LETTER FROM THE CHAIRPERSON

Dear Shareholders:

Despite June’s unexpected vote by the United Kingdom to leave the European Unionand the surprising result in November’s U.S. presidential election, most markets haveproved resilient. U.S. share prices quickly reversed post-Brexit declines, and indicesreached new highs following the November elections. U.S. bond yields rose afterDonald Trump’s victory on hopes that his proposed policy mix of lower taxes,increased spending on infrastructure and a lighter regulatory burden for businesseswill lift both U.S. economic growth and inflation. However, interest rates in mostdeveloped markets remain very low, with major central banks maintaining extremelyaccommodative monetary policies to reinvigorate slow-growing economies against abackdrop of still-low inflation. Even after the rise in yields following the election,interest rates remain low by historical standards.

Globally, economic growth has shown signs of recovery of late, led by the UnitedStates and the eurozone. Despite better growth, there are few immediate signs ofworrisome inflation. Emerging market economies are recovering at a somewhatslower pace amid fears that restrictive U.S. trade policies could further hamper thealready slow pace of global trade growth. Looking ahead, markets will have tocontend with a series of European elections during 2017, which, depending on theoutcomes, could further call into question the future direction of the European Union.

At MFS®, we believe in a patient, long-term approach to investing. Viewinginvestments with a long lens makes it possible to filter out short-term market noiseand focus on achieving solid risk-adjusted returns over a full market cycle.

In our view, such an approach, along with the professional guidance of a financialadvisor, will help you reach your investment objectives.

Respectfully,

CERTAIN RISK MANAGEMENT DISCLOSURES (unaudited)

Information Regarding Global Exposure Under The Funds’ Risk Management Program

The fund’s Management Company must employ a risk management process which enables it to monitor and measure atany time the risk of the positions in the sub-funds’ portfolios and their contribution to the overall risk profile of theirportfolios. The global exposure relating to financial derivative instruments may be calculated through the “commitmentapproach” or through a Value-at-Risk (“VaR”) methodology. Generally, a sub-fund that uses derivatives more extensivelyor as part of its investment objective will utilize the VaR methodology, and a sub-fund that uses derivatives lessextensively will utilize the commitment approach.

For each sub-fund except the Absolute Return Fund, Emerging Markets Debt Local Currency Fund, Global Multi-AssetFund, Global Opportunistic Bond Fund, and the Managed Wealth Fund, the commitment approach methodology is usedto calculate global exposure. The commitment approach is based, in part, on the principle of converting the exposure toderivative instruments into equivalent positions of the underlying assets and quantifying the exposure in absolute valueof the total commitments (which may account for hedging and netting).

For the Absolute Return Fund, Global Multi-Asset Fund, and the Managed Wealth Fund, an absolute Value-at-Risk(“VaR”) approach is used and for the Emerging Markets Debt Local Currency Fund and the Global Opportunistic BondFund, a relative VaR approach is used, to measure global exposure. VaR provides a measure of the potential minimumloss that could arise over a given time interval under normal market conditions, and at a given confidence level. The sub-funds’ risk management program limits the maximum VaR that the sub-fund can have relative to its net asset value forabsolute VaR or relative to its benchmark for relative VaR, as determined by the sub-fund taking into account itsinvestment policy and risk profile. For each of the Absolute Return Fund, Global Multi-Asset Fund, and the ManagedWealth Fund the absolute VaR cannot be greater than 20% of its respective net asset value. For the Emerging MarketsDebt Local Currency Fund and the Global Opportunistic Bond Fund the relative VaR cannot be greater than 200% of itscurrent benchmark. The VaR approach used by each of these sub-funds is based upon an historical model. The VaR ismeasured daily at the 99% level of confidence based on a one month (20 day) holding period. The underlying data setencompasses one year of data (minimum of 250 observations).

For the Absolute Return Fund, the expected level of leverage may vary between 0% and 400% (measured using the sumof the notional value of derivatives used by the sub-fund), based on the net asset value of the sub-fund. In addition, theManagement Company supplementally monitors the expected level of leverage measured using the commitmentapproach, which may vary between 0% and 200% based on the net asset value of the sub-fund. Under certaincircumstances, the level of leverage might exceed the ranges noted above.

For the Emerging Markets Debt Local Currency Fund, the expected level of leverage may vary between 0% and 375%(measured using the sum of the notional value of derivatives used by the sub-fund), based on the net asset value of thesub-fund. In addition, the Management Company supplementally monitors the expected level of leverage measuredusing the commitment approach, which may vary between 0% and 125% based on the net asset value of the sub-fund.Under certain circumstances, the level of leverage might exceed the ranges noted above.

For the Global Multi-Asset Fund, the expected level of leverage may vary between 0% and 400% (measured using thesum of notional value of derivatives used by the sub-fund), based on the net asset value of the sub-fund. In addition, theManagement Company supplementally monitors the expected level of leverage measured using the commitment

approach, which may vary between 0% and 200% based on the net asset value of the sub-fund. Under certaincircumstances, the level of leverage might exceed the ranges noted above.

For the Global Opportunistic Bond Fund, the expected level of leverage may vary between 0% and 400% (measuredusing the sum of the notional value of derivatives used by the sub-fund), based on the net asset value of the sub-fund.In addition, the Management Company supplementally monitors the expected level of leverage measured using thecommitment approach, which may vary between 0% and 125% based on the net asset value of the sub-fund. Undercertain circumstances, the level of leverage might exceed the ranges noted above.

For the Managed Wealth Fund, the expected level of leverage may vary between 0% and 200% (measured using thesum of the notional value of derivatives used by the sub-fund), based on the net asset value of the sub-fund. In addition,the Management Company supplementally monitors the expected level of leverage measured using the commitmentapproach, which may vary between 0% and 150% based on the net asset value of the sub-fund. Under certaincircumstances, the level of leverage might exceed the ranges noted above.

The sum of notional value is the sum of the absolute values of the full underlying exposures of our derivative positions.The sum of notional value is based upon the full notional exposure with no netting or hedging. Under both levels ofleverage methodologies, the sum of the absolute exposures is calculated in order that exposures of opposite signs tounrelated assets do not offset each other in the final result.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS at 31 January 2017

Note 1: The Fund

The MFS Meridian Funds (the “fund” or the “Company”) is an open-ended investment company incorporated under the laws of the Grand Duchy ofLuxembourg on 4 February 1992. It is organised under Part I of the Luxembourg Law of 17 December 2010 on Undertakings for Collective Investment, asamended as a Société Anonyme qualifying as a “Société d’Investissement à Capital Variable” (SICAV). The fund is registered with the Registre de Commerceet des Sociétés of Luxembourg, under number R.C.S. B 39346. On 31 October 2014, MFS Investment Management Company (Lux) S.à r.l. (“MFS Lux”) wasappointed by the fund to act as Management Company.

The fund is organised as an “umbrella fund” comprising separate sub-funds each of which relates to a separate portfolio of securities with specific investmentobjectives. At 31 January 2017, it comprises 37 sub-funds, each relating to a separate investment portfolio consisting of securities, cash, and otherinstruments. Each sub-fund may offer various types of classes of shares, which may differ in the minimum subscription amount, minimum holding amount,currency and/or eligibility requirements, the fees and expenses, and the dividend policy applicable to them. The fund may be offered for sale in EuropeanEconomic Area (“EEA”) states, subject to notification in countries other than the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. Please note that not all of the sub-funds orclasses may be registered or authorized for distribution in every jurisdiction. Share classes available for each sub-fund at 31 January 2017 can be found under“Statistical Information” in this report.

Effective as of the close of trading on 29 July 2016, the Prudent Wealth Fund was closed to new accounts and/or new investors, subject to certain exceptions.Existing investors (holding shares directly or via a Financial Intermediary holding an account with the sub-fund) as of the close of business on 29 July 2016can continue to make additional purchases and reinvest distributions in the sub-fund in any account that held shares of the sub-fund as of such date. See thesub-fund’s prospectus for additional details.

Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Luxembourg legal and regulatory requirements applicable to investment funds. Areconciliation of the impact on net investment income for those impacted sub-funds arising from accounting differences between Luxembourg legal andregulatory requirements for investment funds and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) used in the United States is provided in Note 16.

A) Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in Luxembourg requiresmanagement to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of income andexpenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

B) Financial Instrument Valuations – Equity securities are generally valued at the last sale or official closing price on their primary market or exchange asprovided by a third-party pricing service. Equity securities, for which there were no sales reported that day, are generally valued at the last quoted dailybid quotation on their primary market or exchange as provided by a third-party pricing service.

Debt instruments and floating rate loans are generally valued at an evaluated or composite bid as provided by a third-party pricing service.

Exchange-traded options are generally valued at the last sale or official closing price on their primary exchange as provided by a third-party pricingservice. Exchange-traded options for which there were no sales reported that day are generally valued at the last daily bid quotation on their primaryexchange as provided by a third-party pricing service. Options not traded on an exchange are generally valued at a broker/dealer bid quotation. Foreigncurrency options are generally valued at valuations provided by a third-party pricing service.

Futures contracts are generally valued at the last posted settlement price on their primary exchange as provided by a third-party pricing service. Futurescontracts for which there were no trades that day for a particular position are generally valued at the closing bid quotation on their primary exchange asprovided by a third-party pricing service.

Swap agreements are generally valued at valuations provided by a third-party pricing service, which for cleared swaps includes an evaluation of anytrading activity at the clearinghouses.

Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are generally valued at the mean of bid and asked prices for the time period interpolated from ratesprovided by a third-party pricing service for proximate time periods.

Short-term instruments with a maturity at issuance of 60 days or less may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

Securities and other assets generally valued on the basis of information from a third-party pricing service may also be valued at a broker/dealer bidquotation.

Values obtained from third-party pricing services can utilize both transaction data and market information such as yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity,type of issue, trading characteristics, and other market data. The values of securities and other assets and liabilities expressed in non-base currencies areconverted to the base currency of the sub-fund based upon exchange rates provided by a third-party source.

The Management Company has delegated primary responsibility for determining or causing to be determined the value of the sub-fund’s investments(including any fair valuation) to Massachusetts Financial Services Company (“MFS”), the Investment Manager, pursuant to valuation policies andprocedures approved by the Board of Directors and under the oversight of the Board of Directors. In carrying out the valuation policies and procedures,the Investment Manager provides instructions to the Administration Agent on an ongoing basis. If the Investment Manager determines that reliablemarket quotations are not readily available, investments are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Investment Manager in accordancewith such procedures under the oversight of the Board of Directors.

Under the valuation policies and procedures applicable to the sub-funds, investments may be valued at fair value if the Investment Manager determinesthat an investment’s value has been materially affected by events occurring after the close of the exchange or market on which the investment isprincipally traded (such as foreign exchange or market) and prior to the determination of the sub-fund’s net asset value, or after the halting of trading ofa specific security where trading does not resume prior to the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded. Events that

MFS Meridian Funds Annual Report 2017 175

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS at 31 January 2017

occur on a frequent basis after markets close (such as developments in foreign markets) and prior to the determination of the sub-fund’s net asset valuemay be deemed to have a material effect on the value of securities traded in these markets. Accordingly, the sub-fund’s non-U.S. (“foreign”) equitysecurities may often be valued at fair value. The Investment Manager may rely on third-party pricing services or other information (such as the correlationwith price movements of similar securities in the same or other markets; the type, cost and investment characteristics of the security; the business andfinancial condition of the issuer; and trading and other market data) to assist in determining whether to fair value and at what value to fair value aninvestment. The value of an investment for purposes of calculating the sub-fund’s net asset value can differ depending on the source and method used todetermine the value. When fair valuation is used, the value of an investment used to determine the sub-fund’s net asset value may differ from quoted orpublished prices for the same investment. There can be no assurance that the sub-fund could obtain the fair value assigned to an investment if it were tosell the investment at the same time at which the sub-fund determines its net asset value per share.

C) Dividends and Interest – Dividends received in cash are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain dividends from foreign securities will be recordedwhen the sub-fund is informed of the dividend if such information is obtained subsequent to the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on theaccrual basis. Each sub-fund generally accretes discounts on debt securities as adjustments to interest income. The sub-funds do not amortize premiumson debt securities. Dividend and interest payments received in additional securities are recorded on the ex-dividend or ex-interest date in an amount equalto the value of the security on such date.

The sub-funds may receive proceeds from litigation settlements. Any proceeds received from litigation involving portfolio holdings are reflected in theStatements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets in net realized gain (loss) on investments, derivatives, and currency transactions if the security hasbeen disposed of by the sub-fund or in net change in unrealized gain (loss) on investments, derivatives, and currency translation if the security is still heldby the sub-fund. Any other proceeds from litigation not related to portfolio holdings are recorded as net realized gain, in the Statements of Operationsand Changes in Net Assets.

D) Foreign Currency Translation – Purchases and sales of foreign investments, income, and expenses initially expressed in foreign currencies are convertedeach business day into each sub-fund’s base currency based upon currency exchange rates prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions or onthe reporting date for foreign denominated receivables and payables. The base currency for the Blended Research European Equity Fund, ContinentalEuropean Equity Fund, European Core Equity Fund, European Research Fund, European Smaller Companies Fund, and European Value Fund is EUR. Thebase currency for the U.K. Equity Fund is GBP. The base currency for all the remaining sub-funds is USD. Gains and losses attributable to foreign currencyexchange rates on sales of securities and foreign exchange rate movements on receivables, payables, income, and expenses are recorded for financialstatement purposes as net realized gain (loss) on investments, derivatives, and currency transactions. The portion of both realized and unrealized gainsand losses on investments that results from fluctuations in currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed.

E) Cost of Securities Sold – In determining the cost of securities sold, each sub-fund uses the identified cost basis.

F) Derivative Collateral Requirements – Derivative counterparty credit risk is managed through formal evaluation of the creditworthiness of all potentialcounterparties. On certain, but not all, uncleared derivatives, the sub-fund attempts to reduce its exposure to counterparty credit risk, whenever possibleby entering into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association (“ISDA”) Master Agreement on a bilateral basis, at the sub-fund level. The ISDAMaster Agreement gives each party to the agreement the right to terminate all transactions traded under such agreement if there is a certain deteriorationin the credit quality of the other party. Upon an event of default or a termination of the ISDA Master Agreement, the non-defaulting party has the right toclose out all transactions traded under such agreement and to net amounts owed under each agreement to one net amount payable by one party to theother. This right to close out and net payments across all transactions traded under the ISDA Master Agreement could result in a reduction of thesub-fund’s credit risk to such counterparty equal to any amounts payable by the sub-fund under the applicable transactions, if any. These netting rightsmay be stayed or limited in the event the counterparty becomes insolvent. However, absent an event of default by the counterparty or a termination of theagreement, the ISDA Master Agreement does not result in an offset of reported balance sheet assets and liabilities across transactions between thesub-fund and the applicable counterparty.

Collateral and margin requirements differ by type of derivative. Margin requirements are set by the clearing broker and the clearinghouse for clearedderivatives (e.g., futures contracts, cleared swaps, and exchange-traded options). Collateral terms are contract specific for uncleared derivatives(e.g., forward foreign currency exchange contracts, uncleared swap agreements, and uncleared options). For derivatives traded under an ISDA MasterAgreement, which contains a collateral support annex, the collateral requirements are netted across all transactions traded under such agreement andone amount is posted from one party to the other to collateralize such obligations. Cash that has been segregated to cover the sub-fund’s collateral ormargin obligations under derivative contracts, if any, will be reported separately in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as restricted cash. Securitiespledged as collateral or margin for the same purpose, if any, are noted in the Schedules of Investments. The sub-funds may be required to make payments

176 MFS Meridian Funds Annual Report 2017

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS at 31 January 2017

of interest on uncovered collateral or margin obligations with the broker. Any such payments are included in “Interest expense and similar charges” in theStatements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets. Collateral received consists of cash and/or high quality government debt, which is not reported inthe Statements of Assets and Liabilities or Schedules of Investments. At 31 January 2017, the following sub-funds had segregated cash or received cashand/or high quality government debt as collateral for open uncleared derivatives.

G) Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts – Each sub-fund may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts for the purchase or saleof a specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date. Risks may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability ofcounterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of the contract. Certain sub-funds may enter intoforward foreign currency exchange contracts for efficient portfolio management, hedging, or for investment purposes. For efficient portfolio managementpurposes, the sub-fund may enter into contracts to deliver or receive foreign currency it will receive from or require in its normal investment activities. Forhedging purposes, the sub-fund may use contracts in a manner intended to protect foreign currency denominated securities from declines in value due tounfavorable exchange rate movements. For investment purposes, certain sub-funds may enter into contracts with the intent of changing the relativeexposure of the sub-fund’s portfolio of securities to different currencies to take advantage of anticipated exchange rate changes. The forward foreigncurrency exchange contracts are adjusted by the daily exchange rate of the underlying currency and any unrealized gains or losses are recorded as areceivable or payable for forward foreign currency exchange contracts until the contract settlement date. On contract settlement date, any gains or lossesare recorded as realized gain (loss) on investments, derivatives, and currency transactions in the Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets.Collateral, in the form of cash or securities, is held in segregated accounts with the sub-fund’s depositary in connection with these agreements. Details ofthe forward foreign currency exchange contracts outstanding are listed in Note 10.

H) Hedged Share Classes – Certain sub-funds offer classes with the aim to reduce exchange rate and return fluctuations between the applicable non-basecurrency hedged share class (“Hedged Share Classes”) and the unhedged base currency class of the relevant sub-fund. MFS will be responsible for engagingin hedging transactions for such Hedged Share Classes. The terms and conditions applicable to the Hedged Share Classes are the same as those which applyfor the same classes of shares offered in the base currency, the difference being the hedging of the Hedged Share Class to the base currency of the sub-fund. MFS may execute such hedging transactions by using various hedging techniques and instruments, including forward foreign currency exchangecontracts, foreign exchange swap contracts, currency futures, written call options, and purchased put options. The gains/losses and expenses of the hedgingprocess will be borne by the Hedged Share Classes. Given that there is no segregation of liabilities between share classes of the sub-funds, there is a riskthat, under certain circumstances, currency hedging transactions in relation to one share class (e.g. a Hedged Share Class) could result in liabilities whichmight affect the net asset value of the other share classes of the same sub-fund. For example, if a currency hedging transaction in respect of a Hedged ShareClass were to result in liabilities that the Hedged Share Class has insufficient assets to cover, assets attributable to the other share classes of the sub-fundmay be used to cover the liabilities. Further, collateral posting requirements, which may become more burdensome in light of recent regulatorydevelopments, may require the sub-fund to maintain a larger allocation to cash and cash-equivalent instruments than the Investment Manager wouldotherwise determine to hold. This could negatively affect performance for the sub-fund as a whole, even where the corresponding derivative transactionsare in respect of the Hedged Share Classes alone. Details of the class specific forward foreign currency exchange contracts outstanding are listed in Note 11.

I) Written Options – In exchange for a premium, each sub-fund may write call options on securities for which it anticipated the price would decline andalso write put options on securities for which it anticipated the price would increase. At the time the option was written, the sub-fund believed thepremium received exceeded the potential loss that could result from adverse price changes in the options’ underlying securities. In a written option, thesub-fund as the option writer grants the buyer the right to purchase from, or sell to, the sub-fund a specified number of shares or units of a particularsecurity, currency or index at a specified price within a specified period of time. The premium is initially recorded as a liability in the Statements of Assetsand Liabilities. The option is subsequently marked-to-market daily with the difference between the premium received and the market value of the writtenoption being recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. When a written option expires, the sub-fund realizes a gain equal to the amount of thepremium received. The difference between the premium and the amount paid on effecting a closing transaction is considered a realized gain or loss.When a written call option is exercised, the premium received is offset against the proceeds to determine the realized gain or loss. When a written putoption is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the security purchased by the sub-fund. In general, written call options may serve as a partialhedge against decreases in value in the underlying securities to the extent of the premium received. Collateral, for uncleared options, in the form of cashor securities, is held in segregated accounts with the sub-fund’s depositary in connection with these agreements.

At the initiation of the written option contract, for exchange traded options, the sub-fund is required to deposit securities or cash as collateral with eitherthe depositary for the benefit of the broker or directly with the clearing broker, based on the type of option. For uncleared options, the sub-fund may post

MFS Meridian Funds Annual Report 2017 177

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS at 31 January 2017

collateral subject to the terms of an ISDA Master Agreement as generally described above if the market value of the options contract moves against it.The sub-fund, as writer of an option, may have no control over whether the underlying securities may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and, as a result,bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the securities underlying the written option. Losses from writing options can exceed thepremium received and can exceed the potential loss from an ordinary buy and sell transaction. Although the sub-fund’s market risk may be significant, themaximum counterparty credit risk to the sub-fund is equal to the market value of any collateral posted to the broker. For uncleared options, this risk ismitigated in cases where there is an ISDA Master Agreement between the sub-fund and the counterparty providing for netting as described above.

J) Purchased Options – Each sub-fund may purchase call or put options for a premium. Purchased call and put options entitle the holder to buy or sell aspecified number of shares or units of a particular security, currency or index at a specified price at a specified date or within a specified period of time.Purchasing call options may be used to hedge against an anticipated increase in the cost of securities or currency to be acquired or to increase the sub-fund’s exposure to an underlying instrument. Purchasing put options may hedge against an anticipated decline in the value of portfolio securities or currencyor decrease the sub-fund’s exposure to an underlying instrument. The premium paid is initially recorded as an investment in the Schedules of Investments.That investment is subsequently marked-to-market daily with the difference between the premium paid and the market value of the purchased option beingrecorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Premiums paid for purchased call and put options which have expired are treated as net realized loss oninvestments in the Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets. Upon the exercise or closing of a purchased option, the premium paid is eitheradded to the cost of the security or financial instrument in the case of a call option, or offset against the proceeds on the sale of the underlying security orfinancial instrument in the case of a put option, in order to determine the net realized gain or loss on investments, derivatives, and currency transactions.Whether or not the option is exercised, the sub-fund’s maximum risk of loss from purchasing an option is the amount of premium paid. All option contractsinvolve credit risk if the counterparty to the option contract fails to perform. For uncleared options, this risk is mitigated in cases where there is an ISDAMaster Agreement between the fund and the counterparty providing for netting as described above and, where applicable, by the posting of collateral bythe counterparty to the sub-fund to cover the sub-fund’s exposure to the counterparty under such ISDA Master Agreement.

K) Swap Agreements – Certain sub-funds may enter into swap agreements. A swap agreement is generally an exchange of cash payments, at specifiedintervals or upon the occurrence of specified events, between the sub-fund and another party. Swaps may be centrally cleared (“cleared swaps”) oruncleared (“uncleared swaps”). In a cleared swap transaction, the ultimate counterparty to the transaction is a clearinghouse (the “clearinghouse”). Thecontract is transferred and accepted by the clearinghouse immediately following execution of the swap contract with an executing broker. Thereafter,throughout the term of the cleared swap, the sub-fund interfaces indirectly with the clearinghouse through a clearing broker and has counterparty risk tothe clearing broker as well. Net cash payments are exchanged at specified intervals and the expected income or expense is recorded on the accrual basis.The swap agreement is recorded at value and adjusted daily and the change in value is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation in theStatements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets. The value of the swap agreement, which is adjusted daily, is recorded in the Statements of Assetsand Liabilities, as “Swaps, at value” for uncleared swaps and is included in “Due from brokers” or “Due to brokers” for cleared swaps. Amounts paid orreceived at the inception of the swap agreement are disclosed as premiums paid or received in Note 14 and are amortized using the effective interestmethod over the term of the agreement. A liquidation payment received or made upon early termination is recorded as a realized gain or loss in theStatements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets. In most instances, collateral for uncleared swaps, in the form of cash or securities, is held insegregated accounts with the sub-fund’s depositary in connection with these agreements. Collateral may also be posted directly with certaincounterparties. Collateral for cleared swaps, in the form of cash or securities, is posted by the sub-fund directly to the clearing broker.

Risks related to swap agreements include the possible lack of a liquid market, unfavorable market and interest rate movements of the underlyinginstrument and the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the agreements. The sub-fund’s maximum risk of loss from counterpartycredit risk is the discounted net value of the cash flows to be received from/paid to the counterparty over the contract’s remaining life, to the extent thatthe amount is positive, plus any collateral posted directly to the counterparty. To address counterparty risk, uncleared swap agreements are limited to onlyhighly-rated counterparties. Risk is further reduced by having an ISDA Master Agreement between the sub-fund and its counterparty providing for nettingas described above and, where applicable, by the posting of collateral by the counterparty to the sub-fund to cover the sub-fund’s exposure to thecounterparty under such ISDA Master Agreement. The sub-fund’s counterparty risk due to cleared swaps is mitigated by the fact that the clearinghouse isthe true counterparty to the transaction and the regulatory safeguards in the event of a clearinghouse or clearing broker bankruptcy. Certain sub-fundsmay enter into swaps for efficient portfolio management. Certain sub-funds may also enter into swaps for investment purposes. For efficient portfoliomanagement purposes, the sub-fund may use swaps to reduce its exposure to interest and foreign exchange rate fluctuations. For investment purposes,certain sub-funds may use swaps to take a position on anticipated changes in the underlying financial index.

Interest Rate Swaps – Interest rate swap agreements involve the periodic exchange of cash flows, between the sub-fund and a counterparty, based onthe differences between two interest rates applied to a notional principal amount. The two interest rates exchanged may either be a fixed rate and afloating rate or two floating rates based on different indices. The net receivable or payable associated with these payments is accrued daily and recordedas an unrealized gain or loss, and any payments received or made are recorded as realized gain or loss, in the Statements of Operations and Changes inNet Assets. Details of the interest rate swaps outstanding are listed in Note 14.

Total Return Swaps – Total return swap agreements involve commitments to pay interest in exchange for a market-linked return based on a notionalamount. To the extent the total return of the security or index underlying the transaction exceeds or falls short of the offsetting interest rate obligation,the sub-funds will receive a payment from or make a payment to the counterparty, respectively. The sub-funds may enter into total return swaps on aparticular security, or a basket or index of securities, in order to gain exposure to the underlying security or securities. Details of the total return swapsoutstanding are listed in Note 14.

Credit Default Swaps – Credit default swaps are agreements to manage a sub-fund’s exposure to the market or certain sectors of the market, to reducea sub-fund’s credit risk exposure to defaults of corporate and sovereign issuers or to create exposure to corporate or sovereign issuers to which it is nototherwise exposed. In a credit default swap, the protection buyer can make an upfront payment and will make a stream of payments to the protectionseller based on a fixed percentage applied to the contract notional amount in exchange for the right to receive a specified return upon the occurrence of adefined credit event on the reference obligation (which may be either a single security or a basket of securities issued by corporate or sovereign issuers)and, with respect to the cases where physical settlement applies, the delivery by the buyer to the seller of a defined deliverable obligation. Although

178 MFS Meridian Funds Annual Report 2017

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS at 31 January 2017

agreement specific, credit events generally consist of a combination of the following: bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring, obligation acceleration,obligation default, or repudiation/moratorium, each as defined in the 2003 ISDA Credit Derivatives Definitions as amended by the relevant contract.Restructuring is generally not applicable when the reference obligation is issued by a North American corporation and obligation acceleration, obligationdefault, or repudiation/moratorium are generally only applicable when the reference obligation is issued by a sovereign entity or an entity in an emergingcountry. Upon determination of the final price for the deliverable obligation (or upon delivery of the deliverable obligation in the case of physicalsettlement), the difference between the value of the deliverable obligation and the swap’s notional amount is recorded as realized gain or loss in theStatements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets. As discussed earlier in this note, collateral requirements for these swaps, if uncleared, are basedgenerally on the market value of the swap netted against collateral requirements for other types of uncleared derivatives traded under each counterparty’sISDA Master Agreement. Details of the credit default swaps outstanding are listed in Note 14.

L) Futures Contracts – The sub-funds may enter into futures contracts which may be used to hedge against or obtain broad market exposure, interest rateexposure, currency exposure, or to manage duration. A futures contract represents a commitment for the future purchase or sale of an asset at a specifiedprice on a specified date. Upon entering into a futures contract, the sub-fund is required to deposit with the broker either in cash or securities an initialmargin in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the notional amount of the contract, which subjects the sub-fund to counterparty risk to theclearing broker and possibly the clearinghouse with respect to such collateral. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received by the sub-fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the contract, and are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized gains orlosses by the sub-fund until the contract is closed or expires at which point the gain or loss on futures contracts is realized. Upon entering into suchcontracts, the sub-fund bears the risk of interest or exchange rates or securities’ prices moving unexpectedly, in which case, the sub-fund may not achievethe anticipated benefits of the futures contracts and may realize a loss. Details of the futures contracts outstanding, including collateral amounts postedby a sub-fund for such contracts, are recorded in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as “Deposits with brokers” and listed in Note 13.

M) Combined Statements – The combined Statements of Assets and Liabilities, Operations and Changes in Net Assets are presented in EUR at theexchange rate at 31 January 2017. The currency translation adjustment relates to the retranslation of the opening Net Asset Values at this exchange rate.The currency exchange rates (USD to EUR) for 31 January 2017 and 31 January 2016 were 0.926355 and 0.923105, respectively. The currency exchangerates (GBP to EUR) for 31 January 2017 and 31 January 2016 were 1.165354 and 1.315332, respectively.

N) Negative Interest – Each sub-fund may be charged interest (“negative interest”) on cash balances. Any such payments are included in “Interest expenseand similar charges” in the Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets.

O) Distributions – The income allocated to Roll-up shares (A1, B1, C1, I1, N1, S1, W1, and Z1, if offered) of each sub-fund shall be included in the portionof the net assets corresponding to such shares. Each sub-fund distributes to shareholders of Income shares (A2, A4, B2, C2, I2, N2, W2, and Z2, ifoffered) substantially all of the net investment income attributable to such shares. For Gross Income shares (A3, C3, N3, and W3, if offered), the dividendis calculated at the discretion of the Board of Directors on the basis of the total investment income attributable to such shares, with relevant expenses ofthe class deducted after such distribution. See the fund’s prospectus for additional details.

P) Repurchase Agreements – Each sub-fund may enter into repurchase agreements. Each repurchase agreement is recorded at cost. For certainrepurchase agreements, collateral posted by the counterparty is held by the sub-funds’ depositary or its agent, while for others it is held with a third-partyagent, such as the Bank of New York. In the latter case, the sub-funds are exposed to additional counterparty risk with respect to such collateral due tothe possibility of insolvency of the third-party agent. Under Luxembourg regulations, the sub-funds’ depositary has established procedures to monitorcollateral held with such third-party agent on behalf of the sub-funds. Each sub-fund monitors, on a daily basis, the value of the collateral to ensure thatits value, including accrued interest, is greater than amounts owed to each sub-fund under each such repurchase agreement. Interest income earned onthe sub-fund’s investment in repurchase agreements is reflected in “Income on repurchase agreements” in the Statements of Operations and Changes inNet Assets. Details of the repurchase agreements including various counterparties and collateral amounts relating to such agreements outstanding islisted in Note 12. For the year ended 31 January 2017, there were no transaction costs related to repurchase agreements.

Q) Inflation-Adjusted Debt Securities – Certain sub-funds may invest in inflation-adjusted debt securities issued by the U.S. Treasury. Certain sub-fundsmay also invest in inflation-adjusted debt securities issued by U.S. Government agencies and instrumentalities other than the U.S. Treasury and by otherentities such as U.S. and foreign corporations and foreign governments. The principal value of these debt securities is adjusted through income accordingto changes in the Consumer Price Index or another general price or wage index. These debt securities typically pay a fixed rate of interest, but this fixedrate is applied to the inflation-adjusted principal amount. The principal paid at maturity of the debt security is typically equal to the inflation-adjustedprincipal amount, or the security’s original par value, whichever is greater. Other types of inflation-adjusted securities may use other methods to adjust forother measures of inflation.

R) Zero Strike Warrants – Each sub-fund may invest in low exercise price call warrants (zero strike warrants). Zero strike warrants are issued by banks orbroker-dealers and allow the sub-fund to gain exposure to common stocks in markets that place restrictions on direct investments by foreign investorsand may or may not be traded on an exchange. Income received from zero strike warrants is recorded as dividend income in the Statements of Operationsand Changes in Net Assets. To the extent the sub-fund invests in zero strike warrants whose returns correspond to the performance of a foreign stock,investing in zero strike warrants will involve risks similar to the risks of investing in foreign securities. Additional risks associated with zero strike warrantsinclude the potential inability of the counterparty to fulfill their obligations under the warrant or to pay the purchase price back to the sub-fund, inabilityto transfer or liquidate the warrants and potential delays or an inability to redeem before expiration under certain market conditions.

Note 3: Swing Pricing

Large transactions into or out of a sub-fund can create “dilution” of the sub-fund’s assets because the price at which an investor buys or sells shares may notentirely reflect the trading and other related costs that arise when the Investment Manager trades securities to accommodate the large inflows and outflows.Therefore, the Company has adopted procedures such that a sub-fund’s net asset value may be adjusted upward or downward (otherwise known as “swingpricing”) in order to reduce the impact of such costs to existing shareholders of that sub-fund. Under these procedures, in the usual course of business, the

MFS Meridian Funds Annual Report 2017 179

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS at 31 January 2017

adjustment will be triggered whenever the net subscriptions, exchanges, and redemptions in shares of all classes on a particular business day exceed a certainpercentage of the sub-fund’s assets as set by the Board of Directors of the Company or Management Company from time to time. Any adjustment to asub-fund’s net asset value will not exceed 2% of the net asset value of the relevant sub-fund on the relevant valuation date. In case of a large amount of netpurchases, the net asset value per share will be adjusted upward and purchasers of sub-fund shares on that valuation date will effectively contribute anadditional amount to offset the related transaction costs. Conversely, net asset value per share will be adjusted downward with a large amount of netredemptions. The adjusted net asset value will be applicable to all purchases, exchanges, or redemptions in shares of all classes on that valuation day. As asub-fund’s net purchases, redemptions, and exchanges vary from business day to business day, it is not possible to predict how frequently a sub-fund’s netasset value will be adjusted. Based on these adjustments, the volatility of a sub-fund’s net asset value may not fully reflect the true performance of the sub-fund’s underlying assets. The published/dealing NAV per share is disclosed in Statistical Information and may include a swing pricing adjustment. Thisadjustment is not recognized in either the Statements of Assets and Liabilities or the Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets.

Note 4: Securities Loaned

Goldman Sachs Agency Lending (“GSAL”), as lending agent, may loan the securities of certain sub-funds to certain qualified institutions (the “Borrowers”)approved by the fund. The loans are collateralized by high quality government debt in an amount typically at least equal to the market value of the securitiesloaned marked-to-market on a daily basis; such collateral is held at the sub-fund’s depositary. GSAL provides the applicable sub-fund with indemnificationagainst Borrower default, including failure to deliver to the sub-fund any applicable distributions with respect to securities on loan or to return to theapplicable sub-fund securities on loan in accordance with the lending agreement. On loans collateralized by high quality government debt, a fee is receivedfrom the Borrower, and is allocated between the sub-fund and the lending agent (which is not a related party to the fund, Management Company,Investment Manager or Depositary). Net income from securities lending is separately reported in the Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets.The fee allocated to the lending agent is not an expense of the sub-funds and is therefore not disclosed in the Statements of Operations and Changes in NetAssets. The dividend and interest income earned on the securities loaned is accounted for in the same manner as other dividend and interest income asdisclosed in Note 2. The market value of securities loaned and collateral outstanding at 31 January 2017 for the applicable sub-funds were as follows:

The reductions under these agreements are reported as “Expenses reimbursed by related parties” in the Statements of Operations and Changes in NetAssets. These expense cap agreements are in place until 31 January 2018, at which time the arrangements may or may not be continued. All transactionsentered into between the fund and MFS have been entered into in the ordinary course of business and on normal commercial terms. The fund has not enteredinto any transactions through a broker who is a connected person, nor has the fund entered into any transactions which are outside the ordinary course ofbusiness or not on normal commercial terms.

Note 6: Depositary Fees

Each sub-fund will pay State Street Bank Luxembourg S.C.A., the fund’s depositary and global custodian (the “Depositary”), a fee based on the monthly netasset value of the sub-funds plus a fee based upon the trading activity of each sub-fund. The Depositary and the Management Company or MFS, on behalf ofthe fund, shall determine the level of the fee from time to time in light of market rates applicable in Luxembourg. The fee is approved by the fund’s Board ofDirectors. Reasonable disbursements and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Depositary or by other banks and financial institutions to which safekeepingof assets of the sub-funds is entrusted are in addition to the Depositary’s fee. The Management Company and the fund have also entered into agreementswith State Street to serve as the Registrar, Transfer Agent, Luxembourg Paying Agent, Central Administration Agent, and Fund Accounting Agent. The fundpays State Street fees for such services at commercial rates agreed upon between the parties, together with reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. The fees paidto State Street for these services are part of each sub-fund’s operating expenses which are capped by MFS as described in Note 5.

In December 2015, the fund’s depositary, announced that it intended to reimburse its asset servicing clients for expense amounts that it billed in error duringthe period 1998 through 2015. The amount of this one-time reimbursement attributable to the fund is reflected as “Reimbursement of depositary fee” in theStatements of Operations and Changes in Net Assets.

Note 7: Commission Sharing

In allocating brokerage commissions, MFS may take into consideration the receipt of research and brokerage services, consistent with its obligation to seekbest price and execution for client transactions. Such services include advice as to the value of securities, the advisability of investing in, purchasing or sellingsecurities, and the availability of securities or purchasers or sellers of securities, furnishing analyses and reports concerning issuers, industries, securities,economic factors and trends, portfolio strategy and the performance of accounts, and effecting securities transactions and performing functions incidentalthereto (such as clearance and settlement) or required in connection therewith by applicable rules. Research services can include access to corporatemanagement, industry conferences, research field trips to visit corporate management and/or to tour manufacturing, production or distribution facilities,statistical, research and other factual information or services such as investment research reports; access to analysts; execution systems and trading analytics;reports or databases containing corporate, fundamental and technical analyses; portfolio modelling strategies; and economic research services, such as

184 MFS Meridian Funds Annual Report 2017

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS at 31 January 2017

publications, chart services and advice from economists concerning macroeconomics information, and analytical investment information about particularcorporations (collectively, “Research”). Securities may be bought or sold from time to time through such broker-dealers on behalf of a sub-fund. MFS hasentered into Client Commission Agreements with certain broker/dealers that execute, clear or settle securities transactions on behalf of clients (collectively,“Executing Brokers”) which provide for the Executing Brokers to pool a portion of the commissions paid by MFS’ clients for securities transactions (“PooledCommissions”) to research providers. Such research providers shall provide Research for the benefit of MFS. To the extent a research provider plays no role inexecuting client securities transactions, any Research prepared by that research provider would constitute third-party research. The investment managementfee, paid by the sub-funds to MFS, is not reduced as a consequence of MFS’ receipt of Research. To the extent a sub-fund’s portfolio transactions are used toobtain Research, the brokerage commissions paid by the sub-fund may exceed those that might otherwise be paid for execution only. The Research receivedmay be useful and of value to MFS in serving both a sub-fund and other clients of MFS or its affiliates; accordingly, not all of the Research provided bybrokers through whom client securities transactions are effected may be used by MFS in connection with the clients. MFS would, through the use of theResearch acquired with trade commissions or Pooled Commissions, avoid the additional expenses that would be incurred if it attempted to developcomparable information through its own staff or if it purchased such Research with its own resources. All trades with Research Firms will be effected inaccordance with MFS’ obligation to seek best execution for its client accounts.

Note 8: Taxation

The fund is subject to Luxembourg law with respect to its tax status. Under legislation and regulations currently prevailing in Luxembourg, the fund is subjectto a “taxe d’abonnement” on its net assets at an annual rate of 0.05% for Class A, Class B, Class C, Class N, and Class W and 0.01% for Class I, Class S,and Class Z.
