TIPS
Treasury
inflation
protected
securities
("TIPS")
are
debt
securities
issued
by
the
US
Treasury
whose
principal
and/or
interest
payments
are
adjusted
for
inflation,
unlike
debt
securities
that
make
fixed
principal
and
interest
payments.
The
interest
rate
paid
by
the
TIPS
is
fixed,
while
the
principal
value
rises
or
falls
based
on
changes
in
a
published
Consumer
Price
Index
(“CPI”).
Thus,
if
inflation
occurs,
the
principal
and
interest
payments
on
the
TIPS
are
adjusted
accordingly
to
protect
investors
from
inflationary
loss.  During
a
deflationary
period,
the
principal
and
interest
payments
decrease,
although
the
TIPS
principal
amounts
will
not
drop
below
their
face
amounts
at
maturity.
In
exchange
for
the
inflation
protection,
the
TIPS
generally
pay
lower
interest
rates
than
typical
US
Treasury
securities.
Only
if
inflation
occurs
will
TIPS
offer
a
higher
real
yield
than
a
conventional
Treasury
security
of
the
same
maturity.

Significant
Accounting
Policies 
The
Trust,
which
is
an
investment
company,
follows
accounting
and
reporting
guidance
under
Financial
Ac-
counting
Standards
Board
(“FASB”)
Accounting
Stan-
dards
Codification
Topic
946,
“Financial
Services-In-
vestment
Companies.”
The
following
is
a
summary
of
significant
accounting
policies
followed
by
the
Funds
in
the
preparation
of
their
financial
statements.
These
policies
are
in
conformity
with
accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
of
America
(“U.S.
GAAP”).
The
preparation
of
financial
statements
in
conformity
with
U.S.
GAAP
requires
management
to
make
estimates
and
assumptions
that
affect
the
report-
ed
amounts
and
disclosures
in
the
financial
statements.
Actual
results
could
differ
from
those
estimates.

Financial
Statements
(cont.)
Investment
Valuation 
Each
Fund’s
net
asset
value
(“NAV”)
is
determined
dai-
ly
as
of
the
close
of
regular
trading
on
the
New
York
Stock
Exchange
(“NYSE”),
normally
4:00
p.m.
Eastern
time,
on
each
day
the
NYSE
is
open
for
trading,
based
on
prices
at
the
time
of
closing
provided
that
any
U.S.
fixed-income
assets
may
be
valued
as
of
the
announced
closing
time
for
trading
in
fixed-income
instruments
on
any
day
that
the
Securities
Industry
and
Financial
Mar-
kets
Association
announces
an
early
closing
time.
The
NAV
of
a
Fund
is
calculated
by
dividing
the
value
of
all
assets
of
the
Fund
(including
accrued
interest
and
div-
idends),
less
all
liabilities
(including
accrued
expenses
and
dividends
declared
but
unpaid),
by
the
total
number
of
shares
outstanding.
The
investments
of
the
Funds
are
valued
at
fair
value
pursuant
to
the
pricing
policy
and
procedures
approved
by
the
Trust’s
Board
of
Trustees
(“Board”).
The
Funds’
investments
are
valued
using
market
quotations
when
available.
The
Board
has
designated
NTI
as
the
valua-
tion
designee
pursuant
to
Rule
2a-5
under
the
1940
Act
to
perform
fair
value
determinations
relating
to
any
or
all
Fund
investments.
Accordingly,
when
market
quotations
are
not
readily
available,
are
deemed
unreliable,
or
do
not
reflect
material
events
occurring
between
the
close
of
local
markets
and
the
time
of
valuation,
NTI
values
Fund
securities
at
fair
value
as
determined
in
good
faith
in
accordance
with
the
Funds’
fair
value
pricing
proce-
dures
as
approved
by
the
Board.
Such
circumstances
include
periods
when
trading
in
a
security
is
suspend-
ed,
the
exchange
or
market
on
which
a
security
trades
closes
early,
the
trading
volume
in
a
security
is
limit-
ed,
corporate
actions
and
announcements
take
place,
or
regulatory
news
affecting
an
issuer
is
released,
such
as
government
approvals.
The
Board
oversees
NTI
in
its
role
as
valuation
designee
in
accordance
with
the
requirements
of
Rule
2a-5
under
the
1940
Act.
Addi-
tionally,
NTI,
in
its
discretion,
may
make
adjustments
to
the
prices
of
securities
held
by
a
Fund
if
an
event
occurs
after
the
publication
of
market
values
normally
used
by
NTI
on
behalf
of
a
Fund
but
before
the
time
as
of
which
the
Fund
calculates
its
NAV,
depending
on
the
nature
and
significance
of
the
event,
consistent
with
applicable
regulatory
guidance
and
the
Trust’s
fair
value
procedures.
Other
events
that
can
trigger
fair
valuing
of
foreign
securities
include,
for
example,
significant
fluctu-
ations
in
general
market
indicators,
government
actions,
or
natural
disasters.
The
use
of
fair
valuation
involves
the
risk
that
the
values
used
by
NTI
to
price
a
Fund’s
investments
may
be
high-
er
or
lower
than
the
values
used
by
other
investment
companies
and
investors
to
price
the
same
investments.
Fair
value
pricing
involves
subjective
judgments
and
it
is
possible
that
a
fair
value
determination
for
a
portfo-
lio
security
may
be
materially
different
than
the
value
that
could
be
realized
upon
the
sale
of
such
security.
In
addition,
fair
value
pricing
could
result
in
a
difference
between
the
prices
used
to
calculate
an
Index
Fund’s
NAV
and
the
prices
used
by
an
Index
Fund’s
Underly-
ing
Index.
This
difference
may
adversely
affect
an
Index
Fund’s
ability
to
track
its
Underlying
Index.
Portfolio
se-
curities
of
certain
Funds
are
listed
on
foreign
exchanges
and
their
values
may
change
on
days
when
sharehold-
ers
will
not
be
able
to
purchase
or
sell
Fund
shares.
Security
prices
are
generally
provided
by
independent
pricing
services.
Portfolio
securities
listed
or
traded
on
domestic
securities
exchanges
or
the
NASDAQ/
NMS,
including
dollar-denominated
foreign
securities
or
American
Depositary
Receipts
(“ADRs”),
are
valued
at
the
closing
price,
or
last
sale
price,
reported
on
the
exchange
or
system
where
the
security
is
principally
traded.
The
closing
price
for
securities
traded
on
the
NASDAQ/NMS
is
the
Nasdaq
Official
Closing
Price
(“NOCP”).
If
there
have
been
no
sales
for
that
day
on
the
exchange
or
system
where
the
security
is
principally
traded,
then
the
value
is
determined
with
reference
to
the
last
sale
price,
or
the
NOCP,
if
applicable,
on
any
other
exchange
or
system.
If
there
have
been
no
sales
of
the
security
for
that
day
on
any
exchange
or
system,
the
security
is
valued
at
fair
value
pursuant
to
the
Trust’s
fair
value
procedures.
Securities
that
are
traded
regularly
in
the
over-the-
counter
market
(other
than
the
NASDAQ/NMS),
includ-
ing
securities
listed
on
exchanges
but
primarily
traded
over-the-counter,
are
valued
on
the
basis
of
bid
quotes
or
the
mean
between
the
bid
and
asked
quotes
based
upon
quotes
furnished
by
one
or
more
broker-dealers
or
market
makers
for
those
securities.
Securities
that
may
be
traded
over-the-counter
include
equity
securities,
fixed-income
securities,
non-exchange-listed
foreign
securities,
and
certain
derivative
instruments.
Fixed-in-
come
securities
may
be
valued
using
prices
provided
di-
rectly
from
one
or
more
broker-dealers,
market
makers,
or
independent
third-party
pricing
services
which
may
use
matrix
pricing
and
valuation
models,
as
well
as
re-
cent
market
transactions
for
the
same
or
similar
assets,
to
derive
values
when
such
prices
are
believed
to
reflect
FLEXSHARES
SEMIANNUAL
REPORT
316
Notes
to
the
Financial
Statements
(cont.)
fair
market
values
of
such
securities.
Such
prices
may
be
determined
by
taking
into
account
securities
prices,
yields,
maturities,
call
features,
ratings,
prepayment
speeds,
credit
risks,
cash
flows,
institutional
size
trading
in
similar
groups
of
securities
and
developments
related
to
specific
securities.
Fixed-income
securities
maturing
within
a
relatively
short
period,
less
than
60
days,
are
valued
at
amortized
cost
when
it
approximates
fair
value.
Foreign
equity
securities
are
generally
priced
at
the
closing
price
or
last
sales
price
reported
on
the
foreign
exchange
on
which
they
are
principally
traded.
If
there
have
been
no
sales
for
that
day
on
the
primary
ex-
change,
then
the
value
is
determined
with
reference
to
the
last
sale
price
on
any
other
exchange.
If
there
have
been
no
sales
of
the
security
for
that
day
on
any
ex-
change,
the
security
will
be
valued
at
fair
value
pursuant
to
the
Trust’s
fair
value
procedures.
Spot
and
forward
foreign
currency
exchange
contracts
generally
are
val-
ued
using
an
independent
pricing
service.
The
value
of
assets
denominated
in
foreign
currencies
is
converted
into
U.S.
dollars
using
exchange
rates
deemed
appro-
priate
by
NTI
as
Investment
Adviser.
Any
use
of
a
differ-
ent
rate
from
the
rates
used
by
an
Underlying
Index’s
index
provider
may
adversely
affect
an
Index
Fund’s
ability
to
track
its
Underlying
Index.
An
Underlying
In-
dex’s
index
provider
determines
the
composition
and
relative
weightings
of
the
securities
in
the
Underlying
Index
and
publishes
information
regarding
the
market
value
of
the
Underlying
Index.
Exchange-traded
financial
futures
and
options
thereon
are
valued
at
the
settlement
price
as
established
by
the
exchange
on
which
they
are
traded.
Over-the-counter
options
are
valued
at
broker-provided
bid
prices,
as
are
swaps.
The
foregoing
prices
may
be
obtained
from
one
or
more
independent
pricing
services
or,
as
needed
or
applicable,
independent
broker-dealers.
If
there
was
no
sale
on
that
day,
and
for
other
non-exchange
traded
de-
rivatives,
the
contract
is
valued
at
fair
value
pursuant
to
the
Trust’s
fair
value
procedures.
Each
Fund
relies
on
various
sources
to
calculate
its
NAV.
The
ability
of
the
Funds’
administrator
to
calculate
the
NAV
per
share
of
the
Funds
is
subject
to
operation-
al
risks
associated
with
processing
or
human
errors,
systems
or
technology
failures,
and
errors
caused
by
third
party
service
providers,
data
sources,
or
trading
counterparties.
Such
failures
may
result
in
delays
in
the
calculation
of
the
Funds’
NAVs
and/or
the
inability
to
cal-
culate
NAV
over
extended
time
periods.
The
Funds
may
be
unable
to
recover
any
losses
associated
with
such
failures,
and
it
may
be
necessary
for
alternative
proce-
dures
to
be
followed
to
price
portfolio
securities
when
determining
the
Funds’
NAVs.
Various
inputs
are
used
in
determining
the
value
of
each
Fund’s
investments.
These
inputs
are
summarized
in
three
levels
listed
below:
Level
1—Quoted
prices
in
active
markets
for
identical
assets
on
the
measurement
date.
Level
2—Other
significant
observable
inputs
(including
quoted
prices
for
similar
securities,
interest
rates,
prepayment
speeds,
credit
risk,
etc.).
Level
3—Significant
unobservable
inputs
(including
the
Funds’
own
assumptions
in
determining
the
fair
value
of
investments).
The
inputs
or
methodology
used
for
valuing
securities
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risk
associated
with
investing
in
those
securities.
For
example,
short-
term
debt
securities
may
be
valued
at
amortized
cost,
as
long
as
amortized
cost
approximates
the
current
fair
value
of
a
security,
but
since
the
valuation
is
not
ob-
tained
from
a
quoted
price
in
an
active
market,
such
se-
curities
are
reflected
as
Level
2. 
The
following
is
a
summary
of
the
valuations
as
of
April
30,
2026 for
each
Fund
based
upon
the
three
levels
de-
fined
above.
The
value
of
Level
3
securities
compared
to
the
total
Fund
net
assets
is
not
material
and,
there-
fore,
the
reconciliation
of
Level
3
securities
and
related
valuation
techniques
are
not
disclosed.
Please
refer
to
the
Schedules
of
Investments
to
view
equity
and
debt
securities
segregated
by
industry
type,
where
applica-
ble.

Financial
Statements
(cont.)
Foreign
Securities 
Certain
Funds
invest
in
publicly-traded
equity
securities
of
issuers
in
countries
other
than
the
United
States
of
America
(“U.S.”).
Such
investments
include
direct
in-
vestments
in
non-U.S.
dollar
denominated
securities
traded
outside
the
U.S.
The
Funds’
investments
in
for-
eign
securities
also
may
be
in
the
form
of
ADRs
and
Global
Depositary
Receipts
(“GDRs”)
(collectively,
“De-
positary
Receipts”)
based
on
securities
in
their
Under-
lying
Indexes.
ADRs
are
receipts
that
are
traded
in
the
United
States
evidencing
ownership
of
the
underlying
foreign
securities
and
are
denominated
in
U.S.
dollars.
GDRs
are
receipts
issued
by
a
non-U.S.
financial
in-
stitution
evidencing
ownership
of
underlying
foreign
or
U.S.
securities
and
usually
are
denominated
in
foreign
currencies.
GDRs
may
not
be
denominated
in
the
same
currency
as
the
securities
they
represent.
Generally,
GDRs
are
designed
for
use
in
foreign
securities
mar-
kets.
In
addition
to
investment
risks
associated
with
the
un-
derlying
issuer,
ADRs
and
GDRs
expose
a
Fund
to
risk
associated
with
non-uniform
terms
that
apply
to
ADR
and
GDR
programs,
credit
exposure
to
the
depository
bank
and
to
the
sponsors
and
other
parties
with
whom
the
depository
bank
establishes
the
programs,
currency
and
liquidity
risk.
ADRs
and
GDRs
are
generally
subject
to
the
same
risks
as
the
foreign
securities
that
they
evi-
dence
or
into
which
they
may
be
converted.
To
the
extent
a
Fund
invests
in
ADRs,
such
ADRs
will
be
listed
on
a
national
securities
exchange.
To
the
extent
a
Fund
invests
in
GDRs,
such
GDRs
will
be
listed
on
a
foreign
exchange.
A
Fund
will
not
invest
in
any
unlist-
ed
Depositary
Receipt,
any
Depositary
Receipt
that
NTI
deems
to
be
illiquid
or
any
Depositary
Receipt
for
which
market
quotations
are
not
readily
available.
Generally,
all
Depositary
Receipts
must
be
sponsored.
Certain Funds
may
invest
in
U.S.
dollar
denominated
bonds
of
non-U.S.
corporations
and
debt
securities
of
foreign
governments.
Investing
in
foreign
securities,
including
Depositary
Re-
ceipts,
may
result
in
a
Fund
experiencing
more
rapid
and
extreme
changes
in
value
than
a
fund
that
invests
exclusively
in
U.S.
securities,
due
to
less
liquid
markets,
and
adverse
economic,
political,
diplomatic,
financial,
and
regulatory
factors.
Foreign
governments
also
may
impose
taxes
and
limits
on
investment
and
repatriation.
Any
of
these
events
could
cause
the
value
of
a
Fund’s
foreign
investment
to
decline.
To
the
extent
that
a
Fund’s
assets
are
significantly
invested
in
a
single
country
or
geographic
region,
a
Fund
will
be
subject
to
the
risks
associated
with
that
particular
country
or
region.
Certain Funds
may
invest their
assets
in
emerging
mar-
ket
countries.
The
markets
of
emerging
market
countries
are
less
developed
and
less
liquid,
subject
to
greater
price
volatility
and
generally
subject
to
increased
eco-
nomic,
political,
regulatory
and
other
uncertainties
than
more
developed
foreign
markets.
The
risks
of
foreign
investment
are
increased
when
the
issuer
is
located
in
a
country
with
an
emerging
economy
or
securities
market.
Inflation-Indexed
Securities 
Certain
Funds
may
invest in
U.S.
Treasury
Inflation-Pro-
tected
Securities
(“TIPS”).
TIPS
have
varying
maturities
and
pay
interest
on
a
semiannual
basis
equal
to
a
fixed
percentage
of
the
in-
flation
adjusted
principal
amount.
If
the
periodic
adjust-
ment
rate
measuring
inflation
falls,
the
principal
value
of
TIPS
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,
even
during
a
period
of
deflation.
The
value
of
TIPS
is
expected
to
change
in
response
to
changes
in
real
interest
rates.
Real
interest
rates
in
turn
are
tied
to
the
relationship
between
nominal
interest
rates
and
the
rate
of
inflation.
Therefore,
if
the
rate
of
inflation
rises
at
a
faster
rate
than
nominal
interest
rates,
real
interest
rates
might
decline,
leading
to
an
increase
in
value
of
TIPS.
In
contrast,
if
nominal
interest
rates
increase
at
a
faster
rate
than
inflation,
real
interest
rates
might
rise,
leading
to
a
decrease
in
value
of
TIPS.
Any
increase
in
the
principal
amount
of
TIPS
will
be
consid-
ered
taxable
ordinary
income,
even
though
investors
do
not
receive
their
principal
until
maturity.
While
these
securities
are
expected
to
be
protected
from
long-term
inflationary
trends,
short-term
increas-
es
in
inflation
may
lead
to
a
decline
in
value.
If
interest
rates
rise
due
to
reasons
other
than
inflation,
investors
in
these
securities
may
not
be
protected
to
the
extent
that
the
increase
is
not
reflected
in
the
TIPS’
inflation
measure.
327
FLEXSHARES
SEMIANNUAL
REPORT
Notes
to
the
Financial
Statements
(cont.)
The
periodic
adjustment
of
TIPS
is
tied
to
the
Consum-
er
Price
Index
for
Urban
Consumers
(“CPI-U”),
which
is
calculated
monthly
by
the
U.S.
Bureau
of
Labor
Statis-
tics.
The
CPI-U
is
a
measurement
of
changes
in
the
cost
of
living,
made
up
of
components
such
as
housing,
food,
transportation
and
energy.
There
can
be
no
assurance
that
the
CPI-U
will
accurately
measure
the
real
rate
of
inflation
in
the
prices
of
goods
and
services.
Mortgage-Backed
Pass-Through
Securi-
ties 
The
FlexShares
®
Disciplined
Duration
MBS
Index
Fund
invests
primarily
in
U.S.
agency
mortgage-backed
pass-
through
securities
(“MBS”),
a
category
of
pass-through
securities
backed
by
pools
of
mortgages
and
issued
by
one
of
the
following
U.S.
government
agencies:
the
Federal
National
Mortgage
Association
(FNMA
or
Fannie
Mae),
the
Federal
Home
Loan
Mortgage
Cor-
poration
(FHLMC
or
Freddie
Mac)
or
the
Government
National
Mortgage
Association
(GNMA
or
Ginnie
Mae)
(each
a
“US
Agency”). Certain
Index
Funds
will
invest in
the
securities
of such
Index
Fund's Underlying
Index
and
in
“to-be
announced
transactions”
(“TBA
transac-
tions”)
that
represent
securities
in
its
Underlying
Index.
In
a
TBA
transaction,
the
buyer
and
seller
agree
upon
general
trade
parameters
such
as
agency,
coupon
rate,
settlement
date,
par
amount
and
price.
The
actual
pools
delivered
generally
are
determined
two
days
prior
to
settlement.
Mortgage
Dollar
Rolls 
Certain
Funds may
enter
into
mortgage
dollar
roll
trans-
actions.
A
mortgage
dollar
roll
involves
the
sale
by
the
Fund
of
securities
for
delivery
in
the
future
(generally
within
30
days).
The
Fund
simultaneously
contracts
with
the
same
counterparty
to
repurchase
substantially
sim-
ilar
(same
type,
coupon
and
maturity)
but
not
identical
securities
on
a
specified
future
date.
During
the
roll
pe-
riod,
the
Fund
will
not
be
entitled
to
accrue
interest
and
receive
principal
payments
on
the
securities
sold.
How-
ever,
the
Fund
benefits
to
the
extent
of
any
difference
between
(a)
the
price
received
for
the
securities
sold
and
(b)
the
lower
forward
price
for
the
future
purchase
and/or
fee
income
plus
the
interest
earned
on
the
cash
proceeds
of
the
securities
sold.
Successful
use
of
mort-
gage
dollar
rolls
depends
upon
the
Investment
Adviser’s
ability
to
predict
correctly
interest
rates
and
mortgage
prepayments.
The
use
of
this
technique
may
diminish
the
investment
performance
of
the
Fund
compared
with
what
such
performance
would
have
been
without
the
use
of
mortgage
dollar
rolls.
For
financial
reporting
and
tax
purposes,
a
Fund
treats
mortgage
dollar
rolls
as
two
separate
transactions:
one
involving
the
purchase
of
a
security
and
a
separate
transaction
involving
a
sale.
The
Fund
currently
does
not
intend
to
enter
into
mortgage
dollar
rolls
that
are
accounted
for
as
financing
and
does
not
treat
them
as
borrowings.
Repurchase
Agreements 
To
the
extent
consistent
with
its
investment
policies,
each
Fund
may
enter
into
repurchase
agreements
un-
der
which
it
purchases
securities
(collateral)
for
cash
from
a
seller
and
agrees
to
resell
those
securities
to
the
same
seller
within
a
specified
time
at
a
specified
price.
During
the
term
of
a
repurchase
agreement,
the
market
value
of
the
underlying
collateral,
including
accrued
in-
terest,
is
required
to
equal
or
exceed
the
market
value
of
the
repurchase
agreement.
The
underlying
collateral
for
tri-party
repurchase
agreements
is
held
in
accounts
at
JPMorgan
Chase,
the
Fund’s
custodian,
and
is
not
reflected
in
the
assets
of
the
Funds,
at
the
Bank
of
New
York
or
JPMorgan
Chase
which,
in
turn,
holds
securities
through
the
book-entry
system
at
the
Federal
Reserve
Bank
of
New
York.
The
Fund
is
subject
to
credit
risk
on
repurchase
agreements
to
the
extent
that
the
counter-
party
fails
to
perform
under
the
agreement
and
the
value
of
the
collateral
received
falls
below
the
agreed
repur-
chase
price.
The
Northern
Trust
Company,
the
parent
of
NTI,
current-
ly
is
a
party
to
various
Master
Repurchase
Agreements
with
a
number
of
different
counterparties,
and
acts
as
agent
on
behalf
of
various
disclosed
principals,
includ-
ing
the
Funds
and
various
other
accounts
managed
by
NTI,
in
entering
into
repurchase
agreements
under
the
Master
Repurchase
Agreements.
NTI
administers
and
manages
these
repurchase
agreements
in
accordance
with
and
as
part
of
its
duties
under
its
investment
ad-
visory
agreement
with
the
Funds
and
does
not
collect
any
additional
fees
from
the
Funds
for
such
services.
As
of
April
30,
2026,
none
of
the

as

in
the
respective
Schedule
of

under
the
caption
“Securities

Reinvestments.”
Securities
Lending 
Each
Fund
may
lend
securities
to
banks,
brokers
and
dealers
or
other
qualified
institutions.
In
exchange,
the
Fund
is
required
to
receive
minimum
initial
collateral
val-
ue
as
follows: 
The
collateral
is
maintained
thereafter,
at
a
value
equal
to
at
least
100%
of
the
value
of
the
securities
loaned.
The
collateral
amount
is
valued
at
the
beginning
of
each
business
day
and
is
compared
to
the
market
value
of
the
loaned
securities
from
the
prior
business
day
to
de-
termine
if
additional
collateral
is
required.
If
additional
collateral
is
required,
a
request
is
sent
to
the
borrower.
Securities
lending
may
represent
no
more
than
one-third
of
the
value
of
a
Fund’s
total
assets
(including
the
loan
collateral).
JPMorgan
Chase
Bank,
N.A.
(the
“Securities
Lending
Agent”)
serves
as
the
securities
lending
agent
for
the
securities
lending
program
of
a
Fund.
Collateral
for
loans
of
portfolio
securities
made
by
a
Fund
may
consist
of
cash,
cash
equivalents,
securities
issued
or
guaranteed
by
the
U.S.
government
or
for-
eign
governments
or
its
agencies
(or
any
combination
thereof).
Any
cash
collateral
received
by
the
Fund
in
connection
with
these
loans
may
be
invested
in
a
vari-
ety
of
short-term
investments,
either
directly
or
indirectly
through
money
market
portfolios.
The
market
value
of
securities
on
loan
and
the
value
of
investments
made
with
cash
collateral
received
are
disclosed
in
the
Sched-
ules
of
Investments.
Securities
lending
income
includes
income
from
the
securities
lending
program
recorded
when
earned
from
the
Securities
Lending
Agent
and
any
fees
charged
to
borrowers
less
expenses
associated
with
the
loan.
The
net
amount
is
reflected
in
the
State-
ments
of
Operations
under
“Securities
lending
income
(net
of
fees).”
The
market
value
of
the
loaned
securities
is
determined
at
the
close
of
each
business
day
of
the
Fund
and
any
additional
required
collateral
is
delivered
to
the
Fund,
or
excess
collateral
returned
by
the
Fund,
on
the
next
business
day.
When
a
Fund
lends
its
securities,
it
will
continue
to
re-
ceive
payments
equal
to
the
dividends
and
interest
paid
on
the
securities
loaned
and
simultaneously
may
earn
interest
on
the
investment
of
the
cash
collateral.
A
Fund
will
have
the
right
to
terminate
a
loan
at
any
time
and
recall
the
loaned
securities
within
the
normal
and
customary
settlement
time
for
securities
transactions.
A
Fund
does
not
have
the
right
to
vote
securities
on
loan,
but
can
terminate
the
loan
and
regain
the
right
to
vote
if
a
material
event
affecting
the
securities
occurred.
A
bor-
rower
might
become
insolvent
or
refuse
to
honor
its
ob-
ligation
to
return
the
securities.
In
the
event
of
a
default
by
a
borrower
with
respect
to
any
loan,
the
Securities
Lending
Agent
will
exercise
any
and
all
remedies
pro-
vided
under
the
applicable
borrower
agreement.
These
remedies
include
purchasing
replacement
securities
for
the
Fund
by
applying
the
collateral
held
from
the
de-
faulting
borrower
against
the

of

As

2026,
the
Securities
Lending
Agency
Agreement
does
not
permit
the

a

The

received
from

in
the
Statements
of
Assets
and

is
collateralized
by
securities
on
loan
as
disclosed
with-
in
the
Schedules
of
Investments
and
such
borrowings
have
maturities
that
are
overnight
and
continuous.
Securities
lending
agreements
may
be
subject
to
regu-
lation
as
qualified
financial
contracts
(“QFCs”).
Regula-
tions
adopted
by
federal
banking
regulators
under
the
Dodd-Frank
Act,
which
took
effect
in
2019,
require
that
certain
QFCs
with
counterparties
that
are
part
of
U.S.
or
foreign
global
systemically
important
banking
organiza-
tions
be
amended
to
include
contractual
restrictions
on
close-out

cross-default
rights.
If
a

counter-
party
of
a
Fund
or
certain
of
the
covered
counterparty's
affiliates
were
to
become
subject
to
certain
insolvency
proceedings,
the
Fund
may
be
temporarily
unable
to
ex-
ercise
certain
default
rights,
and
the
QFC
may
be
trans-
ferred
to
another
entity.
These
requirements
may
impact
a
Fund's
credit
and
counterparty
risks.
The
remaining
maturities
of
the
securities
lending
transactions
are
con-
sidered
overnight
and
continuous.
Derivative
Contracts 
Futures
Contracts 
All
of
the
Index
Funds
may
invest
in
futures
contracts
to
help
track
the
price
and
yield
performance
of
their
Underlying
Indexes.
At
the
time
a
Fund
enters
into
a
futures
contract,
it
is
generally
required
to
make
a
mar-
gin
deposit
with
the
custodian
of
a
specified
amount
of
liquid
assets.
Subsequent
payments
to
be
made
or
received
by
the
Funds
equal
to
the
change
in
contract
value
are
recorded
as
variation
margin
payable
or
re-
ceivable
and
offset
in
unrealized
gains
or
losses.
Fu-
tures
are
marked
to
market
each
day
with
the
change
in
value
reflected
in
the
unrealized
gains
or
losses.
A
Fund
recognizes
a
realized
gain
or
loss
when
a
contract
is
closed
or
expires.
The
Statements
of
Operations
reflect
unrealized
gains
or
losses
on
open
futures
contracts,
as
“Net
change
in
unrealized
appreciation
(depreciation)
on
futures
contracts”,
and
any
realized
gains
(losses)
on
closed
futures
contracts
as
“Net
realized
gain
(loss)
from
Expiration
or
closing
of

Certain

take
long
or

had
open
futures
contracts.
The
use
of
futures
contracts
involves,
to
varying
degrees,
elements
of
market
and
counterparty
risk,
which
may
exceed
the
amounts
recognized
in
the
Statements
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
Futures
contracts
present
the
fol-
lowing
risks:
imperfect
correlation
between
the
change
in
market
value
of
a
Fund’s
securities
and
the
price
of
futures
contracts;
the
possible
inability
to
close
a
futures
contract
when
desired;
losses
due
to
unanticipated
mar-
ket
movements,
which
potentially
are
unlimited;
and
the
possible
inability
of
NTI
to
correctly
predict
the
direction
of
securities
prices,
interest
rates,
currency
exchange
rates
and
other
economic
factors.
Futures
markets
are
highly
volatile
and
the
use
of
futures
may
increase
the
volatility
of
a
Fund’s
NAV.
As
a
result
of
the
low
margin
deposits
normally
required
in
futures
trading,
a
relatively
small
price
movement
in
a
futures
contract
may
result
in
substantial
losses
to
a
Fund.
Futures
contracts
may
be
illiquid,
and
exchanges
may
limit
fluctuations
in
futures
contract
prices
during
a
single
day.
Foreign
exchanges
or
boards
of
trade
generally
do
not
offer
the
same
pro-
tection
as
U.S.
exchanges.
Foreign
Currency
Translations 
Values
of
investments
denominated
in
foreign
curren-
cies
are
converted
into
U.S.
dollars
using
the
prevailing
market
rates
on
the
date
of
valuation
as
quoted
by
one
or
more
banks
or
dealers
that
make
a
two-way
market
in
such
currencies
(or
a
data
service
provider
based
on
quotations
received
from
such
banks
or
dealers).
Any
use
of
a
rate
different
from
the
rates
used
by
an
Underlying
Index’s
index
provider
may
affect
the
cor-
responding
Index
Fund’s
ability
to
track
its
Underlying
Index.
The
cost
of
purchases
and
proceeds
from
sales
of
investments,
interest
and
dividend
income
are
trans-
lated
into
U.S.
dollars
using
the
spot
market
rate
of
ex-
change
prevailing
on
the
respective
dates
of
such
trans-
actions.
“Net
realized
gain
(loss)
on

on
the
Statements
of
Operations
include
the
effect
of
changes
in
exchange
rates
between
trade
date
and
settlement
date
on
investment
security
trans-
actions,
foreign

ations.
Unrealized

on
assets
and
lia-
bilities,
other
than

in

which
result
from

have
been
included
in
“Net

ities

Forward
Foreign
Currency
Exchange
Con-
tracts 
Certain
Funds may
enter
into
forward
foreign
currency
exchange
contracts
to
facilitate
local
settlements,
or
to
protect
against
currency
exposure
in
connection
with
its
distributions
to
shareholders
and
in
order
to
protect
against
uncertainty
in
the
level
of
future
foreign
currency
exchange
rates.
The
Funds,
however,
do
not
expect
to
engage
in
currency
transactions
for
speculative
purpos-
es
(e.g.,
for
potential
income
or
capital
gain).
All
forward
foreign
currency
exchange
contracts
held
are
“marked-
to-market”
daily
at
the
applicable
exchange
rates
and
any
resulting
unrealized
gains
or
losses
are
recorded.

by
entering

the

The
difference
between
the
future
foreign
currency
exchange
rates
at
the
date
of
entry
into
the
contract
and
the
rates
at
the
reporting
date
are
included
in
“Net
change
in
unrealized
appreciation
(depreciation)
on
forward
foreign
currency
contracts”
in
the
Statements
of
Operations.
Non-deliverable
forward
foreign
currency
exchange
contracts
are
settled
with
the
counterparty
in
U.S.
Dollars
without
the
delivery
of
for-
eign
currency.
There
are
several
risks
associated
with
these
contracts.
One
risk
is
the
potential
inability
of
counterparties
to
meet
the
terms
of
their
contracts,
and
unanticipated
movements
in
the
value
of
a
foreign
currency
relative
to
the
U.S.
dollar.
The
contractual
amounts
of
forward
foreign
currency
exchange
contracts
do
not
necessarily
represent
the
amounts
potentially
subject
to
risk.
The
measurement
of
the
risks
associated
with
these
instru-
ments
is
meaningful
only
when
all
related
and
offsetting
transactions
are
considered.
The
Statements
of
Oper-
ations
reflect
(i)
realized
gains
or
losses,
if
any,
in
“Net
realized
gain
(loss)
from
settlement
of
forward
foreign
currency
contracts”
and
(ii)
unrealized
gains
or
losses
in
“Net
change
in
unrealized
appreciation
(depreciation)
on
forward
foreign
currency
contracts”.
Forward
foreign
currency
exchange
contracts
are
privately
negotiated
transactions
and
can
have
substantial
price
volatility.
As
a
result,
they
offer
less
protection
against
default
by
the
other
party
than
is
available
for
instruments
traded
on
an
exchange.
The
institutions
that
deal
in
forward
for-
eign
currency
exchange
contracts
are
not
required
to
continue
to
make
markets
in
the
currencies
they
trade,
and
these
markets
can
experience
periods
of
illiquidity.

TBA Transactions 
Certain
Funds
may
seek
to
obtain
exposure
to
U.S.
agency
mortgage-backed
pass-through
securities,
in
whole
or
in
part,
through
the
use
of
TBA
transactions.
In
a
TBA
transaction,
the
buyer
and
seller
agree
upon
general
trade
parameters
such
as
agency,
coupon
rate,
settlement
date,
par
amount
and
price.
The
actual
pools
delivered
generally
are
determined
two
days
prior
to
the
settlement
date.
The
Funds
may
use
TBA
transactions
in
several
ways.
For
example, a
Fund
may
regularly
enter
into
TBA
agreements
and
“roll
over”
such
agree-
ments
prior
to
the
settlement
date
stipulated
in
such
agreements.
This
type
of
TBA
transaction
is
sometimes
known
as
a
“TBA
Roll.”
In
a
TBA
Roll, a
Fund
generally
will
sell
the
obligation
to
purchase
the
pools
stipulated
in
the
TBA
agreement
prior
to
the
stipulated
settlement
date
and
will
enter
into
a
new
TBA
agreement
for
future
delivery
of
pools
of
mortgage-backed
pass-through
se-
curities.
In
addition,
the
Funds
may
enter
into
TBA
agreements
and
settle
such
transactions
on
the
stipulated
settle-
ment
date
by
accepting
actual
receipt
or
delivery
of
the
pools
of
mortgage-backed
securities
stipulated
in
the
TBA
agreement.
Pending
settlement
of
such
contracts,
the
Funds
may
cover their
payment
obligations
at
settle-
ment
by
investing
its
assets
in
liquid,
short-term
instru-
ments
or
cash
equivalents,
or
designate
other
liquid
se-
curities,
which
will
be
marked
to
market
daily.
The
Funds
may
also
cover their
payment
obligations
at
settlement
by
investing
in
shares
of
money
market
funds
advised
by
NTI
or
its
affiliates,
which
will
result
in
the
Funds
as-
suming
their pro
rata
share
of
the
fees
and
expenses
of
the
money
market
funds
in
addition
to
the
Funds'
own
fees
and
expenses.
TBA
Transactions
investments
involve
the
risk
of
loss
if
the
securities
received
are
less
favorable
than
what
was
anticipated
by
the
Funds
when
entering
into
the
TBA
transaction.
TBA
transactions
also
involve
the
risk
that
the
counterparty
will
fail
to
deliver
the
securities,
expos-
ing
the
Funds
to
further
losses.
Default
or
bankruptcy
of
a
counterparty
to
a
TBA
transaction
would
expose
the
Funds
to
possible
losses
because
of
adverse
mar-
ket
action,
expenses
or
delays
in
connection
with
the
purchase
or
sale
of
the
pools
of
mortgage
pass-through
securities
specified
in
the
TBA
transaction.
Whether
or
not
the
Funds
take
delivery
of
the
securities
at
the
ter-
mination
date
of
a

Offsetting
of
Financial
Assets
and

tive
Assets 
The

accounting
policy
with
respect
to
balance
sheet
offsetting
is
that,
absent
an
event
of
default
by
the
counterparty
or
a
termination
of
the

the
International
Swaps
and
Derivatives
Association

and

in

of
Assets
and
Li-
abilities
across
transactions
between
a
Fund
and
the
applicable
counterparty.
In
the
event
of
a
default,
the
agreement
provides
the
right
for
the
non-defaulting
party
to
liquidate
the
collateral
and
calculate
the
net
exposure
to
the

party
or
request

Activity
for
the
fiscal
period
is
measured
by
the
number
of
trades
during
the
fiscal period
and
average
notional

for
foreign

exchange
contracts,
equity

contracts
and

Taxes
and
Distributions 
Each
Fund
has
qualified
and
intends
to
continue
to
qualify
as
a
regulated
investment
company
by
comply-
ing
with
the
requirements
under
Subchapter
M
of
the
Internal
Revenue
Code
of
1986,
as
amended,
which
in-
cludes
distributing
substantially
all
of
its
net
investment
income
and
net
capital
gains
to
shareholders.
Accord-
ingly,
no
provision
for
federal
and
state
income
taxes
is
required
in
the
financial
statements. 
As
of
April
30,
2026,
management
of
the
Funds
has
re-
viewed
all
open
tax
years
and
major
jurisdictions
and
concluded
that
there
is
no
tax
liability
resulting
from
unrecognized
tax
benefits
relating
to
uncertain
income
tax
positions
taken
or
expected
to
be
taken
in
future
tax
returns.
On
an
ongoing
basis
management
will
moni-
tor
the
tax
positions
taken
to
determine
if
adjustment
to
conclusions
are
necessary
based
on
factors
including
but
not
limited
to
further
implementation
on
guidance
expected
from
FASB
and
on-going
analysis
of
tax
law,
regulation,
and
interpretations
thereof.

Investment
Transactions
and
Related
Income
and
Expenses
Throughout
the
reporting
period,
investment
transac-
tions
are
accounted
for
no
later
than
one
business
day
following
the

date.
For
financial
reporting
purpos-
es,
investment
transactions
are
accounted
for
on
the
trade
date
on
the
last
business
day
of
the
reporting
pe-
riod.
Interest
income
is
recognized
on
an
accrual
basis.
Bond
discount
is
accreted
and
premium
is
amortized
using
the
effective
yield
method.
Dividend
income
is
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date,
or
as
soon
as
information
is
available.
Gains
or
losses
realized
on
sales
of
securities
are
determined
using
the
specific
identification
method
by
comparing
the
identified
cost
of
the
security
lot
sold
with
the

Notes
to
the
Financial
Statements
(cont.)
The
Investment
Adviser
has
contractually
agreed
to
reimburse
a
portion
of
the
operating
expenses
of
each
Fund
(other
than
Rule
12b-1
fees,
tax
expenses,
ex-
traordinary
expenses,
and
acquired
fund
fees
and
ex-
penses
(“AFFE”))
so
the
“Total
Annual
Fund
Operating
Expenses
After
Expense
Reimbursement”
do
not
ex-
ceed
the
Fund’s
Management
Fee
plus
(+)
0.0049%.
In
the
case
of
the
FlexShares
®
Core
Select
Bond
Fund,
the
Investment
Adviser
has
contractually
agreed
to
waive
Management
Fees
or
reimburse
certain
expenses
in
an
amount
equal
to
the
sum
of
(a)
any
AFFE
incurred
by
the
Fund
that
are
attributable
to
the
Fund’s
investment
in
Underlying
Funds
managed
by
NTI
or
an
investment
adviser
controlling,
controlled
by,
or
under
common
control
with
NTI
(“Affiliated
Funds”);
and
(b)
0.05%
or
such
lesser
amount
in
AFFE
incurred
by
the
Fund
that
are
attributable
to
the
Fund’s
investment
in
Underlying
Funds
that
are
not
Affiliated
Funds.
AFFE
are
expenses
incurred
indirectly
by
the
Fund
through
its
ownership
of
shares
in
other
investment
companies.
Because
AFFE
are
not
direct
expenses
of
a
Fund,
they
are
not
reflected
on
a
Fund’s
financial
statements.
The
contractual
ex-
pense
reimbursement
arrangements
are
expected
to
continue
until
at
least
March
1,
2027
and
will
continue
automatically
thereafter
for
periods
of
one
year
unless
terminated,
as
to
any
succeeding
renewal
year,
by
ei-
ther
party
upon
60
days’
written
notice
prior
to
the
end
of
the
current
term.
The
Board
may
terminate
the
con-
tractual
expense
reimbursement
agreements
discussed
above
with
respect
to
any
Fund
at
any
time
if
it
deter-
mines
that
it
is
in
the
best
interest
of
a
Fund
and
its
shareholders.
These
expenses
and
the
reimbursements
are
shown
as
“Investment
advisory
fees
reimbursed”
on
the
Statements
of
Operations.
The
Investment
Adviser
may
voluntarily
waive
or
reim-
burse
additional
management
fees
or
expenses.
Any
such
additional
voluntary
expense
reimbursement
or
fee
waiver
could
be
implemented,
increased
or
decreased,
or
discontinued
at
any
time.
Amounts
waived
or
reim-
bursed
by
the
Investment
Adviser
pursuant
to
voluntary
or
contractual
agreements
discussed
above
may
not
be
recouped
by
the
Investment
Adviser.
These
waivers
and/or
reimbursements
are
shown
as
“Investment
advi-
sory
fees
reimbursed”
on
the

of

Issuance
and
Redemption
of
Fund
Shares 
Each
Fund
only
issues
and

deposit
or

Units,
each
of
which

com-
prised

may
be
paid
by

Guarantees
and
Indemnifications 
In
the
normal
course
of
business
each
Fund
enters
into
contracts
with
third-party
service
providers
that
contain
a
variety
of
representations
and
warranties
and
that
provide
general
indemnifications.
Additionally,
under
the
Funds’
organizational
documents,
the
officers
and
trustees
are
indemnified
against
certain
liabilities
arising
out
of
the
performance
of
their
duties
to
the
Funds.
The
Funds’
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
unknown,
as
it
involves
possible
future
claims
that
may
or
may
not
be
made
against
the
Funds.

An
operating
segment
is
defined
in
ASU
2023-07
as
a
component
of
a
public
entity
that
engages
in
business
activities
from
which
it
may
recognize
reve-
nues
and
incur
expenses,
has
operating
results
that
are
regularly
reviewed
by
the
public
entity’s
chief
operat-
ing
decision
maker
(“CODM”)
to
make
decisions
about
resources
to
be
allocated
to
the
segment
and
assess
its
performance,
and
has
discrete
financial
information
available.
NTI
acts
as
the
CODM.
Each
Fund
within
the
Trust
represents
a
single
operating
segment,
as
the
CODM
monitors
the
operating
results
of
each
Fund
as
a
whole
and
each
Fund’s
long-term
strategic
asset
al-
location
is
determined
in
accordance
with
the
terms
of
its
prospectus,
based
on
a
defined
investment
strate-
gy
which
is
executed
by
the
respective
Fund’s
portfolio
managers
as
a
team.
The
financial
information
in
the
form
of
a
Fund’s
total
returns,
expense
ratios,
changes
in
net
assets
resulting
from
operations,
and
subscrip-
tions
and
redemptions
which
are
used
by
the
CODM
to
assess
the
segment’s
performance
and
to
make
re-
source
allocation
decisions
for
each
Fund
(as
a
single
segment),
is
consistent
with
that
presented
within
each
Fund’s
financial
statements.
Segment
assets
are
re-
flected
on
the

Global Instability 
Unexpected
political,
regulatory
and
diplomatic
events
and
military
conflicts
around
the
world
may
affect
inves-
tor
and
consumer
confidence
and
may
adversely
impact
global
and
domestic
financial
markets
and
the
broader
economy. Such
conflicts
have
caused,
and
could
contin-
ue
to
cause,
significant
market
disruptions
and
volatility
within
specific
markets
and
globally.
