Portfolio Turnover. The Fund may paytransaction costs, such ascommissions, when it buys and sellssecurities (or “turns over” its portfolio).A higher portfolio turnover rate mayindicate higher transaction costs andmay result in higher taxes when Fundshares are held in a taxable account.These costs, which are not reflected inthe Annual Fund Operating Expenses orin the Example, affect the Fund’sperformance. During the most recentfiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnoverrate was 12% of the average value of itsportfolio.

Principal InvestmentStrategiesThe Fund seeks to track the investmentresults of the Dow Jones U.S. Oil & GasIndex (the “Underlying Index”), whichmeasures the performance of the oiland gas sector of the U.S. equitymarket. The Underlying Index includeslarge-, mid- and small-capitalizationcompanies and may change over time.As of April 30, 2020, a significantportion of the Underlying Index isrepresented by securities of companiesin the energy and oil and gas industriesor sectors. The components of theUnderlying Index are likely to changeover time.

BFA uses a “passive” or indexingapproach to try to achieve the Fund’sinvestment objective. Unlike manyinvestment companies, the Fund doesnot try to “beat” the index it tracks anddoes not seek temporary defensivepositions when markets decline orappear overvalued.

Indexing may eliminate the chance thatthe Fund will substantially outperformthe Underlying Index but also mayreduce some of the risks of activemanagement, such as poor security

selection. Indexing seeks to achievelower costs and better after-taxperformance by aiming to keep portfolioturnover low in comparison to activelymanaged investment companies.

BFA uses a representative samplingindexing strategy to manage the Fund.“Representative sampling” is anindexing strategy that involves investingin a representative sample of securitiesthat collectively has an investmentprofile similar to that of an applicableunderlying index. The securitiesselected are expected to have, in theaggregate, investment characteristics(based on factors such as marketcapitalization and industry weightings),fundamental characteristics (such asreturn variability and yield) and liquiditymeasures similar to those of anapplicable underlying index. The Fundmay or may not hold all of the securitiesin the Underlying Index.

The Fund generally invests at least 90%of its assets in securities of theUnderlying Index and in depositaryreceipts representing securities of theUnderlying Index. The Fund may investthe remainder of its assets in certainfutures, options and swap contracts,cash and cash equivalents, includingshares of money market funds advisedby BFA or its affiliates, as well as insecurities not included in the UnderlyingIndex, but which BFA believes will helpthe Fund track the Underlying Index.The Fund seeks to track the investmentresults of the Underlying Index beforefees and expenses of the Fund.

The Fund may lend securitiesrepresenting up to one-third of thevalue of the Fund’s total assets(including the value of any collateralreceived).

The Underlying Index is sponsored byS&P Dow Jones Indices LLC (the “IndexProvider” or “SPDJI”), whichis independent of the Fund and BFA. TheIndex Provider determines thecomposition and relative weightings ofthe securities in the Underlying Indexand publishes information regarding themarket value of the Underlying Index.

Industry Concentration Policy. TheFund will concentrate its investments(i.e., hold 25% or more of its totalassets) in a particular industry or groupof industries to approximately the sameextent that the Underlying Index isconcentrated. For purposes of thislimitation, securities of the U.S.government (including its agencies andinstrumentalities) and repurchaseagreements collateralized by U.S.government securities are notconsidered to be issued by members ofany industry.

Summary of Principal RisksAs with any investment, you could loseall or part of your investment in theFund, and the Fund’s performance couldtrail that of other investments. The Fundis subject to certain risks, including theprincipal risks noted below, any ofwhich may adversely affect the Fund’snet asset value per share (“NAV”),trading price, yield, total return andability to meet its investment objective.The order of the below risk factors doesnot indicate the significance of anyparticular risk factor.

Asset Class Risk. Securities and otherassets in the Underlying Index or in theFund’s portfolio may underperform incomparison to the general financialmarkets, a particular financial market orother asset classes.

Authorized Participant ConcentrationRisk. Only an Authorized Participant (asdefined in the Creations andRedemptions section of this prospectus(the “Prospectus”)) may engage increation or redemption transactionsdirectly with the Fund, and none ofthose Authorized Participants isobligated to engage in creation and/orredemption transactions. The Fund hasa limited number of institutions thatmay act as Authorized Participants onan agency basis (i.e., on behalf of othermarket participants). To the extent thatAuthorized Participants exit thebusiness or are unable to proceed withcreation or redemption orders withrespect to the Fund and no otherAuthorized Participant is able to stepforward to create or redeem, Fundshares may be more likely to trade at apremium or discount to NAV andpossibly face trading halts or delisting.

Concentration Risk. The Fund may besusceptible to an increased risk of loss,including losses due to adverse eventsthat affect the Fund’s investments morethan the market as a whole, to theextent that the Fund’s investments areconcentrated in the securities and/orother assets of a particular issuer orissuers, country, group of countries,region, market, industry, group ofindustries, sector or asset class.

Cybersecurity Risk. Failures orbreaches of the electronic systems ofthe Fund, the Fund’s adviser,distributor, the Index Provider and otherservice providers, market makers,Authorized Participants or the issuers ofsecurities in which the Fund investshave the ability to cause disruptions,negatively impact the Fund’s businessoperations and/or potentially result infinancial losses to the Fund and itsshareholders. While the Fund has

S-3

Page 17: 2020 Summary Prospectus - iShares...Ticker: IYE Stock Exchange: NYSE Arca Investment Objective The iShares U.S. Energy ETF (the “Fund”) seeks to track the investment results of

established business continuity plansand risk management systems seekingto address system breaches or failures,there are inherent limitations in suchplans and systems. Furthermore, theFund cannot control the cybersecurityplans and systems of the Fund’s IndexProvider and other service providers,market makers, Authorized Participantsor issuers of securities in which theFund invests.

Dividend Risk. There is no guaranteethat issuers of the stocks held by theFund will declare dividends in the futureor that, if declared, they will be paid, orthat they will either remain at currentlevels or increase over time.

Energy Sector Risk. The market valueof securities in the energy sector maydecline for many reasons, including,among others, changes in energy prices,energy supply and demand, governmentregulations and energy conservationefforts.

Equity Securities Risk. Equitysecurities are subject to changes invalue, and their values may be morevolatile than those of other assetclasses. The Underlying Index iscomprised of common stocks, whichgenerally subject their holders to morerisks than preferred stocks and debtsecurities because commonstockholders’ claims are subordinatedto those of holders of preferred stocksand debt securities upon the bankruptcyof the issuer.

Index-Related Risk. There is noguarantee that the Fund’s investmentresults will have a high degree ofcorrelation to those of the UnderlyingIndex or that the Fund will achieve itsinvestment objective. Marketdisruptions and regulatory restrictionscould have an adverse effect on the

Fund’s ability to adjust its exposure tothe required levels in order to track theUnderlying Index. Errors in index data,index computations or the constructionof the Underlying Index in accordancewith its methodology may occur fromtime to time and may not be identifiedand corrected by the Index Provider fora period of time or at all, which mayhave an adverse impact on the Fundand its shareholders. Unusual marketconditions may cause the IndexProvider to postpone a scheduledrebalance, which could cause theUnderlying Index to vary from its normalor expected composition.

Infectious Illness Risk. An outbreak ofan infectious respiratory illness, COVID-19, caused by a novel coronavirus hasresulted in travel restrictions, disruptionof healthcare systems, prolongedquarantines, cancellations, supply chaindisruptions, lower consumer demand,layoffs, ratings downgrades, defaultsand other significant economic impacts.Certain markets have experiencedtemporary closures, extreme volatility,severe losses, reduced liquidity andincreased trading costs.
