Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager 2070 Lifetime Portfolio (Class 1/JHOPX) returned 20.68% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. Defensive equities also generated positive returns.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by short-term bonds and emerging market debt.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, a small position in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) was adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Fund Performance

The following graph compares the initial and subsequent account values at the end of each of the most recently completed 10 fiscal years of the fund (or for the life of the fund, if shorter). It assumes a $10,000 initial investment in the fund and in an appropriate, broad-based securities market index for the same period.

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager 2065 Lifetime Portfolio (Class A/JAAWX) returned 20.04% (excluding sales charges) for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. Defensive equities also generated positive returns.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by short-term bonds and emerging market debt.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager 2065 Lifetime Portfolio (Class I/JABSX) returned 20.32% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. Defensive equities also generated positive returns.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by short-term bonds and emerging market debt.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, a small position in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) was adversely affected by rising yields.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager 2065 Lifetime Portfolio (Class R6/JABEX) returned 20.49% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. Defensive equities also generated positive returns.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by short-term bonds and emerging market debt.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, a small position in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) was adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Fund Performance

The following graph compares the initial and subsequent account values at the end of each of the most recently completed 10 fiscal years of the fund (or for the life of the fund, if shorter). It assumes a $1,000,000 initial investment in the fund and in an appropriate, broad-based securities market index for the same period.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager 2060 Lifetime Portfolio (Class R4/JROUX) returned 20.17% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. Defensive equities also generated positive returns.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by short-term bonds and emerging market debt.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, a small position in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) was adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Fund Performance

The following graph compares the initial and subsequent account values at the end of each of the most recently completed 10 fiscal years of the fund (or for the life of the fund, if shorter). It assumes a $10,000 initial investment in the fund and in an appropriate, broad-based securities market index for the same period.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager 2055 Lifetime Portfolio (Class I/JHRTX) returned 20.40% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. Defensive equities also generated positive returns.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by short-term bonds and emerging market debt.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, a small position in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) was adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Fund Performance

The following graph compares the initial and subsequent account values at the end of each of the most recently completed 10 fiscal years of the fund (or for the life of the fund, if shorter).

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager 2055 Lifetime Portfolio (Class R6/JLKTX) returned 20.41% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. Defensive equities also generated positive returns.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by short-term bonds and emerging market debt.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, a small position in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) was adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Fund Performance

The following graph compares the initial and subsequent account values at the end of each of the most recently completed 10 fiscal years of the fund (or for the life of the fund, if shorter). It assumes a $1,000,000 initial investment in the fund and in an appropriate, broad-based securities market index for the same period.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager 2050 Lifetime Portfolio (Class R4/JLKGX) returned 20.13% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. Defensive equities also generated positive returns. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for energy stocks and the metals & mining sector.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by short-term bonds and emerging market debt.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Fund Performance

The following graph compares the initial and subsequent account values at the end of each of the most recently completed 10 fiscal years of the fund (or for the life of the fund, if shorter). It assumes a $10,000 initial investment in the fund and in an appropriate, broad-based securities market index for the same period.

Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. Defensive equities also generated positive returns. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for energy stocks and the metals & mining sector.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by intermediate-term bonds and emerging markets debt. Holdings in high yield bonds and short-term bonds aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager 2045 Lifetime Portfolio (Class I/JHROX) returned 19.30% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager 2045 Lifetime Portfolio (Class R6/JLJIX) returned 19.41% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. Defensive equities also generated positive returns. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for energy stocks and the metals & mining sector.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by intermediate-term bonds and emerging markets debt. Holdings in high yield bonds and short-term bonds aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Fund Performance

The following graph compares the initial and subsequent account values at the end of each of the most recently completed 10 fiscal years of the fund (or for the life of the fund, if shorter). It assumes a $1,000,000 initial investment in the fund and in an appropriate, broad-based securities market index for the same period.

Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. Defensive equities also generated positive returns. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for energy stocks and the metals & mining sector.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by intermediate-term bonds and emerging markets debt. Holdings in high yield bonds and short-term bonds aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in international real estate investment trusts and U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager 2040 Lifetime Portfolio (Class R4/JLIGX) returned 17.74% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager 2035 Lifetime Portfolio (Class A/JLHAX) returned 15.77% (excluding sales charges) for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. Defensive equities also generated positive returns. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for energy stocks and the metals & mining sector.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by intermediate-term bonds and emerging markets debt. Holdings in high yield bonds and short-term bonds aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in international real estate investment trusts and U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

The following graph compares the initial and subsequent account values at the end of each of the most recently completed 10 fiscal years of the fund (or for the life of the fund, if shorter).

While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. Defensive equities also generated positive returns. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for energy stocks and the metals & mining sector.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by intermediate-term bonds and emerging markets debt. Holdings in high yield bonds and short-term bonds aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in international real estate investment trusts and U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager 2030 Lifetime Portfolio (Class R2/JLFEX) returned 13.61% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. Defensive equities also generated positive returns. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for energy stocks and the metals & mining sector.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by intermediate-term bonds and emerging markets debt. Holdings in short-term bonds, high yield bonds, multi-sector bonds, short-term U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities, and bank loans aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Fund Performance

The following graph compares the initial and subsequent account values at the end of each of the most recently completed 10 fiscal years of the fund (or for the life of the fund, if shorter). It assumes a $10,000 initial investment in the fund and in an appropriate, broad-based securities market index for the same period.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager 2025 Lifetime Portfolio (Class 1/JLEOX) returned 12.13% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. Defensive equities also generated positive returns. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for energy stocks and the metals & mining sector.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by intermediate-term bonds and emerging markets debt. Holdings in short-term bonds, high yield bonds, multi-sector bonds, short-term U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities, and bank loans aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Fund Performance

The following graph compares the initial and subsequent account values at the end of each of the most recently completed 10 fiscal years of the fund (or for the life of the fund, if shorter).

Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing.

International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. Defensive equities also generated positive returns. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for energy stocks and the metals & mining sector.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by intermediate-term bonds and emerging markets debt. Holdings in short-term bonds, high yield bonds, multi-sector bonds, short-term U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities, and bank loans aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager 2025 Lifetime Portfolio (Class R5/JLEHX) returned 12.13% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. Defensive equities also generated positive returns. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for energy stocks and the metals & mining sector.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by intermediate-term bonds and emerging markets debt. Holdings in short-term bonds, high yield bonds, multi-sector bonds, short-term U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities, and bank loans aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Fund Performance

The following graph compares the initial and subsequent account values at the end of each of the most recently completed 10 fiscal years of the fund (or for the life of the fund, if shorter). It assumes a $10,000 initial investment in the fund and in an appropriate, broad-based securities market index for the same period.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager 2020 Lifetime Portfolio (Class I/JHRVX) returned 10.80% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. Defensive equities also generated positive returns. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for energy stocks and the metals & mining sector.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by intermediate-term bonds and emerging markets debt. Holdings in short-term bonds, high yield bonds, multi-sector bonds, short-term U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities, and bank loans aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager 2020 Lifetime Portfolio (Class R6/JLDIX) returned 10.87% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. Defensive equities also generated positive returns. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for energy stocks and the metals & mining sector.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by intermediate-term bonds and emerging markets debt. Holdings in short-term bonds, high yield bonds, multi-sector bonds, short-term U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities, and bank loans aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager 2015 Lifetime Portfolio (Class 1/JLBOX) returned 9.53% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results. Defensive equities also generated positive returns. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for energy stocks and the metals & mining sector.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by intermediate-term bonds and emerging markets debt. Holdings in short-term bonds, high yield bonds, multi-sector bonds, short-term U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities, and bank loans aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager 2015 Lifetime Portfolio (Class R4/JLBGX) returned 9.41% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results. Defensive equities also generated positive returns. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for energy stocks and the metals & mining sector.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by intermediate-term bonds and emerging markets debt. Holdings in short-term bonds, high yield bonds, multi-sector bonds, short-term U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities, and bank loans aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results. Defensive equities also generated positive returns. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for energy stocks and the metals & mining sector.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by intermediate-term bonds and emerging markets debt. Holdings in short-term bonds, high yield bonds, multi-sector bonds, short-term U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities, and bank loans aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in international real estate investment trusts and U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager 2010 Lifetime Portfolio (Class I/JHRLX) returned 8.44% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made a significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results. Defensive equities also generated positive returns. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for energy stocks and the metals & mining sector.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by intermediate-term bonds and emerging markets debt. Holdings in short-term bonds, high yield bonds, multi-sector bonds, short-term U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities, and bank loans aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in international real estate investment trusts and U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Fund Performance

The following graph compares the initial and subsequent account values at the end of each of the most recently completed 10 fiscal years of the fund (or for the life of the fund, if shorter). It assumes a $250,000 initial investment in the fund and in an appropriate, broad-based securities market index for the same period.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager Lifestyle Aggressive Portfolio (Class 1/JILAX) returned 20.67% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made the most significant contribution to absolute performance, including the fund’s sizable allocation to large caps. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for the energy and metals & mining sectors.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation also contributed, albeit to a much lesser extent than equities due to its lower return and modest portfolio weighting.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager Lifestyle Aggressive Portfolio (Class A/JALAX) returned 20.18% (excluding sales charges) for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made the most significant contribution to absolute performance, including the fund’s sizable allocation to large caps. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for the energy and metals & mining sectors.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation also contributed, albeit to a much lesser extent than equities due to its lower return and modest portfolio weighting.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Fund Performance

The following graph compares the initial and subsequent account values at the end of each of the most recently completed 10 fiscal years of the fund (or for the life of the fund, if shorter). It assumes a $10,000 initial investment in the fund and in an appropriate, broad-based securities market index for the same period.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager Lifestyle Aggressive Portfolio (Class R4/JSLAX) returned 20.46% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made the most significant contribution to absolute performance, including the fund’s sizable allocation to large caps. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for the energy and metals & mining sectors.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation also contributed, albeit to a much lesser extent than equities due to its lower return and modest portfolio weighting.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager Lifestyle Aggressive Portfolio (Class R5/JTLAX) returned 20.64% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made the most significant contribution to absolute performance, including the fund’s sizable allocation to large caps. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for the energy and metals & mining sectors.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation also contributed, albeit to a much lesser extent than equities due to its lower return and modest portfolio weighting.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Fund Performance

The following graph compares the initial and subsequent account values at the end of each of the most recently completed 10 fiscal years of the fund (or for the life of the fund, if shorter). It assumes a $10,000 initial investment in the fund and in an appropriate, broad-based securities market index for the same period.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager Lifestyle Growth Portfolio (Class C/JCLGX) returned 16.55% (excluding sales charges) for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made the most significant contribution to absolute performance, including the fund’s sizable allocation to large caps. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for the energy and metals & mining sectors.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation also contributed, led by intermediate-term bonds and emerging markets debt.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager Lifestyle Growth Portfolio (Class R5/JTLGX) returned 17.82% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made the most significant contribution to absolute performance, including the fund’s sizable allocation to large caps. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for the energy and metals & mining sectors.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation also contributed, led by intermediate-term bonds and emerging markets debt.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Fund Performance

The following graph compares the initial and subsequent account values at the end of each of the most recently completed 10 fiscal years of the fund (or for the life of the fund, if shorter). It assumes a $10,000 initial investment in the fund and in an appropriate, broad-based securities market index for the same period.

The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for the energy and metals & mining sectors.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation also contributed, led by intermediate-term bonds, emerging markets debt, and multi-sector bonds. Holdings in high yield bonds, bank loans, and short-term bonds aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager Lifestyle Balanced Portfolio (Class C/JCLBX) returned 12.72% (excluding sales charges) for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made the most significant contribution to absolute performance, including the fund’s sizable allocation to large caps. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for the energy and metals & mining sectors.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation also contributed, led by intermediate-term bonds, emerging markets debt, and multi-sector bonds. Holdings in high yield bonds, bank loans, and short-term bonds aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Fund Performance

The following graph compares the initial and subsequent account values at the end of each of the most recently completed 10 fiscal years of the fund (or for the life of the fund, if shorter). It assumes a $10,000 initial investment in the fund and in an appropriate, broad-based securities market index for the same period.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager Lifestyle Balanced Portfolio (Class R5/JTSBX) returned 13.91% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made the most significant contribution to absolute performance, including the fund’s sizable allocation to large caps. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for the energy and metals & mining sectors.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation also contributed, led by intermediate-term bonds, emerging markets debt, and multi-sector bonds. Holdings in high yield bonds, bank loans, and short-term bonds aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Fund Performance

The following graph compares the initial and subsequent account values at the end of each of the most recently completed 10 fiscal years of the fund (or for the life of the fund, if shorter). It assumes a $10,000 initial investment in the fund and in an appropriate, broad-based securities market index for the same period.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager Lifestyle Moderate Portfolio (Class A/JALMX) returned 9.73% (excluding sales charges) for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made the most significant contribution to absolute performance, including the fund’s sizable allocation to large caps. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for the energy and metals & mining sectors.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation also contributed, led by intermediate-term bonds, multi-sector bonds, and emerging markets debt. Holdings in high yield bonds, short-term bonds, and bank loans aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager Lifestyle Moderate Portfolio (Class C/JCLMX) returned 9.00% (excluding sales charges) for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made the most significant contribution to absolute performance, including the fund’s sizable allocation to large caps. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for the energy and metals & mining sectors.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation also contributed, led by intermediate-term bonds, multi-sector bonds, and emerging markets debt. Holdings in high yield bonds, short-term bonds, and bank loans aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Fund Performance

The following graph compares the initial and subsequent account values at the end of each of the most recently completed 10 fiscal years of the fund (or for the life of the fund, if shorter). It assumes a $10,000 initial investment in the fund and in an appropriate, broad-based securities market index for the same period.

Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made the most significant contribution to absolute performance, including the fund’s sizable allocation to large caps. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. The real assets portfolio was an additional contributor with strong returns for the energy and metals & mining sectors.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation also contributed, led by intermediate-term bonds, multi-sector bonds, and emerging markets debt. Holdings in high yield bonds, short-term bonds, and bank loans aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

Specific positions | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, the majority of the fund’s holdings recorded a gain. However, small positions in U.S. Treasury STRIPS (Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities) were adversely affected by rising yields.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Multimanager Lifestyle Conservative Portfolio (Class I/JTOIX) returned 6.31% for the year ended August 31, 2026. Global equities produced sizable gains in the 12-month period that ended on August 31, 2026. Investors were encouraged by the favorable combination of healthy economic growth trends, robust corporate earnings, and generally supportive central bank policies, together with optimism about artificial intelligence. While technology stocks performed very well, the value style outpaced growth on a global basis and contributed meaningfully to the markets’ strong showing. Emerging market equities also posted outsized returns. Bonds registered more modest gains, led by credit-oriented investments. Income was the primary contributor to total returns for fixed income instruments, as prices came under pressure from concerns about persistent inflation, global conflicts, energy prices, and mounting government debt across the developed world.

TOP PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTORS

Equity allocation | U.S. equities made the most significant contribution to absolute performance, led by large cap equities. International developed market equities further helped results, as did emerging market stocks. Defensive equities also generated positive returns.

Bond funds | The fixed-income allocation contributed positively, led by intermediate-term bonds and emerging markets debt. Holdings in multi-sector bonds, high yield bonds, short-term bonds, bank loans, and short-term U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities aided returns as well.

TOP PERFORMANCE DETRACTORS

No detractors | At a time of positive returns for most segments of the financial markets, none of the fund’s holdings detracted from absolute performance.

The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change. They are not meant as investment advice.

Fund Performance

The following graph compares the initial and subsequent account values at the end of each of the most recently completed 10 fiscal years of the fund (or for the life of the fund, if shorter). It assumes a $250,000 initial investment in the fund and in an appropriate, broad-based securities market index for the same period.

Notes to financial statements

Note 1—Organization

John Hancock Funds II (the Trust) is an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act). It is a series company with multiple investment series, thirteen of which are presented in this report (collectively, Multimanager Lifetime Portfolios, or the portfolios and individually, the portfolio).  The portfolios operate as “funds of funds” that may invest in affiliated underlying funds of the Trust, other funds in the John Hancock group of funds complex, non-John Hancock funds and certain other permitted investments.

The portfolios may offer multiple classes of shares. The shares currently offered by the portfolios are detailed in the Statements of assets and liabilities. Class A shares are offered to all investors. Class I shares are offered to institutions and certain investors. Class R2, Class R4 and Class R5 shares are available only to certain retirement and 529 plans. Class R6 shares are only available to certain retirement plans, institutions and other investors. Class 1 shares are offered only to certain affiliates of Manulife Financial Corporation. Shareholders of each class have exclusive voting rights to matters that affect that class. The distribution and service fees, if any, and transfer agent fees for each class may differ.

The investment objective of each portfolio is to seek high total return through the portfolio’s target retirement date, with a greater focus on income beyond the target date. Total return, commonly understood as the combination of income and capital appreciation, includes interest, capital gains, dividends, and distributions realized over a given period of time.

The accounting policies of the underlying funds in which the portfolios invest are outlined in the underlying funds’ shareholder reports, which include the underlying funds’ financial statements.  These are available on the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) website at sec.gov.  John Hancock underlying funds’ shareholder reports are also available without charge by calling 800-225-5291 or visiting jhinvestments.com. The underlying funds are not covered by this report.

Note 2—Significant accounting policies

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions as of the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those differences could be significant. The portfolios qualify as investment companies under Topic 946 of Accounting Standards Codification of US GAAP.

Events or transactions occurring after the end of the fiscal period through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the portfolios:

Security valuation. Investments are stated at value as of the scheduled close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally at 4:00 P.M., Eastern Time. In case of emergency or other disruption resulting in the NYSE not opening for trading or the NYSE closing at a time other than the regularly scheduled close, the net asset value (NAV) may be determined as of the regularly scheduled close of the NYSE pursuant to the Valuation Policies and Procedures of the Advisor, John Hancock Investment Management LLC, the portfolios’ valuation designee.

In order to value the securities, the portfolios use the following valuation techniques: Investments in affiliated underlying funds and other open-end mutual funds, including John Hancock Collateral Trust, are valued at their respective NAVs each business day. Equity securities, including exchange-traded or closed-end funds, are typically valued at the last sale price or official closing price on the exchange or principal market where the security trades. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, the securities are valued using the last available bid price. Debt obligations are typically valued based on evaluated prices provided by an independent pricing vendor. Independent pricing vendors utilize matrix pricing, which takes into account factors such as institutional-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other market data, as well as broker supplied prices. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars based on foreign currency exchange rates supplied by an independent pricing vendor.  

In certain instances, the Pricing Committee of the Advisor may determine to value equity securities using prices obtained from another exchange or market if trading on the exchange or market on which prices are typically obtained did not open for trading as scheduled, or if trading closed earlier than scheduled, and trading occurred as normal on another exchange or market.

Other portfolio securities and assets, for which reliable market quotations are not readily available, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Pricing Committee following procedures established by the Advisor and adopted by the Board of Trustees. The frequency with which these fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and fair value of securities may differ significantly from the value that would have been used had a ready market for such securities existed.

The portfolios use a three tier hierarchy to prioritize the pricing assumptions, referred to as inputs, used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. Level 1 includes securities valued using quoted prices in active markets for identical securities, including registered investment companies. Level 2 includes securities valued using other significant observable inputs. Observable inputs may include quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds and credit risk. Prices for securities valued using these inputs are received from independent pricing vendors and brokers and are based on an evaluation of the inputs described. Level 3 includes securities valued using significant unobservable inputs when market prices are not readily available or reliable, including the Advisor’s assumptions in determining the fair value of investments. Factors used in determining value may include market or issuer specific events or trends, changes in interest rates and credit quality. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. Changes in valuation techniques and related inputs may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy.

Level 3 includes securities valued at $0. Refer to Portfolios’ investments.

Inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are securities that generally have a lower coupon interest rate fixed at issuance but whose principal value is periodically adjusted based on a rate of inflation, such as the Consumer Price Index. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, interest is paid on the inflation adjusted principal value as described above. Increases in the principal amount of these securities are recorded as interest income. Decreases in the principal amount of these securities may reduce interest income to the extent of income previously recorded. If these decreases are in excess of income previously recorded, an adjustment to the cost of the security is made.

Stripped securities. Stripped securities are financial instruments structured to separate principal and interest cash flows so that one class receives principal payments from the underlying assets (PO or principal only), while the other class receives the interest cash flows (IO or interest only). Both PO and IO investments represent an interest in the cash flows of an underlying stripped security. If the underlying assets experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, the portfolios may fail to fully recover its initial investment in an IO security. The market value of these securities can be extremely volatile in response to changes in interest rates or prepayments on the underlying securities. In addition, these securities present additional credit risk such that the portfolios may not receive all or part of its principal or interest payments because the borrower or issuer has defaulted on its obligation.

Security transactions and related investment income. Investment security transactions are accounted for on a trade date plus one basis for daily NAV calculations. However, for financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are reported on trade date. Interest income is accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization/accretion of premiums/discounts on debt securities. Debt obligations may be placed in a non-accrual status and related interest income may be reduced by stopping current accruals and writing off interest receivable when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful. Capital gain distributions from underlying funds are recorded on ex-date and reflected as realized gains. Dividend income is recorded on ex-date, except for dividends of certain foreign securities where the dividend may not be known until after the ex-date. In those cases, dividend income, net of withholding taxes, is recorded when the portfolio becomes aware of the dividends. Non-cash dividends, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and may include proceeds from litigation. Return of capital distributions from underlying funds, if any, are treated as a reduction of cost.  

Overdraft. The portfolios may have the ability to borrow from banks for temporary or emergency purposes, including meeting redemption requests that otherwise might require the untimely sale of securities. Pursuant to the portfolios’ custodian agreement, the custodian may loan money to the portfolios to make properly authorized payments. The portfolios are obligated to repay the custodian for any overdraft, including any related costs or expenses. The custodian may have a lien, security interest or security entitlement in any portfolio property that is not otherwise segregated or pledged, to the extent of any overdraft, and to the maximum extent permitted by law. Overdrafts at period end, if any, are presented under the caption Due to custodian in the Statements of assets and liabilities.

Line of credit. The portfolios and other affiliated funds have entered into a syndicated line of credit agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon as the administrative agent that enables them to participate in a $1 billion unsecured committed line of credit, which is in effect through July 12, 2027 unless extended or renewed. Excluding commitments designated for certain funds and subject to the needs of all other affiliated funds, a portfolio can borrow up to an aggregate commitment amount of $750 million, subject to asset coverage and other limitations as specified in the agreement. Prior to July 13, 2026, a similar syndicated line of credit agreement was held with Citibank N.A. A commitment fee payable at the end of each calendar quarter, based on the average daily unused portion of each line of credit, is charged to each participating portfolio based on an asset-based allocation and is reflected in Other expenses on the Statements of operations. For the year ended August 31, 2026, the portfolios had no borrowings under the line of credit.

Commitment fees for the year ended August 31, 2026 were as follows:

Portfolio Commitment fee
Multimanager 2070 Lifetime Portfolio   $24
Multimanager 2065 Lifetime Portfolio   767
Multimanager 2060 Lifetime Portfolio   1,739

Expenses. Within the John Hancock group of funds complex, expenses that are directly attributable to an individual portfolio are allocated to such portfolio. Expenses that are not readily attributable to a specific portfolio are allocated among all portfolios in an equitable manner, taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and each portfolio’s relative net assets. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.The Multimanager 2070 Lifetime Portfolio incurred offering costs of $96,939 which are amortized over the portfolio’s first year of operations. During the year ended August 31, 2026, $62,944 of offering costs were expensed and are included in Offering costs within the Statements of Operations.

Class allocations. Income, common expenses and realized and unrealized gains (losses) are determined at the portfolio level and allocated daily to each class of shares based on the net assets of the class. Class-specific expenses, such as distribution and service fees, if any, and transfer agent fees, for all classes, are charged daily at the class level based on the net assets of each class and the specific expense rates applicable to each class.

Federal income taxes. Each portfolio intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and will not be subject to federal income tax on taxable income that is distributed to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

As of August 31, 2026, the portfolios had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, derecognition or disclosure. The portfolios’ federal tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years.

For federal income tax purposes, the costs of investments owned on August 31, 2026, including short-term investments, were as follows:

Distributions paid by the portfolios with respect to each class of shares are calculated in the same manner, at the same time and in the same amount, except for the effect of class level expenses that may be applied differently to each class. As of August 31, 2026, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Multimanager 2010 Lifetime Portfolio   2,349,484   3,098,699

Such distributions and distributable earnings, on a tax basis, if any, are determined in conformity with income tax regulations, which may differ from US GAAP. Distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits, if any, are reported in the portfolios’ financial statements as a return of capital. Short-term gains from underlying funds are treated as ordinary income for tax purposes.

Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences at fiscal year end. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences, if any, will reverse in a subsequent period. Book-tax differences are primarily attributable to wash sale loss deferrals.

Note 3—Guarantees and indemnifications

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its Officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust, including the portfolios. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

Note 4—Fees and transactions with affiliates

John Hancock Investment Management LLC (the Advisor) serves as investment advisor for the portfolios. John Hancock Investment Management Distributors LLC (the Distributor), an affiliate of the Advisor, serves as principal underwriter of the portfolios. The Advisor and the Distributor are indirect, principally owned subsidiaries of John Hancock Life Insurance Company (U.S.A.), which in turn is a subsidiary of Manulife Financial Corporation.

Management fee. The portfolios have an investment management agreement with the Advisor under which the portfolios pay a daily management fee to the Advisor as detailed below. The Advisor has a subadvisory agreement with Manulife Investment Management (US) LLC, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Manulife Financial Corporation and an affiliate of the Advisor. The portfolios are not responsible for payment of the subadvisory fees.

The management fee has two components: (1) a fee on assets invested in a fund of the Trust or John Hancock Funds III (JHF III) (Assets in a fund of the Trust or JHF III); and (2) a fee on assets invested in investments other than a fund of the Trust or JHF III (Other assets). Aggregate net assets include the net assets of the portfolios, similar portfolios of John Hancock Variable Insurance Trust (JHVIT), and similar portfolios of the Trust. JHVIT funds are advised by an affiliate of the Advisor, John Hancock Variable Trust Advisers LLC and are distributed by an affiliate of the Advisor, John Hancock Distributors, LLC.

Management fees are determined in accordance with the following schedule:

  First $7.5 billion of aggregate net assets Excess over $7.5 billion of aggregate net assets
Assets in a fund of the Trust or JHF III 0.060% 0.050%
Other assets 0.510% 0.500%

This agreement expires on December 31, 2026, unless renewed by mutual agreement of the portfolios and the advisor based upon a determination that this is appropriate under the circumstances at that time. 

Payments under this arrangement are intended to reimburse the portfolios for a portion of the indirect net expenses associated with the portfolios’ investments in underlying funds. Amounts received in excess of portfolio level operating expenses, if any, are included as Other income received from advisor in the Statements of operations.

Additionally, the Advisor has voluntarily agreed to waive its management fee for each portfolio so that the aggregate management fee retained by the Advisor with respect to both the portfolio and its underlying investments (after payment of subadvisory fees) does not exceed 0.51% of the portfolio’s first $7.5 billion of average net assets and 0.50% of the portfolio’s average net assets in excess of $7.5 billion. The Advisor may terminate this voluntary waiver at any time upon notice to the Trust.

Transfer agent fees. The John Hancock group of funds has a complex-wide transfer agent agreement with John Hancock Signature Services, Inc. (Signature Services), an affiliate of the Advisor. The transfer agent fees paid to Signature Services are determined based on the cost to Signature Services (Signature Services Cost) of providing recordkeeping services. It also includes out-of-pocket expenses, including payments made to third-parties for recordkeeping services provided to their clients who invest in one or more John Hancock funds. In addition, Signature Services Cost may be reduced by certain fees that Signature Services receives in connection with retirement and small accounts. Signature Services Cost is calculated monthly and allocated, as applicable, to three categories of share classes: Retail Share Classes of Non-Municipal Bond Funds, Retirement Share Classes and Retail Share Classes of Municipal Bond Funds. Within each of these categories, the applicable costs are allocated to the affected John Hancock affiliated funds and/or classes, based on the relative average daily net assets.

Note 8—Segment reporting

The management committee of the Advisor acts as the portfolios’ chief operating decision maker (the CODM), assessing performance and making decisions about resource allocation. Each portfolio represents a single operating segment, as the CODM monitors and assesses the operating results of the portfolio as a whole, and the portfolio’s long-term strategic asset allocation is managed in accordance with the terms of its prospectus, based on a defined investment strategy which is executed by the portfolio management team of the portfolio’s subadvisor. Segment assets are reflected in the Statements of assets and liabilities as “Total assets”, which consists primarily of total investments at value.

EVALUATION OF ADVISORY AND SUBADVISORY AGREEMENTS BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES


This section describes the evaluation by the Board of Trustees (the Board) of John Hancock Funds II (the Trust) of the Advisory Agreement (the Advisory Agreement) and the Subadvisory Agreement (the Subadvisory Agreement) with respect to each of the portfolios of the Trust included in this report (the Funds).  The Advisory Agreement and Subadvisory Agreement are collectively referred to as the Agreements. Prior to the June 22-25, 2026 meeting at which the Agreements were approved, the Board also discussed and considered information regarding the proposed continuation of the Agreements at a meeting held on May 26-28, 2026. The Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust as defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act) (the Independent Trustees) also met separately to evaluate and discuss the information presented, including with counsel to the Independent Trustees and a third-party consulting firm.

Approval of Advisory and Subadvisory Agreements

At meetings held on June 22-25, 2026, the Board, including the Trustees who are not parties to any Agreement or considered to be interested persons of the Trust under the 1940 Act, reapproved for an annual period, the continuation of the Advisory Agreement between the Trust and John Hancock Investment Management LLC (the Advisor) and the Subadvisory Agreement between the Advisor and Manulife Investment Management (US) (the Subadvisor) with respect to each of the Funds identified in Appendix A.

In considering the Advisory Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreement with respect to each Fund, the Board received in advance of the meetings a variety of materials relating to each Fund, the Advisor and the Subadvisor, including comparative performance, fee and expense information for peer groups of similar funds prepared by an independent third-party provider of fund data; performance information for the Funds’ benchmark indices; and, with respect to the Subadvisor, comparative performance information for comparably managed accounts, as applicable; and other information provided by the Advisor and the Subadvisor regarding the nature, extent, and quality of services provided by the Advisor and the Subadvisor under their respective Agreements, as well as information regarding the Advisor’s revenues and costs of providing services to the Funds and any compensation paid to affiliates of the Advisor. At the meetings at which the renewal of the Advisory Agreement and Subadvisory Agreement are considered, particular focus is given to information concerning Fund performance, comparability of fees and total expenses, and profitability. However, the Board noted that the evaluation process with respect to the Advisor and the Subadvisor is an ongoing one. In this regard, the Board also took into account discussions with management and information provided to the Board (including its various committees) at prior meetings with respect to the services provided by the Advisor and the Subadvisor to the Funds, including quarterly performance reports prepared by management containing reviews of investment results and prior presentations from the Subadvisor with respect to the Funds. The information received and considered by the Board in connection with the May and June meetings and throughout the year was both written and oral. The Board noted the affiliation of the Subadvisor with the Advisor, noting any potential conflicts of interest. The Board also considered the nature, quality, and extent of the non-advisory services, if any, to be provided to the Funds by the Advisor’s affiliates, including distribution services. The Board considered the Advisory Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreement separately in the course of its review. In doing so, the Board noted the respective roles of the Advisor and Subadvisor in providing services to the Funds. In addition, although the Board approved the renewal of the Agreements for all the Funds at the June meeting, the Board considered each Fund separately.

Throughout the process, the Board asked questions of and requested additional information from management. The Board is assisted by counsel for the Trust and the Independent Trustees are also separately assisted by independent legal counsel throughout the process. The Independent Trustees also received a memorandum from their independent legal counsel discussing the legal standards for their consideration of the proposed continuation of the Agreements and discussed the proposed continuation of the Agreements in private sessions with their independent legal counsel at which no representatives of management were present.

Approval of Advisory Agreement

In approving the Advisory Agreement with respect to each Fund, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, considered a variety of factors, including those discussed below. The Board also considered other factors (including conditions and trends prevailing generally in the economy, the securities markets and the industry) and did not treat any single factor as determinative, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to different factors. The Board’s conclusions may be based in part on its consideration of the advisory and subadvisory arrangements in prior years and on the Board’s ongoing regular review of Fund performance and operations throughout the year.

Nature, extent, and quality of services. Among the information received by the Board from the Advisor relating to the nature, extent, and quality of services provided to the Funds, the Board reviewed information provided by the Advisor relating to its operations and personnel, descriptions of its organizational and management structure, and information regarding the Advisor’s compliance and regulatory history, including its Form ADV. The Board also noted that on a regular basis it receives and reviews information from the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) regarding the Funds’ compliance policies and procedures established pursuant to Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act. The Board observed that the scope of services provided by the Advisor, and of the undertakings required of the Advisor in connection with those services, including maintaining and monitoring its own and the Funds’ compliance programs, risk management programs, liquidity risk management programs, derivatives risk management programs, and cybersecurity programs, had expanded over time as a result of regulatory, market and other developments. The Board considered that the Advisor is responsible for the management of the day-to-day operations of the Funds, including but not limited to, general supervision of and coordination of the services provided by the Subadvisor, and is also responsible for monitoring and reviewing the activities of the Subadvisor and third-party service providers. The Board also considered the significant risks assumed by the Advisor in connection with the services provided to the Funds including entrepreneurial risk in sponsoring new Funds, and ongoing risks, including investment, operational, enterprise, litigation, regulatory and compliance risks with respect to all Funds.

In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Advisor, the Trustees also took into account their knowledge of the Advisor’s management and the quality of the performance of the Advisor’s duties, through Board meetings, discussions and reports during the preceding year and through each Trustee’s experience as a Trustee of the Trust and of the other trusts in the John Hancock group of funds complex (the John Hancock Fund Complex).

   | JOHN HANCOCK MULTIMANAGER LIFETIME PORTFOLIOS 86

Table of Contents

In the course of their deliberations regarding the Advisory Agreement, the Board considered, among other things:

(a)the skills and competency with which the Advisor has in the past managed the Trust’s affairs and its subadvisory relationship, the Advisor’s oversight and monitoring of the Subadvisor’s investment performance and compliance programs, such as the Subadvisor’s compliance with Fund policies and objectives, review of brokerage matters, including with respect to trade allocation and best execution and the Advisor’s timeliness in responding to performance issues;

(b)the background, qualifications and skills of the Advisor’s personnel;

(c)the Advisor’s compliance policies and procedures and its responsiveness to regulatory changes and fund industry developments;

(d)the Advisor’s administrative capabilities, including its ability to supervise the other service providers for the Funds, as well as the Advisor’s oversight of any securities lending activity, its monitoring of class action litigation and collection of class action settlements on behalf of the Funds, and bringing loss recovery actions on behalf of the Funds;

(e)the financial condition of the Advisor and whether it has the financial wherewithal to provide a high level and quality of services to the Funds; and

(f)the Advisor’s reputation and experience in serving as an investment adviser to the Trust and the benefit to shareholders of investing in funds that are part of a family of funds offering a variety of investments.

The Board concluded that the Advisor may reasonably be expected to continue to provide a high quality of services under the Advisory Agreement with respect to the Funds.

Investment performance. In considering each Fund’s performance, the Board noted that it reviews at its regularly scheduled meetings information about the Funds’ performance results. In connection with the consideration of the Advisory Agreement, the Board:

(a)reviewed information prepared by management regarding the Funds’ performance;

(b)considered the comparative performance of each Fund’s respective benchmark index;

(c)considered the performance of comparable funds, if any, as included in the report prepared by an independent third-party provider of fund data; and

(d)took into account the Advisor’s analysis of each Fund’s performance and its plans and recommendations regarding the Trust’s subadvisory arrangements generally and with respect to particular Funds.

The Board noted that while it found the data provided by the independent third-party generally useful it recognized its limitations, including in particular that the data may vary depending on the end date selected and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on the selection and size of the peer group. The Board reviewed Fund performance against each Fund’s respective peer group median and benchmark index and concluded that the performance of the Funds has generally been in line with or generally outperformed the historical performance of comparable funds over the longer term, with certain exceptions noted in Appendix A. In such cases, the Board concluded that the Fund’s performance is being monitored and reasonably addressed, where appropriate.

Fees and expenses. The Board reviewed comparative information prepared by an independent third-party provider of fund data including, among other data, each Fund’s contractual and net management fees (and subadvisory fees, to the extent available) and total expenses as compared to similarly situated investment companies deemed to be comparable to the Fund in light of the nature, extent and quality of the management and advisory and subadvisory services provided by the Advisor and the Subadvisor, respectively. The Board considered each Fund’s ranking within a smaller group of peer funds chosen by the independent third-party provider, as well as the Fund’s ranking within broader groups of funds. In comparing each Fund’s contractual and net management fees to that of comparable funds, the Board noted that such fees include both advisory and administrative costs.

The Board took into account management’s discussion with respect to the overall management fee and the fees of the Subadvisor, including the amount of the advisory fee retained by the Advisor after payment of the subadvisory fee, in each case in light of the services rendered for those amounts and the risks undertaken by the Advisor. The Board also noted that the Advisor pays the subadvisory fees of the Funds.  In addition, the Board took into account that management had agreed to implement an overall fee waiver across the complex, which is discussed further below. The Board also noted management’s discussion of the Funds’ expenses, as well as any actions taken over the past several years to reduce the Funds’ operating expenses. The Board also noted that, in addition, the Advisor is currently waiving fees and/or reimbursing expenses with respect to each Fund and that each Fund has breakpoints in its contractual management fee schedule that reduces management fees as assets increase. The Board reviewed information provided by the Advisor concerning investment advisory fees charged by the Advisor or one of its advisory affiliates to other clients (including other funds in the complex) having similar investment mandates, if any. The Board considered any differences between the Advisor’s and a Subadvisor’s services to a Fund and the services they provide to other comparable clients or funds. The Board concluded that the advisory fee paid with respect to each of the Funds is reasonable in light of the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided to the Funds under the Advisory Agreement.

In addition, the Trustees reviewed the advisory fee to be paid to the Advisor for each Fund and noted that the Advisor has evaluated the complexity of the structure and fees and expenses associated with each Fund’s investments in the underlying portfolios and the Advisor made a finding that each Fund’s expenses do not duplicate the fees and expenses of the underlying portfolios.

Profitability/Fall out benefits. In considering the costs of the services to be provided and the profits to be realized by the Advisor and its affiliates (including the Subadvisor) from the Advisor’s relationship with the Trust, the Board:

(a)reviewed financial information of the Advisor;

(b)reviewed and considered information presented by the Advisor regarding the net profitability to the Advisor and its affiliates, of each Fund;

87 JOHN HANCOCK MULTIMANAGER LIFETIME PORTFOLIOS  |   

Table of Contents

(c)received and reviewed profitability information with respect to the John Hancock Fund Complex as a whole and with respect to each Fund;

(d)received information with respect to the Advisor’s allocation methodologies used in preparing the profitability data and considered that the Advisor hired an independent third-party consultant to provide an analysis of the Advisor’s allocation methodologies;

(e)considered that the John Hancock insurance companies that are affiliates of the Advisor, as shareholders of the Trust directly or through their separate accounts, receive certain tax credits or deductions relating to foreign taxes paid and dividends received by certain Funds of the Trust and noted that these tax benefits, which are not available to participants in qualified retirement plans under applicable income tax law, are reflected in the profitability analysis reviewed by the Board;

(f)considered that the Advisor also provides administrative services to the Funds on a cost basis pursuant to an administrative services agreement;

(g)noted that affiliates of the Advisor provide transfer agency services and distribution services to the Funds, and that the Trust’s distributor also receives Rule 12b-1 payments to support distribution of the Funds;

(h)noted that the Funds’ Subadvisor is an affiliate of the Advisor;

(i)noted that the Advisor also derives reputational and other indirect benefits from providing advisory services to the Funds;

(j)noted that the subadvisory fees for the Funds are paid by the Advisor;

(k)with respect to each Fund, the Board noted that the advisory fee is in addition to the fees received by the Advisor and its affiliates with regard to the underlying funds in which the Funds may invest;

(l)considered the Advisor’s ongoing costs and expenditures necessary to improve services, meet new regulatory and compliance requirements, and adapt to other challenges impacting the fund industry; and

(m)considered that the Advisor should be entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits in exchange for the level of services it provides to each Fund and the risks that it assumes as Advisor, including entrepreneurial, operational, reputational, litigation and regulatory risk.

Based upon its review, the Board concluded that the level of profitability, if any, of the Advisor and its affiliates (including the Subadvisor), from their relationship with each Fund was not unreasonable in view of all factors considered.

Economies of scale. In considering the extent to which a Fund may realize any economies of scale as a Fund grows and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of Fund shareholders, the Board:

(a)considered that with respect to the John Hancock underlying funds in which the Funds invest, the Advisor has agreed to waive a portion of its management fee for such funds and for each of the other John Hancock funds in the complex (except as discussed below) (the Participating Portfolios) or otherwise reimburse the expenses of the Participating Portfolios (the Reimbursement). This waiver is based upon the aggregate net assets of all the Participating Portfolios. The funds that are not Participating Portfolios as of the date of this annual report are each of the Funds, each of the other funds of funds of the Trust and of John Hancock Variable Insurance Trust, John Hancock Collateral Trust, and John Hancock Managed Account Shares. The Funds also benefit from such overall management fee waiver through their investment in underlying funds that include certain of the Participating Portfolios, which are subject to the Reimbursement;

(b)reviewed the Trust’s advisory fee structure and concluded that (i) the Funds’ fee structures contain breakpoints at the advisory fee level and (ii) although economies of scale cannot be measured with precision, these arrangements permit shareholders of the Funds to benefit from economies of scale if those Funds grow. The Board also took into account management’s discussion of the Funds’ advisory fee structure; and

(c)considered the effect of the Funds’ growth in size on their performance and fees. The Board also noted that if the Funds’ assets increase over time, the Funds may realize other economies of scale.

Approval of Subadvisory Agreement

In making its determination with respect to approval of the Subadvisory Agreement, the Board reviewed:

(1)information relating to the Subadvisor’s business, including current subadvisory services to the Trust (and other funds in the John Hancock Fund Complex);

(2)the historical and current performance of each Fund and comparative performance information relating to the Fund’s benchmark index and comparable funds; and

(3)the subadvisory fee for each Fund, and comparative fee information, where available, prepared by an independent third party provider of fund data.

Nature, extent, and quality of services. With respect to the services provided by the Subadvisor with respect to each Fund, the Board received information provided to the Board by the Subadvisor, including the Subadvisor’s Form ADV, as well as took into account information presented throughout the past year. The Board considered the Subadvisor’s current level of staffing and its overall resources, as well as received information relating to the Subadvisor’s compensation program. The Board reviewed the Subadvisor’s history and investment experience, as well as information regarding the qualifications, background and responsibilities of the Subadvisor’s investment and compliance personnel who provide services to the Funds. The Board also considered, among other things, the Subadvisor’s compliance program and any disciplinary history. The Board also considered the Subadvisor’s risk assessment and monitoring process. The Board reviewed the Subadvisor’s regulatory history, including whether it was involved in any regulatory actions or investigations as well as material litigation, and any settlements and amelioratory actions undertaken, as appropriate. The Board noted that the Advisor conducts regular, periodic reviews of the Subadvisor and its operations, including regarding investment processes and

   | JOHN HANCOCK MULTIMANAGER LIFETIME PORTFOLIOS 88

Table of Contents

organizational and staffing matters. The Board also noted that the CCO and his staff conduct regular, periodic compliance reviews with the Subadvisor and present reports to the Independent Trustees regarding the same, which includes evaluating the regulatory compliance systems of the Subadvisor and procedures reasonably designed to assure compliance with the federal securities laws. The Board also took into account the financial condition of the Subadvisor.

The Board considered the Subadvisor’s investment process and philosophy. The Board took into account that the Subadvisor’s responsibilities include the development and maintenance of an investment program for the applicable Fund that is consistent with the Fund’s investment objective, the selection of investment securities and the placement of orders for the purchase and sale of such securities, as well as the implementation of compliance controls related to performance of these services. The Board also received information with respect to the Subadvisor’s brokerage policies and practices, including with respect to best execution and soft dollars.

Subadvisor compensation. In considering the cost of services to be provided by the Subadvisor, the Board noted that the fees under the Subadvisory Agreement are paid by the Advisor and not the Funds. The Board also received information and took into account any other potential conflicts of interest the Advisor might have in connection with the Subadvisory Agreement.

In addition, the Board considered other potential indirect benefits that the Subadvisor and its affiliates may receive from the Subadvisor’s relationship with the Funds, such as the opportunity to provide advisory services to additional funds in the John Hancock Fund Complex and reputational benefits.

Subadvisory fees. The Board considered that each Fund pays an advisory fee to the Advisor and that, in turn, the Advisor pays a subadvisory fee to the Subadvisor. As noted above, the Board also considered, if available, each Fund’s subadvisory fees as compared to similarly situated investment companies deemed to be comparable to the Fund as included in the report prepared by the independent third party provider of fund data, to the extent applicable. The Board also took into account the subadvisory fees paid by the Advisor to the Subadvisor with respect to the Funds to fees charged by the Subadvisor to manage other subadvised portfolios and portfolios not subject to regulation under the 1940 Act, as applicable.

Subadvisor performance. As noted above, the Board considered each Fund’s performance as compared to the Fund’s respective peer group median and the benchmark index and noted that the Board reviews information about the Funds’ performance results at its regularly scheduled meetings. The Board noted the Advisor’s expertise and resources in monitoring the performance, investment style, and risk-adjusted performance of the Subadvisor. The Board was mindful of the Advisor’s focus on the Subadvisor’s performance. The Board also noted the Subadvisor’s long-term performance record for similar accounts, as applicable.

The Board’s decision to approve the Subadvisory Agreement with respect to each Fund was based on a number of determinations, including the following:

(1)the Subadvisor has extensive experience and demonstrated skills as a manager;

(2)the performance of each of the Funds has generally been in line with or generally outperformed the historical performance of comparable funds based on the median percentile over the long term with certain exceptions, as noted in Appendix A (with respect to such exceptions, the Board concluded that the Fund’s performance is being monitored and reasonably addressed where appropriate);

(3)the subadvisory fees are reasonable in relation to the level and quality of services being provided under the Subadvisory Agreement; and

(4)noted that the subadvisory fees are paid by the Advisor and not the Funds and the advisory fee for each of the funds contains breakpoints that permit shareholders to benefit from economies of scale.

In addition, the Trustees reviewed the subadvisory fee to be paid to the Subadvisor for each Fund and noted that the Advisor has evaluated the complexity of the structure and fees and expenses associated with each Fund’s investments in the underlying portfolios and that the Advisor made a finding that each Fund’s expenses do not duplicate the fees and expenses of the underlying portfolios.

Additional information relating to each Fund’s fees and expenses and performance that the Board considered in approving the Advisory Agreement and Subadvisory Agreement for a particular Fund is set forth in Appendix A.

***

Based on the Board’s evaluation of all factors that the Board deemed to be material, including those factors described above, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, concluded that renewal of the Advisory Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreement with respect to each Fund would be in the best interest of each of the respective Funds and its shareholders. Accordingly, the Board, and the Independent Trustees voting separately, approved the Advisory Agreement and Subadvisory Agreement with respect to each Fund for an additional one-year period.

Notes to financial statements

Note 1—Organization

John Hancock Funds II (the Trust) is an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act). It is a series company with multiple investment series, five of which are presented in this report (collectively, Multimanager Lifestyle Portfolios, or the portfolios and individually, the portfolio).  The portfolios operate as “funds of funds” that may invest in affiliated underlying funds of the Trust, other funds in the John Hancock group of funds complex, non-John Hancock funds and certain other permitted investments.

The portfolios may offer multiple classes of shares. The shares currently offered by the portfolios are detailed in the Statements of assets and liabilities. Class A and Class C shares are open to all investors. Class I shares are offered to institutions and certain investors. Class R2, Class R4 and Class R5 shares are available only to certain retirement and 529 plans. Class R6 shares are only available to certain retirement plans, institutions and other investors. Class 1 shares are offered only to certain affiliates of Manulife Financial Corporation (MFC). Class 5 shares are available only to the John Hancock Freedom 529 plans. Class C shares convert to Class A shares eight years after purchase (certain exclusions may apply). Shareholders of each class have exclusive voting rights to matters that affect that class. The distribution and service fees, if any, and transfer agent fees for each class may differ.

The investment objectives of portfolios are as follows:

Multimanager Lifestyle Aggressive Portfolio

To seek long-term growth of capital. Current income is not a consideration.

Multimanager Lifestyle Growth Portfolio

To seek long-term growth of capital. Current income is also a consideration.

Multimanager Lifestyle Balanced Portfolio

To seek a balance between a high level of current income and growth of capital, with a greater emphasis on growth of capital.

Multimanager Lifestyle Moderate Portfolio

To seek a balance between a high level of current income and growth of capital, with a greater emphasis on income.

Multimanager Lifestyle Conservative Portfolio

To seek a high level of current income with some consideration given to growth of capital.

The accounting policies of the underlying funds in which the portfolios invest are outlined in the underlying funds’ shareholder reports, which include the underlying funds’ financial statements.  These are available on the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) website at sec.gov.  John Hancock underlying funds’ shareholder reports are also available without charge by calling 800-225-5291 or visiting jhinvestments.com. The underlying funds are not covered by this report.

Note 2—Significant accounting policies

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions as of the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those differences could be significant. The portfolios qualify as investment companies under Topic 946 of Accounting Standards Codification of US GAAP.

Events or transactions occurring after the end of the fiscal period through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the portfolios:

Security valuation. Investments are stated at value as of the scheduled close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally at 4:00 P.M., Eastern Time. In case of emergency or other disruption resulting in the NYSE not opening for trading or the NYSE closing at a time other than the regularly scheduled close, the net asset value (NAV) may be determined as of the regularly scheduled close of the NYSE pursuant to the Valuation Policies and Procedures of the Advisor, John Hancock Investment Management LLC, the portfolios’ valuation designee.

In order to value the securities, the portfolios use the following valuation techniques: Investments in affiliated underlying funds and/or other open-end management investment companies, other than exchange-traded funds (ETFs), are valued at their respective NAVs each business day. Equity securities, including exchange-traded or closed-end funds, are typically valued at the last sale price or official closing price on the exchange or principal market where the security trades. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, the securities are valued using the last available bid price. Debt obligations are typically valued based on evaluated prices provided by an independent pricing vendor. Independent pricing vendors utilize matrix pricing, which takes into account factors such as institutional-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other market data, as well as broker supplied prices.

In certain instances, the Pricing Committee of the Advisor may determine to value equity securities using prices obtained from another exchange or market if trading on the exchange or market on which prices are typically obtained did not open for trading as scheduled, or if trading closed earlier than scheduled, and trading occurred as normal on another exchange or market.

Other portfolio securities and assets, for which reliable market quotations are not readily available, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Pricing Committee following procedures established by the Advisor and adopted by the Board of Trustees. The frequency with which these fair valuation procedures are used cannot be predicted and fair value of securities may differ significantly from the value that would have been used had a ready market for such securities existed.

Trading in foreign securities may be completed before the scheduled daily close of trading on the NYSE. Significant events at the issuer or market level may affect the values of securities between the time when the valuation of the securities is generally determined and the close of the NYSE. If a significant event occurs, these securities may be fair valued, as determined in good faith by the Pricing Committee, following procedures established by the Advisor and adopted by the Board of Trustees. The Advisor uses fair value adjustment factors provided by an independent pricing vendor to value certain foreign securities in order to adjust for events that may occur between the close of foreign exchanges or markets and the close of the NYSE.

The portfolios use a three tier hierarchy to prioritize the pricing assumptions, referred to as inputs, used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. Level 1 includes securities valued using quoted prices in active markets for identical securities, including registered investment companies. Level 2 includes securities valued using other significant observable inputs. Observable inputs may include quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds and credit risk. Prices for securities valued using these inputs are received from independent pricing vendors and brokers and are based on an evaluation of the inputs described. Level 3 includes securities valued using significant unobservable inputs when market prices are not readily available or reliable, including the Advisor’s assumptions in determining the fair value of investments. Factors used in determining value may include market or issuer specific events or trends, changes in interest rates and credit quality. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. Changes in valuation techniques and related inputs may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy.

Level 3 includes  securities valued at $0. Refer to Portfolios’ investments.

Inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are securities that generally have a lower coupon interest rate fixed at issuance but whose principal value is periodically adjusted based on a rate of inflation, such as the Consumer Price Index. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, interest is paid on the inflation adjusted principal value as described above. Increases in the principal amount of these securities are recorded as interest income. Decreases in the principal amount of these securities may reduce interest income to the extent of income previously recorded. If these decreases are in excess of income previously recorded, an adjustment to the cost of the security is made.

Stripped securities. Stripped securities are financial instruments structured to separate principal and interest cash flows so that one class receives principal payments from the underlying assets (PO or principal only), while the other class receives the interest cash flows (IO or interest only). Both PO and IO investments represent an interest in the cash flows of an underlying stripped security. If the underlying assets experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, the portfolios may fail to fully recover its initial investment in an IO security. The market value of these securities can be extremely volatile in response to changes in interest rates or prepayments on the underlying securities. In addition, these securities present additional credit risk such that the portfolios may not receive all or part of its principal or interest payments because the borrower or issuer has defaulted on its obligation.

Security transactions and related investment income. Investment security transactions are accounted for on a trade date plus one basis for daily NAV calculations. However, for financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are reported on trade date. Interest income is accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization/accretion of premiums/discounts on debt securities. Debt obligations may be placed in a non-accrual status and related interest income may be reduced by stopping current accruals and writing off interest receivable when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful. Capital gain distributions from underlying funds are recorded on ex-date and reflected as realized gains. Dividend income is recorded on ex-date, except for dividends of certain foreign securities where the dividend may not be known until after the ex-date. In those cases, dividend income, net of withholding taxes, is recorded when the portfolio becomes aware of the dividends. Non-cash dividends, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and may include proceeds from litigation. Return of capital distributions from underlying funds, if any, are treated as a reduction of cost.  

Foreign investing. Assets, including investments, and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar values each day at the prevailing exchange rate. Purchases and sales of securities, income and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the date of the transaction. The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on the value of securities is reflected as a component of the realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments. Foreign investments are subject to a decline in the value of a foreign currency versus the U.S. dollar, which reduces the dollar value of securities denominated in that currency.

Portfolios that invest internationally generally carry more risk than portfolios that invest strictly in U.S. securities. These risks are heightened for investments in emerging markets. Risks can result from differences in economic and political conditions, regulations, market practices (including higher transaction costs), accounting standards and other factors.

Overdraft. The portfolios may have the ability to borrow from banks for temporary or emergency purposes, including meeting redemption requests that otherwise might require the untimely sale of securities. Pursuant to the portfolios’ custodian agreement, the custodian may loan money to the portfolios to make properly authorized payments. The portfolios are obligated to repay the custodian for any overdraft, including any related costs or expenses. The custodian may have a lien, security interest or security entitlement in any portfolio property that is not otherwise segregated or pledged, to the extent of any overdraft, and to the maximum extent permitted by law. Overdrafts at period end, if any, are presented under the caption Due to custodian in the Statements of assets and liabilities.

Line of credit. The portfolios and other affiliated funds have entered into a syndicated line of credit agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon as the administrative agent that enables them to participate in a $1 billion unsecured committed line of credit, which is in effect through July 12, 2027 unless extended or renewed. Excluding commitments designated for certain funds and subject to the needs of all other affiliated funds, a portfolio can borrow up to an aggregate commitment amount of $750 million, subject to asset coverage and other limitations as specified in the agreement. Prior to July 13, 2026, a similar syndicated line of credit agreement was held with Citibank N.A. A commitment fee payable at the end of each calendar quarter, based on the average daily unused portion of each line of credit, is charged to each participating portfolio based on an asset-based allocation and is reflected in Other expenses on the Statements of operations. For the year ended August 31, 2026, the portfolios had no borrowings under the line of credit.

Commitment fees for the year ended August 31, 2026 were as follows:

Portfolio Commitment fee
Multimanager Lifestyle Aggressive Portfolio   $17,007
Multimanager Lifestyle Growth Portfolio   43,823
Multimanager Lifestyle Balanced Portfolio   37,485
Multimanager Lifestyle Moderate Portfolio   10,400
Multimanager Lifestyle Conservative Portfolio   7,831

Expenses. Within the John Hancock group of funds complex, expenses that are directly attributable to an individual portfolio are allocated to such portfolio. Expenses that are not readily attributable to a specific portfolio are allocated among all portfolios in an equitable manner, taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and each portfolio’s relative net assets. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.

Class allocations. Income, common expenses and realized and unrealized gains (losses) are determined at the portfolio level and allocated daily to each class of shares based on the net assets of the class. Class-specific expenses, such as distribution and service fees, if any, and transfer agent fees, for all classes, are charged daily at the class level based on the net assets of each class and the specific expense rates applicable to each class.

Federal income taxes. Each portfolio intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and will not be subject to federal income tax on taxable income that is distributed to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

For federal income tax purposes, as of August 31, 2026, certain portfolios have capital loss carryforwards available to offset future net realized capital gains. The following table details the capital loss carryforwards available as of August 31, 2026:

Multimanager Lifestyle Conservative Portfolio   66,218,432 —   66,218,432

Distributions paid by the portfolios with respect to each class of shares are calculated in the same manner, at the same time and in the same amount, except for the effect of class level expenses that may be applied differently to each class. As of August 31, 2026, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Portfolio Undistributed

Multimanager Lifestyle Aggressive Portfolio   $21,168,908   $250,102,296

Multimanager Lifestyle Moderate Portfolio   20,383,147   61,493,875
Multimanager Lifestyle Conservative Portfolio   10,139,809 —

Such distributions and distributable earnings, on a tax basis, if any, are determined in conformity with income tax regulations, which may differ from US GAAP. Distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits, if any, are reported in the portfolios’ financial statements as a return of capital. Short-term gains from underlying funds are treated as ordinary income for tax purposes.

Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences at fiscal year end. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences, if any, will reverse in a subsequent period. Book-tax differences are primarily attributable to wash sale loss deferrals.

Note 3—Guarantees and indemnifications

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its Officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust, including the portfolios. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

Note 4—Fees and transactions with affiliates

John Hancock Investment Management LLC (the Advisor) serves as investment advisor for the portfolios. John Hancock Investment Management Distributors LLC (the Distributor), an affiliate of the Advisor, serves as principal underwriter of the portfolios. The Advisor and the Distributor are indirect, principally owned subsidiaries of John Hancock Life Insurance Company (U.S.A.), which in turn is a subsidiary of Manulife Financial Corporation.

Management fee. The portfolios have an investment management agreement with the Advisor under which the portfolios pay a daily management fee to the Advisor as detailed below. The Advisor has a subadvisory agreement with Manulife Investment Management (US) LLC, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of MFC and an affiliate of the Advisor. The portfolios are not responsible for payment of the subadvisory fees.

The management fee has two components: (1) a fee on assets invested in a fund of the Trust or John Hancock Funds III (JHF III) (Assets in a fund of the Trust or JHF III); and (2) a fee on assets invested in investments other than a fund of the Trust or JHF III (Other assets). Aggregate net assets include the net assets of the portfolios, similar portfolios of John Hancock Variable Insurance Trust (JHVIT), and similar portfolios of the Trust. JHVIT funds are advised by an affiliate of the Advisor, John Hancock Variable Trust Advisers LLC and are distributed by an affiliate of the Advisor, John Hancock Distributors, LLC.

Management fees are determined in accordance with the following schedule:

  First $7.5 billion of aggregate net assets Excess over $7.5 billion of aggregate net assets
Assets in a fund of the Trust or JHF III 0.050% 0.040%
Other assets 0.500% 0.490%
31 JOHN HANCOCK MULTIMANAGER LIFESTYLE PORTFOLIOS |   

Table of Contents

The Advisor voluntarily agreed to waive its advisory fee for each portfolio so that the aggregate advisory fee retained by the Advisor with respect to both the portfolio and its underlying investments (after payment of subadvisory fees) does not exceed 0.50% of the portfolio’s first $7.5 billion of average net assets and 0.49% of the portfolio’s average net assets in excess of $7.5 billion. This voluntary waiver may be amended or terminated at any time by the Advisor upon notice to the portfolio.

For the year ended August 31, 2026, the expense reductions under these agreements amounted to the following and are reflected as a reduction of total expenses in the Statements of operations:

Expenses waived or reimbursed in the current fiscal period are not subject to recapture in future fiscal periods.

The investment management fees, including the impact of the waivers and reimbursements as described above, incurred for the year ended August 31, 2026, were equivalent to a net annual effective rate of the portfolios’ average daily net assets as follows:

These expenses are allocated to each share class based on its relative net assets at the time the expense was incurred. These accounting and legal services fees incurred, for the year ended August 31, 2026, amounted to an annual rate of 0.02% of the portfolios’ average daily net assets.

Distribution and service plans. The portfolios have a distribution agreement with the Distributor.

Transfer agent fees. The John Hancock group of funds has a complex-wide transfer agent agreement with John Hancock Signature Services, Inc. (Signature Services), an affiliate of the Advisor.

It also includes out-of-pocket expenses, including payments made to third-parties for recordkeeping services provided to their clients who invest in one or more John Hancock funds. In addition, Signature Services Cost may be reduced by certain fees that Signature Services receives in connection with retirement and small accounts. Signature Services Cost is calculated monthly and allocated, as applicable, to three categories of share classes: Retail Share Classes of Non-Municipal Bond Funds, Retirement Share Classes and Retail Share Classes of Municipal Bond Funds. Within each of these categories, the applicable costs are allocated to the affected John Hancock affiliated funds and/or classes, based on the relative average daily net assets.

Note 8—Segment reporting

The management committee of the Advisor acts as the portfolios’ chief operating decision maker (the CODM), assessing performance and making decisions about resource allocation. Each portfolio represents a single operating segment, as the CODM monitors and assesses the operating results of the portfolio as a whole, and the portfolio’s long-term strategic asset allocation is managed in accordance with the terms of its prospectus, based on a defined investment strategy which is executed by the portfolio management team of the portfolio’s subadvisor. Segment assets are reflected in the Statements of assets and liabilities as “Total assets”, which consists primarily of total investments at value. The financial information, including the measurement of profit and loss and significant expenses, provided to and reviewed by the CODM is consistent with that presented within the Statements of operations, which includes “Increase (decrease) in net assets from operations”, Statements of changes in net assets, which includes “Increase (decrease) in net assets from portfolio share transactions”, and Financial highlights, which includes total return and income and expense ratios.

We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Portfolios in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

EVALUATION OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUBADVISORY AGREEMENTS BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES


This section describes the evaluation by the Board of Trustees (the Board) of John Hancock Funds II (the Trust) of the Advisory Agreement (the Advisory Agreement) and the Subadvisory Agreement (the Subadvisory Agreement) with respect to each of the portfolios of the Trust included in this report (the Funds). The Advisory Agreement and Subadvisory Agreement are collectively referred to as the Agreements. Prior to the June 22-25, 2026 meeting at which the Agreements were approved, the Board also discussed and considered information regarding the proposed continuation of the Agreements at a meeting held on May 26-28, 2026, The Trustees who are not "interested persons" of the Trust as defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act) (the Independent Trustees) also met separately to evaluate and discuss the information presented, including with counsel to the Independent Trustees and a third-party consulting firm.

Approval of Advisory and Subadvisory Agreements

At meetings held on June 22-25, 2026, the Board, including the Trustees who are not parties to any Agreement or considered to be interested persons of the Trust under the 1940 Act, reapproved for an annual period, the continuation of the Advisory Agreement between the Trust and John Hancock Investment Management, LLC (the Advisor) and the Subadvisory Agreement between the Advisor and Manulife Investment Management (US) (the Subadvisor) with respect to each of the Funds identified in Appendix A.

In considering the Advisory Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreement with respect to each Fund, the Board received in advance of the meetings a variety of materials relating to each Fund, the Advisor and the Subadvisor, including comparative performance, fee and expense information for peer groups of similar funds prepared by an independent third-party provider of fund data; performance information for the Funds’ benchmark indices; and, with respect to the Subadvisor, comparative performance information for comparably managed accounts, as applicable; and other information provided by the Advisor and the Subadvisor regarding the nature, extent, and quality of services provided by the Advisor and the Subadvisor under their respective Agreements, as well as information regarding the Advisor’s revenues and costs of providing services to the Funds and any compensation paid to affiliates of the Advisor. At the meetings at which the renewal of the Advisory Agreement and Subadvisory Agreement are considered, particular focus is given to information concerning Fund performance, comparability of fees and total expenses, and profitability. However, the Board noted that the evaluation process with respect to the Advisor and the Subadvisor is an ongoing one. In this regard, the Board also took into account discussions with management and information provided to the Board (including its various committees) at prior meetings with respect to the services provided by the Advisor and the Subadvisor to the Funds, including quarterly performance reports prepared by management containing reviews of investment results, and periodic presentations from the Subadvisor with respect to the Funds. The information received and considered by the Board both in conjunction with the May and June meetings and throughout the year was both written and oral. The Board noted the affiliation of the Subadvisor with the Advisor, noting any potential conflicts of interest. The Board also considered the nature, quality, and extent of the non-advisory services, if any, to be provided to the Funds by the Advisor’s affiliates, including distribution services. The Board considered the Advisory Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreement separately in the course of its review. In doing so, the Board noted the respective roles of the Advisor and the Subadvisor in providing services to the Funds. In addition, although the Board approved the renewal of the Agreements for all of the Funds at the June meeting, the Board considered each Fund separately.

Throughout the process, the Board asked questions of and requested additional information from management. The Board is assisted by counsel for the Trust and the Independent Trustees are also separately assisted by independent legal counsel throughout the process. The Independent Trustees also received a memorandum from their independent legal counsel discussing the legal standards for their consideration of the proposed continuation of the Agreements and discussed the proposed continuation of the Agreements in private sessions with their independent legal counsel at which no representatives of management were present.

Approval of Advisory Agreement

In approving the Advisory Agreement with respect to each Fund, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, considered a variety of factors, including those discussed below. The Board also considered other factors (including conditions and trends prevailing generally in the economy, the securities markets, and the industry) and did not treat any single factor as determinative, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to different factors. The Board’s conclusions may be based in part on its consideration of the advisory and subadvisory arrangements in prior years and on the Board’s ongoing regular review of Fund performance and operations throughout the year.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. Among the information received by the Board from the Advisor relating to the nature, extent, and quality of services provided to the Funds, the Board reviewed information provided by the Advisor relating to its operations and personnel, descriptions of its organizational and management structure, and information regarding the Advisor’s compliance and regulatory history, including its Form ADV. The Board also noted that on a regular basis it receives and reviews information from the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) regarding the Funds’ compliance policies and procedures established pursuant to Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act. The Board observed that the scope of services provided by the Advisor, and of the undertakings required of the Advisor in connection with those services, including maintaining and monitoring its own and the Funds’ compliance programs, risk management programs, liquidity risk management programs, derivatives risk management programs, and cybersecurity programs, had expanded over time as a result of regulatory, market and other developments. The Board considered that the Advisor is responsible for the management of the day-to-day operations of the Funds, including but not limited to, general supervision of and coordination of the services provided by the Subadvisor, and is also responsible for monitoring and reviewing the activities of the Subadvisor and third-party service providers. The Board also considered the significant risks assumed by the Advisor in connection with the services provided to the Funds, including entrepreneurial risk in sponsoring new Funds, and ongoing risks including investment, operational, enterprise, litigation, regulatory and compliance risks with respect to all Funds.

In considering the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by the Advisor, the Trustees also took into account their knowledge of the Advisor’s management and the quality of the performance of the Advisor’s duties, through Board meetings, discussions and reports during the preceding year and through each Trustee’s experience as a Trustee of the Trust and of the other trusts in the John Hancock group of funds complex (the John Hancock Fund Complex).

Table of Contents

In the course of their deliberations regarding the Advisory Agreement, the Board considered, among other things:

(a)the skills and competency with which the Advisor has in the past managed the Trust’s affairs and its subadvisory relationship, the Advisor’s oversight and monitoring of the Subadvisor’s investment performance and compliance programs, such as the Subadvisor’s compliance with Fund policies and objectives, review of brokerage matters, including with respect to trade allocation and best execution and the Advisor’s timeliness in responding to performance issues;

(b)the background, qualifications and skills of the Advisor’s personnel;

(c)the Advisor’s compliance policies and procedures and its responsiveness to regulatory changes and fund industry developments;

(d)the Advisor’s administrative capabilities, including its ability to supervise the other service providers for the Funds, as well as the Advisor’s oversight of any securities lending activity, its monitoring of class action litigation and collection of class action settlements on behalf of the Funds, and bringing loss recovery actions on behalf of the Funds;

(e)the financial condition of the Advisor and whether it has the financial wherewithal to provide a high level and quality of services to the Funds; and

(f)the Advisor’s reputation and experience in serving as an investment advisor to the Trust and the benefit to shareholders of investing in funds that are part of a family of funds offering a variety of investments.

The Board concluded that the Advisor may reasonably be expected to continue to provide a high quality of services under the Advisory Agreement with respect to the Funds.

Investment Performance. In considering each Fund’s performance, the Board noted that it reviews at its regularly scheduled meetings information about the Funds’ performance results. In connection with the consideration of the Advisory Agreement, the Board:

(a)reviewed information prepared by management regarding the Funds’ performance;

(b)considered the comparative performance of each Fund’s respective benchmark index;

(c)considered the performance of comparable funds, if any, as included in the report prepared by an independent third-party provider of fund data; and

(d)took into account the Advisor’s analysis of each Fund’s performance and its plans and recommendations regarding the Trust’s subadvisory arrangements generally and with respect to particular Funds.

The Board noted that while it found the data provided by the independent third-party generally useful it recognized its limitations, including in particular that the data may vary depending on the end date selected and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on the selection and size of the peer group. The Board reviewed Fund performance against each Fund’s respective peer group median and benchmark index and concluded that the performance of the Funds has generally been in line with or generally outperformed the historical performance of comparable funds based on the median percentile over the longer-term with certain exceptions noted in Appendix A.  In such cases, the Board considered the steps the Advisor has taken or plans to take to address performance and concluded that such performance is being monitored or reasonably addressed.

Fees and Expenses. The Board reviewed comparative information prepared by an independent third-party provider of fund data including, among other data, each Fund’s contractual and net management fees (and subadvisory fees, to the extent available) and total expenses as compared to similarly situated investment companies deemed to be comparable to the Fund in light of the nature, extent and quality of the management and advisory and subadvisory services provided by the Advisor and the Subadvisor, respectively. The Board considered each Fund’s ranking within a smaller group of peer funds chosen by the independent third-party provider, as well as the Fund’s ranking within broader groups of funds. In comparing each Fund’s contractual and net management fees to that of comparable funds, the Board noted that such fee includes both advisory and administrative costs.

The Board took into account management’s discussion with respect to the overall management fee and the fees of the Subadvisor, including the amount of the advisory fee retained by the Advisor after payment of the subadvisory fee, in each case in light of the services rendered for those amounts and the risks undertaken by the Advisor. The Board also noted that, in addition, the Advisor is currently waiving fees and/or reimbursing expenses with respect to the Funds and that each Fund has breakpoints in its contractual management fee schedule that reduces management fees and assets increase. The Board also noted that the Advisor pays the subadvisory fees of the Funds. In addition, the Board noted that the Advisor continued advisory and subadvisory fee reductions in the past year with respect to several Funds. The Board also took into account that management had agreed to implement an overall fee waiver across the complex, which is discussed further below. The Board also noted management’s discussion of the Funds’ expenses, as well as certain actions taken over the past several years to reduce the Funds’ operating expenses.The Board reviewed information provided by the Advisor concerning investment advisory fees charged by the Advisor or one of its advisory affiliates to other clients (including other funds in the complex) having similar investment mandates, if any. The Board considered any differences between the Advisor’s and Subadvisor’s services to a Fund and the services they provide to other such comparable clients or funds. The Board concluded that the advisory fee paid with respect to each of the Funds is reasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds under the Advisory Agreement.

In addition, the Trustees reviewed the advisory fee to be paid to the Advisor for each Fund and noted that the Advisor has evaluated the complexity of the structure and fees and expenses associated with the Funds’ investments in the underlying portfolios and that the Advisor made a finding that the Funds’ expenses do not duplicate the fees and expenses of the underlying portfolios.

Profitability/Fall Out Benefits. In considering the costs of the services to be provided and the profits to be realized by the Advisor and its affiliates (including the Subadvisor that is affiliated with the Advisor) from the Advisor’s relationship with the Trust, the Board:

(a)reviewed financial information of the Advisor;

   | JOHN HANCOCK MULTIMANAGER LIFESTYLE PORTFOLIOS 50

Table of Contents

(b)reviewed and considered information presented by the Advisor regarding the net profitability to the Advisor and its affiliates, of each Fund;

(c)received and reviewed profitability information with respect to the John Hancock Fund omplex as a whole and with respect to each Fund; 

(d)received information with respect to the Advisor’s allocation methodologies used in preparing the profitability data and considered that the Advisor hired an independent third-party consultant to provide an analysis of the Advisor’s allocation methodologies;

(e)considered that the John Hancock insurance companies that are affiliates of the Advisor, as shareholders of the Trust directly or through their separate accounts, receive certain tax credits or deductions relating to foreign taxes paid and dividends received by certain Funds of the Trust and noted that these tax benefits, which are not available to participants in qualified retirement plans under applicable income tax law, are reflected in the profitability analysis reviewed by the Board;

(f)considered that the Advisor also provides administrative services to the Funds on a cost basis pursuant to an administrative services agreement;

(g)noted that the Funds’ Subadvisor is an affiliate of the Advisor;

(h)noted that the Advisor also derives reputational and other indirect benefits from providing advisory services to the Funds;

(i)noted that the subadvisory fees for the Funds are paid by the Advisor;

(j)with respect to each Fund, the Board noted that the advisory fee is in addition to the fees received by the Advisor and its affiliates with regard to the underlying portfolios in which the Funds may invest;

(k)considered the Advisor’s ongoing costs and expenditures necessary to improve services, meet new regulatory and compliance requirements, and adapt to other challenges impacting the fund industry; and

(l)considered that the Advisor should be entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits in exchange for the level of services it provides to each Fund and the risks that it assumes as Advisor, including entrepreneurial, operational, reputational, litigation and regulatory risk.

Based upon its review, the Board concluded that the level of profitability, if any, of the Advisor and its affiliates (including the Subadvisor, which are affiliated with the Advisor), from their relationship with each Fund was not unreasonable in view of all factors considered.

Economies of Scale. In considering the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as a Fund grows and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of Fund shareholders, the Board:

(a)considered that with respect to the John Hancock underlying portfolios in which the Funds invest, the Advisor has agreed to waive a portion of its management fee for such funds and for each of the other John Hancock funds in the complex (except as discussed below) (the Participating Portfolios) or otherwise reimburse the expenses of the Participating Portfolios (the Reimbursement). This waiver is based on upon the aggregate net assets of all the Participating Portfolios. The Board also noted that the Advisor had implemented additional breakpoints to the complex-wide fee waiver in recent years. The Funds that are not Participating Portfolios as of the date of this annual report are each of the Funds, each of the other funds of funds of the Trust and of John Hancock Variable Insurance Trust, John Hancock Collateral Trust, and John Hancock Managed Account Shares. These funds of funds also benefit from such overall management fee waiver through their investment in underlying portfolios that include certain of the Participating Portfolios, which are subject to the Reimbursement;

(b)reviewed the Trust’s advisory fee structure and concluded that (i) the Funds’ fee structures contain breakpoints at the advisory fee level and (ii) although economies of scale cannot be measured with precision, these arrangements permit shareholders of the Funds to benefit from economies of scale if those Funds grow. The Board also took into account management’s discussion of the Funds’ advisory fee structure; and

(c)considered the effect of the Funds’ growth in size on their performance and fees. The Board also noted that if the Funds’ assets increase over time, the Funds may realize other economies of scale.

Approval of Subadvisory Agreements

In making its determination with respect to approval of the Subadvisory Agreement, the Board reviewed:

(1)information relating to the Subadvisor’s business, including current subadvisory services to the Trust (and other funds in the John Hancock Fund Complex);

(2)the historical and current performance of each Fund and comparative performance information relating to each Fund’s benchmark and comparable funds; and

(3)the subadvisory fee for each Fund and comparative fee information, where available, prepared by an independent third-party provider of fund data.

Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services. With respect to the services provided by the Subadvisor with respect to each Fund, the Board received information provided to the Board by the Subadvisor, including the Subadvisor’s Form ADV, as well as took into account information presented throughout the past year. The Board considered the Subadvisor’s current level of staffing and its overall resources, as well as received information relating to the Subadvisor’s compensation program. The Board reviewed the Subadvisor’s history and investment experience, as well as information regarding the qualifications, background and responsibilities of the Subadvisor’s investment and compliance personnel who provide services to the Funds. The Board also considered, among other things, the Subadvisor’s compliance program and any disciplinary history. The Board also considered the Subadvisor’s risk assessment and monitoring process. The Board reviewed the Subadvisor’s regulatory history, including whether it was involved in any regulatory actions or investigations as well as material litigation, and any settlements and amelioratory actions undertaken, as appropriate. The Board noted that the Advisor conducts regular, periodic reviews of the Subadvisor and its operations, including regarding investment processes and

51 JOHN HANCOCK MULTIMANAGER LIFESTYLE PORTFOLIOS |   

Table of Contents

organizational and staffing matters. The Board also noted that the CCO and his staff conduct regular, periodic compliance reviews with the Subadvisor and present reports to the Independent Trustees regarding the same, which includes evaluating the regulatory compliance systems of the Subadvisor and procedures reasonably designed to assure compliance with the federal securities laws. The Board also took into account the financial condition of the Subadvisor.

The Board considered the Subadvisor’s investment process and philosophy. The Board took into account that the Subadvisor’s responsibilities include the development and maintenance of an investment program for the Funds which is consistent with the Fund’s investment objectives, the selection of investment securities and underlying portfolios and the placement of orders for the purchase and sale of such securities and underlying portfolios, as well as the implementation of compliance controls related to performance of these services. The Board also received information with respect to the Subadvisor’s brokerage policies and practices, including with respect to best execution and soft dollars.

Subadvisor Compensation. In considering the cost of services to be provided by the Subadvisor, the Board noted that the fees under the Subadvisory Agreement are paid by the Advisor and not the Funds. The Board also received information and took into account any other potential conflicts of interest the Advisor might have in connection with the Subadvisory Agreement.

In addition, the Board considered other potential indirect benefits that the Subadvisor and its affiliates may receive from the Subadvisor’s relationship with the Funds, such as the opportunity to provide advisory services to additional funds in the John Hancock Fund Complex and reputational benefits.

Subadvisory Fees. The Board considered that the Funds pay an advisory fee to the Advisor and that, in turn, the Advisor pays a subadvisory fee to the Subadvisor. As noted above, the Board also considered, if available, each Fund’s sub-advisory fees as compared to similarly situated investment companies deemed to be comparable to the Fund as included in the report prepared by the independent third party provider of fund data, to the extent available. The Board also took into account the sub-advisory fees paid by the Advisor to the Subadvisor with respect to the Funds and compared them to fees charged by the Subadvisor to manage other sub-advised portfolios and portfolios not subject to regulation under the 1940 Act, as applicable.

Subadvisor Performance. As noted above, the Board considered each Fund’s performance as compared to the Fund’s respective peer group median and benchmark index and noted that the Board reviews information about the Fund’s performance results at its regularly scheduled meetings. The Board noted the Advisor’s expertise and resources in monitoring the performance, investment style, and risk-adjusted performance of the Subadvisor. The Board was mindful of the Advisor’s focus on the Subadvisor’s performance. The Board also noted the Subadvisor’s long-term performance record for similar accounts, as applicable.

The Board’s decision to approve the Subadvisory Agreement with respect to each Fund was based on a number of determinations, including the following:

(1)the Subadvisor has extensive experience and demonstrated skills as a manager;

(2)the performance of the Funds has generally been in line with or generally outperformed the historical performance of comparable funds based on the median percentile over the long term with certain exceptions noted in Appendix A (with respect to such exceptions, the Board considered the steps the Subadvisor had taken or plans to take to address performance and concluded that performance is being monitored and reasonably being addressed, where appropriate);

(3)the subadvisory fee is reasonable in relation to the level and quality of services being provided under the Subadvisory Agreement; and

(4)subadvisory fees are paid by the Advisor and not the Funds and the advisory fees for each Fund contains breakpoints that permit shareholders to benefit from economies of scale if those Funds grow. 

In addition, in the case of each Fund, the Trustees reviewed the subadvisory fee to be paid to the Subadvisor for each Fund and noted that the Advisor has evaluated the complexity of the structure and fees and expenses associated with the Funds’ investments in the underlying portfolios and that the Advisor made a finding that the Funds’ expenses do not duplicate the fees and expenses of the underlying portfolios.
