Fund profile
As filed in the prospectus · 2025 Q3
The iShares Russell 2500 ETF (the Fund ) seeks to track the investment results of an index composed of mid- and small-capitalization U.S. equities.
The fund seeks to track the Russell 2500 Index, which comprises approximately 2,500 small- to mid-capitalization U.S. equities, by investing a substantial portion of its assets in an underlying fund rather than holding securities directly. It uses representative sampling, meaning it may not hold all index constituents but selects securities expected to have similar aggregate investment characteristics, market capitalization weightings, and liquidity to the index. Because the fund samples rather than fully replicates the index, its returns may diverge from those of the Russell 2500 Index.
| Share class | Gross | Net |
|---|---|---|
| SMMD | 0.23% | 0.15% |
Net is what a holder pays after the adviser's contractual waiver; gross is before it. A waiver can expire.
Portfolio turnover 8.00% · as of 2025 Q3
Allocation
Asset groups · long / short shown separately, never netted · 2026 Q2
| Stocks | 58.80% |
| Other | 40.99% |
| Cash & short-term | 38.21% |
| Derivatives | 0.00% |
These positions come to 138.00% of the fund's net assets. This counts only what the fund reported holding — the holdings disclosure covers assets, not liabilities such as borrowings — so it is not expected to reconcile to 100%.
Derivatives are shown at market value, not notional exposure.
Sector allocation
The same holdings as Allocation above, grouped by market sector instead of asset type · as of 2026 Q2
| Other | 29.7% |
| Cash | 27.7% |
| Industrials | 9.6% |
| Information Technology | 6.2% |
| 10 smaller | 26.8% |
Government, Securitized and Cash are non-corporate buckets; International is foreign holdings we don’t sector-classify, and Other is the residual (held funds, unresolved names).
Portfolio growth profile
How much of the fund’s stock holdings are in fast-growing companies · as of 2026 Q2
Share of the fund’s equity (by value) in companies whose trailing five-year revenue — or net-income — growth ranks in the top 25% of U.S. public companies. Foreign and newly-listed holdings are excluded, so the figure covers only part of the book. From SEC filings — not investment advice. How we measure this.

Return profile
Total return as filed — price change plus distributions reinvested · trailing figures to Apr 2026
May 2026 and Jun 2026 have been filed since the trailing figures were struck, so they are not in the table above or the curve — every figure here shares one cut-off, which is what makes them comparable with other funds.
