FPA NEW INCOME, INC.
LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

Dear Shareholders:

FPA New Income, Inc. (the "Fund") had a total net return of 0.40% in the third quarter of 2018, 1.47% year-to-date, and 1.91% for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018.

As of Sept. 30, the portfolio had a yield-to-worst1 of 3.82% and an effective duration2 of 1.77 years. Treasury yields rose meaningfully during the third quarter, particularly in the front-end of the yield curve (0-3 year maturities) causing the yield curve to flatten further. Higher Treasury yields allowed us to add more duration at lower prices in the high-quality portion of the portfolio (investments rated A- or higher). With credit spreads compressed versus the prior quarter and prior year, the portfolio's credit-sensitive holdings (investments rated less than A-) decreased to 7.2%, compared to 8.2% on June 30, 2018 and 11.5% on Sept. 30, 2017, as attractively priced credit investments remain difficult to find. Because of our efforts to add more duration to the portfolio in this rising interest rate environment, cash and equivalents decreased to 3.5% of the Fund, down from 8.2% at the end of the second quarter.

The Fund has performed well in comparison to commonly used industry benchmarks. The Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond 1-3 year Index, with a 1.93 year duration, returned 0.34% this quarter and 0.42% year-to-date, while the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond index, with a 6.03-year duration, returned 0.02% this quarter and lost 1.60% year-to-date. The outperformance of the Fund versus the index was partially driven by our absolute value-oriented approach to duration, which includes eschewing speculative bets on interest rates and seeking to own more duration when we believe the upside versus downside is attractive.

Portfolio Attribution3

Third Quarter 2018

The largest contributors to performance during the quarter were collateralized loan obligations (CLO's). The majority of these bonds have floating-rate coupons. With interest rates rising, the coupon returns on these bonds offset a small decline in price. The second- and third-largest contributors to performance were asset-backed securities (ABS) backed by auto loans and ABS backed by equipment loans and leases, respectively. In both cases, the return on these bonds was predominantly due to coupon returns; the prices of the auto loan ABS were

1  Yield-to-worst is the lowest possible yield that can be received on a bond without the issuer defaulting. It does not represent the yield that an investor should expect to receive. As of September 30, 2018, the SEC yield was 3.11%. The SEC yield figure reflects the theoretical income that a bond portfolio would generate, including dividends and interest, during the period after deducting the Fund's expenses for the period (but excluding any fee waivers). The Fund's actual net earnings for a given period under generally accepted accounting principles may differ from this standardized yield. The SEC yield is expressed as an annual percentage based on the price of the Fund at the beginning of the month. The SEC yield reflects prospective data and thus assumes payments collected by the fund may fluctuate.

2  Duration is a measure of the sensitivity of the price (the value of principal) of a fixed-income investment to a change in interest rates.

3  Contributors and detractors are presented gross of investment management fees, transactions costs, and Fund operating expenses, which if included, would reduce the returns presented. This information is not a recommendation for a specific security or sector and these securities/sectors may not be in the Fund at the time you receive this report.

essentially unchanged and the prices of the equipment ABS were down slightly, as lower spreads mitigated most of the impact of rising Treasury rates.

There were no meaningful detractors from performance during the quarter.

Fiscal Year 2018 (10/1/17-9/30/18)

The largest contributors to performance for the fiscal year ended Sept. 30 were corporate bonds and bank debt, with much of that return coming from price appreciation and coupon on a metals and mining-related investment. The rest came mostly from coupons on other corporate bond and bank debt investments, which offset an overall small price decline on those investments. The second-largest contributor to performance for the fiscal year were CLO's, owing predominantly to coupon return. The third-largest contributor to performance were GNMA project loan interest only bonds whose return stemmed from a combination of coupon payments, prepayment penalties and higher prices as lower spreads offset rising interest rates.

The only detractors from performance were long Treasury bonds, where prices declined due to rising interest rates.

Not much has changed in the past three months in regard to the market and our investment approach. Since the second quarter, the market has continued in the same direction it has been heading for much of the year: interest rates are higher, the yield curve is flatter and credit is more expensive.

FPA NEW INCOME, INC.
LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

(Continued)

As a result, nothing has changed since the last quarter in how we execute our investment activity: We are adding duration in high-quality bonds and upgrading the credit quality of the portfolio.

On the duration front, as always, we try to buy bonds that we expect will produce a positive total return if yields rise by 100 bps over a 12-month period, and we look for the longest bonds that will meet that hurdle. Today, with rates meaningfully higher during the quarter, this approach allows us to buy high-quality bonds that have a duration of three to four years. The spread on high-quality non-agency securities (i.e., ABS, CMBS and non-agency RMBS rated A- or higher) continues to narrow, which decreases the yield we are giving up by owning agency mortgages that have better collateral and better liquidity. Moreover, increasingly, our ideal duration does not overlap with the high-quality duration available in ABS and other non-agency investments which oftentimes is either too short or too long for us. Under those circumstances, the agency mortgage market is generally the best way for us to buy the duration we seek. During the third quarter, we invested 13% of the portfolio in high-quality bonds that have an average duration of approximately 2.8 years, of which approximately half was invested in agency mortgage pools with an average duration of 3.4 years. Consequently, the Fund's mortgage pass-through exposure increased by 550 basis points (bps) since June 30, 2018.

The Fund's ABS exposure also increased due to new investments in prime auto loan ABS, which were partially offset by amortization and maturities of our existing prime auto and subprime auto loan ABS. The Fund's CMO holdings decreased as a result of amortization of existing bonds and the sale of an agency CMO backed by relocation mortgages that had become too expensive to own. These reductions were partially offset by


3



FPA NEW INCOME, INC.
LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

(Continued)

new investments in non-agency CMOs backed by re-performing mortgages. The Stripped Mortgage-Backed holdings, which primarily represents our holdings of GNMA project loan interest-only bonds, decreased due to the sale of one existing position and the amortization of others. As discussed in prior commentaries, we periodically sell our GNMA project loan interest-only bonds if prepayment activity degrades the expected future return profile of the bonds. The Fund's corporate investments decreased due to the maturity of a bank debt investment. Finally, we took advantage of cheaper prices caused by higher yields to slightly increase the Fund's position in Treasuries during the quarter.

In the credit market, we see no substantive changes with respect to the price of risk. If anything, spreads are lower meaning that investors, whether in high-grade bonds or high-yield, are being paid less to take on credit risk. In response, we continue to upgrade the portfolio's credit quality in two ways. First, in our high-quality investments, we have been investing relatively more capital in agency mortgages and less capital in non-agency securities (as described above). Notwithstanding our view that the ABS we buy include little risk of permanent capital impairment, they do not have the additional protection of the implicit government guarantee that agency mortgages carry. Importantly, we buy agency mortgages based on the quality of the loans, not because of the implicit guarantee (though that is certainly worth something). Second, we have decreased the portfolio's exposure to credit sensitive issuers (which we define as investments rated BBB+ or lower). With the high-yield index spread hovering near all-time lows (and near pre-financial crisis levels), we have struggled to find investments with an attractive risk-versus-return profile. As such, we have been allowing existing investments to mature while we continue to sift through the market and stockpile ideas for the future. The portfolio's credit exposure stands at 7.2% as of the end of the third quarter, down from 8.2% at the end of the second quarter and 11.5% a year ago.

Overall, in the third quarter we were very active capitalizing on a cheaper market for duration. That's in keeping with our investment strategy, which focuses on preserving capital in an expensive market and recycling capital into cheaper bonds when prices are more attractive. The activity resulted in the Fund's cash and equivalents decreasing significantly to 3.5% as of Sept. 30, down from 8.2% at the end of the second quarter.

Market Commentary

Over the past several years, investors have asked us why we have such a significant exposure to structured product investments, and to sub-prime automobile loan securitizations in particular. In our quarterly conference calls and during our biannual investor day presentations, we have discussed specific aspects of this portion of the portfolio. Here we provide some historical context on why we are comfortable investing in those assets.

Our broad knowledge of consumer credit started in 2002 with our investments in Conseco, Inc. At the time, the portfolio manager of the Fund, Bob Rodriguez, wrote that Conseco was his "worst investment failure." While in the end we had a small gain on the investment, the bigger gain was in the form of institutional knowledge that we acquired regarding consumer credit underwriting, repayment behavior and loan servicing. We leveraged this knowledge in 2005, when we sold Alt-A mortgage bonds that exhibited early default patterns we had seen before in Conseco's manufactured housing loan securitizations. Our Conseco experience continued to pay dividends five years later, when our research prompted us to write a March 2007 special commentary that detailed the then-looming mortgage crisis.

(Continued)

Over the past several years, this experience with subprime consumer credit has enabled us to invest in securitizations of non-performing residential mortgages, subprime auto loan ABS and re-performing mortgage loan securitizations (now 7% of the portfolio). In sum, our investment mistake of 2002 helped us identify one of the largest financial excesses in recorded history and has provided multiple investment opportunities for us since 2010.

In closing, the strict adherence to our investment discipline is resulting in a limited set of new investments in the portfolio. In our opinion, the economy is nearing the end of a very long upward cycle and there is a higher probability of it experiencing a slowdown over the next several years. In today's expensive market, this warrants higher-quality investments to protect our capital and position the Fund for the investment cycle that may follow.

Investments in mutual funds carry risks and investors may lose principal value. Capital markets are volatile and can decline significantly in response to adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market, or economic developments. The Fund may purchase foreign securities, which are subject to interest rate, currency exchange rate, economic and political risks; this may be enhanced when investing in emerging markets. The securities of smaller, less well-known companies can be more volatile than those of larger companies.

The return of principal in a bond fund is not guaranteed. Bond funds have the same issuer, interest rate, inflation and credit risks that are associated with underlying bonds owned by the Fund. Lower rated bonds, convertible securities and other types of debt obligations involve greater risks than higher rated bonds.

Interest rate risk is the risk that when interest rates go up, the value of fixed income securities, such as bonds, typically go down and investors may lose principal value. Credit risk is the risk of loss of principal due to the issuer's failure to repay a loan. Generally, the lower the quality rating of a security, the greater the risk that the issuer will fail to pay interest fully and return principal in a timely manner. If an issuer defaults the security may lose some or all of its value.

Mortgage securities and collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) are subject to prepayment risk and the risk of default on the underlying mortgages or other assets; such derivatives may increase volatility. Convertible securities are generally not investment grade and are subject to greater credit risk than higher-rated investments. High yield securities can be volatile and subject to much higher instances of default.

Value style investing presents the risk that the holdings or securities may never reach their full market value because the market fails to recognize what the portfolio management team considers the true business

FPA NEW INCOME, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2018

NOTE 1 — Significant Accounting Policies

FPA New Income, Inc. (the "Fund") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as a diversified, open-end, management investment company. The Fund's primary investment objective is to seek current income and long-term total return. Capital preservation is also a consideration. The Fund qualifies as an investment company pursuant to Financial Accounting Standard Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) No. 946, Financial Services — Investment Companies. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

A.  Security Valuation

The Fund's investments are reported at fair value as defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, ("U.S. GAAP"). The Fund generally determines its net asset value as of approximately 4:00 p.m. New York time each day the New York Stock Exchange is open. Further discussion of valuation methods, inputs and classifications can be found under Disclosure of Fair Value Measurements.

B.  Securities Transactions and Related Investment Income

Securities transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased or sold. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income and expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Market discounts and premiums on fixed income securities are amortized over the expected life of the securities. Realized gains or losses are based on the specific identification method.

C.  Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

D.  Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2017, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2017-08, Receivables — Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20). The amendments in this update shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. Specifically, the amendments require the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount; the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. For public entities this update will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The Adviser is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance on the Fund's financial statements.

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) — Disclosure Framework — Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The amendments eliminate certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements for all entities, requires public entities to disclose certain new information and modifies some disclosure requirements. The new guidance is effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity is permitted to early adopt either the entire standard or only the provisions that eliminate or modify requirements. The Adviser is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance on the Fund's financial statements.

NOTE 2 — Risk Considerations

Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, those described below.

Market Risk: Because the values of the Fund's investments will fluctuate with market conditions, so will the value of your investment in the Fund. You could lose money on your investment in the Fund or the Fund could underperform other investments.

Interest Rate Risk: The values of, and the income generated by, most debt securities held by the Fund may be affected by changing interest rates and by changes in the effective maturities and credit rating of these securities. For example, the value of debt securities in the Fund's portfolio generally will decline when interest rates rise and increase when interest rates fall. In addition, falling interest rates may cause an issuer to redeem, call or refinance a security before its stated maturity, which may result in the Fund having to reinvest the proceeds in lower yielding securities.

Mortgage-Backed and Other Asset-Backed Securities Risk: The values of some mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities may expose the Fund to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. When interest rates rise, the value of mortgage-related securities generally will decline; however, when interest rates are declining, the value of mortgage related-securities with prepayment features may not increase as much as other fixed income securities. The rate of prepayments on underlying mortgages will affect the price and volatility of a mortgage-related security, and may shorten or extend the effective maturity of the security beyond what was anticipated at the time of purchase. If an unanticipated rate of prepayment on underlying mortgages increases the effective maturity of a mortgage-related security, the volatility of the security can be expected to increase. The value of these securities may also fluctuate in response to the market's perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.

Stripped Mortgage-Backed Interest Only ("I/O") and Principal Only ("P/O") Securities: Stripped mortgage backed securities are usually structured with two classes that receive different proportions of the interest and principal distributions on a pool of mortgage assets. In certain cases, one class will receive all of the interest payments on the underlying mortgages (the I/O class), while the other class will receive all of the principal payments (the P/O class). The Fund currently has investments in I/O and P/O securities. The yield to maturity on IOs is sensitive to the rate of principal repayments (including prepayments) on the related underlying mortgage assets, and principal payments may have a material effect on yield-to-maturity. If the underlying mortgage assets experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, a Fund may not fully recoup its initial investment in I/Os.

Credit Risk: Debt securities are subject to credit risk, meaning that the issuer of the debt security may default or fail to make timely payments of principal or interest. The values of any of the Fund's investments may also decline in response to events affecting the issuer or its credit rating. The lower rated debt securities in which the Fund may invest are considered speculative and are generally subject to greater volatility and risk of loss than investment grade securities, particularly in deteriorating economic conditions. The Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in securities of issuers that hold mortgage-and asset-backed securities and direct investments in securities backed by commercial and residential mortgage loans and other financial assets. The value and related income of these securities is sensitive to changes in economic conditions, including delinquencies and/or defaults. Continuing shifts in the market's perception of credit quality on securities backed by commercial and residential mortgage loans and other financial assets may result in increased volatility of market price and periods of illiquidity that can negatively impact the valuation of certain securities held by the Fund.


34



FPA NEW INCOME, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Continued)

Repurchase Agreements: Repurchase agreements permit the Fund to maintain liquidity and earn income over periods of time as short as overnight. Repurchase agreements held by the Fund are fully collateralized by U.S. Government securities, or securities issued by U.S. Government agencies, or securities that are within the three highest credit categories assigned by established rating agencies (Aaa, Aa, or A by Moody's or AAA, AA or A by Standard & Poor's) or, if not rated by Moody's or Standard & Poor's, are of equivalent investment quality as determined by the Adviser. Such collateral is in the possession of the Fund's custodian. The collateral is evaluated daily to ensure its market value equals or exceeds the current market value of the repurchase agreements including accrued interest. In the event of default on the obligation to repurchase, the Fund has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation.

The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements, under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement ("MRA"). The MRA permits the Fund, under certain circumstances including an event of default (such as bankruptcy or insolvency), to offset payables and/or receivables under the MRA with collateral held and/or posted to the counterparty and create one single net payment due to or from the Fund. However, bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against such a right of offset in the event of a MRA counterparty's bankruptcy or insolvency. Pursuant to the terms of the MRA, the Fund receives securities as collateral with a market value in excess of the repurchase price to be received by the Fund upon the maturity of the repurchase transaction. Upon a bankruptcy or insolvency of the MRA counterparty, the Fund recognizes a liability with respect to such excess collateral to reflect the Fund's obligation under bankruptcy law to return the excess to the counterparty. Repurchase agreements outstanding at the end of the period are listed in the Fund's Portfolio of Investments.

NOTE 3 — Purchases and Sales of Investment Securities

Cost of purchases of investment securities (excluding short-term investments) aggregated $3,212,082,930 for the year ended September 30, 2018. The proceeds and cost of securities sold resulting in net realized losses of $2,863,146 aggregated $1,445,148,222 and $1,448,011,368, respectively, for the year ended September 30, 2018. Realized gains or losses are based on the specific identification method.

NOTE 4 — Advisory Fees and Other Affiliated Transactions

Pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement (the "Agreement"), advisory fees were paid by the Fund to First Pacific Advisors, LP (the "Adviser"). Under the terms of this Agreement, the Fund pays the Adviser a monthly fee calculated at the annual rate of 0.5% of the Fund's average daily net assets. In addition, the adviser contractually agreed to reimburse expenses in excess of 0.49% of the average net assets of the Fund (excluding brokerage fees and commissions, interest, taxes, shareholder service fees, fees and expenses of other funds in which the Fund invests, and extraordinary expenses) through January 31, 2019. The Agreement obligates the Adviser to reduce its fee to the extent necessary to reimburse the Fund for any annual expenses (exclusive of interest, taxes, the cost of any supplemental statistical and research information, and extraordinary expenses such as litigation) in excess of 1.5% of the first $15 million and 1% of the remaining average net assets of the Fund for the year.

For the year ended September 30, 2018, the Fund paid aggregate fees and expenses of $252,959 to all Directors who are not affiliated persons of the Adviser. Certain officers of the Fund are also officers of the Adviser.

NOTE 5 — Federal Income Tax

No provision for federal income tax is required because the Fund has elected to be taxed as a "regulated investment company" under the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") and intends to maintain this qualification


35



FPA NEW INCOME, INC.

(Continued)

and to distribute each year to its shareholders, in accordance with the minimum distribution requirements of the Code, its taxable net investment income and taxable net realized gains on investments.

Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax reporting basis, which may differ from financial reporting. For federal income tax purposes, the Fund had the following components of distributable earnings at September 30, 2018:

Undistributed Ordinary Income

 

$

41,133,948

   

The tax status of distributions paid during the fiscal years ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 were as follows:

2017

 

Dividends from ordinary income

 

$

158,423,878

   

$

131,897,900

   

The Fund utilizes the provisions of federal income tax laws that provide for the carryforward of capital losses for prior years, offsetting such losses against any future realized capital gains. Under the Regulated Investment Company Act of 2010 (the "Act"), net capital losses recognized for fiscal years beginning after December 22, 2010 may be carried forward indefinitely, and their character is retained as short-term and/or long-term losses. Previously, net capital losses were carried forward for eight years and treated as short-term losses.

As of September 30, 2018, the post enactment accumulated losses were $389,139,401, and the pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards were $10,690,443. The ability to carry these pre-enactment losses forward expires in 2019.

The cost of investment securities held at September 30, 2018, was $5,916,530,482 for federal income tax purposes. Gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation for all investments (excluding short-term investments) at September 30, 2018, for federal income tax purposes was $7,319,513 and $121,815,587, respectively resulting in net unrealized depreciation of $114,496,074. As of and during the year ended September 30, 2018, the Fund did not have any liability for unrecognized tax benefits. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the year, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties. The Fund is not subject to examination by U.S. federal tax authorities for years ended on or before September 30, 2015 or by state tax authorities for years ended on or before September 30, 2014.

During the year ended September 30, 2018, the Fund reclassified $3,341,275 from Net Investment Loss to Paid in Capital, and $18,480,859 from Accumulated Realized Gain to Paid in Capital, to align financial reporting with tax reporting. The permanent book/tax differences arose principally from differing book/tax treatment of premium amortization, market discount accretion of securities and paydowns from mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities.

NOTE 6 — Redemption Fees

Effective June 26, 2017, the Board of Directors of the Fund approved the removal of the 2% redemption fee. Prior to that date, a redemption fee of 2% applied to redemptions within 90 days of purchase. For the year ended September 30, 2018, there were no redemption fees collected.

NOTE 7 — Disclosure of Fair Value Measurements

The Fund uses the following methods and inputs to establish the fair value of its assets and liabilities. Use of particular methods and inputs may vary over time based on availability and relevance as market and economic conditions evolve.


36



FPA NEW INCOME, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Continued)

Equity securities are generally valued each day at the official closing price of, or the last reported sale price on, the exchange or market on which such securities principally are traded, as of the close of business on that day. If there have been no sales that day, equity securities are generally valued at the last available bid price. Securities that are unlisted and fixed-income and convertible securities listed on a national securities exchange for which the over-the-counter ("OTC") market more accurately reflects the securities' value in the judgment of the Fund's officers, are valued at the most recent bid price. However, most fixed income securities are generally valued at prices obtained from pricing vendors and brokers. Vendors value such securities based on one or more of the following inputs: transactions, bids, offers quotations from dealers and trading systems, spreads and other relationships observed in the markets among comparable securities, benchmarks, underlying equity of the issuer, and proprietary pricing models such as cash flows, financial or collateral performance and other reference data (includes prepayments, defaults, collateral, credit enhancements, and interest rate volatility). Short-term corporate notes with maturities of 60 days or less at the time of purchase are valued at amortized cost.

Securities for which representative market quotations are not readily available or are considered unreliable by the Adviser are valued as determined in good faith under procedures adopted by the authority of the Fund's Board of Directors. Various inputs may be reviewed in order to make a good faith determination of a security's value. These inputs include, but are not limited to, the type and cost of the security; contractual or legal restrictions on resale of the security; relevant financial or business developments of the issuer; actively traded similar or related securities; conversion or exchange rights on the security; related corporate actions; significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security; and changes in overall market conditions. Fair valuations and valuations of investments that are not actively trading involve judgment and may differ materially from valuations of investments that would have been used had greater market activity occurred.

The Fund classifies its assets based on three valuation methodologies. Level 1 values are based on quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets. Level 2 values are based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices for similar assets and quoted prices in inactive markets or other market observable inputs as noted above including spreads, cash flows, financial performance, prepayments, defaults, collateral, credit enhancements, and interest rate volatility. Level 3 values are based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Fund's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the assets. These assumptions consider inputs such as proprietary pricing models, cash flows, prepayments, defaults, and collateral. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following table presents the valuation levels of the Fund's investments as of September 30, 2018:

Level 3 Valuation Process: Investments classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are valued by the Adviser in good faith under procedures adopted by authority of the Fund's Board of Directors. The Adviser employs various methods to determine fair valuations including regular review of key inputs and assumptions, and review of related market activity, if any. However, there are generally no observable trade activities in these securities. The Adviser reports to the Board of Directors at their regularly scheduled quarterly meetings, or more often if warranted. The report includes a summary of the results of the process, the key inputs and assumptions noted, and any changes to the inputs and assumptions used. When appropriate, the Adviser will recommend changes to the procedures and process employed. The value determined for an investment using the fair value procedures may differ significantly from the value realized upon the sale of such investment.

Transfers of investments between different levels of the fair value hierarchy are recorded at market value as of the end of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Level 1 and 2.

There were transfers of $142,995,252 out of Level 3 into Level 2 during the year ended September 30, 2018. The transfers are a result of change in pricing vendor commencing coverage and pricing of the securities during the period and a change in observable inputs.

The following table summarizes the quantitative inputs and assumptions used for items categorized as items categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as of September 30, 2018:

(a)  The Third Party Broker Quote technique involves obtaining an independent third-party broker quote for the security

(b)  The Pricing Model technique for Level 3 securities involves preparing a proprietary broker price opinion (BPO) model using valuation information provided by the loan servicer based on local market resources and sales trends published by the National Association of Realtors, and a broker, and then applying an appropriate discount to that valuation. The discount reflects market conditions such as lack of liquidity of the investment, the costs associated with foreclosure and liquidation, the historical performance of the loan pool and the characteristics of the remaining loans including whether or not the loans are performing.

(c)  The Pricing Model technique for Level 3 securities involves calculating the difference between the fair value of the funded portion of the securitiy and the price at which the Fund is committed to fund the unfunded committment.

NOTE 8 — Distribution to Shareholders

On October 1, 2018, the Fund declared a dividend from net investment income of $0.073 per share payable October 2, 2018 to shareholders of record on September 28, 2018. For financial statement purposes, this dividend was recorded on the ex-dividend date, October 1, 2018.

NOTE 9 — Collateral Requirements

FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, requires disclosures to make financial statements that are prepared under U.S. GAAP more comparable to those prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards. Under this guidance the Fund discloses both gross and net information about instruments and transactions eligible for offset such as instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. In addition, the Fund discloses collateral received and posted in connection with master netting agreements or similar arrangements.

The following table presents the Fund's repurchase agreements by counterparty net of amounts available for offset under an ISDA Master agreement or similar agreements and net of the related collateral received or pledged by the Fund as of September 30, 2018, are as follows:

FPA NEW INCOME, INC.
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED
PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

TO THE SHAREHOLDERS AND
BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF FPA NEW INCOME, INC.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of FPA New Income, Inc. (the "Fund"), including the portfolio of investments, as of September 30, 2018, and the related statements of operations, changes in net assets and the financial highlights for the year then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). The statement of changes in net assets for the year ended September 30, 2017 and the financial highlights for the years ended September 30, 2014, September 30, 2015, September 30, 2016 and September 30, 2017 were audited by another independent registered public accounting firm whose report, dated November 20, 2017, expressed an unqualified opinion on the statement of changes in net assets and those financial highlights. In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund at September 30, 2018, the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets, and its financial highlights for the year then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of September 30, 2018, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the auditor of the Fund since 2018.

SHAREHOLDER EXPENSE EXAMPLE

September 30, 2018 (Unaudited)

Fund Expenses

Mutual fund shareholders generally incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; shareholder service fees; and other Fund expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the year and held for the entire year.

Actual Expenses

The information in the table under the heading "Actual Performance" provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this column, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 column in the row entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The information in the table under the heading "Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)" provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to

compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading "Hypothetical Performance (5% 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 transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher. Even though the Fund does not charge transaction fees, if you purchase shares through a broker, the broker may charge you a fee. You should evaluate other mutual funds' transaction fees and any applicable broker fees to assess the total cost of ownership for comparison purposes.

FPA NEW INCOME, INC.
APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

(Unaudited)

Approval of the Advisory Agreement. At a meeting of the Board of Directors held on August 13, 2018, the Directors approved the continuation of the advisory agreement between the Fund and the Adviser (the "Advisory Agreement") for an additional one-year period through September 30, 2019, on the recommendation of the Independent Directors, who met in executive session on August 13, 2018 prior to the Board meeting to review and discuss the proposed continuation of the Advisory Agreement. The Board had also met on July 9, 2018, with the Independent Directors meeting separately prior to the Meeting in executive session with the management of the Adviser and then separately with independent counsel to evaluate the renewal of the Advisory Agreement. Prior to their July 9 meeting, the Independent Directors, through their independent counsel, had requested and received extensive materials prepared in connection with the review of the Advisory Agreements. The materials provided a broad range of information regarding the Fund, including a description of, among other matters, the terms of the Advisory Agreement; the services provided by the Adviser; the experience of the relevant investment personnel; the Fund's performance in absolute terms and as compared to the performance of peers and appropriate benchmark(s); the fees and expenses of the Fund in absolute terms and as compared to peers; and the profitability of the Adviser from serving as adviser to the Fund. Following their review at the July 9 meeting, the Independent Directors requested (through their independent counsel) and received supplemental information and responses to a number of questions relating to the materials provided by the Adviser.

In addition, the Board met regularly throughout the year and received information on a variety of topics that were relevant to its annual consideration of the renewal of the Advisory Agreement including, among other matters, Fund investment performance, compliance, risk management, liquidity, valuation, trade execution and other matters relating to Fund operations. The Independent Directors also had met with management of the Adviser (including key investment personnel) at their quarterly meetings as well as with management at other times between the quarterly meetings throughout the year. The materials specifically provided in connection with the annual review of the Advisory Agreement supplement the information received throughout the year.

At their regular Board meetings and executive sessions, the Independent Directors were also assisted by independent legal counsel. In addition to the materials provided by the Adviser, the Independent Directors received a legal memorandum from independent counsel that outlined, among other matters: the duties of the Independent Directors and relevant requirements under the 1940 Act; the general principles under state law relevant to considering the approval of advisory contracts; an adviser's fiduciary duty with respect to advisory agreements and compensation; the standards used by courts in determining whether investment advisers and investment company boards of trustees have fulfilled their duties; and factors to be considered by the Independent Directors when voting on advisory agreements. During executive session, independent legal counsel reviewed with the Independent Directors these duties, standards and factors summarized in the legal memorandum described above. The following paragraphs summarize the material information and factors considered by the Board and the Independent Directors, as well as the Directors' conclusions relative to such factors.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board and the Independent Directors considered information provided by the Adviser in response to their requests, as well as information provided throughout the year regarding: the Adviser and its staffing in connection with the Fund, including the Fund's portfolio managers and the senior analysts supporting them; the scope of services supervised and provided by the Adviser; and the absence of any significant service problems reported to the Board. The Board and the Independent Directors noted the experience, length of service and the outstanding reputation of the Fund's portfolio managers: Tom Atteberry, who has been with the Adviser since 1997 and has served as portfolio manager since 2004 and Abhijeet V. Patwardhan, who joined the Adviser in 2010 and has served as portfolio manager since 2015. After discussion,

FPA NEW INCOME, INC.
APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT
(Continued)

(Unaudited)

the Board and the Independent Directors concluded that the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Adviser have benefited and should continue to benefit the Fund and its shareholders.

Investment Performance. The Board and the Independent Directors reviewed the overall investment performance of the Fund. The Directors also received information from an independent consultant, Broadridge, regarding the Fund's performance relative to a peer group of alternative credit focus funds selected by Broadridge (the "Peer Group"). The Board and the Independent Directors considered the Adviser's representation that the Fund's investment style, as evidenced by the short-term duration of most of its portfolio securities, as well as the Fund's flexibility to invest in a variety of areas, complicated Peer Group comparisons in that the Fund is managed in a more conservative style than the typical fixed income fund and the funds in the Peer Group. The Board and the Independent Directors noted the Fund's absolute investment results and its long-term investment performance when compared to the Peer Group. The Board and the Independent Directors noted the Fund outperformed its Peer Group median for the one-, three- and five-year periods ending March 31, 2018, and underperformed its Peer Group for the ten-year period ending March 31, 2018. The Board and the Independent Directors also noted that the Fund outperformed the Fund's benchmark, Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Index, for the one- and three-year periods ending March 31, 2018 and underperformed for the five- and ten-year periods ending March 31, 2018. They also noted that Broadridge has continued to give the Fund a "Bronze" Analyst Rating. After discussion, the Board and the Independent Directors determined that the Fund's investment results were reasonable in light of the Fund's objectives and concluded that the Adviser's continued management of the Fund should benefit the Fund and its shareholders.

Advisory Fees and Fund Expenses; Comparison with Peer Group and Institutional Fees. The Board and the Independent Directors considered information provided by the Adviser regarding the Fund's advisory fees and total expense levels. The Board and the Independent Directors reviewed comparative information regarding fees and expenses for the Peer Group. The Board and the Independent Directors noted that the Fund's advisory fee was slightly above the average of the Peer Group and its overall expense ratio was equal to that of the Peer Group. In addition, the Directors noted that the fee rate charged to the Fund is higher than institutional accounts managed in a similar style by the portfolio managers but considered the Adviser's discussion of the differences between the services provided by the Adviser to the Fund and those provided by the Adviser to the institutional accounts. The Board and the Independent Directors concluded that the continued payment of advisory fees and expenses by the Fund to the Adviser was fair and reasonable and should continue to benefit the Fund and its shareholders.

Adviser Profitability and Costs. The Board and the Independent Directors considered information provided by the Adviser regarding the Adviser's costs in providing services to the Fund, the profitability of the Adviser and the benefits to the Adviser from its relationship to the Fund. They reviewed and considered the Adviser's representations regarding its assumptions and methods of allocating certain costs, such as personnel costs, which constitute the Adviser's largest operating cost, over-head and trading costs with respect to the provision of investment advisory services. The Independent Directors discussed with the Adviser the general process through which individuals' compensation is determined and then reviewed by the management committee of the Adviser, as well as the Adviser's methods for determining that its compensation levels are set at appropriate levels to attract and retain the personnel necessary to provide high quality professional investment advice. In evaluating the Adviser's profitability, they excluded certain distribution and marketing-related expenses. The Board and the Independent Directors recognized that the Adviser is entitled under the law to earn a reasonable level of profits for the services that it provides to the Fund. The Board and the Independent Directors concluded that the Adviser's


44



FPA NEW INCOME, INC.
APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT
(Continued)

(Unaudited)

level of profitability from its relationship with the Fund did not indicate that the Adviser's compensation was unreasonable or excessive.

Economies of Scale and Sharing of Economies of Scale. The Board and the Independent Directors considered whether there have been economies of scale with respect to the management of the Fund, whether the Fund has appropriately benefited from any economies of scale, and whether the fee rate is reasonable in relation to the Fund's asset levels and any economies of scale that may exist. The Board and the Independent Directors considered the Adviser's representation that its internal costs of providing investment management services to the Fund have significantly increased in recent years as a result of a number of factors, including the Adviser's substantial investment in additional professional resources and staffing. The Board and the Independent Directors considered both quantitative and qualitative information regarding the Adviser's representation that it has also made significant investments in: (1) the two portfolio managers, five analysts, traders and other investment personnel who assist with the management of the Fund; (2) new compliance, operations, and administrative personnel; (3) information technology, portfolio accounting and trading systems; and (4) office space, each of which enhances the quality of services provided to the Fund. The Board and the Independent Directors also considered the Adviser's willingness to close funds to new investors when it believed that a fund may have limited capacity to grow or that it otherwise would benefit fund shareholders.

The Board and the Independent Directors recognized that the advisory fee rate schedule for the Fund does not have breakpoints. They considered that many mutual funds have breakpoints in the advisory fee structure as a means by which to share in the benefits of potential economies of scale as a fund's assets grow. They also considered that not all funds have breakpoints in their fee structures and that breakpoints are not the exclusive means of sharing potential economies of scale. The Board and the Independent Directors considered the Adviser's statement that it believes that breakpoints currently remain inappropriate for the Fund given the ongoing investments the Adviser is making in its business for the benefit of the Fund, uncertainties regarding the direction of the economy, rising inflation, increasing costs for personnel and systems, and growth or contraction in the Fund's assets, all of which could negatively impact the profitability of the Adviser. The Board and the Independent Directors also noted that the Adviser has contractually agreed to reimburse the Fund for Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses in excess of 0.49% of the average daily net assets of the Fund (excluding brokerage fees and commissions, interest, taxes, shareholder service fees, fees and expenses of other funds in which the Fund invests, and extraordinary expenses) through January 31, 2019. The Board and the Independent Directors concluded that the Fund is benefitting from the ongoing investments made by the Adviser in its team of personnel serving the Fund and in the Adviser's service infrastructure, and that in light of these investments, the addition of breakpoints in the Fund's advisory fee structure was not warranted at current asset levels.

Ancillary Benefits. The Board and the Independent Directors considered other actual and potential benefits to the Adviser from managing the Fund, including the acquisition and use of research services with commissions generated by the Fund, in concluding that the contractual advisory and other fees are fair and reasonable for the Fund. They noted that the Adviser does not have any affiliates that benefit from the Adviser's relationship to the Fund.

Conclusions. The Board and the Independent Directors determined that the Fund continues to benefit from the services of the Adviser's highly experienced portfolio management team, which has produced reasonable long-term returns. In addition, the Board and the Independent Directors agreed that the Fund continues to receive high quality services from the Adviser. The Board and the Independent Directors concluded that the current advisory fee rate is reasonable and fair to the Fund and its shareholders in light of the nature and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and the Adviser's profitability and costs. The Board and the Independent

Directors also noted their intention to continue monitoring the factors relevant to the Adviser's compensation, such as changes in the Fund's asset levels, changes in portfolio management personnel and the cost and quality of the services provided by the Adviser to the Fund. On the basis of the foregoing, and without assigning particular weight to any single factor, none of which was dispositive, the Board and the Independent Directors concluded that it would be in the best interests of the Fund to continue to be advised and managed by the Adviser and determined to approve the continuation of the current Advisory Agreement for another one-year period through September 30, 2019.

The nonpublic personal information that may be collected from investors may include the investor's name, address, tax identification number, birth date, investment selection, beneficiary information, and possibly the investor's personal bank account information and/or email address if the investor has provided that information, as well as the investor's transaction and account history with the Fund or other investment companies advised by First Pacific Advisors, LP.

Respecting Your Privacy

The Fund does not disclose any non-public personal information provided by investors or gathered by the Fund to third parties, except as required or permitted by law or as necessary for such third parties to perform their agreements with respect to the Fund. Non-affiliated companies may from time to time be used to provide certain services, such as maintaining investor accounts, preparing and mailing prospectuses, reports, account statements and other information, and gathering shareholder proxies. In many instances, the investors will be clients of a third party, but the Fund may also provide an investor's personal and account information to the investor's respective brokerage or financial advisory firm and/or financial advisor or consultant.

Sharing Information with Third Parties

The Fund reserves the right to report or disclose personal or account information to third parties in circumstances where the Fund believes in good faith that disclosure is required or permitted under law, to cooperate with regulators or law enforcement authorities, to protect its rights or property, or upon reasonable request by the Fund in which an investor has invested. In addition, the Fund may disclose information about an investor or an investor's accounts to a third party at the investor's request or with the consent of the investor.

Procedures to Safeguard Private Information

The Fund is committed to its obligation to safeguard investor non-public personal information. In addition to this policy, the Fund has implemented procedures that are designed to limit access to an investor's non-public personal information to internal personnel who require the information to complete tasks, such as processing transactions, maintaining client accounts or otherwise providing services the investor requested. Physical, electronic and procedural safeguards are in place to guard an investor's non-public personal information.
