The Small/Mid Cap Growth Fund invests in equity investments with a primary focus on small- and mid-cap companies. The securities of small and mid capitalization companies involve greater risks than those associated with larger, more established companies and may be subject to more abrupt or erratic price movements. The Fund may also invest in foreign securities and emerging market securities. Foreign and emerging market securities may be more volatile than investment in U.S. securities and will be subject to the risks of currency fluctuations and political developments.

The returns represent past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The Fund’s investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted above. Please visit our Web site at: www.goldmansachsfunds.com to obtain the most recent month-end returns.

The Standardized Total Returns are average annual total returns or cumulative total returns (only if the performance period is one year or less) as of the most recent calendar quarter-end. They assume reinvestment of all distributions at net asset value. These returns reflect the maximum initial sales charge for Class A shares and CDSC for Class B and C shares. Because Institutional, Service, Administration, Class R and Class IR Shares do not involve a sales charge, such a charge is not applied to their Standardized Total Returns. Shares of some of the funds may be subject to a redemption fee. Please refer to the current prospectus.

NAV: The NAV (Net Asset Value) represents the net assets of the Fund (ex-dividend) divided by the total number of shares. The expense ratios of the funds, both with and without any waivers and expense limitations, are as set forth above. The waivers and expense limitations are voluntary and may be modified or terminated at any time at the option of the Investment Adviser. If this occurs, the expense ratio may increase without shareholder approval.

Equity funds are subject to the risk of rising and falling stock prices and have tended to be more volatile than funds that invest in fixed income securities. Bond funds fluctuate in value with changes in interest rates, and lower-rated bonds involve higher credit risk and may be speculative investments. Funds concentrated in non-US investments may be more volatile than US investments and involve special political and currency risks. A fund concentrated in an economic sector or geographical region will also be more volatile.
