Letter from the Chair of the Board & President
Dear Shareholder,
We hope that you and your family are remaining safe and healthy during these challenging times. We continue to work tirelessly to navigate markets and manage the assets that you have entrusted with us. Following this letter is the PIMCO Closed-End Funds Semiannual Report, which covers the six-month reporting period ended June 30, 2022. On the subsequent pages, you will find specific details regarding investment results and a discussion of the factors that most affected performance during the reporting period.
For the six-month reporting period ended June 30, 2022
The global economy continued to be affected by the COVID-19 pandemic (COVID-19) and its variants. Looking back, fourth quarter 2021 U.S. annualized gross domestic product (GDP) grew 6.9%. The economy then experienced a setback, as first quarter 2022 GDP growth was -1.6%. Finally, the Commerce Departments initial estimate for second quarter 2022 GDP growth released after the reporting period ended was -0.9%.
In the U.S., the Federal Reserve Board (the Fed) took several steps to tighten monetary policy to combat elevated inflation. The Fed reduced the monthly pace of its net asset purchases of Treasury securities and agency mortgage-backed securities in November 2021 and again in December. The Fed ended its monthly asset purchases in mid-March 2022. The Fed then raised the federal funds rate 0.25% to a range between 0.25% and 0.50% in March 2022, its first rate hike since 2018. The central bank then raised rates 0.50% in its May 2022 meeting and 0.75% in its June meeting. Finally, on July 27, 2022 after the reporting period ended the Fed raised rates 0.75%, to a range between 2.25% and 2.50%.
Economies outside the U.S. also continued to be impacted by the pandemic. The war in Ukraine and its repercussions also led to increased uncertainties around the world. In its April 2022 World Economic Outlook Update, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) said it expects U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) growth to be 3.7% in 2022, compared to 5.7% in 2021. Elsewhere, the IMF expects 2022 GDP to grow 2.8% in the eurozone (from 5.3% in 2021), 3.7% in the U.K. (from 7.4% in 2021) and 2.4% in Japan (from 1.6% in 2021).
Several other central banks began tightening monetary policy during the period. In December 2021, the Bank of England (the BoE) surprised the market and raised rates for the first time since COVID-19 began. The BoE again raised rates at its meetings in February, March, May and June 2022. The European Central Bank (the ECB) indicated that it intended to raise rates at its September 2022 meeting. Elsewhere, the Bank of Japan (the BoJ) maintained its loose monetary policy and appears likely to remain accommodative in the near future given the headwinds facing its economy.
During the reporting period, short- and long-term U.S. Treasury yields moved sharply higher. The yield on the benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury note was 2.98% on June 30, 2022, versus 1.52% on December 31, 2021. The Bloomberg Global Treasury Index (USD Hedged), which tracks fixed-rate, local currency government debt of investment grade countries, including developed and emerging markets, returned -8.07%. Meanwhile, the Bloomberg Global Aggregate Credit Index (USD Hedged), a widely used index of global investment grade credit bonds, returned -12.83%. Riskier fixed income asset classes, including high yield corporate bonds and emerging market debt, were also weak. The ICE BofAML Developed Markets High Yield Constrained Index (USD Hedged), a widely used index of below-investment-grade bonds, returned -13.85%, whereas emerging market external debt, as represented by the JPMorgan Emerging Markets Bond Index (EMBI) Global (USD Hedged), returned -18.83%. Emerging market local bonds, as represented by the JPMorgan Government Bond Index-Emerging Markets Global Diversified Index (Unhedged), returned -14.53%.
The municipal (or muni) market experienced periods of volatility and generated a negative return. All told, the Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index (USD Unhedged) returned -8.98% during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The muni market was negatively impacted by sharply rising interest rates, along with fund outflows, as the current outflow cycle is now the worst on record.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Unless otherwise noted, index returns reflect the reinvestment of income distributions and capital gains, if any, but do not reflect fees, brokerage commissions or other expenses of investing. It is not possible to invest directly in an unmanaged index.
SEMIANNUAL REPORT | | | JUNE 30, 2022 | 3 |
Important Information About the Funds |
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well-diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities and other instruments held by a Fund are likely to decrease in value. A wide variety of factors can cause interest rates or yields of U.S. Treasury securities (or yields of other types of bonds) to rise (e.g., central bank monetary policies, inflation rates, general economic conditions). In addition, changes in interest rates can be sudden and unpredictable, and there is no guarantee that Fund management will anticipate such movement accurately. A Fund may lose money as a result of movement in interest rates.
As of the date of this report, interest rates in the United States and many parts of the world, including certain European countries, are ascending from historically low levels. Thus, the Funds currently face a heightened level of risk associated with rising interest rates and/or bond yields. This could be driven by a variety of factors, including but not limited to central bank monetary policies, changing inflation or real growth rates, general economic conditions, increasing bond issuances or reduced market demand for low yielding investments. Further, while bond markets have steadily grown over the past three decades, dealer inventories of corporate bonds are near historic lows in relation to market size. As a result, there has been a significant reduction in the ability of dealers to make markets.
Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure used to determine the sensitivity of a securitys price to changes in interest rates) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. In addition, in the current low interest rate environment, the market price of the Funds common shares may be particularly sensitive to changes in interest rates or the perception that there will be a change in interest rates. All of the factors mentioned above, individually or collectively, could lead to increased volatility and/or lower liquidity in the fixed income markets or negatively impact a Funds performance or cause a Fund to incur losses.
Classifications of the Funds portfolio holdings in this report are made according to financial reporting standards. The classification of a particular portfolio holding as shown in the Allocation Breakdown and Schedule of Investments and other sections of this report may differ from the classification used for the Funds compliance calculations, including those used in the Funds prospectus, investment objectives, regulatory, and other investment limitations and policies, which may be based on different asset class, sector or geographical classifications. Each Fund is separately monitored for compliance with respect to prospectus and regulatory requirements.
The geographical classification of foreign (non-U.S.) securities in this report, if any, are classified by the country of incorporation of a holding. In certain instances, a securitys country of incorporation may be different from its country of economic exposure.
Beginning in January 2020, global financial markets have experienced and may continue to experience significant volatility resulting from the spread of a novel coronavirus known as COVID-19. The outbreak of COVID-19 has resulted in travel and border restrictions, quarantines, supply chain disruptions, lower consumer demand and general market uncertainty. The effects of COVID-19 have and may continue to adversely affect the global economy, the economies of certain nations and individual issuers, all of which may negatively impact the Funds performance. In addition, COVID-19 and governmental responses to COVID-19 may negatively impact the capabilities of the Funds service providers and disrupt the Funds operations.
The United States enforcement of restrictions on U.S. investments in certain issuers and tariffs on goods from other countries, each with a focus on China, has contributed to international trade tensions and may impact portfolio securities.
The United Kingdoms withdrawal from the European Union may impact Fund returns. The withdrawal may cause substantial volatility in foreign exchange markets, lead to weakness in the exchange rate of the British pound, result in a sustained period of market uncertainty, and destabilize some or all of the other European Union member countries and/or the Eurozone.
The Funds may invest in certain instruments that rely in some fashion upon the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). LIBOR is an average interest rate, determined by the ICE Benchmark Administration, that banks charge one another for the use of short-term money. The United Kingdoms Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, has announced plans to ultimately phase out the use of LIBOR. The transition may result in a reduction in the value of certain instruments held by a Fund or a reduction in the effectiveness of related Fund transactions such as hedges. There remains uncertainty regarding future utilization of LIBOR and the nature of any replacement rate (e.g., the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, which is intended to replace U.S. dollar LIBOR and measures the cost of overnight borrowings through repurchase agreement transactions collateralized with U.S. Treasury securities). Any potential effects of the transition away from LIBOR on the Fund or on certain instruments in which the Fund invests can be difficult to ascertain, and they may vary depending on a variety of factors. The transition may also result in a reduction in the value of certain instruments held by a Fund or a reduction in the effectiveness of related Fund transactions such as hedges. Any such effects of the transition away from LIBOR, as well as other unforeseen effects, could result in losses to a Fund.

Investing in the municipal bond market involves the risks of investing in debt securities generally and certain other risks. The amount of public information available about the municipal bonds in which a Fund may invest is generally less than that for corporate equities or bonds, and the investment performance of a Funds investment in municipal bonds may therefore be more dependent on the analytical abilities of PIMCO than its investments in taxable bonds. The secondary market for municipal bonds also tends to be less well-developed or liquid than many other securities markets, which may adversely affect a Funds ability to sell its bonds at attractive prices.
The ability of municipal issuers to make timely payments of interest and principal may be diminished during general economic downturns, by litigation, legislation or political events, or by the bankruptcy of the issuer. Issuers of municipal securities also might seek protection under the bankruptcy laws. In the event of bankruptcy of such an issuer, a Fund could experience delays in collecting principal and interest and the Fund may not, in all circumstances, be able to collect all principal and interest to which it is entitled.
A fund that has substantial exposures to California municipal bonds may be affected significantly by economic, regulatory or political developments affecting the ability of California issuers to pay interest or repay principal. Certain issuers of California municipal bonds have experienced serious financial difficulties in the past and reoccurrence of these difficulties may impair the ability of certain California issuers to pay principal or interest on their obligations. Provisions of the California Constitution and State statutes that limit the taxing and spending authority of California governmental entities may impair the ability of California issuers to pay principal and/or interest on their obligations. While Californias economy is broad, it does have major concentrations in advanced technology, aerospace and defense-related manufacturing, trade, entertainment, real estate and financial services, and may be sensitive to economic problems affecting those industries. Future California political and economic developments, constitutional amendments, legislative measures, executive orders, administrative regulations, litigation and voter initiatives could have an adverse effect on the debt obligations of California issuers.
A fund that has substantial exposures to New York municipal bonds may be affected significantly by economic, regulatory or political developments affecting the ability of New York issuers to pay interest or repay principal. While New Yorks economy is broad, it does have concentrations in the financial services industry, and may be sensitive to economic problems affecting that industry. Certain issuers of New York municipal bonds have experienced serious financial difficulties in the past and reoccurrence of these difficulties may impair the ability of certain New York issuers to pay principal or interest on their obligations. The financial health of New York City affects that of the
State, and when New York City experiences financial difficulty, it may have an adverse effect on New York municipal bonds held by a Fund. The growth rate of New York has at times been somewhat slower than the nation overall. The economic and financial condition of New York also may be affected by various financial, social, economic and political factors.
The common shares of the Funds trade on the New York Stock Exchange. As with any stock, the price of a Funds common shares will fluctuate with market conditions and other factors. If you sell your common shares of a Fund, the price received may be more or less than your original investment.
Shares of closed-end investment management companies, such as the Funds, frequently trade at a discount from their net asset value (NAV) and may trade at a price that is less than the initial offering price and/or the NAV of such shares. Further, if a Funds shares trade at a price that is more than the initial offering price and/or the NAV of such shares, including at a substantial premium and/or for an extended period of time, there is no assurance that any such premium will be sustained for any period of time and will not decrease, or that the shares will not trade at a discount to NAV thereafter.
The Funds may be subject to various risks as described in each Funds prospectus and in the Principal and Other Risks in the Notes to Financial Statements.
On each Fund Summary page in this Shareholder Report, the Average Annual Total Return table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested. Total return is calculated by determining the percentage change in NAV or market price (as applicable) in the specified period. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions. Total return for a period of more than one year represents the average annual total return. Performance at market price will differ from results at NAV. Although market price returns tend to reflect investment results over time, during shorter periods returns at market price can also be influenced by factors such as changing views about a Fund, market conditions, supply and demand for the Funds shares, or changes in the Funds dividends. Performance shown is net of fees and expenses. Historical NAV performance for a Fund may have been positively impacted by fee waivers or expense limitations in place during some or all of the periods shown, if applicable. Future performance (including total return or yield) and distributions may be negatively impacted by the expiration or reduction of any such fee waivers or expense limitations.
The dividend rate that a Fund pays on its common shares may vary as portfolio and market conditions change, and will depend on a number of factors, including without limit the amount of a Funds undistributed

net investment income and net short- and long-term capital gains, as well as the costs of any leverage obtained by a Fund. As portfolio and market conditions change, the rate of distributions on the common shares and a Funds dividend policy could change. There can be no assurance that a change in market conditions or other factors will not result in a change in a Fund distribution rate or that the rate will be sustainable in the future.

An investment in a Fund is not a bank deposit and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Funds.
The Trustees are responsible generally for overseeing the management of the Funds. The Trustees authorize the Funds to enter into service agreements with the Manager and other service providers in order to provide, and in some cases authorize service providers to procure through other parties, necessary or desirable services on behalf of the Funds. Shareholders are not parties to or third-party beneficiaries of such service agreements. Neither a Funds prospectus or Statement of Additional Information (SAI), any press release or shareholder report, any contracts filed as exhibits to a Funds registration statement, nor any other communications, disclosure documents or regulatory filings (including this report) from or on behalf of a Fund creates a contract between or among any shareholders of a Fund, on the one hand, and the Fund, a service provider to the Fund, and/or the Trustees or officers of the Fund, on the other hand. The Trustees (or the Funds and their officers, service providers or other delegates acting under authority of the Trustees) may amend its most recent prospectus or use a new prospectus or SAI with respect to a Fund, adopt and disclose new or amended policies and other changes in press releases and shareholder reports and/or amend, file and/or issue any other communications, disclosure documents or regulatory filings, and may amend or enter into any contracts to which a Fund is a party, and interpret the investment objective(s), policies, restrictions and contractual provisions applicable to any Fund, without shareholder input or approval, except
in circumstances in which shareholder approval is specifically required by law (such as changes to fundamental investment policies) or where a shareholder approval requirement was specifically disclosed in a Funds prospectus, SAI or shareholder report and is otherwise still in effect.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (Proxy Policy) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Funds as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Funds. A description of the policies and procedures that PIMCO uses to vote proxies relating to portfolio securities of each Fund, and information about how each Fund voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30th, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Funds at (844) 33-PIMCO, on the Funds website at www.pimco.com, and on the Securities and Exchange Commissions (SEC) website at www.sec.gov.
The Funds file portfolio holdings information with the SEC on Form N-PORT within 60 days of the end of each fiscal quarter. The Funds complete schedules of securities holdings as of the end of each fiscal quarter will be made available to the public on the SECs website at www.sec.gov and on PIMCOs website at www.pimco.com, and will be made available, upon request, by calling PIMCO at (844) 33-PIMCO.
SEC rules allow shareholder reports to be delivered to investors by providing access to such reports online free of charge and by mailing a notice that the report is electronically available. Investors may elect to receive all reports in paper free of charge by contacting their financial intermediary or, if invested directly with a Fund, investors can inform the Fund by calling (844) 33-PIMCO. Any election to receive reports in paper will apply to all funds held with the fund complex if invested directly with a Fund or to all funds held in the investors account if invested through a financial intermediary, such as a broker-dealer or bank.
In April 2020, the SEC adopted amended rules modifying the registration, communications, and offering processes for registered closed-end funds and interval funds. Among other things, the amendments: (1) permit qualifying closed-end funds to use a short-form registration statement to offer securities in eligible transactions and certain funds to qualify as Well Known Seasoned Issuers; (2) permit interval funds to pay registration fees based on net issuance of shares in a manner similar to mutual funds; (3) require closed-end funds and interval funds to include additional disclosures in their annual reports; and (4) require certain information to be filed in interactive data format. The new rules have phased compliance dates, with some requirements having already taken effect and others requiring compliance as late as February 1, 2023.
6 | PIMCO CLOSED-END FUNDS |
In October 2020, the SEC adopted a rule related to the use of derivatives, short sales, reverse repurchase agreements and certain other transactions by registered investment companies that rescinds and withdraws the guidance of the SEC and its staff regarding asset segregation and cover transactions that was applicable to the Funds as of the date of this report. Subject to certain exceptions, the rule requires funds that trade derivatives and other transactions that create future payment or delivery obligations to comply with a value-at-risk leverage limit and certain derivatives risk management program and reporting requirements. These requirements may limit the ability of the Funds to use derivatives and reverse repurchase agreements and similar financing transactions as part of their investment strategies and may increase the cost of the Funds investments and cost of doing business, which could adversely affect investors. The rule went into effect on February 19, 2021. The compliance date for the new rule and related recordkeeping requirements is August 19, 2022.
In October 2020, the SEC adopted a rule regarding the ability of a fund to invest in other funds. The rule allows a fund to acquire shares of another fund in excess of certain limitations currently imposed by the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Act) without obtaining individual exemptive relief from the SEC, subject to certain conditions. The rule also includes the rescission of certain exemptive relief from the SEC and guidance from the SEC staff for funds to invest in other funds. The effective date for the rule was January 19, 2021, and the compliance date for the rule was January 19, 2022.
In December 2020, the SEC adopted a rule addressing fair valuation of fund investments. The new rule sets forth requirements for good faith determinations of fair value as well as for the performance of fair value determinations, including related oversight and reporting obligations. The new rule also defines readily available market quotations for purposes of the definition of value under the Act, and the SEC noted that this definition will apply in all contexts under the Act. The effective date for the rule was March 8, 2021. The compliance date for the new rule and the associated recordkeeping requirements is September 8, 2022.
In May 2022, the SEC proposed amendments to a current rule governing fund naming conventions. In general, the current rule requires funds with certain types of names to adopt a policy to invest at least 80% of their assets in the type of investment suggested by the name. The proposed amendments would expand the scope of the current rule in a number of ways that would result in an expansion of the types of fund names that would require the fund to adopt an 80% investment policy under the rule. Additionally, the proposed amendments would modify the circumstances under which a fund may deviate from its 80% investment policy and address the use and
valuation of derivatives instruments for purposes of the rule. The proposals impact on the Funds will not be known unless and until any final rulemaking is adopted.
In May 2022, the SEC proposed a framework that would require certain registered funds (such as the Funds) to disclose their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) investing practices. Among other things, the proposed requirements would mandate that funds meeting three pre-defined classifications (i.e., integrated, ESG focused and/or impact funds) provide prospectus and shareholder report disclosure related to the ESG factors, criteria and processes used in managing the fund. The proposals impact on the Funds will not be known unless and until any final rulemaking is adopted.

All Fund returns are net of fees and expenses and include applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations. Absent any applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations, performance would have been lower and there can be no assurance that any such waivers or limitations will continue in the future.
* | Cumulative return |
(1) | Performance quoted represents past performance. Past performance is not a guarantee or a reliable indicator of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than performance shown. Investment return and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate. Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the sale of Fund shares. Total return, market price, NAV, market price distribution rate, and NAV distribution rate will fluctuate with changes in market conditions. Performance current to the most recent month-end is available at www.pimco.com or via (844) 33-PIMCO. Performance is calculated assuming all dividends and distributions are reinvested at prices obtained under the Funds dividend reinvestment plan. Performance does not reflect any brokerage commissions in connection with the purchase or sale of Fund shares. |
(2) | Distribution rates are not performance and are calculated by annualizing the most recent distribution per share and dividing by the NAV or Market Price, as applicable, as of the reported date. Distributions may be comprised of ordinary income, net capital gains, and/or a return of capital (ROC) of your investment in the Fund. Because the distribution rate may include a ROC, it should not be confused with yield or income. If the Fund estimates that a portion of its distribution may be comprised of amounts from sources other than net investment income in accordance with its policies and good accounting practices, the Fund will notify shareholders of the estimated composition of such distribution through a Section 19 Notice. Please refer to the most recent Section 19 Notice, if applicable, for additional information regarding the estimated composition of distributions. Please visit www.pimco.com for most recent Section 19 Notice, if applicable. Final determination of a distributions tax character will be provided to shareholders when such information is available. |
(3) | Represents total effective leverage outstanding, as a percentage of total managed assets. Total effective leverage consists of preferred shares, reverse repurchase agreements and other borrowings, credit default swap notional and floating rate notes issued in tender option bond transactions, as applicable (collectively Total Effective Leverage). The Fund may engage in other transactions not included in Total Effective Leverage disclosed above that may give rise to a form of leverage, including certain derivative transactions. For the purpose of calculating Total Effective Leverage outstanding as a percentage of total managed assets, total managed assets refer to total assets (including assets attributable to Total Effective Leverage that may be outstanding) minus accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing Total Effective Leverage). |
Investment Objective and Strategy Overview
PIMCO Municipal Income Funds investment objective is to seek to provide current income exempt from federal income tax.
Fund Insights at NAV
The following affected performance (on a gross basis) during the reporting period:
» | Select exposure to taxable municipal bonds contributed to performance, as holdings outperformed the general municipal market. |

* | Cumulative return |
(1) | Performance quoted represents past performance. Past performance is not a guarantee or a reliable indicator of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than performance shown. Investment return and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate. Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the sale of Fund shares. Total return, market price, NAV, market price distribution rate, and NAV distribution rate will fluctuate with changes in market conditions. Performance current to the most recent month-end is available at www.pimco.com or via (844) 33-PIMCO. Performance is calculated assuming all dividends and distributions are reinvested at prices obtained under the Funds dividend reinvestment plan. Performance does not reflect any brokerage commissions in connection with the purchase or sale of Fund shares. |
(2) | Distribution rates are not performance and are calculated by annualizing the most recent distribution per share and dividing by the NAV or Market Price, as applicable, as of the reported date. Distributions may be comprised of ordinary income, net capital gains, and/or a return of capital (ROC) of your investment in the Fund. Because the distribution rate may include a ROC, it should not be confused with yield or income. If the Fund estimates that a portion of its distribution may be comprised of amounts from sources other than net investment income in accordance with its policies and good accounting practices, the Fund will notify shareholders of the estimated composition of such distribution through a Section 19 Notice. Please refer to the most recent Section 19 Notice, if applicable, for additional information regarding the estimated composition of distributions. Please visit www.pimco.com for most recent Section 19 Notice, if applicable. Final determination of a distributions tax character will be provided to shareholders when such information is available. |
(3) | Represents total effective leverage outstanding, as a percentage of total managed assets. Total effective leverage consists of preferred shares, reverse repurchase agreements and other borrowings, credit default swap notional and floating rate notes issued in tender option bond transactions, as applicable (collectively Total Effective Leverage). The Fund may engage in other transactions not included in Total Effective Leverage disclosed above that may give rise to a form of leverage, including certain derivative transactions. For the purpose of calculating Total Effective Leverage outstanding as a percentage of total managed assets, total managed assets refer to total assets (including assets attributable to Total Effective Leverage that may be outstanding) minus accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing Total Effective Leverage). |

* | Cumulative return |
(1) | Performance quoted represents past performance. Past performance is not a guarantee or a reliable indicator of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than performance shown. Investment return and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate. Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the sale of Fund shares. Total return, market price, NAV, market price distribution rate, and NAV distribution rate will fluctuate with changes in market conditions. Performance current to the most recent month-end is available at www.pimco.com or via (844) 33-PIMCO. Performance is calculated assuming all dividends and distributions are reinvested at prices obtained under the Funds dividend reinvestment plan. Performance does not reflect any brokerage commissions in connection with the purchase or sale of Fund shares. |
(2) | Distribution rates are not performance and are calculated by annualizing the most recent distribution per share and dividing by the NAV or Market Price, as applicable, as of the reported date. Distributions may be comprised of ordinary income, net capital gains, and/or a return of capital (ROC) of your investment in the Fund. Because the distribution rate may include a ROC, it should not be confused with yield or income. If the Fund estimates that a portion of its distribution may be comprised of amounts from sources other than net investment income in accordance with its policies and good accounting practices, the Fund will notify shareholders of the estimated composition of such distribution through a Section 19 Notice. Please refer to the most recent Section 19 Notice, if applicable, for additional information regarding the estimated composition of distributions. Please visit www.pimco.com for most recent Section 19 Notice, if applicable. Final determination of a distributions tax character will be provided to shareholders when such information is available. |
(3) | Represents total effective leverage outstanding, as a percentage of total managed assets. Total effective leverage consists of preferred shares, reverse repurchase agreements and other borrowings, credit default swap notional and floating rate notes issued in tender option bond transactions, as applicable (collectively Total Effective Leverage). The Fund may engage in other transactions not included in Total Effective Leverage disclosed above that may give rise to a form of leverage, including certain derivative transactions. For the purpose of calculating Total Effective Leverage outstanding as a percentage of total managed assets, total managed assets refer to total assets (including assets attributable to Total Effective Leverage that may be outstanding) minus accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing Total Effective Leverage). |
Investment Objective and Strategy Overview
PIMCO New York Municipal Income Fund IIs investment objective is to seek to provide current income exempt from federal, New York State and New York City income tax.

^ | A zero balance may reflect actual amounts rounding to less than $0.01 or 0.01%. |
+ | Unaudited |
* | Annualized, except for organization expense, if any. |
(a) | Includes adjustments required by U.S. GAAP and may differ from net asset values and performance reported elsewhere by the Funds. |
(b) | Per share amounts based on average number of common shares outstanding during the year or period. |
(c) | Auction Rate Preferred Shareholders (ARPS). See Note 12, Auction Rate Preferred Shares, in the Notes to Financial Statements for more information |
(d) | The tax characterization of distributions is determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations. The actual tax characterization of distributions paid is determined at the end of the fiscal year. See Note 2, Distributions Common Shares, in the Notes to Financial Statements for more information. |
(e) | Total investment return is calculated assuming a purchase of a common share at the market price on the first day and a sale of a common share at the market price on the last day of each year or period reported. Dividends and distributions, if any, are assumed, for purposes of this calculation, to be reinvested at prices obtained under the Funds dividend reinvestment plan. Total investment return does not reflect brokerage commissions in connection with the purchase or sale of Fund shares. |
(f) | Calculated on the basis of income and expenses applicable to both common and preferred shares relative to the average net assets of common shareholders. The expense ratio and net investment income do not reflect the effects of dividend payments to preferred shareholders. |
(g) | Ratio includes interest expense which primarily relates to participation in borrowing and financing transactions, interest paid to RVMTP shareholders and the amortization of debt issuance costs of RVMTP Shares. See Note 5, Borrowings and Other Financing Transactions and Note 12, Remarketable Variable Rate MuniFund Term Preferred Shares in the Notes to Financial Statements for more information. |
1 | Asset Coverage per Preferred Share means the ratio that the value of the total assets of the Fund, less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by ARPS or RVMTP, bears to the aggregate of the involuntary liquidation preference of ARPS or RVMTP, expressed as a dollar amount per ARPS or RVMTP. |
2 | Involuntary Liquidating Preference means the amount to which a holder of ARPS or RVMTP would be entitled upon the involuntary liquidation of the Fund in preference to the Common Shareholders, expressed as a dollar amount per Preferred Share. |
3 | The ARPS have no readily ascertainable market value. Auctions for the ARPS have failed since February 2008, there is currently no active trading market for the ARPS and the Fund is not able to reliably estimate what their value would be in a third-party market sale. The liquidation value of the ARPS represents its liquidation preference, which approximates fair value of the shares less any accumulated unpaid dividends. See Note 12, Auction Rate Preferred Shares, in the Notes to Financial Statements for more information. |
4 | The RVMTP have no readily ascertainable market value. The liquidation value of the RVMTP represents its liquidation preference, which approximates fair value of the shares less any unamortized debt issuance costs. See Note 12, Remarketable Variable Rate MuniFund Term Preferred Shares, in the Notes to Financial Statements for more information. |
5 | Prior to July 14, 2021, RVMTP Shares were VMTP Shares. See Note 12, Remarketable Variable Rate MuniFund Term Preferred Shares. |

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by each Fund in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). Each Fund is treated as an investment company under the reporting requirements of U.S. GAAP. The functional and reporting currency for the Funds is the U.S. dollar. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(a) Securities Transactions and Investment Income Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date for financial reporting purposes. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled beyond a standard settlement period for the security after the trade date. Realized gains (losses) from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as a Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date.
Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis from settlement date, with the exception of securities with a forward starting effective date, where interest income is recorded on the accrual basis from effective date. For convertible securities, premiums attributable to the conversion feature are not amortized. Estimated tax liabilities on certain foreign securities are recorded on an accrual basis and are reflected as components of interest income or net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments on the Statements of Operations, as appropriate. Tax liabilities realized as a result of such security sales are reflected as a component of net realized gain (loss) on investments on the Statements of Operations. Paydown gains (losses) on mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities, if any, are recorded as components of interest income on the Statements of Operations. Income or short-term capital gain distributions received from registered investment companies, if any, are recorded as dividend income. Long-term capital gain distributions received from registered investment companies, if any, are recorded as realized gains.
Debt obligations may be placed on non-accrual status and related interest income may be reduced by ceasing current accruals and writing off interest receivable when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful based on consistently applied procedures. A debt obligation is removed from non-accrual status when the issuer resumes interest payments or when collectability of interest is probable.
(b) Distributions Common Shares The following table shows the anticipated frequency of distributions from net investment income to common shareholders.

Each Fund intends to distribute at least annually to its shareholders all or substantially all of its net tax-exempt interest and any investment company taxable income, and may distribute its net capital gain.
Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from U.S. GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and U.S. GAAP may cause timing differences between income and capital gain recognition. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be
70 | PIMCO CLOSED-END FUNDS |
June 30, 2022 | (Unaudited) |
different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. As a result, income distributions and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income (loss) and realized gains (losses) reported on each Funds annual financial statements presented under U.S. GAAP.
Separately, if a Fund determines or estimates, as applicable, that a portion of a distribution may be comprised of amounts from sources other than net investment income in accordance with its policies, accounting records (if applicable), and accounting practices, the Fund will notify shareholders of the estimated composition of such distribution through a Section 19 Notice. For these purposes, a Fund determines or estimates, as applicable, the source or sources from which a distribution is paid, to the close of the period as of which it is paid, in reference to its internal accounting records and related accounting practices. If, based on such accounting records and practices, it is determined or estimated, as applicable, that a particular distribution does not include capital gains or paid-in surplus or other capital sources, a Section 19 Notice generally would not be issued. It is important to note that differences exist between a Funds daily internal accounting records and practices, a Funds financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and recordkeeping practices under income tax regulations. For instance, a Funds internal accounting records and practices may take into account, among other factors, tax-related characteristics of certain sources of distributions that differ from treatment under U.S. GAAP. Examples of such differences may include but are not limited to, for certain Funds, the treatment of periodic payments under interest rate swap contracts. Accordingly, among other consequences, it is possible that a Fund may not issue a Section 19 Notice in situations where a Funds financial statements prepared later and in accordance with U.S. GAAP and/or the final tax character of those distributions might later report that the sources of those distributions included capital gains and/or a return of capital. Please visit www.pimco.com for the most recent Section 19 Notice, if applicable, for additional information regarding the estimated composition of distributions. Final determination of a distributions tax character will be provided to shareholders when such information is available.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital at a Funds fiscal year end, if any, are reflected on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been recorded to paid in capital on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between distributable earnings (accumulated loss) and paid in capital on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities to more appropriately conform U.S. GAAP to tax characterizations of distributions.
(c) New Accounting Pronouncements and Regulatory Updates In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standards Update (ASU), ASU 2020-04, which provides optional guidance to ease the potential accounting burden associated with transitioning away from the London Interbank Offered Rate and
other reference rates that are expected to be discontinued. ASU 2020-04 is effective for certain reference rate-related contract modifications that occur during the period March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. In March 2021, the administrator for LIBOR announced the extension of the publication of a majority of the USD LIBOR settings to June 30, 2023. Management is continuously evaluating the potential effect a discontinuation of LIBOR could have on the Funds investments and has determined that it is unlikely the ASUs adoption will have a material impact on the Funds financial statements.
In October 2020, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) adopted a rule related to the use of derivatives, short sales, reverse repurchase agreements and certain other transactions by registered investment companies that rescinds and withdraws the guidance of the SEC and its staff regarding asset segregation and cover transactions that was applicable to the Funds as of the date of this report. Subject to certain exceptions, the rule requires funds that trade derivatives and other transactions that create future payment or delivery obligations to comply with a value-at-risk leverage limit and certain derivatives risk management program and reporting requirements. The rule went into effect on February 19, 2021. The compliance date for the new rule and the associated recordkeeping requirements is August 19, 2022. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of these changes on the financial statements.
In October 2020, the SEC adopted a rule regarding the ability of a fund to invest in other funds. The rule allows a fund to acquire shares of another fund in excess of certain limitations currently imposed by the Act without obtaining individual exemptive relief from the SEC, subject to certain conditions. The rule also includes the rescission of certain exemptive relief from the SEC and guidance from the SEC staff for funds to invest in other funds. The effective date for the rule was January 19, 2021, and the compliance date for the rule was January 19, 2022. Management has implemented changes in connection with the rule and has determined that there is no material impact to the Funds financial statements.
In December 2020, the SEC adopted a rule addressing fair valuation of fund investments. The new rule sets forth requirements for good faith determinations of fair value as well as for the performance of fair value determinations, including related oversight and reporting obligations. The new rule also defines readily available market quotations for purposes of the definition of value under the Act, and the SEC noted that this definition would apply in all contexts under the Act. The effective date for the rule was March 8, 2021. The compliance date for the new rule and the associated recordkeeping requirements is September 8, 2022. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of these changes on the financial statements.

3. INVESTMENT VALUATION AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
(a) Investment Valuation Policies The net asset value (NAV) of a Funds shares, is determined by dividing the total value of portfolio investments and other assets, less any liabilities, attributable to that Fund by the total number of shares outstanding of that Fund.
On each day that the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) is open, Fund shares are ordinarily valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern time) (NYSE Close). Information that becomes known to the Funds or their agents after the time as of which NAV has been calculated on a particular day will not generally be used to retroactively adjust the price of a security or the NAV determined earlier that day. If regular trading on the NYSE closes earlier than scheduled, each Fund reserves the right to either (i) calculate its NAV as of the earlier closing time or (ii) calculate its NAV as of the normally scheduled close of regular trading on the NYSE for that day. Each Fund generally does not calculate its NAV on days during which the NYSE is closed. However, if the NYSE is closed on a day it would normally be open for business, each Fund reserves the right to calculate its NAV as of the normally scheduled close of regular trading on the NYSE for that day or such other time that the Fund may determine.
For purposes of calculating NAV, portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are valued at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of official closing prices or the last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from established market makers or prices (including evaluated prices) supplied by the Funds approved pricing services, quotation reporting systems and other third-party sources (together, Pricing Services). The Funds will normally use pricing data for domestic equity securities received shortly after the NYSE Close and do not normally take into account trading, clearances or settlements that take place after the NYSE Close. If market value pricing is used, a foreign (non-U.S.) equity security traded on a foreign exchange or on more than one exchange is typically valued using pricing information from the exchange considered by PIMCO to be the primary exchange. A foreign (non-U.S.) equity security will be valued as of the close of trading on the foreign exchange, or the NYSE Close, if the NYSE Close occurs before the end of trading on the foreign exchange. Domestic and foreign (non-U.S.) fixed income securities, non-exchange traded derivatives, and equity options are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or Pricing Services using such data reflecting the principal markets for those securities. Prices obtained from Pricing Services may be based on, among other things, information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed
income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Exchange-traded options, except equity options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange, quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers or pricing services. Swap agreements are valued on the basis of market-based prices supplied by Pricing Services or quotes obtained from brokers and dealers. A Funds investments in open-end management investment companies, other than exchange-traded funds, are valued at the NAVs of such investments.
Investments for which market quotes or market based valuations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Funds Boards of Trustees (the Board) or persons acting at their direction. The Board has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for applying the fair valuation methods. In the event that market quotes or market based valuations are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to a Board approved valuation method, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Board. Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/ask information, indicative market quotations (Broker Quotes), Pricing Services prices), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the NYSE Close, that materially affect the values of a Funds securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated, to the Manager, the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of a Funds securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be reevaluated in light of such significant events.
When a Fund uses fair valuation to determine the value of a portfolio security or other asset for purposes of calculating its NAV, such investments will not be priced on the basis of quotes from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board or persons acting at their direction believe reflects fair value. Fair valuation may require subjective determinations about the value of a security. While the Funds policy is intended to result in a calculation of a Funds NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing, a Fund cannot ensure that fair values determined by the Board or persons acting at their direction would accurately reflect the price that a Fund could obtain for a security if it
72 | PIMCO CLOSED-END FUNDS |
June 30, 2022 | (Unaudited) |
were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing (for instance, in a forced or distressed sale). The prices used by a Fund may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold.
(b) Fair Value Hierarchy U.S. GAAP describes fair value as the price that a Fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. It establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods and requires disclosure of the fair value hierarchy, separately for each major category of assets and liabilities, that segregates fair value measurements into levels (Level 1, 2, or 3). The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. Levels 1, 2, and 3 of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:
∎ | Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets or exchanges for identical assets and liabilities. |
∎ | Level 2 Significant other observable inputs, which may include, but are not limited to, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market corroborated inputs. |
∎ | Level 3 Significant unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available, which may include assumptions made by the Board or persons acting at their direction that are used in determining the fair value of investments. |
In accordance with the requirements of U.S. GAAP, the amounts of transfers into and out of Level 3, if material, are disclosed in the Notes to Schedule of Investments for each respective Fund.
For fair valuations using significant unobservable inputs, U.S. GAAP requires a reconciliation of the beginning to ending balances for reported fair values that presents changes attributable to realized gain (loss), unrealized appreciation (depreciation), purchases and sales, accrued discounts (premiums), and transfers into and out of the Level 3 category during the period. The end of period value is used for the transfers between Levels of a Funds assets and liabilities. Additionally, U.S. GAAP requires quantitative information regarding the significant unobservable inputs used in the determination of fair value of assets or liabilities categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. In accordance with the requirements of U.S. GAAP, a fair value hierarchy, and if material, a Level 3 reconciliation and details of significant unobservable inputs, have been included in the Notes to Schedule of Investments for each respective Fund.
(c) Valuation Techniques and the Fair Value Hierarchy Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 trading assets and trading liabilities, at fair value The valuation methods (or techniques) and significant inputs used in determining the fair values of portfolio securities or other assets and liabilities categorized as Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Fixed income securities including corporate, convertible and municipal bonds and notes, U.S. government agencies, U.S. treasury obligations, sovereign issues, bank loans, convertible preferred securities and non-U.S. bonds are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or Pricing Services that use broker-dealer quotations, reported trades or valuation estimates from their internal pricing models. The Pricing Services internal models use inputs that are observable such as issuer details, interest rates, yield curves, prepayment speeds, credit risks/spreads, default rates and quoted prices for similar assets. Securities that use similar valuation techniques and inputs as described above are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Fixed income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis or as a repurchase commitment in a sale-buyback transaction are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date and are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
When a fair valuation method is applied by PIMCO that uses significant unobservable inputs, investments will be priced by a method that the Board or persons acting at their direction believe reflects fair value and are categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Short-term debt instruments (such as commercial paper) having a remaining maturity of 60 days or less may be valued at amortized cost, so long as the amortized cost value of such short-term debt instruments is approximately the same as the fair value of the instrument as determined without the use of amortized cost valuation. These securities are categorized as Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy depending on the source of the base price.
4. SECURITIES AND OTHER INVESTMENTS
Investments in Securities
The Funds may utilize the investments and strategies described below to the extent permitted by each Funds respective investment policies.
Restricted Investments are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale and may generally be sold privately, but may be required to be registered or exempted from such registration before being sold to the public. Private placement securities are generally considered to be restricted except for those securities traded between qualified institutional investors under the provisions of Rule 144A of the
SEMIANNUAL REPORT | | | JUNE 30, 2022 | 73 |
Notes to Financial Statements | (Cont.) |
Securities Act of 1933. Disposal of restricted investments may involve time-consuming negotiations and expenses, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult to achieve. Restricted investments held by the Funds as of June 30, 2022, as applicable, are disclosed in the Notes to Schedules of Investments.
Securities Issued by U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises are obligations of and, in certain cases, guaranteed by, the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities. Some U.S. Government securities, such as Treasury bills, notes and bonds, and securities guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association, are supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government; others, such as those of the Federal Home Loan Banks, are supported by the right of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Department of the Treasury (the U.S. Treasury); and others, such as those of the Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA or Fannie Mae), are supported by the discretionary authority of the U.S. Government to purchase the agencys obligations. U.S. Government securities may include zero coupon securities which do not distribute interest on a current basis and tend to be subject to a greater risk than interest-paying securities of similar maturities.
Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include FNMA and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC or Freddie Mac). FNMA is a government-sponsored corporation. FNMA purchases conventional (i.e., not insured or guaranteed by any government agency) residential mortgages from a list of approved seller/servicers which include state and federally chartered savings and loan associations, mutual savings banks, commercial banks and credit unions and mortgage bankers. Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA, but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC issues Participation Certificates (PCs), which are pass-through securities, each representing an undivided interest in a pool of residential mortgages. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but PCs are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. Instead, they are supported only by the discretionary authority of the U.S. Government to purchase the agencys obligations.
When-Issued Transactions are purchases or sales made on a when-issued basis. These transactions are made conditionally because a security, although authorized, has not yet been issued in the market. Transactions to purchase or sell securities on a when-issued basis involve a commitment by a Fund to purchase or sell these securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. A Fund may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a realized gain (loss).
5. BORROWINGS AND OTHER FINANCING TRANSACTIONS
The Funds may enter into the borrowings and other financing transactions described below to the extent permitted by each Funds respective investment policies.
The following disclosures contain information on a Funds ability to lend or borrow cash or securities to the extent permitted under the Act, which may be viewed as borrowing or financing transactions by a Fund. The location of these instruments in each Funds financial statements is described below.
(a) Repurchase Agreements Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, a Fund purchases an underlying debt obligation (collateral) subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and a Fund to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. In an open maturity repurchase agreement, there is no pre-determined repurchase date and the agreement can be terminated by a Fund or counterparty at any time. The underlying securities for all repurchase agreements are held by a Funds custodian or designated subcustodians under tri-party repurchase agreements, and in certain instances will remain in custody with the counterparty. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Repurchase agreements, if any, including accrued interest, are included on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Interest earned is recorded as a component of interest income on the Statements of Operations. In periods of increased demand for collateral, the Fund may pay a fee for the receipt of collateral, which may result in interest expense to a Fund.
(b) Tender Option Bond Transactions In a tender option bond transaction (TOB), a tender option bond trust (TOB Trust) issues floating rate certificates (TOB Floater) and residual interest certificates (TOB Residual) and utilizes the proceeds of such issuances to purchase a fixed rate municipal bond (Fixed Rate Bond) that is either owned or identified by the Fund. The TOB Floater is generally issued to third party investors (typically a money market fund) and the TOB Residual is generally issued to the Fund that sold or identified the Fixed Rate Bond. The TOB Trust divides the income stream provided by the Fixed Rate Bond to create two securities, the TOB Floater, which is a short-term security, and the TOB Residual, which is a longer-term security. The interest rates payable on the TOB Residual issued to the Fund bear an inverse relationship to the interest rate on the TOB Floater. The interest rate on the TOB Floater is reset by a remarketing process typically every 7 to 35 days. After income is paid on the TOB Floater at current rates, the residual income from the Fixed Rate Bond goes to the TOB Residual. Therefore, rising short-term rates result in lower income for the TOB Residual, and vice versa. In the case of a TOB Trust that utilizes the cash received (less transaction expenses) from the issuance of the TOB Floater
74 | PIMCO CLOSED-END FUNDS |
June 30, 2022 | (Unaudited) |
and TOB Residual to purchase the Fixed Rate Bond from the Fund, the Fund may then invest the cash received in additional securities, generating leverage for the Fund. Other PIMCO-managed accounts may also contribute municipal bonds to a TOB Trust into which the Fund has contributed Fixed Rate Bonds. If multiple PIMCO-managed accounts participate in the same TOB Trust, the economic rights and obligations under the TOB Residual will be shared among the funds ratably in proportion to their participation in the TOB Trust.
The TOB Residual may be more volatile and less liquid than other municipal bonds of comparable maturity. In most circumstances the TOB Residual holder bears substantially all of the underlying Fixed Rate Bonds downside investment risk and also benefits from any appreciation in the value of the underlying Fixed Rate Bond. Investments in a TOB Residual typically will involve greater risk than investments in Fixed Rate Bonds.
A TOB Residual held by a Fund provides the Fund with the right to: (i) cause the holders of the TOB Floater to tender their notes at par, and (ii) cause the sale of the Fixed Rate Bond held by the TOB Trust, thereby collapsing the TOB Trust. TOB Trusts are generally supported by a liquidity facility provided by a third party bank or other financial institution (the Liquidity Provider) that provides for the purchase of TOB Floaters that cannot be remarketed. The holders of the TOB Floaters have the right to tender their certificates in exchange for payment of par plus accrued interest on a periodic basis (typically weekly) or on the occurrence of certain mandatory tender events. The tendered TOB Floaters are remarketed by a remarketing agent, which is typically an affiliated entity of the Liquidity Provider. If the TOB Floaters cannot be remarketed, the TOB Floaters are purchased by the TOB Trust either from the proceeds of a loan from the Liquidity Provider or from a liquidation of the Fixed Rate Bond.
The TOB Trust may also be collapsed without the consent of a Fund, as the TOB Residual holder, upon the occurrence of certain tender option termination events (or TOTEs) as defined in the TOB Trust agreements. Such termination events typically include the bankruptcy or default of the Fixed Rate Bond, a substantial downgrade in credit quality of the Fixed Rate Bond, or a judgment or ruling that interest on the Fixed Rate Bond is subject to Federal income taxation. Upon the occurrence of a termination event, the TOB Trust would generally be liquidated in full with the proceeds typically applied first to any accrued fees owed to the trustee, remarketing agent and liquidity provider, and then to the holders of the TOB Floater up to par plus accrued interest owed on the TOB Floater and a portion of gain share, if any, with the balance paid out to the TOB Residual holder. In the case of a mandatory termination event, after the payment of fees, the TOB Floater holders would be paid before the TOB Residual holders (i.e., the Funds). In contrast, in the case of a TOTE, after payment of fees, the
TOB Floater holders and the TOB Residual holders would be paid pro rata in proportion to the respective face values of their certificates.
If there are insufficient proceeds from the liquidation of the TOB Trust, the party that would bear the losses would depend upon whether a Fund holds a non-recourse TOBs Residual or a recourse TOBs Residual. If a Fund holds a non-recourse TOBs Residual, the Liquidity Provider or holders of the TOBs Floaters would bear the losses on those securities and there would be no recourse to the Funds assets. If a Fund holds a recourse TOBs Residual, the Fund (and, indirectly, holders of the Funds Common Shares) would typically bear the losses. In particular, if a Fund holds a recourse TOBs Residual, it will typically have entered into an agreement pursuant to which the Fund would be required to pay to the Liquidity Provider the difference between the purchase price of any TOBs Floaters put to the Liquidity Provider by holders of the TOBs Floaters and the proceeds realized from the remarketing of those TOBs Floaters or the sale of the assets in the TOBs Issuer. Each Fund may invest in both non-recourse and recourse TOBs Residuals to leverage its portfolio.
Each Funds transfer of Fixed Rate Bonds to a TOB Trust is considered a secured borrowing for financial reporting purposes. The cash received by the TOB Trust from the sale of the TOB Floaters, less certain transaction expenses, is paid to a Fund. A Fund typically invests the cash received in additional municipal bonds. The Funds account for the transactions described above as secured borrowings by including the Fixed Rate Bonds in their Schedules of Investments, and account for the TOB Floater as a liability under the caption Payable for tender option bond floating rate certificates in the Funds Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Interest income, including amortization and accretion of premiums and discounts, from the underlying municipal bonds is recorded by each Fund on an accrual basis and is shown as interest on the Statements of Operations. Interest expense incurred on the secured borrowing is shown as interest expense on the Statements of Operations.
The Funds may also purchase TOB Residuals in a secondary market transaction without transferring a fixed rate municipal bond into a TOB Trust. Such transactions are not accounted for as secured borrowings but rather as a security purchase with the TOB Residual being included in the Schedule of Investments.
In December 2013, regulators finalized rules implementing Section 619 (the Volcker Rule) and Section 941 (the Risk Retention Rules) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. Both the Volcker Rule and the Risk Retention Rules apply to tender option bond programs. The Volcker Rule precludes banking entities from (i) sponsoring or acquiring interests in the trusts used to hold a municipal bond in the creation of TOB Trusts; and (ii) continuing to service or maintain relationships with existing programs involving TOB Trusts to the same extent and in the same capacity as existing
SEMIANNUAL REPORT | | | JUNE 30, 2022 | 75 |
Notes to Financial Statements | (Cont.) |
programs. The Risk Retention Rules require the sponsor to a TOB Trust (e.g., a Fund) to retain at least five percent of the credit risk of the underlying assets supporting to the TOB Trusts municipal bonds. The Risk Retention Rules may adversely affect a Funds ability to engage in tender option bond trust transactions or increase the costs of such transactions in certain circumstances.
In response to these rules, industry participants explored various structuring alternatives for TOB Trusts established after December 31, 2013 and TOB Trusts established prior to December 31, 2013 (Legacy TOB Trusts) and agreed on a new tender option bond structure in which the Funds hire service providers to assist with establishing, structuring and sponsoring a TOB Trust. Service providers to a TOB Trust, such as administrators, liquidity providers, trustees and remarketing agents act at the direction of, and as agent of, the Funds as the TOB residual holders.
The Funds have restructured their Legacy TOB Trusts in conformity with regulatory guidelines. Under the new TOB Trust structure, the Liquidity Provider or remarketing agent will no longer purchase the tendered TOB Floaters, even in the event of failed remarketing. This may increase the likelihood that a TOB Trust will need to be collapsed and liquidated
in order to purchase the tendered TOB Floaters. The TOB Trust may draw upon a loan from the Liquidity Provider to purchase the tendered TOB Floaters. Any loans made by the Liquidity Provider will be secured by the purchased TOB Floaters held by the TOB Trust and will be subject to an interest rate agreed upon with the liquidity provider.
For the period ended June 30, 2022, the Funds average leverage outstanding from the use of TOB transactions and the daily weighted average interest rate, including fees, were as follows:

California State-Specific Risk is the risk that by concentrating its investments in California Municipal Bonds, the Fund may be affected significantly by economic, regulatory or political developments affecting the ability of California issuers to pay interest or repay principal.
Call Risk is the risk that an issuer may exercise its right to redeem a fixed income security earlier than expected (a call). Issuers may call outstanding securities prior to their maturity for a number of reasons (e.g., declining interest rates, changes in credit spreads and improvements in the issuers credit quality). If an issuer calls a security that the Fund has invested in, the Fund may not recoup the full amount of its initial investment and may be forced to reinvest in lower-yielding securities, securities with greater credit risks or securities with other, less favorable features.
Counterparty Risk is the risk that the Fund will be subject to credit risk with respect to the counterparties to the derivative contracts and other instruments entered into by the Fund or held by special purpose or structured vehicles in which the Fund invests. If a counterparty becomes bankrupt or otherwise fails to perform its obligations under a derivative contract due to financial difficulties, the Fund may experience significant delays in obtaining any recovery (including recovery of any collateral it has provided to the counterparty) in a dissolution, assignment for the benefit of creditors, liquidation, winding-up, bankruptcy, or other analogous proceeding.
Credit Risk is the risk that the Fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a fixed-income security, or the counterparty to a derivatives contract, repurchase agreement or a loan of portfolio securities, is unable or unwilling, or is perceived (whether by market participants, rating agencies, pricing services or otherwise) as unable or unwilling, to meet its financial obligations. Measures such as average
credit quality may not accurately reflect the true credit risk of the Fund. This is especially the case if the Fund consists of securities with widely varying credit ratings.
Cyber Security Risk As the use of technology has become more prevalent in the course of business, the Funds have become potentially more susceptible to operational and information security risks resulting from breaches in cyber security. A breach in cyber security refers to both intentional and unintentional cyber events that may, among other things, cause a Fund to lose proprietary information, suffer data corruption and/or destruction or lose operational capacity, result in the unauthorized release or other misuse of confidential information, or otherwise disrupt normal business operations. Cyber security failures or breaches may result in financial losses to a Fund and its shareholders. These failures or breaches may also result in disruptions to business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses; interference with a Funds ability to calculate its net asset value, process shareholder transactions or otherwise transact business with shareholders; impediments to trading; violations of applicable privacy and other laws; regulatory fines; penalties; reputational damage; reimbursement or other compensation costs; additional compliance and cyber security risk management costs and other adverse consequences. In addition, substantial costs may be incurred in order to prevent any cyber incidents in the future.
Derivatives Risk is the risk of investing in derivative instruments (such as futures, swaps and structured securities), including leverage, liquidity, interest rate, market, credit, management , counterparty, operational and legal risks and valuation complexity. Changes in the value of a derivative may not correlate perfectly with, and may be more sensitive to market events than, the underlying asset, rate or index, and the Fund could lose more than the initial amount invested. The Funds use of derivatives may result in losses to the Fund, a reduction in the Funds returns and/or
SEMIANNUAL REPORT | | | JUNE 30, 2022 | 77 |
Notes to Financial Statements | (Cont.) |
increased volatility. Over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives are also subject to the risk that a counterparty to the transaction will not fulfill its contractual obligations to the other party, as many of the protections afforded to centrally-cleared derivative transactions might not be available for OTC derivatives. The primary credit risk on derivatives that are exchange-traded or traded through a central clearing counterparty resides with the Funds clearing broker, or the clearinghouse itself.
High Yield Securities Risk is the risk that high yield securities and unrated securities of similar credit quality (commonly known as junk bonds) are subject to greater levels of credit, call and liquidity risks. High yield securities are considered primarily speculative with respect to the issuers continuing ability to make principal and interest payments, and may be more volatile than higher-rated securities of similar maturity.
Inflation/Deflation Risk is the risk that the value of assets or income from the Funds investments will be worth less in the future as inflation decreases the value of payments at future dates. As inflation increases, the real value of the Funds portfolio could decline. Deflation Risk is the risk that prices throughout the economy decline over time. Deflation may have an adverse effect on the creditworthiness of issuers and may make issuer default more likely, which may result in a decline in the value of the Funds portfolio and common shares.
Interest Rate Risk is the risk that fixed income securities and other instruments in the Funds portfolio will decline in value because of an increase in interest rates; a fund with a longer average portfolio duration will be more sensitive to changes in interest rates than a fund with a short average portfolio duration.
Issuer Risk is the risk that the value of a security may decline for a reason directly related to the issuer, such as management performance, financial leverage and reduced demand for the issuers goods or services.
Leverage Risk is the risk that certain transactions of the Fund, such as reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls and/or borrowings (as well as from any future issuance of preferred shares), delayed delivery or forward commitment transactions, or derivative instruments, may give rise to leverage, magnifying gains and losses and causing the Fund to be more volatile than if it had not been leveraged. This means that leverage entails a heightened risk of loss.
Distribution Risk is the risk that, to the extent a Fund seeks to maintain a level distribution rate, the Funds distribution rate may be affected by numerous factors, including but not limited to changes in realized and projected market returns, fluctuations in market interest rates, Fund performance, and other factors. For instance, during periods of low or declining interest rates, the Funds distributable income and dividend levels may decline for many reasons. There can be no assurance that a change in market conditions or other factors will
not result in a change in the Funds distribution rate or that the rate will be sustainable in the future.
Liquidity Risk is the risk that a particular investment may be difficult to purchase or sell and that the Fund may be unable to sell illiquid investments at an advantageous time or price or possibly require the Fund to dispose of other investments at unfavorable times or prices in order to satisfy its obligations, which could prevent the Fund from taking advantage of other investment opportunities. Additionally, the market for certain investments may become illiquid under adverse market or economic conditions independent of any specific adverse changes in the conditions of a particular issuer.
Management Risk is the risk that the investment techniques and risk analyses applied by PIMCO will not produce the desired results and that actual or potential conflicts of interest, legislative, regulatory, or tax restrictions, policies or developments may affect the investment techniques available to PIMCO and the individual portfolio manager in connection with managing the Fund and may cause PIMCO to restrict or prohibit participation in certain investments. There is no guarantee that the investment objective of the Fund will be achieved.
Market Risk is the risk that the value of securities owned by the Fund may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably due to factors affecting securities markets generally or particular industries.
Market Disruption Risk A Fund is 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 Fund to lose value. These events can also impair the technology and other operational systems upon which a Funds service providers, including PIMCO as a Funds investment adviser, rely, and could otherwise disrupt a Funds service providers ability to fulfill their obligations to a Fund. For example, 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 a Fund holds, and may adversely affect a Funds investments and operations. Please see the Important Information section for additional discussion of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Municipal Bond Risk is the risk that the Fund may be affected significantly by the economic, regulatory or political developments affecting the ability of issuers of debt securities whose interest is, in the opinion of bond counsel for the issuer at the time of issuance, exempt from federal income tax (Municipal Bonds) to pay interest or repay principal.
78 | PIMCO CLOSED-END FUNDS |
June 30, 2022 | (Unaudited) |
Municipal Project-Specific Risk is the risk that the Fund may be more sensitive to adverse economic, business or political developments if it invests a substantial portion of its assets in the bonds of specific projects (such as those relating to education, health care, housing, transportation, and utilities), industrial development bonds, or in bonds from issuers in a single state.
New York State-Specific Risk is the risk that by concentrating its investments in New York Municipal Bonds, the Fund maybe affected significantly by economic, regulatory or political developments affecting the ability of New York issuers to pay interest or repay principal.
Non-Diversification Risk is the risk of focusing investments in a small number of issuers, including being more susceptible to risks associated with a single economic, political or regulatory occurrence than a more diversified portfolio might be. Funds that are non-diversified may invest a greater percentage of their assets in the securities of a single issuer (such as bonds issued by a particular state) than funds that are diversified.
Operational Risk An investment in a Fund, like any fund, can involve operational risks arising from factors such as processing errors, human errors, inadequate or failed internal or external processes, failures in systems and technology, changes in personnel and errors caused by third-party service providers. The occurrence of any of these failures, errors or breaches could result in a loss of information, regulatory scrutiny, reputational damage or other events, any of which could have a material adverse effect on a Fund. While a Fund seeks to minimize such events through controls and oversight, there may still be failures that could cause losses to the Fund.
Portfolio Turnover Risk is the risk that a high portfolio turnover will result in greater expenses to the Fund, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may result in realization of taxable capital gains (including short-term capital gains, which are generally taxed to shareholders at ordinary income tax rates when distributed net of short-term capital losses and net long-term capital losses) and may adversely affect the Funds after-tax returns.
Private Placements Risk is the risk that securities received in a private placement may be subject to strict restrictions on resale, and there may be no liquid secondary market or ready purchaser for such securities. Therefore, the Fund may be unable to dispose of such securities when it desires to do so, or at the most favorable time or price. Private placements may also raise valuation risks.
Regulatory Changes Risk is the risk that financial entities, such as investment companies and investment advisers, are generally subject to extensive government regulation and intervention. Government regulation and/or intervention may change the way the Fund is
regulated, affect the expenses incurred directly by the Fund and the value of its investments, and limit and /or preclude the Funds ability to achieve its investment objectives. Government regulation may change frequently and may have significant adverse consequences. The Fund and the Investment Manager have historically been eligible for exemptions from certain regulations. However, there is no assurance that the Fund and the Investment Manager will continue to be eligible for such exemptions.
Regulatory Risk LIBOR is the risk related to the anticipated discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Certain instruments held by the Fund rely in some fashion upon LIBOR. Although the transition process away from LIBOR has become increasingly well-defined in advance of the anticipated discontinuation date, there remains uncertainty regarding the nature of any replacement rate, and any potential effects of the transition away from LIBOR on the Fund or on certain instruments in which the Fund invests can be difficult to ascertain. The transition process may involve, among other things, increased volatility or illiquidity in markets for instruments that currently rely on LIBOR and may result in a reduction in the value of certain instruments held by the Fund.
Reinvestment Risk is the risk that income from the Funds portfolio will decline if and when the Fund invests the proceeds from matured, traded or called debt obligations at market interest rates that are below the portfolios current earnings rate. The Fund also may choose to sell higher yielding portfolio securities and to purchase lower yielding securities to achieve greater portfolio diversification, because the portfolio managers believe the current holdings are overvalued or for other investment-related reasons.
Segregation and Coverage Risk is the risk that certain portfolio management techniques may be considered senior securities unless steps are taken to segregate the Funds assets or otherwise cover its obligations. To avoid having these instruments considered senior securities, the Fund may segregate liquid assets with a value equal (on a daily mark-to-market basis) to its obligations under these types of leveraged transactions, enter into offsetting transactions or otherwise cover such transactions. The Fund may be unable to use such segregated assets for certain other purposes, which could result in the Fund earning a lower return on its portfolio than it might otherwise earn if it did not have to segregate those assets in respect of, or otherwise cover, such portfolio positions. To the extent the Funds assets are segregated or committed as cover, it could limit the Funds investment flexibility. Except as otherwise described in the principal investment strategies for the Fund, the Fund will no longer be required to engage in asset segregation or cover techniques as of August 19, 2022.
Short Exposure Risk is the risk of entering into short sales, including the potential loss of more money than the actual cost of the
SEMIANNUAL REPORT | | | JUNE 30, 2022 | 79 |
Notes to Financial Statements | (Cont.) |
investment, and the risk that the third party to the short sale will not fulfill its contractual obligations, causing a loss to the Fund.
Structured Investments Risk is the risk that the Funds investment in structured products, including, structured notes, credit-linked notes and other types of structured products bear the risks of the underlying investments, index or reference obligation and are subject to counterparty risk. The Fund may have the right to receive payments only from the structured product, and generally does not have direct rights against the issuer or the entity that sold the assets to be securitized. Structured products generally entail risks associated with derivative instruments.
Tax Risk is the risk that if, in any year, the Fund were to fail to qualify for treatment as a regulated investment company under the Tax Code, and were ineligible to or did not otherwise cure such failure, the Fund would be subject to tax on its taxable income at corporate rates and, when such income is distributed, shareholders would be subject to a further tax to the extent of the Funds current or accumulated earnings and profits.
Valuation Risk is the risk that fair value pricing used when market quotations are not readily available may not result in adjustments to the prices of securities or other assets, or that fair value pricing may not reflect actual market value. It is possible that the fair value determined in good faith for a security or other asset will be materially different from quoted or published prices, from the prices used by others for the same security or other asset and/or from the value that actually could be or is realized upon the sale of that security or other asset.
(b) Other Risks
In general, a Fund may be subject to additional risks, including, but not limited to, risks related to government regulation and intervention in financial markets, operational risks, risks associated with financial, economic and global market disruptions, and cybersecurity risks. Please see the Important Information section of this report for additional discussion of certain regulatory and market developments that may impact a Funds performance.
7. MASTER NETTING ARRANGEMENTS
A Fund may be subject to various netting arrangements (Master Agreements) with select counterparties. Master Agreements govern the terms of certain transactions, and are intended to reduce the counterparty risk associated with relevant transactions by specifying credit protection mechanisms and providing standardization that is intended to improve legal certainty. Each type of Master Agreement governs certain types of transactions. Different types of transactions may be traded out of different legal entities or affiliates of a particular organization, resulting in the need for multiple agreements with a single counterparty. As the Master Agreements are specific to unique operations of different asset types, they allow a Fund to close out and net its total exposure to a counterparty in the event of a default with respect to all the transactions governed under a single Master
Agreement with a counterparty. For financial reporting purposes the Statements of Assets and Liabilities generally present derivative assets and liabilities on a gross basis, which reflects the full risks and exposures prior to netting.
Master Agreements can also help limit counterparty risk by specifying collateral posting arrangements at pre-arranged exposure levels. Under most Master Agreements, collateral is routinely transferred if the total net exposure to certain transactions (net of existing collateral already in place) governed under the relevant Master Agreement with a counterparty in a given account exceeds a specified threshold, which typically ranges from zero to $250,000 depending on the counterparty and the type of Master Agreement. United States Treasury Bills and U.S. dollar cash are generally the preferred forms of collateral, although other securities may be used depending on the terms outlined in the applicable Master Agreement. Securities and cash pledged as collateral are reflected as assets on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as either a component of Investments at value (securities) or Deposits with counterparty. Cash collateral received is not typically held in a segregated account and as such is reflected as a liability on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as Deposits from counterparty. The market value of any securities received as collateral is not reflected as a component of NAV. A Funds overall exposure to counterparty risk can change substantially within a short period, as it is affected by each transaction subject to the relevant Master Agreement.
Master Repurchase Agreements and Global Master Repurchase Agreements (individually and collectively Master Repo Agreements) govern repurchase, reverse repurchase, and certain sale-buyback transactions between a Fund and select counterparties. Master Repo Agreements maintain provisions for, among other things, initiation, income payments, events of default, and maintenance of collateral. The market value of transactions under the Master Repo Agreement, collateral pledged or received, and the net exposure by counterparty as of period end are disclosed in the Notes to Schedules of Investments.
International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreements and Credit Support Annexes (ISDA Master Agreements) govern bilateral OTC derivative transactions entered into by a Fund with select counterparties. ISDA Master Agreements maintain provisions for general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral posting and events of default or termination. Events of termination include conditions that may entitle counterparties to elect to terminate early and cause settlement of all outstanding transactions under the applicable ISDA Master Agreement. Any election to terminate early could be material to the financial statements. The ISDA Master Agreement may contain additional provisions that add counterparty protection beyond coverage of existing daily exposure if the counterparty has a decline in credit quality below a predefined level
80 | PIMCO CLOSED-END FUNDS |
June 30, 2022 | (Unaudited) |
or as required by regulation. Similarly, if required by regulation, a Funds may be required to post additional collateral beyond coverage of daily exposure. These amounts, if any, may (or if required by law, will) be segregated with a third-party custodian. To the extent a Fund is required by regulation to post additional collateral beyond coverage of daily exposure, it could potentially incur costs, including in procuring eligible assets to meet collateral requirements, associated with such posting. The market value of OTC financial derivative instruments, collateral received or pledged, and net exposure by counterparty as of period end are disclosed in the Notes to Schedules of Investments.
8. FEES AND EXPENSES
(a) Management Fee Pursuant to the Investment Management Agreement with PIMCO (the Agreement), and subject to the supervision of the Board, PIMCO is responsible for providing to each Fund investment guidance and policy direction in connection with the management of the Fund, including oral and written research, analysis, advice, and statistical and economic data and information. In addition, pursuant to the Agreement and subject to the general supervision of the Board, PIMCO, at its expense, provides or causes to be furnished most other supervisory and administrative services the Funds require, including but not limited to, expenses of most third-party service providers (e.g., audit, custodial, legal, transfer agency, printing) and other expenses, such as those associated with insurance, proxy solicitations and mailings for shareholder meetings, NYSE listing and related fees, tax services, valuation services and other services the Funds require for their daily operations.
Pursuant to the Agreement, PIMCO receives an annual fee, payable monthly, at the annual rates shown in the table below:
Fund Name | Annual Rate(1) |

(1) | Management fees calculated based on the Funds average daily NAV (including daily net assets attributable to any preferred shares of the Fund that may be outstanding). |
(b) Fund Expenses Each Fund bears other expenses, which may vary and affect the total level of expenses paid by shareholders, such as (i) salaries and other compensation or expenses, including travel expenses of any of the Funds executive officers and employees, if any, who are not officers, directors, shareholders, members, partners or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees, if any, levied against the Fund; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other
portfolio transaction expenses incurred by or for the Fund (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of outside legal counsel or third-party consultants retained in connection with reviewing, negotiating and structuring specialized loans and other investments made by the Fund, subject to specific or general authorization by the Funds Board (for example, so-called broken-deal costs (e.g., fees, costs, expenses and liabilities, including, for example, due diligence-related fees, costs, expenses and liabilities, with respect to unconsummated investments))); (iv) expenses of the Funds securities lending (if any), including any securities lending agent fees, as governed by a separate securities lending agreement; (v) costs, including interest expenses, of borrowing money or engaging in other types of leverage financing, including, without limitation, through the use by the Fund of reverse repurchase agreements, tender option bonds, bank borrowings and credit facilities; (vi) costs, including dividend and/or interest expenses and other costs (including, without limitation, offering and related legal costs, fees to brokers, fees to auction agents, fees to transfer agents, fees to ratings agencies and fees to auditors associated with satisfying ratings agency requirements for preferred shares or other securities issued by the Fund and other related requirements in the Funds organizational documents) associated with the Funds issuance, offering, redemption and maintenance of preferred shares, commercial paper or other senior securities for the purpose of incurring leverage; (vii) fees and expenses of any underlying funds or other pooled vehicles in which the Fund invests; (viii) dividend and interest expenses on short positions taken by the Fund; (ix) fees and expenses, including travel expenses, and fees and expenses of legal counsel retained for their benefit, of Trustees who are not officers, employees, partners, shareholders or members of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (x) extraordinary expenses, including extraordinary legal expenses, that may arise, including expenses incurred in connection with litigation, proceedings, other claims, and the legal obligations of the Fund to indemnify its Trustees, officers, employees, shareholders, distributors, and agents with respect thereto; (xi) organizational and offering expenses of the Fund, including with respect to share offerings, such as rights offerings and shelf offerings, following the Funds initial offering, and expenses associated with tender offers and other share repurchases and redemptions; and (xii) expenses of the Fund which are capitalized in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Each of the Trustees of the Funds who is not an interested person under Section 2(a)(19) of the Act, (the Independent Trustees) also serves as a trustee of a number of other closed-end funds for which PIMCO serves as investment manager (together with the Funds, the PIMCO Closed-End Funds), as well as PIMCO California Flexible Municipal Income Fund, PIMCO Flexible Emerging Markets Income Fund, PIMCO Flexible Credit Income Fund and PIMCO Flexible Municipal Income Fund, each a closed end management investment company managed by PIMCO that is operated as an interval fund (the PIMCO Interval Funds), and PIMCO Managed Accounts Trust,
SEMIANNUAL REPORT | | | JUNE 30, 2022 | 81 |
Notes to Financial Statements | (Cont.) |
an open-end management investment company with multiple series for which PIMCO serves as investment adviser and administrator (PMAT and, together with the PIMCO Closed-End Funds and the PIMCO Interval Funds, the PIMCO-Managed Funds). In addition, during the reporting period, each of the Independent Trustees (other than Mr Kittredge and Ms. Vandecruze) also served as a trustee of certain funds for which Allianz Global Investors U.S. LLC (AGI U.S.), an affiliate of PIMCO, served as investment manager.
On May 17, 2022, AGI U.S. pleaded guilty in connection with the proceeding United States of America v. Allianz Global Investors U.S. LLC. AGI U.S. is an indirect subsidiary of Allianz SE. The conduct resulting in the matter described above occurred entirely within AGI U.S. and did not involve PIMCO or any personnel of PIMCO. Nevertheless, because of the disqualifying conduct of AGI U.S., their affiliate, PIMCO would have been disqualified from serving as the investment adviser to the Funds in the absence of SEC exemptive relief. PIMCO has received exemptive relief from the SEC to permit PIMCO to continue serving as investment adviser for U.S.-registered investment companies, including the Funds.
The Funds pay no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Manager, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Funds from the Manager or its affiliates.
9. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Manager is a related party. Fees payable to this party are disclosed in Note 8, Fees and Expenses, and the accrued related party fee amounts are disclosed on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
10. GUARANTEES AND INDEMNIFICATIONS
Under each Funds organizational documents, each Trustee and officer is indemnified, to the extent permitted by the Act, against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal 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, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts.
11. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time a Fund has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by a Fund is known as portfolio turnover. Each Fund may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover may involve correspondingly greater transaction costs, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities, which are borne by the Fund. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates when distributed to shareholders). The transaction costs associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect a Funds performance. The portfolio turnover rates are reported in the Financial Highlights.

12. PREFERRED SHARES
(a) Auction-Rate Preferred Shares Each series of Auction-Rate Preferred Shares (ARPS) outstanding of each Fund has a liquidation preference of $25,000 per share plus any accumulated, unpaid dividends. Dividends are accumulated daily at an annual rate that is typically reset every seven days through auction procedures (or through default procedures in the event of failed auctions). Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, are paid at least annually.

Each Fund is subject to certain limitations and restrictions while ARPS are outstanding. Failure to comply with these limitations and restrictions could preclude a Fund from declaring or paying any dividends or distributions to common shareholders or repurchasing common shares and/or could trigger the mandatory redemption of ARPS at their liquidation preference plus any accumulated, unpaid dividends.
Auction-Rate Preferred shareholders of each Fund, who are entitled to one vote per share, generally vote together with the common
shareholders of the Fund but vote separately as a class to elect two Trustees of the Fund and on certain matters adversely affecting the rights of the ARPS.
Since mid-February 2008, holders of ARPS issued by the Funds have been directly impacted by a lack of liquidity, which has similarly affected ARPS holders in many of the nations closed-end funds. Since then, regularly scheduled auctions for ARPS issued by the Funds have consistently failed because of insufficient demand (bids to buy shares) to meet the supply (shares offered for sale) at each auction. In a
SEMIANNUAL REPORT | | | JUNE 30, 2022 | 83 |
Notes to Financial Statements | (Cont.) |
failed auction, ARPS holders cannot sell all, and may not be able to sell any, of their shares tendered for sale. While repeated auction failures have affected the liquidity for ARPS, they do not constitute a default or automatically alter the credit quality of the ARPS, and ARPS holders have continued to receive dividends at the defined maximum rate, as defined for the Funds in the table below.

The maximum rate is a function of short-term interest rates and is typically higher than the rate that would have otherwise been set through a successful auction. If the Funds ARPS auctions continue to fail and the maximum rate payable on the ARPS rises as a result of changes in short-term interest rates, returns for each Funds common shareholders could be adversely affected.
(b) Remarketable Variable Rate MuniFund Term Preferred Shares On September 18, 2018, each of PIMCO Municipal Income Fund, PIMCO Municipal Income Fund II, PIMCO Municipal Income Fund III, PIMCO California Municipal Income Fund, PIMCO California Municipal Income Fund II, PIMCO California Municipal Income Fund III and PIMCO New York Municipal Income Fund II (each, a RVMTP Fund and collectively,
the RVMTP Funds) issued a single series of Variable Rate MuniFund Term Preferred Shares, Series 2022 (the VMTP Shares).
On June 30, 2022, pursuant to the authority expressly vested in the Boards of Trustees of the RVMTP Funds, the Boards of Trustees of the RVMTP Funds authorized the redesignation (the Redesignation) of each Funds VMTP Shares as Remarketable Variable Rate MuniFund Term Preferred Shares, Series 2051 (the RVMTP Shares, and together with the ARPS, the Preferred Shares). Pursuant to such authority, the Redesignation occurred on July 14, 2021 (the Redesignation Date). As redesignated, the RVMTP Shares have a term of 30 years, subject to remarketing every three years and in certain other instances.
In the RVMTP Funds Statements of Assets and Liabilities, the RVMTP Shares aggregate liquidation preference is shown as a liability since they are considered debt of the issuer. Any costs directly related to the September 18, 2018 issuance of the VMTP Shares were considered debt issuance costs and have been amortized into interest expense as of the Redesignation Date. Any costs directly related to the Redesignation are considered debt issuance costs and are being amortized into interest expense on a straight-line basis through the Early Term Redemption Date (defined below). The liquidation value of the RVMTP Shares in each RVMTP Funds Statements of Assets and Liabilities is shown as a liability and represents its liquidation preference, which approximates fair value of the shares and is considered level 2 under the fair value hierarchy, less any unamortized debt issuance costs. The RVMTP Shares can be redeemed in whole or in part, at their liquidation preference of $100,000 per share plus any accumulated, unpaid dividends. No Preferred Shares were redeemed during the period ended June 30, 2022.
Dividends paid with respect to the RVMTP Shares, which are payable monthly, are treated as interest expense, are accrued daily and are reflected, with respect to the RVMTP Shares, as a component of interest expense in the Statements of Operations. For the period ended June 30, 2022, the amount of the RVMTP Shares outstanding, interest expense related to the dividends paid to RVMTP Shares (including amounts prior to and after the Redesignation) and the daily weighted average interest rate, including issuance costs, can be found in the table below.

Each RVMTP Fund, at its option, may designate special terms applicable to all of the outstanding RVMTP Shares for a certain period (a Special Terms Period) pursuant to a notice of special terms. Such special terms may differ from those provided in the current governing documents of the RVMTP Shares and may include, without limitation, changes to the dividend rate, dividend payment dates and redemption provisions; provided that such special terms do not affect the parity ranking of the RVMTP Shares to any other class or series of Preferred Shares then outstanding with respect to dividends or distribution of assets upon dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of the affairs of the RVMTP Fund. No Special Terms Period with respect to a series of RVMTP Shares will become effective unless certain conditions are satisfied, including that all of the RVMTP Shares in such series are remarketed (except with respect to any RVMTP Shares whose holders have elected to retain their RVMTP Shares for the Special Terms Period).
In addition, a Mandatory Tender Event will occur on each date that is (i) 20 business days before each three-year anniversary since the Redesignation Date (each an Early Term Redemption, and the date on which such occurs, an Early Term Redemption Date), (ii) the date an RVMTP Fund delivers a notice designating a Special Terms Period, and (iii) 20 business days before the end of a Special Terms Period (provided that no subsequent Special Terms Period is designated). Upon the occurrence of a Mandatory Tender Event, all RVMTP Shares will be subject to mandatory tender (subject to the holders election to retain their RVMTP Shares) and the RVMTP Fund will issue or cause to be issued a notice of mandatory tender to the holders of the RVMTP Shares for remarketing on the corresponding Mandatory Tender Date. If any RVMTP Shares subject to a Mandatory Tender Event upon an Early Term Redemption Date of the RVMTP Shares or upon the end of a Special Terms Period (each, an RVMTP Share Early Term Redemption Date) have not been either retained by the holders or remarketed by
the Mandatory Tender Date, the RVMTP Fund will redeem such RVMTP Shares on the RVMTP Share Early Term Redemption Date.
With respect to the Mandatory Tender Events described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, the corresponding Mandatory Tender Date means, respectively: (i) the date that is 180 calendar days following the Early Term Redemption Date, (ii) the date on which the related Special Terms Period becomes effective, and (iii) the last day of the related Special Terms Period (subject, in each case, to the holders election to retain their RVMTP Shares). No Mandatory Tender Event occurred during the period ended June 30, 2022.
Each RVMTP Fund is subject to certain limitations and restrictions while the RVMTP Shares are outstanding. Failure to comply with these limitations and restrictions could preclude an RVMTP Fund from declaring or paying any dividends or distributions to common shareholders or repurchasing common shares and/or could trigger the mandatory redemption of the RVMTP Shares at their liquidation preference plus any accumulated, unpaid dividends and other distributions. Any resulting suspension of payment of common share dividends may result in a tax penalty for the applicable RVMTP Fund and, in certain circumstances, the loss of treatment as a regulated investment company. Any such mandatory redemption will be conducted on a pro rata basis among each series of the RVMTP Shares and the ARPS based upon the proportion that the aggregate liquidation preference of any series bears to the aggregate liquidation preference of all outstanding series of such RVMTP Funds preferred shares. Under the terms of a purchase agreement between each RVMTP Fund and the investor in the RVMTP Shares, each RVMTP Fund is subject to various investment requirements. These requirements may be more restrictive than those to which the RVMTP Fund is otherwise subject in accordance with its investment objectives and policies. In addition, each RVMTP Fund is subject to certain restrictions on its
SEMIANNUAL REPORT | | | JUNE 30, 2022 | 85 |
Notes to Financial Statements | (Cont.) |
investments imposed by guidelines of the rating agencies that rate the RVMTP Shares, which guidelines may be changed by the applicable rating agency, in its sole discretion, from time to time. These guidelines may impose asset coverage or portfolio composition requirements that are more stringent than those imposed on the RVMTP Fund by the Act.
Ratings agencies may change their methodologies for evaluating and providing ratings for shares of closed-end funds at any time and in their sole discretion, which may affect the rating (if any) of an RVMTP Funds shares. Fitch Ratings published ratings criteria relating to closed-end funds on December 4, 2020, which effectively result in a rating cap of AA for debt and preferred stock issued by all closed-end funds and a rating cap of A for (i) debt and preferred shares issued by closed-end funds exposed to emerging market debt, below-investment-grade and unrated debt, structured securities and equity, and (ii) closed-end funds with material exposure to BBB category rated assets. The updated ratings criteria cap the credit rating of each RVMTP Funds RVMTP Shares at AA. Accordingly, on April 30, 2021, Fitch Ratings announced that it had downgraded to AA from AAA the long-term ratings assigned to each of the RVMTP Funds VMTP Shares. The long-term rating actions were driven by changes in the updated ratings criteria for closed-end funds rather than by any fundamental changes to the Funds credit profiles. In connection with the Redesignation, Fitch affirmed the AA long-term ratings assigned to each of the RVMTP Funds RVMTP Shares in April 2021. Fitch does not currently rate the Funds ARPS. In addition, future ratings downgrades by Moodys or Fitch, as applicable, may result in an increase to the Funds Preferred Shares dividend rates.
Each RVMTP Fund is required to maintain certain asset coverage with respect to all outstanding senior securities of the RVMTP Fund which are stocks for purposes of the Act, including the RVMTP Shares and ARPS, as set forth in such RVMTP Funds governing documents and the Act. One such requirement under the Act is that a RVMTP Fund is not permitted to declare or pay common share dividends unless immediately thereafter the RVMTP Fund has a minimum asset coverage ratio of 200% with respect to all outstanding senior securities of the Fund which are stocks for purposes of the Act after deducting the amount of such common share dividends. The asset coverage per share for each RVMTP Fund is reported in the Financial Highlights and is disclosed as the product of the asset coverage ratio as of period end and the current liquidation preference.
With respect to the payment of dividends and as to the distribution of assets of each RVMTP Fund, ARPS and RVMTP Shares rank on parity with each other, and are both senior in priority to the RVMTP Funds outstanding common shares. Holders of preferred shares of each RVMTP Fund, who are entitled to one vote per share, including holders of RVMTP Shares and ARPS, generally vote together as one class with the common shareholders of each RVMTP Fund, but preferred shareholders (RVMTP Shares and ARPS together) vote separately as a class to elect two Trustees of each Fund, as required by the Act, and on certain matters adversely affecting the rights of preferred shareholders. Under the Act, preferred shareholders, including holders of the RVMTP Shares and ARPS, are also entitled to elect a majority of the trustees at any time when dividends on the preferred shares are unpaid for two full years.
The RVMTP Shares Dividend Rate (as defined below) is determined over the course of a seven-day period, which generally commences each Thursday and ends the following Wednesday (the Rate Period). The dividends per share for RVMTP Shares for a given Rate Period are dependent on the RVMTP Share dividend rate for that Rate Period (the RVMTP Share Dividend Rate). The RVMTP Share Dividend Rate is equal to the greater of (i) the sum of the Index Rate1 plus the Applicable Spread2 for the Rate Period plus the Failed Remarketing Spread3, if any, and (ii) the sum of (a) the product of the Index Rate multiplied by the Applicable Multiplier4 for such Rate Period plus (b) 0.92% plus (c) the Failed Remarketing Spread, if any.5

1 | The Index Rate is determined by reference to a weekly, high-grade index comprised of seven-day, tax-exempt variable rate demand notes, generally the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association Municipal Swap Index. |
2 | The Applicable Spread for a Rate Period is a percentage per year that is based on the long-term rating most recently assigned by the applicable ratings agency to the RVMTP Shares. |
3 | In connection with a failed remarketing related to an Early Term Redemption, the Failed Remarketing Spread is (i) 0.75% for the first 59 days following the applicable Early Term Redemption Date, (ii) 1.00% for the 60th to the 89th day following such Early Term Redemption Date, (iii) 1.25% for the 90th to the 119th day following such Early Term Redemption Date, (iv) 1.50% for the 120th to the 149th day following such Early Term Redemption Date, and (v) 1.75% for the 150th day following such Early Term Redemption Date to the date of the associated mandatory redemption of the RVMTP Shares. In connection with a failed remarketing related to a Special Terms Period (each a Failed Special Terms Period Remarketing), the Failed Remarketing Spread means (i) for so long as two or more Failed Special Terms Period Remarketings have not occurred, 0.05%, and (ii) following the second occurrence of a Failed Special Terms Period Remarketing, 0.10% multiplied by the number of Failed Special Terms Period Remarketings that have occurred after the first Failed Special Terms Period Remarketing. |
4 | The Applicable Multiplier for a Rate Period is a percentage that is based on the long-term rating most recently assigned by the applicable ratings agency to the RVMTP Shares. |
5 | The Dividend Rate will in no event exceed 15% per year. |

13. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
The Funds are not named as defendants in any material litigation or arbitration proceedings and are not aware of any material litigation or claim pending or threatened against them.
The foregoing speaks only as of the date of this report.
14. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS
Each Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
A Fund may be subject to local withholding taxes, including those imposed on realized capital gains. Any applicable foreign capital gains tax is accrued daily based upon net unrealized gains, and may be payable following the sale of any applicable investments.
In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Manager has reviewed the Funds tax positions for all open tax years. As of June 30, 2022, the Funds have recorded no liability for net unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions they have taken or expect to take in future tax returns.
The Funds file U.S. federal, state, and local tax returns as required. The Funds tax returns are subject to examination by relevant tax authorities until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, which is generally three years after the filing of the tax return but which can be extended to six years in certain circumstances. Tax returns for open years have incorporated no uncertain tax positions that require a provision for income taxes.
Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, a fund is permitted to carry forward any new capital losses for an unlimited period. Additionally, such capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term under previous law.
As of their last fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, the Funds had the following post-effective capital losses with no expiration (amounts in thousands):

Approval of Investment Management Agreement | (Unaudited) |
PMF, PML, PMX, PNF, PNI, PCQ, PCK, PYN, PZC
The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), requires that the Board of Trustees (the Board or the Trustees), including a majority of the Trustees who are not interested persons, as that term is defined in the 1940 Act (the Independent Trustees), of each of PIMCO Municipal Income Fund (PMF), PIMCO Municipal Income Fund II (PML), PIMCO Municipal Income Fund III (PMX), PIMCO New York Municipal Income Fund (PNF), PIMCO New York Municipal Income Fund II (PNI), PIMCO New York Municipal Income Fund III (PYN), PIMCO California Municipal Income Fund (PCQ), PIMCO California Municipal Income Fund II (PCK) and PIMCO California Municipal Income Fund III (PZC) (each, a Fund and, collectively, the Funds), voting separately, annually approve the continuation of the Investment Management Agreement between each Fund and Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (PIMCO) (each, an Agreement and, collectively, the Agreements). At an in-person meeting held on June 15-16, 2022 (the Approval Meeting), the Board, including the Independent Trustees, considered and unanimously approved the continuation of each Agreement for an additional one-year period commencing on August 1, 2022.
In addition to the Approval Meeting, the Contracts Committee (the Committee) and the Performance Committee of the Board held a joint meeting on May 16, 2022 to discuss materials provided by PIMCO in connection with the Trustees review of the Agreements. The annual contract review process also involved multiple discussions and meetings with members of the Committee and the full Committee (the Approval Meeting, together with such discussions and meetings, the Contract Renewal Meetings). Throughout the process, the Independent Trustees received legal advice from independent legal counsel that is experienced in 1940 Act matters and independent of PIMCO (Independent Counsel), and with whom they met separately from PIMCO during the Contract Renewal Meetings. Representatives from PIMCO attended portions of the Contract Renewal Meetings and responded to questions from the Independent Trustees. The Committee also received and reviewed a memorandum from Independent Counsel regarding the Trustees responsibilities in considering each Agreement and the fees paid thereunder.
In connection with their deliberations regarding the proposed continuation of the Agreements, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, considered such information and factors as they believed, in light of the legal advice furnished to them and their own business judgment, to reasonably be necessary to evaluate the terms of the Agreements. The Trustees also considered the nature, quality and extent of the various investment management, administrative and other services performed by PIMCO under the Agreements.
In evaluating each Agreement, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, reviewed extensive materials provided by PIMCO in response to questions, inclusive of follow-up inquiries, submitted by the Independent Trustees and Independent Counsel. The Board also met with senior representatives of PIMCO regarding its personnel, operations, and estimated profitability as they relate to the Funds. The Trustees also considered the broad range of information relevant to the annual contract review that is provided to the Board (including its various standing committees) at meetings throughout the year, including reports on investment performance based on net asset value (NAV), market value (both absolute and compared against its Broadridge Performance Universe (as defined below)) and distribution yield, use of leverage (if applicable), information regarding share price premiums and/or discounts, risks, and other portfolio information, including any use of derivatives, as well as periodic reports on, among other matters, pricing and valuation, quality and cost of portfolio trade execution, compliance, and shareholder and other services provided by PIMCO and its affiliates. To assist with their review, the Trustees reviewed summaries prepared by PIMCO that analyzed each Fund based on a number of factors, including fees/expenses, performance, distribution yield, and risk-based factors, as of December 31, 2021. Additionally, the Trustees considered the impact of significant market volatility that occurred before, during, and/or after the period for which information was requested in conducting its evaluation of PIMCO. They also considered, among other information, performance based on NAV and market value, investment objective and strategy, portfolio managers, assets under management, outstanding leverage, share price premium and/or discount information, annual fund operating expenses, total expense ratio and management fee comparisons between each Fund and its Broadridge Expense Group (as defined below), and estimated profitability to PIMCO from its relationship with each Fund. In considering the Broadridge Performance Universe and Broadridge Expense Group (both as defined below), the Trustees requested that PIMCO comment on whether the peer funds selected for each Fund by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (Broadridge) provided an appropriate comparison, and if not, whether PIMCO believes another peer group would provide a more appropriate comparison.
In addition to approving the continuation of each Agreement at the Approval Meeting, the Board noted that it had also approved, at a separate meeting of the Board on March 24-25, 2022, an immaterial amendment to each Agreement to provide that, by investing in PIMCO Funds: Private Account Portfolio Series PIMCO Short-Term Floating NAV Portfolio III and/or PIMCO Funds: Private Account Portfolio Series PIMCO Short Asset Portfolio, each a series of PIMCO Funds (the Central Funds), 0.005% of each Funds management fee will be designated as compensation for the investment advisory services
SEMIANNUAL REPORT | | | JUNE 30, 2022 | 93 |
Approval of Investment Management Agreement | (Cont.) |
PIMCO provides to the Central Funds, as applicable. The Trustees considered that the Central Funds are offered as cash management vehicles available only to the Funds and other registered investment companies (or series thereof) for which PIMCO serves as investment adviser and that the Central Funds do not pay an investment advisory fee to PIMCO. The Trustees considered that the fees payable by each Fund pursuant to the amendments will not increase or otherwise change, PIMCOs level of services to the Funds under the Agreements will not be reduced in any way and that the amendments will have no effect on PIMCOs profitability with respect to the Funds.
The Trustees conclusions as to the continuation of each Agreement were based on a comprehensive consideration of all information provided to the Trustees during the Contract Renewal Meetings and throughout the year and were not the result of any single factor. Some of the factors that figured particularly in the Trustees deliberations are described below, although individual Trustees may have evaluated the information presented differently from one another, attributing different weights to various factors. The Trustees evaluated information available to them on a Fund-by-Fund basis, and their determinations were made separately in respect of each Fund.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
As part of their review, the Trustees received and considered descriptions of various functions performed by PIMCO for the Funds, such as portfolio management, compliance monitoring, portfolio trading practices, and oversight of third-party service providers. They also considered information regarding the overall organization and business functions of PIMCO, including, without limitation, information regarding senior management, portfolio managers and other personnel providing or proposed to provide investment management, administrative, and/or other services, and general corporate ownership and business operations unrelated to the Funds. The Trustees examined PIMCOs abilities to provide high-quality investment management and other services to the Funds, noting PIMCOs long history and experience in managing closed-end funds, such as the Funds, including experience monitoring discounts and premiums and complying with New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) requirements. Among other information, the Trustees considered the investment philosophy and research and decision-making processes of PIMCO; the breadth of each Funds investment universe; the experience of key advisory personnel of PIMCO responsible for portfolio management of the Funds; information regarding the Funds use of leverage; the ability of PIMCO to attract and retain capable personnel; the background and capabilities of the senior management and staff of PIMCO; the general process or philosophy for determining employee compensation; and the operational infrastructure, including technology and systems and cybersecurity measures, of PIMCO. The Trustees also considered actions
taken by PIMCO to manage the impact on each Fund and its portfolio holdings of market volatility during the time periods for which information was provided.
In addition, the Trustees noted the extensive range of services that PIMCO provides to the Funds beyond investment management services. In this regard, the Trustees reviewed the extent and quality of PIMCOs services with respect to regulatory compliance and its ability to comply with the investment policies of the Funds; the compliance programs and risk controls of PIMCO (including the implementation of new policies and programs); the specific contractual obligations of PIMCO pursuant to the Agreements; the nature, extent, and quality of the supervisory and administrative services PIMCO is responsible for providing to the Funds; PIMCOs risk management function; the time and resources PIMCO expends monitoring the leverage employed by the Funds, including the covenants and restrictions imposed by certain forms of leverage such as the Funds preferred shares; and conditions that might affect PIMCOs ability to provide high-quality services to the Funds in the future under the Agreements, including, but not limited to, PIMCOs financial condition and operational stability. The Trustees also took into account the entrepreneurial and business risk that PIMCO has undertaken as investment manager and sponsor of the Funds. Specifically, the Trustees considered that PIMCOs responsibilities include continual management of investment, operational, enterprise, legal, regulatory, and compliance risks as they relate to the Funds. The Trustees also noted PIMCOs activities under its contractual obligation to coordinate, oversee and supervise the Funds various outside service providers, including its negotiation of certain service providers fees and its due diligence and evaluation of service providers infrastructure, cybersecurity programs, compliance programs, and business continuity programs, among other matters. The Trustees also considered PIMCOs ongoing development of its own infrastructure and information technology, including its proprietary software and applications, to support the Funds through, among other things, cybersecurity, business continuity planning, and risk management.
The Trustees concluded that PIMCOs investment process, research capabilities and philosophy were well suited to each Fund given its investment objective and policies, that PIMCO would be able to continue to meet any reasonably foreseeable obligations under each Agreement, and that PIMCO would otherwise be able to continue to provide investment and non-investment services to each Fund of an appropriate extent and quality.
Fee and Expense Information
In assessing the reasonableness of each Funds fees and expenses under its Agreement, the Trustees requested and considered, among other information, the Funds management fee and its total expenses as a percentage of average net assets attributable to common shares
94 | PIMCO CLOSED-END FUNDS |
(Unaudited) |
and as a percentage of average total managed assets (including assets attributable both to common shares and specified leverage outstanding), in comparison to the management fees and other expenses of a group of industry peer funds identified by Broadridge as pursuing investment strategies with classifications/objectives similar to the Fund (for each Fund, its Broadridge Expense Group) as well as of a broader universe of peer funds identified by Broadridge (for each Fund, its Broadridge Expense Universe). In each case, the total expense ratio information was provided both inclusive and exclusive of interest and borrowing expenses. The Fund-specific fee and expense results discussed below were prepared and provided by Broadridge and were not independently verified by the Trustees. The Trustees noted that only leveraged closed-end funds were considered for inclusion in the Broadridge Expense Groups and Broadridge Expense Universes.
The Trustees considered information regarding the investment performance and fees for other funds and accounts managed by PIMCO, if any, including funds and accounts with comparable investment programs and/or principal investment strategies to those of the Funds, as well as certain other funds requested by the Trustees with broadly similar strategies and/or investment types. The Trustees considered information provided by PIMCO indicating that, in comparison to certain other products managed by PIMCO, including any open-end funds and exchange-traded funds with broadly similar strategies and/or investment types, there are additional portfolio management challenges in managing closed-end funds such as the Funds. For example, the challenges associated with managing closed-end funds may include investing in non-traditional and less liquid holdings, a greater use of leverage, issues relating to trading on a national securities exchange and managing a funds dividend practices. In addition, the Independent Trustees considered information provided by PIMCO as to the generally broader and more extensive services provided to the Funds in comparison to those provided to private funds or institutional or separate accounts; the higher demands placed on PIMCO to provide considerable shareholder services due to the volume of investors; the greater entrepreneurial, enterprise, and reputational risk in managing registered closed-end funds; and the expenses, and impact on PIMCO, associated with the more extensive regulatory and compliance requirements to which the Funds are subject in comparison to private funds or institutional or separate accounts. The Trustees were advised by PIMCO that, in light of these additional challenges and additional services, different pricing structures between closed-end funds and other products managed by PIMCO are to be expected, and that comparisons of pricing structures across these products may not always be apt comparisons, even where other products have comparable investment objectives and strategies to those of the Funds.
The Trustees also took into account that the Funds have preferred shares outstanding, which increases the amount of management fees payable by each Fund under its Agreement (because each Funds fees are calculated based on net assets, including assets attributable to preferred shares outstanding). In this regard, the Trustees took into account that PIMCO has a financial incentive for the Funds to use or continue to use leverage in the form of preferred shares, which may create a conflict of interest between PIMCO, on one hand, and the Funds common shareholders, on the other. Therefore, the Trustees noted that the total fees paid by each Fund to PIMCO under the Funds unified fee arrangement would therefore vary more with increases and decreases in leverage attributable to preferred shares than under a non-unified fee arrangement, all other things being equal. The Trustees considered information provided by PIMCO and related presentations as to why each Funds use of leverage continues to be appropriate and in the best interests of the respective Fund under current market conditions. The Trustees noted that each quarter they receive information from PIMCO comparing the recent, historical and projected costs of each Funds existing leverage arrangements against other available financing options, as well as information relating to PIMCOs views regarding economic or other risks of maintaining those leverage arrangements and/or replacing them with alternate forms of financing. The Trustees also considered PIMCOs representation that it will use leverage for the Funds solely as it determines to be in the best interests of the Funds from an investment perspective and without regard to the level of compensation PIMCO receives.
The Trustees noted that, for each Fund, the contractual and actual management fee rates for the Fund under its unified fee arrangement were above the median contractual and actual management fees of the other funds in its Broadridge Expense Group, calculated both on average net assets and on average total managed assets. However, in this regard, the Trustees took into account that each Funds unified fee arrangement covers substantially all of the Funds operating fees and expenses (Operating Expenses), and therefore, all other things being equal, would tend to be higher than the contractual management fee rates of other funds in the Broadridge Expense Group, which generally do not have a unified fee structure and instead incur Operating Expenses directly and in addition to the management fee. The Trustees determined that a comparison of each Funds total expense ratio with the total expense ratios of its Broadridge Expense Group would generally provide more meaningful comparisons than comparing contractual and actual management fee rates in isolation.
In this regard, the Trustees noted PIMCOs view that the unified fee arrangements have benefited and will continue to benefit common shareholders because they provide an expense structure (including Operating Expenses) that is essentially fixed for the duration of the contractual period as a percentage of NAV (including assets
SEMIANNUAL REPORT | | | JUNE 30, 2022 | 95 |
Approval of Investment Management Agreement | (Cont.) |
attributable to preferred shares), making it more predictable under ordinary circumstances in comparison to other fee and expense structures, under which the Funds Operating Expenses (including certain third-party fees and expenses) could vary significantly over time. The Trustees also considered that the unified fee arrangements generally insulate the Funds and common shareholders from increases in applicable third-party and certain other expenses because PIMCO, rather than the Funds, would bear the risk of such increases (though the Trustees also noted that PIMCO would benefit from any reductions in such expenses).
Performance Information
Fund-specific comparative performance results for the Funds reviewed by the Trustees are discussed below. With respect to investment performance, the Trustees considered information regarding each Funds performance based on NAV and market value, as applicable, net of the Funds fees and expenses, both on an absolute basis and relative to the performance of its Broadridge Performance Universe (as defined below). The Trustees requested information provided by Broadridge regarding the investment performance of a broad universe of funds within the same investment classification/category that Broadridge determined are comparable to those of each Fund (for each Fund, its Broadridge Performance Universe). The comparative performance information was prepared and provided by Broadridge and was not independently verified by the Trustees. The Trustees also considered information regarding the Funds comparative yields and risk-adjusted returns. The Trustees recognized that the performance data reflects a snapshot of a period as of a particular date and that selecting a different performance period could produce significantly different results. They further acknowledged that long-term performance could be impacted by even one period of significant outperformance or underperformance. The Trustees considered information from PIMCO regarding the risks undertaken by each Fund, including the use of leverage, and PIMCOs management and oversight of the Funds risk profile, including in instances where the Fund outperformed its Broadridge Performance Universe.
In addition, the Trustees considered matters bearing on the Funds and their advisory arrangements at their meetings throughout the year, including a review of performance data at each regular meeting (by both the Board and its Performance Committee).
Profitability, Economies of Scale, and Fall-out Benefits
The Trustees considered estimated profitability analyses provided by PIMCO, which included, among other information, (i) PIMCOs estimated pre- and post-distribution operating margin for each Fund, as well as PIMCOs estimated pre- and post-distribution operating margin for all of the closed-end funds advised by PIMCO, including the
Funds (collectively, the Estimated Margins), in each case for the one-year period ended December 31, 2021; and (ii) a year-over-year comparison of PIMCOs Estimated Margins for the one-year periods ended December 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020. The Trustees also took into account explanations from PIMCO regarding how certain of PIMCOs corporate and shared expenses were allocated among the Funds and other funds and accounts managed by PIMCO for purposes of developing profitability estimates. Based on the profitability analyses provided by PIMCO, the Trustees determined, taking into account the various assumptions made, that such profitability did not appear to be excessive.
The Trustees also considered information regarding possible economies of scale in the operation of the Funds. The Trustees noted that the Funds do not currently have any breakpoints in their management fees. The Trustees considered that, as closed-end investment companies, the Funds do not continually offer new shares to raise additional assets (as does a typical open-end investment company), but may raise additional assets through follow-on offerings and dividend reinvestments and may also experience asset growth through investment performance and/or the increased use of leverage. The Trustees noted PIMCOs assertion that it may share the benefits of potential economies of scale, if any, with the Funds and their shareholders in a number of ways, including investing in portfolio and trade operations management, firm technology and cybersecurity measures, middle and back office support, legal and compliance, and fund administration logistics; senior management supervision and governance of those services; and the enhancement of services provided to the Funds in return for fees paid. The Trustees also considered that the unified fee arrangements provide inherent economies of scale because a Fund maintains competitive fixed unified fees even if the particular Funds assets decline and/or operating costs increase. The Trustees further considered that, in contrast, breakpoints may be used as a proxy for charging higher fees on lower asset levels and that when a funds assets decline, breakpoints may reverse, which causes expense ratios to increase. The Trustees also considered that, unlike the Funds unified fee arrangements, funds with pass through administrative fee structures may experience increased expense ratios when fixed dollar fees are charged against declining fund assets. The Trustees also considered that the unified fee arrangements protect shareholders, during the contractual period, from a rise in operating costs that may result from, among other things, PIMCOs investments in various business enhancements and infrastructure. The Trustees noted that PIMCO has made extensive investments in these areas.
Additionally, the Trustees considered so-called fall-out benefits to PIMCO, such as reputational value derived from serving as investment manager to the Funds and research, statistical and quotation services

(Unaudited) |
that PIMCO may receive from broker-dealers executing the Funds portfolio transactions on an agency basis.
Fund-by-Fund Analysis
With regard to the investment performance of each Fund and the fees charged to each Fund, the Board considered the following information. With respect to performance quintile rankings for a Fund compared to its Broadridge Performance Universe, the first quintile represents the highest (best) performance and the fifth quintile represents the lowest performance. The Board considered each Funds performance and fees in light of the limitations inherent in the methodology for determining such comparative groups.
