EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Amendment No. 461 to the Registration Statement of PIMCO Funds (the “Trust” or the “Registrant”) on Form N-1A (File No. 811-05028) (the “Registration Statement”) is being filed to make changes to each Offering Memorandum and Offering Memorandum Supplement of the Trust’s Private Account Portfolio Series, each dated July 31, 2019.
The shares of beneficial interest in the Private Account Portfolio Series are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), because such shares will be issued by the Registrant solely in private placement transactions that do not involve any “public offering” within the meaning of the 1933 Act. Shares of the Private Account Portfolio Series may be purchased only by clients of Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”), including separately managed private accounts and investment companies registered under the 1940 Act, and other funds, who are “accredited investors,” as defined in Regulation D under the 1933 Act, and either (i) “qualified purchasers,” as defined for purposes of Section 3(c)(7) of the 1940 Act, or (ii) “qualified institutional buyers,” as defined in Rule 144A(a)(1) under the 1933 Act. Shares of the Private Account Portfolio Series may also be purchased by certain investors outside of the United States consistent with applicable regulatory requirements. This Amendment is not an offer to sell, or a solicitation of any offer to buy, any security to the public within the meaning of the 1933 Act.

Private Account Portfolio Series
Amendment dated April 7, 2020 to the Private Account Portfolio Series Offering Memorandum,
dated July 31, 2019, as amended from time to time (the "Offering Memorandum")
Effective immediately, the second, third, and fourth paragraphs of the "Description of Principal Risks – Market Risk" section of the Offering Memorandum are deleted and replaced with the following:
In addition, market risk includes the risk that geopolitical and other events will disrupt the economy on a national or global level. For instance, war, terrorism, market manipulation, government defaults, government shutdowns, political changes or diplomatic developments, public health emergencies (such as the spread of infectious diseases, pandemics and epidemics) and natural/environmental disasters can all negatively impact the securities markets, which could cause the Portfolios to lose value. These events could reduce consumer demand or economic output, result in market closures, travel restrictions or quarantines, and significantly adversely impact the economy. The current contentious domestic political environment, as well as political and diplomatic events within the United States and abroad, such as the U.S. government's inability at times to agree on a long-term budget and deficit reduction plan, has in the past resulted, and may in the future result, in a government shutdown, which could have an adverse impact on a Portfolio's investments and operations. Additional and/or prolonged U.S. federal government shutdowns may affect investor and consumer confidence and may adversely impact financial markets and the broader economy, perhaps suddenly and to a significant degree. Governmental and quasi-governmental authorities and regulators throughout the world have previously responded to serious economic disruptions with a variety of significant fiscal and monetary policy changes, including but not limited to, direct capital infusions into companies, new monetary programs and dramatically lower interest rates. An unexpected or sudden reversal of these policies, or the ineffectiveness of these policies, could increase volatility in securities markets, which could adversely affect a Portfolio's investments. Any market disruptions could also prevent a Portfolio from executing advantageous investment decisions in a timely manner. Portfolios that have focused their investments in a region enduring geopolitical market disruption will face higher risks of loss, although the increasing interconnectivity between global economies and financial markets can lead to events or conditions in one country, region or financial market adversely impacting a different country, region or financial market. Thus, investors should closely monitor current market conditions to determine whether a specific Portfolio meets their individual financial needs and tolerance for risk.
Current market conditions may pose heightened risks with respect to Portfolios that invest in fixed income securities. As discussed more under "Interest Rate Risk," interest rates in the U.S. are at or near historically low levels. Any interest rate increases in the future could cause the value of any Portfolio that invests in fixed income securities to decrease. As such, fixed income securities markets may experience heightened levels of interest rate, volatility and liquidity risk. If rising interest rates cause a Portfolio to lose enough value, the Portfolio could also face increased shareholder redemptions, which could force the Portfolio to liquidate investments at disadvantageous times or prices, therefore adversely affecting the Portfolio and its shareholders.
Exchanges and securities markets may close early, close late or issue trading halts on specific securities or generally, which may result in, among other things, a Portfolio being unable to buy or sell certain securities or financial instruments at an advantageous time or accurately price its portfolio investments. In addition, a Portfolio may rely on various third-party sources to calculate its NAV. As a result, a Portfolio is subject to certain operational risks associated with reliance on service providers and service providers' data sources. In particular, errors or systems failures and other technological issues may adversely impact a Portfolio's calculations of its NAV, and such NAV calculation issues may result in inaccurately calculated NAVs, delays in NAV calculation and/or the inability to calculate NAVs over extended periods. A Portfolio may be unable to recover any losses associated with such failures.

Short-Term Floating NAV Portfolio III Offering Memorandum,
each dated July 31, 2019, each as amended from time to time (each, an "Offering Memorandum")
Effective immediately, the second, third, and fourth paragraphs of the "Description of Principal Risks – Market Risk" section of each Offering Memorandum are deleted and replaced with the following:

PIMCO Funds
Private Account Portfolio Series
Amendment dated April 7, 2020 to the Private Account Portfolio Series Offering Memorandum Supplement,
dated July 31, 2019, as amended from time to time (the "Offering Memorandum Supplement")
Effective immediately, the following is added after the first paragraph of the "Investment Objectives and Policies – Portfolio Operations" section of the Offering Memorandum Supplement:
Market Disruptions Risk. The Portfolios are subject to investment and operational risks associated with financial, economic and other global market developments and disruptions, including those arising from war, terrorism, market manipulation, government interventions, defaults and shutdowns, political changes or diplomatic developments, public health emergencies (such as the spread of infectious diseases, pandemics and epidemics) and natural/environmental disasters, which can all negatively impact the securities markets and cause a Portfolio to lose value. These events can also impair the technology and other operational systems upon which the Portfolios' service providers, including PIMCO as the Portfolios' investment adviser, rely, and could otherwise disrupt the Portfolios' service providers' ability to fulfill their obligations to the Portfolios.
The recent spread of an infectious respiratory illness caused by a novel strain of coronavirus (known as COVID-19) has caused volatility, severe market dislocations and liquidity constraints in many markets, including markets for the securities the Portfolios hold, and may adversely affect the Portfolios' investments and operations. The transmission of COVID-19 and efforts to contain its spread have resulted in travel restrictions and disruptions, closed international borders, enhanced health screenings at ports of entry and elsewhere, disruption of and delays in healthcare service preparation and delivery, quarantines, event and service cancellations or interruptions, disruptions to business operations (including staff furloughs and reductions) and supply chains, and a reduction in consumer and business spending, as well as general concern and uncertainty that has negatively affected the economy. These disruptions have led to instability in the market place, including equity and debt market losses and overall volatility, and the jobs market. The impact of COVID-19, and other infectious illness outbreaks, epidemics or pandemics that may arise in the future, could adversely affect the economies of many nations or the entire global economy, the financial well-being and performance of individual issuers, borrowers and sectors and the health of the markets generally in potentially significant and unforeseen ways. In addition, the impact of infectious illnesses, such as COVID-19, in emerging market countries may be greater due to generally less established healthcare systems. This crisis or other public health crises may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social and economic risks in certain countries or globally.
The foregoing could lead to a significant economic downturn or recession, increased market volatility, a greater number of market closures, higher default rates and adverse effects on the values and liquidity of securities or other assets. Such impacts, which may vary across asset classes, may adversely affect the performance of the Portfolios. In certain cases, an exchange or market may close or issue trading halts on specific securities or even the entire market, which may result in the Portfolios being, among other things, unable to buy or sell certain securities or financial instruments or to accurately price their investments. These and other developments may adversely affect the liquidity of the Portfolios' holdings (see "Liquidity Risk" in the Offering Memorandum for further details).

Item 30.Indemnification
Reference is made to Article IV of the Registrant’s Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust, which was filed with the Registrant’s Post-Effective Amendment No. 265 on November 7, 2014.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to trustees, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant by the Registrant pursuant to the Declaration of Trust or otherwise, the Registrant is aware that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and, therefore, is unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by trustees, officers or controlling persons of the Registrant in connection with the successful defense of any act, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such trustees, officers or controlling persons in connection with the shares being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issues.
