    DEAR SHAREHOLDER:I am pleased to present the ProShares Trust Semiannual Reportfor the six months ended November30, 2018.

    Mixed Period for Equities Marked by Significant Volatility

    Despite looming concerns such as the ongoing trade war and con-tentious mid-term elections, U.S. equities had a strong third quarterstart to the reporting period; in fact, it was one of the S&P500sbest in years. However, broad market selloffs and the return of sig-nificant volatility, including the years second market correction inNovember, have erased many of the U.S. markets year-to-date gains.U.S. equities turned in mixed and not particularly strong resultsthat favored large-cap stocks over mid- or small-cap stocks for thesix-month period. The Dow and the S&P500 were up 5.8% and3.0%, respectively. The S&P MidCap 400 , on the other hand, de-clined -2.7%, and the small-caps of the Russell2000 Index fell -5.6%.Economic conditions were generally strong during the period withperhaps some slowing, according to the most recent data. Real GDPincreased at an annual rate of 3.5% during the third quarter of 2018,which was down from 4.2% in the second calendar quarter. Analystspreliminary expectations reflect continuing economic expansionfor the fourth quarter 2018, but likely at a slower rate as a result ofmarket conditions and fallout from ongoing trade disputes.

    Six of the 10 sectors included in the Dow Jones U.S. Industry In-dices gained during the six-month period. Health care, telecommu-nications and utilities were the top three sector performers,gaining 15.1%, 13.9% and 10.4%, respectively. Of the bottom threesectors, technology declined -3.0% for the period, basic materialsdropped -8.1% and oil& gas fell -12.5%.

    International equities suffered significant pressures during the period tariffs, interest rates, Brexit which led to general poorresults in global markets. The MSCI EAFE Index, which tracks de-veloped markets outside North America, fell -8.0%, while European-specific stocks returned an even cooler -8.4%, as measured by theMSCI Europe Index. Asian and emerging markets were downsharply for the period. The FTSE China 50 Index dropped -9.6%, andthe MSCI Japan Index was off -7.1%. Emerging markets, which wereup to close the Indexs twelve-month reporting period in June, turneddecisively down to fall -9.9% during this six-month period, accordingto the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. The U.S. dollar was strong, rising 3.2%, as measured by the Bloomberg Dollar Index Spot.

    Bond Markets See Poor Returns Amid Rate Hikes

    Presented with a mix of data, some slowing in GDP, mixed marketconditions and trade concerns, the Federal Reserve hiked its FedFunds overnight lending rate twice during the period, the second andthird increases of the year, with a fourth expected in December. Bondmarket returns were weak overall in the rising rate environment. Cor-porate high yield credit returns eked out a gain of 0.8%, as measuredby the Markit iBoxx $ Liquid High Yield Index. Meanwhile, its invest-ment grade partner, the Markit iBoxx $ Liquid Investment GradeIndex declined -1.8%. Long-dated Treasury returns were down -4.7%,according to the Ryan Labs Treasury 30 Year Index, and the Ryan LabsTreasury 10 Year Index fell -0.3%. The Barclays U.S. Aggregate BondIndex, representing the broad U.S. bond market, was also down-0.3%.

    ProShares Adds Assets and Expands Fund Lineup

    ProShares assets under management rose during the six-monthperiod, increasing by nearly three-quarters of a billion dollars to$28.3 billion. We also added two new thematic funds, ETFs designedto identify and invest in transformative trends driving changes insociety, to the ProShares lineup. In July, we launched ONLN, thethird fund in our Retail Disruption suite of ETFs. ONLNs invest-ment strategy pinpoints retailers that principally sell online orthrough other non-store channels, such as mobile or app purchases.In November, ProShares launched PAWZ, the first ETF focused onthe pet care industry. PAWZ invests in a range of companies thatpotentially stand to benefit from the proliferation of pet ownership,and the emerging trends affecting how we care for our pets.

    Thank you for investing in ProShares. We appreciate your contin-ued trust and confidence.

    Sincerely,

    Michael L. SapirChairman of the Board of Trustees
