President's Letter

Dear Shareholder,

I am pleased to present this semi-annual shareholder report for the Neuberger Berman Income Funds covering the six-month period ended April 30, 2022 (the reporting period).

The U.S. economy was resilient during the first half of the reporting period in the face of several headwinds, including the impact from COVID-19 and its variants, supply chain issues, labor shortages and 40-year high inflation. Economic growth then contracted over the first quarter of 2022, driven by the aforementioned issues, along with sharply rising interest rates and repercussions from the war in Ukraine.

Another key factor impacting the economy was the U.S. Federal Reserve Board's (Fed) monetary policy pivot in the face of persistent high inflation. As widely telegraphed by the central bank, it raised the federal funds rate 0.25% (25 basis points) to a range between 0.25% and 0.50% at its meeting in March 2022—the first rate hike since 2018. The Fed currently expects to raise rates several more times in the coming year, with Chair Jerome Powell indicating that more aggressive increases may be appropriate as it looks to curb inflation. The Fed is also expected to begin reducing its balance sheet (quantitative tightening), coinciding with hawkish monetary policy moves.

Turning to the bond market, both short- and long-term Treasury yields moved sharply higher. The increase in rates was driven by expectations for aggressive Fed tightening, elevated inflation, and continued supply chain and labor shortages. Meanwhile, credit spreads widened as the period progressed. All told, the U.S. broad taxable investment-grade bond market, as measured by the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, returned -9.47% during the reporting period.

As we look ahead, the global growth outlook has been clouded by crosscurrents in the form of rising commodities and geopolitical events. However, we believe a number of factors should enable the global economy to avoid recession in 2022. First, although decelerating, the U.S. economy was in a strong position entering the current spike in inflation. We believe that this provides a substantial cushion to withstand monetary policy changes; in sharp contrast to past scenarios when growth was fairly minimal and vulnerable to shocks. Key buffers also could help protect the expansion. In the U.S., we believe the consumer remains in excellent shape, with debt levels close to record lows while savings remain ample.

All told, we believe the upward movement in interest rates and growth uncertainty creates pockets of opportunity to deploy capital, albeit with some caution given the significant change in market dynamics associated with monetary policy tightening. In our view, investors should prioritize liquidity in the coming months, as the ability to buy and sell amid positive/negative outcomes has become more limited. We believe this should help us to capitalize on opportunities and manage exposures as markets evolve post the COVID-era accommodation period.

Thank you for your support and trust. We look forward to continue serving your investment needs in the years to come.

Sincerely,

JOSEPH V. AMATO
PRESIDENT AND CEO

Core Bond Fund Commentary (Unaudited)

Neuberger Berman Core Bond Fund Institutional Class delivered a -9.66% total return for the six-month period ended April 30, 2022 (the reporting period) and underperformed its benchmark, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (the Index), which saw a -9.47% total return for the same period. (Performance for all share classes is provided in the table immediately following this letter.)

U.S. Treasury yields moved sharply higher during the reporting period as inflation hit a four-decade high, and, in response, the U.S. Federal Reserve Board (Fed) indicated it would aggressively raise interest rates. Ongoing supply chain frictions and global macroeconomic uncertainty were both exacerbated by the tragic war in Ukraine and the reintroduction of COVID-19 restrictions in China. On the other hand, consumer spending was generally resilient, and, at least in the U.S., the impact from the pandemic appeared to wane. Rising yields pressured fixed income market performance, as yields and bond prices move in the opposite direction. Meanwhile, U.S. credit spreads widened given periods of risk aversion as well as the Fed's monetary tightening.

In terms of relative performance, the Fund's duration and yield curve positioning were the primary contributors for the reporting period. Underweight exposure in investment grade (IG) credit versus the Index also added value. Conversely, security selection in IG credit was the largest detractor as issuer positioning in the banking, communications and consumer non-cyclical subsectors led negative relative returns. Security selection in asset-backed securities (ABS), our diversified overweight to securitized sectors—including commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS), mortgage credit, ABS and agency mortgage-backed securities—and out-of-benchmark exposure to collateralized loan obligations (CLOs) also weighed on relative performance.

The Fund's use of futures contracts contributed positively to performance during the reporting period.

There were several adjustments made to the Fund during the reporting period. We actively managed duration and yield curve positioning, tactically shifting between underweight and roughly neutral duration positioning versus the Index. On the back of wider spreads, we increased exposure to IG credit, focusing on select issuers which we believe offer relative value while remaining mindful of increased macro risks. Additionally, we increased exposure to securitized sectors, including ABS, credit risk transfers, CMBS and CLOs. We remain constructive on securitized sectors as recent spread widening has occurred in spite of a still robust market outlook for consumer and housing fundamentals.

In our view, inflation levels are likely to peak in the coming months but remain at relatively high levels warranting continued attention from central banks. We believe goods inflation, which has been the forefront of recent price increases, is likely to ease, only to be supplanted by gains in services. All told, it is our view that the environment is likely to require central banks to be aggressive in terms of interest rate hikes—something that has contributed to the negative returns across fixed income during the reporting period. We believe that the market's expectations for rapid and significant central bank tightening are appropriate today even if the Fed may ultimately be unable to deliver on this aggressive path amid increasing challenges to growth. Given our base scenarios, we anticipate the coming 12 months as a period in which interest rate volatility could normalize; we believe that the fate of spread sectors will hinge on whether the economy and markets can withstand pressure from tighter monetary policy and diminishing prospects for growth abroad.

The performance data quoted represent past performance and do not indicate future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. For current performance data, including current to the most recent month-end, please visit www.nb.com/performance.

The results shown in the table reflect the reinvestment of income dividends and other distributions, if any. The results do not reflect the effect of taxes a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or on the redemption of Fund shares.

The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate and shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Returns would have been lower if Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC ("NBIA") had not reimbursed certain expenses and/or waived a portion of the investment management fees during certain of the periods shown. Repayment by a class (of expenses previously reimbursed and/or fees previously waived by NBIA) will decrease the class's returns. Please see Note B in the Notes to Financial Statements for specific information regarding expense reimbursement and/or fee waiver arrangements.

For the period ended April 30, 2022, the 30-day SEC yields were 2.74%, 3.14%, 2.74%, 1.97% and 3.26% for Investor Class, Institutional Class, Class A, Class C and Class R6 shares, respectively. Absent expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers, the 30-day SEC yields would have been 2.60%, 3.11%, 2.73%, 1.94% and 3.21% for Investor Class, Institutional Class, Class A, Class C and Class R6 shares, respectively.

As stated in the Fund's most recent prospectus, the total annual operating expense ratios for fiscal year 2021 were 0.88%, 0.43%, 0.80%, 1.57% and 0.33% for Investor Class, Institutional Class, Class A, Class C and Class R6 shares, respectively (before expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers, if any, and after restatement). The expense ratios were 0.79%, 0.39%, 0.79%, 1.54% and 0.29% for Investor Class, Institutional Class, Class A, Class C and Class R6 shares, respectively, after expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers and restatement. The expense ratios for the semi-annual period ended April 30, 2022, can be found in the Financial Highlights section of this report.

Returns shown with a sales charge reflect the deduction of the current maximum initial sales charge of 4.25% for Class A shares and the contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) for Class C shares. The CDSC for Class C shares is 1.00%, which is reduced to 0% after 1 year. The performance of the Fund's share classes will differ primarily due to different sales charge structures and class expenses. Please see the prospectus for more information about sales charge structures, if any, and class expenses for your share class.

Emerging Markets Debt Fund Commentary (Unaudited)

Neuberger Berman Emerging Markets Debt Fund Institutional Class generated a -12.85% total return for the six-month period ended April 30, 2022 (the reporting period), and outperformed its benchmark, a blend consisting of 50% J.P. Morgan Government Bond Index—Emerging Markets (GBI-EM) Global Diversified, 25% J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index (EMBI®)—Global Diversified, and 25% J.P. Morgan Corporate Emerging Markets Bond Index (CEMBI)—Diversified (collectively, the Index), which delivered a -13.29% total return for the same period. (Performance for all share classes is provided in the table immediately following this letter.)

The reporting period saw headwinds for fixed income markets from the resurgence of COVID-19, high inflation, the specter of rising rates, and Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The more transmissible Omicron variant of COVID-19 led to renewed restrictions in multiple countries and weighed on risk assets. Inflation rose in the winter and U.S. Consumer Price Index soared to a 40-year high of +7.9% in February while Euro Area inflation rose to +5.9%—the highest since the formation of the single currency. In its final meetings of 2021, the U.S. Federal Reserve Board (Fed) announced that it would be tapering asset purchases and telegraphed rate hikes for 2022. In March, the Fed increased its policy rate for the first time since the pandemic. The European Central Bank signaled it would consider a rate hike this year. This drove the worst performance for Treasuries and bonds in at least two decades. All of this drove a flattening of the U.S. Treasury curve amid a sharp move higher in short end U.S. rates, thereby negatively impacting fixed income markets. Finally, Russia's invasion of Ukraine and consequent sanctions that isolated significant parts of Russia's economy and its financial markets pressured commodity markets globally. For the reporting period, the hard currency sovereign debt index delivered a -15.45% total return, the corporate debt index delivered -11.44%, and the local currency index returned -13.17%.

The Fund outperformed the Index driven by bottom-up positioning while tactical asset allocation was also additive. Bottom-up relative performance was positive across corporates and local currency, while hard currency sovereigns detracted. The primary driver of relative outperformance across the portfolio was the underweight exposure to Russia in hard currency sovereigns and corporates, as well as the ruble. Our analysis identified particularly weak scores on factors like voice & accountability, rule of law and corruption in Russia. In late January, the tail risk surrounding Russia and a potential military conflict was reflected in our top-down scoring process, and therefore added to our cautiousness in Russia and limited our appetite to add risk generally. The primary detractor during the month was the overweight to Ukraine in hard currency sovereigns and corporates.

Aside from the impact of Russia and Ukraine, the overweight exposure to high yielding sovereigns including Angola and Argentina was positive. However, this was entirely offset by the underweight to investment grade countries. In addition, the overweight exposure to Sri Lanka and El Salvador, which traded at distressed levels, detracted from performance. Instrument selection in Romania detracted as well. In the corporate space, country allocation detracted due to the underweight to lower beta1 Asian counties. However, the overweight exposure to Latin America, including Brazil, Mexico, and Argentina was additive. Positioning in the China property sector was a drag on performance due to the announced defaults in the sector. The local currency part of the Fund outperformed mainly thanks to local rates positioning, driven by duration underweights in Poland and Thailand versus the Index, as well as by an overweight to Brazil. Positioning across emerging currencies was positive as well, driven by underweights in the Turkish lira and Chinese renminbi. The positioning in the Mexican peso and Kazakh tenge detracted from performance.

The Fund's aggregate use of futures, forward foreign currency, and swap contracts detracted from performance during the reporting period.

The contribution from tactical allocation was positive over the reporting period. There was a positive contribution from an underweight to U.S. Treasury duration in an environment of rising yields. In addition, the basket of currencies was additive to performance.

During the reporting period there were a number of changes across the Fund. We remain overweight in hard currency versus local currency, with the hard currency overweight in sovereigns. While we added to commodity-related emerging markets (EM) foreign currency (FX) in our tactical asset allocation overlay, overall, we maintain a more defensive tactical


4


positioning than usual, expressed mainly through an underweight duration, a long credit default swap, and an underweight renminbi position. Due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, we are removing exposures to Russia from the Fund's portfolio when and where possible, depending on liquidity.

We downgraded our 2022 EM growth estimates compared to the beginning of the year (4.4% in January vs 3.6% in April). EM are still projected to grow faster than developed markets, as momentum had been tapering off as seen in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development indicators. The surge in energy costs presents a considerable headwind and prospective shock to growth.

Rising inflation continues to put pressure on global markets. While many EM implemented monetary policy to address inflationary headwinds in 2021, they remain persistent. Disruptions to the supply chain, including increased input costs across commodities as well as elevated transport costs, remain persistent.

1  Beta is a measure of the systematic risk of a portfolio. It is the covariance of the portfolio and a market index divided by the variance of the market index. Beta measures the historical sensitivity of a portfolio's returns to movements in the market index. The beta of the market index will always be one. A portfolio with a beta above the market index (i.e. >1) means that the portfolio has greater volatility than the market index. If the beta of the portfolio is 1.2, a market increase in return of 1% implies a 1.2% increase in the portfolio's return. If the beta of the portfolio is 0.8, a market decrease in return of 1% implies a 0.8% decrease in the portfolio's return.

Floating Rate Income Fund Commentary (Unaudited)

Neuberger Berman Floating Rate Income Fund Institutional Class generated a -0.29% total return for the six-month period ended April 30, 2022 (the reporting period) and underperformed its benchmark, the S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index (the Index), which provided a 0.59% total return for the same period. (Performance for all share classes is provided in the table immediately following this letter.)

The senior floating rate bank loan market, as measured by the Index, outperformed the overall fixed income market, as measured by the Bloomberg U.S. Universal Bond Index, with modestly positive total returns during the reporting period. U.S. Treasury yields moved sharply higher during the reporting period as inflation hit a four-decade high, the U.S. Federal Reserve Board (Fed) indicated it would aggressively raise interest rates, and the tragic war in Ukraine triggered numerous supply shortages and fueled spikes in commodity prices. Meanwhile, consumer spending was generally resilient and the impact from COVID-19 and its variants appeared to wane. While credit spreads widened given the risk aversion, floating rate loans held up significantly better than longer dated fixed income given its lower interest rate risk.

The Fund tactically adjusted its position in non-floating rate securities during the period. We have the flexibility to allocate up to 20% of the Fund's portfolio to these securities, usually fixed-rate senior bonds. Relative value between floating rate loans and fixed-rate bonds fluctuated given the heightened volatility and increased focus on duration risk. Against this backdrop, the Fund's non-floating rate allocation ended the reporting period at approximately 5.9% of net assets compared to 2.7% of net assets at beginning of the reporting period.

In terms of the Fund's portfolio credit quality, an overweight to B and an underweight to BB rated issuers versus the Index added the most to returns. Conversely, security selection within and an underweight to unrated securities, security selection within B and an overweight to and security selection within CCC and below rated issuers detracted the most from results.

The Fund's use of swap contracts detracted from performance during the reporting period.

From a sector perspective, security selection within and an underweight to retailers, an overweight to oil & gas, and an underweight to food products were the primary contributors to returns. In contrast, security selection within and an overweight to healthcare, security selection within and an underweight to electronics (technology), and security selection within chemicals were the largest detractors from performance.

Looking ahead, we believe senior floating rate loan yields are compensating investors for the benign default outlook, will continue to provide durable income and are attractive compared to other fixed income alternatives, especially given what the forward curve is implying for loan yields as the Fed continues to raise interest rates. While the Russia-Ukraine conflict and tightening of financial conditions are creating incremental volatility, U.S. real GDP growth is estimated to be around trend for 2022, and input costs for many issuers are being passed on to end markets and consumers. Our analysts continue to focus on the outlook for issuer margins given rising input costs. Mitigating this in our view, however, are strong consumer and business balance sheets, growing nominal wages, solid jobs growth and businesses working to clear supply bottlenecks. While there is close to zero direct exposure to Russia and Ukraine in the loan market, our global research team continues to monitor the investment thesis for each issuer in the Fund's portfolio given the secondary impacts related to commodity prices as a result of other disruptions made worse by the conflict. Even with the heightened uncertainty, which is resulting in short-term volatility, we believe our bottom-up, fundamental credit research focused on security selection while seeking to avoid credit deterioration and putting only our "best ideas" into portfolios, position us well to take advantage of the increased volatility.

The results shown in the table reflect the reinvestment of income dividends and other distributions, if any. The results do not reflect the effect of taxes a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or on the redemption of Fund shares.

The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate and shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Returns would have been lower if Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC ("NBIA") had not reimbursed certain expenses and/or waived a portion of the investment management fees during certain of the periods shown. Repayment by a class (of expenses previously reimbursed and/or fees previously waived by NBIA) will decrease the class's returns. Please see Note B in the Notes to Financial Statements for specific information regarding expense reimbursement and/or fee waiver arrangements.

For the period ended April 30, 2022, the 30-day SEC yields were 3.97%, 3.60% and 2.85% for Institutional Class, Class A and Class C shares, respectively. Absent expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers, the 30-day SEC yields would have been 3.84%, 3.45% and 2.71% for Institutional Class, Class A and Class C shares, respectively.

As stated in the Fund's most recent prospectus, the total annual operating expense ratios for fiscal year 2021 were 0.79%, 1.19% and 1.93% for Institutional Class, Class A and Class C shares, respectively (before expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers, if any, and after restatement). The expense ratios were 0.61%, 0.98% and 1.73% for Institutional Class, Class A and Class C shares, respectively, after expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers and restatement. The expense ratios for the semi-annual period ended April 30, 2022, can be found in the Financial Highlights section of this report.

Returns shown with a sales charge reflect the deduction of the current maximum initial sales charge of 4.25% for Class A shares and the contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) for Class C shares. The CDSC for Class C shares is 1.00%, which is reduced to 0% after 1 year. The performance of the Fund's share classes will differ primarily due to different sales charge structures and class expenses.

High Income Bond Fund Commentary (Unaudited)

Neuberger Berman High Income Bond Fund Investor Class generated a -7.20% total return for the six-month period ended April 30, 2022 (the reporting period), performing in line with its benchmark, the ICE BofA U.S. High Yield Constrained Index (the Index), which provided a -7.21% total return for the period. (Performance for all share classes is provided in the table immediately following this letter.)

The overall high yield market, as measured by the Index, generated weak results, but outperformed all other longer duration fixed income categories during the reporting period. U.S. Treasury yields moved sharply higher as inflation hit a four-decade high, the U.S. Federal Reserve Board (Fed) indicated it would aggressively raise interest rates, and the tragic war in Ukraine triggered numerous supply shortages and fueled spikes in commodity prices. Meanwhile, consumer spending was generally resilient and the impact from COVID-19 and its variants appeared to wane. Concurrently, U.S. credit spreads widened given the risk aversion and the tightening of financial conditions.

From a sector perspective, security selection within diversified financial services, security selection within and an overweight to gas distribution, and security selection within and an underweight to food, beverage & tobacco versus the Index were the top contributors to relative performance. In contrast, security selection within real estate & homebuilders and security selection within and overweights to both telecommunications and technology & electronics detracted the most from results.

In terms of the Fund's portfolio credit quality, security selection within and an underweight to BB, and overweights to B and unrated issuers contributed the most to relative performance. Conversely, security selection within CCC and below rated issuers were the primary detractors.

The Fund's use of swap contracts detracted from performance during the reporting period.

As it became increasingly clear that the Fed would have to become more aggressive with tightening monetary policy, we selectively increased the Fund's exposure to shorter duration BB and B rated issuers, while reducing some CCC and below rated issuers that had performed well. As credit spreads widened over the period, we subsequently looked to decrease the Fund's exposure to higher beta1 (risk) issuers, particularly in the CCC and below credit tier. Based on individual credit decisions and looking to reduce duration, the Fund's BBB and above rated exposure also decreased over the reporting period.

Looking ahead, we believe current valuations present an attractive opportunity. While the Russia-Ukraine conflict and tightening of financial conditions are creating incremental volatility, U.S. real GDP growth is estimated to be around trend for 2022 and input costs for many issuers are being passed on to end markets. It is our view that as real growth slows back toward trend, this will help to alleviate some of the inflationary pressures. Our analysts continue to focus on the outlook for issuer margins given rising input costs. In our view, mitigating this are strong consumer and business balance sheets, growing wages, solid jobs growth and businesses working to clear supply bottlenecks. While there is near zero direct exposure to Russia and Ukraine in the high yield market, our global research team continues to monitor the investment thesis for each issuer in the Fund's portfolio given the secondary impacts related to commodity prices and trade disruptions. Even with the heightened uncertainty, which is resulting in short-term volatility, we believe our bottom-up, fundamental credit research focused on security selection while seeking to avoid credit deterioration and putting only our "best ideas" into portfolios, position us well to take advantage of the increased volatility.

1  Beta is a measure of the systematic risk of a portfolio. It is the covariance of the portfolio and a market index divided by the variance of the market index. Beta measures the historical sensitivity of a portfolio's returns to movements in the market index. The beta of the market index will always be one. A portfolio with a beta above the market index (i.e. >1) means that the portfolio has greater volatility than the market index. If the beta of the portfolio is 1.2, a market increase in return of 1% implies a 1.2% increase in the portfolio's return. If the beta of the portfolio is 0.8, a market decrease in return of 1% implies a 0.8% decrease in the portfolio's return.

Municipal High Income Fund Commentary (Unaudited)

Neuberger Berman Municipal High Income Fund Institutional Class generated a -9.49% total return for the six-month period ended April 30, 2022 (the reporting period) and underperformed its benchmark, a blend consisting of 65% Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index and 35% Bloomberg Municipal High Yield Index (collectively, the Index), which provided a -8.08% total return for the same period. (Performance for all share classes is provided in the table immediately following this letter.)

The investment-grade municipal bond market generated weak results but outperformed the taxable investment-grade bond market during the reporting period. All told, the Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index returned -7.90% for the reporting period, whereas the overall taxable investment-grade bond market, as measured by the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, returned -9.47%. U.S. Treasury yields moved sharply higher as inflation hit a four-decade high, the U.S. Federal Reserve Board (Fed) indicated it would aggressively raise interest rates, and the tragic war in Ukraine triggered numerous supply shortages. Meanwhile, consumer spending was generally resilient and the impact from COVID-19 and its variants appeared to wane. Rising yields caused the overall bond market to post poor results, as yields and bond prices move in the opposite direction.

Looking at the Fund's performance, our credit quality and maturity biases detracted from results. In particular, overweights to lower coupon, lower-quality and longer-term (9+ years) bonds were headwinds for performance, although this was partially offset by positive security selection in the longer-term space. An out-of-benchmark allocation to revenue bonds was not rewarded, as they underperformed their general obligation bond counterparts. In particular, an allocation to certain tobacco bonds and security selection in the hospital sector negatively impacted returns. On the upside, having a shorter duration than the benchmark contributed to results given the rising interest rate environment. An allocation to municipal bonds issued by Puerto Rico was also additive for relative performance, though security selection detracted.

In terms of adjustments, during the reporting period and given the volatile investment environment, we modestly increased the overall credit quality of the portfolio, as the rising rate environment allowed us to capture higher absolute yields from certain investment-grade securities.

We believe that the Fed's transition to tighter monetary policy will continue to lead to more volatility in the municipal bond market. The selloff in municipals has been driven by a sharp move higher in rates as the market repriced a more hawkish Fed. It is our view that in order for the municipal market to find an equilibrium, we will likely need to see more stability in the Treasury market. Calling market bottoms is a tough endeavor, but given the size of the rates selloff, it is our view that the worst could be behind us. Valuations have also improved when AAA municipals are measured against Treasuries. In addition, we believe that the technical environment may improve during the summer as net supply is expected to turn negative. We have always believed that the best and most consistent way to add value in the municipal market is through security selection. In our view, the opportunities to add value through security selection will continue to increase. We believe our duration positioning and historically high levels of portfolio liquidity should allow us to deploy capital when pockets of volatility arise. We think our investment style, which is centered on a spirited relative value debate as we consider investments, is well suited to environment which may lie ahead.

Sincerely,

The expense ratios for the semi-annual period ended April 30, 2022, can be found in the Financial Highlights section of this report.

Returns shown with a sales charge reflect the deduction of the current maximum initial sales charge of 4.25% for Class A shares and the contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) for Class C shares. The CDSC for Class C shares is 1.00%, which is reduced to 0% after 1 year. The performance of the Fund's share classes will differ primarily due to different sales charge structures and class expenses.

Municipal Impact Fund Commentary (Unaudited)

Neuberger Berman Municipal Impact Fund Institutional Class generated a -7.74% total return for the six-month period ended April 30, 2022 (the reporting period) and outperformed its benchmark, the Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index (the Index), which provided a -7.90% total return for the same period. (Performance for all share classes is provided in the table immediately following this letter.)

The investment-grade municipal bond market generated weak results but outperformed the taxable investment-grade bond market during the reporting period. All told, the Index returned -7.90% for the reporting period, whereas the overall taxable investment-grade bond market, as measured by the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, returned -9.47%. U.S. Treasury yields moved sharply higher as inflation hit a four-decade high, the U.S. Federal Reserve Board (Fed) indicated it would aggressively raise interest rates, and the tragic war in Ukraine triggered numerous supply shortages. Meanwhile, consumer spending was generally resilient and the impact from COVID-19 and its variants appeared to wane. Rising yields caused the overall bond market to post poor results, as yields and bond prices move in the opposite direction.

Looking at the Fund's performance, having a shorter duration than the Index contributed to returns given the rising interest rate environment. Security selection of bonds rated AAA and an overweight to bonds rated A versus the Index was also beneficial. On the downside, credit quality, overall, detracted from results. This was partially driven by an overweight to lower quality, higher yielding securities, which lagged higher-rated bonds given the uncertain macro environment and periods of investor risk aversion. An overweight to the housing sector was also a drag on returns. We like these securities, as they offer attractive yields and generally finance projects for low to moderate-income first-time buyers. However, they tend to be longer-term lower coupon securities and underperformed over the period.

In terms of adjustments, some were made to the Fund, including modestly shortening the Fund's duration during the reporting period. We added to the credit quality of the portfolio, as the rising rate environment allowed us to capture higher absolute yields from certain investment-grade securities. As always, the Fund maintained its exposure to what we believed were projects that were impactful for their communities.

We believe that the Fed's transition to tighter monetary policy will continue to lead to more volatility in the municipal bond market. The selloff in municipals has been driven by a sharp move higher in rates as the market repriced a more hawkish Fed. In order for the municipal market to find an equilibrium, it is our view that we will likely need to see more stability in the Treasury market. Calling market bottoms is a tough endeavor, but given the size of the rates selloff, it is our view that the worst may be behind us. Valuations have also improved when AAA municipals are measured against Treasuries. In addition, we believe that the technical environment may improve during the summer as net supply is expected to turn negative. We have always believed that the best and most consistent way to add value in the municipal market is through security selection. In our view, the opportunities to add value through security selection will continue to increase. We believe our duration positioning and historically high levels of portfolio liquidity should allow us to deploy capital when pockets of volatility arise. We think our investment style, which is centered on a spirited relative value debate as we consider investments, is well suited to environment which may lie ahead.

The performance data quoted represent past performance and do not indicate future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. For current performance data, including current to most recent month-end, please visit www.nb.com/performance.

The results shown in the table reflect the reinvestment of income dividends and other distributions, if any. The results do not reflect the effect of taxes a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or on the redemption of Fund shares.

The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate and shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Returns would have been lower if Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC ("NBIA") had not reimbursed certain expenses and/or waived a portion of the investment management fees during certain of the periods shown. Repayment by a class (of expenses previously reimbursed and/or fees previously waived by NBIA) will decrease the class's returns. Please see Note B in the Notes to Financial Statements for specific information regarding expense reimbursement and/or fee waiver arrangements.

For the period ended April 30, 2022, the 30-day SEC yields were 2.07%, 1.69% and 0.94% for Institutional Class, Class A and Class C shares, respectively. The tax-equivalent yields were 3.50%, 2.85% and 1.59% for Institutional Class, Class A and Class C shares, respectively, for a shareholder in the highest federal income tax bracket (37% plus 3.8% Medicare contribution tax).9 Absent expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers, the 30-day SEC yields would have been 1.62%, 0.59% and -2.40% for Institutional Class, Class A and Class C shares, respectively. A negative 30-day SEC yield results when a fund's accrued expenses exceed its income for the relevant period. Please note, in such instances the 30-day SEC yield may not equal the Fund's actual rate of income earned and distributed by the Fund and, therefore, a per share distribution may still be paid to shareholders.

As stated in the Fund's most recent prospectus, the total annual operating expense ratios for fiscal year 2021 were 0.84%, 1.43%, and 2.22% for Institutional Class, Class A and Class C shares, respectively (before expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers, if any). The expense ratios were 0.43%, 0.80% and 1.55% for Institutional Class, Class A and Class C shares, respectively, after expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers. The expense ratios for the semi-annual period ended April 30, 2022, can be found in the Financial Highlights section of this report.

Municipal Intermediate Bond Fund Commentary (Unaudited)

Neuberger Berman Municipal Intermediate Bond Fund Investor Class generated a -7.95% total return for the six-month period ended April 30, 2022 (the reporting period) and underperformed its benchmark, the Bloomberg 7-Year General Obligation (G.O.) Index (the Index), which provided a -6.87% total return for the same period. (Performance for all share classes is provided in the table immediately following this letter.)

The investment-grade municipal bond market generated weak results but outperformed the taxable investment-grade bond market during the reporting period. All told, the Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index returned -7.90% for the reporting period, whereas the overall taxable investment-grade bond market, as measured by the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, returned -9.47%. U.S. Treasury yields moved sharply higher as inflation hit a four-decade high, the U.S. Federal Reserve Board (Fed) indicated it would aggressively raise interest rates, and the tragic war in Ukraine triggered numerous supply shortages. Meanwhile, consumer spending was generally resilient and the impact from COVID-19 and its variants appeared to wane. Rising yields caused the overall bond market to post poor results, as yields and bond prices move in the opposite direction.

In terms of the Fund's performance, having a longer duration than the Index detracted from returns given the rising interest rate environment. An overweight to lower coupon/longer duration bonds versus the Index was a headwind for relative results, although this was partially offset by positive security selection in the space. An out-of-benchmark allocation to revenue bonds was rewarded. In particular, allocations to certain tobacco, hospital and housing bonds negatively impacted returns. Having an allocation to BBB and below investment-grade securities was also detrimental, as these higher yielding securities underperformed. However, security selection within BBB was additive. On the upside, asset allocation to Puerto Rico-issued bonds and security selection of New York-issued municipal bonds was additive for results.

As the reporting period progressed, we increased the credit quality of the Fund, as the rising rate environment allowed us to capture higher absolute yields from certain investment-grade securities.

We believe that the Fed's transition to tighter monetary policy will continue to lead to more volatility in the municipal bond market. The selloff in municipals has been driven by a sharp move higher in rates as the market repriced a more hawkish Fed. In order for the municipal market to find an equilibrium, it is our view that we will likely need to see more stability in the Treasury market. Calling market bottoms is a tough endeavor, but given the size of the rates selloff, it is our view that the worst may be behind us.

Short Duration Bond Fund Commentary (Unaudited)

Neuberger Berman Short Duration Bond Fund Investor Class generated a -4.11% total return for the six-month period ended April 30, 2022 (the reporting period) and underperformed its benchmark, the Bloomberg 1-3 Year U.S. Government/Credit Bond Index (the Index), which provided a -3.24% total return for the same period. (Performance for all share classes is provided in the table immediately following this letter.)

U.S. Treasury yields moved sharply higher during the reporting period as inflation hit a four-decade high, the U.S. Federal Reserve Board (Fed) indicated it would aggressively raise interest rates, and the tragic war in Ukraine triggered numerous supply shortages. Meanwhile, consumer spending was generally resilient and the impact from COVID-19 and its variants appeared to wane. Rising yields caused the overall bond market to post poor results, as yields and bond prices move in the opposite direction. Meanwhile, U.S. credit spreads widened given periods of risk aversion, as well as the Fed's monetary tightening, the latter of which could be a headwind for corporate earnings.

The largest detractor from the Fund's performance during the reporting period was its exposure to corporate bonds. Their spreads widened due to their duration and interest rate sensitivity, and not, in our view, because of weakening corporate fundamentals. Elsewhere, the allocation to structured products, including commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) and mortgage credit were headwinds for results. Futures contracts were used to manage the Fund's overall duration positioning.

The Fund's use of futures and swap contracts detracted from performance during the reporting period.

We maintained the Fund's overall positioning over the reporting period, focusing on a diversified mix of non-Treasury spread sectors. We pared down our exposures to Treasury securities and our small allocation to municipal bonds. The proceeds were then redeployed into shorter duration high quality corporate bonds, as well as asset-backed securities and CMBS. We favored these securities as they offered attractive yields, in our view, as rates had reset higher.

The global growth outlook has been muddled by crosscurrents in the form of rising commodities and geopolitical events. However, we believe a number of factors should enable the global economy to avoid recession in 2022. First, although decelerating, the U.S. economy was in a strong position entering the current spike in inflation, providing substantial cushion to withstand policy changes. In the U.S., we believe the consumer remains in excellent shape, with debt levels close to record lows while savings remain ample. Looking at the past, recessions usually follow periods of over-investment and resulting market collapse, or problems within the financial system. We don't see either as present today. In our view, inflation levels are likely to peak over the coming months but remain at uncomfortably high levels for central banks. Broadly speaking, it seems likely to us that central bank tightening expectations have peaked, with increased growth uncertainty allowing policymakers to look through elevated inflation and adjust policy rate strategy over the next 12 months. In our base scenario, we believe a monetary policy shift from accommodation to normalization, with numerous rate hikes and balance sheet adjustments will drive intermediate Treasury yields moderately higher over the next 12 months. Given our base scenarios, we see the coming 12 months as a period in which interest rate volatility should normalize, supporting spread sectors.

Sincerely,

Returns would have been lower if Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC ("NBIA") had not reimbursed certain expenses and/or waived a portion of the investment management fees during certain of the periods shown. Repayment by a class (of expenses previously reimbursed and/or fees previously waived by NBIA) will decrease the class's returns. Please see Note B in the Notes to Financial Statements for specific information regarding expense reimbursement and/or fee waiver arrangements.

For the period ended April 30, 2022, the 30-day SEC yields were 3.32%, 3.22%, 3.52%, 3.15% and 2.39% for Investor Class, Trust Class, Institutional Class, Class A and Class C shares, respectively.

Strategic Income Fund Commentary (Unaudited)

Neuberger Berman Strategic Income Fund Institutional Class delivered a -7.45% total return for the six-month period ended April 30, 2022 (the reporting period), outperforming its benchmark, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (the Index), which provided a -9.47% total return for the same period. (Performance for all share classes is provided in the table immediately following this letter.)

U.S. Treasury yields moved sharply higher during the reporting period as inflation hit a four-decade high and, in response, the U.S, Federal Reserve Board (Fed) indicated it would aggressively raise interest rates. Ongoing supply chain frictions and global macroeconomic uncertainty were both exacerbated by the tragic war in Ukraine and the reintroduction of COVID-19 restrictions in China. On the other hand, consumer spending was generally resilient, and, at least in the U.S., the impact from the pandemic appeared to wane. Rising yields pressured fixed income market performance, as yields and bond prices move in the opposite direction. Meanwhile, U.S. credit spreads widened given periods of risk aversion as well as the Fed's monetary tightening.

Against a backdrop of rising interest rates, the Fund's duration underweight versus the Index was the largest driver of relative outperformance over the reporting period, followed by underweight exposures in investment grade (IG) credit and agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS). The Fund's allocation to bank loans—one of the few fixed income markets to generate positive returns over the period—also added value. Security selection in commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) and the Fund's exposure to credit risk transfers and collateralized loan obligations contributed modestly. Exposure to U.S. and European high yield, emerging markets debt, financial hybrids and municipal bonds were the primary detractors for the reporting period.

The Fund's aggregate use of futures, swap, forward foreign currency, bond forward and option contracts contributed positively to performance during the reporting period.

We made several adjustments to the Fund during the reporting period. In late 2021, we increased the Fund's cash position with the view that market volatility was likely to be elevated in the coming quarters. We then used available capital to opportunistically add exposure as valuations became more attractive, in our view. Specifically, we increased exposure to high-quality spread sectors, such as IG credit, agency MBS and municipal bonds. We also added to securitized credit, emphasizing non-agency MBS, asset-backed securities and CMBS. We reduced exposure to bank loans, taking profits following strong performance relative to other fixed income markets. Overall, we remain overweight credit but at reduced levels versus 2021.

In our view, inflation levels are likely to peak in the coming months but remain at relatively high levels warranting continued attention from central banks. We believe goods inflation, which has been the forefront of recent price increases, is likely to ease, only to be supplanted by gains in services. All told, it is our view that the environment is likely to require central banks to be aggressive in terms of interest rate hikes—something that has contributed to the negative returns across fixed income during the reporting period. We believe that the market's expectations for rapid and significant central bank tightening are appropriate today even if the Fed may ultimately be unable to deliver on this aggressive path amid increasing challenges to growth. Given our base scenarios, we anticipate the coming 12 months as a period in which interest rate volatility could normalize; we believe that the fate of spread sectors will hinge on whether the economy and markets can withstand pressure from tighter monetary policy and diminishing prospects for growth abroad.

Sincerely,

As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemption proceeds (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (if applicable), and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in U.S. dollars) of investing in a Fund and compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

This table is designed to provide information regarding costs related to your investments. The following examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the six month period ended April 30, 2022 and held for the entire period. The table illustrates the Fund's costs in two ways:

Actual Expenses and Performance:

 

The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses in dollars, based on the Fund's actual performance during the period indicated. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first section of the table under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During the Period" to estimate the expenses you paid over the period.

 
Hypothetical Example for
Comparison Purposes:
 

The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return at 5% per year before expenses. This return 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 for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a Fund versus other funds. To do so, compare the expenses shown in this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.

 

Please note that the expenses in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not include any transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads) (if applicable). Therefore, the information under the heading "Hypothetical (5% annual return before expenses)" is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Notes to Financial Statements Income Funds (Unaudited)

Note A—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

1  General: Neuberger Berman Income Funds (the "Trust") is a Delaware statutory trust organized pursuant to an Amended and Restated Trust Instrument dated March 27, 2014. The Trust is registered as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), and its shares are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Each of Neuberger Berman Core Bond Fund ("Core Bond"), Neuberger Berman Emerging Markets Debt Fund ("Emerging Markets Debt"), Neuberger Berman Floating Rate Income Fund ("Floating Rate Income"), Neuberger Berman High Income Bond Fund ("High Income"), Neuberger Berman Municipal High Income Fund ("Municipal High Income"), Neuberger Berman Municipal Impact Fund ("Municipal Impact"), Neuberger Berman Municipal Intermediate Bond Fund ("Municipal Intermediate Bond"), Neuberger Berman Short Duration Bond Fund ("Short Duration") and Neuberger Berman Strategic Income Fund ("Strategic Income") (each individually a "Fund," and collectively, the "Funds") is a separate operating series of the Trust. Each Fund is diversified. Under the 1940 Act, the status of a Fund that was registered as non-diversified may, under certain circumstances, change to that of a diversified fund (Emerging Markets Debt became diversified in March 2022). Municipal Impact became diversified in June 2018 in connection with its investment strategy change. Four Funds offer Investor Class shares, two offer Trust Class shares, nine offer Institutional Class shares, nine offer Class A shares, nine offer Class C shares, one offers Class R3 shares, three offer Class R6 shares and one offers Class E shares. The Trust's Board of Trustees (the "Board") may establish additional series or classes of shares without the approval of shareholders.

A balance indicated with a "—", reflects either a zero balance or a balance that rounds to less than 1.

The assets of each Fund belong only to that Fund, and the liabilities of each Fund are borne solely by that Fund and no other series of the Trust.

Each Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 946 "Financial Services—Investment Companies."

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires Management to make estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2  Portfolio valuation: In accordance with ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurement" ("ASC 820"), all investments held by each of the Funds are carried at the value that Management believes a Fund would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment under current market conditions. Various inputs, including the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability in the market, are considered in valuing the Funds' investments, some of which are discussed below. Significant Management judgment may be necessary to value investments in accordance with ASC 820.

ASC 820 established a three-tier hierarchy of inputs to create a classification of value measurements for disclosure purposes. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below.

•  Level 1 – unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments

•  Level 2 – other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, amortized cost, etc.)

•  Level 3 – unobservable inputs (including a Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

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


216


The value of the Funds' investments in equity securities and exchange-traded funds ("ETFs"), for which market quotations are readily available, is generally determined by Management by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services based on the latest sale price quoted on a principal exchange or market for that security (Level 1 inputs). Securities traded primarily on the NASDAQ Stock Market are normally valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price ("NOCP") provided by NASDAQ each business day. The NOCP is the most recently reported price as of 4:00:02 p.m., Eastern Time, unless that price is outside the range of the "inside" bid and asked prices (i.e., the bid and asked prices that dealers quote to each other when trading for their own accounts); in that case, NASDAQ will adjust the price to equal the inside bid or asked price, whichever is closer. Because of delays in reporting trades, the NOCP may not be based on the price of the last trade to occur before the market closes. If there is no sale of a security on a particular day, the independent pricing services may value the security based on market quotations.

The value of the Funds' investments in debt securities is determined by Management primarily by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services based on readily available bid quotations, or if quotations are not available, by methods which include various considerations based on security type (generally Level 2 inputs). In addition to the consideration of yields or prices of securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type, indications as to values from dealers, and general market conditions, the following is a description of other Level 2 inputs and related valuation techniques used by independent pricing services to value certain types of debt securities held by the Funds:

Corporate Bonds. Inputs used to value corporate debt securities generally include relative credit information, observed market movements, sector news, U.S. Treasury yield curve or relevant benchmark curve, and other market information, which may include benchmark yield curves, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, comparable securities, and reference data, such as market research publications, when available ("Other Market Information").

Convertible Bonds. Inputs used to value convertible bonds generally include underlying stock data, conversion rates, credit specific details, relevant listed bond and preferred stock prices and Other Market Information.

U.S. Treasury Obligations. Inputs used to value U.S. Treasury securities generally include quotes from several inter-dealer brokers and Other Market Information.

U.S. Government Agency Securities. Inputs used to value U.S. Government Agency securities generally include obtaining benchmark quotes and Other Market Information.

Asset-Backed Securities and Mortgage-Backed Securities. Inputs used to value asset-backed securities and mortgage-backed securities generally include models that consider a number of factors, which may include the following: prepayment speeds, cash flows, spread adjustments and Other Market Information.

Collateralized Loan Obligations (CLOs): The value of collateralized loan obligations is primarily determined by cash flow data, relevant loan pricing data and market color, and research from market participants and trading desks (Level 2 or 3 inputs).

High Yield Securities. Inputs used to value high yield securities generally include a number of observations of equity and credit default swap curves related to the issuer and Other Market Information.

Municipal Debt Securities. Inputs used to value municipal debt securities include current trades, bid-wanted lists (which informs the market that a holder is interested in selling a position and that offers will be considered), offerings, general information on market movement, direction, trends, and specific data on specialty issues.

Emerging Markets Debt and Foreign Government Securities. Inputs used to value emerging markets debt and foreign government securities generally include dealer quotes, bond market activity, discounted cash flow models, and other relevant information such as credit spreads, benchmark curves and Other Market Information.


217


The value of forward foreign currency contracts ("forward FX contracts") is determined by Management by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services based on actual traded currency rates on independent pricing services' networks, along with other traded and quoted currency rates provided to the pricing services by leading market participants (Level 2 inputs).

The value of loan assignments is determined by Management primarily by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services based on broker quotes (generally Level 2 or Level 3 inputs depending on the number of quotes available).

The value of futures contracts is determined by Management by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services at the settlement price at the market close (Level 1 inputs).

The value of bond forward contracts ("bond forwards") is determined by Management by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services using a model that considers the current price of the underlying bond and the forward curve (Level 2 inputs).

The value of interest rate swaps is determined by Management primarily by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services based on references to the underlying rates including the local overnight index swap rate and the respective interbank offered forward rate to produce the daily price. The present value is calculated based off of expected cash flows based on swap parameters along with reference to the underlying yield curve and reference rate (Level 2 inputs).

The value of inflation swaps is determined by Management primarily by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services based on references to the underlying inflation rates including forward inflation expectation rate and the respective interbank offered forward rate to produce the daily price. The present value is calculated based off of expected cash flows based on swap parameters along with reference to the underlying forward inflation curve and reference rate (Level 2 inputs).

The value of credit default swaps is determined by Management by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services using a model that considers a number of factors, which may include default probabilities, credit curves, recovery rates and cash flows (Level 2 inputs).

The value of total return swaps is determined by Management by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services using the underlying asset and stated benchmark interest rate (Level 2 inputs).

Option contracts that are traded over-the-counter are generally valued on the basis of quotations provided by broker-dealers or prices provided by independent pricing services who use a series of techniques including simulated pricing models and/or curve fitting (bootstrapping), which aids in determining the present value of the contracts. The pricing models use inputs that are observed from actively quoted markets such as issuer details, indices, spreads, interest rates, yield curves, credit curves, volatility surfaces, and exchange rates (Level 2 inputs).

Management has developed a process to periodically review information provided by independent pricing services for all types of securities.

Investments in non-exchange traded investment companies with a readily determinable fair value are valued using the respective fund's daily calculated net asset value ("NAV") per share (Level 2 inputs).

If a valuation is not available from an independent pricing service, or if Management has reason to believe that the valuation received does not represent the amount a Fund might reasonably expect to receive on a current sale in an orderly transaction, Management seeks to obtain quotations from brokers or dealers (generally considered Level 2 or Level 3 inputs depending on the number of quotes available). If such quotations are not readily available, the security is valued using methods the Board has approved in the good-faith belief that the resulting valuation will reflect the fair value of the security. Inputs and assumptions considered in determining the fair value of a security based on Level 2 or Level 3 inputs may include, but are not limited to, the type of the security; the initial cost of the security; the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security's disposition; the price and extent of public


218


trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies; quotations or evaluated prices from broker-dealers and/or pricing services; information obtained from the issuer and/or analysts; an analysis of the company's or issuer's financial statements; an evaluation of the inputs that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.

The value of the Funds' investments in foreign securities is generally determined using the same valuation methods and inputs as other Fund investments, as discussed above. Foreign security prices expressed in local currency values are normally translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates as of 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time on days the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") is open for business. The Board has approved the use of ICE Data Services ("ICE") to evaluate the prices of foreign debt securities as of the time as of which a Fund's share price is calculated. ICE utilizes benchmark spread and yield curves and evaluates available market activity from the local close to the time as of which a Fund's share price is calculated (Level 2 inputs) to assist in determining prices for certain foreign debt securities. In the absence of precise information about the market values of these foreign securities as of the time as of which a Fund's share price is calculated, the Board has determined on the basis of available data that prices adjusted or evaluated in this way are likely to be closer to the prices a Fund could realize on a current sale than are the prices of those securities established at the close of the foreign markets in which the securities primarily trade.

Fair value prices are necessarily estimates, and there is no assurance that such a price will be at or close to the price at which the security is next quoted or next trades.

In December 2020, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") adopted Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, which establishes requirements for determining fair value in good faith for purposes of the 1940 Act, including related oversight and reporting requirements. The rule also defines when market quotations are "readily available" for purposes of the 1940 Act, which is the threshold for determining whether a fund must fair value a security. The rule became effective on March 8, 2021, however, the SEC adopted an eighteen-month transition period beginning from the effective date. Management is currently evaluating the rule.

3  Foreign currency translations: Core Bond, Emerging Markets Debt, Floating Rate Income, High Income, Short Duration and Strategic Income may invest in foreign securities denominated in foreign currencies. The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are normally translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time, on days the NYSE is open for business, to determine the value of investments, other assets and liabilities. Purchase and sale prices of securities, and income and expenses, are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing rate of exchange on the respective dates of such transactions. Net unrealized foreign currency gain/(loss), if any, arises from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities, as a result of changes in exchange rates and is stated separately in the Statements of Operations.

4  Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on trade date for financial reporting purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign dividends, as soon as a Fund becomes aware of the dividends. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income, including accretion of discount (adjusted for original issue discount, where applicable) and amortization of premium, where applicable, is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions and foreign currency transactions, if any, are recorded on the basis of identified cost and stated separately in the Statements of Operations. Included in net realized gain/(loss) on investments are proceeds from the settlement of class action litigation(s) in which certain of the Funds participated as a class member. The amount of such proceeds for the six months ended April 30, 2022, were $13 and $24 for Short Duration and Strategic Income, respectively.

5  Income tax information: Each Fund is treated as a separate entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes. It is the policy of each Fund to continue to qualify for treatment as a regulated investment company ("RIC") by complying with the requirements of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code applicable to RICs and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains to its shareholders. To the extent a Fund distributes


219


substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains to shareholders, no federal income or excise tax provision is required.

ASC 740 "Income Taxes" sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of a tax position taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax positions as an income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. The Funds are subject to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities for returns filed for the tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not yet expired. As of April 30, 2022, the Funds did not have any unrecognized tax positions.

For federal income tax purposes, the estimated cost and unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) in value of investments held at April 30, 2022 were as follows:

Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities held by each Fund, timing differences and differing characterization of distributions made by each Fund. The Funds may also utilize earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemption of their shares as a part of the dividends-paid deduction for income tax purposes.

Any permanent differences resulting from different book and tax treatment are reclassified at year-end and have no impact on net income, NAV or NAV per share of the Funds. For the year ended October 31, 2021, the Funds recorded permanent reclassifications primarily related to one or more of the following: prior year true up adjustments, non deductible excise taxes and deemed distributions on shareholder redemptions. For the year ended October 31, 2021, the Funds recorded the following permanent reclassifications:

The temporary differences between book basis and tax basis distributable earnings are primarily due to: losses disallowed and/or recognized on wash sales and straddles, timing differences of fund level distributions, mark-to-market adjustments on swaps, futures and forward FX contracts, passive foreign investment companies, amortization of bond premium, defaulted bond adjustments, amortization of organizational expenses and tax adjustments related to treasury inflation protection securities, swap contracts and other investments.

To the extent each Fund's net realized capital gains, if any, can be offset by capital loss carryforwards, it is the policy of each Fund not to distribute such gains. Capital loss carryforward rules allow for RICs to carry forward capital losses indefinitely and to retain the character of capital loss carryforwards as short-term or long-term. As

determined at October 31, 2021, the following Funds had unused capital loss carryforwards available for federal income tax purposes to offset future net realized capital gains, if any, as follows:

During the year ended October 31, 2021, Floating Rate Income, High Income, Municipal High Income, Short Duration and Strategic Income utilized capital loss carryforwards of $1,358,584, $65,734,276, $1,863,487, $470,858 and $75,140,054, respectively.

6  Distributions to shareholders: Each Fund earns income, net of expenses, daily on its investments. Ordinarily, distributions from net investment income are declared on each business day and paid monthly, and distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are generally distributed once a year (usually in December). Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-date.

7  Expense allocation: Certain expenses are applicable to multiple funds within the complex of related investment companies. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund. Expenses of the Trust that are not directly attributable to a particular series of the Trust (e.g., a Fund) are allocated among the series of the Trust, on the basis of relative net assets, except where a more appropriate allocation of expenses to each of the series can otherwise be made fairly. Expenses borne by the complex of related investment companies, which includes open-end and closed-end investment companies for which NBIA serves as investment manager, that are not directly attributable to a particular investment company in the complex (e.g., the Trust) or series thereof are allocated among the investment companies in the complex or series thereof on the basis of relative net assets, except where a more appropriate allocation of expenses to each of the investment companies in the complex or series thereof can otherwise be made fairly. Each Fund's expenses (other than those specific to each class) are allocated proportionally each day among its classes based upon the relative net assets of each class.

8  When-issued/delayed delivery securities: Each Fund may purchase securities with delivery or payment to occur at a later date beyond the normal settlement period. At the time a Fund enters into a commitment to purchase a security, the transaction is recorded and the value of the security is reflected in the NAV. The price of such security and the date when the security will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The value of the security may vary with market fluctuations. No interest accrues to a Fund until payment takes place. At the time a Fund enters into this type of transaction it is required to segregate cash or other liquid assets at least equal to the amount of the commitment. When-issued and delayed delivery transactions can have a leverage-like effect on a Fund, which can increase fluctuations in the Fund's NAV. Certain risks may arise upon entering into when-issued or delayed delivery securities transactions from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors. Additionally, losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities.

Each Fund may also enter into a TBA agreement and "roll over" such agreement prior to the settlement date by selling the obligation to purchase the pools set forth in the agreement and entering into a new TBA agreement for future delivery of pools of mortgage-backed securities. TBA mortgage-backed securities may increase prepayment risks because the underlying mortgages may be less favorable than anticipated by a Fund.


222


9  Foreign taxes: Foreign taxes withheld, if any, represent amounts withheld by foreign tax authorities, net of refunds recoverable.

Foreign capital gains on certain foreign securities may be subject to foreign taxes, which are accrued as applicable. Emerging Markets Debt and Strategic Income accrue capital gains tax on unrealized and realized gains for certain securities. At April 30, 2022, Emerging Markets Debt and Strategic Income had accrued capital gains taxes of $15,208 and $27,742 respectively, which is reflected in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. For the six months ended April 30, 2022, Emerging Markets Debt and Strategic Income had realized capital gains taxes of $14,431 and $5,336, respectively, which is reflected in the Statements of Operations.

As a result of several European Court of Justice ("ECJ") court cases in certain countries across the European Union ("EU"), certain of the Funds may file tax reclaims for previously withheld taxes on dividends earned in those countries ("ECJ tax reclaims"). These additional filings are subject to various administrative proceedings by the local jurisdictions' tax authorities within the EU, as well as a number of related judicial proceedings. Income recognized, if any, for ECJ tax reclaims would be reflected as "Interest and other income—unaffiliated issuers" in the Statements of Operations and the cost to file these additional ECJ tax reclaims, if any, would be reflected as "Miscellaneous and other fees" in the Statements of Operations. When the ECJ tax reclaim is "more likely than not" to not be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities due to the uncertainty that exists as to the ultimate resolution of these proceedings, the likelihood of receipt of these ECJ tax reclaims, and the potential timing of payment, no amounts are reflected in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

10  Investments in foreign securities: Investing in foreign securities may involve sovereign and other risks, in addition to the credit and market risks normally associated with domestic securities. These additional risks include the possibility of adverse political and economic developments (including political instability, nationalization, expropriation, or confiscatory taxation) and the potentially adverse effects of unavailability of public information regarding issuers, less governmental supervision and regulation of financial markets, reduced liquidity of certain financial markets, and the lack of uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards or the application of standards that are different or less stringent than those applied in the United States. Foreign securities also may experience greater price volatility, higher rates of inflation, and delays in settlement.

11  Derivative instruments: Certain Funds' use of derivatives during the six months ended April 30, 2022, is described below. Please see the Schedule of Investments for each Fund's open positions in derivatives, if any, at April 30, 2022. The disclosure requirements of ASC 815 "Derivatives and Hedging" ("ASC 815") distinguish between derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting and those that do not. Because investment companies value their derivatives at fair value and recognize changes in fair value through the Statements of Operations, they do not qualify for hedge accounting. Accordingly, even though a Fund's investments in derivatives may represent economic hedges, they are considered non-hedge transactions for purposes of this disclosure.

In October 2020, the SEC adopted new regulations governing the use of derivatives by registered investment companies. Rule 18f-4 will impose limits on the amount of derivatives a fund could enter into, eliminate the asset segregation framework currently used by funds to comply with Section 18 of the 1940 Act, and require funds whose use of derivatives is more than a limited specified exposure to establish and maintain a derivatives risk management program and appoint a derivatives risk manager. While the new rule became effective February 19, 2021, funds will not be required to fully comply with the new rule until August 19, 2022. It is not currently clear what impact, if any, the new rule will have on the availability, liquidity or performance of derivatives. When fully implemented, the new rule may require changes in how a Fund will use derivatives, may adversely affect a Fund's performance and may increase costs related to a Fund's use of derivatives.

Futures contracts: During the six months ended April 30, 2022, Core Bond used futures to manage or adjust the risk profile and investment exposure of the Fund, including to adjust the duration and yield curve exposure of the Fund's portfolio. During the six months ended April 30, 2022, Emerging Markets Debt and Short Duration used futures for economic hedging purposes, including as a maturity or duration management device. During the six months ended April 30, 2022, Strategic Income used futures to manage or adjust the risk profile and investment


223


exposure of the Fund or individual positions, to obtain or reduce exposure to certain markets, to establish net short or long positions for markets, currencies or securities, to adjust the duration of the Fund's portfolio and to enhance total return.

Futures contracts may include certain options on exchange-traded futures contracts. At the time a Fund enters into a futures contract, it is required to deposit with the futures commission merchant a specified amount of cash or liquid securities, known as "initial margin," which is a percentage of the value of the futures contract being traded that is set by the exchange upon which the futures contract is traded. Each day, the futures contract is valued at the official settlement price of the board of trade or U.S. commodity exchange on which such futures contract is traded. Subsequent payments, known as "variation margin," to and from the broker are made on a daily basis, or as needed, as the market price of the futures contract fluctuates. Daily variation margin adjustments, arising from this "mark to market," are recorded by a Fund as unrealized gains or losses.

Although some futures by their terms call for actual delivery or acquisition of the underlying securities or currency, in most cases the contracts are closed out prior to delivery by offsetting purchases or sales of matching futures. When the contracts are closed or expire, a Fund recognizes a gain or loss. Risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility there may be an illiquid market, possibly at a time of rapidly declining prices, and/or a change in the value of the contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities. Futures executed on regulated futures exchanges have minimal counterparty risk to a Fund because the exchange's clearinghouse assumes the position of the counterparty in each transaction. Thus, a Fund is exposed to risk only in connection with the clearinghouse and not in connection with the original counterparty to the transaction.

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the futures transactions undertaken by a Fund may cause the Fund to recognize gains or losses from marking contracts to market even though its positions have not been sold or terminated, may affect the character of the gains or losses recognized as long-term or short-term, and may affect the timing of some capital gains and losses realized by the Fund. Also, a Fund's losses on transactions involving futures contracts may be deferred rather than being taken into account currently in calculating such Fund's taxable income.

Bond forward contracts: During the six months ended April 30, 2022, Strategic Income used bond forward contracts to obtain economic exposure in the Fund to certain markets and securities. A bond forward is a contractual agreement between a Fund and another party to buy or sell an underlying asset at an agreed-upon future price and date. In a bond forward transaction, no cash premium is paid when the parties enter into the bond forward. If the transaction is collateralized, an exchange of margin collateral will take place according to an agreed-upon schedule. Otherwise, no asset of any kind changes hands until the bond forward matures (typically in 30 days) or is rolled over for another agreed-upon period. Generally, the value of the bond forward will change based on changes in the value of the underlying asset. Bond forwards are subject to market risk (the risk that the market value of the underlying bond may change), non-correlation risk (the risk that the market value of the bond forward might move independently of the market value of the underlying bond) and counterparty credit risk (the risk that a counterparty will be unable to meet its obligation under the contract). If there is no cash exchanged at the time a Fund enters into the bond forward, counterparty risk may be limited to the loss of any marked-to-market profit on the contract and any delays or limitations on the Fund's ability to sell or otherwise use the investments posted as collateral for the bond forward.

Forward foreign currency contracts: During the six months ended April 30, 2022, Emerging Markets Debt used forward FX contracts to manage or adjust views on foreign exchange rate movements and currency exposure, to apply foreign exchange leverage, and to gain exposure to markets where the portfolio managers believe these instruments provide better liquidity and value than bonds. During the six months ended April 30, 2022, Strategic Income used forward FX contracts to manage or adjust the risk profile for foreign currency exposures in the Fund to obtain or reduce economic exposure, to establish net short or long positions for markets or securities and to enhance total return.


224


A forward FX contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell a specific currency for another at a set price on a future date, and is individually negotiated and privately traded by currency traders and their customers in the interbank market. The market value of a forward FX contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward FX contracts are marked to market daily, and the change in value is recorded by a Fund as an unrealized gain or loss. At the consummation of a forward FX contract to purchase or sell currency, a Fund may either exchange the currencies specified at the maturity of the forward FX contract or enter into a closing transaction involving the purchase or sale of an offsetting forward FX contract. Closing transactions with respect to forward FX contracts are usually performed with the counterparty to the original forward FX contract. The gain or loss arising from the difference between the U.S. dollar cost of the original contract and the value of the foreign currency in U.S. dollars upon closing a contract is included in "Net realized gain/(loss) on settlement of forward foreign currency contracts" in the Statements of Operations. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in a Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, a Fund could be exposed to risks associated with fluctuations in foreign currency and the risk the counterparty will fail to fulfill its obligation.

Credit default swap contracts: During the six months ended April 30, 2022, Emerging Markets Debt used credit default swaps to manage or adjust credit risk of the Fund, to take advantage of the portfolio managers' views on credit risk, market pricing of credit events and in an effort to leverage risk exposures by selling protection. During the six months ended April 30, 2022, Strategic Income used credit default swaps for economic hedging purposes, to manage or adjust the risk profile and investment exposure of the Fund or individual positions, to obtain or reduce exposure to certain markets, to establish net short or long positions for markets or securities and to enhance total return. When a Fund is the buyer of a credit default swap contract, it is entitled to receive the notional amount of the swap from the counterparty if a credit event occurs. In return, the Fund pays the counterparty a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that no credit event has occurred. If no credit event occurs, the Fund would have spent the stream of payments and received no proceeds from the contract. When a Fund is the seller of a credit default swap contract, it receives the stream of payments, but is obligated to pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional amount of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of securities of the reference entity upon the occurrence of a credit event, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement. Credit events are contract specific but may include bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring, obligation acceleration and repudiation/moratorium. If a Fund is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, the maximum potential amount of future payments that the Fund could be required to make (or the risk of loss) would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement. This potential amount would be partially offset by any recovery value of the respective referenced obligation, or net amount received from the settlement of a buy protection credit default swap agreement entered into by the Fund for the same referenced obligation. As the seller, the Fund may add economic leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Fund is subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. The net periodic payments paid or received on the swap contract are accrued daily as a component of unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) and are recorded as realized gain upon receipt or realized loss upon payment. The Fund also records an increase or decrease to unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) in an amount equal to the daily valuation of swaps. For over-the-counter ("OTC") credit default swaps, cash settlement in and out of the swaps may occur at a reset date or any other date, at the discretion of the Fund and the counterparty, over the life of the agreement, and is generally determined based on limits and thresholds established as part of an agreement between the Fund and the counterparty. For financial reporting purposes, unamortized upfront payments/(receipts), if any, are netted with unrealized appreciation or (depreciation) and net interest received or paid on swap contracts to determine the fair value of swaps.

Interest rate/Inflation swap contracts: During the six months ended April 30, 2022, Emerging Markets Debt used interest rate swaps to manage or adjust interest rate risk of the Fund, to take advantage of the portfolio managers' views on interest rates and market pricing of future monetary policy, to obtain exposure on a maturity horizon where bonds are illiquid or are unavailable, and to obtain leveraged rate positions. During the six months ended


225


April 30, 2022, Strategic Income used interest rate swaps and inflation swaps for economic hedging purposes, to manage or adjust the risk profile and investment exposure of the Fund or individual positions, to obtain or reduce exposure to certain markets, to establish net short or long positions for markets or securities and to enhance total return. Under the terms of interest rate/inflation swaps, the Fund agrees to pay the swap counterparty a fixed-rate payment in exchange for the counterparty's paying the Fund a variable-rate payment, or the Fund agrees to pay the swap counterparty a variable-rate payment in exchange for the counterparty's paying the Fund a fixed-rate payment. The fixed-rate and variable-rate payment flows are paid by one party to the other on a periodic basis and netted against each other when applicable. The Fund segregates cash or liquid securities having a value at least equal to the Fund's net payment obligations under any interest rate/inflation swaps, marked to market daily. There is no guarantee that these interest rate/inflation swap transactions will be successful in reducing or limiting risk.

Risks may arise if the counterparty to an interest rate/inflation swap contract fails to comply with the terms of its contract. The loss incurred due to the failure of a counterparty is generally limited to the net interest payment to be received by the Fund and/or the termination value at the end of the contract. Additionally, risks may arise if there is no liquid market for these agreements or from movements in interest rates unanticipated by Management.

Periodic expected interim net interest payments or receipts on the swaps are recorded as an adjustment to unrealized gains/losses, along with the fair value of the future periodic payment or receivable streams on the swaps. The unrealized gains/losses associated with the periodic interim net interest payments or receipts are reclassified to realized gains/losses in conjunction with the actual net payment or receipt of such amounts. For OTC interest rate/inflation swaps, cash settlement in and out of the swaps may occur at a reset date or any other date, at the discretion of the Fund and the counterparty, over the life of the agreement, and is generally determined based on limits and thresholds established as part of an agreement between the Fund and the counterparty. The reclassifications do not impact the Fund's total net assets or its total net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations.

Centrally cleared swap contracts: Certain clearinghouses currently offer clearing for limited types of derivative transactions. In a cleared derivative transaction, a Fund typically enters into the transaction with a financial institution counterparty that is then cleared through a central clearinghouse. Upon acceptance of a swap by a central clearinghouse, the original swap is extinguished and replaced with a swap with the clearinghouse, thereby reducing or eliminating the Fund's exposure to the credit risk of the original counterparty. A Fund typically will be required to post specified levels of both initial and variation margin with the clearinghouse or at the instruction of the clearinghouse. The daily change in valuation is recorded as a receivable or payable for variation margin and settled in cash with the central clearing party. For financial reporting purposes, unamortized upfront payments, if any, are netted with unrealized appreciation or depreciation and net interest received or paid on swap contracts to determine the fair value of swaps.

Total return basket swap contracts: During the six months ended April 30, 2022, Strategic Income used total return basket swaps for economic hedging purposes, to manage or adjust the risk profile and investment exposure of the Fund or individual positions, to obtain or reduce exposure to certain markets, to establish net short or long positions for markets or securities and to enhance total return. A Fund may enter into a total return basket swap agreement to obtain exposure to a portfolio of long and short securities. Under the terms of the agreement, the swap is designed to function as a portfolio of direct investments in long and short equity or fixed income positions. The Fund has the ability to trade in and out of long and short positions within the swap and will receive all of the economic benefits and risks equivalent to direct investments in these positions such as: capital appreciation/(depreciation), corporate actions, and dividends and interest received and paid, all of which are reflected in the swap value. The swap value also includes interest charges and credits related to the notional values of the long and short positions and cash balances within the swap. These interest charges and credits are based on defined market rates plus or minus a specified spread and are referred to herein as "financing costs". Positions within the swap are reset periodically, and financing costs are reset according to the terms of the contract. During a reset, any unrealized gains (losses) on positions and accrued financing costs become available for cash settlement


226


between the Fund and the swap counterparty. For OTC total return basket swaps, cash settlement in and out of the swap may occur at a reset date or any other date, at the discretion of the Fund and the counterparty, over the life of the agreement, and is generally determined based on limits and thresholds established as part of an agreement between the Fund and the counterparty. A change in the market value of a total return basket swap contract is recognized as a change in unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) on swap contracts in the Statements of Operations. Cash settlements between a Fund and the counterparty are recognized as realized gains (losses) on closing of swap contracts in the Statements of Operations.

Total return swap contracts: During the six months ended April 30, 2022, Floating Rate Income and High Income each used total return swaps to enhance liquidity while maintaining exposure to the asset class. During the six months ended April 30, 2022, Short Duration used total return swaps for hedging purposes, liquidity management and to manage and adjust the risk profile of the Fund. During the six months ended April 30, 2022, Strategic Income used total return swaps for economic hedging purposes, to manage or adjust the risk profile and investment exposure of the Fund or individual positions, to obtain or reduce exposure to certain markets, to establish net short or long positions for markets or securities and to enhance total return. Total return swaps involve commitments to pay fixed or floating rate interest in exchange for a market-linked return based on a notional amount. To the extent the total return of the reference security or index underlying the total return swap exceeds or falls short of the offsetting interest rate obligation, a Fund will receive a payment or make a payment to the counterparty, respectively. Certain risks may arise when entering into total return swap transactions, including counterparty default, liquidity or unfavorable changes in the value of the underlying reference security or index. The value of the swap is adjusted daily and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized appreciation or (depreciation) in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Payments received or made at the end of each measurement period are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statements of Operations. For OTC total return swaps, cash settlement in and out of the swaps may occur at a reset date or any other date, at the discretion of the Fund and the counterparty, over the life of the agreement, and is generally determined based on limits and thresholds established as part of an agreement between the Fund and the counterparty.

Options: During the six months ended April 30, 2022, Strategic Income used written options for economic hedging purposes, to manage or adjust the risk profile and investment exposure of the Fund or individual positions, to obtain or reduce exposure to certain markets, to establish net short or long positions for markets or securities and to enhance total return. During the six months ended April 30, 2022, Strategic Income used purchased options for economic hedging purposes, to manage or adjust the risk profile and investment exposure of the Fund or individual positions, to obtain or reduce exposure to certain markets, to establish net short or long positions for markets or securities and to enhance total return.

Premiums paid by a Fund upon purchasing a call or put option are recorded in the asset section of the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities and are subsequently adjusted to the current market value. When an option is exercised, closed, or expired, a Fund realizes a gain or loss and the asset is eliminated. For purchased call options, a Fund's loss is limited to the amount of the option premium paid.

Premiums received by a Fund upon writing a call option or a put option are recorded in the liability section of the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities and are subsequently adjusted to the current market value. When an option is exercised, closed, or expired, a Fund realizes a gain or loss and the liability is eliminated.

When writing a covered call option, a Fund, in return for the premium, gives up the opportunity for profit from a price increase in the underlying security above the exercise price, but conversely retains the risk of loss should the price of the security decline. When writing a put option, a Fund, in return for the premium, takes the risk that it must purchase the underlying security at a price that may be higher than the current market price of the security. If a call or put option that a Fund has written expires unexercised, a Fund will realize a gain for the amount of the premium. All securities covering outstanding written options are held in escrow by the custodian bank.

While the Funds may receive redeemable preference shares, rights and warrants in connection with their investments in securities, these preference shares, rights and warrants are not considered "derivative instruments" under ASC 815.

Management has concluded that Municipal High Income, Municipal Impact and Municipal Intermediate Bond did not hold any derivative instruments during the six months ended April 30, 2022 that require additional disclosures pursuant to ASC 815.

The Funds are required to disclose both gross and net information for assets and liabilities related to OTC derivatives, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities lending and securities borrowing transactions that are eligible for offset or subject to an enforceable master netting or similar agreement. Emerging Markets Debt, Floating Rate Income, High Income, Short Duration and Strategic Income held one or more of these investments at April 30, 2022. The Funds' OTC derivative assets and liabilities at fair value by type and securities lending assets are reported gross in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The following tables present derivative and securities lending assets and liabilities by counterparty, net of amounts available for offset under a master netting or similar agreement and net of the related collateral received by a Fund for assets and pledged by a Fund for liabilities as of April 30, 2022.

(a)  Collateral received (or pledged) is limited to an amount not to exceed 100% of the net amount of assets (or liabilities) in the tables presented above, for each respective counterparty.

(b)  Net Amount represents amounts subject to loss as of April 30, 2022, in the event of a counterparty failure.

(c)  Net Amount represents amounts under-collateralized to each counterparty as of April 30, 2022.

12  Securities lending: Each Fund, using State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") as its lending agent, may loan securities to qualified brokers and dealers in exchange for negotiated lender's fees. These fees, if any, would be disclosed within the Statements of Operations under the caption "Income from securities loaned-net" and are net of expenses retained by State Street as compensation for its services as lending agent.

The initial cash collateral received by a Fund at the beginning of each transaction shall have a value equal to at least 102% of the prior day's market value of the loaned securities (105% in the case of international securities). Thereafter, the value of the cash collateral is monitored on a daily basis, and cash collateral is moved daily between a counterparty and a Fund until the close of the transaction. A Fund may only receive collateral in the form of cash (U.S. dollars). Cash collateral is generally invested in a money market fund registered under the 1940 Act that is managed by an affiliate of State Street. The risks associated with lending portfolio securities include, but are not


235


limited to, possible delays in receiving additional collateral or in the recovery of the loaned securities. Any increase or decrease in the fair value of the securities loaned and any interest earned or dividends paid or owed on those securities during the term of the loan would accrue to the Fund.

As of April 30, 2022, the Funds did not have any outstanding loans of securities.

13  Indemnifications: Like many other companies, the Trust's organizational documents provide that its officers ("Officers") and trustees ("Trustees") are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, both in some of its principal service contracts and in the normal course of its business, the Trust enters into contracts that provide indemnifications to other parties for certain types of losses or liabilities. The Trust's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this could involve future claims against the Trust.

14  Investment in other funds managed by Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC: Through April 30, 2022, Strategic Income invested in Neuberger Berman Global Monthly Income Fund Ltd. (the "Underlying Fund") via a secondary market transaction (See Note F).

For Strategic Income's investment in the Underlying Fund, NBIA waived a portion of its management fee equal to the management fee it received from the Underlying Fund on those assets (the "Arrangement"). For the six months ended April 30, 2022, management fees waived under this Arrangement are reflected in the Statements of Operations under the caption "Investment management fees waived." For the six months ended April 30, 2022, income earned from the Underlying Fund on Strategic Income's investments is reflected in the Statements of Operations under the caption "Dividend income-affiliated issuers". For the six months ended April 30, 2022, management fees waived under this Arrangement and distributions from income and capital gains received from Strategic Income's investments in the Underlying Fund were as follows:

15  Investment company securities and exchange-traded funds: The Funds may invest in shares of other registered investment companies, including ETFs, within the limitations prescribed by the 1940 Act, in reliance on rules adopted by the SEC, particularly Rule 12d1-4 under the 1940 Act, which became effective on January 19, 2022, or any other applicable exemptive relief. Prior to the effectiveness of Rule 12d1-4, a Fund was permitted to invest in both affiliated and unaffiliated investment companies, including ETFs, in excess of the limits in Section 12(d)(1)(A) of the 1940 Act, subject to the terms and conditions of exemptive orders. These exemptive orders along with Rule 12d1-2 were rescinded upon the effectiveness of Rule 12d1-4. Rule 12d1-4 contains elements from the SEC's prior exemptive orders permitting fund of funds arrangements, and includes (i) limits on control and voting; (ii) required evaluations and findings; (iii) required fund of funds investment agreements; and (iv) limits on complex structures. Some ETFs seek to track the performance of a particular market index. These indices include both broad-based market indices and more narrowly-based indices, including those relating to particular sectors, markets, regions or industries. However, some ETFs have an actively-managed investment objective. ETF shares are traded like traditional equity securities on a national securities exchange or NASDAQ. A Fund will indirectly bear its proportionate share of any management fees and other expenses paid by such other investment companies, which will decrease returns.

16  Unfunded loan commitments: The Funds may enter into certain credit agreements all or a portion of which may be unfunded. The Funds are obligated to fund these commitments at the borrower's discretion. As of April 30, 2022,


236


the value of unfunded loan commitments was $2,573,384, $220,434 and $787,599 for Floating Rate Income, High Income and Strategic Income, respectively, pursuant to the following loan agreements:

(a)  NBIA has contractually agreed to waive its Class E management fee for the below Fund.

Accordingly, for the six months ended April 30, 2022, the investment management fee pursuant to the Management Agreement was equivalent to an annual effective rate of each Fund's average daily net assets, as follows:

(a)  After management fee waiver (Note A).

Each Fund retains NBIA as its administrator under an Administration Agreement. The administration fee is assessed at the class level and each share class of a Fund, as applicable, pays NBIA an annual administration fee equal to the following: 0.27% for each of Investor Class, Class A, Class C and Class R3; 0.50% for Trust Class of Short Duration; 0.40% for Trust Class of Strategic Income; 0.15% for Institutional Class; and 0.05% for Class R6, each as a percentage of its average daily net assets. Class E shares do not pay an administration fee. Additionally, NBIA retains State Street as its sub-administrator under a Sub-Administration Agreement. NBIA pays State Street a fee for all services received under the Sub-Administration Agreement.

NBIA has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse certain expenses of the Investor Class, Trust Class, Institutional Class, Class A, Class C, Class R3 and Class R6 of each Fund that offers those classes so that the total annual operating expenses of those classes do not exceed the expense limitations as detailed in the following table. These undertakings exclude interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, extraordinary expenses, and dividend and interest expenses relating to short sales, if any (commitment fees relating to borrowings are treated as interest for purposes of this exclusion) ("annual operating expenses"); consequently, net expenses may exceed the contractual expense limitations.

At April 30, 2022, contingent liabilities to NBIA under the agreements were as follows:

(c)  Period from January 18, 2019 (Commencement of Operations) to October 31, 2019.

Each Fund has agreed that each of its respective classes will repay NBIA for fees and expenses waived or reimbursed for that class provided that repayment does not cause that class's annual operating expenses to exceed its contractual expense limitation in place at the time the fees and expenses were waived or reimbursed, or the expense limitation in place at the time the Fund repays NBIA, whichever is lower. Any such repayment must be made within three years after the year in which NBIA incurred the expense.

During the six months ended April 30, 2022, the following classes repaid NBIA under these agreements as follows:

Neuberger Berman Europe Limited ("NBEL"), as the sub-adviser to Emerging Markets Debt, is retained by NBIA to choose the Fund's investments and handle its day-to-day business for the portion of the Fund's assets allocated to it by NBIA, and receives a monthly fee paid by NBIA. As investment manager, NBIA is responsible for overseeing the investment activities of NBEL. Several individuals who are Officers and/or Trustees of the Trust are also employees of NBEL and/or NBIA.

Each Fund also has a distribution agreement with Neuberger Berman BD LLC (the "Distributor") with respect to each class of shares. The Distributor acts as agent in arranging for the sale of class shares without sales commission or other compensation, except as described below, and bears the advertising and promotion expenses.

However, the Distributor receives fees from Core Bond's Investor Class, Strategic Income's Trust Class, High Income's Class R3, and each Fund's Class A and Class C under their distribution plans (each a "Plan", collectively, the "Plans") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The Plans provide that, as compensation for administrative and other services provided to these classes, the Distributor's activities and expenses related to the sale and distribution of these classes, and ongoing services provided to investors in these classes, the Distributor receives from each of these respective classes a fee at the annual rate of 0.25% of Core Bond Investor Class', and each Fund's Class A's average daily net assets; 0.10% of Strategic Income Trust Class' average daily net assets; 0.50% of High Income Class R3's average daily net assets; and 1.00% of each Fund's Class C's average daily net assets. The Distributor receives this amount to provide distribution and shareholder servicing for these classes and pays a portion of it to institutions that provide such services. Those institutions may use the payments for, among


241


other purposes, compensating employees engaged in sales and/or shareholder servicing. The amount of fees paid by each class during any year may be more or less than the cost of distribution and other services provided to that class. FINRA rules limit the amount of annual distribution fees that may be paid by a mutual fund and impose a ceiling on the cumulative distribution fees paid. The Trust's Plans comply with those rules.

Class A shares of each Fund (except Short Duration) are generally sold with an initial sales charge of up to 4.25%. Class A shares of Short Duration are generally sold with an initial sales charge of up to 2.50%. Class A shares of each Fund are generally sold with no contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC"), except that a CDSC of 1.00% applies to certain redemptions made within 18 months following purchases of $1 million or more without an initial sales charge. Class C shares of each Fund are sold with no initial sales charge and a 1.00% CDSC if shares are sold within one year after purchase.

For the six months ended April 30, 2022, the Distributor, acting as underwriter and broker-dealer, received net initial sales charges from the purchase of Class A shares and CDSCs from the redemption of Class A and Class C shares as follows:

(a)  Period from January 11, 2022 (Commencement of Operations) to April 30, 2022

Note E—Line of Credit:

At April 30, 2022, each Fund was a participant in a syndicated committed, unsecured $700,000,000 line of credit (the "Credit Facility"), to be used only for temporary or emergency purposes. Series of other investment companies managed by NBIA also participate in this line of credit on substantially the same terms. Interest is charged on borrowings under this Credit Facility at the highest of (a) a federal funds effective rate plus 1.00% per annum, (b) a Eurodollar rate for a one-month period plus 1.00% per annum, and (c) an overnight bank funding rate plus 1.00% per annum; provided that should the Administrative Agent of the Credit Facility determine that the Eurodollar rate is unavailable, then the interest rate option described in (b) shall be replaced with a benchmark replacement determined to be applicable by such Administrative Agent. The Credit Facility has an annual commitment fee of 0.15% per annum of the available line of credit, which is paid quarterly. Each Fund that is a participant has agreed to pay its pro rata share of the annual commitment fee, based on the ratio of its individual net assets to the net assets of all participants at the time the fee is due, and interest charged on any borrowing made by such Fund and other costs incurred by such Fund. Because several mutual funds participate in the Credit Facility, there is no assurance that an individual fund will have access to all or any part of the $700,000,000 at any particular time. There were no loans outstanding under the Credit Facility at April 30, 2022.

During the six months ended April 30, 2022, the following Fund had borrowings under the Credit Facility:

Note G—Recent Accounting Pronouncement:

In January 2021, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2021-01 ("ASU 2021-01"), "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)". ASU 2021-01 is an update of ASU 2020-04, which is in response to concerns about structural risks of interbank offered rates, and particularly the risk of cessation of LIBOR, 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 optional guidance for a limited period of time 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, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The ASU 2021-01 update clarifies that certain optional expedients


246


and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. The amendments in this update are effective immediately through December 31, 2022, for all entities. Management is currently evaluating the implications, if any, of the additional requirements and its impact on the Funds' financial statements.

Note H—Change in Independent Auditors:

Effective on December 15, 2021, Tait, Weller & Baker LLP ("Tait") ceased to serve as the independent registered public accounting firm of Core Bond, Floating Rate Income, Municipal High Income and Municipal Impact (collectively, the "Change in Auditor Funds"). Tait did not resign and did not decline to stand for re-election. The decision to change independent registered public accounting firms was recommended by the Audit Committee of the Board and was approved by the Board.

Tait's reports on the Change in Auditor Funds' financial statements for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2021 and October 31, 2020 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle.

During the fiscal years ended October 31, 2021 and October 31, 2020 and during the subsequent interim period through December 15, 2021: (i) there were no disagreements with Tait on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Tait, would have caused Tait to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports on the Change in Auditor Funds' financial statements for such periods; and (ii) there were no "reportable events" of the kind described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

On December 15, 2021, the Audit Committee of the Board recommended, and the Board approved, the selection of Ernst & Young LLP ("EY") as the Change in Auditor Funds' independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022. During the Change in Auditor Funds' fiscal years ended October 31, 2021 and October 31, 2020, and the subsequent period through December 15, 2021, neither the Change in Auditor Funds, nor anyone on their behalf consulted with EY on items which: (i) concerned the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Change in Auditor Funds' financial statements; or (ii) concerned the subject of a disagreement (as described in paragraph (a)(1)(iv) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K) or reportable events (as described in paragraph (a)(1)(v) of said Item 304).

Note I—Other Matters:

Coronavirus: The outbreak of the novel coronavirus in many countries has, among other things, disrupted global travel and supply chains, and adversely impacted global commercial activity, the transportation industry and commodity prices in the energy sector. The impact of this virus has negatively affected and may continue to affect the economies of many nations, individual companies and the global securities and commodities markets, including liquidity and volatility. The development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to its ultimate impact, which may have a continued adverse effect on global economic and market conditions. Such conditions (which may be across industries, sectors or geographies) have impacted and may continue to impact certain issuers of the securities held by the Funds and in turn, may impact the financial performance of the Funds.

Russia's Invasion of Ukraine: Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and corresponding events in late February 2022, have had, and could continue to have, severe adverse effects on regional and global economic markets for securities and commodities. Following Russia's actions, various governments, including the United States, have issued broad-ranging economic sanctions against Russia. The current events have had, and could continue to have, an adverse effect on global markets performance and liquidity, thereby negatively affecting the value of a Fund's investments


247


beyond any direct exposure to Russian or Ukrainian issuers. The duration of ongoing hostilities and the vast array of sanctions and related events cannot be predicted. Those events present material uncertainty and risk with respect to markets globally and the performance of a Fund and its investments or operations could be negatively impacted.

Note J—Unaudited Financial Information:

The financial information included in this interim report is taken from the records of each Fund without audit by an independent registered public accounting firm. Annual reports contain audited financial statements.

Notes to Financial Highlights Income Funds (Unaudited)

#  Represents the annualized ratios of net expenses to average daily net assets if Management had not reimbursed certain expenses and/or waived a portion of the investment management fee and if High Income and Municipal Impact had not received refunds, plus interest, from State Street noted in (e) below for custodian out-of-pocket expenses previously paid during the year ended October 31, 2017.

@  Calculated based on the average number of shares outstanding during each fiscal period.

**  Annualized.

*  Not annualized.

^  The date investment operations commenced.

  Organization expense and/or proxy-related expense, which is a non-recurring expense, is included in these ratios on a non-annualized basis.

§  After repayment of expenses previously reimbursed and/or fees previously waived pursuant to terms of the contractual expense limitation agreements by Management, as applicable. Had the Fund not made such repayments, the annualized ratios of net expenses to average net assets would have been:

^^  Portfolio turnover is calculated at the Fund level. Percentage indicated was calculated for the six months ended April 30, 2022, for High Income, for the year ended October 31, 2019, for Core Bond and for the year ended October 31, 2018, for Municipal Impact.

a  Total return based on per share NAV reflects the effects of changes in NAV on the performance of each Fund during each fiscal period. Returns assume income dividends and other distributions, if any, were reinvested, but do not reflect the effect of sales charges. Results represent past performance and do not indicate future results. Current returns may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Investment returns and principal will fluctuate and shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than original cost. Total return would have been lower if Management had not reimbursed and/or waived certain expenses. Total return would have been higher if Management had not recouped previously reimbursed and/or waived expenses.

b  The class action proceeds listed in Note A of the Notes to Financial Statements, if any, had no impact on the Funds' total returns for the six months ended April 30, 2022. The class action proceeds received in 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018 and 2017 had no impact on the Funds' total returns for the years ended October 31, 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

c  Excluding TBA roll transactions. Had TBA roll transactions been included, the portfolio turnover rate would have been:
