Letter from the Chairman of the Board & President
Dear Shareholder,
The financial markets experienced periods of volatility during each Funds reporting period.1 Investor sentiment was challenged at times given mixed economic data, uncertainties surrounding future global monetary policy, falling commodity prices and geopolitical issues.
For the reporting periods ended December 31, 2015
The U.S. economy expanded during the reporting period, but the pace was uneven. Looking back, U.S. gross domestic product (GDP), which represents the value of goods and services produced in the country, the broadest measure of economic activity and the principal indicator of economic performance, expanded at a 3.9% annual pace during the second quarter of 2015. Economic activity then decelerated, as GDP grew at a 2.0% annual pace during the third quarter of 2015. Finally, the Commerce Departments initial reading released after the reporting period had ended showed that fourth quarter 2015 GDP grew at an annual pace of 0.7%.
After nearly a decade of highly accommodative monetary policy, the Federal Reserve (Fed) raised interest rates at its meeting in mid-December 2015. The Feds action pushed rates from a range between 0% and 0.25% to a range between 0.25% and 0.50%. In its official statement following the meeting, the Fed said, The Committee expects that economic conditions will evolve in a manner that will warrant only gradual increases in the federal funds rate; the federal funds rate is likely to remain, for some time, below levels that are expected to prevail in the longer run.
The municipal bond market generated a positive return and outperformed the overall U.S. taxable fixed income market during each Funds reporting period. The municipal market was volatile at times given negative headlines surrounding Puerto Rico after the Commonwealths first default and the governors acknowledgement that the outstanding debt is not payable. After a modest decline in June 2015, the overall municipal market, as measured by the Barclays Municipal Bond Index, posted positive returns from July through December 2015. Supporting the municipal market were generally improving fundamentals and favorable supply and demand factors.
Outlook
PIMCOs baseline view sees U.S. economic growth in the range of 2.0%-2.5% over the next four quarters in line with the average growth rate of the U.S. economy during the current expansion and headline CPI (Consumer Price Index) inflation in a range of 1.5%-2%. In PIMCOs view, given moderate global recovery and the strong U.S. dollar, there will be little if any boost to aggregate demand from international trade. On the positive side of the ledger, PIMCO believes that the recent budget agreement between the Congress and President Obama will provide the U.S. economy a modest and unexpected fiscal boost from the increase in federal spending. With respect to the Fed, after Decembers initial rate hike, the market is pricing in two further quarter-point increases in 2016. PIMCO believes there is a risk that the Fed will deliver more rate hikes than the market is currently pricing in.
PIMCOs outlook for the municipal market remains positive due to improving credit fundamentals and favorable pre-tax equivalent valuations. That being said, PIMCO acknowledges the potential for interest rate volatility, additional supply pressures and negative credit headlines.
In the following pages of this PIMCO Closed-End Funds Annual Report, please find specific details regarding investment performance and a discussion of factors that most affected the Funds performance over the reporting period.
1 | Please note that the Funds fiscal year ends were recently changed to December 31, 2015; therefore, the length of each Funds reporting period will differ depending on its former fiscal year end. Please see Notes to Financial Statements for further detail. |

Investment return and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate. Total return, market price, NAV, market price distribution yield, and NAV distribution yield will fluctuate with changes in market conditions. For performance current to the most recent month-end, visit www.pimco.com or call (844) 33-PIMCO. |
(2) | Distribution yields 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, 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 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 made on Form 1099 DIV sent to shareholders each January. |

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). |
