How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

The broad U.S. equity market was volatile amid tariff and trade uncertainty, mixed economic and labor market data, concern over elevated valuations and a record government shutdown but generated strong positive returns for the Period overall. The market's advance was supported by easing trade tensions, robust corporate earnings results, better than consensus anticipated inflation data and the Federal Reserve's commencement of a monetary easing cycle. Optimism about AI growth momentum was scrutinized but rather persistent, and consumer spending remained resilient, underscoring the potential longevity of both themes.

This actively managed Fund invests in a portfolio of stocks comprised significantly of those included in the Fund's benchmark index-the NASDAQ-100 Index (Index)-and uses a dynamic option overwrite strategy as it seeks to deliver current income while maintaining prospects for capital appreciation.

Top Contributors from Performance

  • Exposures to Google parent company Alphabet, computer graphics processors and related software manufacturer NVIDIA and semiconductor and infrastructure software provider Broadcom contributed most positively to the Fund's returns during the Period (approximately 7.0%, 9.0% and 3.3% of Fund net assets as of December 31, 2025, respectively).

  • At a sector level, information technology, communication services and consumer discretionary contributed most positively to the Fund's absolute performance during the Period.

Top Detractors from Performance

  • The Fund's short call option overlay strategy detracted from total returns, partially driving the Fund to underperform the Index.

  • Exposures to Bitcoin treasury and enterprise analytics software company Strategy, software company Adobe and self-service cloud-based ad-buying platform The Trade Desk detracted most from the Fund's returns during the Period (approximately 0.2%, 0.8 and 0.0% of Fund net assets as of December 31, 2025, respectively).

  • The industrials, financials and consumer staples sectors detracted most from the Fund's absolute performance during the Period.

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2025

1.  ORGANIZATION

Goldman Sachs ETF Trust (the "Trust") is an open-endmanagement investment company, registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), consisting of multiple series. The Trust was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on December 16, 2009. The following table lists those series of the Trust that are included in this report (collectively, the "Funds" or individually a "Fund") along with their respective diversification status under the Act:

Fund Diversified/ Non-Diversified
Goldman Sachs Nasdaq-100Premium Income ETF Non-Diversified
Goldman Sachs S&P 500 Premium Income ETF Diversified

The investment objective of each Fund is to seek current income while maintaining prospects for capital appreciation.

Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. ("GSAM"), an affiliate of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC ("Goldman Sachs"), serves as investment adviser to the Funds pursuant to a management agreement (the "Agreement") with the Trust. Each Fund is an exchange-traded fund ("ETF"). Shares of the Funds are listed and traded on the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC ("NASDAQ"). Market prices for the Funds' shares may be different from their net asset value ("NAV"). The Funds issue and redeem shares at their respective NAV only in blocks of a specified number of shares, or multiples thereof, referred to as "Creation Units." Creation Units are issued and redeemed generally for a designated portfolio of securities (including any portion of such securities for which cash may be substituted) and a specified amount of cash. Shares generally trade in the secondary market in quantities less than a Creation Unit at market prices that change throughout the day. Only those that have entered into an authorized participant agreement with ALPS Distributors, Inc. (the "Distributor") may do business directly with the Funds.

2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and require management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions. Each Fund is an investment company under GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies.

A.  Investment Valuation- The Funds' valuation policy is to value investments at fair value.

B.  Investment Income and Investments- Investment income includes interest income, dividend income, and securities lending income, if any. Interest income is accrued daily and adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Dividend income is recognized on ex-dividenddate or, for certain foreign securities, as soon as such information is obtained subsequent to the ex-dividenddate. Non-cashdividends, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Investment transactions are reflected on trade date. Realized gains and losses are calculated using identified cost. Investment transactions are recorded on the following business day for daily NAV calculations. Investment income is recorded net of any foreign withholding taxes, less any amounts reclaimable. The Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. These reclaims, if any, are recorded when the amount is known and there are no significant uncertainties on collectability. Such amounts recovered, if any, are reflected as other income in the Statements of Operations. Any foreign capital gains tax is accrued daily based upon net unrealized gains, and is payable upon sale of such investments. Distributions received from the Funds' investments in U.S. real estate investment trusts ("REITs") may be characterized as ordinary income, net capital gain and/or a return of capital. A return of capital is recorded by the Funds as a reduction to the cost basis of the REIT.

For derivative contracts, unrealized gains and losses are recorded daily and become realized gains and losses upon disposition or termination of the contract.

18

GOLDMAN SACHS PREMIUM INCOME ETFS

2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

C.  Expenses- Expenses incurred directly by a Fund are charged to the Fund, and certain expenses incurred by the Trust are allocated across the applicable Funds on a straight-line and/or pro-ratabasis, depending upon the nature of the expenses, and are accrued daily.

D.  Federal Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders- It is each Fund's policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute each year substantially all of its investment company taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders. Accordingly, each Fund is not required to make any provisions for the payment of federal income tax. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividenddate. For the Funds, income distributions, if any, are normally declared and paid monthly. Capital gains distributions, if any, are normally declared and paid annually. Because the Fund seeks to provide monthly distributions at a relatively stable rate, shareholders may receive distributions which constitute a return of capital for tax purposes. A return of capital is not taxable, but it reduces the shareholder's basis in its shares, which reduces the loss (or increases the gain) on a subsequent taxable disposition by such shareholder of the shares.

Net capital losses, if any, are carried forward to future fiscal years and may be used to the extent allowed by the Code to offset any future capital gains. Losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses. Utilization of capital loss carryforwards will reduce the requirement of future capital gains distributions.

The characterization of distributions to shareholders for financial reporting purposes is determined in accordance with federal income tax rules, which may differ from GAAP. The source of each Fund's distributions may be shown in the accompanying financial statements as either from distributable earnings or capital. Certain components of the Funds' net assets on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities reflect permanent GAAP/tax differences based on the appropriate tax character.

E.  Foreign Currency Translation- The accounting records and reporting currency of a Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using the current exchange rates at the close of each business day. The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is included within net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments. Changes in the value of other assets and liabilities as a result of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates are included in the Statements of Operations within net change in unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency translations. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars on the date the transaction occurred, the effects of which are included within net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions.

F.  Segment Reporting- The Funds follow Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Update 2023-07,Segment Reporting (Topic 280)-Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. Each Fund operates in one segment. The segment derives its revenues from Fund investments made in accordance with the defined investment strategy of the Fund, as prescribed in the Funds' prospectus. The Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") is the portfolio management team within the Funds' Investment Adviser. The CODM monitors and actively manages the operating results of each Fund. The financial information the CODM leverages to assess the segment's performance and to make decisions for the Funds' single segment, is consistent with that presented within the Funds' financial statements.

3.  INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

GAAP defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., the exit price); the Funds' policy is to use the market approach. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls shall be determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The levels used for classifying investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these investments. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

19

GOLDMAN SACHS PREMIUM INCOME ETFS

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

December 31, 2025

3.  INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2 - Quoted prices in markets that are not active or financial instruments for which significant inputs are observable (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, foreign exchange rates, volatility and credit spreads), either directly or indirectly;

Level 3 - Prices or valuations that require significant unobservable inputs (including GSAM's assumptions in determining fair value measurement).

The Board of Trustees ("Trustees") has approved valuation procedures that govern the valuation of the portfolio investments held by the Funds ("Valuation Procedures"), including investments for which market quotations are not readily available. With respect to the Funds' investments that do not have readily available market quotations, the Trustees have designated GSAM as the valuation designee to perform fair valuations pursuant to Rule 2a-5under the Act (the "Valuation Designee"). GSAM has day-to-dayresponsibility for implementing and maintaining internal controls and procedures related to the valuation of the Funds' investments. To assess the continuing appropriateness of pricing sources and methodologies, GSAM regularly performs price verification procedures and issues challenges as necessary to third party pricing vendors or brokers, and any differences are reviewed in accordance with the Valuation Procedures.

A.  Level 1 and Level 2 Fair Value Investments- The valuation techniques and significant inputs used in determining the fair values for investments classified as Level 1 and Level 2 are as follows:

Equity Securities- Equity securities traded on a United States ("U.S.") securities exchange or the NASDAQ system, or those located on certain foreign exchanges, including but not limited to the Americas, are valued daily at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded. If there is no sale or official closing price or such price is believed by GSAM to not represent fair value, equity securities will be valued at the valid closing bid price for long positions and at the valid closing ask price for short positions (i.e. where there is sufficient volume, during normal exchange trading hours). If no valid bid/ask price is available, the equity security will be valued pursuant to the Valuation Procedures and consistent with applicable regulatory guidance. To the extent these investments are actively traded, they are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise they are generally classified as Level 2. Certain equity securities containing unique attributes may be classified as Level 2.

Unlisted equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last sale price on the valuation date, or if no sale occurs, at the last bid price for long positions or the last ask price for short positions, and are generally classified as Level 2.

Underlying Funds (including Money Market Funds)- Underlying funds ("Underlying Funds") include exchange-traded funds ("ETFs") and other investment companies. Investments in the Underlying Funds (except ETFs) are valued at the NAV per share on the day of valuation. ETFs are valued daily at the last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which the investment is traded. Because the Funds invest in Underlying Funds that fluctuate in value, the Funds' shares will correspondingly fluctuate in value. Underlying Funds are generally classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. To the extent that underlying ETFs are actively traded, they are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise they are generally classified as Level 2. For information regarding an Underlying Fund's accounting policies and investment holdings, please see the Underlying Fund's financial statements at SEC.gov.

Derivative Contracts- A derivative is an instrument whose value is derived from underlying assets, indices, reference rates or a combination of these factors. A Fund enters into derivative transactions to hedge against changes in interest rates, securities prices, and/or currency exchange rates, to increase total return, or to gain access to certain markets or attain exposure to other underliers. For financial reporting purposes, cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of a Fund and cash collateral received, if any, is reported separately on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as either due to broker/receivable for collateral on certain derivative contracts. Non-cashcollateral pledged by a Fund, if any, is noted in the Schedules of Investments.

Exchange-traded derivatives, including futures and options contracts, are generally valued at the last sale or settlement price on the exchange where they are principally traded. Exchange-traded options without settlement prices are generally valued at the last bid price for long positions and the last ask price for short positions on the exchange where they are principally traded. Exchange-traded derivatives typically fall within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Over-the-counter("OTC") and centrally cleared derivatives

are valued using market transactions and other market evidence, including market-based inputs to models, calibration to market-clearing transactions, broker or dealer quotations, or other alternative pricing sources. Where models are used, the selection of a particular model to value OTC and centrally cleared derivatives depends upon the contractual terms of, and specific risks inherent in, the instrument, as well as the availability of pricing information in the market. Valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, credit curves, measures of volatility, voluntary and involuntary prepayment rates, loss severity rates and correlations of such inputs. For OTC and centrally cleared derivatives that trade in liquid markets, model inputs can generally be verified and model selection does not involve significant management judgment. OTC and centrally cleared derivatives are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy when significant inputs are corroborated by market evidence.

i. Options- When a Fund writes call or put options, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and is subsequently marked-to-marketto reflect the current value of the option written. Swaptions are options on swap contracts.

Upon the purchase of a call option or a put option by a Fund, the premium paid is recorded as an investment and subsequently marked-to-marketto reflect the current value of the option. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms.

B.  Level 3 Fair Value Investments - To the extent that significant inputs to valuation models and other alternative pricing sources are unobservable, or if quotations are not readily available, or if GSAM believes that such quotations do not accurately reflect fair value, the fair value of a Fund's investments may be determined under the Valuation Procedures. GSAM, consistent with its procedures and applicable regulatory guidance, may make an adjustment to the most recent valuation prices of either domestic or foreign securities in light of significant events to reflect what it believes to be the fair value of the securities at the time of determining a Fund's NAV. To the extent investments are valued using single source broker quotations obtained directly from the broker or passed through from third party pricing vendors, such investments are classified as Level 3 investments.

The following tables set forth, by certain risk types, the gross value of derivative contracts (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) as of December 31, 2025. These instruments were used as part of the Funds' investment strategies and to obtain and/or manage exposure related to the risks below. The values in the tables below exclude the effects of cash collateral received or posted pursuant to these derivative contracts, and therefore are not representative of the Funds' net exposure.

5. AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS

A. Management Agreement- Under the Agreement, GSAM manages the Funds, subject to the general supervision of the Trustees.

As compensation for the services rendered pursuant to the Agreement, the assumption of the expenses related thereto and administration of the Funds' business affairs, including providing facilities, GSAM is entitled to a management fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, equal to an annual percentage rate of each Fund's average daily net assets.

The Funds operate under a unitary management fee structure. Under the unitary fee structure, GSAM is responsible for paying substantially all the expenses of each Fund, excluding payments under a Fund's 12b-1plan (if any), interest expenses, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, brokerage fees, costs of holding shareholder meetings, litigation, indemnification and extraordinary expenses. As the Funds directly pay fees and expenses of the independent Trustees, the management fee collected by GSAM will be reduced by an amount equal to the fees and expenses paid by the Funds to the independent Trustees.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 contractual and effective net unitary management fees with GSAM for each Fund were at the following rates:

5. AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS (continued)

GSAM has agreed to waive a portion of its management fee in order to achieve an effective net management fee rate of 0.29% as an annual percentage rate of average daily net assets of each Fund. These arrangements will remain in effect through at least April 30, 2026, and prior to such date GSAM may not terminate the arrangements without the approval of the Board of Trustees. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, GSAM waived $698,346 and $720,645 of the Funds' management fees for Nasdaq-100Premium Income ETF and S&P 500 Premium Income ETF, respectively.

The Funds invest in Institutional Shares of the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Obligations Fund, which is an affiliated Underlying Fund. GSAM has agreed to waive a portion of its management fee payable by the Funds in an amount equal to the management fee it earns as an investment adviser to the affiliated Underlying Fund in which the Funds invest, except those management fees it earns from the Funds' investments of cash collateral received in connection with securities lending transactions in the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Obligations Fund. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, GSAM waived $5,792 and $5,710 of the Funds' management fees for Nasdaq-100Premium Income ETF and S&P 500 Premium Income ETF, respectively.

B.  Other Transactions with Affiliates- For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, Goldman Sachs did not earn any brokerage commissions from portfolio transactions on behalf of the Funds.

6. CREATION AND REDEMPTION OF CREATION UNITS

The Trust issues and redeems shares of the Funds only in Creation Units on a continuous basis through the Distributor, without an initial sales load, at NAV next determined after receipt, on any Business Day (as defined in the Statement of Additional Information), of an order in proper form. Shares of the Funds may only be purchased or redeemed by certain financial institutions (each an "Authorized Participant"). An Authorized Participant is either (1) a "Participating Party" or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation; or (2) a Depository Trust Company participant; which, in either case, must have executed an agreement with the Distributor. Retail investors will typically not qualify as an Authorized Participant or have the resources to buy and sell whole Creation Units. Therefore, they will be unable to purchase or redeem the shares directly from the Funds. Rather, most retail investors will purchase shares in the secondary market at market prices with the assistance of a broker and may be subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees. Fixed creation and redemption transaction fees are imposed in connection with creations and redemptions.

Authorized Participants transacting in Creation Units for cash may also pay a variable charge to compensate the relevant fund for certain transaction costs (e.g. taxes on currency or other financial transactions, and brokerage costs) and market impact expenses

8. SECURITIES LENDING

The Funds may lend their securities through a securities lending agent, the Bank of New York ("BNY"), to certain qualified borrowers. In accordance with the Funds' securities lending procedures, the Funds receive cash collateral at least equal to the market value of the securities on loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Funds, at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded, and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Funds on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Funds may experience delay in the recovery of their securities or incur a loss should the borrower of the securities breach its agreement with the Funds or become insolvent at a time when the collateral is insufficient to cover the cost of repurchasing securities on loan. Dividend income received from securities on loan may not be subject to withholding taxes and therefore withholding taxes paid may differ from the amounts listed in the Statements of Operations. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and as such 1) the remaining contractual maturities of the outstanding securities lending transactions are considered to be overnight and continuous and 2) the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within the standard time period for settlement of securities transactions. The Funds invest the cash collateral received in connection with securities lending transactions in the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund ("Government Money Market Fund"), an affiliated series of the Goldman Sachs Trust. The Government Money Market Fund is registered under the Act as an open end investment company, is subject to Rule 2a-7under the Act, and is managed by GSAM, for which GSAM may receive a management fee of up to 0.16% on an annualized basis of the average daily net assets of the Government Money Market Fund.

In the event of a default by a borrower with respect to any loan, BNY may exercise any and all remedies provided under the applicable borrower agreement to make the Funds whole. These remedies include purchasing replacement securities by applying the collateral held from the defaulting broker against the purchase cost of the replacement securities. If BNY is unable to purchase replacement securities, BNY will indemnify the Funds by paying the Funds an amount equal to the market value of the securities loaned minus the value of cash collateral received from the borrower for the loan, subject to an exclusion for any shortfalls resulting from a loss of value in such cash collateral due to reinvestment risk. The Funds' master netting agreements with certain borrowers provide the right, in the event of a default (including bankruptcy or insolvency), for the non-defaultingparty to liquidate the collateral and calculate net exposure to the defaulting party or request additional collateral. However, in the event of a default by a borrower, a resolution authority could determine that such rights are not enforceable due to the restrictions or prohibitions against the right of set-offthat may be imposed in accordance with a particular jurisdiction's bankruptcy or insolvency laws. The Funds' loaned securities were all subject to enforceable Securities Lending Agreements, and the value of the collateral was at least equal to the value of the cash received. The amounts of the Funds' overnight and continuous agreements, which represent the gross amounts of recognized liabilities for securities lending transactions outstanding as of December 31, 2025, are disclosed as "Payable upon return of securities loaned" on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, where applicable. The Funds did not have securities on loan as of December 31, 2025.

Both the Funds and BNY received compensation relating to the lending of the Funds' securities. The amounts earned, if any, by the Funds for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 are reported under Investment Income on the Statements of Operations.

9. TAX INFORMATION (continued)

GSAM has reviewed the Funds' tax positions for all open tax years (the current year, as applicable) and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Funds' financial statements. Such open tax years remain subject to examination and adjustment by tax authorities.

10. OTHER RISKS

The Funds' risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

Industry Concentration Risk- Concentrating Fund investments in a limited number of issuers conducting business in the same industry or group of industries will subject the Fund to a greater risk of loss as a result of adverse economic, business, political, environmental or other developments than if its investments were diversified across different industries.

Large Shareholder Transaction Risk- Certain shareholders, including other funds advised by the Investment Adviser, may from time to time own a substantial amount of the Fund's Shares. In addition, a third party investor, the Investment Adviser or an affiliate of the Investment Adviser, an authorized participant, a lead market maker, or another entity (i.e., a seed investor) may invest in the Fund and hold its investment solely to facilitate commencement of the Fund or to facilitate the Fund's achieving a specified size or scale. Any such investment may be held for a limited period of time. There can be no assurance that any large shareholder would not redeem its investment, that the size of the Fund would be maintained at such levels or that the Fund would continue to meet applicable listing requirements. Redemptions by large shareholders could have a significant negative impact on the Fund, including on the Fund's liquidity. In addition, transactions by large shareholders may account for a large percentage of the trading volume on NASDAQ and may, therefore, have a material upward or downward effect on the market price of the Shares.

Market Risk- The value of the securities in which the Fund invests may go up or down in response to the prospects of individual companies, particular sectors, governments or countries and/or general economic conditions throughout the world due to increasingly interconnected global economies and financial markets. Events such as war, military conflict, geopolitical disputes, acts of terrorism, social or political unrest, natural disasters, recessions, inflation, rapid interest rate changes, supply chain disruptions, tariffs and other restrictions on trade, sanctions, or the spread of infectious illness or other public health threats, or the threat or potential of one or more such events and developments, could also significantly impact the Fund and its investments.

Market Trading Risk- Each Fund faces numerous market trading risks, including disruptions to creations and redemptions, the existence of extreme market volatility or potential lack of an active trading market for Shares. If a shareholder purchases Shares at a time when the market price is at a premium to the NAV or sells Shares at a time when the market price is at a discount to the NAV, the shareholder may pay more for, or receive less than, the underlying value of the Shares, respectively. The Investment Adviser cannot predict whether Shares will trade below, at or above their NAV. Price differences may be due, in large part, to the fact that supply and demand forces at work in the secondary trading market for Shares will be closely related to, but not identical to, the same forces influencing the prices of the securities of a Fund's Index trading individually or in the aggregate at any point in time.

Non-DiversificationRisk- The Nasdaq-100Premium Income ETF is non-diversified,meaning that it is permitted to invest a larger percentage of its assets in one or more issuers or in fewer issuers than diversified funds. Thus, the Fund may be more susceptible to adverse developments affecting any single issuer held in its portfolio, and may be more susceptible to greater losses because of these developments.

Option Writing Risk- Writing (selling) options may limit the opportunity to profit from an increase or decrease in the market value of a reference security in exchange for up-frontcash (the premium) at the time of selling the option. In a sharp rising or falling market, the Fund could significantly underperform the market or other portfolios without an option writing strategy. The Fund could also experience a sudden, significant permanent loss due to dramatic movements in the market value of reference security, which may far exceed the premiums received for writing the option. Such significant losses could cause significant deteriorations in the Fund's NAV. Furthermore, the premium received from the Fund's option writing strategies may not fully protect it against market movements because the Fund will continue to bear the risk of movements in the value of its portfolio investments.

28

GOLDMAN SACHS PREMIUM INCOME ETFS

10. OTHER RISKS (continued)

Tracking Error/Index Risk- Tracking error is the divergence of the Fund's performance (without regard to the options overwrite strategy) from that of the benchmark. The performance of the Fund's equity investments may diverge from that of the benchmark for a number of reasons. Tracking error may occur because of transaction costs, the Fund's holding of cash, differences in accrual of dividends, changes to the benchmark or the need to meet new or existing regulatory requirements. Unlike the Fund, the returns of the benchmark are not reduced by investment and other operating expenses, including the trading costs associated with implementing changes to its portfolio of investments. Tracking error risk may be heightened during times of market volatility or other unusual market conditions. The Fund will be negatively affected by general declines in the securities and asset classes represented in the benchmark. In addition, unless a specific security is removed from the benchmark, the Fund generally would not sell a security because the security's issuer was in financial trouble.

11. INDEMNIFICATIONS

Under the Trust's organizational documents, its Trustees, officers, employees and agents are indemnified, to the extent permitted by the Act and state law, against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, GSAM believes the risk of loss under these arrangements to be remote.

12. OTHER MATTERS

Effective after the close of business on April 30, 2025, the Goldman Sachs Nasdaq-100Core Premium Income ETF and Goldman Sachs S&P 500 Core Premium Income ETF were renamed the Goldman Sachs Nasdaq-100Premium Income ETF and Goldman Sachs S&P 500 Premium Income ETF, respectively.

13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent events have been evaluated through the date of issuance, and GSAM has concluded that there is no impact requiring adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Goldman Sachs Nasdaq-100Premium Income ETF and Goldman Sachs S&P 500 Premium Income ETF (two of the funds constituting Goldman Sachs ETF Trust, hereafter collectively referred to as the "Funds") as of December 31, 2025, the related statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025, the statements of changes in net assets for the year ended December 31, 2025 and for the periods September 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024 and October 24, 2023 (commencement of operations) through August 31, 2024, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for the year ended December 31, 2025 and for the periods September 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024 and October 24, 2023 (commencement of operations) through August 31, 2024 (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of December 31, 2025, the results of each of their operations for the year ended December 31, 2025, the changes in each of their net assets for the year ended December 31, 2025 and for the periods September 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024 and October 24, 2023 (commencement of operations) through August 31, 2024, and each of the financial highlights for the year ended December 31, 2025 and for each of the periods September 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024 and October 24, 2023 (commencement of operations) through August 31, 2024 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinions

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds' financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2025 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
