Investment Goal

This Fund seeks long-term growth of capital.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the table and Examples below. The table and Examples below also do not reflect expenses and charges that are imposed under your variable annuity contract or variable life insurance policy. For information on these expenses and charges, please refer to the applicable contract or policy prospectus. If these fees and expenses were included, the fees and expenses shown would be higher.

Annual Fund Operating Expenses (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)

Examples

The Examples are intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other Funds of the Trust or other mutual funds. The Examples assume that you invest $10,000 for the time periods indicated, that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's annual operating expenses remain as stated in the previous table for the time periods shown. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, the Examples show what your costs would be based on these assumptions.

These Examples do not reflect fees and expenses of any variable annuity contract or variable life insurance policy. If these were included, the expenses (in dollars) shown would be higher. Keep in mind that this is only an estimate; actual expenses and performance may vary.

Your expenses (in dollars) if you buy, sell/redeem or hold all of your shares at the end of each period

Portfolio Turnover

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its holdings). During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, the portfolio turnover rate was 30% of the average value of the Fund. A higher portfolio turnover rate reflects a greater number of securities being bought or sold, which may indicate higher transaction costs. These costs, which are not reflected in Annual Fund Operating Expenses or in the Examples, affect the Fund's performance.

Principal Investment Strategies

This Fund normally invests primarily in common stocks. The sub-adviser focuses on investing the Fund's assets in the stocks of companies it believes to have above average earnings growth potential compared to other companies (also called growth companies). The sub-adviser primarily invests in large-capitalization companies and may also invest in mid-capitalization companies. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in foreign securities that are either U.S. dollar or foreign currency-denominated.

The sub-adviser normally invests the Fund's assets across different groups of industries/sectors, but may invest a significant percentage of the Fund's assets in issuers in a single sector at its investment discretion in seeking the investment goal of the Fund. As of December 31, 2023, a significant portion of the Fund is represented by securities of companies in the Technology sector.

The Fund may invest in a smaller number of holdings.

The sub-adviser uses an active bottom-up investment approach to buying and selling investments for the Fund. Investments are selected primarily based on fundamental analysis of individual

issuers and their potential in light of their financial condition, and market, economic, political, and regulatory conditions. Factors considered may include analysis of an issuer's earnings, cash flows, competitive position, and management ability. Quantitative screening tools that systematically evaluate an issuer's valuation, price and earnings momentum, earnings quality, and other factors, may also be considered.

The sub-adviser may sell a holding for a variety of reasons, such as to secure gains, limit losses, or redeploy assets into opportunities believed to be more promising, among others.

Principal Risks

As with any mutual fund, the value of the Fund's investments, and therefore the value of your shares, may go up or down and you could lose money. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its investment goal. An investment in the Fund is not a deposit of a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Italicized terms refer to separate Principal Risks that are each defined in the Principal Risks section below.

While the Fund may be subject to various risk exposures at any given time depending on market conditions and other factors impacting holdings and investment strategies, the Fund under normal circumstances is subject to the following principal risks:

•

Equity Securities Risk: Equity securities tend to go up and down in value, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably.

​

•

Growth Companies Risk: Growth companies are those that a portfolio manager believes have the potential for above average or rapid growth but may be subject to greater price volatility than investments in "undervalued" companies.

​

•

Large-Capitalization Companies Risk: Although large-capitalization companies tend to have more stable prices than smaller, less established companies, they are still subject to equity securities risk. In addition, large-capitalization equity security prices may not rise as much as prices of equity securities of small-capitalization companies.

​

•

Technology Sector Risk: Companies in the technology sector face a number of risks, including operating in rapidly changing fields, abrupt or erratic market movements, limited product lines, markets or financial resources, management that is dependent on a limited number of people, short product cycles, aggressive pricing of products and services, new market entrants and rapid obsolescence of products and services due to technological innovations or changing consumer preferences. In addition, many U.S. companies in the technology sector have diverse operations, with products or services in foreign markets, exposing them to risks associated with foreign markets.

​

•

Active Management Risk: A portfolio manager's judgments about the potential value or price appreciation of an investment may prove to be incorrect or fail to have the intended results, which could negatively impact the Fund's performance.

​

•

Small Number of Holdings Risk: Because performance may be dependent on a smaller number of holdings, the Fund may be more adversely impacted by price volatility than funds with a greater number of holdings.

​

•

Currency Risk: A decline in the value of a foreign (non-U.S.) currency relative to the U.S. dollar reduces the value in U.S. dollars of the Fund's investments denominated in or with exposure to that foreign currency.

​

•

Foreign (Non-U.S.) Markets Risk: Investing in foreign issuers (companies or other entities) can involve more risks than investing in U.S. issuers, such as risks relating to market, economic, political, regulatory and geopolitical conditions relevant to that market. These factors can make investments in foreign issuers more volatile and less liquid than U.S. investments. Less stringent regulatory, accounting, and disclosure requirements and general supervision for issuers and markets are more common in certain foreign countries. Enforcing legal rights can be difficult, costly, and slow in certain foreign countries, and can be particularly difficult against foreign governments. In addition, foreign markets can react differently to these conditions than the U.S. market. Markets and economies throughout the world are becoming increasingly interconnected, and conditions or events in one market, country or region may adversely impact investments or issuers in, or foreign exchange rates with, another market, country or region.

​

•

Mid-Capitalization Companies Risk: Mid-capitalization companies may be subject to greater price volatility and may be more vulnerable to economic, market and industry changes than larger, more established companies.

​

•

Underlying Fund Risk: Because the Fund is available for investment by one or more "fund of funds" of the Trust and thus may have a significant percentage of its outstanding shares held by such fund of funds, a change in asset allocation by the fund of funds could result in large redemptions out of the Fund, causing the sale of securities in a short timeframe and potential increases in expenses to the Fund and its remaining shareholders, both of which could negatively impact performance.

​

Performance

The bar chart and Average Annual Total Returns table below show performance information for the Fund and provide some indication of the risk of investing in the Fund by showing changes in the performance of the Fund from year to year and showing how the Fund's average annual total returns compare to the returns of:

•

a broad-based securities market index that represents the overall domestic equity market (the "Regulatory Benchmark") which the Fund has added to comply with new regulatory requirements and thus may not necessarily represent the Fund's principal investment strategies; and

​

•

a growth domestic equity market index that the Investment Adviser considers to be representative of the growth domestic equity markets and the Fund's principal investment strategies. The Investment Adviser considers the growth domestic equity markets index to continue to be the appropriate benchmark index for the Fund for performance comparison.

​

The bar chart shows the performance of the Fund's Class I shares. Returns do not reflect fees and expenses of any variable annuity contract or variable life insurance policy; if these fees and expenses

were included, the returns shown would be lower. Past performance is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future. Performance reflects fee waivers or expense limitations, if any, that were in effect during the periods presented.

Calendar Year Total Returns (%)

​

Best and worst quarterly performance reflected within the bar chart: Q2 2020: 25.20%; Q2 2022: (19.40%)

Management

Investment Adviser - Pacific Life Fund Advisors LLC

Sub-Adviser - MFS Investment Management. The persons jointly and primarily responsible for day-to-day management of the Fund are:

Purchase and Sale of Fund Shares

The Fund is offered at net asset value ("NAV") and is available as an underlying investment option for variable life insurance policies and variable annuity contracts ("variable products") issued by Pacific Life and PL&A. You do not buy, sell or exchange shares of the Fund - you choose investment options through your variable product. The life insurance companies then invest in the Fund if you choose it as an investment option and redeem shares of the Fund if you choose to decrease that investment option. Any minimum initial or subsequent investment requirements and procedures for purchase or redemption of shares of the Fund that apply to your variable product are described in the prospectus for the variable product.

Tax Information

Because the only shareholders of the Fund are the insurance companies offering the variable products and as applicable certain

funds of funds of the Trust, no discussion is included here about the federal income tax consequences at the shareholder level. The federal income tax consequences for purchasers of a variable product are described in the prospectus for the variable product.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries

Pacific Select Distributors, LLC ("PSD"), the distributor for the Fund and for the variable products, may pay broker-dealers or other financial intermediaries (such as insurance companies) for the sale of the variable products and related services, including shareholder servicing. The Fund's service fee or distribution/​service fee, as applicable, which is paid to PSD, can be used for a part of these payments. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the financial intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the variable product, a share class and/or the Fund over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary's website for more information. Class P shares do not pay a service or distribution/service fee to PSD.
