PIMCO Floating Rate Income/PIMCO Floating Rate Strategy Funds Letter to Shareholders

 

March 12, 2009

 

 

Dear Shareholder:

 

Please find enclosed the semiannual report for the PIMCO Floating Rate Income Fund and PIMCO Floating Rate Strategy Fund (collectively the “Funds”) for the six-month period ended January 31, 2009.

 

Bond markets delivered mixed results for the period as investors retreated from risky assets, boosting prices and returns for government bonds. Meanwhile, tight credit conditions, global economic slowing and slack demand caused corporate bond prices to fall. In this environment, the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, a broad credit market measure of government and corporate securities, posted a positive 3.23% return. The Barclays Capital Investment Grade Credit Index, a measure of high quality corporate bond performance, fell 2.04% and the Merrill Lynch High Yield Bond Index declined 16.54%. Stocks fared worse with the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index falling 33.95% for the six-month period.

 

The Federal Reserve (“The Fed”) sought to inject liquidity into the economy through multiple initiatives, including reducing the Federal Funds rate three times during the six-month period. The Fed’s credit easing moves lowered the key benchmark rate on loans between member banks from 2.0% at the beginning of the reporting period to a targeted 0% to 0.25% at December 31, 2008. The Fed also announced plans to purchase approximately $500 billion in mortgage-backed securities by mid 2009.

 

In November, the Funds announced that they would redeem a portion of each Fund’s Auction Rate Preferred Shares (“ARPS”) at par value. The redemptions were intended to increase and maintain asset coverage of the Funds’ ARPS above the 200% level, the minimum coverage required to pay and declare common dividends.

 

Subsequent to the six month period ended January 31, 2009 the decision to redeem additional portions of each Fund’s ARPS was made at the recommendations of the Funds’ investment manager and sub-adviser and approved by the Funds’ Boards of Trustees. These redemptions were intended to increase and maintain asset coverage for each Fund’s ARPS above the 200% level, permitting the Funds to pay previously declared common share dividends and to declare and pay future common share dividends. Depending on market conditions, coverage ratios may increase or decrease further.

 

Please refer to the following pages for specific information on the Funds. If you have any questions regarding the information provided, we encourage you to contact your financial advisor or call the Funds’ shareholder servicing agent at (800) 331-1710. In addition, a wide range of information and resources are available on our Web site at www.allianzinvestors.com/closedendfunds.

 

Together with Allianz Global Investors Fund Management LLC, the Funds’ investment manager, and Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”), the Funds’ sub-adviser, we thank you for investing with us.

 

We remain dedicated to serving your investment needs.

 

Sincerely,

PIMCO Floating Rate Income Fund Fund Insights/Performance & Statistics

January 31, 2009 (unaudited)

 

·

For the fiscal six months ended January 31, 2009, PIMCO Floating Rate Income Fund returned (47.82)% on net asset value (“NAV”) and (33.50)% on market price.

·

Minimal exposure to the gaming sector, which continued to experience the negative impact of a weakening economy, contributed to the Fund’s performance.

·

Avoiding the home construction and real estate sectors, which continued to decline under significant pressure, was a strong contributor to the Fund’s performance.

·

As the auto sector came under increasing pressure, leading the bank loan market lower, a relatively significant allocation detracted from the Fund’s performance.

·

Exposure to the publishing/broadcasting sector detracted from performance, as loans in this industry plunged amid falling demand and deteriorating fundamentals.

·

Increasing exposure to investment-grade financials, which underperformed late in the fiscal period, weighed heavy on Fund performance.

(1) Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value or market share price (as applicable) in the period covered. The calculation assumes that all of the Fund’s income dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested. Total return does not reflect broker commissions or sales charges. Total return for a period of less than one year is not annualized. Total return for a period of more than one year represents the average annual total return.

 

The Fund’s performance at market price will differ from its results at NAV. Although market price returns typically reflect investment results over time, during shorter periods returns at market price can also be influenced by factors such as changing views about the Fund, market conditions, supply and demand for the Fund’s shares, or changes in Fund distributions.

 

An investment in the Fund involves risk, including the loss of principal. Total return, market price, market yield and net asset value will fluctuate with changes in market conditions. This data is provided for information only and is not intended for trading purposes. Closed-end funds, unlike open-end funds, are not continuously offered. There is a onetime public offering and once issued, shares of closed-end funds are sold in the open market through a stock exchange. Net asset value is equal to total assets attributable to common shareholders less total liabilities divided by the number of common shares outstanding. Holdings are subject to change daily.

 

(2) Market Price Yield is determined by dividing the annualized current monthly per share dividend payable to common shareholders by the market price per common share at January 31, 2009.

January 31, 2009 (unaudited)

 

·

For the fiscal six months ended January 31, 2009, PIMCO Floating Rate Strategy Fund returned (53.16)% on NAV and (44.22)% on market price.

·

Avoiding the home construction and real estate sectors, which continued to decline under significant pressure, was a strong contributor to the Fund’s performance.

·

Very limited exposure to metals and mining, which underperformed during the reporting period alongside the fall in commodities, was also a contributor to Fund performance.

·

As the auto sector came under increasing pressure, leading the bank loan market lower, a relatively significant allocation detracted from the Fund’s performance.

·

A relatively minimal weight to food/tobacco, which was among the best performing sectors during the fiscal period, detracted from Fund’s performance.

·

Increasing exposure to investment-grade financials, which underperformed late in the period, weighed heavy on Fund performance.

PIMCO Floating Rate Strategy Fund Schedule of Investments

January 31, 2009 (unaudited) (continued)

 

 

 

Notes to Schedules of Investments:

(a)

 

Private Placement–Restricted as to resale and may not have a readily available market. Securities with an aggregate value of $71,397,307and $139,170,477, representing 25.11% and 23.01% of total investments in Floating Rate Income and Floating Rate Strategy, respectively.

(b)

 

Illiquid security.

(c)

 

These securities generally pay interest at rates which are periodically pre-determined by reference to a base lending rate plus a premium. These base lending rates are generally either the lending rate offered by one or more major European banks, such as the “LIBOR” or the prime rate offered by one or more major United States banks, or the certificate of deposit rate. These securities are generally considered to be restricted as the Funds are ordinarily contractually obligated to receive approval from the Agent bank and/or borrower prior to disposition. Remaining maturities of senior loans may be less than the stated maturities shown as a result of contractual or optional payments by the borrower. Such prepayments cannot be predicted with certainty. The interest rate disclosed reflects the rate in effect on January 31, 2009.

(d)

 

144A Security–Security exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, typically only to qualified institutional buyers. Unless otherwise indicated, these securities are not considered to be illiquid.

(e)

 

Security in default.

(f)

 

Fair-Valued–Securities with an aggregate value of $4,680,568 and $4,281,181, representing 1.65% and 0.71% of total investments in Floating Rate Income and Floating Rate Strategy, respectively. See Note 1(a) in the Notes to Financial Statements.

(g)

 

Perpetual maturity security. Maturity date shown is the first call date. Interest rate is fixed until the first call date and variable thereafter.

(h)

 

All or partial amount segregated as collateral for swaps. See Note 3 in the Notes to Financial Statements.

(i)

 

Non-income producing.

(j)

PIMCO Floating Rate Income/PIMCO Floating Rate Strategy Funds

Notes to Financial Statements

January 31, 2009 (unaudited)

 

 

1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

PIMCO Floating Rate Income Fund (“Floating Rate Income”) and PIMCO Floating Rate Strategy Fund (“Floating Rate Strategy”), collectively referred to as the “Funds”, were organized as Massachusetts business trusts on June 19, 2003 and June 30, 2004, respectively. Prior to commencing operations on August 29, 2003 and October 29, 2004, respectively, Floating Rate Income and Floating Rate Strategy had no operations other than matters relating to their organization and registration as diversified, closed-end management investment companies registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and the rules and regulations there under, as amended. Allianz Global Investors Fund Management LLC (the “Investment Manager”), serves as the Funds’ Investment Manager and is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“Allianz Global”). Allianz Global is an indirect, majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz SE, a publicly traded European insurance and financial services company. Each Fund has an unlimited amount of $0.00001 par value per share of common stock authorized.

 

Each Fund’s investment objective is to seek high current income, consistent with the preservation of capital. Under normal market conditions, each Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in a diversified portfolio of floating rate debt instruments, a substantial portion of which will be senior floating rate loans. The ability of the issuers of the Funds’ investments to meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments in a specific industry.

 

The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations that provide general indemnifications. 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 been asserted. However, the Funds expect the risk of any loss to be remote.

 

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation establishes for all entities, including pass-through entities such as the Funds, a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of positions taken in filing tax returns (including whether an entity is taxable in a particular jurisdiction), and requires certain expanded tax disclosures. The Funds’ management has determined that its evaluation of the Interpretation has resulted in no material impact to the Funds’ financial statements at January 31, 2009. The Funds’ federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

 

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds:

 

(a) Valuation of Investments

Portfolio securities and other financial instruments for which market quotations are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services.

 

Portfolio securities and other financial instruments for which market quotations are not readily available or if a development/event occurs that may significantly impact the value of a security, are fair-valued, in good faith, pursuant to procedures established by the Board of Trustees, or persons acting at their discretion pursuant to procedures established by the Board of Trustees, including certain fixed income securities which may be valued with reference to securities whose prices are more readily available. The Funds’ investments, including over-the-counter options, are valued on the last business day of each week using prices supplied by an independent pricing service or dealer quotations, or by using the last sale price on the exchange that is the primary market for such securities, or the last quoted mean price for those securities for which the over-the-counter market is the primary market or for listed securities in which there were no sales. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Exchange-traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange. Short-term securities maturing in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, if their original term to maturity was 60 days or less, or by amortizing their value on the 61st day prior to maturity, if the original term to maturity exceeded 60 days. Investments initially valued in currencies other than U.S. dollar are

1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the Net Asset Value (“NAV”) of each Fund’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is closed and the NAV may change on days when an investor is not able to purchase or sell shares.

 

The prices used by the Funds to value securities may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and these differences could be material to the financial statements of the Funds. Each Fund’s NAV is normally determined weekly, generally on the last business day of the week that the NYSE is open for trading, as of the close of regular trading (normally, 4:00 p.m. Eastern time).

 

Each Fund is party to International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreements (“ISDA Master Agreements”) with select counterparties that govern transactions, over-the-counter derivative and foreign exchange contracts, entered into by each Fund and those counterparties. The ISDA Master Agreements maintain provisions for general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral 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 early terminate could be material to the Funds’ financial statements.

 

(b) Fair Value Measurement

Effective August 1, 2008, the Funds adopted FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”). This standard clarifies the definition of fair value for financial reporting, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosure about the use of the fair value measurements. Under this standard, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e. the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under SFAS 157 are described below:

 

·

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments that the Funds have the ability to access

·

Level 2 – valuations based on other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) or quotes from inactive exchanges

·

Level 3 – valuations based on significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

 

The valuation techniques used by the Funds to measure fair value during the six months ended January 31, 2009 maximized the use of observable inputs and minimized the use of unobservable inputs. The Funds utilized the following fair value techniques on Level 3 investments: multi-dimensional relational pricing model and option adjusted spread pricing.

 

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

The following is a summary of the inputs used as of January 31, 2009 in valuing the Funds’ investments carried at value:

(c) Disclosures about Credit Derivatives

The Funds have adopted FASB Staff Positions No. 133-1 and Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 45-4 (FIN 45-4) “Disclosures about Credit Derivatives and Certain Guarantees: An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 and FAS Interpretation No. 45; and Clarification of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 161” (“FSP”). FSP is effective for fiscal years or interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The amendments to FASB 133 include required disclosure for (i) the nature and terms of the credit derivative, reasons for entering into the credit derivative, the events or circumstances that would require the seller to perform under the credit derivative, and the current status of the payment/performance risk of the credit derivative, (ii) the maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) the seller could be required to make under the credit derivative, (iii) the fair value of the credit derivative, and (iv) the nature of an recourse provisions and assets held either as collateral or by third parties. The amendments to FIN 45 require additional disclosures about the current status of the payment/performance risk of a guarantee. All changes to accounting policies have been made in accordance with the FSP and incorporated for the current period as part of the disclosures within Footnote 3(a) in the Notes to the Financial Statements.

protection and fair value of each credit derivative at January 31, 2009. Potential losses related to hybrid instruments that have embedded credit derivatives are limited to the initial cost of investments.

 

(d) Investment Transactions and Investment Income

Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Securities purchased and sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investments are determined on an identified cost basis. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts or premiums on debt securities purchased are accreted or amortized to interest income over the lives of the respective securities using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Facility fees and other fees (such as origination fees) received by the Funds are amortized as income over the expected term of the loan. Commitment fees received by the Funds relating to unfunded purchase commitments are recorded as other fee income upon receipt.

 

(e) Federal Income Taxes

The Funds intend to distribute all of their taxable income and to comply with the other requirements of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies. Accordingly, no provision for U.S. federal income taxes is required.

 

(f) Dividends and Distributions — Common Stock

The Funds declare dividends from net investment income monthly to common shareholders. Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, are paid at least annually. The Funds record dividends and distributions to their shareholders on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These “book-tax” differences are considered either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal income tax treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. To the extent dividends and/or distributions exceed current and accumulated earnings and profits for federal income tax purposes; they are reported as dividends and/or distributions of paid-in-capital in excess of par.

 

(g) Foreign Currency Translation

The Funds’ accounting records are maintained in U.S. dollars as follows: (1) the foreign currency market value of investments and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated at the prevailing exchange rate at the end of the period; and (2) purchases and sales, income and expenses are translated at the prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates of such transactions. The resulting net foreign currency gain or loss is included in the Statements of Operations.

 

The Funds do not generally isolate that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the foreign currency exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of securities. Accordingly, such foreign currency gain (loss) is included in net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments.

 

However, the Funds do isolate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates when determining the gain or loss upon the sale or maturity of foreign currency denominated debt obligations pursuant to U.S. federal income tax regulations; such amount is categorized as foreign currency gain or loss for both financial reporting and income tax reporting purposes.

 

(h) Senior Loans

The Funds purchase assignments of Senior Loans originated, negotiated and structured by a U.S. or foreign commercial bank, insurance company, finance company or other financial institution (the “Agent”) for a lending syndicate of financial institutions (the “Lender”). When purchasing an assignment, the Funds succeed to all the rights and obligations under the loan agreement with the same rights and obligations as the assigning Lender. Assignments may, however, be arranged through private negotiations between potential assignees and potential assignors, and the rights and obligations acquired by the purchaser of an assignment may differ from, and be more limited than, those held by the assigning Lender.

1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

(i) Option Transactions

The Funds may purchase and write (sell) put and call options on securities for hedging purposes, risk management purposes or as part of their investment strategies. The risk associated with purchasing an option is that the Funds pay a premium whether or not the option is exercised. Additionally, the Funds bear the risk of loss of premium and change in market value should the counterparty not perform under the contract. Put and call options purchased are accounted for in the same manner as portfolio securities. The cost of securities acquired through the exercise of call options is increased by the premiums paid. The proceeds from securities sold through the exercise of put options is decreased by the premiums paid.

 

When an option is written, the premium received is recorded as an asset with an equal liability which is subsequently marked to market to reflect the current market value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as options written in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Premiums received from writing options which expire unexercised are recorded on the expiration date as a realized gain. The difference between the premium received and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain, or if the premium is less than the amount paid for the closing purchased transactions, as a realized loss. If a call option written by the Funds is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security in determining whether there has been a realized gain or loss. If a put option written by the Funds is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the security. In writing an option, the Funds bear the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option. Exercise of a written option could result in the Funds purchasing a security at a price different from the current market value.

 

(j) Swap Agreements

The Funds may enter into in swap agreements. Swap agreements are privately negotiated agreements between the Funds and a counterparty to exchange or swap investment cash flows, assets, foreign currencies or market-linked returns at specified, future intervals. The Funds may enter into credit default, cross- currency, interest rate, total return, variance and other forms of swap agreements in order to manage their exposure to credit, currency and interest rate risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements to provide assets of value and recourse in the event of default or bankruptcy/insolvency.

 

Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and represent payments made or received upon entering into the swap agreement to compensate for differences between the stated terms of the swap agreement and prevailing market conditions (credit spreads, currency exchange rates, interest rates, and other relevant factors). These upfront payments are recorded as realized gains or losses on the Statements of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss on the Statements of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Funds are included as part of realized gains or losses on the Statements of Operations.

 

Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, legal, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks include the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparties to the agreements may default on their obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.

 

Credit Default Swap Agreements — Credit default swap agreements involve one party (referred to as the buyer of protection) making a stream of payments to another party (the seller of protection) in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default or other credit event for the referenced entity, obligation or index. As a seller of protection on credit default swap agreements, the Funds will generally receive from the buyer of protection a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. As the seller, the Funds would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Funds would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap.

 

If the Funds are sellers of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Funds will either (i) pay to the buyer of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations or underlying securities comprising the

referenced index or (ii) pay a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index. If the Funds are buyers of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Funds will either (i) receive from the seller of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or (ii) receive a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index. Recovery values are assumed by market makers considering either industry standard recovery rates or entity specific factors and considerations until a credit event occurs. If a credit event has occurred, the recovery value is determined by a facilitated auction whereby a minimum number of allowable broker bids, together with a specified valuation method, are used to calculate the settlement value.

 

Credit default swap agreements on corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default or other credit event. If a credit event occurs and cash settlement is not elected, a variety of other deliverable obligations may be delivered in lieu of the specific referenced obligation. The ability to deliver other obligations may result in a cheapest-to-deliver option (the buyer of protection’s right to choose the deliverable obligation with the lowest value following a credit event). The Funds may use credit default swaps on corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Funds own or have exposure to the referenced obligation) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default.

 

Credit default swap agreements on asset-backed securities involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default or other credit event. Unlike credit default swaps on corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, deliverable obligations in most instances would be limited to the specific referenced obligation as performance for asset-backed securities can vary across deals. Prepayments, principal paydowns, and other writedown or loss events on the underlying mortgage loans will reduce the outstanding principal balance of the referenced obligation. These reductions may be temporary or permanent as defined under the terms of the swap agreement and the notional amount for the swap agreement will be adjusted by corresponding amounts. The Funds may use credit default swaps on asset-backed securities to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the referenced obligation or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular referenced obligation’s default.

 

Credit default swap agreements on credit indices involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a write-down, principal shortfall, interest shortfall or default of all or part of the referenced entities comprising the credit index. A credit index is a list of a basket of credit instruments or exposures designed to be representative of some part of the credit market as a whole. These indices are made up of reference credits that are judged by a poll of dealers to be the most liquid entities in the credit default swap market based on the sector of the index. Components of the indices may include, but are not limited to, investment grade securities, high yield securities, asset backed securities, emerging markets, and/or various credit ratings within each sector. Credit indices are traded using credit default swaps with standardized terms including a fixed spread and standard maturity dates. An index credit default swap references all the names in the index, and if there is a default, the credit event is settled based on that name’s weight in the index. The composition of the indices changes periodically, usually every six months, and for most indices, each name has an equal weight in the index. The Funds may use credit default swaps on credit indices to hedge a portfolio of credit default swaps or bonds with a credit default swap on indices which is less expensive than it would be to buy many credit default swap to achieve a similar effect. Credit-default swap on indices are benchmarks for protecting investors owning bonds against default, and traders use them to speculate on changes in credit quality.

 

Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the market value of credit default swap agreements on corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country as of period end are disclosed later in the Notes (see 3(a)) and serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. The implied credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into the agreement. For credit default swap agreements on asset-backed securities and credit indices, the quoted market

prices and resulting values serve as the indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk. Wider credit spreads and increasing market values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

 

The maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) that the Funds as sellers of protection could be required to make under a credit default swap agreement would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement. Notional amounts of all credit default swap agreements outstanding as of January 31, 2009 for which the Funds are sellers of protection are disclosed later in the Notes (see 3(a)). These potential amounts would be partially offset by any recovery values of the respective referenced obligations, upfront payments received upon entering into the agreement, or net amounts received from the settlement of buy protection credit default swap agreements entered into by the Funds for the same referenced entity or entities.

 

(k) Forward Foreign Currency Contracts

A forward foreign currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set exchange rate on a future date. The Funds may enter into forward foreign currency contracts for the purpose of hedging against foreign currency risk arising from the investment or anticipated investment in securities denominated in foreign currencies. The Funds may also enter these contracts for purposes of increasing exposure to a foreign currency or to shift exposure to foreign currency fluctuations from one country to another. The market value of a forward foreign currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. All commitments are marked to market daily at the applicable exchange rates and any resulting unrealized appreciation or depreciation is recorded. Realized gains or losses are recorded at the time the forward contract matures or by delivery of the currency. Risks may arise upon entering these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.

 

(l) Futures Contracts

A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a financial instrument at a set price on a future date. Upon entering into such a contract, the Funds are required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash or securities equal to the minimum “initial margin” requirements of the exchange. Pursuant to the contracts, the Funds agree to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash or securities equal to the daily fluctuation in the value of the contracts. Such receipts or payments are known as “variation margin” and are recorded by the Funds as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. When the contracts are closed, the Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contracts at the time they were opened and the value at the time they were closed. Any unrealized appreciation or depreciation recorded is simultaneously reversed. The use of futures transactions involves the risk of an imperfect correlation in the movements in the price of futures contracts, interest rates and the underlying hedged assets, and the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.

 

(m) Repurchase Agreements

The Funds may enter into transactions with its custodian bank or securities brokerage firms whereby it purchases securities under agreements to resell at an agreed upon price and date (“repurchase agreements”). Such agreements are carried at the contract amount in the financial statements. Collateral pledged (the securities received), which consists primarily of U.S. government obligations and asset-backed securities, are held by the custodian bank until maturity of the repurchase agreement. Provisions of the repurchase agreements and the procedures adopted by the Funds require that the market value of the collateral, including accrued interest thereon, is sufficient in the event of default by the counterparty. If the counterparty defaults and the value of the collateral declines or if the counterparty enters an insolvency proceeding, realization of the collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited.

 

(n) Reverse Repurchase Agreements

In a reverse repurchase agreement, the Funds sell securities to a bank or broker-dealer and agree to repurchase the securities at a mutually agreed date and price. Generally, the effect of such a transaction is that the Funds can recover and reinvest all or most of the cash invested in the portfolio securities involved during the term of the reverse repurchase agreement and still be entitled to the returns associated with those portfolio securities. Such transactions are advantageous if the interest cost to the Funds of the reverse repurchase transaction is less than the returns it obtains on investments purchased with the cash. Unless the Funds cover their positions in reverse repurchase agreements (by segregating liquid assets at least equal in amount to the forward purchase commitment), their

obligations under the agreements will be subject to the Funds’ limitations on borrowings. Reverse repurchase agreements involve leverage risk and also the risk that the market value of the securities that the Funds are obligated to repurchase under the agreement may decline below the repurchase price. In the event the buyer of securities under a reverse repurchase agreement files for bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, the Funds’ use of the proceeds of the agreement may be restricted pending determination by the other party, or its trustee or receiver, whether to enforce the Funds’ obligation to repurchase the securities.

 

(o) When-Issued/Delayed-Delivery Transactions

The Funds may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. The transactions involve a commitment to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Funds will set aside and maintain until the settlement date in a designated account, liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Funds assume the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations; consequently, such fluctuations are taken into account when determining the net asset value. The Funds may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a realized gain or loss. When a security is sold on a delayed-delivery basis, the Funds do not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.

 

(p) Custody Credits on Cash Balances

The Funds benefit from an expense offset arrangement with their custodian bank whereby uninvested cash balances earn credits which reduce monthly custodian and accounting agent expenses. Had these cash balances been invested in income producing securities, they would have generated income for the Funds.

 

2. Investment Manager/Sub-Adviser

Each Fund has an Investment Management Agreement (each an “Agreement”) with the Investment Manager. Subject to the supervision of the Funds’ Board of Trustees, the Investment Manager is responsible for managing, either directly or through others selected by it, the Funds’ investment activities, business affairs and administrative matters. Pursuant to each Agreement, the Investment Manager receives an annual fee, payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.75% of each Fund’s average weekly total managed assets. Total managed assets refer to the total assets of each Fund (including assets attributable to any Preferred Shares or other forms of leverage that may be outstanding minus accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing leverage)).

 

The Investment Manager has retained its affiliate, Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”), to manage the Funds’ investments. Subject to the supervision of the Investment Manager, the Sub-Adviser is responsible for making all of the Funds’ investment decisions. The Investment Manager, and not the Funds, pays a portion of the fees it receives to the Sub-Adviser in return for its services.

PIMCO Floating Rate Income/PIMCO Floating Rate Strategy Funds
Notes to Financial Statements

January 31, 2009 (unaudited)

 

 

3. Investments in Securities (continued)

 

*

Issuer in default.

 

 

(1)

If the Funds are buyers of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Funds will either (i) receive from the seller of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or (ii) receive a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index.

(2)

If the Funds are sellers of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Funds will either (i) pay to the buyer of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or (ii) pay a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index.

(3)

Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the market value of credit default swap agreements as of year end serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. The implied credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into the agreement. Wider credit spreads represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

(4)

The maximum potential amount the Funds could be required to make as sellers of credit protection or receive as buyers of credit protection if a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement.

(5)

The quoted market prices and resulting values for credit default swap agreements serve as an indicator of the status at January 31, 2009 of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood of an expected liability (or profit) for the credit derivative should the notional amount of the swap agreement been closed/sold as of the period end. Increasing market values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

4. Income Tax Information

Net investment income and net realized loss differ for federal income tax and financial statement purposes primarily due to the treatment of amounts received under swap agreements. For the six months ended January 31, 2009, Floating Rate Income and Floating Rate Strategy received $1,162,361 and $4,616,951, respectively, from swap agreements which are treated as net realized gain for financial statement purposes and as net income for federal income tax purposes.

 

The cost basis of investments is substantially the same for both federal income tax and financial statement purposes. Gross unrealized appreciation and gross unrealized depreciation of investments at January 31, 2009 were:

The Funds are subject to certain limitations and restrictions while Preferred Shares are outstanding. Failure to comply with these limitations and restrictions could preclude the Funds from declaring any dividends or distributions to common shareholders or repurchasing common shares and/or could trigger the mandatory redemption of Preferred Shares at their liquidation value.

 

Preferred shareholders, who are entitled to one vote per share, generally vote together with the common shareholders but vote separately as a class to elect two Trustees and on any matters affecting the rights of the preferred shareholders.

 

Since mid-February 2008, holders of auction-rate preferred shares (“ARPS”) issued by the Funds have been directly impacted by an unprecedented lack of liquidity, which has similarly affected ARPS holders in many of the nation’s 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 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,” the higher of the 7-Day USD London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (LIBOR) multiplied by 125% or the 7-Day USD LIBOR plus 1.25% (which is a function of short-term interest rates and typically higher than the rate that would have otherwise been set through a successful auction).

 

These developments with respect to ARPS have not affected the management or investment policies of the Funds, and the Funds’ outstanding common shares continue to trade on the NYSE without any change. 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 the Funds’ common shareholders could be adversely affected.

 

During the six months ended January 31, 2009, the Funds redeemed, at par, a portion of their ARPS. The decision to redeem a portion of the Funds’ ARPS was made by the Funds’ Board of Trustees at the recommendation of the Funds’

6. Subsequent Common Dividend Declarations

On March 6, 2009, the Funds announced that due to recent market conditions and requirements under the Funds’ By-laws and the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) they have postponed the declaration of the next dividends on the Funds’ common shares, which would have been paid in April 2009.

 

On March 20, 2009, a dividend of $0.08864 per share was declared to common shareholders of Floating Rate Strategy, which was scheduled to have been declared on March 6, 2009 but postponed. The dividend is payable April 3, 2009 to shareholders of record on March 30, 2009.

 

On March 23, 2009, a dividend of $0.09280 per share was declared to common shareholders of Floating Rate Income, which was scheduled to have been declared on March 6, 2009 but postponed. The dividend is payable April 9, 2009 to shareholders of record on April 2, 2009.

 

In accordance with the 1940 Act and each Fund’s By-laws, the Funds are not permitted to pay or declare common share dividends unless the Funds’ ARPS have minimum asset coverage of 200% (“200% Level”) after payment of a common share dividend or declaration of a common share dividend. Due to continued severe market dislocations and recent further erosions in the market, the value of the Funds’ portfolio securities have declined, which has caused the Funds’ asset coverage ratios to fall below the 200% Level.

 

7. Market and Credit Risk

On September 15, 2008, Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. On September 19, 2008, a proceeding under the Securities Investor Protection Act (“SIPA”) was commenced with respect to Lehman Brothers Inc., a broker-dealer. A trustee appointed under SIPA is administering the bankruptcy estate of Lehman Brothers Inc. Lehman Brothers International (Europe) was placed in administration under the UK Insolvency Act on September 15, 2008. Lehman Brothers Special Financing Inc. filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code on October 3, 2008. In connection with these filings, the Lehman Brothers group of companies (collectively “Lehman Brothers”) will be reorganized and/or liquidated in an orderly fashion, subject to court approval. Each Lehman Brothers entity is a separate legal entity that is subject to its own bankruptcy proceeding.

 

The Funds had select holdings, derivatives transactions and collateral outstanding with Lehman Brothers entities as issuer, referenced entity, counterparty or guarantor at the time the relevant Lehman Brothers entity filed for protection or was placed in administration. Anticipated losses for securities and derivatives transactions associated with Lehman Brothers have been incorporated as components of other liabilities on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the Statements of Operations. As a result of these anticipated losses, Floating Rate Strategy’s NAV decreased by $0.004 per common share. A facilitated auction occurred on October 10, 2008 comprising multiple pre-approved brokerage agencies to determine the estimated recovery rate for holdings and credit default swap agreements with Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. as the referenced entity. These

recovery rates have been utilized in determining estimated recovery values for certain holdings. Financial assets and liabilities may be offset and the net amount may be reported in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities where there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 39, Offsetting of Amounts Related to Certain Contracts (“FIN 39”) have been met. As of January 31, 2009, the line item titled “Payable to Broker” on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities represents the net amount payable to Lehman Brothers for early terminated swap contracts offset by cash collateral of $750,000 as a result of the application of FIN 39 in Floating Rate Income. As a result of the early terminated swap contracts, Floating Rate Income and Floating Rate Strategy realized losses which decreased each Fund’s NAV by $0.05 per common share and $0.11 per common share, respectively.

 

The Sub-Adviser has delivered notices of default to the relevant Lehman Brothers entities in accordance with the terms of the applicable agreements. For transactions with Lehman Brothers counterparties, the Sub-Adviser has terminated the trades and, has obtained quotations from brokers for replacement trades.

 

8. Legal Proceedings

In June and September 2004, the Investment Manager and certain of its affiliates (including PEA Capital LLC (“PEA”), Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) and Allianz Global Investors of America, L.P.), agreed to settle, without admitting or denying the allegations, claims brought by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the New Jersey Attorney General alleging violations of federal and state securities laws with respect to certain open-end funds for which the Investment Manager serves as investment adviser. The settlements related to an alleged “market timing” arrangement in certain open-end funds formerly sub-advised by PEA. The Investment Manager and its affiliates agreed to pay a total of $68 million to settle the claims. In addition to monetary payments, the settling parties agreed to undertake certain corporate governance, compliance and disclosure reforms related to market timing and consented to cease and desist orders and censures. Subsequent to these events, PEA deregistered as an investment adviser and dissolved. None of the settlements alleged that any inappropriate activity took place with respect to the Funds.

 

Since February 2004, the Investment Manager, the Sub-Adviser, and certain of their affiliates and their employees have been named as defendants in a number of pending lawsuits concerning “market timing” which allege the same or similar conduct underlying the regulatory settlements discussed above. The market timing lawsuits have been consolidated in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland. Any potential resolution of these matters may include, but not be limited to, judgments or settlements for damages against the Investment Manager, the Sub-Adviser, or their affiliates or related injunctions.

 

The Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Funds or on their ability to perform their respective investment advisory activities relating to the Funds.

 

The foregoing speaks only as of the date hereof.
