UNDERSTANDING FUND EXPENSES

As a mutual fund shareholder, you incur different costs: transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions, and ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service fees (12b-1 fees), and other fund expenses. Certain exemptions may apply. These costs are described in more detail in the Fund’s prospectus. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and help you compare these with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The first line in the table of each class of Fund shares shows the actual account values and actual Fund expenses you would have paid on a $1,000 investment in the Fund from February 1, 2020 through July 31, 2020. To estimate the expenses you paid over the period, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60) and multiply the result by the number in the Expenses Paid During Period column as shown below for your class.

The second line in the table of each class of Fund shares provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid on your investment for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown reflect ongoing costs only, and do not include any transaction costs, such as sales charges. Therefore, the second line in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative costs of owning different funds. If transaction costs were included, total costs would be higher.

BOARD APPROVAL OF THE EXISTING ADVISORY AGREEMENT

The Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board”), including the Independent Trustees, considers matters bearing on the Fund’s advisory agreement (the “Agreement”) at most of its meetings throughout the year. Each year, usually in the spring, the Contract Review Committee of the Board meets to review the Agreement to determine whether to recommend that the full Board approve the continuation of the Agreement, typically for an additional one-year period. After the Contract Review Committee has made its recommendation, the full Board, including the Independent Trustees, determines whether to approve the continuation of the Agreement.

In connection with these meetings, the Trustees receive materials that the Fund’s investment adviser (the “Adviser”) believes to be reasonably necessary for the Trustees to evaluate the Agreement. These materials generally include, among other items, (i) information on the investment performance of the Fund and the performance of a peer group of funds and the Fund’s performance benchmark, (ii) information on the Fund’s advisory fee and other expenses, including information comparing the Fund’s advisory fee to the fees charged to institutional accounts with similar strategies managed by the Adviser, if any, and to those of a peer group of funds and information about any applicable expense limitations and/or fee “breakpoints,” (iii) sales and redemption data in respect of the Fund, (iv) information about the profitability of the Agreement to the Adviser and (v) information obtained through the completion by the Adviser of a questionnaire distributed on behalf of the Trustees. The Board, including the Independent Trustees, also considers other matters such as (i) the Fund’s investment objective and strategies and the size, education and experience of the Adviser’s investment staff and its use of technology, external research and trading cost measurement tools, (ii) arrangements in respect of the distribution of the Fund’s shares and the related costs, (iii) the allocation of the Fund’s brokerage, if any, including, to the extent applicable, the use of “soft” commission dollars to pay for research and other similar services, (iv) the Adviser’s policies and procedures relating to, among other things, compliance, trading and best execution, proxy voting and valuation, (v) information about amounts invested by the Fund’s portfolio managers in the Fund or in similar accounts that they manage and (vi) the general economic outlook with particular emphasis on the mutual fund industry. Throughout the process, the Trustees are afforded the opportunity to ask questions of and request additional materials from the Adviser.

In addition to the materials requested by the Trustees in connection with their annual consideration of the continuation of the Agreement, the Trustees receive materials in advance of each regular quarterly meeting of the Board that provide detailed information about the Fund’s investment performance and the fees charged to the Fund for advisory and other services. This information generally includes, among other things, an internal performance rating for the Fund based on agreed-upon criteria, graphs showing the Fund’s performance and expense differentials against the Fund’s peer group/category, performance ratings provided by a third-party, total return information for various periods, and third-party performance rankings for various periods comparing the Fund against similarly categorized funds. The portfolio management team for the Fund or other representatives of the Adviser make periodic presentations to the Contract Review Committee and/or the full

 

    |  6


Board, and if the Fund is identified as presenting possible performance concerns it may be subject to more frequent Board or Committee presentations and reviews. In addition, each quarter, the Trustees are provided with detailed statistical information about the Fund’s portfolio. The Trustees also receive periodic updates between meetings. These updates have increased in frequency during the COVID-19 crisis.

The Board most recently approved the continuation of the Agreement for a one-year period at its meeting held in June 2020. The Trustees considered that, effective June 1, 2019, the Fund’s name, principal investment strategies, portfolio managers, primary prospectus index, advisory fee rate and expense limitations had changed. In considering whether to approve the continuation of the Agreement, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, did not identify any single factor as determinative. Individual Trustees may have evaluated the information presented differently from one another, giving different weights to various factors. Matters considered by the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, in connection with their approval of the Agreement included, but were not limited to, the factors listed below.

The nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund under the Agreement. The Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and its affiliates to the Fund and the resources dedicated to the Fund by the Adviser and its affiliates.

The Trustees considered not only the advisory services provided by the Adviser to the Fund, but also the monitoring and oversight services provided by Natixis Advisors, L.P. (“Natixis Advisors”). They also considered the administrative and shareholder services provided by Natixis Advisors and its affiliates to the Fund. They also took into consideration increases in the services provided resulting from new regulatory requirements.

The Trustees also considered the benefits to shareholders of investing in a mutual fund that is part of a family of funds that offers shareholders the right to exchange shares of one type of fund for shares of another type of fund, and provides a variety of fund and shareholder services.

After reviewing these and related factors, the Trustees concluded, within the context of their overall conclusions regarding the Agreement, that the nature, extent and quality of services provided supported the renewal of the Agreement.

Investment performance of the Fund and the Adviser. As noted above, the Trustees received information about the performance of the Fund over various time periods, including information that compared the performance of the Fund to the performance of a peer group and category of funds and the Fund’s performance benchmark. In addition, the Trustees reviewed data prepared by an independent third party that analyzed the performance of the Fund using a variety of performance metrics, including metrics that measured the performance of the Fund on a risk adjusted basis.

The Board noted that through December 31, 2019, the Fund’s one-, three- and five-year performance, stated as percentile rankings within categories selected by the independent third-party data provider, was as follows (where the best performance would be in the first percentile of its category):

 

    

One-Year

   

Three-Year

   

Five-Year

 

AEW Global Focused Real Estate Fund

     57     95     49

The Board noted that the Fund’s performance lagged that of the Fund’s category group median as determined by the independent third party for certain periods. The Board concluded that other factors relevant to performance supported renewal of the Agreement, including: (1) the underperformance was attributable, to a significant extent, to investment decisions (such as security selection or sector allocation) by the Adviser that were reasonable and consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and policies; (2) that the Fund’s more recent performance has been stronger relative to its category; and (3) that the Fund’s strategy had recently been changed and therefore the Fund’s current strategy has a limited performance history. The Board also considered information about the Fund’s more recent performance, including how that performance had been impacted by the COVID-19 crisis.

The Trustees also considered the Adviser’s performance and reputation generally, the performance of the fund family generally, and the historical responsiveness of the Adviser to Trustee concerns about performance and the willingness of the Adviser to take steps intended to improve performance.

After reviewing these and related factors, the Trustees concluded, within the context of their overall conclusions regarding the Agreement, that the performance of the Fund and the Adviser and/or other relevant factors supported the renewal of the Agreement.

The costs of the services to be provided and profits to be realized by the Adviser and its affiliates from their respective relationships with the Fund. The Trustees considered the fees charged to the Fund for advisory and administrative services as well as the total expense level of the Fund. This information included comparisons (provided both by management and by an independent third-party) of the Fund’s advisory fee and total expense level to those of its peer group and information about the advisory fees charged by the Adviser to comparable accounts (such as institutional separate accounts), as well as information about differences in such fees and the reasons for any such differences. In considering the fees charged to comparable accounts, the Trustees considered, among other things, management’s representations about the differences between managing mutual funds as compared to other types of accounts, including the additional resources required to effectively manage mutual fund assets, the greater regulatory costs associated with the management of such assets, and the entrepreneurial, regulatory and other risks associated with sponsoring and managing mutual funds. In evaluating the Fund’s advisory fee, the Trustees also took into account the demands, complexity and quality of the investment management of the Fund and the need for the Adviser to offer competitive compensation and the potential need to expend additional resources to the extent the Fund grows in size. The Trustees considered that over the past several years, management had made recommendations regarding reductions in advisory fee rates, implementation of advisory fee breakpoints and the institution of advisory fee waivers and expense limitations for various funds in the fund family, as well as changes to the Fund’s advisory fee rate and expense limitation that had been implemented last year. They noted that the Fund has an expense limitation in place, and they considered the amounts waived or reimbursed by the Adviser for the Fund under its expense limitation agreement. The Trustees also noted that the Fund’s total advisory fee rate was below the median of a peer group of funds.

The Trustees also considered the compensation directly or indirectly received by the Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Fund. The Trustees reviewed

 

    |  8


information provided by management as to the profitability of the Adviser’s and its affiliates’ relationships with the Fund, and information about how expenses are determined and allocated for purposes of profitability calculations. They also reviewed information provided by management about the effect of distribution costs and changes in asset levels on Adviser profitability, including information regarding resources spent on distribution activities. When reviewing profitability, the Trustees also considered information about court cases in which adviser compensation or profitability were issues, the performance of the Fund, the expense levels of the Fund, whether the Adviser had implemented breakpoints and/or expense limitations with respect to the Fund and the overall profit margin of Natixis Investment Managers compared to that of certain other investment managers for which such data was available.

After reviewing these and related factors, the Trustees concluded, within the context of their overall conclusions regarding the Agreement, that the advisory fee charged to the Fund was fair and reasonable, and that the costs of these services generally and the related profitability of the Adviser and its affiliates in respect of their relationships with the Fund supported the renewal of the Agreement.

Economies of Scale. The Trustees considered the existence of any economies of scale in the provision of services by the Adviser and whether those economies are shared with the Fund through breakpoints in its investment advisory fee or other means, such as expense limitations. The Trustees also considered management’s explanation of the factors that are taken into account with respect to the implementation of breakpoints in investment advisory fees or expense limitations. With respect to economies of scale, the Trustees noted that the Fund’s advisory fee was not subject to breakpoints, as the advisory fee had been lowered, effective June 1, 2019, to a rate equal to the lowest rate under the Fund’s previous advisory fee schedule. The Trustees also noted that the Fund was subject to an expense limitation. In considering these issues, the Trustees also took note of the costs of the services provided (both on an absolute and on a relative basis) and the profitability to the Adviser and its affiliates of their relationships with the Fund, as discussed above.

After reviewing these and related factors, the Trustees concluded, within the context of their overall conclusions regarding the Agreement, that the extent to which economies of scale were shared with the Fund supported the renewal of the Agreement.

The Trustees also considered other factors, which included but were not limited to the following:

 

·  

The effect of recent market and economic events, including but not limited to the COVID-19 crisis, on the performance, asset levels and expense ratios of the Fund.

 

·  

Whether the Fund has operated in accordance with its investment objective and the Fund’s record of compliance with its investment restrictions, and the compliance programs of the Fund and the Adviser. They also considered the compliance-related resources the Adviser and its affiliates were providing to the Fund.

 

·  

So-called “fallout benefits” to the Adviser, such as the engagement of affiliates of the Adviser to provide distribution and administrative services to the Fund, and the benefits of research made available to the Adviser by reason of brokerage commissions (if any) generated by the Fund’s securities transactions. The Trustees also considered

 

9  |    


 

the benefits to the parent company of Natixis Advisors from the retention of the Adviser. The Trustees considered the possible conflicts of interest associated with these fallout and other benefits, and the reporting, disclosure and other processes in place to disclose and monitor such possible conflicts of interest.

 

·  

The Trustees’ review and discussion of the Fund’s advisory arrangements in prior years, and management’s record of responding to Trustee concerns raised during the year and in prior years.

Based on their evaluation of all factors that they deemed to be material, including those factors described above, and assisted by the advice of independent counsel, the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, concluded that the existing Agreement should be continued through June 30, 2021.

LIQUIDITY RISK MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

Annual Report for the Period Commencing on December 1, 2018 and ending December 31, 2019 (including updates through July 31, 2020)

Effective December 1, 2018, the Fund adopted a liquidity risk management program (the “Program”) pursuant to the requirements of Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Rule”). The Rule requires registered open-end funds, including mutual funds and exchange-traded funds to establish liquidity risk management programs in order to effectively manage fund liquidity and mitigate the risk that a fund could not meet redemption requests without significantly diluting the interests of remaining investors.

The rule requires the Fund to assess, manage and review its liquidity risk considering applicable factors during normal and foreseeable stressed conditions. In fulfilling this requirement, the Fund assesses and reviews (where applicable and amongst other matters) its investment strategy, portfolio holdings, possible investment concentrations, use of derivatives, short-term and long-term cash flow projections, use of cash and cash equivalents, as well as borrowing arrangements and other funding sources. The Program has established a Program Administrator (“Administrator”) which is the adviser of the Fund.

In accordance with the Program, each of the Fund’s portfolio investments is classified into one of four liquidity categories based on a determination of a reasonable expectation for how long it would take to convert the investment to cash (or sell or dispose of the investment) without significantly changing its market value.

The Fund is prohibited from acquiring an investment if, after the acquisition, its holdings of illiquid assets will exceed 15% of its net assets. If the Fund does not hold a majority of highly liquid investments in its portfolio, then the Fund is required to establish a highly liquid investment minimum (“HLIM”). The Fund has not established an HLIM.

During the period from December 1, 2018 to December 31, 2019, there were no material changes to the Program and no material events that impacted the operation of the Fund’s Program. During the period, the Fund held sufficient liquid assets to meet redemptions on a timely basis and did not have any illiquid security violations during the period.

During the period January 1, 2020 through July 31, 2020, the Fund held sufficient liquid assets to meet redemptions on a timely basis and did not have any illiquid security violations.

Annual Program Assessment and Conclusion

In the opinion of the Program Administrator, the Program of the Fund approved by the Fund’s Board has been implemented effectively. The Program Administrator has also monitored, assessed and managed the Fund’s liquidity risk regularly and has determined that the Program is operating effectively.

Pursuant to the Rule’s requirements, the Board has received and reviewed a written report prepared by the Fund’s Program Administrator that addressed the operation of the Program, assessed its adequacy and effectiveness and described any material changes made to the Program.

(a)

Per share net investment income has been calculated using the average shares outstanding during the period.

(b)

A sales charge for Class A shares is not reflected in total return calculations.

(c)

Had certain expenses not been waived/reimbursed during the period, total returns would have been lower.

(d)

Periods less than one year are not annualized.

(e)

The investment adviser agreed to waive its fees and/or reimburse a portion of the Fund’s expenses during the period. Without this waiver/reimbursement, expenses would have been higher.

(f)

Computed on an annualized basis for periods less than one year.

(g)

Effective June 1, 2019, the expense limit decreased from 1.25% to 1.15%.

(h)

Effective July 1, 2017, the expense limit decreased from 1.35% to 1.25%.

(i)

Effective May 1, 2015, the expense limit decreased from 1.40% to 1.35%.

(j)

The variation in the Fund’s turnover rate from the year ended January 31, 2019 to the year ended January 31, 2020 was primarily due to a change in the investment strategy of the Fund. Portfolio turnover is expected to remain higher as a result of the strategy change. In addition, during the period ended July 31, 2020, portfolio turnover is higher due to increased market volatility.

(i)

Effective May 1, 2015, the expense limit decreased from 2.15% to 2.10%.

(j)

The variation in the Fund’s turnover rate from the year ended January 31, 2019 to the year ended January 31, 2020 was primarily due to a change in the investment strategy of the Fund. Portfolio turnover is expected to remain higher as a result of the strategy change. In addition, during the period ended July 31, 2020, portfolio turnover is higher due to increased market volatility.

Notes to Financial Statements

 

July 31, 2020 (Unaudited)

 

1.  Organization.  Natixis Funds Trust IV (the “Trust”) is organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Declaration of Trust permits the Board of Trustees to authorize the issuance of an unlimited number of shares of the Trust in multiple series. The financial statements for certain funds of the Trust are presented in separate reports. Information presented in this report pertains to AEW Global Focused Real Estate Fund (the “Fund”).

The Fund is a diversified investment company.

The Fund offers Class A, Class C, Class N and Class Y shares.

Class A shares are sold with a maximum front-end sales charge of 5.75%. Class C shares do not pay a front-end sales charge, pay higher Rule 12b-1 fees than Class A shares for ten years (at which point they automatically convert to Class A shares) and may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) of 1.00% if those shares are redeemed within one year of acquisition, except for reinvested distributions. Class N and Class Y shares do not pay a front-end sales charge, a CDSC or Rule 12b-1 fees. Class N shares are offered with an initial minimum investment of $1,000,000. Class Y shares are offered with an initial minimum investment of $100,000. Certain categories of investors are exempted from the minimum investment amounts for Class N and Class Y as outlined in the Fund’s prospectus.

Most expenses can be directly attributed to a Fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed to a Fund are generally apportioned based on the relative net assets of each of the funds in Natixis Funds Trust I, Natixis Funds Trust II, Natixis Funds Trust IV and Gateway Trust (“Natixis Funds Trusts”), Loomis Sayles Funds I and Loomis Sayles Funds II (“Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts”) and Natixis ETF Trust. Expenses of the Fund are borne pro rata by the holders of each class of shares, except that each class bears expenses unique to that class (such as the Rule 12b-1 fees applicable to Class A and Class C), and transfer agent fees are borne collectively for Class A, Class C and Class Y and individually for Class N. In addition, each class votes as a class only with respect to its own Rule 12b-1 Plan. Shares of each class would receive their pro rata share of the net assets of the Fund if the Fund were liquidated. The Trustees approve separate distributions from net investment income on each class of shares.

2.  Significant Accounting Policies.  The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The Fund’s financial statements follow the accounting and reporting guidelines provided for investment companies and are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which require the use of management estimates that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management has evaluated the events and transactions subsequent to

 

23  |    


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

July 31, 2020 (Unaudited)

 

period-end through the date the financial statements were issued and has determined that there were no material events that would require disclosure in the Fund’s financial statements.

a.  Valuation.  Fund securities and other investments are valued at market value based on market quotations obtained or determined by independent pricing services recommended by the adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Fund securities and other investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees, as described below. Market value is determined as follows:

Listed equity securities (including shares of closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds) are valued at the last sale price quoted on the exchange where they are traded most extensively or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid quotation as reported by an independent pricing service. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking an NOCP, at the most recent bid quotations on the applicable NASDAQ Market. Unlisted equity securities (except unlisted preferred equity securities) are valued at the last sale price quoted in the market where they are traded most extensively or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid quotation as reported by an independent pricing service. If there is no last sale price or closing bid quotation available, unlisted equity securities will be valued using evaluated bids furnished by an independent pricing service, if available. In some foreign markets, an official close price and a last sale price may be available from the foreign exchange or market. In those cases, the official close price is used. Debt securities and unlisted preferred equity securities are valued based on evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by an independent pricing service or bid prices obtained from broker-dealers. Broker-dealer bid prices may be used to value debt and unlisted equity securities where an independent pricing service is unable to price a security or where an independent pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security.

Fund securities and other investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. The Fund may also value securities and other investments at fair value in other circumstances such as when extraordinary events occur after the close of a foreign market but prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange. This may include situations relating to a single issuer (such as a declaration of bankruptcy or a delisting of the issuer’s security from the primary market on which it has traded) as well as events affecting the securities markets in general (such as market disruptions or closings and significant fluctuations in U.S. and/or foreign markets). When fair valuing its securities or other investments, the Fund may,

 

    |  24


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

July 31, 2020 (Unaudited)

 

among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities or other market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the time the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) is calculated. Fair value pricing may require subjective determinations about the value of a security, and fair values used to determine a Fund’s NAV may differ from quoted or published prices, or from prices that are used by others, for the same securities. In addition, the use of fair value pricing may not always result in adjustments to the prices of securities held by the Fund.

As of July 31, 2020, securities held by the Fund were fair valued as follows:

 

Equity
securities
1

  

Percentage of
Net Assets

 
$ 37,494,994      38.5

 

1

Certain foreign equity securities were fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees as events occurring after the close of the foreign market were believed to materially affect the value of those securities.

b.  Investment Transactions and Related Investment Income.  Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date plus one day basis for daily NAV calculation. However, for financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are reported on the trade date. Dividend income (including income reinvested) and foreign withholding tax, if applicable, is recorded on the ex-dividend date, or in the case of certain foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is notified, and interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Distributions received from investments in securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments or as a realized gain, respectively. The calendar year-end amounts of ordinary income, capital gains, and return of capital included in dividends received from the Fund’s investments in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) are reported to the Fund after the end of the calendar year; accordingly, the Fund estimates these amounts for accounting purposes until the characterization of REIT distributions is reported to the Fund after the end of the calendar year. Estimates for the period from February 1 through July 31, 2020 are included in the Statement of Operations. Estimates are based on the most recent REIT distribution information available. Interest income is increased by the accretion of discount and decreased by the amortization of premium. In determining net gain or loss on securities sold, the cost of securities has been determined on an identified cost basis. Investment income, non-class-specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund.

c.  Foreign Currency Translation.  The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars, if any, are translated into U.S.

 

25  |    


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

July 31, 2020 (Unaudited)

 

dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars on the respective dates of such transactions.

Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currency, changes in exchange rates between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than investment securities, as of the end of the fiscal period, resulting from changes in exchange rates. Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses and the net change in unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses are disclosed in the Statement of Operations. For federal income tax purposes, net realized foreign exchange gains or losses are characterized as ordinary income, and may, if the Fund has net losses, reduce the amount of income available to be distributed by the Fund.

The values of investment securities are presented at the foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period for financial reporting purposes. Net realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments reported in the Statement of Operations reflect gains or losses resulting from changes in exchange rates and fluctuations which arise due to changes in market prices of investment securities.

The Fund may use foreign currency exchange contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated investments. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts’ terms.

d.  Federal and Foreign Income Taxes.  The Fund intends to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute to its shareholders substantially all of its net investment income and any net realized capital gains at least annually. Management has performed an analysis of the Fund’s tax positions for the open tax years as of July 31, 2020 and has concluded that no provisions for income tax are required. The Fund’s federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Management is not aware of any events that are reasonably possible to occur in the next six months that would result in the amounts of any unrecognized tax benefits significantly increasing or decreasing for the Fund. However, management’s conclusions regarding tax positions taken may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws and accounting regulations and interpretations thereof.

The Fund may be subject to foreign withholding taxes on investment income and taxes on capital gains on investments that are accrued and paid based upon the Fund’s understanding of the tax rules and regulations that exist in the countries in which the

 

    |  26


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

July 31, 2020 (Unaudited)

 

Fund invests. Foreign withholding taxes on dividend and interest income are reflected on the Statement of Operations as a reduction of investment income, net of amounts eligible to be reclaimed. Dividends and interest receivable on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are net of foreign withholding taxes. Foreign withholding taxes where reclaims have been or will be filed are reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as tax reclaims receivable. Capital gains taxes paid are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statement of Operations. Accrued but unpaid capital gains taxes are reflected as foreign taxes payable on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, if applicable, and reduce unrealized gains on investments. In the event that realized gains on investments are subsequently offset by realized losses, taxes paid on realized gains may be returned to the Fund. Such amounts, if applicable, are reflected as foreign tax rebates receivable on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and are recorded as a realized gain when received.

e.  Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders.  Dividends and distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gain distributions are determined annually in accordance with federal tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. When the Fund identifies the character of distributions paid by REITs in the previous calendar year, certain distributions to Fund shareholders may be redesignated as capital gain distributions or, if in excess of taxable income, as a return of capital. Permanent differences are primarily due to differing treatments for book and tax purposes of items such as return of capital distributions received. Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to foreign currency gains and losses, distribution re-designations, passive foreign investment company adjustments and return of capital and capital gain distributions received will result in reclassifications to the capital accounts reported on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Temporary differences between book and tax distributable earnings are primarily due to deferred Trustees’ fees, passive foreign investment company adjustments and wash sales. Amounts of income and capital gain available to be distributed on a tax basis are determined annually, and at other times during the Fund’s fiscal year as may be necessary to avoid knowingly declaring and paying a return of capital distribution. Distributions from net investment income and short-term capital gains are considered to be distributed from ordinary income for tax purposes.

The tax characterization of distributions is determined on an annual basis. The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the year ended January 31, 2020 was as follows:

 

2020 Distributions Paid From:

 

Ordinary

Income

  

Long-Term

Capital Gains

    

Total

 

$5,390,847

   $ 13,940,704      $ 19,331,551  

 

27  |    


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

July 31, 2020 (Unaudited)

 

Distributions paid to shareholders from net investment income and net realized capital gains, based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, are consolidated and reported on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets as Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions paid to shareholders from net investment income and net realized capital gains expressed in per-share amounts, based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, are separately stated and reported within the Financial Highlights.

As of July 31, 2020, the tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a federal tax basis were as follows:

 

Federal tax cost

   $ 93,871,255  
  

 

 

 

Gross tax appreciation

   $ 9,002,806  

Gross tax depreciation

     (6,127,000
  

 

 

 

Net tax appreciation

   $ 2,875,806  
  

 

 

 

Amounts in the table above exclude certain adjustments that will be made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Adjustments may include, but are not limited to, wash sales.

f.  Repurchase Agreements.  The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements, under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement, under which the Fund acquires securities as collateral and agrees to resell the securities at an agreed upon time and at an agreed upon price. It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral for repurchase agreements be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. Certain repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty including possible delays or restrictions upon the Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities. As of July 31, 2020, the Fund had an investment in a repurchase agreement for which the value of the related collateral exceeded the value of the repurchase agreement. The gross value of repurchase agreements is included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities for financial reporting purposes.

g.  Securities Lending.  The Fund has entered into an agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street Bank”), as agent of the Fund, to lend securities to certain designated borrowers. The loans are collateralized with cash or securities in an amount equal to at least 105% or 102% of the market value (including accrued interest) of the loaned international or domestic securities, respectively, when the loan is initiated. Thereafter, the value of the collateral must remain at least 102% of the market value (including accrued interest) of loaned securities for U.S. equities and U.S. corporate debt; at least 105% of the market value (including accrued interest) of loaned

 

    |  28


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

July 31, 2020 (Unaudited)

 

securities for non-U.S. equities; and at least 100% of the market value (including accrued interest) of loaned securities for U.S. Government securities, sovereign debt issued by non-U.S. Governments and non-U.S. corporate debt. In the event that the market value of the collateral falls below the required percentages described above, the borrower will deliver additional collateral on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Fund may bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of the collateral. The Fund invests cash collateral in short-term investments, a portion of the income from which is remitted to the borrowers and the remainder allocated between the Fund and State Street Bank as lending agent.

For the six months ended July 31, 2020, the Fund did not loan securities under this agreement.

h.  Indemnifications.  Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

3.  Fair Value Measurements.  In accordance with accounting standards related to fair value measurements and disclosures, the Fund has categorized the inputs utilized in determining the value of the Fund’s assets or liabilities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

   

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

   

Level 2 – prices determined using other significant inputs that are observable either directly, or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data (which could include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.); and

 

   

Level 3 – prices determined using significant unobservable inputs when quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable such as when there is little or no market activity for an asset or liability (unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities and would be based on the best information available).

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

Details of the major categories of the Fund’s investments are reflected within the Portfolio of Investments.

4.  Purchases and Sales of Securities.  For the six months ended July 31, 2020, purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) were $70,064,259 and $82,177,465 respectively.

5.  Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.

a.  Management Fees.  AEW Capital Management, L.P. (“AEW”) serves as the investment adviser to the Fund. AEW is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Natixis Investment Managers, LLC (“Natixis”), which is part of Natixis Investment Managers, an international asset management group based in Paris, France. Under the terms of the management agreement, the Fund pays a management fee at the annual rate of 0.75%, calculated daily and payable monthly, based on the Fund’s average daily net assets.

AEW has given a binding undertaking to the Fund to waive management fees and/or reimburse certain expenses to limit the Fund’s operating expenses, exclusive of acquired fund fees and expenses, brokerage expenses, interest expense, taxes, organizational and extraordinary expenses such as litigation and indemnification expenses. This undertaking is in effect until May 31, 2021, may be terminated before then only with the consent of the Fund’s Board of Trustees, and is reevaluated on an

 

    |  30

annual basis. Management fees payable, as reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, is net of waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any, pursuant to these undertakings. Waivers/reimbursements that exceed management fees payable are reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as receivable from investment adviser.

For the six months ended July 31, 2020, the expense limits as a percentage of average daily net assets under the expense limitation agreement were as follows:

 

Expense Limit as a Percentage of Average Daily Net Assets

 

Class A

  

Class C

    

Class N

    

Class Y

 
1.15%      1.90%        0.85%        0.90%  

AEW shall be permitted to recover expenses borne under the expense limitation agreement (whether through waiver of management fees or otherwise) on a class by class basis in later periods to the extent the annual operating expenses of a class fall below a class’ expense limits, provided, however, that a class is not obligated to pay such waived/reimbursed fees or expenses more than one year after the end of the fiscal year in which the fees or expenses were waived/reimbursed.

For the six months ended July 31, 2020, the management fees and waiver of management fees for the Fund were as follows:

No expenses were recovered during the six months ended July 31, 2020 under the terms of the expense limitation agreement.

b.  Service and Distribution Fees.  Natixis Distribution, L.P. (“Natixis Distribution”), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Natixis, has entered into a distribution agreement with the Trust. Pursuant to this agreement, Natixis Distribution serves as principal underwriter of the Fund.

Pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, the Trust has adopted a Service Plan relating to the Fund’s Class A shares (the “Class A Plan”) and a Distribution and Service Plan relating to the Fund’s Class C shares (the “Class C Plan”).

Under the Class A Plan, the Fund pays Natixis Distribution a monthly service fee at an annual rate not to exceed 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to the Fund’s Class A shares, as reimbursement for expenses incurred by Natixis Distribution in providing personal services to investors in Class A shares and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

July 31, 2020 (Unaudited)

 

Under the Class C Plan, the Fund pays Natixis Distribution a monthly service fee at an annual rate not to exceed 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to the Fund’s Class C shares, as compensation for services provided by Natixis Distribution in providing personal services to investors in Class C shares and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts.

Also under the Class C Plan, the Fund pays Natixis Distribution a monthly distribution fee at the annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets attributable to the Fund’s Class C shares, as compensation for services provided by Natixis Distribution in connection with the marketing or sale of Class C shares.

For the six months ended July 31, 2020, the service and distribution fees for the Fund were as follows:

 

Service Fees   

Distribution Fees

Class A

  

Class C

  

Class C

$31,996    $1,222    $3,666

c.  Administrative Fees.  Natixis Advisors, L.P. (“Natixis Advisors”) provides certain administrative services for the Fund and contracts with State Street Bank to serve as sub-administrator. Natixis Advisors is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Natixis. Pursuant to an agreement among Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts, Natixis ETF Trust and Natixis Advisors, the Fund pays Natixis Advisors monthly its pro rata portion of fees equal to an annual rate of 0.0540% of the first $15 billion of the average daily net assets of the Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Natixis ETF Trust, 0.0500% of the next $15 billion, 0.0400% of the next $30 billion, 0.0275% of the next $30 billion and 0.0225% of such assets in excess of $90 billion, subject to an annual aggregate minimum fee for the Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Natixis ETF Trust of $10 million, which is reevaluated on an annual basis.

For the six months ended July 31, 2020, the administrative fees were as follows:

 

Administrative Fees

$21,448

d.  Sub-Transfer Agent Fees.  Natixis Distribution has entered into agreements, which include servicing agreements, with financial intermediaries that provide recordkeeping, processing, shareholder communications and other services to customers of the intermediaries that hold positions in the Fund and has agreed to compensate the intermediaries for providing those services. Intermediaries transact with the Fund primarily through the use of omnibus accounts on behalf of their customers who hold positions in the Fund. These services would have been provided by the Fund’s transfer agent and other service providers if the shareholders’ accounts were maintained directly at the Fund’s transfer agent. Accordingly, the Fund has agreed to reimburse Natixis Distribution for all or a portion of the servicing fees paid to

 

    |  32


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

July 31, 2020 (Unaudited)

 

these intermediaries. The reimbursement amounts (sub-transfer agent fees) paid to Natixis Distribution are subject to a current per-account equivalent fee limit approved by the Fund’s Board of Trustees, which is based on fees for similar services paid to the Fund’s transfer agent and other service providers. Class N shares do not bear such expenses.

For the six months ended July 31, 2020, the sub-transfer agent fees (which are reflected in transfer agent fees and expenses in the Statement of Operations) for the Fund were $58,486.

As of July 31, 2020, the Fund owes Natixis Distribution $948 in reimbursements for sub-transfer agent fees (which are reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as payable to distributor).

Sub-transfer agent fees attributable to Class A, Class C and Class Y are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of those classes.

e.  Commissions.  Commissions (including CDSCs) on Fund shares retained by Natixis Distribution during the six months ended July 31, 2020 amounted to $886.

f.  Trustees Fees and Expenses.  The Trust does not pay any compensation directly to its officers or Trustees who are directors, officers or employees of Natixis Advisors, Natixis Distribution, Natixis or their affiliates. The Chairperson of the Board of Trustees receives a retainer fee at the annual rate of $369,000. The Chairperson does not receive any meeting attendance fees for Board of Trustees meetings or committee meetings that he attends. Each Independent Trustee (other than the Chairperson) receives, in the aggregate, a retainer fee at the annual rate of $199,000. Each Independent Trustee also receives a meeting attendance fee of $10,000 for each meeting of the Board of Trustees that he or she attends in person and $5,000 for each meeting of the Board of Trustees that he or she attends telephonically. In addition, the chairperson of the Contract Review Committee, the chairperson of the Audit Committee and the chairperson of the Governance Committee each receive an additional retainer fee at the annual rate of $20,000. Each Contract Review Committee member is compensated $6,000 for each Committee meeting that he or she attends in person and $3,000 for each meeting that he or she attends telephonically. Each Audit Committee member is compensated $6,000 for each Committee meeting that he or she attends in person and $3,000 for each meeting that he or she attends telephonically. These fees are allocated among the funds in the Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Natixis ETF Trust based on a formula that takes into account, among other factors, the relative net assets of each fund. Trustees are reimbursed for travel expenses in connection with attendance at meetings.

A deferred compensation plan (the “Plan”) is available to the Trustees on a voluntary basis. Deferred amounts remain in the Fund until distributed in accordance with the

 

33  |    


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

July 31, 2020 (Unaudited)

 

provisions of the Plan. The value of a participating Trustee’s deferral account is based on theoretical investments of deferred amounts, on the normal payment dates, in certain funds of the Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Natixis ETF Trust as designated by the participating Trustees. Changes in the value of participants’ deferral accounts are allocated pro rata among the funds in the Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Natixis ETF Trust, and are normally reflected as Trustees’ fees and expenses in the Statement of Operations. The portions of the accrued obligations allocated to the Fund under the Plan are reflected as Deferred Trustees’ fees in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Certain officers and employees of Natixis Advisors and its affiliates are also officers and/or Trustees of the Trust.

g.  Reimbursement of Transfer Agent Fees and Expenses.  Natixis Advisors has given a binding contractual undertaking to the Fund to reimburse any and all transfer agency expenses for the Fund’s Class N shares. This undertaking is in effect through May 31, 2021 and is not subject to recovery under the expense limitation agreement described above.

For the six months ended July 31, 2020, Natixis Advisors reimbursed the Fund $721 for transfer agency expenses related to Class N shares.

6.  Class-Specific Transfer Agent Fees and Expenses.  Transfer agent fees and expenses attributable to Class A, Class C and Class Y are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of those classes. Transfer agent fees and expenses attributable to Class N are allocated to Class N.

For the six months ended July 31, 2020, the Fund incurred the following class-specific transfer agent fees and expenses (including sub-transfer agent fees, where applicable):

 

    

Class A

    

Class C

    

Class N

    

Class Y

 

Transfer Agent Fees and Expenses

   $ 20,819      $ 792      $ 721      $ 53,973  

7.  Line of Credit.  The Fund, together with certain other funds of Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Natixis ETF Trust, entered into a $400,000,000 committed unsecured line of credit provided by State Street Bank. Any one Fund may borrow up to $350,000,000 under the line of credit agreement (as long as all borrowings by all Funds in the aggregate do not exceed the $400,000,000 limit at any time), subject to each Fund’s investment restrictions and its contractual obligations under the line of credit. Interest is charged to the Funds based upon the terms set forth in the agreement. In addition, a commitment fee of 0.15% per annum, payable at the end of each calendar quarter, is accrued and apportioned among the participating funds based on their average daily unused portion of the line of credit. The Funds paid an

 

    |  34


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

July 31, 2020 (Unaudited)

 

arrangement fee, an upfront fee, and certain other legal fees in connection with the line of credit agreement, which are being amortized over a period of 364 days and are reflected in legal fees and/or miscellaneous expenses on the Statement of Operations. The unamortized balance is reflected as prepaid expenses on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

For the six months ended July 31, 2020, the Fund had no borrowings under this agreement.

8.  Risk.  The Fund concentrates its investments in real estate securities, including REITs. A fund with a concentrated portfolio is vulnerable to the risks of the industry in which it invests and is subject to greater risks and market fluctuations than funds investing in a broader range of industries. Real estate securities are susceptible to the risks associated with direct ownership of real estate such as declining property values, increases in property taxes, operating expenses, interest rates or competition, zoning changes and losses from casualty and condemnation.

The Fund’s investments in foreign securities may be subject to greater political, economic, environmental, credit/counterparty and information risks. The Fund’s investments in foreign securities also are subject to foreign currency fluctuations and other foreign currency-related risks. Foreign securities may be subject to higher volatility than U.S. securities, varying degrees of regulation and limited liquidity.

Global markets have experienced periods of high volatility triggered by the rapidly evolving public health emergency known as coronavirus (“COVID-19”). As the situation continues to unfold, the extent and duration of the impact that the COVID-19 outbreak may have on financial markets and the economy as a whole remains highly uncertain. If the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on financial markets and the economy continue for an extended period of time, the Fund’s future financial and investment results may be adversely affected.

9.  Concentration of Ownership.  From time to time, a Fund may have a concentration of one or more accounts constituting a significant percentage of shares outstanding. Investment activities by holders of such accounts could have material impacts on the Fund. As of July 31, 2020, based on management’s evaluation of the shareholder account base, the Fund had accounts representing controlling ownership of more than 5% of the Fund’s total outstanding shares. The number of such accounts, based on accounts that represent more than 5% of an individual class of shares, and the aggregate percentage of net assets represented by such holdings were as follows:

 

Number of 5%
Account Holders

  

Percentage of
Ownership

2    29.36%

Omnibus shareholder accounts for which Natixis Advisors understands that the intermediary has discretion over the underlying shareholder accounts or investment

 

35  |    


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

July 31, 2020 (Unaudited)

 

models where a shareholder account may be invested for a non-discretionary customer are included in the table above. For other omnibus accounts, the Fund does not have information on the individual shareholder accounts underlying the omnibus accounts; therefore, there could be other 5% shareholders in addition to those disclosed in the table above.

10.  Capital Shares.  The Fund may issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest without par value. Transactions in capital shares were as follows:

1 

The S&P Target Date® Index Series consists of multi-asset class indices, each corresponding to a specific target retirement date. The asset allocation for each index is determined through an annual survey of target date fund groups with a minimum asset threshold of $100 million. The various asset class exposures of the Indices may include equities, fixed income, REITs, and commodities depending on the allocations reported in the survey. Index returns are calculated daily.

 

2 

Fund performance has been increased by fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any, without which performance would have been lower.

 

3 

Expense ratios are as shown in the Fund’s prospectus in effect as of the date of this report and include the expenses of the underlying funds in which the Fund invests. The expense ratios for the current reporting period can be found in the Financial Highlights section of this report under Ratios to Average Net Assets. Net expenses reflect contractual expense limitations set to expire on 5/31/21. When a Fund’s expenses are below the limitation, gross and net expense ratios will be the same. See Note 5 of the Notes to Financial Statements for more information about the Fund’s expense limitations.

 

4 

Generally accepted accounting principles require adjustments to be made to the net assets of the Fund for financial reporting purposes only, and as such, the total returns reflected above are different from the total returns reported in the financial highlights. The returns presented in the table above are what an investor would have actually experienced.

UNDERSTANDING FUND EXPENSES

As a mutual fund shareholder, you incur different costs: transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions, and ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service fees (12b-1 fees), and other fund expenses. Certain exemptions may apply. These costs are described in more detail in the Fund’s prospectus. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and help you compare these with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The first line in the table of each class of Fund shares shows the actual account values and actual Fund expenses you would have paid on a $1,000 investment in the Fund from February 1, 2020 through July 31, 2020. To estimate the expenses you paid over the period, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60) and multiply the result by the number in the Expenses Paid During Period column as shown below for your class.

The second line in the table of each class of Fund shares provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid on your investment for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown reflect ongoing costs only, and do not include any transaction costs, such as sales charges. Therefore, the second line in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative costs of owning different funds. If transaction costs were included, total costs would be higher.

BOARD APPROVAL OF THE EXISTING ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS

The Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board”), including the Independent Trustees, considers matters bearing on each Fund’s advisory and sub-advisory agreements (collectively, the “Agreements”) at most of its meetings throughout the year. Each year, usually in the spring, the Contract Review Committee of the Board meets to review the Agreements to determine whether to recommend that the full Board approve the continuation of the Agreements, typically for an additional one-year period. After the Contract Review Committee has made its recommendation, the full Board, including the Independent Trustees, determines whether to approve the continuation of the Agreements.

In connection with these meetings, the Trustees receive materials that the Funds’ investment adviser and sub-advisers (collectively, the “Advisers”), believe to be reasonably necessary for the Trustees to evaluate the Agreements. These materials generally include, among other items, (i) information on the investment performance of the Funds and the performance of peer groups of funds and the Funds’ performance benchmarks, (ii) information on the Funds’ advisory and sub-advisory fees and other expenses, including information comparing the Funds’ advisory and sub-advisory fees to the fees charged to institutional accounts with similar strategies managed by the Advisers, if any, and to those of peer groups of funds and information about any applicable expense limitations and/or fee “breakpoints,” (iii) sales and redemption data in respect of the Funds, (iv) information about the profitability of the Agreements to the Advisers and (v) information obtained through the completion by the Advisers of a questionnaire distributed on behalf of the Trustees. The Board, including the Independent Trustees, also considers other matters such as (i) Fund’s investment objective and strategies and the size, education and experience of each Adviser’s investment staff and its use of technology, external research and trading cost measurement tools, (ii) arrangements in respect of the distribution of the Funds’ shares and the related costs, (iii) the allocation of the Funds’ brokerage, if any, including, if applicable, allocations to brokers affiliated with the Adviser and the use of “soft” commission dollars to pay Fund expenses and to pay for research and other similar services, (iv) each Adviser’s policies and procedures relating to, among other things, compliance, trading and best execution, proxy voting and valuation, (v) information about amounts invested by the Funds’ portfolio managers in the Funds or in similar accounts that they manage and (vi) the general economic outlook with particular emphasis on the mutual fund industry. Throughout the process, the Trustees are afforded the opportunity to ask questions of and request additional materials from the Advisers.

In addition to the materials requested by the Trustees in connection with their annual consideration of the continuation of the Agreements, the Trustees receive materials in advance of each regular quarterly meeting of the Board that provide detailed information about the Funds’ investment performance and the fees charged to the Funds for advisory and other services. This information generally includes, among other things, an internal performance rating for each Fund based on agreed-upon criteria, total return information for various periods, and third-party performance rankings for various periods comparing a Fund against similarly categorized funds. The portfolio management team for each Fund or other representatives of the Advisers make periodic presentations to the Contract Review Committee and/or the full Board, and Funds identified as presenting possible performance concerns may be subject to more frequent Board presentations and reviews. In addition, each quarter the Trustees are provided with detailed statistical information about each Fund’s portfolio. The Trustees also receive periodic updates between meetings. These updates have increased in frequency during the COVID-19 crisis.

The Board most recently approved the continuation of the Agreements for a one-year period at its meeting held in June 2020. In considering whether to approve the continuation of the Agreements, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, did not identify any single factor as determinative. Individual Trustees may have evaluated the information presented differently from one another, giving different weights to various factors. Matters considered by the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, in connection with their approval of the Agreements included, but were not limited to, the factors listed below.

The nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds under the Agreements. The Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Advisers and their affiliates to the Funds, and the resources dedicated to the Funds by the Advisers and the Advisers’ affiliates. The Trustees considered that, effective April 30, 2019, Harris Associates L.P. and Loomis, Sayles & Company, L.P. were added as sub-advisers for the Funds, thereby adding additional strategies to the management of the Funds’ portfolios.

The Trustees considered not only the advisory and sub-advisory services provided by the Advisers to the Funds, but also the monitoring and oversight services provided by Natixis Advisors, L.P. (“Natixis Advisors”). They also considered the administrative and shareholder services provided by Natixis Advisors and its affiliates to the Funds. They also took into consideration increases in the services provided resulting from new regulatory requirements. They also considered Wilshire’s specialized expertise in creating “glide paths” and providing investment allocation services.

The Trustees also considered the benefits to shareholders of investing in a mutual fund that is part of a family of funds that offers shareholders the right to exchange shares of one type of fund for shares of another type of fund, and provides a variety of fund and shareholder services.

After reviewing these and related factors, the Trustees concluded, within the context of their overall conclusions regarding each of the Agreements, that the nature, extent and quality of services provided supported the renewal of the Agreements.

Investment performance of the Funds and the Advisers. As noted above, the Trustees received information about the performance of the Funds over various time periods, including information that compared the performance of the Funds to the performance of peer groups and categories of funds and the Funds’ performance benchmarks. In addition, the Trustees reviewed data prepared by an independent third party that analyzed the performance of the Funds using a variety of performance metrics, including metrics that measured the performance of the Funds on a risk adjusted basis.

The Board noted that, through December 31, 2019, each Fund’s one-year performance, stated as percentile rankings within categories selected by the independent third-party data provider, was as follows (where the best performance would be in the first percentile of its category):

 

      One-Year      Three-Year      Five-Year  
Natixis Sustainable Future 2015 Fund      23      N/A        N/A  
Natixis Sustainable Future 2020 Fund      18      N/A        N/A  
Natixis Sustainable Future 2025 Fund      32      N/A        N/A  
Natixis Sustainable Future 2030 Fund      43      N/A        N/A  
Natixis Sustainable Future 2035 Fund      25      N/A        N/A  
Natixis Sustainable Future 2040 Fund      53      N/A        N/A  
Natixis Sustainable Future 2045 Fund      38      N/A        N/A  
Natixis Sustainable Future 2050 Fund      58      N/A        N/A  
Natixis Sustainable Future 2055 Fund      38      N/A        N/A  
Natixis Sustainable Future 2060 Fund      38      N/A        N/A  

In the case of each Fund that had performance that lagged that of a relevant category median as determined by the independent third-party, the Board concluded that other factors relevant to performance supported renewal of the Agreements. These factors included one or more of the following: (1) that the underperformance was attributable, to a significant extent, to investment decisions (such as security selection or sector allocation) by the Advisers that were reasonable and consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and policies; (2) that the Fund’s more recent performance has been stronger relative to its category; and (3) that the Fund is relatively new and therefore has a limited performance history. The Board also considered information about the Funds’ more recent performance, including how that performance had been impacted by the COVID-19 crisis.

The Trustees also considered the Advisers’ performance and reputation generally, the performance of the fund family generally, and the historical responsiveness of the Advisers to Trustee concerns about performance and the willingness of the Advisers to take steps intended to improve performance.

After reviewing these and related factors, the Trustees concluded, within the context of their overall conclusions regarding each of the Agreements, that the performance of the Funds and the Advisers and/or other relevant factors supported the renewal of the Agreements.

The costs of the services to be provided and profits to be realized by the Advisers and their affiliates from their respective relationships with each Fund. The Trustees considered the fees charged to the Funds for advisory, sub-advisory and administrative services, as well as the total expense levels of the Funds. This information included comparisons (provided both by management and also by an independent third-party) of the Funds’ advisory and sub-advisory fees and total expense levels to those of their peer groups and information about the advisory fees charged by the Advisers to comparable accounts (such as institutional separate accounts), as well as information about differences in such fees and the reasons for any such differences. In considering the fees charged to comparable accounts, the Trustees considered, among other things, management’s representations about the differences between managing mutual funds as compared to other types of accounts, including the additional resources required to effectively manage mutual fund assets, the greater regulatory costs associated with the management of such assets, and the entrepreneurial, regulatory and other risks associated with sponsoring and managing mutual funds. In evaluating each Fund’s advisory and sub-advisory fees, the Trustees also took into account the demands, complexity, and quality of the investment management of each Fund and the need for the Advisers to offer competitive compensation and the potential need to expend additional resources to the extent the Funds grow in size. The Trustees considered that over the past several years, management had made recommendations regarding reductions in advisory fee rates, implementation of advisory fee breakpoints and the institution of advisory fee waivers and expense limitations for various funds in the fund family. They noted that each Fund has an expense limitation in place, and they considered the amounts waived or reimbursed by Natixis Advisors for each Fund under their respective expense limitation agreements.

The Trustees noted that each Fund had an advisory fee rate that was above the median of a peer group of funds. In this regard, the Trustees considered that the advisory fee structure and underlying constituents of each Fund is unique in that the advisory fee paid by each Fund varies based on its asset size and its allocations to the sub-advisers. They also noted that each Fund’s portfolio consists of

underlying investments in both affiliated funds and separately managed segments, with the asset allocation and glide path decisions made by an unaffiliated sub-adviser (i.e., Wilshire). The Trustees considered that a comparison to the peer group is challenging as the majority of target-date peers utilize an affiliated fund-of-fund structure, charging little to no advisory fee at the target-date level.

The Trustees also considered the compensation directly or indirectly received by the Advisers and their affiliates from their relationships with the Funds. The Trustees reviewed information provided by management as to the profitability of the Advisers’ and their affiliates’ relationships with the Funds, and information about how expenses are determined and allocated for purposes of profitability calculations. They also reviewed information provided by management about the effect of distribution costs and changes in asset levels on Adviser profitability, including information regarding resources spent on distribution activities. When reviewing profitability, the Trustees also considered information about court cases in which adviser compensation or profitability were issues, the performance of the Funds, the expense levels of the Funds, whether the Advisers had implemented breakpoints and/or expense limitations with respect to such Funds and the overall profit margin of Natixis Investment Managers compared to that of certain other investment managers for which such data was available.

After reviewing these and related factors, the Trustees concluded, within the context of their overall conclusions regarding each of the Agreements, that the advisory and sub-advisory fees and expenses charged to each Fund were fair and reasonable, and that the costs of these services generally and the related profitability of the Advisers and their affiliates in respect of their relationship with the Funds supported the renewal of the Agreements.

Economies of Scale. The Trustees considered the existence of any economies of scale in the provision of services by the Advisers and whether those economies are shared with the Funds through breakpoints in their investment advisory fees or other means, such as expense limitations. The Trustees also considered management’s explanation of the factors that are taken into account with respect to the implementation of breakpoints in investment advisory fees or expense limitations. With respect to economies of scale, the Trustees noted that each of the Funds was subject to an expense limitation. In considering these issues, the Trustees also took note of the costs of the services provided (both on an absolute and on a relative basis) and the profitability to the Advisers and their affiliates of their relationships with the Funds, as discussed above. They also considered that because of their relatively small size, the Funds did not have significant economies of scale.

After reviewing these and related factors, the Trustees concluded, within the context of their overall conclusions regarding each of the Agreements, that the extent to which economies of scale were shared with the Funds supported the renewal of the Agreements.

The Trustees also considered other factors, which included but were not limited to the following:

 

 

The effect of recent market and economic events, including but not limited to the COVID-19 crisis, on the performance, asset levels and expense ratios of each Fund.

 

 

Whether each Fund has operated in accordance with its investment objective and the Fund’s record of compliance with its investment restrictions, and the compliance programs of the Funds and the Advisers. They also considered the compliance-related resources the Advisers and their affiliates were providing to the Funds.

 

 

So-called “fallout benefits” to the Advisers, such as the engagement of affiliates of the Advisers to provide distribution, administrative and brokerage services to the Funds, and the benefits of research made available to the Advisers by reason of brokerage commissions (if any) generated by the Funds’ securities transactions. The Trustees also considered the benefits to the parent company of Natixis Advisors from the retention of the Advisers. The Trustees considered the possible conflicts of interest associated with these fallout and other benefits, and the reporting, disclosure and other processes in place to disclose and monitor such possible conflicts of interest.

 

 

The Trustees’ review and discussion of the Funds’ advisory arrangements in prior years, and management’s record of responding to Trustee concerns raised during the year and in prior years.

Based on their evaluation of all factors that they deemed to be material, including those factors described above, and assisted by the advice of independent counsel, the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, concluded that the each of existing Agreements should be continued through June 30, 2021.

LIQUIDITY RISK MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

Annual Report for the Period Commencing on December 1, 2018 and ending December 31, 2019 (including updates through July 31, 2020)

Effective December 1, 2018, the Funds adopted a liquidity risk management program (the “Program”) pursuant to the requirements of Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Rule”). The Rule requires registered open-end funds, including mutual funds and exchange-traded funds to establish liquidity risk management programs in order to effectively manage fund liquidity and mitigate the risk that a fund could not meet redemption requests without significantly diluting the interests of remaining investors.

The rule requires the Funds to assess, manage and review their liquidity risk considering applicable factors during normal and foreseeable stressed conditions. In fulfilling this requirement, each Fund assesses and reviews (where applicable and amongst other matters) its investment strategy, portfolio holdings, possible investment concentrations, use of derivatives, short-term and long-term cash flow projections, use of cash and cash equivalents, as well as borrowing arrangements and other funding sources. Each Program has established a Program Administrator (“Administrator”) which is the adviser or sub-adviser of the Fund.

In accordance with the Program, each of the Funds’ portfolio investments is classified into one of four liquidity categories based on a determination of a reasonable expectation for how long it would take to convert the investment to cash (or sell or dispose of the investment) without significantly changing its market value.

Each Fund is prohibited from acquiring an investment if, after the acquisition, its holdings of illiquid assets will exceed 15% of its net assets. If a Fund does not hold a majority of highly liquid investments in its portfolio, then the Fund is required to establish a highly liquid investment minimum (“HLIM”). None of the Funds has established an HLIM.

During the period from December 1, 2018 to December 31, 2019, there were no material changes to the Program and no material events that impacted the operation of the Funds’ Programs. During the period, the Funds held sufficient liquid assets to meet redemptions on a timely basis and did not have any illiquid security violations during the period.

During the period January 1, 2020 through July 31, 2020, the Funds held sufficient liquid assets to meet redemptions on a timely basis and did not have any illiquid security violations.

Annual Program Assessment and Conclusion

In the opinion of the Program Administrators, the Program of each Fund approved by the Funds’ Board has been implemented effectively. The Program Administrator has also monitored, assessed and managed each Fund’s liquidity risk regularly and has determined that the Program is operating effectively.

Pursuant to the Rule’s requirements, the Board has received and reviewed a written report prepared by each Fund’s Program Administrator that addressed the operation of the Program, assessed its adequacy and effectiveness and described any material changes made to the Program.

1.  Organization.  Natixis Funds Trust IV (the “Trust”) is organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Declaration of Trust permits the Board of Trustees to authorize the issuance of an unlimited number of shares of the Trust in multiple series. The financial statements for certain funds of the Trust are presented in separate reports. The following funds (individually, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) are included in this report:

Natixis Funds Trust IV:

Natixis Sustainable Future 2015 Fund (the “Sustainable Future 2015 Fund”)

Natixis Sustainable Future 2020 Fund (the “Sustainable Future 2020 Fund”)

Natixis Sustainable Future 2025 Fund (the “Sustainable Future 2025 Fund”)

Natixis Sustainable Future 2030 Fund (the “Sustainable Future 2030 Fund”)

Natixis Sustainable Future 2035 Fund (the “Sustainable Future 2035 Fund”)

Natixis Sustainable Future 2040 Fund (the “Sustainable Future 2040 Fund”)

Natixis Sustainable Future 2045 Fund (the “Sustainable Future 2045 Fund”)

Natixis Sustainable Future 2050 Fund (the “Sustainable Future 2050 Fund”)

Natixis Sustainable Future 2055 Fund (the “Sustainable Future 2055 Fund”)

Natixis Sustainable Future 2060 Fund (the “Sustainable Future 2060 Fund”)

Each Fund is a diversified investment company.

Each Fund offers Class N shares. Class N shares do not pay a front-end sales charge, a contingent deferred sales charge or Rule 12b-1 fees. Class N shares are offered with an initial minimum investment of $1,000,000. Certain categories of investors are exempted from the minimum investment amounts for Class N as outlined in the Funds’ prospectus.

Most expenses can be directly attributed to a Fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed to a Fund are generally apportioned based on the relative net assets of each of the funds in Natixis Funds Trust I, Natixis Funds Trust II, Natixis Funds Trust IV and Gateway Trust (“Natixis Funds Trusts”), Loomis Sayles Funds I and Loomis Sayles Funds II (“Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts”) and Natixis ETF Trust.

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. The Funds’ financial statements follow the accounting and reporting guidelines provided for investment companies and are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which require the use of management estimates that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management has evaluated the events and transactions subsequent to period-end through the date the financial statements were issued and has determined that there were no material events that would require disclosure in the Funds’ financial statements.

a.  Valuation.  Fund securities and other investments are valued at market value based on market quotations obtained or determined by independent pricing services recommended by the adviser or sub-adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Fund securities and other investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the adviser or sub-adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees, as described below. Market value is determined as follows:

Listed equity securities (including shares of closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds) are valued at the last sale price quoted on the exchange where they are traded most extensively or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid quotation as reported by an independent pricing service. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking an NOCP, at the most recent bid quotations on the applicable NASDAQ Market. Unlisted equity securities (except unlisted preferred equity securities) are valued at the last sale price quoted in the market where they are traded most extensively or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid quotation as reported by an independent pricing service. If there is no last sale price or closing bid quotation available, unlisted equity securities will be valued using evaluated bids furnished by an independent pricing service, if available. In some foreign markets, an official close price and a last sale price may be available from the foreign exchange or market. In those cases, the official close price is used. Debt securities and unlisted preferred equity securities are valued based on evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by an independent pricing service or bid prices obtained from broker-dealers. Broker-dealer bid prices may be used to value debt and unlisted equity securities where an independent pricing service is unable to price a security or where an independent pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security. Mutual funds are valued at net asset value.

Fund securities and other investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. The Funds may also value securities and other investments at fair value in other circumstances such as when extraordinary events occur after the close of a foreign market but prior

to the close of the New York Stock Exchange. This may include situations relating to a single issuer (such as a declaration of bankruptcy or a delisting of the issuer’s security from the primary market on which it has traded) as well as events affecting the securities markets in general (such as market disruptions or closings and significant fluctuations in U.S. and/or foreign markets). When fair valuing its securities or other investments, the Funds may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities or other market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the time the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) is calculated. Fair value pricing may require subjective determinations about the value of a security, and fair values used to determine a Fund’s NAV may differ from quoted or published prices, or from prices that are used by others, for the same securities. In addition, the use of fair value pricing may not always result in adjustments to the prices of securities held by a Fund.

b.  Investment Transactions and Related Investment Income.  Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date plus one day basis for daily NAV calculation. However, for financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are reported on the trade date. Dividend income (including income reinvested) and foreign withholding tax, if applicable, is recorded on the ex-dividend date, or in the case of certain foreign securities, as soon as a Fund is notified, and interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Interest income is increased by the accretion of discount and decreased by the amortization of premium, if applicable. Distributions received from investments in securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments or as a realized gain, respectively. In determining net gain or loss on securities sold, the cost of securities has been determined on an identified cost basis.

c.  Foreign Currency Translation.  The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars, if any, are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars on the respective dates of such transactions.

Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currency, changes in exchange rates between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than investment securities, as of the end of the fiscal period, resulting from changes in exchange rates. Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses and the net change in unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses are disclosed in the Statements of Operations. For federal income tax purposes, net realized foreign exchange gains or losses are characterized as ordinary income, and may, if the Funds have net losses, reduce the amount of income available to be distributed by the Funds.

The values of investment securities are presented at the foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period for financial reporting purposes. Net realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments reported in the Statements of Operations reflect gains or losses resulting from changes in exchange rates and fluctuations which arise due to changes in market prices of investment securities.

The Funds may use foreign currency exchange contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated investments. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts’ terms.

d.  Federal and Foreign Income Taxes.  The Trust treats each Fund as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund intends to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute to its shareholders substantially all of its net investment income and any net realized capital gains at least annually. Management has performed an analysis of each Fund’s tax positions for the open tax years as of July 31, 2020 and has concluded that no provisions for income tax are required. The Funds’ federal tax returns for the prior years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Management is not aware of any events that are reasonably possible to occur in the next six months that would result in the amounts of any unrecognized tax benefits significantly increasing or decreasing for the Funds. However, management’s conclusions regarding tax positions taken may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws and accounting regulations and interpretations thereof.

A Fund may be subject to foreign withholding taxes on investment income and taxes on capital gains on investments that are accrued and paid based upon the Fund’s understanding of the tax rules and regulations that exist in the countries in which the Fund invests. Foreign withholding taxes on dividend and interest income are reflected on the Statements of Operations as a reduction of investment income, net of amounts eligible to be reclaimed. Dividends and interest receivable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities are net of foreign withholding taxes. Foreign withholding taxes where reclaims have been or will be filed are reflected on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as tax reclaims receivable. Capital gains taxes paid are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statements of Operations. Accrued but unpaid capital gains taxes are reflected as foreign taxes payable on the Statements of Assets

and Liabilities, if applicable, and reduce unrealized gains on investments. In the event that realized gains on investments are subsequently offset by realized losses, taxes paid on realized gains may be returned to a Fund. Such amounts, if applicable, are reflected as foreign tax rebates receivable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and are recorded as a realized gain when received.

e.  Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders.  Dividends and distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Permanent differences are primarily due to differing treatments for book and tax purposes of items such as paydown gains and losses, premium amortization, distribution re-designations and distributions received from underlying funds. Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions, net investment income and net realized gains will result in reclassifications to capital accounts reported on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Temporary differences between book and tax distributable earnings are primarily due to deferred Trustees’ fees, wash sales and premium amortization. Amounts of income and capital gain available to be distributed on a tax basis are determined annually, and at other times during the Funds’ fiscal year as may be necessary to avoid knowingly declaring and paying a return of capital distribution. Distributions from net investment income and short-term capital gains are considered to be distributed from ordinary income for tax purposes.

The tax characterization of distributions is determined on an annual basis. The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the year ended January 31, 2020 was as follows:

 

     2020 Distributions Paid From:  

Fund

Sustainable Future 2060 Fund

     81,555        155,655        237,210  

Distributions paid to shareholders from net investment income and net realized capital gains, based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, are consolidated and reported on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets as Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions paid to shareholders from net investment income and net realized capital gains expressed in per-share amounts, based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, are separately stated and reported within the Financial Highlights.

Amounts in the table above exclude certain adjustments that will be made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Adjustments may include, but are not limited to, wash sales.

f.  Indemnifications.  Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts with service providers that contain general 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, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.

g.  New Accounting Pronouncement.  In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standard Update 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) (“ASU 2020-04”). In response to concerns about structural risks of interbank offered rates, and particularly the risk of cessation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), which is expected to occur no later than December 31, 2021, regulators have undertaken reference rate reform initiatives to identify alternative reference rates that are more observable or transaction based and less susceptible to manipulation. ASU 2020-04 provides temporary guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. ASU 2020-04 is elective and applies to all entities, subject to meeting certain criteria, that have contracts that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 amendments offer optional expedients for contract modifications that would allow an entity to account for such modifications by prospectively adjusting the effective interest rate, instead of evaluating each contract, in accordance with existing accounting standards, as to whether reference rate modifications constitute the establishment of new contracts or the continuation of existing contracts. ASU 2020-04 amendments are currently effective and an entity may elect to apply its provisions as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020. No Fund contracts have yet been impacted by reference rate reform. Management expects to apply the optional expedients when appropriate.

3.  Fair Value Measurements.  In accordance with accounting standards related to fair value measurements and disclosures, the Funds have categorized the inputs utilized in determining the value of each Fund’s assets or liabilities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

   

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

   

Level 2 – prices determined using other significant inputs that are observable either directly, or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data (which could include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.); and

 

   

Level 3 – prices determined using significant unobservable inputs when quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable such as when there is little or no market activity for an asset or liability (unobservable inputs reflect each Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities and would be based on the best information available).

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 to value the Funds’ investments as of July 31, 2020, at value:

A deferred compensation plan (the “Plan”) is available to the Trustees on a voluntary basis. Deferred amounts remain in the Funds until distributed in accordance with the provisions of the Plan.

Changes in the value of participants’ deferral accounts are allocated pro rata among the funds in the Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Natixis ETF Trust, and are normally reflected as Trustees’ fees and expenses in the Statements of Operations. The portions of the accrued obligations allocated to the Funds under the Plan are reflected as Deferred Trustees’ fees in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Financial statements of Loomis Sayles Inflation Protected Securities Fund, Loomis Sayles Limited Term Government and Agency Fund, Mirova Global Green Bond Fund and Mirova International Sustainable Equity Fund are available, without charge, on the Funds’ website at im.natixis.com.

g.  Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses.  Each Fund will indirectly realize its pro rata share of the fees and expenses of the underlying funds in which it invests. These fees and expenses are reflected in the valuation of the underlying funds.

6.  Line of Credit.  Each Fund, together with certain other funds of Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Natixis ETF Trust, entered into a $400,000,000 committed unsecured line of credit provided by State Street Bank. Any one Fund may borrow up to $350,000,000 under the line of credit agreement (as long as all borrowings by all Funds in the aggregate do not exceed the $400,000,000 limit at any time), subject to each Fund’s investment restrictions and its contractual obligations under the line of credit. Interest is charged to the Funds based upon the terms set forth in the agreement. In addition, a commitment fee of 0.15% per annum, payable at the end of each calendar quarter, is accrued and apportioned among the participating funds based on their average daily unused portion of the line of credit. The Funds paid an arrangement fee, an upfront fee, and certain other legal fees in connection with the line of credit agreement, which are being amortized over a period of 364 days and are reflected in legal fees and/or miscellaneous expenses on the Statements of Operations. The unamortized balance is reflected as prepaid expenses on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

July 31, 2020 (Unaudited)

 

For the six months ended July 31, 2020, Sustainable Future 2020 Fund had an average daily balance on the line of credit (for those days on which there were borrowings) of $1,100,000 at a weighted average interest rate of 1.19%. Interest expense incurred on the line of credit was $36.

7.  Concentration of Ownership.  From time to time, a Fund may have a concentration of one or more accounts constituting a significant percentage of shares outstanding. Investment activities by holders of such accounts could have material impacts on the Fund. As of July 31, 2020, based on management’s evaluation of the shareholder account base, the Funds had accounts representing controlling ownership of more than 5% of the Funds’ total outstanding shares. The number of such accounts, based on accounts that represent more than 5% of an individual class of shares, and the aggregate percentage of net assets represented by such holdings were as follows:

Omnibus shareholder accounts for which Natixis Advisors understands that the intermediary has discretion over the underlying shareholder accounts or investment models where a shareholder account may be invested for a non-discretionary customer are included in the table above. For other omnibus accounts, the Fund does not have information on the individual shareholder accounts underlying the omnibus accounts; therefore, there could be other 5% shareholders in addition to those disclosed in the table above.

8.  Risk.  Global markets have experienced periods of high volatility triggered by the rapidly evolving public health emergency known as coronavirus (“COVID-19”). As the situation continues to unfold, the extent and duration of the impact that the COVID-19 outbreak may have on financial markets and the economy as a whole remains highly uncertain. If the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on financial markets and the economy continue for an extended period of time, the Funds’ future financial and investment results may be adversely affected.

9.  Interest Expense.  The Funds incur interest expense on cash overdrafts at the custodian or from use of the line of credit. Interest expense incurred for the six months ended July 31, 2020 is reflected on the Statements of Operations.

10.  Capital Shares.  Each Fund may issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, without par value. Transactions in capital shares were as follows:
