AAdjusted to reflect current fees.
BFidelity Management & Research Company LLC (FMR) has contractually agreed to reimburse the fund to the extent that total operating expenses (excluding interest, certain taxes, fees and expenses of the Independent Trustees, proxy and shareholder meeting expenses, extraordinary expenses, and acquired fund fees and expenses (including fees and expenses associated with a wholly owned subsidiary), if any, as well as non-operating expenses such as brokerage commissions and fees and expenses associated with the fund's securities lending program, if applicable), as a percentage of its average net assets, exceed 0.60% (the Expense Cap). If at any time during the current fiscal year expenses for the fund fall below the Expense Cap, FMR reserves the right to recoup through the end of the fiscal year any expenses that were reimbursed during the current fiscal year up to, but not in excess of, the Expense Cap. This arrangement will remain in effect through September 30, 2025. FMR may not terminate this arrangement before the expiration date without the approval of the Board of Trustees and may extend it in its discretion after that date.
This example helps compare the cost of investing in the fund with the cost of investing in other funds.
Let's say, hypothetically, that the annual return for shares of the fund is 5% and that the fees and the annual operating expenses for shares of the fund are exactly as described in the fee table. This example illustrates the effect of fees and expenses, but is not meant to suggest actual or expected fees and expenses or returns, all of which may vary. For every $10,000 you invested, here's how much you would pay in total expenses if you sell all of your shares at the end of each time period indicated:

Portfolio Turnover
 
The fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual operating expenses or in the example, affect the fund's performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the fund's portfolio turnover rate was 48% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies
  • Normally investing primarily in equity securities.
  • Normally investing at least 80% of assets in securities of companies that Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (FMR) (the Adviser) believes have proven or improving sustainability practices based on an evaluation of such companies' individual environmental, social and governance (ESG) profile. In general, the Adviser favors those companies it believes are well positioned to further improve their demonstrated ESG profile in the future. 
  • Using the Adviser's proprietary ESG ratings process to evaluate the current state of an issuer's sustainability practices using a data-driven framework that includes both proprietary and third-party data, and also provide a qualitative forward-looking assessment of an issuer's sustainability outlook provided by the Adviser's fundamental research analysts and ESG team.
  • The Adviser's ESG ratings of issuers are derived from multiple factors, including an issuer's environmental profile, which may include, but is not limited to, carbon and toxic emissions, water management, waste management, vulnerability to the physical impacts of climate change, and research and investment into products, services, and energies that reduce emissions and/or provide opportunities to transition to less carbon-intensive products or operations. An assessment of an issuer's social profile includes, but is not limited to, its approach to diversity and inclusion, human capital management, data privacy, product safety and human rights. With respect to governance, the independence and diversity of an issuer's board, its compensation practices and board oversight of critical ESG issues are considered as part of the assessment. These factors are weighted based on how material the Adviser believes each factor is to an issuer's financial outlook, and not all factors may be applicable to all issuers.
  • Investing in issuers that the Adviser believes deliver tangible environmental or social impact through core business operations. An assessment of the impact characteristics of an issuer may involve corporate engagement and an analysis of issuer alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals using qualitative analysis as well as proprietary or third-party data. For example, issuers that provide access to clean water, education, or clean energy through their core business may be considered to deliver tangible impact.
  • Investing in securities of domestic and foreign issuers.
  • In addition to the ESG ratings process, using fundamental analysis of factors such as each issuer's financial condition and industry position, as well as market and economic conditions, to select investments.
  • Employing sustainable investing exclusion criteria to avoid investments in issuers that are directly engaged in, and/or derive significant revenue from, certain industries. Please see "Fund Basics - Investment Details - Sustainable Investing Exclusions" for additional information.
Reorganization. The Board of Trustees of Fidelity Summer Street Trust has unanimously approved an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization ("Agreement") between Fidelity® SAI Sustainable Future Fund and Fidelity® SAI Sustainable U.S. Equity Fund.
Each fund seeks long-term growth of capital.
As a result of the proposed Reorganization, shareholders of Fidelity® SAI Sustainable Future Fund would receive shares of Fidelity® SAI Sustainable U.S. Equity Fund.
The Agreement provides for the transfer of all of the assets of Fidelity® SAI Sustainable Future Fund in exchange for shares of Fidelity® SAI Sustainable U.S. Equity Fund equal in value to the net assets of Fidelity® SAI Sustainable Future Fund and the assumption by Fidelity® SAI Sustainable U.S. Equity Fund of all of the liabilities of Fidelity® SAI Sustainable Future Fund. After the exchange, Fidelity® SAI Sustainable Future Fund will distribute Fidelity® SAI Sustainable U.S. Equity Fund shares to its shareholders pro rata, in liquidation of Fidelity® SAI Sustainable Future Fund. As a result, shareholders of Fidelity® SAI Sustainable Future Fund will become shareholders of Fidelity® SAI Sustainable U.S. Equity Fund (these transactions are collectively referred to as the "Reorganization").
Shareholders of Fidelity® SAI Sustainable Future Fund will receive a combined information statement and prospectus containing more information with respect to the Reorganization, and a summary of the Board's considerations in approving the Agreement.
The Reorganization, which does not require shareholder approval, is expected to take place on or about November 15, 2024. The Reorganization is expected to be a tax-free transaction. This means that neither Fidelity® SAI Sustainable Future Fund nor its shareholders will recognize any gain or loss as a direct result of the Reorganization.
In connection with the Reorganization, an information statement/prospectus that will be included in a registration statement on Form N-14 will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. After the registration statement is filed with the SEC, it may be amended or withdrawn and the information statement/prospectus will not be distributed to shareholders of Fidelity® SAI Sustainable Future Fund unless and until the registration statement becomes effective. Shareholders should read the information statement/prospectus, which contains important information about the Reorganization, when it becomes available. For a free copy of the information statement/prospectus, please contact Fidelity at 1-800-544-3455. The information statement/prospectus will also be available on the Securities and Exchange Commission's website (www.sec.gov).

Principal Investment Risks
  • Stock Market Volatility.
Stock markets are volatile and can decline significantly in response to adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market, or economic developments. Different parts of the market, including different market sectors, and different types of securities can react differently to these developments.
  • Sustainability Risk.
Application of Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC's (FMR) (the Adviser) ESG ratings process and/or its sustainable investing exclusion criteria may affect the fund's exposure to certain issuers, sectors, regions, and countries and may affect the fund's performance depending on whether certain investments are in or out of favor. The criteria related to the fund's ESG ratings process and/or adherence to its sustainable investing exclusion criteria may result in the fund forgoing opportunities to buy certain securities when it might otherwise be advantageous to do so, or selling securities for ESG reasons when it might be otherwise disadvantageous for it to do so. As a result, the fund's performance may at times be better or worse than the performance of funds that do not use ESG or sustainability criteria. There are significant differences in interpretations of what it means for an issuer to have positive ESG factors. While the Adviser believes its definitions are reasonable, the portfolio decisions it makes may differ with other investors' or advisers' views. When evaluating an issuer, the Adviser is dependent on information or data obtained through voluntary or third-party reporting that may be incomplete, inaccurate, or unavailable, which could cause the Adviser to incorrectly assess an issuer's business practices.
  • Foreign Exposure.
Foreign markets can be more volatile than the U.S. market due to increased risks of adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market, or economic developments and can perform differently from the U.S. market.
  • Issuer-Specific Changes.
The value of an individual security or particular type of security can be more volatile than, and can perform differently from, the market as a whole.
  • Small- and Mid-Cap Investing.
The value of securities of small to medium size, less well-known issuers can perform differently from the market as a whole and other types of stocks and can be more volatile than that of larger issuers.
  • Management Risk.
The Adviser's application of the fund's strategy criteria may not achieve its intended results. The fund could underperform in comparison to other funds with a similar benchmark or similar objectives and investment strategies.
An investment in the fund is not a deposit of a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. You could lose money by investing in the fund.
