# This contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) applies to shares purchased without an initial sales charge and redeemed within 18 months of purchase.

1 Massachusetts Financial Services Company (MFS) has agreed in writing to waive at least 0.01% of the fund's management fee as part of an agreement pursuant to which MFS has agreed to reduce its management fee by a specified amount if certain MFS mutual fund assets exceed thresholds agreed to by MFS and the fund's Board of Trustees. The agreement to waive at least 0.01% of the management fee will continue until modified by the fund's Board of Trustees, but such agreement will continue until at least December 31, 2026.

#### Example
This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.

The example assumes that: you invest $10,000 in the fund for the time periods indicated and you redeem your shares at the end of the time periods (unless otherwise indicated); your investment has a 5% return each year; and the fund's operating expenses remain the same.

Although your actual costs will likely be higher or lower, under these assumptions your costs would be:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **1 YEAR** | **3 YEARS** | **5 YEARS** | **10 YEARS** |
| **Class A Shares** | $673  | $883  | $1110  | $1761  |
| **Class B Shares assuming<sup>1</sup>** |  |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;redemption at end of period | $580  | $859  | $1164  | $1896  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;no redemption at end of period | $180  | $559  | $964  | $1896  |
| **Class C Shares assuming<sup>1</sup>** |  |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;redemption at end of period | $280  | $559  | $964  | $1896  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;no redemption at end of period | $180  | $559  | $964  | $1896  |
| **Class I Shares** | $79  | $248  | $432  | $965  |
| **Class R1 Shares** | $180  | $559  | $964  | $2094  |
| **Class R2 Shares** | $129  | $405  | $701  | $1544  |
| **Class R3 Shares** | $104  | $327  | $568  | $1259  |
| **Class R4 Shares** | $79  | $248  | $432  | $965  |
| **Class R6 Shares** | $66  | $210  | $367  | $822  |

1 Shares automatically convert to Class A shares approximately eight years after purchase; therefore, the expense examples reflect Class A share expenses after eight years.

#### 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 shares are held in a taxable account. These transaction costs, which are not reflected in "Annual Fund Operating Expenses" or in the "Example," affect the fund's performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the fund's portfolio turnover rate was 54% of the average value of its portfolio.

#### Principal Investment Strategies
MFS (Massachusetts Financial Services Company, the fund's investment adviser) normally invests at least 80% of the fund's net assets in issuers with medium market capitalizations. MFS generally defines medium market capitalization issuers as issuers with market capitalizations similar to those of issuers included in the Russell Midcap<sup>®</sup> Index over the last 13 months at the time of purchase. As of November 30, 2025, the range of the market capitalizations of the issuers in the Russell Midcap<sup>®</sup> Index was between between approximately $956.3 million and $115.7 billion.

#### Effective June 10, 2026, the paragraph directly above is restated in its entirety with the following paragraph:
MFS (Massachusetts Financial Services Company, the fund's investment adviser) normally invests at least 80% of the fund's net assets in growth companies with medium market capitalizations. MFS defines medium market capitalization companies as issuers that (i) have market capitalizations within the capitalization range of the Russell Midcap<sup>®</sup> Index over the past 12 months based on the current composition of the index and/or are (ii) classified as a medium capitalization company by an independent third party financial data provider. The market capitalization range of companies considered to have medium capitalizations based on the above criteria will change over time depending on market conditions. For illustrative purposes, as of November 30, 2025, the range of the market capitalizations of the issuers in the Russell Midcap<sup>®</sup> Index was between approximately $956.3 million and $115.7 billion, and the fund's average weighted market capitalization as of that date was $39.3 billion. Growth companies are companies that MFS believes have above average potential with respect to the rate and duration of earnings growth compared to other companies. MFS considers a number of factors when determining a company's growth potential, including whether (i) the issuer is included in an index that is representative of growth companies; (ii) the issuer is classified as a growth company by an independent third party; and/or (iii) the issuer exhibits the characteristics of a growth company, considering metrics such as historical and/or projected growth rates relative to the applicable equity market. Growth companies tend to have stock prices that are high relative to their earnings, dividends, book value, or other financial measures.

MFS normally invests the fund's assets primarily in equity securities. Equity securities include common stocks, depositary receipts, and other securities that represent an ownership interest (or right to acquire an ownership interest) in a company or other issuer.

#### Effective June 10, 2026, the sentence directly below is deleted in its entirety.
MFS focuses on investing the fund's assets in the stocks of companies it believes have above average potential with respect to the rate and duration of earnings growth compared to other companies (growth companies).

MFS may invest the fund's assets in foreign securities.

MFS normally invests the fund's assets across different industries and sectors, but MFS may invest a significant percentage of the fund's assets in issuers in a single industry or sector.

MFS uses an active bottom-up investment approach to buying and selling investments for the fund. Investments are selected primarily based on fundamental analysis of individual issuers. Quantitative screening tools that systematically evaluate issuers may also be considered.

For purposes of the fund's 80% policy, net assets include the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes.

#### Principal Risks
As with any mutual fund, the fund may not achieve its objective and/or you could lose money on your investment in the fund. An investment in the fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency.

The principal risks of investing in the fund are:

**Investment Selection Risk:** MFS' investment analysis and its selection of investments may not produce the intended results and/or can lead to an investment focus that results in the fund underperforming other funds with similar investment strategies and/or underperforming the markets in which the fund invests. In addition, to the extent MFS considers quantitative tools in managing the fund, such tools may not produce the intended results.

**Equity Market Risk/Company Risk:** Equity markets are volatile and can decline significantly in response to changes in, or investor

MFS Mid Cap Growth Fund

perceptions of, issuer, market, economic, industry, political, regulatory, geopolitical, environmental, public health, and other conditions. These conditions can affect a single issuer or type of security, issuers within a broad market sector, industry or geographic region, or the equity markets in general. Certain events can have a dramatic adverse effect on equity markets and may lead to periods of high volatility in an equity market or a segment of an equity market. The value of an investment held by the fund may decline due to factors directly related to the issuer.

**Growth Company Risk:** The stocks of growth companies can be more sensitive to the company's earnings and more volatile than the market in general.

**Mid Cap Risk:** The stocks of mid cap companies can be more volatile and their shares can be less liquid than those of larger companies.

**Foreign Risk: Exposure to foreign markets through issuers or currencies can involve additional risks relating to market, economic, industry, political, regulatory, geopolitical, environmental, public health, and other conditions. These factors can make foreign investments, especially those tied economically to countries with developing economies or countries subject to sanctions or the threat of new or modified sanctions, more volatile and less liquid than U.S. investments. In addition, foreign markets can react differently to these conditions than the U.S. market.**

**Focus Risk:** Issuers in a single industry, sector, country, or region can react similarly to market, currency, political, economic, regulatory, geopolitical, environmental, public health, and other conditions, and the fund's performance will be affected by the conditions in the industries, sectors, countries, and regions to which the fund is exposed. Furthermore, investments in particular industries, sectors, countries, or regions may be more volatile than the broader market as a whole.

**Liquidity Risk:** It may be difficult to value, and it may not be possible to sell, certain investments, types of investments, and/or investments in certain segments of the market, and the fund may have to sell certain of these investments at prices or times that are not advantageous in order to meet redemptions or other cash needs.

**Large Shareholder Risk:** From time to time, shareholders of the fund (which may include institutional investors, financial intermediaries, or other MFS funds) may make relatively large redemptions or purchases of fund shares. These transactions may cause the fund to sell securities or invest additional cash, as the case may be, at disadvantageous prices. Redemptions of a large number of shares also may increase transaction and other costs or have adverse tax consequences for shareholders of the fund by requiring a sale of portfolio securities. Purchases of a large number of shares may adversely affect the fund's performance to the extent that it takes time to invest new cash and the fund maintains a larger cash position than it ordinarily would.

#### Performance Information
The bar chart and performance table below are intended to provide some indication of the risks of investing in the fund by showing changes in the fund's performance over time and how the fund's performance over time compares with that of (i) a broad measure of market performance and (ii) the performance of an additional index that the adviser believes more closely reflects the market segments in which the fund invests.

The fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the fund will perform in the future. Updated performance is available online at **mfs.com** or by calling 1-800-225-2606.

**Class A Bar Chart.** The bar chart does not take into account any sales charges (loads) that you may be required to pay upon purchase or redemption of the fund's shares. If these sales charges were included, they would reduce the returns shown.

---

Purchases of Class B shares are closed to new and existing investors except through reinvestment of dividends and capital gain distributions. Existing investors may continue to exchange their Class B shares for the same share class of another MFS fund.

Purchases of Class R1 and Class R2 shares are closed to new eligible investors. Existing eligible investors can make additional purchases and reinvest distributions in Class R1 and Class R2 shares in any account open. Existing eligible investors may also exchange their Class R1 and Class R2 shares for the same share class of another MFS fund, open new Class R1 and Class R2 share accounts in other MFS funds, or transfer some or all of the shares in their account to another account and such account will be treated as an open account. Subject to the approval of the fund's Board of Trustees, the fund may in the future (i) close purchases of Class R1 and/or Class R2 shares to existing eligible investors; (ii) terminate and liquidate Class R1 and/or Class R2 shares; or (iii) convert Class R1 and/or Class R2 shares to another share class of the fund. Such actions may be undertaken without shareholder approval, but the fund expects to provide shareholders with at least 60 days' notice before taking any such action.

#### Taxes
If your shares are held in a taxable account, the fund's distributions will be taxed to you as ordinary income and/or capital gains. However, if your shares are held in a tax-advantaged account, you will generally be taxed only upon withdrawals from the account unless such an account allows for tax-free withdrawals.

#### Payments to Broker/Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries
If you purchase shares of the fund through a broker/dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the fund, MFS, and/or MFS' affiliates may pay the financial intermediary for the sale of shares of the fund and/or the servicing of shareholder accounts. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing your broker/dealer or other financial intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the fund over another investment. Ask your financial intermediary or visit your financial intermediary's website for more information.
