The Company was incorporated in Ireland on 2 December 2009 with limited liability and segregated liability between its Funds and is organised under the laws of Ireland as a Public Limited Company (“PLC”) pursuant to the Companies Act 2014 (as amended) and the European Communities (Undertakings for Collective Investment in Transferable Securities) Regulations, 2011 (as amended) (the “UCITS Regulations”) and is regulated by the Central Bank of Ireland (“CBI”). The term “Fund” shall be deemed to mean either a fund of the Company, or if the context so requires, the Manager or its delegate acting for the account of the relevant Fund. The term “BlackRock” is used to represent BlackRock Advisors (UK) Limited. The investment objectives and policies of each Fund are set out in the prospectus. The Company is structured as an umbrella Fund and comprises separate Funds (“Funds”) of the Company. Each Fund of the Company comprises a distinct portfolio of investments. The shares of each Fund may be issued with different rights, features and on different terms and conditions to those of other Funds. Shares of a Fund may be divided into different share classes with different dividend policies, currency hedging and valuation currencies and may therefore have different fees and expenses. A currency hedged share class is a share class of a Fund which allows the use of hedging transactions to reduce the effect of exchange rate fluctuations. Unhedged share classes are also available to investors. The Company may issue currency hedged share classes in Funds that are not currency hedged Funds. Currency hedged Funds are identified on the Fund detailstableonpage5and6. While assets and liabilities that are specific to a share class within a Fund would be attributable to (and should be borne by) only that share class, there is no segregation of liabilities between share classes as a matter of Irish law. Due to the lack of segregation of liabilities as a matter of law, there is a risk that the creditors of a share class may bring a claim against the assets of the Fund notionally allocated to other share classes. The financial instruments and risks section of the financial statements provides more details on the management of foreign currency risk in relation to the currency hedged share classes. The Investment Manager may use derivatives (for example, forward currency contracts, futures, options and swaps, or such other instruments as are permitted) to hedge the rate of exchange between the currency of all or some of the currencies in which the assets of a Fund (including cash and income) are denominated and the share class valuation currencies. The transactions, costs and related liabilities and benefits arising from instruments entered into for the purposes of hedging the currency exposure for the benefit of any particular currency hedged share classes shall be attributed only to the relevant currency hedged share classes. Currency exposures of different share classes may not be combined or offset and currency exposures of the assets of a Fund may not be allocated to separate share classes. Changes to the Company Effective 10 December 2018, the registered address of the Manager was updated to 1st Floor, 2 Ballsbridge Park, Ballsbridge, Dublin 4, D04 YW83, Ireland. Effective 10 December 2018, the registered office address was updated to 200 Capital Dock, 79 Sir John Rogerson’s Quay, Dublin 2, D02 RK57, Ireland. On 21 December 2018, an updated prospectus was issued by the Company. David Moroney resigned as a non-executive Director on 26 April 2019. Ros O’Shea and Deirdre Somers were appointed as non-executive Directors on 3 May 2019. On 17 May 2019, PricewaterhouseCoopers resigned as independent auditors of the Company and Deloitte Ireland LLP were appointed. On 24 May 2019, an updated prospectus was issued by the Company. Potential Implications of Brexit In the referendum held on 23 June 2016 the United Kingdom (“UK”) voted to leave the European Union (“EU”). This has been followed by a continued period of political and economic uncertainty, culminating in the resignation of Prime Minister Theresa May, and the election of Boris Johnson as Conservative Party leader and Prime Minister. [4] iSHARES V PLC INTERIM REPORT iSHARES V PLC Background (continued) Potential Implications of Brexit (continued) BlackRock is implementing a number of steps to prepare for various outcomes, including effecting organisational, governance and operational changes, applying for and receiving licenses and permissions in the EU, and engaging in client communications. Depending on the terms of the UK’s exit from the EU, BlackRock may experience organisational and operational challenges, incur additional costs or face other execution risks in connection with its European operations post-Brexit. Following the Emergency EU Summit held on 10 April 2019, an agreement was reached to provide an extension for the UK to leave the EU. This extension will only be as long as necessary and no longer than 31 October 2019 unless another extension is agreed. If the withdrawal agreement is ratified before this date, the withdrawal will take place on the first
