or interest rates of two bonds or other securities, in which the value of the investment position is determined by changes in the difference between the prices or interest rates as the case may be, of the respective securities. Variable and floating rate securities generally are less sensitive to interest rate changes but may decline in value if their interest rates do not rise as much, or as quickly, as interest rates in general. Conversely, floating rate securities will not generally increase in value if interest rates decline. The Funds may also invest in inverse floating rate debt instruments (“inverse floaters”). An inverse floater may exhibit greater price volatility than a fixed rate obligation of similar credit quality. Each Fund may invest up to 5% of its total assets in any combination of mortgage-related or other asset-backed IO, PO, or inverse floater securities. Additionally, the Fund may also invest, without limitation, in residual interest bonds. Residual interest bonds are a type of inverse floater. See “Municipal Bonds.”

Inflation-Indexed Bonds

TIPS may also be divided into individual zero-coupon instruments for each coupon or principal payment (known as “iSTRIPS”). An iSTRIP of the principal component of a TIPS issue will retain the embedded deflation floor that will allow the holder of the security to receive the greater of the original principal or inflation-adjusted principal value at maturity. iSTRIPS may be less liquid than conventional TIPS because they are a small component of the TIPS market.

the semi-annual coupon payment. As a result, the principal value of municipal inflation-indexed bonds and such corporate inflation-indexed bonds does not adjust according to the rate of inflation. At the same time, the value of municipal inflation-indexed securities and such corporate inflation indexed securities generally will not increase if the rate of inflation decreases. Because municipal inflation-indexed securities and corporate inflation-indexed securities are a small component of the municipal bond and corporate bond markets, respectively, they may be less liquid than conventional municipal and corporate bonds.

Event-Linked Exposure

Insurance-Linked and Other Instruments

investments, and the right to additional interest and/or dividend payments with respect to the investments, upon the occurrence of one or more trigger events, as defined within the terms of an investment. Trigger events may include natural or other perils of a specific size or magnitude that occur in a designated geographic region during a specified time period, and/or that involve losses or other metrics that exceed a specific amount. A Fund may also invest in insurance-linked instruments that are subject to “indemnity triggers.” An indemnity trigger is a mechanism where the payout to the investor is based on the actual losses incurred by the insurer and come into play when losses from a specified event exceed a designated level. Insurance-linked instruments subject to indemnity triggers are often regarded as being subject to potential moral hazard, since such insurance-linked investments are triggered by actual losses of the ceding sponsor and the ceding sponsor may have an incentive to take actions and/or risks that would have an adverse effect on a Fund. There is no way to accurately predict whether a trigger event will occur and, accordingly, insurance-linked instruments and similar investments carry significant risk. In addition to the specified trigger events, these types of investments may expose a Fund to other risks, including but not limited to issuer (credit) default, adverse regulatory or jurisdictional interpretations and adverse tax consequences. A Fund may gain exposure to reinsurance contracts (through insurance-linked securities, sidecars or otherwise). This may include exposure to “excess of loss” contracts, wherein liability arises only if and when losses exceed a specified amount, and proportional reinsurance, wherein a portion of the premiums and liabilities of the cedant associated with a specified business or a portfolio of insurance contracts are linked to a Fund’s investment. Investments linked to reinsurance transactions may involve significant insurance brokerage fees, fronting fees and other transaction costs. A series of major triggering events could cause the failure of a reinsurer. Similarly, to the extent a Fund invests in reinsurance-related securities for which a triggering event occurs, losses associated with such event will result in losses to a Fund and a series of major triggering events affecting a large portion of the reinsurance-related securities held by a Fund may result in substantial losses to a Fund. In addition, unexpected events such as natural disasters or terrorist attacks could lead to government intervention. Political, judicial and legal developments affecting the reinsurance industry could also create new and expanded theories of liability or regulatory or other requirements; such changes could have a material adverse effect on a Fund. In addition, the litigation environment in catastrophe-exposed states or regions could impact the frequency and severity of insurance claims, and litigation costs could decrease the value of the Fund's investment in products linked to reinsurance contracts. In recent years capital market participants have been increasingly active in the reinsurance market and markets for related risks. Increased competition could result in fewer submissions, lower premium rates and less favorable policy terms and conditions.

Convertible and Equity Securities

equity derivatives. Convertible securities are generally preferred securities and other securities, including fixed income securities and warrants, that are convertible into or exercisable for common stock at a stated price or rate. The price of a convertible security will normally vary in some proportion to changes in the price of the underlying common stock because of this conversion or exercise feature. However, the value of a convertible security may not increase or decrease as rapidly as the underlying common stock. A convertible security will normally also provide income and is subject to interest rate risk. Convertible securities may be lower-rated securities subject to greater levels of credit risk. A Fund may be forced to convert a security before it would otherwise choose, which may have an adverse effect on the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.

Preferred and other senior securities generally entitle the holder to receive, in preference to the holders of other securities such as common stocks, dividends and a fixed share of the proceeds resulting from a liquidation of the company. Preferred and other senior securities may pay fixed or adjustable rates of return. Preferred and other senior securities are subject to issuer-specific and market risks applicable generally to equity securities. In addition, a company’s preferred and other senior securities generally pay dividends only after the company makes required payments to holders of its bonds and other debt. For this reason, the value of preferred and other senior securities will usually react more strongly than bonds and other debt to actual or perceived changes in the company’s financial condition or prospects. In addition, preferred and other senior securities often have special redemption rights allowing issuers to redeem such securities at par earlier than scheduled. If these rights are exercised, a Fund may have to reinvest proceeds in less attractive securities.

Among other risks described in this Prospectus, the following issues are particularly associated with investments in preferred and other senior securities.

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus 113

■

Limited Voting Rights. Preferred and other senior securities generally do not have voting rights with respect to the issuer unless dividends have been in arrears for certain specified periods of time. In the future, preferred or other senior securities may be offered with features different from those described above, and as such, may entail different risks. Over longer periods of time, certain types of preferred or other senior securities may become more scarce or less liquid as a result of legislative changes. Such events may result in losses to a Fund as the prices of securities it holds may be negatively affected. Revisions to bank capital requirements by international regulatory bodies, to the extent they are adopted in the United States, may also negatively impact the market for certain preferred or senior securities.

While some countries or companies may be regarded as favorable investments, pure fixed income opportunities may be unattractive or limited due to insufficient supply, or legal or technical restrictions. In such cases, certain Funds may consider convertible securities or equity securities to gain exposure to such investments.

While certain Funds may generally invest in equity derivatives, such Funds may invest without limitation directly in equity securities, including common stocks, preferred securities, and convertible securities. When investing directly in equity securities, a Fund will not be limited to only those equity securities with any particular weighting in such Fund’s respective benchmark index, if any. Generally, the Funds may consider investing directly in equity securities when derivatives on the underlying securities appear to be overvalued.

Equity securities generally have greater price volatility than fixed income securities. The market price of equity securities owned by a Fund may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably. Equity securities may decline in value due to factors affecting equity securities markets generally or particular industries represented in those markets. The value of an equity security may also decline for a number of reasons that directly relate to the issuer, such as management performance, financial leverage and reduced demand for the issuer’s goods or services.

Foreign (Non-U.S.) Securities

Each Fund may invest in securities and instruments that are economically tied to foreign (non-U.S.) countries. PIMCO generally considers an instrument to be economically tied to a non-U.S. country if the issuer is a foreign (non-U.S.) government (or any political subdivision, agency, authority or instrumentality of such government), or if the issuer is organized under the laws of a non-U.S. country. A Fund’s investments in foreign (non-U.S.) securities may include American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), European Depositary Receipts (“EDRs”), Global Depositary Receipts (“GDRs”) and similar securities that represent interests in a non-U.S. company’s securities that have been deposited with a bank or trust and that trade on a U.S. exchange or over-the-counter. ADRs, EDRs and GDRs may be less liquid or may trade at a different price than the underlying securities of the issuer. In the case of money market instruments other than commercial paper and certificates of deposit, such instruments will be considered economically tied to a non-U.S. country if the issuer of such money market instrument is organized under the laws of a non-U.S. country. In the case of commercial paper and certificates of deposit, such instruments will be considered economically tied to a non-U.S. country if the “country of exposure” of such instrument is a non-U.S. country, as determined by the criteria set forth below. With respect to derivative instruments, PIMCO generally considers such instruments to be economically tied to non-U.S. countries if the underlying assets of the derivative instrument, or a substantial portion of the components of the index to which the derivative instrument is exposed, are: (i) foreign currencies (or baskets or indexes of such currencies); (ii) instruments or securities that are issued by foreign governments; or (iii) instruments or securities that are issued by issuers organized under the laws of a non-U.S. country (or if the underlying assets are money market instruments other than commercial paper and certificates of deposit, if the issuer of such money market instrument is organized under the laws of a non-U.S. country or, in the case of underlying assets that are commercial paper or certificates of deposit, if the “country of exposure” of such money market instrument is a non-U.S. country). A security’s “country of exposure” is determined by PIMCO using certain factors provided by a third-party analytical service provider. The factors are applied in order such that the first factor to result in the assignment of a country determines the “country of exposure.” Both the factors and the order in which they are applied may change in the discretion of PIMCO. The current factors, listed in the order in which they are applied, are: (i) if an asset-backed or other collateralized security, the country in which the collateral backing the security is located; (ii) the “country of risk” of the issuer; (iii) if the security is guaranteed by the government of a country (or any political subdivision, agency, authority or instrumentality of such government), the country of the government or instrumentality providing the guarantee; (iv) the “country of risk” of the issuer’s ultimate parent; or (v) the country where the issuer is organized or incorporated under the laws thereof. “Country of risk” is a separate four-part test determined by the following factors, listed in order of importance: (i) management location; (ii) country of primary listing; (iii) sales or revenue attributable to the country; and (iv) reporting currency of the issuer. For purposes of calculating foreign currency exposure limits (from non-U.S. dollar

denominated securities or currencies), the Funds, as applicable, will net long and short exposures to the same currency, and for positions involving long and short exposures to different currencies, will count the greater absolute value as between the long and short exposures (after first netting exposure within the same currency).

Certain Funds also may invest in sovereign debt issued by governments, their agencies or instrumentalities, or other government-related entities.

■

Emerging Market Securities. Each Fund may invest in securities and instruments that are economically tied to developing (or “emerging market”) countries. PIMCO generally considers an instrument to be economically tied to an emerging market country if: the issuer is organized under the laws of an emerging market country; the currency of settlement of the security is a currency of an emerging market country; the security is guaranteed by the government of an emerging market country (or any political subdivision, agency, authority or instrumentality of such government); for an asset-backed or other collateralized security, the country in which the collateral backing the security is

located is an emerging market country; or the security’s “country of exposure” is an emerging market country, as determined by the criteria set forth below. With respect to derivative instruments, PIMCO generally considers such instruments to be economically tied to emerging market countries if the underlying assets are currencies of emerging market countries (or baskets or indexes of such currencies), instruments or securities that are issued or guaranteed by governments of emerging market countries or by entities organized under the laws of emerging market countries or if an instrument’s “country of exposure” is an emerging market country. A security’s “country of exposure” is determined by PIMCO using certain factors provided by a third-party analytical service provider. The factors are applied in order such that the first factor to result in the assignment of a country determines the “country of exposure.” Both the factors and the order in which they are applied may change in the discretion of PIMCO. The current factors, listed in the order in which they are applied, are: (i) if an asset-backed or other collateralized security, the country in which the collateral backing the security is located; (ii) the “country of risk” of the issuer; (iii) if the security is guaranteed by the government of a country (or any political subdivision, agency, authority or instrumentality of such government), the country of the government or instrumentality providing the guarantee; (iv) the “country of risk” of the issuer’s ultimate parent; or (v) the country where the issuer is organized or incorporated under the laws thereof. “Country of risk” is a separate four-part test determined by the following factors, listed in order of importance: (i) management location; (ii) country of primary listing; (iii) sales or revenue attributable to the country; and (iv) reporting currency of the issuer. PIMCO has broad discretion to identify countries that it considers to qualify as emerging markets. In making investments in emerging market securities, a Fund emphasizes those countries with relatively low gross national product per capita and with the potential for rapid economic growth. Emerging market countries are generally located in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Latin America and Eastern Europe. PIMCO will select the country and currency composition based on its evaluation of relative interest rates, inflation rates, exchange rates, monetary and fiscal policies, trade and current account balances, legal and political developments and any other specific factors it believes to be relevant.

PIMCO Funds

experience significant declines against the U.S. dollar, and devaluation may occur subsequent to investments in these currencies by a Fund. Many emerging market countries have experienced substantial, and in some periods extremely high, rates of inflation for many years. Inflation and rapid fluctuations in inflation rates have had, and may continue to have, negative effects on the economies and securities markets of certain emerging market countries.

Additional risks of emerging market securities may include: greater social, economic and political uncertainty and instability; more substantial governmental involvement in the economy; less governmental supervision and regulation; unavailability of currency hedging techniques; companies that are newly organized and small; differences in auditing and financial reporting standards, which may result in unavailability of material information about issuers; and less developed legal systems. Emerging securities markets may have different clearance and settlement procedures, which may be unable to keep pace with the volume of securities transactions or otherwise make it difficult to engage in such transactions. Settlement problems may cause a Fund to miss attractive investment opportunities, hold a portion of its assets in cash pending investment, or be delayed in disposing of a portfolio security. Such a delay could result in possible liability to a purchaser of the security. Custody services in many emerging market countries remain undeveloped. A Fund may be investing in emerging market countries where the current law and market practice carry fewer safeguards than in more developed markets, including the protection of client securities against claims from general creditors in the event of the insolvency of an agent selected to hold securities on behalf of a Fund, and the Fund’s custodian and PIMCO have assumed no liability for losses resulting from the Fund acting in accordance with such practice.

■

Investments in China. Certain Funds that may invest in emerging market countries may invest in securities and instruments that are economically tied to the People’s Republic of China (excluding Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan for the purpose of this disclosure) (“PRC”). In determining whether an instrument is economically tied to the PRC, PIMCO uses the criteria for determining whether an instrument is economically tied to an emerging market country as set forth above. Investments in securities and instruments economically tied to the PRC are subject to all of the risks of investments in non-U.S. and emerging markets securities and, as a result, involve special considerations not typically associated with investing in other more established economies or securities markets. Investing in the PRC presents other risks, such as (without limitation) inefficiencies from erratic growth, the unavailability of consistently-reliable economic or financial data, potentially high rates of inflation, dependence on exports and international trade (including the risk of increased trade tariffs and embargoes), relatively high levels of asset price volatility, potential shortage of liquidity and limited accessibility by foreign investors, greater competition from regional economies and territorial and other disputes with other countries,

fluctuations in currency exchange rates or currency devaluation by the PRC government or central bank, particularly in light of the relative lack of currency hedging instruments and controls on the ability to exchange local currency for U.S. dollars, the relatively small size and absence of operating history of many PRC companies, the developing nature of the legal and regulatory framework for securities markets, custody arrangements and commerce, uncertainty and potential changes with respect to the rules and regulations with respect to the development of the qualified foreign institutional investor (“QFII”), the commitment of the government of the PRC to economic reforms, and the risk that Chinese regulators may suspend trading in Chinese issuers (or permit such issuers to suspend trading) during market disruptions, and that such suspensions may be widespread and increase the risk of market manipulation. In addition, certain securities are, or may in the future become, restricted and a Fund may be forced to sell such restricted security and incur a loss as result.

There is also the risk that the U.S. Government or other governments may sanction Chinese issuers or otherwise prohibit U.S. persons (such as a Fund) from investing in certain Chinese issuers, and that retaliatory actions may be taken in response. Certain Funds may invest in or obtain exposure to China A-shares, which are shares of companies incorporated in the PRC and listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange or the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. China A-shares are denominated in RMB and are generally available for investment by domestic Chinese investors and certain qualified foreign institutional investors through Stock Connect programs, which currently include the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect, Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect, Shanghai-London Stock Connect and Shenzhen-London Stock Connect (“Stock Connect Programs”), and/or through a QFII license holder. Stock Connect Programs allow non-PRC investors (such as a Fund) to purchase certain eligible securities listed on Shanghai Stock Exchange and Shenzhen Stock Exchange via the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (in respect of the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect and Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect) and the London Stock Exchange (in respect of the Shanghai-London Stock Connect and Shenzhen-London Stock Connect). Although the Stock Connect Programs allows non- PRC investors to trade eligible securities listed on Shanghai Stock Exchange and Shenzhen Stock Exchange without a license, purchases of securities through Stock Connect Programs are subject to market-wide daily quota limitations, which may prevent a Fund from purchasing or obtaining exposure to securities listed on Shanghai Stock Exchange and Shenzhen Stock Exchange when it is otherwise advantageous to do so. An investor cannot purchase and sell the same security on the same trading day, which may restrict a Fund’s ability to invest in or obtain exposure to China A-shares through Stock Connect Programs and to enter into or exit trades where it is advantageous to do so on the same trading day. Only certain China A-shares are eligible to be accessed through Stock Connect Programs. Such securities may

lose their eligibility at any time, in which case they could be sold but could no longer be purchased through Stock Connect Programs. The applicable rules as well as trading, settlement and information technology systems required to operate Stock Connect Programs are continuing to evolve. In the event that the relevant systems do not function properly, trading through Stock Connect Programs could be disrupted.

Foreign (Non-U.S.) Currencies

to increase exposure to a foreign currency or to shift exposure to foreign currency fluctuations from one currency to another. To the extent foreign exchange transactions for a Fund are directed to the Fund’s custodian for execution, execution of such transactions may be better or worse than comparable transactions effected by other intermediaries. Suitable hedging transactions may not be available in all circumstances and there can be no assurance that a Fund will engage in such transactions at any given time or from time to time. Also, such transactions may not be successful and may eliminate any chance for a Fund to benefit from favorable fluctuations in relevant foreign currencies. A Fund may use one currency (or a basket of currencies) to hedge against adverse changes in the value of another currency (or a basket of currencies) when exchange rates between the two currencies are positively correlated.

■

Redenomination. Uncertainty as to the status of the euro and the European Monetary Union (the “EMU”) has at times created significant volatility in currency and financial markets generally. Any partial or complete dissolution of the EMU could have significant adverse effects on currency and financial markets and on the values of a Fund’s portfolio investments. If one or more EMU countries were to stop using the euro as its primary currency, a Fund’s investments in such countries may be redenominated into a different or newly adopted currency. As a result, the value of those investments could decline significantly and unpredictably. In addition, securities or other investments that are redenominated may be subject to currency risk, liquidity risk and risk of improper valuation to a greater extent than similar investments currently denominated in euros. To the extent a currency used for redenomination purposes is not specified in respect of certain EMU-related investments, or should the euro cease to be used entirely, the currency in which such investments are denominated may be unclear, making such investments particularly difficult to value or dispose of.

Repurchase Agreements

Each Fund may enter into repurchase agreements, in which a Fund purchases a security from a bank or broker-dealer that agrees to repurchase the security at the Fund’s cost plus interest within a specified time. If the party agreeing to repurchase should default, the Fund will seek to sell the securities which it holds. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price. The security subject to a repurchase agreement may be or become illiquid. These events could also trigger adverse tax consequences for the Fund.

PIMCO Funds

Reverse Repurchase Agreements, Dollar Rolls and Other Borrowings

Each Fund may enter into reverse repurchase agreements and dollar rolls, subject to a Fund’s limitations on borrowings. A reverse repurchase agreement involves the sale of a security by a Fund and its agreement to repurchase the instrument at a specified time and price. A dollar roll is similar except that the counterparty is not obligated to return the same securities as those originally sold by a Fund but only securities that are “substantially identical.” Reverse repurchase agreements and dollar rolls may be considered borrowing for some purposes. Reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls and other forms of borrowings may create leveraging risk for a Fund.

Each Fund may borrow money to the extent permitted under the 1940 Act. This means that, in general, a Fund may borrow money from banks for any purpose in an amount up to one-third of the Fund’s total assets, less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities. The Fund may also borrow money for temporary administrative purposes in an amount not to exceed 5% of a Fund’s total assets. In addition, a Fund may borrow from certain other PIMCO funds in inter-fund lending transactions to the extent permitted by an exemptive order from the SEC.

Derivatives

A Fund may, but is not required to, use derivatives and other similar instruments (referred to collectively as “derivatives”) for risk management purposes or as part of its investment strategies. Additionally, a Fund may invest in futures and other derivatives that provide relevant exposures, including for equitization, hedging and relative value purposes. Relative value purposes generally involve taking a position in a financial instrument while taking an offsetting derivative position in an attempt to profit from incremental changes in the price differential. Investments in derivatives may take the form of buying and/or writing (selling) derivatives. Generally, derivatives are financial contracts whose value depends upon, or is derived from, the value of an underlying asset, reference rate or index, and may relate to stocks, bonds, interest rates, spreads between different interest rates, currencies or currency exchange rates, commodities, and related indexes. Examples of derivative instruments include options contracts, futures contracts, options on futures contracts and swap agreements (including, but not limited to, credit default swaps and swaps on exchange-traded funds). A Fund may invest some or all of its assets in derivative instruments, subject to a Fund’s objective and policies. A portfolio manager may decide not to employ any of these strategies and there is no assurance that any derivatives strategy used by a Fund will succeed. A description of these and other derivative instruments that a Fund may use are described under “Investment Objectives and Policies” in the SAI.

or other investments. As a result, a relatively small price movement in a derivative instrument may cause an immediate and substantial loss or gain. A Fund may engage in such transactions regardless of whether a Fund owns the asset, instrument or components of the index underlying the derivative instrument. A Fund may invest a significant portion of its assets in these types of instruments. If it does, a Fund’s investment exposure could far exceed the value of its portfolio securities and its investment performance could be primarily dependent upon securities it does not own. A description of various risks associated with particular derivative instruments is included in “Investment Objectives and Policies” in the SAI. The following provides a more general discussion of important risk factors relating to all derivative instruments that may be used by a Fund.

CPI Swap. A CPI swap is a fixed maturity, OTC derivative transaction in which the investor receives the “realized” rate of inflation as measured by the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (“CPI”) over the life of the swap. The investor in turn pays a fixed annualized rate over the life of the swap. This fixed rate is often referred to as the “breakeven inflation” rate and is generally representative of the difference between treasury yields and TIPS yields of similar maturities at the initiation of the swap. CPI swaps are typically in “bullet” format, where all cash flows are exchanged at maturity. In addition to counterparty risk, CPI swaps are also subject to inflation risk, where the swap can potentially lose value if the realized rate of inflation over the life of the swap is less than the fixed market implied inflation rate (fixed breakeven rate) that the investor agrees to pay at the initiation of the swap.

Market and Fund Liquidity Risk. Liquidity risk exists when a particular derivative instrument is difficult to purchase or sell. If a derivative transaction is particularly large or if the relevant market is illiquid (as is the case with many privately negotiated derivatives), it may not be possible to initiate a transaction or liquidate a position at an advantageous time or price. Liquidity risk also refers to the risk that a Fund may be required to hold additional cash or sell other investments in order to obtain cash to close out derivatives or meet the liquidity demands that derivatives can create to make payments of margin,

collateral, or settlement payments to counterparties. A Fund may have to sell a security at a disadvantageous time or price to meet such obligations.

Leverage Risk. Because many derivatives have a leverage component, adverse changes in the value or level of the underlying asset, reference rate or index could result in a loss substantially greater than the amount invested in the derivative itself. Certain derivatives have the potential for unlimited loss, regardless of the size of the initial investment. When a Fund uses derivatives for leverage, investments in the Fund will tend to be more volatile, resulting in larger gains or losses in response to market changes. Leveraging transactions pursued by a Fund may increase its duration and sensitivity to interest rate risks.

Correlation Risk. In certain cases, the value of derivatives may not correlate perfectly, or at all, with the value of the assets, reference rates or indexes they are designed to closely track. For example, a swap agreement on an exchange-traded fund would not correlate perfectly with the index upon which the exchange-traded fund is based because the fund’s return is net of fees and expenses. In this regard, the Funds offered in this prospectus may seek to achieve their investment objectives, in part, by investing in derivatives positions that are designed to closely track the performance (or inverse performance) of an index on a daily basis. However, the overall investment strategies of these Funds are not designed or expected to produce returns which replicate the performance (or inverse performance) of the particular index, and the degree of variation could be substantial, particularly over longer periods. There are a number of factors which may prevent a Fund, or derivatives or other strategies used by a Fund, from achieving a desired correlation (or inverse correlation) with an index. These may include, but are not limited to: (i) the impact of fund fees, expenses and transaction costs, including borrowing and brokerage costs/ bid-ask spreads, which are not reflected in index returns; (ii) differences in the timing of daily calculations of the value of an index and the timing of the valuation of derivatives, securities and other assets held by a Fund and the determination of the NAV of Fund shares; (iii) disruptions or illiquidity in the markets for derivative instruments or securities in which a Fund invests; (iv) a Fund having exposure to or holding less than all of the securities in the underlying index and/or having exposure to or holding securities not included in the underlying index; (v) large or unexpected movements of assets into and out of a Fund (due to share purchases or redemptions, for example), potentially resulting in a Fund being over- or

under-exposed to the index; (vi) the impact of accounting standards or changes thereto; (vii) changes to the applicable index that are not disseminated in advance; (viii) a possible need to conform a Fund’s portfolio holdings to comply with investment restrictions or policies or regulatory or tax law requirements; and (ix) fluctuations in currency exchange rates.

Market and Other Risks. Like most other investments, derivative instruments are subject to the risk that the market value of the instrument will change in a way detrimental to a Fund’s interest. If a portfolio manager incorrectly forecasts the values of securities, currencies or interest rates or other economic factors in using derivatives for a Fund, the Fund might have been in a better position if it had not entered into the transaction at all. While some strategies involving derivative instruments can reduce the risk of loss, they can also reduce the opportunity for gain or even result in losses by offsetting favorable price movements in other Fund investments. The regulation of the derivatives markets has increased over the past several years, and additional future regulation of the derivatives markets may make derivatives more costly, may limit the availability or reduce the liquidity of derivatives, or may otherwise adversely affect the value or performance of derivatives. Any such adverse future developments could impair the effectiveness or raise the costs of a Fund’s derivative transactions, or impede the employment of the Fund’s derivatives strategies, or adversely affect the Fund’s performance.

Other risks in using derivatives include the risk of mispricing and/or improper valuation of derivatives. Many derivatives, in particular privately negotiated derivatives, are complex and often valued subjectively. Improper valuations can result in increased cash payment requirements to counterparties or a loss of value to a Fund. Also, the value of derivatives may not correlate perfectly, or at all, with the value of the assets, reference rates or indexes they are designed to closely track. For example, a swap agreement on an exchange-traded fund would not correlate perfectly with the index upon which the exchange-traded fund is based because the fund’s return is net of fees and expenses. In addition, a Fund’s use of derivatives may cause a Fund to realize higher amounts of short-term capital gains (generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates) than if the Fund had not used such instruments.

Operational and Legal Risks. Using derivatives is also subject to operational and legal risks. Operational risk generally refers to the risk related to potential operational issues, including documentation issues, settlement issues, systems failures, inadequate controls, and human error. Legal risk generally refers to insufficient documentation, insufficient capacity or authority of counterparty, or legality or enforceability of a contract.

A Note on the PIMCO StocksPLUS® Short Fund. The PIMCO StocksPLUS® Short Fund will generally benefit when the value of the Fund’s associated index is declining and will generally not perform well when the index is rising, a result that is different from traditional mutual funds. Under certain conditions, even if the value of the Fund’s associated index is declining (which could be beneficial to a short strategy), this could be offset by declining

values of the Fund’s holdings of Fixed Income Instruments. Conversely, it is possible that rising fixed income securities prices could be offset by a rising index (which could lead to losses in a short strategy). In either scenario, the Fund may experience losses. In a market where the value of the Fund’s associated index is rising and its Fixed Income Instrument holdings are declining, the Fund may experience substantial losses. However, although the Fund uses derivatives and other short positions to gain exposures that may vary inversely with the performance of its associated index, the Fund as a whole is neither designed nor expected to produce returns which replicate the inverse of the performance of its associated index, and the degree of variation could be substantial, particularly over longer periods. Because the value of the Fund’s derivatives short positions move in the opposite direction from the value of the Fund’s associated index every day, for periods greater than one day, the effect of compounding may result in the performance of these derivatives positions, and the Fund’s performance attributable to those positions, to be either greater than or less than the inverse of the index performance for such periods, and the extent of the variation could be substantial due to market volatility and other factors. In addition, the results of PIMCO’s active management of the Fund, including the combination of income and capital gains or losses derived from the Fixed Income Instruments held by the Fund and the ability of the Fund to reduce or limit short exposure, may result in an imperfect inverse correlation between the performance of the Fund’s associated index and the performance of the Fund. As noted above, there are a number of other reasons why changes in the value of derivatives positions may not correlate exactly (either positively or inversely) with an index or which may otherwise prevent a mutual fund or its positions from achieving such correlation. See “Correlation Risk” above.

A Fund may also invest in other commodity-linked derivative instruments, including swap agreements, commodity options, futures and options on futures. The value of a commodity-linkedderivative investment generally is based upon the price movements of a physical commodity (such as energy, mineral, or agricultural products), a commodity futures contract, a subset of commodities, a subset of commodities futures contracts or commodity index, or other economic variable based upon changes in the value of commodities or the commodities markets. Options transactions may be effected on securities or in the OTC market. When OTC options are purchased, the Fund’s portfolio bears the risk that the counterparty that wrote the option will be unable or unwilling to perform its obligations under the option contract. Options may also be illiquid and, in such cases, the Fund may have difficulty closing out its position. OTC options also may include options on baskets of specific securities. Many swap transactions are privately negotiated agreements between the Fund and a counterparty to exchange or swap investment cash flows or assets at specified intervals in the future. The obligations may extend beyond one year. There is often no central exchange for swap transactions and therefore they can be less liquid investments than exchange-traded instruments. The Dodd-Frank Act and related regulatory developments

require the clearing and exchange-trading of certain standardized OTC derivative instruments that the CFTC and SEC have defined as “swaps.” The CFTC has implemented mandatory exchange-trading and clearing requirements under the Dodd-Frank Act and the CFTC continues to approve contracts for central clearing. Uncleared swaps are subject to margin requirements that are being implemented on a phased-in basis. The investment adviser will continue to monitor these developments, particularly to the extent regulatory changes affect the Fund’s ability to enter into swap agreements.

and demand, including reduced demand for properties or real estate-related services, reduced demand for commercial and office space as well as increased maintenance or tenant improvement costs to convert properties for other uses, default risk of tenants and borrowers, the financial condition of tenants, buyers and sellers, and the inability to re-lease space on attractive terms or to obtain mortgage financing on a timely basis or at all. Additional risks include changes in interest rates, zoning laws, regulatory limitations on rents, property taxes and operating expenses. Real estate securities may have limited diversification and, therefore, tend to be subject to risks inherent in operating and financing a limited number of projects. Other factors that may adversely affect REITs include poor performance by management of the REIT, changes to the tax laws, or failure by the REIT to qualify for tax-free distribution of income. REITs are also subject to default by borrowers and self-liquidation, and are heavily dependent on cash flow. Some REITs lack diversification because they invest in a limited number of properties, a narrow geographic area, or a single type of property. Mortgage REITs may be impacted by the quality of the credit extended.

Delayed Funding Loans and Revolving Credit Facilities

When-Issued, Delayed Delivery and Forward Commitment Transactions

Each Fund may purchase or sell securities that it is eligible to purchase or sell on a when-issued basis, may purchase or sell such securities for delayed delivery and may make contracts to purchase or sell such securities for a fixed price at a future date beyond normal settlement time (forward commitments). When-issued transactions, delayed delivery purchases and forward commitments involve a risk of loss if the value of the securities declines prior to the settlement date. This risk is in addition to the risk that a Fund’s other assets will decline in value. Therefore, these transactions may result in a form of leverage and increase a Fund’s overall investment exposure. Typically, no income accrues on securities a Fund has committed to purchase prior to the time delivery of the securities is made. When a Fund has sold a security on a when-issued, delayed delivery, or forward commitment basis, the Fund does not participate in future gains or losses with respect to the security. If the other party to a transaction fails to pay for the securities, a Fund could suffer a loss. Additionally, when selling a security on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment basis without owning the security, a Fund will incur a loss if the security’s price appreciates in value such that the security’s price is above the agreed-upon price on the settlement date.

Investment in Other Investment Companies

Each Fund may invest in certain money market funds and/or short-term bond funds (“Central Funds”), to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act, the rules thereunder or exemptive relief therefrom. The Central Funds are registered investment companies created for use solely by the series of registered investment companies advised by PIMCO, in connection with their cash management activities. The main investments of the Central Funds are money market instruments and short maturity Fixed Income Instruments. The Central Funds may incur expenses related to their investment activities, but do not pay investment advisory or supervisory and administrative fees to PIMCO.

Participation in a cash sweep program where a Fund's uninvested cash balance is used to purchase shares of affiliated or unaffiliated money market funds or cash management pooled investment vehicles at the end of each day subjects the Fund to the risks associated with the underlying money market funds or cash management pooled investment vehicles, including liquidity risk. As a shareholder of a money market fund or cash management pooled investment vehicle, a Fund would indirectly bear the fees and expenses of the underlying fund or account which are in addition to the fees the Fund pays its service providers.

Small-Cap and Mid-Cap Companies

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus 121

PIMCO Funds

have an established financial history, which can present valuation challenges. The equity securities of small- and mid-cap companies may be subject to increased market fluctuations, due to less liquid markets and more limited managerial and financial resources or they may depend on a small or inexperienced management group. A Fund’s investment in small- and mid-cap companies may increase the volatility of a Fund’s portfolio.

Short Sales

A Fund may make short sales as part of its overall portfolio management strategies or to offset a potential decline in value of a security. A short sale involves the sale of a security that is borrowed from a broker or other institution to complete the sale. Short sales expose a Fund to the risk that it will be required to acquire, convert or exchange securities to replace the borrowed securities (also known as “covering” the short position) at a time when the securities sold short have appreciated in value, thus resulting in a loss to a Fund. A short sale is “against the box” to the extent that a Fund contemporaneously owns, or has the right to obtain at no added cost, securities identical to those sold short. A Fund may engage in short selling to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act and rules and interpretations thereunder and other federal securities laws. To the extent a Fund engages in short selling in foreign (non-U.S.) jurisdictions, a Fund will do so to the extent permitted by the laws and regulations of such jurisdiction.

Illiquid Investments

Each Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets (taken at the time of investment) in illiquid investments that are assets. Certain illiquid investments may require pricing at fair value as determined in good faith under the supervision of the Board of Trustees. A portfolio manager may be subject to significant delays in disposing of illiquid investments and transactions in illiquid investments may entail registration expenses and other transaction costs that are higher than those for transactions in liquid investments. The term “illiquid investments” for this purpose means investments that a Fund reasonably expects cannot be sold or disposed of in current market conditions in seven calendar days or less without the sale or disposition significantly changing the market value of the investment. Restricted securities, i.e., securities subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale, may be illiquid. However, some restricted securities (such as securities issued pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act and certain commercial paper) may be treated as liquid (i.e., classified by a Fund in a liquidity category other than “illiquid” pursuant to a Fund’s liquidity risk management procedures), although they may be relatively less liquid than registered securities traded on established secondary markets. Additional discussion of illiquid investments and related regulatory limits and requirements is available under “Investment Objectives and Policies” in the SAI.

Loans of Portfolio Securities

For the purpose of achieving income, each Fund may lend its portfolio securities to brokers, dealers, and other financial institutions provided a number of conditions are satisfied, including that the loan is fully collateralized. Please see “Investment Objectives and Policies” in the

SAI for details. When a Fund lends portfolio securities, its investment performance will continue to reflect changes in the value of the securities loaned, and the Fund will also receive a fee or interest on the collateral. Securities lending involves the risk of loss of rights in the collateral or delay in recovery of the collateral if the borrower fails to return the security loaned or becomes insolvent. A Fund may pay lending fees to a party arranging the loan, which may be an affiliate of the Fund. Cash collateral received by a Fund in securities lending transactions may be invested in short-term liquid fixed income instruments or in money market or short-term mutual funds, or similar investment vehicles, including affiliated money market or short-term mutual funds. As a shareholder of an investment company or other pooled vehicle, a Fund may indirectly bear investment advisory fees, supervisory and administrative fees, service fees and other fees which are in addition to the fees the Fund pays its service providers. To the extent such cash collateral is invested in an affiliated money market or short-term mutual fund, such fees generally will not be waived, and PIMCO expects to select such an investment without considering or canvassing the universe of available unaffiliated investment companies. A Fund bears the risk of such investments.

Portfolio Turnover

The length of time a Fund has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by a Fund is known as “portfolio turnover.” When the portfolio managers deem it appropriate and particularly during periods of volatile market movements, a Fund may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective. Higher portfolio turnover (e.g., an annual rate greater than 100% of the average value of a Fund’s portfolio) involves correspondingly greater expenses to a Fund, including brokerage commissions or dealer markups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect a Fund’s performance. Please see a Fund's “Fund Summary—Portfolio Turnover” or the “Financial Highlights” in this prospectus for the portfolio turnover rates of the Funds that were operational during the last fiscal year.

August 1, 2025 | Prospectus 123

PIMCO Funds

Cyber security failures or breaches may result in financial losses to a Fund and its shareholders. For example, cyber security failures or breaches involving trading counterparties or issuers in which a Fund invests could adversely impact such counterparties or issuers and cause the Fund’s investments to lose value. These failures or breaches may also result in disruptions to business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses; interference with a Fund’s ability to calculate its NAV, process shareholder transactions or otherwise transact business with shareholders; impediments to trading; violations of applicable privacy and other laws; regulatory fines; penalties; third-party claims in litigation; reputational damage; reimbursement or other compensation costs; additional compliance and cyber security risk management costs and other adverse consequences. In addition, substantial costs may be incurred in order to prevent any cyber incidents in the future.

there is no guarantee that efforts to prevent or mitigate the effects of such attacks or other attempts to gain unauthorized access will be successful. There is also a risk that cyber security breaches may not be detected. The Funds and their shareholders may suffer losses as a result of a cyber security breach related to the Funds, their service providers, trading counterparties or the issuers in which a Fund invests.
