Important Information About the Funds
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well-diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities and other instruments held by a Fund are likely to decrease in value. A wide variety of factors can cause interest rates or yields of U.S. Treasury securities (or yields of other types of bonds) to rise (e.g., central bank monetary policies, inflation rates, general economic conditions, etc.). In addition, changes in interest rates can be sudden and unpredictable, and there is no guarantee that Fund management will anticipate such movement accurately. A Fund may lose money as a result of movements in interest rates.
As of the date of this report, interest rates in the United States and many parts of the world, including certain European countries, remain high. In efforts to combat inflation, the U.S. Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) raised interest rates multiple times in 2022 and 2023. In the second half of 2023 and the beginning of 2024, however, the Fed paused the rate hikes, keeping interest rates steady. It is uncertain whether rates will remain steady, increase or decrease in the future. As such, the Funds may face a heightened level of risk associated with rising interest rates and/or bond yields. This could be driven by a variety of factors, including but not limited to central bank monetary policies, changing inflation or real growth rates, general economic conditions, increasing bond issuances or reduced market demand for low yielding investments. Further, while bond markets have steadily grown over the past three decades, dealer inventories of corporate bonds are near historic lows in relation to market size. As a result, there has been a significant reduction in the ability of dealers to “make markets.”
Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. All of the factors mentioned above, individually or collectively, could lead to increased volatility and/or lower liquidity in the fixed income markets, or negatively impact a Fund’s performance or cause a Fund to incur losses.
Investing in the municipal bond market involves the risks of investing in debt securities generally and certain other risks. The amount of public information available about the municipal bonds in which a Fund may invest is generally less than that for corporate equities or bonds, and the investment performance of a Fund’s investment in municipal bonds may therefore be more dependent on the analytical abilities of Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) than its investments in taxable bonds. The secondary market for municipal bonds also tends to be less well-developed or liquid than many other securities markets, which may adversely affect a Fund’s ability to sell its bonds at attractive prices.
The ability of municipal issuers to make timely payments of interest and principal may be diminished during general economic downturns, by litigation, legislation or political events, or by the bankruptcy of the issuer. Issuers of municipal securities also might seek protection under the bankruptcy laws. In the event of bankruptcy of such an issuer, the Funds could experience delays in collecting principal and interest and a Fund may not, in all circumstances, be able to collect all principal and interest to which it is entitled.
A Fund that has substantial exposures to California municipal bonds may be affected significantly by economic, regulatory or political developments affecting the ability of California issuers to pay interest or repay principal. Certain issuers of California municipal bonds have experienced serious
| 2 | PIMCO MUNICIPAL INTERVAL FUNDS |
financial difficulties in the past and reoccurrence of these difficulties may impair the ability of certain California issuers to pay principal or interest on their obligations. Provisions of the California Constitution and State statutes that limit the taxing and spending authority of California governmental entities may impair the ability of California issuers to pay principal and/or interest on their obligations. While California’s economy is broad, it does have major concentrations in advanced technology, aerospace and defense-related manufacturing, trade, entertainment, real estate and financial services, and may be sensitive to economic problems affecting those industries. Future California political and economic developments, constitutional amendments, legislative measures, executive orders, administrative regulations, litigation and voter initiatives could have an adverse effect on the debt obligations of California issuers.
A Fund that has substantial exposures to New York municipal bonds may be affected significantly by economic, regulatory or political developments affecting the ability of New York issuers to pay interest or repay principal. While New York’s economy is broad, it does have concentrations in the financial services industry, and may be sensitive to economic problems affecting that industry. Certain issuers of New York municipal bonds have experienced serious financial difficulties in the past and reoccurrence of these difficulties may impair the ability of certain New York issuers to pay principal or interest on their obligations. The financial health of New York City affects that of the State, and when New York City experiences financial difficulty, it may have an adverse effect on New York municipal bonds held by a Fund. The growth rate of New York has at times been somewhat slower than the nation overall. The economic and financial condition of New York also may be affected by various financial, social, economic and political factors.
A Fund that has substantial exposures to municipal obligations issued by Puerto Rico or its political subdivisions, agencies, instrumentalities, or public corporations may be affected significantly by economic, market, political, and social conditions in Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico currently is experiencing significant fiscal and economic challenges, including substantial debt service obligations, high levels of unemployment, underfunded public retirement systems, and persistent government budget deficits. These challenges may negatively affect the value of a Fund’s investments in Puerto Rico municipal securities. Legislation, including legislation that would allow Puerto Rico to restructure its municipal debt obligations, thus increasing the risk that Puerto Rico may never pay off municipal indebtedness, or may pay only a small fraction of the amount owed, could also impact the value of the Fund’s investments in Puerto Rico municipal securities.
Classifications of the Funds’ portfolio holdings in this report are made according to financial reporting standards. The classification of a particular portfolio holding as shown in the Allocation Breakdown and Schedule of Investments or Consolidated Schedule of Investments, as applicable, and other sections of this report may differ from the classification used for the Funds’ compliance calculations, including those used in the Funds’ prospectus, investment objectives, regulatory, and other investment limitations and policies, which may be based on different asset class, sector or geographical classifications. Each Fund is separately monitored for compliance with respect to investment parameters and regulatory requirements.
The geographical classification of foreign (non-U.S.) securities in this report, if any, are classified by the country of incorporation of a holding. In certain instances, a security’s country of incorporation may be different from its country of economic exposure.

Important Information About the Funds (Cont.)
In February 2022, Russia launched an invasion of Ukraine. As a result, Russia and other countries, persons and entities that provided material aid to Russia’s aggression against Ukraine have been the subject of economic sanctions and import and export controls imposed by countries throughout the world, including the United States. Such measures have had and may continue to have an adverse effect on the Russian, Belarusian and other securities and economies, which may, in turn, negatively impact a Fund. The extent, duration and impact of Russia’s military action in Ukraine, related sanctions and retaliatory actions are difficult to ascertain, but could be significant and have severe adverse effects on the region, including significant adverse effects on the regional, European and global economies and the markets for certain securities and commodities, such as oil and natural gas, as well as other sectors. Further, a Fund may have investments in securities and instruments that are economically tied to the region and may have been negatively impacted by the sanctions and counter-sanctions by Russia, including declines in value and reductions in liquidity. The sanctions may cause a Fund to sell portfolio holdings at a disadvantageous time or price or to continue to hold investments that a Fund may no longer seek to hold. PIMCO will continue to actively manage these positions in the best interests of a Fund and its shareholders.
The Funds may invest in certain instruments that rely in some fashion upon the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). LIBOR was traditionally an average interest rate, determined by the ICE Benchmark Administration, that banks charge one another for the use of short-term money. The United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, has announced plans to ultimately phase out the use of LIBOR. Although the transition process away from LIBOR for many instruments has been completed, some LIBOR use is continuing and there are potential effects related to the transition away from LIBOR or continued use of LIBOR on a Fund, or on certain instruments in which a Fund invests, which can be difficult to ascertain, and may vary depending on factors that include, but are not limited to: (i) existing fallback or termination provisions in individual contracts and (ii) whether, how, and when industry participants adopt new reference rates for affected instruments. The transition of investments from LIBOR to a replacement rate as a result of amendment, application of existing fallbacks, statutory requirements or otherwise may also result in a reduction in the value of certain instruments held by a Fund or a reduction in the effectiveness of related Fund transactions such as hedges. In addition, an instrument’s transition to a replacement rate could result in variations in the reported yields of a Fund that holds such instrument. Any such effects of the transition away from LIBOR, as well as other unforeseen effects, could result in losses to a Fund.
U.S. and global markets have experienced increased volatility, including as a result of the failures of certain U.S. and non-U.S. banks in 2023, which could be harmful to the Funds and issuers in which they invest. For example, if a bank at which a Fund or issuer has an account fails, any cash or other assets in bank or custody accounts, which may be substantial in size, could be temporarily inaccessible or permanently lost by the Fund or issuer. If a bank that provides a subscription line credit facility, asset-based facility, other credit facility and/or other services to an issuer or to a fund fails, the issuer or fund could be unable to draw funds under its credit facilities or obtain replacement credit facilities or other services from other lending institutions with similar terms.
Issuers in which a Fund may invest can be affected by volatility in the banking sector. Even if banks used by issuers in which the Funds invest remain solvent, volatility in the banking sector could contribute to, cause or intensify an economic recession, increase the costs of capital and banking services or result in the issuers being unable to obtain or refinance indebtedness at all or on as favorable terms as could otherwise have been obtained. Potential impacts to funds and issuers
| 4 | PIMCO MUNICIPAL INTERVAL FUNDS |
resulting from changes in the banking sector, market conditions and potential legislative or regulatory responses are uncertain. Such conditions and responses, as well as a changing interest rate environment, can contribute to decreased market liquidity and erode the value of certain holdings, including those of U.S. and non-U.S. banks. Continued market volatility and uncertainty and/or a downturn in market and economic and financial conditions, as a result of developments in the banking sector or otherwise (including as a result of delayed access to cash or credit facilities), could have an adverse impact on the Funds and issuers in which they invest.
On each Fund Summary page in this Shareholder Report, the Average Annual Total Return table and Cumulative Returns chart measure performance assuming that any dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested. Total return is calculated by determining the percentage change in NAV in the specific period. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on (i) Fund distributions or (ii) the sale of Fund shares. Total return for a period of more than one year represents the average annual total return. Performance shown is net of fees and expenses. Historical performance for a Fund or share class thereof may have been positively impacted by fee waivers or expense limitations in place during some or all of the periods shown, if applicable. Future performance (including total return or yield) and distributions may be negatively impacted by the expiration or reduction of any such fee waivers or expense limitations.
The dividend rate that a Fund pays on its common shares may vary as portfolio and market conditions change, and will depend on a number of factors, including without limit the amount of the Fund’s undistributed net investment income and net short- and long-term capital gains, as well as the costs of any leverage obtained by a Fund. As portfolio and market conditions change, the rate of distributions on the common shares and a Fund’s dividend policy could change. There can be no assurance that a change in market conditions or other factors will not result in a change in a Fund’s distribution rate or that the rate will be sustainable in the future.

An investment in a Fund is not a bank deposit and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in a Fund.
The Trustees are responsible generally for overseeing the management of the Funds. The Trustees authorize the Funds to enter into service agreements with PIMCO and other service providers in order to provide, and in some cases authorize service providers to procure through other parties, necessary or desirable services on behalf of the Funds. Shareholders are not parties to or third-party beneficiaries of such service agreements. Neither a Fund’s prospectus or Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”), any press release or shareholder report, any contracts filed as exhibits to the Funds’ registration statement, nor any other communications, disclosure documents or regulatory filings (including this report) from or on behalf of the Funds creates a contract between or among any shareholders of a Fund, on the one hand, and the Funds, a service provider to a Fund, and/or the Trustees or officers of the Funds, on the other hand.

Important Information About the Funds (Cont.)
The Trustees (or the Funds and its officers, service providers or other delegates acting under authority of the Trustees) may amend the most recent prospectus or use a new prospectus or SAI with respect to the Funds, adopt and disclose new or amended policies and other changes in press releases and shareholder reports and/or amend, file and/or issue any other communications, disclosure documents or regulatory filings, and may amend or enter into any contracts to which a Fund is a party, and interpret the investment objective(s), policies, restrictions and contractual provisions applicable to a Fund, without shareholder input or approval, except in circumstances in which shareholder approval is specifically required by law (such as changes to fundamental investment policies) or where a shareholder approval requirement was specifically disclosed in the Funds’ then-current prospectus, SAI or shareholder report and is otherwise still in effect.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Funds as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Funds.
A description of the policies and procedures that PIMCO uses to vote proxies relating to portfolio securities of each Fund, and information about how each Fund voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Funds at (844) 312-2113, on the Funds’ website at www.pimco.com, and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at www.sec.gov.
The Funds file their complete schedules of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year as an exhibit to their reports on Form N-PORT. The Funds’ Form N-PORT reports are available to the public on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and on PIMCO’s website at www.pimco.com, and upon request by calling PIMCO at (844) 312-2113.
SEC rules allow the Funds to fulfill their obligation to deliver shareholder reports to investors by providing access to such reports online free of charge and by mailing a notice that the report is electronically available. Investors may elect to receive all future reports in paper free of charge by contacting their financial intermediary or, if invested directly with a Fund, investors can inform the Fund by calling (844) 312-2113. Any election to receive reports in paper will apply to all funds held with the fund complex if invested directly with a Fund or to all funds held in the investor’s account if invested through a financial intermediary.
In October 2022, the SEC adopted changes to the mutual fund and exchange-traded fund (“ETF”) shareholder report and registration statement disclosure requirements and the registered fund advertising rules, which impact the disclosures provided to shareholders. The rule amendments addressing fee and expense information in advertisements that might be materially misleading, which impact the Funds, were effective January 24, 2023.
In September 2023, the SEC adopted amendments to a current rule governing fund naming conventions. In general, the current rule requires funds with certain types of names to adopt a policy to invest at least 80% of their assets in the type of investment suggested by the name. The amendments expand the scope of the current rule in a number of ways that are expected to result in an increase in the types of fund names that would require the fund to adopt an 80% investment policy under the rule. Additionally, the amendments address deviations from a fund’s 80% investment policy and the use and valuation of derivatives instruments for purposes of the rule. The
| 6 | PIMCO MUNICIPAL INTERVAL FUNDS |
amendments were effective as of December 11, 2023, but the SEC is providing a 24-month compliance period following the effective date for fund groups with net assets of $1 billion or more (and a 30-month compliance period for fund groups with net assets of less than $1 billion).

The index is not intended to be indicative of the Fund’s investment strategies, portfolio components or past or future performance.
For periods prior to the inception date of the Class A-1 shares, performance information shown is based on the performance of the Fund’s Institutional Class shares. The prior Institutional Class performance has been adjusted to reflect the distribution and/or service fees and other expenses paid by the Class A-1 shares.
The Fund’s total annual operating expense ratio, as stated in the Fund’s currently-effective prospectus (as of the date of this report), were 3.30% for Institutional Class shares and 3.80% for Class A-1 shares. As of June 30, 2024, the Fund’s Total Effective Leverage(1) was 20.34%. See Financial Highlights for actual expense ratios as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Total effective leverage consists of preferred shares, reverse repurchase agreements and other borrowings, credit default swap notional and floating rate notes issued in tender option bond transactions, as applicable (collectively “Total Effective Leverage”). The Fund may engage in other transactions not included in Total Effective Leverage disclosed above that may give rise to a form of leverage, including certain derivative transactions. For the purpose of calculating Total Effective Leverage outstanding as a percentage of total managed assets, total managed assets refer to total assets (including assets attributable to Total Effective Leverage that may be outstanding) minus accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing Total Effective Leverage). |

PIMCO California Flexible Municipal Income Fund (Cont.)
Investment Objective and Strategy Overview
PIMCO California Flexible Municipal Income Fund’s investment objective is to seek high current income exempt from federal and California income tax by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in a portfolio of municipal bonds and other municipal securities, the interest from which, in the opinion of bond counsel for the issuer at the time of issuance (or on the basis of other authority believed by PIMCO to be reliable), is exempt from federal income tax and California income tax (i.e., excluded from gross income for income tax purposes but not necessarily exempt from the alternative minimum tax or from the income taxes of any other state or of a local government). Capital appreciation is a secondary objective. Fund strategies may change from time to time. Please refer to the Fund’s current prospectus for more information regarding the Fund’s strategy.
Fund Insights at NAV
The following affected performance (on a gross basis) during the reporting period:
| » | Security selection within taxable municipals contributed to performance, as select taxable municipals held within the Fund posted positive returns. |
| » | Exposure to the housing sector contributed to performance, as the sector posted positive returns. |
| » | Security selection within the special tax sector contributed to performance, as select securities held within the Fund posted positive returns. |
| » | The costs associated with one or more forms of leverage detracted from performance. The costs of leverage generally will reduce returns to the extent they exceed the rate of return on the additional investments purchased with such leverage. |
| » | There were no other material detractors for this Fund. |

The index is not intended to be indicative of the Fund’s investment strategies, portfolio components or past or future performance.
For periods prior to the inception date of the Class A-1, Class A-2 and Class A-3 shares performance information shown is based on the performance of the Fund’s Institutional Class shares. The prior Institutional Class performance has been adjusted to reflect the distribution and/or service fees and other expenses paid by the Class A-1, Class A-2 and Class A-3 shares.
The Fund’s total annual operating expense ratio, as stated in the Fund’s currently-effective prospectus (as of the date of this report), which include the Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses, were 2.56% for Institutional Class, 3.06% for Class A-1 shares, 3.06% for Class A-2 shares and 3.31% for Class A-3 shares. As of June 30, 2024, the Fund’s Total Effective Leverage(1) was 20.96%. See Financial Highlights for actual expense ratios as of the end of the period covered by this report.
| (1) | Represents total effective leverage outstanding, as a percentage of total managed assets. Total effective leverage consists of preferred shares, reverse repurchase agreements and other borrowings, credit default swap notional and floating rate notes issued in tender option bond transactions, as applicable (collectively “Total Effective Leverage”). The Fund may engage in other transactions not included in Total Effective Leverage disclosed above that may give rise to a form of leverage, including certain derivative transactions. For the purpose of calculating Total Effective Leverage outstanding as a percentage of total managed assets, total managed assets refer to total assets (including assets attributable to Total Effective Leverage that may be outstanding) minus accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing Total Effective Leverage). |

PIMCO Flexible Municipal Income Fund (Cont.)
Investment Objective and Strategy Overview
PIMCO Flexible Municipal Income Fund seeks to provide high current income exempt from federal income tax. Capital appreciation is a secondary objective. The Fund attempts to achieve these objectives by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in a portfolio of municipal bonds and other municipal securities, the interest from which, in the opinion of bond counsel for the issuer at the time of issuance (or on the basis of other authority believed by PIMCO to be reliable), is exempt from federal income tax. Fund strategies may change from time to time. Please refer to the Fund’s current prospectus for more information regarding the Fund’s strategy.

| 2 | “Involuntary Liquidating Preference” means the amount to which a holder of RVMTP would be entitled upon the involuntary liquidation of the Fund in preference to the Common Shareholders, expressed as a dollar amount per Preferred Share. |
| 3 | The RVMTP have no readily ascertainable market value. The liquidation value of the RVMTP represents its liquidation preference, which approximates fair value of the shares less any unamortized debt issuance costs. See Note 13, Preferred Shares, in the Notes to Financial Statements for more information. |

1. ORGANIZATION
PIMCO California Flexible Municipal Income Fund and PIMCO Flexible Municipal Income Fund (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”) are each organized as closed-end management investment companies registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (the “Act”). PIMCO Flexible Municipal Income Fund and PIMCO California Flexible Municipal Income Fund were each organized as Massachusetts business trusts on the dates shown in the table below. PIMCO Flexible Municipal Income Fund commenced operations on March 15, 2019, and PIMCO California Flexible Municipal Income Fund commenced operations on June 27, 2022. Each Fund is a closed-end management investment company that continuously offers its common shares of beneficial interest (“Common Shares”) and is operated as an “interval fund.”
PIMCO Flexible Municipal Income Fund currently offers four classes of Common Shares: Institutional Class, Class A-1, Class A-2 and Class A-3. Institutional Class, Class A-1 and Class A-3 Common Shares are sold at their offering price, which is net asset value (“NAV”) per share. Class A-2 Shares are sold at a public offering price equal to their NAV plus an initial sales charge that varies depending on the size of the purchase unless such purchase of Class A-2 Shares is eligible for a waiver of the initial sales charge. Institutional Class Shares are offered for investment to investors such as pension and profit sharing plans, employee benefit trusts, endowments, foundations, corporations and individuals that can meet the minimum investment amount. Class A-1, Class A-2 and Class A-3 Shares are primarily offered and sold to retail investors by broker-dealers which are members of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) and which have agreements with the Distributor (as defined below), but may be available through other financial firms, including banks and trust companies and to specified benefit plans and other retirement accounts.
PIMCO California Flexible Municipal Income Fund has five classes of Common Shares: Institutional Class, Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3 and Class A-4. PIMCO California Flexible Municipal Income Fund currently offers Institutional Class and Class A-1 Common Shares. PIMCO California Flexible Municipal Income Fund is not offering Class A-2, Class A-3, or Class A-4 Common Shares for sale at this time. Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO” or the “Manager”) serves as each Fund’s investment manager.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by each Fund in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Each Fund is treated as an investment
| SEMIANNUAL REPORT | JUNE 30, 2024 | 55 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
company under the reporting requirements of U.S. GAAP. The functional and reporting currency for the Funds is the U.S. dollar. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(a) Securities Transactions and Investment Income Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date for financial reporting purposes. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled beyond a standard settlement period for the security after the trade date. Realized gains (losses) from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as a Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis from settlement date, with the exception of securities with a forward starting effective date, where interest income is recorded on the accrual basis from effective date. For convertible securities, premiums attributable to the conversion feature are not amortized. Estimated tax liabilities on certain foreign securities are recorded on an accrual basis and are reflected as components of interest income or net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments on the Statements of Operations, as appropriate. Tax liabilities realized as a result of such security sales are reflected as a component of net realized gain (loss) on investments on the Statements of Operations. Paydown gains (losses) on mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities, if any, are recorded as components of interest income on the Statements of Operations. Income or short-term capital gain distributions received from registered investment companies, if any, are recorded as dividend income. Long-term capital gain distributions received from registered investment companies, if any, are recorded as realized gains.
Debt obligations may be placed on non-accrual status and related interest income may be reduced by ceasing current accruals and writing off interest receivable when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful based on consistently applied procedures. A debt obligation is removed from non-accrual status when the issuer resumes interest payments or when collectability of interest is probable. A debt obligation may be granted, in certain situations, a contractual or non-contractual forbearance for interest payments that are expected to be paid after agreed upon pay dates.
(b) Foreign Currency Translation The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based on the current exchange rates each business day. Purchases and sales of securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies, if any, are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date. The Funds do not separately report the effects of changes in foreign exchange rates from changes in market prices on securities held. Such changes are included in net realized gain (loss) and net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) from investments on the Statements of Operations. The Funds may invest in foreign currency-denominated securities and may engage in foreign currency transactions either on a spot (cash) basis at the rate prevailing in the currency exchange market at the time or through a forward foreign currency contract. Realized foreign exchange gains (losses) arising from sales of spot foreign currencies, currency gains (losses) realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions
| 56 | PIMCO MUNICIPAL INTERVAL FUNDS |
(Unaudited)
June 30, 2024
and the difference between the recorded amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid are included in net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions on the Statements of Operations. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains (losses) arising from changes in foreign exchange rates on foreign denominated assets and liabilities other than investments in securities held at the end of the reporting period are included in net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency assets and liabilities on the Statements of Operations.
(c) Multi-Class Operations Each class offered by each Fund has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses are allocated daily to each class on the basis of the relative net assets. Realized and unrealized capital gains (losses) are allocated daily based on the relative net assets of each class of the respective Fund. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include initial sales load, supervisory and administrative and distribution and servicing fees. Under certain circumstances, the per share NAV of a class of the respective Fund’s shares may be different from the per share NAV of another class of shares as a result of the different daily expense accruals applicable to each class of shares.
(d) Distributions — Common Shares The following table shows the anticipated frequency of distributions from net investment income to common shareholders.
| Distribution Frequency | ||||||||||||
| Fund Name | Declared | Distributed | ||||||||||
| PIMCO California Flexible Municipal Income Fund | Daily | Monthly | ||||||||||
| PIMCO Flexible Municipal Income Fund | Daily | Monthly | ||||||||||
Each Fund also intends to distribute to shareholders their pro rata share of any available net capital gain and taxable ordinary income, if any. Net short-term capital gains may be paid more frequently. A Fund may revise its distribution policy or postpone the payment of distributions at any time.
As of the end of the fiscal year, none of the Funds were in default on long-term debt or had any accumulated dividend in arrears.
Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from U.S. GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and U.S. GAAP may cause timing differences between income and capital gain recognition. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. As a result, income distributions and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income (loss) and realized gains (losses) reported on each Fund’s annual financial statements presented under U.S. GAAP.
Separately, if a Fund determines or estimates, as applicable, that a portion of a distribution may be comprised of amounts from sources other than net investment income in accordance with its policies, accounting records (if applicable) and accounting practices, the Fund will notify shareholders of the estimated composition of such distribution through a Section 19 Notice. For these purposes, a Fund determines or estimates, as applicable, the source or sources from which a distribution is paid, to the
| SEMIANNUAL REPORT | JUNE 30, 2024 | 57 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
close of the period as of which it is paid, in reference to its internal accounting records and related accounting practices. If, based on such accounting records and practices, it is determined or estimated, as applicable, that a particular distribution does not include capital gains or paid-in surplus or other capital sources, a Section 19 Notice generally would not be issued. It is important to note that differences exist between a Fund’s daily internal accounting records and practices, a Fund’s financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and recordkeeping practices under income tax regulations. For instance, a Fund’s internal accounting records and practices may take into account, among other factors, tax-related characteristics of certain sources of distributions that differ from treatment under U.S. GAAP. Examples of such differences may include, but are not limited to, for certain Funds, the treatment of periodic payments under interest rate swap contracts. Accordingly, among other consequences, it is possible that a Fund may not issue a Section 19 Notice in situations where a Fund’s financial statements prepared later and in accordance with U.S. GAAP and/or the final tax character of those distributions might later report that the sources of those distributions included capital gains and/or a return of capital. Please visit www.pimco.com for the most recent Section 19 Notice, if applicable, for additional information regarding the estimated composition of distributions. Final determination of a distribution’s tax character will be provided to shareholders when such information is available.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital at a Fund’s fiscal year end, if any, are reflected on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been recorded to paid in capital on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between distributable earnings (accumulated loss) and paid in capital on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities to more appropriately conform U.S. GAAP to tax characterizations of distributions.
(e) New Accounting Pronouncements and Regulatory Updates In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”), ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), which provides optional guidance to ease the potential accounting burden associated with transitioning away from the London Interbank Offered Rate and other reference rates that are expected to be discontinued. ASU 2020-04 is effective for certain reference rate-related contract modifications that occurred or will occur during the period March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2024. In January 2021 and December 2022, FASB issued ASU 2021-01 and ASU 2022-06, which include additional amendments to Topic 848. Management is continuously evaluating the potential effect a discontinuation of LIBOR could have on the Funds’ investments and has determined that it is unlikely the ASU’s adoption will have a material impact on the Funds’ financial statements.
In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), which affects all entities that have investments in equity securities measured at fair value that are subject to a contractual sale restriction. The amendments in ASU 2022-03 clarify that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring the fair value. The amendments also require additional disclosures for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions that are measured at fair value in accordance with Topic 820. The effective date for the amendments in ASU 2022-03 is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Management has implemented changes in connection with the amendments and has determined that there was no material impact to the Funds’ financial statements.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) made a final ruling on February 15, 2023 to adopt proposed amendments to the Settlement Cycle Rule (Rule 15c6-1) and other related rules under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, to shorten the standard settlement cycle for most broker-dealer transactions from two business days after the trade date (T+2) to one business day after the trade date (T+1). The effective date was May 5, 2023, and compliance with the amendments was required as of May 28, 2024. Management has implemented changes in connection with the rule and has determined that there was no material impact to the Funds’ financial statements.
In September 2023, the SEC adopted amendments to Rule 35d-1 under the Act, the rule governing fund naming conventions (the “Names Rule”). In general, the Names Rule requires funds with certain types of names to adopt a policy to invest at least 80% of their assets in the type of investment suggested by the name. The amendments expand the scope of the current rule to include any term used in a fund name that suggests the fund makes investments that have, or whose issuers have, particular characteristics. Additionally, the amendments modify the circumstances under which a fund may deviate from its 80% investment policy and address the calculation methodology of derivatives instruments for purposes of the rule. The amendments became effective December 11, 2023, and fund groups with $1 billion or more in net assets will have 24 months to comply with the amendments (fund groups with net assets of less than $1 billion have 30 months to comply). At this time, management is evaluating the implications of these changes on the financial statements.
3. INVESTMENT VALUATION AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
(a) Investment Valuation Policies The NAV of a Fund’s shares, or each of its share classes, as applicable, is determined by dividing the total value of portfolio investments and other assets attributable to the Fund or class, less any liabilities, as applicable, by the total number of shares outstanding.
On each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open, the Funds’ shares are ordinarily valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern time) (“NYSE Close”). Information that becomes known to the Funds or their agents after the time as of which NAV has been calculated on a particular day will not generally be used to retroactively adjust the price of a security or the NAV determined earlier that day. If regular trading on the NYSE closes earlier than scheduled, each Fund may calculate its NAV as of the earlier closing time or calculate its NAV as of the NYSE Close for that day. Each Fund generally does not calculate its NAV on days on which the NYSE is not open for business. If the NYSE is closed on a day it would normally be open for business, each Fund may calculate its NAV as of the NYSE Close for such day or such other time that a Fund may determine.
For purposes of calculating NAV, portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value. A market quotation is readily available only when that quotation is a quoted price (unadjusted) in active markets for identical investments that a Fund can access at the measurement date, provided that a quotation will not be readily available if it is not reliable. Market value is generally determined on the basis of official closing prices or the last reported sales prices. The Funds will normally use pricing data for domestic equity securities received
| SEMIANNUAL REPORT | JUNE 30, 2024 | 59 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
shortly after the NYSE Close and do not normally take into account trading, clearances or settlements that take place after the NYSE Close. A foreign (non-U.S.) equity security traded on a foreign exchange or on more than one exchange is typically valued using pricing information from the exchange considered by PIMCO to be the primary exchange. If market value pricing is used, a foreign (non-U.S.) equity security will be valued as of the close of trading on the foreign exchange or the NYSE Close if the NYSE Close occurs before the end of trading on the foreign exchange.
Investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the Act. As a general principle, the fair value of a security or other asset is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5, the Board has designated PIMCO as the valuation designee (“Valuation Designee”) for each Fund to perform the fair value determination relating to all Fund investments. PIMCO may carry out its designated responsibilities as Valuation Designee through various teams and committees. The Valuation Designee’s policies and procedures govern the Valuation Designee’s selection and application of methodologies for determining and calculating the fair value of Fund portfolio investments. The Valuation Designee may value Fund portfolio securities for which market quotations are not readily available and other Fund assets utilizing inputs from pricing services, quotation reporting systems, valuation agents and other third-party sources (together, “Pricing Sources”).
Domestic and foreign (non-U.S.) fixed income securities, non-exchange traded derivatives and equity options are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or Pricing Sources using data reflecting the earlier closing of the principal markets for those securities. Prices obtained from Pricing Sources may be based on, among other things, information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Common stocks, ETFs, exchange-traded notes and financial derivative instruments, such as futures contracts, rights and warrants, or options on futures that are traded on a national securities exchange, are stated at the last reported sale or settlement price on the day of valuation. Exchange traded options, except equity options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange. Swap agreements are valued on the basis of bid quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or market-based prices supplied by Pricing Sources. With respect to any portion of a Fund’s assets that are invested in one or more open-end management investment companies (other than ETFs), a Fund’s NAV will be calculated based on the NAVs of such investments.
If a foreign (non-U.S.) equity security’s value has materially changed after the close of the security’s primary exchange or principal market but before the NYSE Close, the security may be valued at fair value. Foreign (non-U.S.) equity securities that do not trade when the NYSE is open are also valued at fair value. With respect to foreign (non-U.S.) equity securities, a Fund may determine the fair value of investments based on information provided by Pricing Sources, which may recommend fair value or adjustments with reference to other securities, indexes or assets. In considering whether fair valuation is required and in determining fair values, the Valuation Designee may, among other things, consider significant events (which may be considered to include changes in the value of U.S. securities or securities indexes) that occur after the close of the relevant market and before the NYSE Close. A Fund may utilize modeling tools provided by third-party vendors to determine fair values of
| 60 | PIMCO MUNICIPAL INTERVAL FUNDS |
(Unaudited)
June 30, 2024
foreign (non-U.S.) securities. For these purposes, unless otherwise determined by the Valuation Designee, any movement in the applicable reference index or instrument (“zero trigger”) between the earlier close of the applicable foreign market and the NYSE Close may be deemed to be a significant event, prompting the application of the pricing model (effectively resulting in daily fair valuations). Foreign exchanges may permit trading in foreign (non-U.S.) equity securities on days when a Fund is not open for business, which may result in a Fund’s portfolio investments being affected when shareholders are unable to buy or sell shares.
Investments valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from Pricing Sources. As a result, the value of such investments and, in turn, the NAV of a Fund’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of investments traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that a Fund is not open for business. As a result, to the extent that a Fund holds foreign (non-U.S.) investments, the value of those investments may change at times when shareholders are unable to buy or sell shares and the value of such investments will be reflected in a Fund’s next calculated NAV.
Whole loans may be fair valued using inputs that take into account borrower- or loan-level data (e.g., credit risk of the borrower) that is updated periodically throughout the life of each individual loan; any new borrower- or loan-level data received in written reports periodically by the Fund normally will be taken into account in calculating the NAV. The Fund’s whole loan investments, including those originated by the Fund or through an alternative lending platform, generally are fair valued in accordance with procedures approved by the Board.
Fair valuation may require subjective determinations about the value of a security. While the Funds’ and Valuation Designee’s policies and procedures are intended to result in a calculation of a Fund’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing, a Fund cannot ensure that fair values accurately reflect the price that a Fund could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing (for instance, in a forced or distressed sale). The prices used by a Fund may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold.
Under certain circumstances, the per share NAV of a class of each Fund’s shares may be different from the per share NAV of another class of shares as a result of the different daily expense accruals applicable to each class of shares.
(b) Fair Value Hierarchy U.S. GAAP describes fair value as the price that a Fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. It establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods and requires disclosure of the fair value hierarchy, separately for each major category of assets and liabilities, that segregates fair value measurements into levels (Level 1, 2 or 3). The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. Levels 1, 2 and 3 of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:
| ∎ | Level 1 — Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets or exchanges for identical assets and liabilities. |
| ∎ | Level 2 — Significant other observable inputs, which may include, but are not limited to, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar |
| SEMIANNUAL REPORT | JUNE 30, 2024 | 61 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market corroborated inputs. |
| ∎ | Level 3 — Significant unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available, which may include assumptions made by the Valuation Designee that are used in determining the fair value of investments. |
Assets or liabilities categorized as Level 2 or 3 as of period end have been transferred between Levels 2 and 3 since the prior period due to changes in the method utilized in valuing the investments. Transfers from Level 2 to Level 3 are a result of a change, in the normal course of business, from the use of methods used by Pricing Sources (Level 2) to the use of a Broker Quote or valuation technique which utilizes significant unobservable inputs due to an absence of current or reliable market-based data (Level 3). Transfers from Level 3 to Level 2 are a result of the availability of current and reliable market-based data provided by Pricing Sources or other valuation techniques which utilize significant observable inputs. In accordance with the requirements of U.S. GAAP, the amounts of transfers into and out of Level 3, if material, are disclosed in the Notes to Schedule of Investments for each respective Fund.
For fair valuations using significant unobservable inputs, U.S. GAAP requires a reconciliation of the beginning to ending balances for reported fair values that presents changes attributable to realized gain (loss), unrealized appreciation (depreciation), purchases and sales, accrued discounts (premiums), and transfers into and out of the Level 3 category during the period. The end of period value is used for the transfers between Levels of a Fund’s assets and liabilities. Additionally, U.S. GAAP requires quantitative information regarding the significant unobservable inputs used in the determination of fair value of assets or liabilities categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. In accordance with the requirements of U.S. GAAP, a fair value hierarchy, and if material, a Level 3 reconciliation and details of significant unobservable inputs, have been included in the Notes to Schedule of Investments for each respective Fund.
(c) Valuation Techniques and the Fair Value Hierarchy
Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 trading assets and trading liabilities, at fair value The valuation methods (or “techniques”) and significant inputs used in determining the fair values of portfolio securities or other assets and liabilities categorized as Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Common stocks, ETFs, exchange-traded notes and financial derivative instruments, such as futures contracts, rights and warrants, or options on futures that are traded on a national securities exchange, are stated at the last reported sale or settlement price on the day of valuation. To the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
Investments in registered open-end investment companies (other than ETFs) will be valued based upon the NAVs of such investments and are categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Investments in unregistered open-end investment companies will be calculated based upon the NAVs of such investments and are considered Level 1 provided that the NAVs are observable, calculated daily and are the value at which both purchases and sales will be conducted.

Fixed income securities including corporate, convertible and municipal bonds and notes, U.S. government agencies, U.S. treasury obligations, sovereign issues, bank loans, convertible preferred securities, non-U.S. bonds and short-term debt instruments (such as commercial paper, time deposits and certificates of deposit) are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or Pricing Sources that use broker-dealer quotations, reported trades or valuation estimates from their internal pricing models. The Pricing Sources’ internal models use inputs that are observable such as issuer details, interest rates, yield curves, prepayment speeds, credit risks/spreads, default rates and quoted prices for similar assets. Securities that use similar valuation techniques and inputs as described above are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Fixed income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis or as a repurchase commitment in a sale-buyback transaction are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date and are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Proxy pricing procedures set the base price of a fixed income security and subsequently adjust the price proportionally to market value changes of a pre-determined security deemed to be comparable in duration, generally a U.S. Treasury or sovereign note based on country of issuance. The base price may be a broker-dealer quote, transaction price or an internal value as derived by analysis of market data. The base price of the security may be reset on a periodic basis based on the availability of market data and procedures approved by the Valuation Oversight Committee. Significant changes in the unobservable inputs of the proxy pricing process (the base price) would result in direct and proportional changes in the fair value of the security. These securities are categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
The Discounted Cash Flow model is based on future cash flows generated by the investment and may be normalized based on expected investment performance. Future cash flows are discounted to present value using an appropriate rate of return, typically calibrated to the initial transaction date and adjusted based on Capital Asset Pricing Model and/or other market-based inputs. Significant changes in the unobservable inputs would result in direct and proportional changes in the fair value of the security. These securities are categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Short-term debt instruments (such as commercial paper, time deposits and certificates of deposit) having a remaining maturity of 60 days or less may be valued at amortized cost, so long as the amortized cost value of such short-term debt instruments is approximately the same as the fair value of the instrument as determined without the use of amortized cost valuation. These securities are categorized as Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy depending on the source of the base price.
When a fair valuation method is applied by PIMCO that uses significant unobservable inputs, investments will be priced by a method that the Valuation Designee believes reflects fair value and are categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Loans and Other Indebtedness, Loan Participations and Assignments are direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owed to lenders or lending syndicates by corporate, governmental or other borrowers. A Fund’s investments in loans may be in the form of direct investments, participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties or exposure to investments in loans through investments in a mutual fund or other pooled investment vehicle. A loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution (the “agent”) that acts as agent for all holders. The agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. A Fund may invest in multiple series or tranches of a loan, which may have varying terms and carry different associated risks. A Fund generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the borrower. As a result, a Fund may be subject to the credit risk of both the borrower and the agent that is selling the loan agreement.
In the event of the insolvency of the agent selling a participation, a Fund may be treated as a general creditor of the agent and may not benefit from any set-off between the agent and the borrower. When a Fund purchases assignments from agents it acquires direct rights against the borrowers of the loans. These loans may include participations in bridge loans, which are loans taken out by borrowers for a short period (typically less than one year) pending arrangement of more permanent financing through, for example, the issuance of bonds, frequently high yield bonds issued for the purpose of acquisitions.
Investments in loans are generally subject to risks similar to those of investments in other types of debt obligations, including, among others, credit risk, interest rate risk, variable and floating rate securities risk, and risks associated with mortgage-related securities. In addition, in many cases loans are subject to the risks associated with below-investment grade securities. The Funds may be subject to heightened or additional risks and potential liabilities and costs by investing in mezzanine and other subordinated loans, including those arising under bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, equitable subordination, environmental and other laws and regulations, and risks and costs associated with debt servicing and taking foreclosure actions associated with the loans.
Additionally, because loans are not ordinarily registered with the SEC or any state securities commission or listed on any securities exchange, there is usually less publicly available information about such instruments. In addition, loans may not be considered “securities” for purposes of the anti-fraud provisions under the federal securities laws and, as a result, as a purchaser of these instruments, a Fund may not be entitled to the anti-fraud protections of the federal securities laws. In the course of investing in such instruments, a Fund may come into possession of material nonpublic information and, because of prohibitions on trading in securities of issuers while in possession of such information, the Fund may be unable to enter into a transaction in a publicly-traded security of that issuer when it would otherwise be advantageous for the Fund to do so. Alternatively, a Fund may choose not to receive material nonpublic information about an issuer of such loans, with the result that the Fund may have less information about such issuers than other investors who transact in such assets.
The types of loans and related investments in which the Funds may invest include, among others, senior loans, subordinated loans (including second lien loans, B-Notes and mezzanine loans), whole loans, commercial real estate and other commercial loans and structured loans. The Funds may acquire direct interests in loans through primary loan distributions and/or in private transactions. In

the case of subordinated loans, there may be significant indebtedness ranking ahead of the borrower’s obligation to the holder of such a loan, including in the event of the borrower’s insolvency. Mezzanine loans are typically secured by a pledge of an equity interest in the mortgage borrower that owns the real estate rather than an interest in a mortgage.
Investments in loans may include unfunded loan commitments, which are contractual obligations for future funding. Unfunded loan commitments may include revolving credit facilities, which may obligate a Fund to supply additional cash to the borrower on demand. Unfunded loan commitments represent a future obligation in full, even though a percentage of the committed amount may not be utilized by the borrower. When investing in a loan participation, a Fund has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the agent selling the loan agreement and only upon receipt of payments by the agent from the borrower. Because investing in unfunded loan commitments creates a future obligation for a Fund to provide funding to a borrower upon demand in exchange for a fee, the Fund will segregate or earmark liquid assets with the Fund’s custodian in amounts sufficient to satisfy any such future obligations. A Fund may receive a commitment fee based on the undrawn portion of the underlying line of credit portion of a loan. In certain circumstances, a Fund may receive a penalty fee upon the prepayment of a loan by a borrower. Fees earned or paid are recorded as a component of interest income or interest expense, respectively, on the Statements of Operations. Unfunded loan commitments, if any, are reflected as a liability on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, loans on real property. Mortgage-related securities are interests in pools of residential or commercial mortgage loans, including mortgage loans made by savings and loan institutions, mortgage bankers, commercial banks and others. These securities typically provide a monthly payment which consists of both principal and interest payments. Interest may be determined by fixed or adjustable rates. In times of declining interest rates, there is a greater likelihood that a Fund’s higher yielding securities will be pre-paid with the Fund being unable to reinvest the proceeds in an investment with as great a yield. The rate of prepayments on underlying mortgages will affect the price and volatility of a mortgage-related security, and may have the effect of shortening or extending the effective duration of the security relative to what was anticipated at the time of purchase. Interest-only and principal-only securities are especially sensitive to interest rate changes, which can affect not only their prices but can also change the income flows and repayment assumptions about those investments. The timely payment of principal and interest of certain mortgage-related securities is guaranteed with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. Pools created and guaranteed by non-governmental issuers, including government-sponsored corporations, may be supported by various forms of insurance or guarantees, but there can be no assurance that private insurers or guarantors can meet their obligations under the insurance policies or guarantee arrangements. Many of the risks of investing in mortgage-related securities secured by commercial mortgage loans reflect the effects of local and other economic conditions on real estate markets, the ability of tenants to make lease payments and the ability of a property to attract and retain tenants. These securities may be less liquid and may exhibit greater price volatility than other types of mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. Other asset-backed securities are created from many types of assets, including, but not limited to, auto loans, accounts receivable such as credit card receivables and hospital account receivables, home equity loans, student loans, boat loans, mobile home loans, recreational vehicle loans, manufactured

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
housing loans, aircraft leases, computer leases, syndicated bank loans, peer-to-peer loans and litigation finance loans. The Funds may invest in any level of the capital structure of an issuer of mortgage-backed or asset-backed securities, including the equity or “first loss” tranche.
Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (“CMOs”) are debt obligations of a legal entity that are collateralized by whole mortgage loans or private mortgage bonds and divided into classes. CMOs are structured into multiple classes, often referred to as “tranches,” with each class bearing a different stated maturity and entitled to a different schedule for payments of principal and interest, including prepayments. CMOs may be less liquid and may exhibit greater price volatility than other types of mortgage-related or asset-backed securities.
As CMOs have evolved, some classes of CMO bonds have become more common. For example, a Fund may invest in parallel-pay and planned amortization class (“PAC”) CMOs and multi-class pass-through certificates. Parallel-pay CMOs and multi-class pass-through certificates are structured to provide payments of principal on each payment date to more than one class. These simultaneous payments are taken into account in calculating the stated maturity date or final distribution date of each class, which, as with other CMO and multi-class pass-through structures, must be retired by its stated maturity date or final distribution date but may be retired earlier. PACs generally require payments of a specified amount of principal on each payment date. PACs are parallel-pay CMOs with the required principal amount on such securities having the highest priority after interest has been paid to all classes. Any CMO or multi-class pass-through structure that includes PAC securities must also have support tranches — known as support bonds, companion bonds or non-PAC bonds — which lend or absorb principal cash flows to allow the PAC securities to maintain their stated maturities and final distribution dates within a range of actual prepayment experience. These support tranches are subject to a higher level of maturity risk compared to other mortgage-related securities, and usually provide a higher yield to compensate investors. If principal cash flows are received in amounts outside a pre-determined range such that the support bonds cannot lend or absorb sufficient cash flows to the PAC securities as intended, the PAC securities are subject to heightened maturity risk.
Other Investment Companies The Funds may invest up to 5% of their total assets in securities of other closed-end investment companies that invest primarily in municipal bonds and other municipal securities of the types in which the Funds may invest directly (“Acquired Funds”). A copy of each Acquired Fund’s shareholder report is available at the SEC website at www.sec.gov.
Stripped Mortgage-Backed Securities (“SMBS”) are derivative multi-class mortgage securities. SMBS are usually structured with two classes that receive different proportions of the interest and principal distributions on a pool of mortgage assets. An SMBS will have one class that will receive all of the interest (the interest-only or “IO” class), while the other class will receive the entire principal (the principal-only or “PO” class). Payments received for IOs are included in interest income on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Because no principal will be received at the maturity of an IO class, adjustments are made to the cost of the security on a monthly basis until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Payments received for POs are treated as reductions to the cost and par value of the securities.

Perpetual Bonds are fixed income securities with no maturity date but pay a coupon in perpetuity (with no specified ending or maturity date). Unlike typical fixed income securities, there is no obligation for perpetual bonds to repay principal. The coupon payments, however, are mandatory. While perpetual bonds have no maturity date, they may have a callable date in which the perpetuity is eliminated and the issuer may return the principal received on the specified call date. Additionally, a perpetual bond may have additional features, such as interest rate increases at periodic dates or an increase as of a predetermined point in the future.
Restricted Investments are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale and may generally be sold privately, but may be required to be registered or exempted from such registration before being sold to the public. Private placement securities are generally considered to be restricted except for those securities traded between qualified institutional investors under the provisions of Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. Disposal of restricted investments may involve time-consuming negotiations and expenses, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult to achieve. Restricted investments held by the Funds as of June 30, 2024, as applicable, are disclosed in the Notes to Schedules of Investments.
Securities Issued by U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises are obligations of and, in certain cases, guaranteed by, the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities. Some U.S. Government securities, such as Treasury bills, notes and bonds, and securities guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association, are supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government; others, such as those of the Federal Home Loan Banks, are supported by the right of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “U.S. Treasury”); and others, such as those of the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”), are supported by the discretionary authority of the U.S. Government to purchase the agency’s obligations. U.S. Government securities may include zero coupon securities which do not distribute interest on a current basis and tend to be subject to a greater risk than interest-paying securities of similar maturities.
Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include FNMA and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). FNMA is a government-sponsored corporation. FNMA purchases conventional (i.e., not insured or guaranteed by any government agency) residential mortgages from a list of approved seller/servicers which include state and federally chartered savings and loan associations, mutual savings banks, commercial banks and credit unions and mortgage bankers. Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA, but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC is a government sponsored corporation that issues Participation Certificates (“PCs”), which are pass-through securities, each representing an undivided interest in a pool of residential mortgages. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but PCs are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. Instead, they are supported only by the discretionary authority of the U.S. Government to purchase the agency’s obligations.
When-Issued Transactions are purchases or sales made on a when-issued basis. These transactions are made conditionally because a security, although authorized, has not yet been issued in the market. Transactions to purchase or sell securities on a when-issued basis involve a commitment by a
| SEMIANNUAL REPORT | JUNE 30, 2024 | 67 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
Fund to purchase or sell these securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. A Fund may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a realized gain (loss).
5. BORROWINGS AND OTHER FINANCING TRANSACTIONS
The Funds may enter into the borrowings and other financing transactions described below to the extent permitted by each Fund’s respective investment policies.
The following disclosures contain information on a Fund’s ability to lend or borrow cash or securities to the extent permitted under the Act, which may be viewed as borrowing or financing transactions by a Fund. The location of these instruments in each Fund’s financial statements is described below.
Repurchase Agreements Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, a Fund purchases an underlying debt obligation (collateral) subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and a Fund to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. In an open maturity repurchase agreement, there is no pre-determined repurchase date and the agreement can be terminated by a Fund or counterparty at any time. The underlying securities for all repurchase agreements are held by a Fund’s custodian or designated subcustodians (in the case of tri-party repurchase agreements) and in certain instances will remain in custody with the counterparty. Traditionally, a Fund has used bilateral repurchase agreements wherein the underlying securities will be held by a Fund’s custodian. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Repurchase agreements, if any, including accrued interest, are included on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Interest earned is recorded as a component of interest income on the Statements of Operations. In periods of increased demand for collateral, a Fund may pay a fee for the receipt of collateral, which may result in interest expense to the Fund.
6. FINANCIAL DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
The Funds may enter into the financial derivative instruments described below to the extent permitted by each Fund’s respective investment policies.
The following disclosures contain information on how and why the Funds use financial derivative instruments, and how financial derivative instruments affect the Funds’ financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The location and fair value amounts of these instruments on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and the net realized gain (loss) and net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the Statements of Operations, each categorized by type of financial derivative contract and related risk exposure, are included in a table in the Notes to Schedules of Investments. The financial derivative instruments outstanding as of period end and the amounts of net realized gain (loss) and net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on financial derivative instruments during the period, as disclosed in the Notes to Schedules of Investments, serve as indicators of the volume of financial derivative activity for the Funds.
Futures Contracts are agreements to buy or sell a security or other asset for a set price on a future date and are traded on an exchange. A Fund may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in
| 68 | PIMCO MUNICIPAL INTERVAL FUNDS |
(Unaudited)
June 30, 2024
market value of the securities held by a Fund and the prices of futures contracts and the possibility of an illiquid market. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, a Fund is required to deposit with its futures broker an amount of cash, U.S. Government and Agency Obligations, or select sovereign debt, in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and based on such movements in the price of the contracts, an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value may be posted or collected by a Fund (“Futures Variation Margin”). Futures Variation Margins, if any, are disclosed within centrally cleared financial derivative instruments on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Gains (losses) are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or close. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the Futures Variation Margin included within exchange traded or centrally cleared financial derivative instruments on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

AMT Bonds Risk is the risk that “AMT Bonds,” which are municipal securities that pay interest that is taxable under the federal alternative minimum tax applicable to noncorporate taxpayers, may expose a Fund to certain risks in addition to those typically associated with municipal bonds. Interest or principal on AMT Bonds paid out of current or anticipated revenues from a specific project or specific asset may be adversely impacted by declines in revenue from the project or asset. Declines in general business activity could also affect the economic viability of facilities that are the sole source of revenue to support AMT Bonds. In this regard, AMT Bonds may entail greater risks than general obligation municipal bonds. For shareholders subject to the federal alternative minimum tax, a portion of the Fund’s distributions may not be exempt from gross federal income, which may give rise to alternative minimum tax liability.
California State-Specific Risk is the risk that a Fund, by investing in municipal bonds issued by or on behalf of the State of California and its political subdivisions, financing authorities and their agencies, may be affected significantly by political, economic, regulatory, social, environmental, or public health developments affecting the ability of California tax-exempt issuers to pay interest or repay principal.
Call Risk is the risk that an issuer may exercise its right to redeem a fixed income security earlier than expected (a call). Issuers may call outstanding securities prior to their maturity for a number of
| 70 | PIMCO MUNICIPAL INTERVAL FUNDS |
(Unaudited)
June 30, 2024
reasons (e.g., declining interest rates, changes in credit spreads and improvements in the issuer’s credit quality). If an issuer calls a security that a Fund has invested in, the Fund may not recoup the full amount of its initial investment or may not realize the full anticipated earnings from the investment and may be forced to reinvest in lower-yielding securities, securities with greater credit risks or securities with other, less favorable features.
Confidential Information Access Risk is the risk that, in managing a Fund (and other PIMCO clients), PIMCO may from time to time have the opportunity to receive material, non-public information (“Confidential Information”) about the issuers of certain investments, including, without limitation, senior floating rate loans, other loans and related investments being considered for acquisition by the Fund or held in the Fund’s portfolio. If PIMCO intentionally or unintentionally comes into possession of Confidential Information, it may be unable, potentially for a substantial period of time, to purchase or sell investments to which such Confidential Information relates.
Counterparty Risk is the risk that a Fund will be subject to credit risk with respect to the counterparties to the derivative contracts and other instruments entered into by the Fund or held by special purpose or structured vehicles in which the Fund invests. If a counterparty becomes bankrupt or otherwise fails to perform its obligations under a derivative contract due to financial difficulties, the Fund may experience significant delays in obtaining any recovery (including recovery of any collateral it has provided to the counterparty) in a dissolution, assignment for the benefit of creditors, liquidation, winding-up, bankruptcy, or other analogous proceeding.
Credit Default Swaps Risk is the risk of investing in credit default swaps, including illiquidity risk, counterparty risk, leverage risk and credit risk. A buyer generally also will lose its investment and recover nothing should no credit event occur and the swap is held to its termination date. If a credit event were to occur, the value of any deliverable obligation received by the seller (if any), coupled with the upfront or periodic payments previously received, may be less than the full notional value it pays to the buyer, resulting in a loss of value to the seller. When a Fund acts as a seller of a credit default swap, it is exposed to many of the same risks of leverage described herein. As the seller, a Fund would receive a stream of payments over the term of the swap agreement provided that no event of default has occurred with respect to the referenced debt obligation upon which the swap is based. A Fund would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, if a default occurs, the stream of payments may stop and, in addition to its total net assets, the Fund would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. In addition, selling credit default swaps may not be profitable for a Fund if no secondary market exists or the Fund is otherwise unable to close out these transactions at advantageous times.
Credit Risk is the risk that a Fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a fixed income security (including a security purchased with securities lending collateral), or the counterparty to a derivative contract, or the issuer or guarantor of collateral, repurchase agreement or a loan of portfolio securities, is unable or unwilling, or is perceived (whether by market participants, rating agencies, pricing services or otherwise) as unable or unwilling, to make timely principal and/or interest payments or to otherwise honor its financial obligations.
Cyber Security Risk is the risk that, as the use of technology, including cloud-based technology, has become more prevalent in the course of business, the Funds have become potentially more
| SEMIANNUAL REPORT | JUNE 30, 2024 | 71 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
susceptible to operational and information security risks resulting from breaches in cyber security. A breach in cyber security refers to both intentional and unintentional cyber events from outside threat actors or internal resources that may, among other things, cause a Fund to lose proprietary information, suffer data corruption and/or destruction, lose operational capacity, result in the unauthorized release or other misuse of confidential information, or otherwise disrupt normal business operations. Cyber security failures or breaches may result in financial losses to a Fund and its shareholders. These failures or breaches may also result in disruptions to business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses; interference with a Fund’s ability to calculate its net asset value, process shareholder transactions or otherwise transact business with shareholders; impediments to trading; violations of applicable privacy and other laws; regulatory fines; penalties; third-party claims in litigation; reputational damage; reimbursement or other compensation costs; additional compliance and cyber security risk management costs and other adverse consequences. In addition, substantial costs may be incurred in order to prevent any cyber incidents in the future.
There is also a risk that cyber security breaches may not be detected. The Funds and their shareholders may suffer losses as a result of a cyber security breach related to the Funds, their service providers, trading counterparties or the issuers in which a Fund invests.
Derivatives Risk is the risk of investing in derivative instruments (such as forwards, futures, swaps and structured securities) and other similar investments, including leverage, liquidity, interest rate, market, counterparty (including credit), operational, legal and management risks and valuation complexity. Changes in the value of a derivative or other similar investment may not correlate perfectly with, and may be more sensitive to market events than, the underlying asset, rate or index, and a Fund could lose more than the initial amount invested. Changes in the value of a derivative or other similar investment may also create margin delivery or settlement payment obligations for a Fund. A Fund’s use of derivatives or other similar investments may result in losses to the Fund, a reduction in the Fund’s returns and/or increased volatility. Non-centrally-cleared over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivatives or other similar investments are also subject to the risk that a counterparty to the transaction will not fulfill its contractual obligations to the other party, as many of the protections afforded to centrally-cleared derivative transactions might not be available for non-centrally cleared OTC derivatives or other similar investments. The primary credit risk on derivatives or other similar investments that are exchange- traded or traded through a central clearing counterparty resides with a Fund’s clearing broker, or the clearinghouse. Changes in regulation relating to a registered fund’s use of derivatives and related investments could potentially limit or impact a Fund’s ability to invest in derivatives, limit a Fund’s ability to employ certain strategies that use derivatives or other similar investments and/or adversely affect the value of derivatives or other similar investments and a Fund’s performance.
Distribution Rate Risk is the risk that the Fund’s distribution rate may be affected by numerous factors, including but not limited to changes in realized and projected market returns, fluctuations in market interest rates, Fund performance, and other factors. There can be no assurance that a change in market conditions or other factors will not result in a change in a Fund’s distribution rate or that the rate will be sustainable in the future.

High Yield Securities Risk is the risk that high yield securities and unrated securities of similar credit quality (commonly known as “junk bonds”) are subject to greater levels of credit, call and liquidity risks, including the risk that a court will subordinate high yield senior debt to other debt of the issuer or take other actions detrimental to holders of the senior debt. High yield securities are considered primarily speculative with respect to the issuer’s continuing ability to make principal and interest payments, and may be more volatile than higher-rated securities of similar maturity.
Inflation/Deflation Risk is the risk that the value of assets or income from a Fund’s investments will be worth less in the future as inflation decreases the value of payments at future dates. As inflation increases, the real value of the Fund’s portfolio could decline. Deflation risk is the risk that prices throughout the economy decline over time. Deflation may have an adverse effect on the creditworthiness of issuers and may make issuer default more likely, which may result in a decline in the value of the Fund’s portfolio and common shares.
Insurance Risk is the risk that a Fund may purchase municipal securities that are secured by insurance, bank credit agreements or escrow accounts and the credit quality of the companies that provide such credit enhancements will affect the value of those securities. The insurance feature of a municipal security does not guarantee the full payment of principal and interest through the life of an insured obligation, the market value of the insured obligation or the net asset value of the common shares represented by such insured obligation.
Interest Rate Risk is the risk that fixed income securities and other instruments in a Fund’s portfolio will fluctuate in value because of a change in interest rates; a fund with a longer average portfolio duration will be more sensitive to changes in interest rates than a fund with a shorter average portfolio duration.
Issuer Risk is the risk that the value of a security may decline for a reason directly related to the issuer, such as management performance, major litigation, investigations or other controversies, changes in financial condition or credit rating, changes in government regulations affecting the issuer or its competitive environment and strategic initiatives such as mergers, acquisitions or dispositions and the market response to any such initiatives, financial leverage, reputation or reduced demand for the issuer’s goods or services.
Leverage Risk is the risk that certain transactions of a Fund, such as reverse repurchase agreements, loans of portfolio securities, and the use of when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment transactions, or derivative instruments, may give rise to leverage, magnifying gains and losses and causing a Fund to be more volatile than if it had not been leveraged. Leveraging transactions pursued by a Fund may increase its duration and sensitivity to interest rate movements. This means that leverage entails a heightened risk of loss.
Liquidity Risk is the risk that a particular investment may be difficult to purchase or sell and that a Fund may be unable to sell illiquid investments at an advantageous time or price or possibly require a Fund to dispose of other investments at unfavorable times or prices in order to satisfy its obligations, which could prevent the Fund from taking advantage of other investment opportunities. Additionally, the market for certain investments may become illiquid under adverse market or economic conditions independent of any specific adverse changes in the conditions of a particular issuer.
Loan Origination Risk is the risk associated with the fact that a Fund may also seek to originate loans, including, without limitation, residential and/or commercial real estate or mortgage-related
| SEMIANNUAL REPORT | JUNE 30, 2024 | 73 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
loans, consumer loans or other types of loans, which may be in the form of whole loans, secured and unsecured notes, senior and second lien loans, mezzanine loans, bridge loans or similar investments. A Fund may originate loans to corporations and/or other legal entities and individuals, including foreign (non-U.S.) entities and individuals. Such borrowers may have credit ratings that are determined by one or more NRSROs or PIMCO to be below investment grade. This may include loans to public or private firms or individuals, such as in connection with housing development projects.
The loans a Fund invests in or originates may vary in maturity and/or duration. A Fund is not limited in the amount, size or type of loans it may invest in and/or originate, including with respect to a single borrower or with respect to borrowers that are determined to be below investment grade, other than pursuant to any applicable law. A Fund’s investment in or origination of loans may also be limited by the requirements the Fund intends to observe under Subchapter M of the Code in order to qualify as a RIC. A Fund may subsequently offer such investments for sale to third parties, provided that there is no assurance that a Fund will complete the sale of such an investment. If a Fund is unable to sell, assign or successfully close transactions for the loans that it originates, the Fund will be forced to hold its interest in such loans for an indeterminate period of time. This could result in a Fund’s investments having high exposure to certain borrowers. A Fund will be responsible for the expenses associated with originating a loan (whether or not consummated). This may include significant legal and due diligence expenses, which will be indirectly borne by a Fund and Common Shareholders.
Loans and Other Indebtedness; Loan Participations and Assignments Risk is the risk that scheduled interest or principal payments will not be made in a timely manner or at all, either of which may adversely affect the values of a loan. Additionally, there is a risk that the collateral underlying a loan may be unavailable or insufficient to satisfy a borrower’s obligation, and a Fund could become part owner of any collateral if a loan is foreclosed, subjecting a Fund to costs associated with owning and disposing of the collateral. In the event of the insolvency of the lender selling a participation, there is a risk that a Fund may be treated as a general creditor of the lender and may not benefit from any set-off between the lender and the borrower. If a loan is foreclosed, a Fund may become owner of the loan’s collateral. A Fund may bear the costs and liabilities associated with owning and holding or disposing of the collateral. There is the risk that a Fund may have difficulty disposing of loans and loan participations due to the lack of a liquid secondary market for loans and loan participations. To the extent a Fund acquires loans, including bank loans, the Fund may be subject to greater levels of credit risk, call risk, settlement risk and liquidity risk than funds that do not acquire such instruments.
Management Risk is the risk that the investment techniques and risk analyses applied by PIMCO, including the use of quantitative models or methods, will not produce the desired results and that actual or potential conflicts of interest, legislative, regulatory, or tax restrictions, policies or developments may affect the investment techniques available to PIMCO and the individual portfolio managers in connection with managing the Fund and may cause PIMCO to restrict or prohibit participation in certain investments. There is no guarantee that the investment objective of a Fund will be achieved.
Market Disruptions Risk is the risk of investment and operational risks associated with financial, economic and other global market developments and disruptions, including those arising from war,

(Unaudited)
June 30, 2024
military conflicts, terrorism, market manipulation, government interventions, defaults and shutdowns, political changes or diplomatic developments, public health emergencies (such as the spread of infectious diseases, pandemics and epidemics), bank failures and natural/environmental disasters, climate-change and climate related events, which can all negatively impact the securities markets, and cause a Fund to lose value. These events can also impair the technology and other operational systems upon which a Fund’s service providers, including PIMCO as a Fund’s investment adviser, rely, and could otherwise disrupt a Fund’s service providers’ ability to fulfill their obligations to a Fund.
Market Risk is the risk that the value of securities owned by a Fund may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably due to factors affecting securities markets generally or particular industries or companies.
Municipal Bond Risk is the risk that a Fund may be affected significantly by the economic, regulatory or political developments affecting the ability of issuers of debt securities whose interest is, in the opinion of bond counsel for the issuer at the time of issuance, exempt from federal income tax to pay interest or repay principal.
Municipal Bond Market Risk is the risk that a Fund may be adversely affected due to factors such as limited amount of public information available regarding the municipal bonds held in the Fund as compared to that for corporate equities or bonds, legislative changes and local and business developments, general conditions of the municipal bond market, the size of the particular offering, the rating of the issue and the maturity of the obligation.
Municipal Project-Specific Risk is the risk that a Fund may be more sensitive to adverse economic, business or political developments if it invests a substantial portion of its assets in the bonds of specific projects (such as those relating to education, health care, housing, transportation, and utilities), industrial development bonds, or in bonds from issuers in a single state.
New York State-Specific Risk is the risk that a Fund, by investing in municipal bonds issued by or on behalf of the State of New York and its political subdivisions, financing authorities and their agencies, may be affected significantly by political, economic, regulatory, social, environmental, or public health developments affecting the ability of New York tax-exempt issuers to pay interest or repay principal.
New/Small Fund Risk is the risk that a new or smaller fund’s performance may not represent how a fund is expected to or may perform in the long term. In addition, new funds have limited operating histories for investors to evaluate and new and smaller funds may not attract sufficient assets to achieve investment and trading efficiencies.
Non-Diversification Risk is the risk of focusing investments in a small number of issuers, including being more susceptible to risks associated with a single economic, political or regulatory occurrence than a more diversified portfolio might be. Funds that are “non-diversified” may invest a greater percentage of their assets in the securities of a single issuer (such as bonds issued by a particular state) than funds that are “diversified.”
Operational Risk is the risk arising from factors such as processing errors, human errors, inadequate or failed internal or external processes, failures in systems and technology, changes in personnel and
| SEMIANNUAL REPORT | JUNE 30, 2024 | 75 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
errors caused by third-party service providers. The occurrence of any of these failures, errors or breaches could result in a loss of information, regulatory scrutiny, reputational damage or other events, any of which could have a material adverse effect on a Fund. While a Fund seeks to minimize such events through controls and oversight, there may still be failures that could cause losses to the Fund.
Other Investment Companies Risk is the risk that Common Shareholders may be subject to duplicative expenses to the extent a Fund invests in other investment companies. In addition, these other investment companies may utilize leverage, in which case an investment would subject the Fund to additional risks associated with leverage.
Portfolio Turnover Risk is the risk that a high portfolio turnover will result in greater expenses to a Fund, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may result in realization of taxable capital gains (including short-term capital gains, which are generally taxed to shareholders at ordinary income tax rates when distributed net of short-term capital losses and net long-term capital losses) and may adversely affect a Fund’s after-tax returns.
Potential Conflicts of Interest Risk — Allocation of Investment Opportunities is the risk that PIMCO’s or any of its affiliate’s interests or the interests of its clients may conflict with those of the Funds and the results of a Fund’s investment activities may differ from those of the Fund’s affiliates, or another account managed by PIMCO or its affiliates, and it is possible that a Fund could sustain losses during periods in which one or more of the Fund’s affiliates and/or other accounts managed by PIMCO or its affiliates, including proprietary accounts, achieve profits on their trading.
Privacy and Data Security Risk is the risk resulting from the fact that the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (“GLBA”) and other laws limit the disclosure of certain non-public personal information about a consumer to non-affiliated third parties and require financial institutions to disclose certain privacy policies and practices with respect to information sharing with both affiliates and non-affiliated third parties. Many states and a number of non-U.S. jurisdictions have enacted privacy and data security laws requiring safeguards on the privacy and security of consumers’ personally identifiable information. Other laws deal with obligations to safeguard and dispose of private information in a manner designed to avoid its dissemination. Privacy rules adopted by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission and the SEC implement GLBA and other requirements and govern the disclosure of consumer financial information by certain financial institutions, ranging from banks to private investment funds. U.S. platforms following certain models generally are required to have privacy policies that conform to these GLBA and other requirements. In addition, such platforms typically have policies and procedures intended to maintain platform participants’ personal information securely and dispose of it properly.
Private Placements Risk is the risk that securities received in a private placement may be subject to strict restrictions on resale, and there may be no liquid secondary market or ready purchaser for such securities. Therefore, a Fund may be unable to dispose of such securities when it desires to do so, or at the most favorable time or price. Private placements may also raise valuation risks.
Puerto Rico-Specific Risk is the risk that by investing in municipal bonds issued by Puerto Rico or its instrumentalities, the Fund may be affected by certain developments, such as political, economic,
| 76 | PIMCO MUNICIPAL INTERVAL FUNDS |
(Unaudited)
June 30, 2024
environmental, social, regulatory or debt restructuring developments, that impact the ability or obligation of Puerto Rico municipal issuers to pay interest or repay principal.
Regulatory Changes Risk is the risk that is associated with the fact that financial entities, such as investment companies and investment advisers, are generally subject to extensive government regulation and intervention. Government regulation and/or intervention may change the way a Fund is regulated, affect the expenses incurred directly by the Fund and the value of its investments, and limit and /or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objectives. Government regulation may change frequently and may have significant adverse consequences. A Fund and the Investment Manager have historically been eligible for exemptions from certain regulations. However, there is no assurance that a Fund and PIMCO will continue to be eligible for such exemptions. Moreover, government regulation may have unpredictable and unintended effects.
Regulatory Risk — LIBOR is the risk related to the discontinuation and replacement of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). Certain instruments held by a Fund rely or relied in the past in some fashion upon LIBOR. Although the transition process away from LIBOR for most instruments has been completed, some LIBOR use is continuing and there are potential effects related to the transition away from LIBOR or the continued use of LIBOR on a Fund or on certain instruments in which the Fund invests, which can be difficult to ascertain and could result in losses to a Fund.
Reinvestment Risk is the risk that income from a Fund’s portfolio will decline if and when the Fund invests the proceeds from matured, traded or called debt obligations at market interest rates that are below the portfolio’s current earnings rate. A Fund also may choose to sell higher yielding portfolio securities and to purchase lower yielding securities to achieve greater portfolio diversification, because the portfolio managers believe the current holdings are overvalued or for other investment-related reasons.
Repurchase Offers Risk is the risk that results from the fact that the Funds are “interval funds” and, in order to provide liquidity to shareholders, the Funds, subject to applicable law, intend to conduct quarterly repurchase offers of each Fund’s outstanding Common Shares at NAV, subject to approval of the Board. The Funds believe that these repurchase offers are generally beneficial to each Fund’s shareholders, and repurchases generally will be funded from available cash or sales of portfolio securities. However, repurchase offers and the need to fund repurchase obligations may affect the ability of a Fund to be fully invested or force the Fund to maintain a higher percentage of its assets in liquid investments, which may harm the Fund’s investment performance. Moreover, diminution in the size of a Fund through repurchases may result in untimely sales of portfolio securities (with associated imputed transaction costs, which may be significant), and may limit the ability of the Fund to participate in new investment opportunities or to achieve its investment objectives.
Securities Lending Risk is the risk that, when a Fund lends portfolio securities, its investment performance will continue to reflect changes in the value of the securities loaned and lose rights in the collateral or delay in recovery of the collateral if the borrower fails to return the security loaned or becomes insolvent. A Fund may pay lending fees to a party arranging the loan, which may be an affiliate of the Fund.
| SEMIANNUAL REPORT | JUNE 30, 2024 | 77 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
Tax Risk is the risk that if, in any year, a Fund were to fail to qualify for treatment as a regulated investment company under the Tax Code, and were ineligible to or did not otherwise cure such failure, the Fund would be subject to tax on its taxable income at corporate rates and, when such income is distributed, shareholders would be subject to a further tax to the extent of the Fund’s current or accumulated earnings and profits.
U.S. Government Securities Risk is the risk that the obligations supported by (i) the full faith and credit of the United States, (ii) the right of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury, (iii) the discretionary authority of the U.S. Government to purchase the agency’s obligations (iv) or only by the credit of the agency, instrumentality or corporation will not be satisfied in full, or that such obligations will decrease in value or default. U.S. government securities are subject to market risk, interest rate risk and credit risk.
Valuation Risk is the risk that fair value pricing used when market quotations are not readily available may not result in adjustments to the prices of securities or other assets, or that fair value pricing may not reflect actual market value. It is possible that the fair value determined in good faith for a security or other asset will be materially different from quoted or published prices, from the prices used by others for the same security or other asset and/or from the value that actually could be or is realized upon the sale of that security or other asset.
(b) Other Risks
In general, a Fund may be subject to additional risks, including, but not limited to, risks related to government regulation and intervention in financial markets, operational risks, risks associated with financial, economic and global market disruptions, and cyber security risks. Please see a Fund’s prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a more detailed description of the risks of investing in the Fund. Please see the Important Information section of this report for additional discussion of certain regulatory and market developments that may impact a Fund’s performance.
8. MASTER NETTING ARRANGEMENTS
A Fund may be subject to various netting arrangements (“Master Agreements”) with select counterparties. Master Agreements govern the terms of certain transactions, and are intended to reduce the counterparty risk associated with relevant transactions by specifying credit protection mechanisms and providing standardization that is intended to improve legal certainty. Each type of Master Agreement governs certain types of transactions. Different types of transactions may be traded out of different legal entities or affiliates of a particular organization, resulting in the need for multiple agreements with a single counterparty. As the Master Agreements are specific to unique operations of different asset types, they allow a Fund to close out and net its total exposure to a counterparty in the event of a default with respect to all the transactions governed under a single Master Agreement with a counterparty. For financial reporting purposes the Statements of Assets and Liabilities generally present derivative assets and liabilities on a gross basis, which reflects the full risks and exposures prior to netting.
Master Agreements can also help limit counterparty risk by specifying collateral posting arrangements at pre-arranged exposure levels. Under most Master Agreements, collateral is routinely transferred if the total net exposure to certain transactions (net of existing collateral already in place) governed under the relevant Master Agreement with a counterparty in a given account exceeds a
| 78 | PIMCO MUNICIPAL INTERVAL FUNDS |
(Unaudited)
June 30, 2024
specified threshold, which typically ranges from zero to $250,000 depending on the counterparty and the type of Master Agreement. United States Treasury Bills and U.S. dollar cash are generally the preferred forms of collateral, although other securities may be used depending on the terms outlined in the applicable Master Agreement. Securities and cash pledged as collateral are reflected as assets on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as either a component of Investments at value (securities) or Deposits with counterparty. Cash collateral received is not typically held in a segregated account and as such is reflected as a liability on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as Deposits from counterparty. The market value of any securities received as collateral is not reflected as a component of NAV. A Fund’s overall exposure to counterparty risk can change substantially within a short period, as it is affected by each transaction subject to the relevant Master Agreement.
Master Repurchase Agreements and Global Master Repurchase Agreements (individually and collectively “Master Repo Agreements”) govern repurchase, reverse repurchase and certain sale-buyback transactions between a Fund and select counterparties. Master Repo Agreements maintain provisions for, among other things, initiation, income payments, events of default and maintenance of collateral. The market value of transactions under the Master Repo Agreement, collateral pledged or received, and the net exposure by counterparty as of period end are disclosed in the Notes to Schedules of Investments.
Master Securities Forward Transaction Agreements (“Master Forward Agreements”) govern certain forward settling transactions, such as TBA securities, delayed-delivery or certain sale-buyback transactions by and between a Fund and select counterparties. The Master Forward Agreements maintain provisions for, among other things, transaction initiation and confirmation, payment and transfer, events of default, termination and maintenance of collateral. The market value of forward settling transactions, collateral pledged or received, and the net exposure by counterparty as of period end is disclosed in the Notes to Schedules of Investments.
Customer Account Agreements and related addenda govern cleared derivatives transactions such as futures, options on futures and cleared OTC derivatives. Such transactions require posting of initial margin as determined by each relevant clearing agency which is segregated in an account at a futures commission merchant (“FCM”) registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. In the United States, counterparty risk may be reduced as creditors of an FCM cannot have a claim to Fund assets in the segregated account. FCM customers, such as the Funds, are permitted to transfer their customer account (and cleared derivative transactions held in such customer account) from one FCM to another FCM. Upon completion of the transfer, the customer maintains the same economic position with respect to the outstanding exposure. As such, these transfers are not recognized as dispositions and reacquisitions of the affected derivative positions. Variation margin, which reflects changes in market value, is generally exchanged daily, but may not be netted between futures and cleared OTC derivatives unless the parties have agreed to a separate arrangement in respect of portfolio margining. The porting of exposure between FCMs has no impact on the market value or accumulated unrealized appreciation (depreciation), initial margin posted, and any unsettled variation margin; these values as of period end are disclosed in the Notes to Schedules of Investments.
International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreements and Credit Support Annexes (“ISDA Master Agreements”) govern bilateral OTC derivative transactions entered into by a Fund with select counterparties. ISDA Master Agreements maintain provisions for general
| SEMIANNUAL REPORT | JUNE 30, 2024 | 79 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
obligations, representations, agreements, collateral posting and events of default or termination. Events of termination include conditions that may entitle counterparties to elect to terminate early and cause settlement of all outstanding transactions under the applicable ISDA Master Agreement. Any election to terminate early could be material to the financial statements. The ISDA Master Agreement may contain additional provisions that add counterparty protection beyond coverage of existing daily exposure if the counterparty has a decline in credit quality below a predefined level or as required by regulation. Similarly, if required by regulation, the Funds may be required to post additional collateral beyond coverage of daily exposure. These amounts, if any, may (or if required by law, will) be segregated with a third-party custodian. To the extent the Funds are required by regulation to post additional collateral beyond coverage of daily exposure, they could potentially incur costs, including in procuring eligible assets to meet collateral requirements, associated with such posting. The market value of OTC financial derivative instruments, collateral received or pledged, and net exposure by counterparty as of period end are disclosed in the Notes to Schedules of Investments.
9. FEES AND EXPENSES
(a) Management Fee PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Asset Management of America LLC (“Allianz Asset Management”) and serves as the Manager to the Funds, pursuant to an investment management agreement. Pursuant to an investment management agreement between the Manager and the Funds (the “Investment Management Agreement”), each Fund has agreed to pay the Manager an annual fee, payable monthly, in an amount equal to 0.75% of the Fund’s average daily “total managed assets.” Total managed assets include total assets of a Fund (including assets attributable to any reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls/buybacks, tender option bonds, borrowings and preferred shares that may be outstanding, if any) minus accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls/buybacks, tender option bonds and borrowings). For purposes of calculating “total managed assets,” the liquidation preference of any preferred shares outstanding is not considered a liability. By way of clarification, with respect to any reverse repurchase agreement, dollar roll/buybacks or similar transaction, “total managed assets” include any proceeds from the sale of an asset of a Fund to a counterparty in such a transaction, in addition to the value of the underlying asset as of the relevant measuring date. Furthermore, to the extent applicable, assets attributable to tender option bonds would be included as assets irrespective of whether or not they are included as assets for financial reporting purposes. However, to the extent a Fund does not contribute municipal bonds to a tender option bond trust but holds residual interests issued by such trust, the tender option bonds outstanding would not be included in the calculation of “total managed assets.” Pursuant to the Investment Management Agreement and subject to the general supervision of the Board, PIMCO, at its expense, provides or causes to be furnished all supervisory and administrative and other services reasonably necessary for the operation of a Fund, including but not limited to, expenses of most third-party service providers (e.g., audit, custodial, legal, transfer agency, printing) and other expenses, such as those associated with insurance, proxy solicitations and mailings for shareholder meetings, listing and related fees, tax services, valuation services and other services a Fund requires for its daily operations.
In rendering investment advisory services to each Fund, PIMCO may use the resources of one or more foreign (non-U.S.) affiliates that are not registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”) (the “PIMCO Overseas Affiliates”), to provide portfolio management, research and trading services to a Fund under the Memorandums of Understanding (“MOUs”). Each

of the PIMCO Overseas Affiliates are Participating Affiliates of PIMCO as that term is used in relief granted by the staff of the SEC allowing U.S. registered advisers to use investment advisory and trading resources of unregistered advisory affiliates subject to the regulatory supervision of the registered adviser. Each PIMCO Overseas Affiliate and any of their respective employees who provide services to the Funds are considered under the MOUs to be “associated persons” of PIMCO as that term is defined in the Advisers Act for purposes of PIMCO’s required supervision.
(b) Distribution and Servicing Fees PIMCO Investments LLC (the “Distributor,” an affiliate of PIMCO), serves as the principal underwriter and distributor of each Funds’ shares pursuant to a distribution contract (“Distribution Contract”) with each Fund.
PIMCO Flexible Municipal Income Fund has adopted separate Distribution and Servicing Plans for the Class A-1, Class A-2 and Class A-3 Common Shares of the Fund. PIMCO California Flexible Municipal Income Fund has adopted separate Distribution and Servicing Plans for the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3 and Class A-4 Common Shares of the Fund. Each Distribution and Servicing Plan operates in a manner consistent with Rule 12b-1 under the Act, which regulates the manner in which an open-end investment company may directly or indirectly bear the expenses of distributing its shares. Although neither Fund is an open-end investment company, each Fund has undertaken to comply with the terms of Rule 12b-1 as a condition of an exemptive order under the Act which permits it to have, among other things, a multi-class structure and distribution and shareholder servicing fees. Each Distribution and Servicing Plan permits the respective Fund to compensate the Distributor for providing or procuring through financial firms, distribution, administrative, recordkeeping, shareholder and/or related services with respect to the Class A-1 Common Shares, Class A-2 Common Shares, Class A-3 Common Shares or Class A-4 Common Shares, as applicable. The Management Fee and maximum Distribution and Servicing Fees for all classes, as applicable, are charged at the annual rates as noted in the following table:
| Management Fee(1) | Distribution and/or Servicing Fee(2) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Fund Name | All Classes | Institutional Class | Class A-1 | Class A-2 | Class A-3 | Class A-4 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||

| (1) | Calculated as a percentage of each Fund’s average daily “total managed assets” attributable to each class of respective Fund. Total managed assets includes total assets of a Fund (including assets attributable to any reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls/buybacks, tender option bonds, borrowings and preferred shares that may be outstanding, if any) minus accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls/buybacks, tender option bonds and borrowings). |
| (2) | Calculated as a percentage of each Fund’s average daily net assets attributable to the applicable class of respective Fund. |
The Distributor also received the contingent deferred sales charges paid by the shareholders upon certain redemptions of Class A-2 shares. For the period ended June 30, 2024, the Distributor retained $18,621 representing contingent deferred sales charges from PIMCO Flexible Municipal Income Fund.
(c) Fund Expenses Each Fund bears other expenses, which may vary and affect the total level of expenses paid by shareholders, such as (i) salaries and other compensation or expenses, including

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
travel expenses, of any of the Fund’s executive officers and employees, if any, who are not officers, directors, shareholders, members, partners or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees, if any, levied against the Fund; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions, and other portfolio transaction expenses incurred by or for the Fund (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of outside legal counsel or third-party consultants retained in connection with reviewing, negotiating and structuring specialized loans and other investments made by the Fund, and any costs associated with originating loans, asset securitizations, alternative lending-related strategies and so-called “broken-deal costs” (e.g., fees, costs, expenses and liabilities, including, for example, due diligence-related fees, costs, expenses and liabilities, with respect to unconsummated investments)); (iv) expenses of the Fund’s securities lending (if any), including any securities lending agent fees, as governed by a separate securities lending agreement; (v) costs, including interest expenses, of borrowing money or engaging in other types of leverage financing including, without limitation, through the use by the Fund of reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls/buybacks, bank borrowings, credit facilities and tender option bonds; (vi) costs, including dividend and/or interest expenses and other costs (including, without limitation, offering and related legal costs, fees to brokers, fees to auction agents, fees to transfer agents, fees to ratings agencies and fees to auditors associated with satisfying ratings agency requirements for preferred shares or other securities issued by the Fund and other related requirements in the Fund’s organizational documents) associated with the Fund’s issuance, offering, redemption and maintenance of preferred shares, commercial paper or other instruments (such as the use of reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls/buybacks, bank borrowings, credit facilities and tender option bonds) for the purpose of incurring leverage; (vii) fees and expenses of any underlying funds or other pooled vehicles in which the Fund invests; (viii) dividend and interest expenses on short positions taken by the Fund; (ix) fees and expenses, including travel expenses, and fees and expenses of legal counsel retained for their benefit, of Trustees who are not officers, employees, partners, shareholders or members of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (x) extraordinary expenses, including extraordinary legal expenses, as may arise, including, without limitation, expenses incurred in connection with litigation, proceedings, other claims, and the legal obligations of the Fund to indemnify its Trustees, officers, employees, shareholders, distributors, and agents with respect thereto; (xi) fees and expenses, including legal, printing and mailing, solicitation and other fees and expenses associated with and incident to shareholder meetings and proxy solicitations involving contested elections of Trustees, shareholder proposals or other non-routine matters that are not initiated or proposed by Fund management; (xii) organizational and offering expenses of the Funds, including registration (including share registration fees), legal, marketing, printing, accounting and other expenses, associated with organizing the Fund in its state of jurisdiction and in connection with the initial registration of the Fund under the Act and the initial registration of its shares under the Securities Act of 1933 (i.e., through the effectiveness of the Fund’s initial registration statement on Form N-2) and fees and expenses associated with seeking, applying for and obtaining formal exemptive, no-action and/or other relief from the SEC in connection with the issuance of multiple share classes; (xiii) except as otherwise specified herein as an expense of PIMCO, any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, including without limitation, sub-transfer agency expenses and distribution and/or services fees paid pursuant to a Rule 12b-1 or similar plan adopted by the Board for a particular share class; and (xiv) expenses of the Fund which are capitalized in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Without limiting the generality or scope of the foregoing, it is understood that the Funds may bear such expenses either directly or indirectly through contracts or arrangements with PIMCO or an affiliated or unaffiliated third-party.

June 30, 2024
Each of the Trustees of the Board who is not an “interested person” under Section 2(a)(19) of the Act, (the “Independent Trustees”) also serves as a trustee of a number of other closed-end funds for which PIMCO serves as investment manager (the “PIMCO Closed-End Funds”), together with the Funds, PIMCO Flexible Emerging Markets Income Fund and PIMCO Flexible Credit Income Fund, each a closed end management investment company managed by PIMCO that is operated as an “interval fund” and PIMCO Managed Accounts Trust, an open-end management investment company with multiple series for which PIMCO serves as investment adviser and administrator.
The Funds pay no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Manager, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Funds from the Manager or its affiliates.
(d) Expense Limitation PIMCO has contractually agreed, through May 2, 2025, to waive a portion of the Funds’ management fee, or reimburse each Fund, to the extent that organizational expenses, pro rata share of expenses related to obtaining or maintaining a Legal Entity Identifier and pro rata Trustees’ fees exceed 0.10% of each Fund’s net assets (the “Expense Limit”). The expense limitation agreement will automatically renew for one-year terms unless PIMCO provides written notice to the Funds at least 30 days’ notice prior to the end of the then current term. Under an expense limitation agreement, in any month in which the investment management agreement is in effect, PIMCO is entitled to reimbursement by a Fund of any portion of the management fee reduced pursuant to the expense limitation agreement (the “Reimbursement Amount”) during the previous thirty-six months, provided that such amount paid to PIMCO will not (i) together with any recoupment of organizational expenses, pro rata share of expenses related to obtaining or maintaining a Legal Entity Identifier and pro rata trustee fees or management fees exceed the Expense Limit; (ii) exceed the total Reimbursement Amount; or (iii) include any amounts previously reimbursed to PIMCO. For the avoidance of doubt, any reimbursement of PIMCO’s management fee pursuant to the expense limitation agreement plus any recoupment of organizational expenses and pro rata Trustees’ fees will not exceed the lesser of (i) the expense limit in effect at the time of waiver or reimbursement and (ii) the expense limit in effect at the time of recoupment.
The total recoverable amounts to PIMCO as of June 30, 2024 (from any fee waiver agreements or expense limitation agreements combined), were as follows (amounts in thousands†):

10. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Manager is a related party. Fees payable to this party are disclosed in Note 9, Fees and Expenses, and the accrued related party fee amounts are disclosed on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Certain Funds are permitted to purchase or sell securities from or to certain related affiliated funds under specified conditions outlined in procedures adopted by the Board. The procedures have been designed to ensure that any purchase or sale of securities by the Funds from or to another fund or portfolio that are, or could be, considered an affiliate, or an affiliate of an affiliate, by virtue of having a common investment adviser (or affiliated investment advisers), common Trustees and/or common officers complies with applicable SEC rules and interpretations under the Act. Further, as defined under the procedures, each transaction is effected at the current market price. Purchases and sales of securities pursuant to applicable SEC rules and interpretations under the Act for the period ended June 30, 2024, were as follows (amounts in thousands†):
The Funds have received exemptive relief from the SEC that, to the extent the Funds rely on such relief, permits it to (among other things) co-invest with certain other persons, including certain affiliates of the Advisor and certain public or private funds managed by the Advisor and its affiliates, subject to certain terms and conditions. The exemptive relief from the SEC with respect to co-investments imposes extensive conditions on any co-investments made in reliance on such relief.

11. GUARANTEES AND INDEMNIFICATIONS
Under each Fund’s organizational documents, each Trustee and officer is indemnified, to the extent permitted by the Act, against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts.
12. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time a Fund has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by a Fund is known as “portfolio turnover.” Each Fund may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective(s), particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover may involve correspondingly greater transaction costs, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities, which are borne by the Fund. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates when distributed to shareholders). The transaction costs associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect a Fund’s performance. The portfolio turnover rates are reported in the Financial Highlights.

| (1) | On May 9, 2022, Series 2050-A RVMTP Shares, originally issued on April 20, 2020, were exchanged for shares of Series 2049-A RVMTP Shares on a one-for-one basis. The remarketable period for the consolidated Series 2049-A RVMTP Shares was extended to May 2025. |
| (2) | On October 1, 2020, PMFLX originally issued 750 Series 2050-B RVMTP Shares. On November 1, 2022, PMFLX’s Bylaws were amended and restated to modify provisions related to the RVMTP Shares (the “Restatement”) and concurrent with the Restatement, PMFLX issued an additional 250 2050-B RVMTP Shares and amended the terms of the originally issued Series 2050-B RVMTP Shares. |
| (3) | On June 17, 2019, PMFLX issued Variable Rate Muni Fund Term Preferred Shares, Series 2022 (the “VMTP Shares”), which were redesignated (such redesignation, the Redesignation”), effective December 6, 2021, as RVMTP Shares, Series 2051-A. Concurrent with the Redesignation, on December 6, 2021, PMFLX issued an additional amount of Series 2051-A RVMTP Shares. On June 5, 2024, PMFLX, with the consent of the holder of all of the Series 2051-A RVMTP Shares, amended the organizational documents of the Series 2051-A RVMTP Shares to extend the Early Term Redemption Date and increase the Applicable Spread, among other changes. |
| (4) | The RVMTP Shares are subject to a mandatory term redemption date subject to each Fund’s right to extend the term with the consent of the holders of each series of its RVMTP Shares. There is no assurance that the term of the RVMTP Shares will be extended. |
PIMCO California Flexible Municipal Income Fund (”CAFLX”) issued and has outstanding the following series of Remarketable Variable Rate MuniFund Term Preferred Shares (the “CAFLX RVMTP Shares,” and together with the PMFLX RVMTP Shares, the “RVMTP Shares”) as of June 30, 2024:

| (1) | The RVMTP Shares are subject to a mandatory term redemption date subject to the Fund’s right to extend the term with the consent of the holders of each series of RVMTP Shares. There is no assurance that the term of the RVMTP Shares will be extended. |
In the Funds’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities, the Preferred Shares’ aggregate liquidation preference is shown as a liability since they are considered debt of the issuer. Costs directly related to
| SEMIANNUAL REPORT | JUNE 30, 2024 | 85 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
the Redesignation and issuance of each series of RVMTP Shares are considered debt issuance costs and are being amortized into interest expense over the life of each series of RVMTP Shares. The liquidation value of the Preferred Shares in each Fund’s Statements of Assets and Liabilities is shown as a liability and represents their liquidation preference, which approximates fair value of the shares and is considered level 2 under the fair value hierarchy, less any unamortized debt issuance costs. The RVMTP Shares can be redeemed in whole or in part at a redemption price per share equal to (i) the liquidation preference of the RVMTP Shares, plus (ii) an amount equal to all unpaid dividends and other distributions accumulated from and including the date of issuance to (but excluding) the date of redemption (whether or not earned or declared by the applicable Fund, but without interest thereon) plus (iii) any applicable optional redemption premium. No Preferred Shares were redeemed during the period ended June 30, 2024.
Each Fund, at its option, may designate special terms applicable to all of the outstanding RVMTP Shares in a series for a certain period (a “Special Terms Period”) pursuant to a notice of special terms. Such special terms may differ from those provided in the current governing documents of the RVMTP Shares and may include, without limitation, changes to the dividend rate, dividend payment dates, redemption provisions (including, without limitation, the term redemption date or the Early Term Redemption Date (as defined below)), required effective leverage ratio and gross-up payment provisions; provided that such special terms do not affect the parity ranking of the RVMTP Shares to any other class or series of Preferred Shares then outstanding with respect to dividends or distribution of assets upon dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of the affairs of the Fund. No Special Terms Period with respect to a series of RVMTP Shares will become effective unless certain conditions are satisfied, including that all of the RVMTP Shares in such series are remarketed (except with respect to any RVMTP Shares whose holders have elected to retain their RVMTP Shares for the Special Terms Period). A Special Terms Period will not become effective before the 12-month anniversary (for Series 2049-A, Series 2051-A, Series 2052-A, Series 2052-B and Series 2054) or 24-month anniversary (for Series 2050-B) of the date of original issue of the applicable series of RVMTP Shares. The Funds did not declare a Special Terms Period during the period ended June 30, 2024.
In addition, with respect to each series of RVMTP Shares, a “Mandatory Tender Event” will occur on each date that is (i) 20 business days before (A) with respect to the Series 2049-A RVMTP Shares, Series 2052-A RVMTP Shares and Series 2052-B RVMTP Shares, each three-year anniversary of the date of original issue of such series of RVMTP Shares; (B) with respect to the Series 2050-B RVMTP Shares and the Series 2054 RVMTP Shares, each 42-month anniversary of the date of original issue of such series of RVMTP Shares; or (C) with respect to the Series 2051-A RVMTP Shares, each five-year anniversary of December 6, 2024 (each an “Early Term Redemption,” and the date on which such occurs, an “Early Term Redemption Date”), (ii) the date a Fund delivers a notice designating a Special Terms Period, and (iii) 20 business days before the end of a Special Terms Period (provided that no subsequent Special Terms Period is designated). Upon the occurrence of a Mandatory Tender Event, all RVMTP Shares in the series will be subject to mandatory tender (subject to the holders’ election to retain their RVMTP Shares) and the applicable Fund will issue or cause to be issued a notice of mandatory tender to the holders of the RVMTP Shares for remarketing on the corresponding Mandatory Tender Date. If any RVMTP Shares subject to a Mandatory Tender Event upon an Early Term Redemption Date or upon the end of a Special Terms Period have not been either retained by the holders or remarketed by the Mandatory Tender Date, the Fund will redeem such RVMTP Shares on the Early Term Redemption Date or the end of the Special Terms Period, as applicable.

With respect to the Mandatory Tender Events described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, the corresponding “Mandatory Tender Date” means, respectively: (i) the date that is the corresponding Early Term Redemption Date of such series of RVMTP Shares, or the date that is 180 calendar days following the Early Term Redemption Date (for Series 2052-A), (ii) the date on which the related Special Terms Period becomes effective, and (iii) the last day of the related Special Terms Period (subject, in each case, to the holders’ election to retain their RVMTP Shares). No Mandatory Tender Event occurred during the period ended June 30, 2024.
Dividends paid with respect to the Preferred Shares, which are payable monthly, are treated as interest expense, are accrued daily and are reflected as a component of interest expense in the Statements of Operations. For the period ended June 30, 2024, the amount of the RVMTP Shares outstanding, interest expense related to the dividends paid to Preferred Shares and the daily weighted average interest rate (calculated from issuance date), including issuance costs, can be found in the table below:

Each Fund is subject to certain limitations and restrictions while the RVMTP Shares are outstanding. Failure to comply with these limitations and restrictions could preclude a Fund from declaring or paying any dividends or distributions to common shareholders or repurchasing common shares and/or could trigger the mandatory redemption of the Preferred Shares at their liquidation preference plus
| SEMIANNUAL REPORT | JUNE 30, 2024 | 87 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
any accumulated, unpaid dividends and other distributions. Any resulting suspension of payment of common share dividends may result in a tax penalty for the applicable Fund and, in certain circumstances, the loss of treatment as a regulated investment company. Any such mandatory redemption will be conducted on a pro rata basis among each series of the Preferred Shares and any other preferred shares of the applicable Fund outstanding based upon the proportion that the aggregate liquidation preference of any series bears to the aggregate liquidation preference of all outstanding series of such Fund’s preferred shares. Under the terms of each purchase agreement between each Fund and each investor in the Preferred Shares, each Fund is subject to various investment requirements while the Preferred Shares are outstanding. These requirements may be more restrictive than those to which the Fund is otherwise subject in accordance with its investment objective(s) and policies. In addition, each Fund is subject to certain restrictions on its investments imposed by guidelines of the rating agencies that rate the Preferred Shares, which guidelines may be changed by the applicable rating agency, in its sole discretion, from time to time. These guidelines may impose asset coverage or portfolio composition requirements that are more stringent than those imposed on each Fund by the Act.
Ratings agencies may change their methodologies for evaluating and providing ratings for shares of closed-end funds at any time and in their sole discretion, which may affect the rating (if any) of a Fund’s shares.
Each Fund is required to maintain certain asset coverage with respect to all outstanding senior securities of the Fund which are stocks for purposes of the Act, including the Preferred Shares, as set forth in such Fund’s governing documents and the Act. One such requirement under the Act is that the Fund is not permitted to declare or pay common share dividends unless immediately thereafter the Fund has a minimum asset coverage ratio of 200% with respect to all outstanding senior securities of the Fund which are stocks for purposes of the Act after deducting the amount of such common share dividends. In addition, under the terms of the Series 2050-B RVMTP Shares (with respect to PMFLX) and the Series 2054 RVMTP Shares (with respect to CAFLX), each Fund is not permitted to declare or pay common share dividends unless immediately thereafter the Fund has a minimum asset coverage ratio of 225% with respect to all outstanding senior securities of the Fund which are stocks for purposes of the Act after deducting the amount of such common share dividends. The asset coverage ratio per share for each Fund is reported in the Financial Highlights and is disclosed as the product of the asset coverage ratio as of period end and the current liquidation preference.
With respect to the payment of dividends and as to the distribution of assets of each Fund, the Preferred Shares are senior in priority to the Funds’ outstanding common shares. Holders of preferred shares of each Fund, who are entitled to one vote per share, including holders of Preferred Shares, generally vote together as one class with the common shareholders of each Fund, but preferred shareholders vote separately as a class to elect two Trustees of each Fund, as required by the Act, and on certain matters adversely affecting the rights of preferred shareholders. Under the Act, preferred shareholders, including holders of the Preferred Shares, are also entitled to elect a majority of the trustees at any time when dividends on the preferred shares are unpaid for two full years.
The dividend rates paid on the Preferred Shares are determined over the course of a seven-day period, which generally commences each Thursday and ends the following Wednesday (the “Rate

Period”). The dividends per share for RVMTP Shares for a given Rate Period are dependent on the RVMTP Share dividend rate for that Rate Period (the “RVMTP Share Dividend Rate”). The RVMTP Share Dividend Rate for Series 2049-A, Series 2051-A, and Series 2052-B is equal to the greater of (i) the sum of the Index Rate(1) plus the Applicable Spread(2) for the Rate Period plus the “Failed Remarketing Spread”(3), and (ii) the sum of (a) the product of the Index Rate multiplied by the Applicable Multiplier(4) for such Rate Period plus (b) 1.00% plus (c) the Failed Remarketing Spread. The RVMTP Share Dividend Rate for Series 2050-B and Series 2054 is equal to (i) the sum of the Index Rate plus (ii) the Applicable Spread (including the “Spread Adjustment,” (5) if applicable) plus (iii) the Failed Remarketing Spread. The RVMTP Share Dividend Rate for Series 2052-A is equal to the greater of (i) the sum of the Index Rate plus an “Applicable Spread” for the Rate Period plus the Failed Remarketing Spread, if applicable, and (ii) the sum of (a) the product of the Index Rate multiplied by the “Applicable Multiplier” for such Rate Period plus (b) 0.92% plus (c) the Failed Remarketing Spread, if applicable. The dividend per RVMTP Share for the Rate Period is then determined as described in the table below. (6)

| (1) | The Index Rate is determined by reference to a weekly, high-grade index comprised of seven-day, tax-exempt variable rate demand notes, generally the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association Municipal Swap Index. |
| (2) | For each series of RVMTP Shares, the Applicable Spread for a Rate Period is a percentage per annum that is based on the long term rating most recently assigned by the applicable ratings agency to such series of RVMTP Shares, and, for Series 2050-B, it is also based on “Spread Adjustment.” |
| (3) | With respect to Series 2049-A, Series 2051-A, Series 2052-B, Series 2050-B and Series 2054, the Failed Remarketing Spread means (i) for so long as two or more Failed Remarketings have not occurred, 0%, and (ii) following the second occurrence of a Failed Remarketing, (A) 0.15% (for Series 2049-A, Series 2051-A and Series 2052-B) or (B) 0.25% (for Series 2050-B and Series 2054), in each case multiplied by the number of Failed Remarketings that have occurred after the first Failed Remarketing. With respect to Series 2052-A, a Failed Remarketing Spread means (a) in the case of a Failed Special Terms Period Remarketing (as defined below): (i) for so long as two or more Failed Special Terms Period Remarketings have not occurred, 0.05%, and (ii) following the second occurrence of a Failed Special Terms Period Remarketing, 0.10% multiplied by the number of Failed Special Terms Period Remarketings that have occurred after the first Failed Special Terms Period Remarketing, and (b) in the case of a Failed Early Term Redemption Date Remarketing (as defined below): (i) 0.75% for the first 59 days following the applicable Early Term Redemption Date, (ii) 1.00% for the 60th to the 89th day following such Early Term Redemption Date, (iii) 1.25% for the 90th to the 119th day following such Early Term Redemption Date, (iv) 1.50% for the 120th to the 149th day following such Early Term Redemption Date, and (v) 1.75% for the 150th day following such Early Term Redemption Date to the date of the associated mandatory redemption of the Series 2052-A RVMTP Shares. With respect to Series 2049-A, Series 2051-A, Series 2052-B, Series 2050-B and Series 2054, a “Failed Remarketing,” with respect to a series of RVMTP Shares, will occur if any RVMTP Shares in such series subject to a Mandatory Tender Event due to the applicable Fund designating a Special Terms Period have not been either retained by the holders or successfully remarketed by the Mandatory Tender Date (each as defined below). With respect to Series 2052-A, a “Failed Special Terms Period Remarketing” will occur if any RVMTP Shares subject to a Mandatory Tender Event due to PMFLX designating a Special Terms Period have not been either retained by the holders or successfully remarketed by the Mandatory Tender Date. In addition, with respect to Series 2052-A, a “Failed Early Term Redemption Date Remarketing” will occur if any RVMTP Shares subject to a Mandatory Tender Event have not been either retained by the holders or successfully remarketed by the Early Term Redemption Date. |
| (4) | For each series of RVMTP Shares other than Series 2050-B and Series 2054, the Applicable Multiplier for a Rate Period is a percentage that is based on the long term rating most recently assigned by the applicable ratings agency to such series of RVMTP Shares. |
| (5) | The “Spread Adjustment” means, (i) for the period from the date of original issuance of the RVMTP Shares to and including the date that is six months prior to the then current RVMTP Early Term Redemption Date (as defined above) (“Rate Period Termination Date”), 0%, and (ii) for the period after the Rate Period Termination Date, 2.00%. |

| (6) | For each series of RVMTP Shares, an increased RVMTP Share Dividend Rate could be triggered by the applicable Fund’s failure to comply with certain requirements relating to such series of RVMTP Shares, certain actions taken by the applicable ratings agency or certain determinations regarding the tax status of such series of RVMTP Shares made by a court or other applicable governmental authority. The RVMTP Share Dividend Rate will in no event exceed 15% per year. |

15. REPURCHASE OFFERING
Each Fund is an “interval fund” and, in order to provide liquidity to shareholders, each Fund, subject to applicable law, conducts quarterly repurchase offers of the Fund’s outstanding Common Shares at NAV, subject to approval of the Board. In all cases such repurchases will be between 5% and 25%, or such other amount as may be permitted under applicable rules and regulations or no-action, exemptive or other relief of its outstanding Common Shares at NAV, pursuant to Rule 23c-3 under the Act. Each Fund currently expects to conduct quarterly repurchase offers for 10% of their outstanding Common Shares under ordinary circumstances. Each Fund believes that these repurchase offers are generally beneficial to the Funds’ shareholders, and repurchases generally will be funded from available cash or sales of portfolio securities. However, repurchase offers and the need to fund repurchase obligations may affect the ability of each Fund to be fully invested or force the Funds to maintain a higher percentage of their assets in liquid investments, which may harm each Funds’ investment performance. Moreover, diminution in the size of each Fund through repurchases may result in untimely sales of portfolio securities (with associated imputed transaction costs, which may be significant), may limit the ability of each Fund to participate in new investment opportunities or to achieve its investment objective and will tend to increase the Funds’ expense ratio per Common Share for remaining shareholders. Each Fund may accumulate cash by holding back (i.e., not reinvesting) payments received in connection with the Funds’ investments. Each Fund believes that payments received in connection with the Funds’ investments will generate sufficient cash to meet the maximum potential amount of the Funds’ repurchase obligations. If at any time cash and other liquid assets held by the Funds are not sufficient to meet the Funds’ repurchase obligations, each Fund intends, if necessary, to sell investments. If, as expected, each Fund employs investment leverage, repurchases of Common Shares would compound the adverse effects of leverage in a declining market. In addition, if a Fund borrows to finance repurchases, interest on that borrowing will negatively affect common shareholders who do not tender their Common Shares by increasing the Funds’ expenses and reducing any net investment income.
If a repurchase offer is oversubscribed, a Fund may determine to increase the amount repurchased by up to 2% of its outstanding shares as of the date of the Repurchase Request Deadline (as defined in each Fund’s prospectus). In the event that the Funds determine not to repurchase more than the repurchase offer amount, or if shareholders tender more than the repurchase offer amount plus 2% of the Funds’ outstanding shares as of the date of the Repurchase Request Deadline, the Funds will
| SEMIANNUAL REPORT | JUNE 30, 2024 | 91 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
repurchase the Common Shares tendered on a pro rata basis, and shareholders will have to wait until the next repurchase offer to make another repurchase request. As a result, shareholders may be unable to liquidate all or a given percentage of their investment in the Funds during a particular repurchase offer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Fund may accept all Common Shares tendered for repurchase by shareholders who own less than one hundred Common Shares and who tender all of their Common Shares, before prorating Common Shares tendered by other shareholders; provided that, if a shareholder holds shares through a financial intermediary, such intermediary may not be willing or able to arrange for this treatment on such shareholder’s behalf. Some shareholders, in anticipation of proration, may tender more Common Shares than they wish to have repurchased in a particular quarter, thereby increasing the likelihood that proration will occur. A shareholder may be subject to market and other risks, and the NAV of Common Shares tendered in a repurchase offer may decline between the Repurchase Request Deadline and the date on which the NAV for tendered Common Shares is determined. In addition, the repurchase of Common Shares by the Funds may be a taxable event to shareholders.
During the period ended June 30, 2024, each Fund engaged in repurchase offers as follows:

16. BASIS FOR CONSOLIDATION
PIMCO Flexible Municipal Income Fund’s subsidiary was formed as a wholly owned subsidiary acting as an investment vehicle for the Fund in order to effect certain investments for the Fund consistent with the Fund’s investment objectives and policies in effect from time to time. The Fund’s investment portfolio has been consolidated and includes the portfolio holdings of the Fund and its subsidiary. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Fund and its subsidiary. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated. This structure was

established so that certain investments could be held by a separate legal entity from the Fund. See the table below for details regarding the structure, incorporation and relationship of each subsidiary as of period end.

17. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
The Funds are not named as defendants in any material litigation or arbitration proceedings and are not aware of any material litigation or claim pending or threatened against them.
The foregoing speaks only as of the date of this report.
18. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS
Each Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and distribute all of its income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made. Due to the timing of when distributions are made by a Fund, the Fund may be subject to an excise tax of 4% of the amount by which 98% of the Fund’s annual taxable income and 98.2%of net realized gains exceed the distributions from such taxable income and realized gains for the calendar year.
A Fund may be subject to local withholding taxes, including those imposed on realized capital gains. Any applicable foreign capital gains tax is accrued daily based upon net unrealized gains, and may be payable following the sale of any applicable investments.
In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Manager has reviewed the Funds’ tax positions for all open tax years. As of June 30, 2024, the Funds have recorded no liability for net unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions they have taken or expect to take in future tax returns.
The Funds file U.S. federal, state and local tax returns as required. The Funds’ tax returns are subject to examination by relevant tax authorities until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, which is generally three years after the filing of the tax return but which can be extended to six years in certain circumstances. Tax returns for open years have incorporated no uncertain tax positions that require a provision for income taxes.
Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, a fund is permitted to carry forward any new capital losses for an unlimited period. Additionally, such capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term under previous law.
As of their last fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, the Funds had the following post-effective capital losses with no expiration (amounts in thousands†):

Approval of Investment Management Agreements
(Unaudited)
The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), requires that the Board of Trustees (the “Board” or the “Trustees”), including a majority of the Trustees who are not “interested persons,” as that term is defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), of each of PIMCO Flexible Municipal Income Fund (“PMFLX”) and PIMCO California Flexible Municipal Income Fund (“CAFLX”) (each, a “Fund” and, collectively, the “Funds”), voting separately, annually approve the continuation of the Investment Management Agreement between each Fund and Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) (each, an “Investment Management Agreement”). At an in-person meeting held on June 14, 2024 (the “Approval Meeting”), the Board, including the Independent Trustees, considered and unanimously approved the continuation of each Investment Management Agreement for an additional one-year period commencing on August 1, 2024. In addition, the Board considered and unanimously approved the continuation of the investment management agreements between PIMCO and each wholly-owned subsidiary of PMFLX and CAFLX (each, a “Subsidiary” and, together, the “Subsidiaries”) (the “Subsidiary Agreements” and together with each Investment Management Agreement, the “Agreements”), for the same additional one-year period.
In addition to the Approval Meeting, the Contracts Committee and the Performance Committee of the Board held a joint meeting on May 29, 2024 to discuss materials provided by PIMCO in connection with the Trustees’ review of the Agreements. The annual contract review process also involved multiple discussions and meetings with members of the Contracts Committee and the full Contracts Committee (the Approval Meeting, together with such discussions and meetings, the “Contract Renewal Meetings”). Throughout the process, the Independent Trustees received legal advice from independent legal counsel that is experienced in 1940 Act matters and independent of PIMCO (“Independent Counsel”), and with whom they met separately from PIMCO during the Contract Renewal Meetings. Representatives from PIMCO attended portions of the Contract Renewal Meetings and responded to questions from the Independent Trustees. The Contracts Committee also received and reviewed a memorandum from Independent Counsel regarding the Trustees’ responsibilities in considering each Agreement and the fees paid thereunder.
In connection with their deliberations regarding the proposed continuation of the Agreements, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, considered such information and factors as they believed, in light of the legal advice furnished to them and their own business judgment, to reasonably be necessary to evaluate the terms of the Agreements. The Trustees also considered the nature, quality and extent of the various investment management, administrative and other services performed by PIMCO under the Agreements.
In evaluating each Agreement, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, reviewed extensive materials provided by PIMCO in response to questions, inclusive of follow-up inquiries, submitted by the Independent Trustees and Independent Counsel. The Board also met with senior representatives of PIMCO regarding its personnel, operations, and estimated profitability as they relate to each Fund. The Trustees also considered the broad range of information relevant to the annual contract review that is provided to the Board (including its various standing committees) at meetings throughout the year, including reports on investment performance based on net asset value (“NAV”) and distribution yield of each Fund’s Institutional Class Shares (both absolute and compared against an appropriate peer group); use of leverage; risks; and other portfolio information, including the use of derivatives, as well as periodic reports on, among other matters, pricing and valuation, quality and cost of
| SEMIANNUAL REPORT | JUNE 30, 2024 | 99 |
Approval of Investment Management Agreements (Cont.)
portfolio trade execution, compliance, and shareholder and other services provided by PIMCO and its affiliates. To assist with their review, the Trustees reviewed summaries prepared by PIMCO that analyzed each Fund based on a number of factors, including fees/ expenses, performance, distribution yield (which may be comprised of ordinary income, net capital gains, and/or a return of capital), and risk-based factors, as of December 31, 2023. They also considered, among other information, performance based on NAV, investment objective and strategy, portfolio managers, assets under management, outstanding leverage, annual fund operating expenses, total expense ratio and management fee comparisons between each Fund and its Broadridge Expense Group (as defined below), and estimated profitability to PIMCO from its relationship with each Fund. In considering the Broadridge Performance Universe and Broadridge Expense Group (both as defined below), the Trustees requested that PIMCO comment on whether the peer funds selected for each Fund by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”) provided an appropriate comparison, and if not, whether PIMCO believes another peer group would provide a more appropriate comparison.
With respect to the Subsidiary Agreements, the Trustees considered that PMFLX and CAFLX each utilize their Subsidiaries to execute their investment strategies, and that PIMCO provides investment advisory and administrative services to the Subsidiaries pursuant to the Subsidiary Agreements in the same manner as it does for PMFLX and CAFLX under their Investment Management Agreements. The Trustees also considered that, with respect to each Subsidiary, PIMCO does not collect or retain a separate advisory or other fee from the Subsidiary, and that PIMCO’s profitability with respect to PMFLX and CAFLX is not impacted as a result of the Subsidiary Agreements. The Trustees determined, therefore, that it was appropriate to consider the approval of the Subsidiary Agreements collectively with their consideration of the Investment Management Agreements.
The Trustees’ conclusions as to the continuation of each Agreement were based on a comprehensive consideration of all information provided to the Trustees during the Contract Renewal Meetings and throughout the year and were not the result of any single factor. Some of the factors that figured particularly in the Trustees’ deliberations are described below, although individual Trustees may have evaluated the information presented differently from one another, attributing different weights to various factors. The Trustees evaluated information available to them on a Fund-by-Fund basis, and their determinations were made separately in respect of each Fund.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
As part of their review, the Trustees received and considered descriptions of various functions performed by PIMCO for the Funds, such as portfolio management, compliance monitoring, portfolio trading practices, and oversight of third-party service providers. They also considered information regarding the overall organization and business functions of PIMCO, including, without limitation, information regarding senior management, portfolio managers and other personnel providing investment management, administrative, and/or other services, and general corporate ownership and business operations unrelated to the Funds. The Trustees examined PIMCO’s abilities to provide high-quality investment management and other services to the Funds, noting PIMCO’s experience in managing interval funds, such as the Funds. Among other information, the Trustees considered the investment philosophy and research and decision-making processes of PIMCO; the experience of key advisory personnel of PIMCO responsible for portfolio management of the Funds; information regarding the Funds’ use of leverage; the ability of PIMCO to attract and retain capable personnel;
| 100 | PIMCO MUNICIPAL INTERVAL FUNDS |
(Unaudited)
the background and capabilities of the senior management and staff of PIMCO; the general process or philosophy for determining employee compensation; and the operational infrastructure, including technology and systems and cybersecurity measures, of PIMCO.
In addition, the Trustees noted the extensive range of services that PIMCO provides to the Funds beyond investment management services. In this regard, the Trustees reviewed the extent and quality of PIMCO’s services with respect to regulatory compliance and its ability to comply with the investment policies of the Funds; the compliance programs and risk controls of PIMCO (including the implementation of new policies and programs); the specific contractual obligations of PIMCO pursuant to the Agreements; the nature, extent, and quality of the supervisory and administrative services PIMCO is responsible for providing to the Funds; PIMCO’s risk management function; the time and resources PIMCO expends monitoring the leverage employed by the Funds, including the covenants and restrictions imposed by certain forms of leverage such as the Funds’ preferred shares, if any; and conditions that might affect PIMCO’s ability to provide high-quality services to the Funds in the future under the Agreements, including, but not limited to, PIMCO’s financial condition and operational stability. The Trustees also took into account the entrepreneurial, business and other risks that PIMCO has undertaken as investment manager and sponsor of the Funds. Specifically, the Trustees considered that PIMCO’s responsibilities include continual management of investment, operational, enterprise, legal, regulatory, and compliance risks as they relate to the Funds. The Trustees also noted PIMCO’s activities under its contractual obligation to coordinate, oversee and supervise the Funds’ various outside service providers, including its negotiation of certain service providers’ fees and its due diligence and evaluation of service providers’ infrastructure, cybersecurity programs, compliance programs, and business continuity programs, among other matters. The Trustees also considered PIMCO’s ongoing development of its own infrastructure and information technology, including its proprietary software and applications, to support the Funds through, among other things, cybersecurity, business continuity planning, and risk management. The Trustees considered PIMCO’s recent strategic managed service arrangement (“Managed Services”) with a third-party consultant for various services previously provided to the Funds by PIMCO personnel and requested information from PIMCO regarding PIMCO’s retained responsibility and oversight over the Managed Services.
After their review and deliberations, the Trustees concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the overall services provided by PIMCO under each Agreement were appropriate.
Fee and Expense Information
In assessing the reasonableness of each Fund’s fees and expenses under its Investment Management Agreement, the Trustees requested and considered, among other information, the Fund’s management fee and its total expenses as a percentage of average net assets attributable to common shares and as a percentage of average total managed assets (including assets attributable both to common shares and specified leverage outstanding), in comparison to the management fees and other expenses of a group of industry peer funds identified by Broadridge as pursuing investment strategies with classifications/objectives similar to the Fund (for each Fund, its “Broadridge Expense Group”) as well as of a broader universe of peer funds identified by Broadridge (for each Fund, its “Broadridge Expense Universe”). In each case, the total expense ratio information was provided both inclusive and exclusive of interest and borrowing expenses. The Fund-specific fee and expense results discussed below were prepared and provided by Broadridge and were not independently verified by
| SEMIANNUAL REPORT | JUNE 30, 2024 | 101 |
Approval of Investment Management Agreements (Cont.)
the Trustees. The Trustees considered that the total expense ratio comparisons reflect the effect of fee and expense waivers/reimbursements. The Trustees noted that only leveraged closed-end funds were considered for inclusion in the Broadridge Expense Groups and Broadridge Expense Universes.
The Trustees considered that PIMCO has entered into an expense limitation agreement with each Fund pursuant to which PIMCO has contractually agreed, through May 2, 2025, to waive its management fee, or reimburse each Fund, to the extent that organizational expenses, expenses related to obtaining or maintaining a legal entity identifier and pro rata Trustees’ fees exceed 0.10% of each Fund’s average daily net assets. The Trustees considered that PIMCO is entitled to reimbursement under each Fund’s expense limitation agreement under certain conditions.
The Trustees considered information regarding the investment performance and fees for other funds and accounts managed by PIMCO, if any, including funds and accounts with comparable investment programs and/or principal investment strategies to those of the Funds, as well as certain other funds requested by the Trustees with broadly similar strategies and/or investment types. The Trustees considered information provided by PIMCO indicating that, in comparison to certain other products managed by PIMCO, including any open-end funds, exchange-traded funds, and listed closed-end funds with broadly similar strategies and/or investment types, there are additional portfolio management challenges in managing interval funds such as the Funds. For example, the Trustees considered that, as an interval fund, each Fund allows for (i) daily subscriptions, which allow for assets to increase over time, (ii) quarterly repurchases, which allow for assets to decrease periodically, (iii) changes in leverage, all of which results in more burdensome portfolio management, tax, accounting, regulatory and administrative processes than listed closed-end funds and open-end funds and (iv) investing in non-traditional and less liquid holdings as compared to open-end funds. In addition, the Independent Trustees considered information provided by PIMCO as to the generally broader and more extensive services provided to the Funds in comparison to those provided to private funds or institutional or separate accounts; the higher demands placed on PIMCO to provide considerable shareholder services due to the volume of investors; the greater entrepreneurial, enterprise, and reputational risk in managing registered interval funds; and the expenses, and impact on PIMCO, associated with the more extensive regulatory and compliance requirements to which the Funds are subject in comparison to private funds or institutional or separate accounts. The Trustees were advised by PIMCO that, in light of these additional challenges and additional services, different pricing structures between interval funds and other products managed by PIMCO are to be expected, and that comparisons of pricing structures across these products may not always be apt comparisons, even where other products have comparable investment objectives and strategies to those of the Funds.
The Trustees also took into account that each Fund pays management fees on assets attributable to types of leverage that it uses (including, as applicable, assets attributable to any reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls/buybacks, tender option bonds and preferred shares outstanding, if any), which increases the amount of management fees payable by the Fund under its Investment Management Agreement (because each Fund’s fees are calculated based on total managed assets (including assets attributable to any reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls/buybacks, tender option bonds, borrowings and preferred shares that may be outstanding, if any) minus accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls/buybacks, tender option bonds and borrowings)). In this regard, the Trustees took into account that PIMCO has
| 102 | PIMCO MUNICIPAL INTERVAL FUNDS |
(Unaudited)
a financial incentive for the Funds to use or continue to use leverage on which management fees are charged, which may create a conflict of interest between PIMCO, on one hand, and the Funds’ common shareholders, on the other. Therefore, the Trustees noted that the total fees paid by each Fund to PIMCO under the Fund’s unified fee arrangement would therefore vary more with increases and decreases in leverage than under a non-unified fee arrangement, all other things being equal. The Trustees considered information provided by PIMCO and related presentations as to why each Fund’s use of leverage continues to be appropriate and in the best interests of the respective Fund under current market conditions. The Trustees noted that each quarter they receive information from PIMCO regarding the Funds’ use of leverage. The Trustees also considered PIMCO’s representation that it will use leverage for the Funds solely as it determines to be in the best interests of the Funds from an investment perspective and without regard to the level of compensation PIMCO receives.
The Trustees noted that the contractual and actual management fee rates for PMFLX under its unified fee arrangement were above the median contractual and actual management fees of the other funds in its Broadridge Expense Group, calculated both on average net assets and on average total managed assets. For CAFLX, the contractual management fee rate for the Fund under its unified fee arrangement was above the median contractual management fees of the other funds in its Broadridge Expense Group calculated both on average net assets and on average total managed assets, while the actual management fee rate for the Fund under its unified fee arrangement was above the median actual management fees of the other funds in its Broadridge Expense Group calculated on average total managed assets and below the median actual management fees of the other funds in its Broadridge Expense Group calculated on average net assets. The Trustees took into account that each Fund’s unified fee arrangement covers substantially all of the Funds’ operating fees and expenses (“Operating Expenses”) and therefore, all other things being equal, would tend to be higher than the contractual management fee rates of other funds in the Broadridge Expense Group, which generally do not have a unified fee structure and instead incur Operating Expenses directly and in addition to the management fee. The Trustees also considered that PIMCO has entered into an expense limitation agreement for each Fund. The Trustees determined that a comparison of each Fund’s total expense ratio with the total expense ratios of its Broadridge Expense Group would generally provide more meaningful comparisons than comparing contractual and actual management fee rates in isolation.
In this regard, the Trustees noted PIMCO’s view that the unified fee arrangements have benefited and will continue to benefit common shareholders because they provide an expense structure (including Operating Expenses) that is essentially fixed for the duration of the contractual period as a percentage of total managed assets, including any assets attributable to any outstanding preferred shares, or other forms of leverage, making it more predictable under ordinary circumstances in comparison to other fee and expense structures, under which the Funds’ Operating Expenses (including certain third-party fees and expenses) could vary significantly over time. The Trustees also considered that the unified fee arrangements generally insulate the Funds and common shareholders from increases in applicable third-party and certain other expenses because PIMCO, rather than the Funds, would bear the risk of such increases (though the Trustees also noted that PIMCO would benefit from any reductions in such expenses).

Performance Information
Fund-specific comparative performance results for the Funds reviewed by the Trustees are discussed below. With respect to investment performance, the Trustees considered information regarding each Fund’s performance based on NAV, net of the Fund’s fees and expenses, both on an absolute basis and relative to the performance of its Broadridge Performance Universe (as defined below). The Trustees requested information provided by Broadridge regarding the investment performance of a broad universe of funds within the same investment classification/category that Broadridge determined are comparable to those of each Fund (for each Fund, its “Broadridge Performance Universe”). The comparative performance information was prepared and provided by Broadridge and was not independently verified by the Trustees. The Trustees also considered information regarding the Funds’ comparative yields and risk-adjusted returns. The Trustees recognized that the performance data reflects a snapshot of a period as of a particular date and that selecting a different performance period could produce significantly different results. They further acknowledged that long-term performance could be impacted by even one period of significant outperformance or underperformance. The Trustees considered information from PIMCO regarding the risks undertaken by each Fund, including the use of leverage, and PIMCO’s management and oversight of the Fund’s risk profile.
In addition, the Trustees considered matters bearing on the Funds and their advisory arrangements at their meetings throughout the year, including a review of performance data at each regular meeting (by both the Board and its Performance Committee).
Profitability, Economies of Scale, and Fall-out Benefits
The Trustees considered estimated profitability analyses provided by PIMCO, which included, among other information, (i) PIMCO’s estimated pre- and post-distribution operating margin for each Fund, as well as PIMCO’s aggregate estimated pre- and post-distribution operating margin for all of the closed-end and interval funds advised by PIMCO, including the Funds (collectively, the “Estimated Margins”), in each case for the one-year period ended December 31, 2023; and (ii) where applicable, a year-over-year comparison of PIMCO’s Estimated Margins for the one-year periods ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Trustees also took into account explanations from PIMCO regarding how certain of PIMCO’s corporate and shared expenses were allocated among the Funds and other funds and accounts managed by PIMCO for purposes of developing profitability estimates. The Trustees also requested information from PIMCO regarding the impact of the Managed Services on PIMCO’s profitability with respect to the Funds. The Trustees also considered that PIMCO is entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits for the services that it provides to the Funds. Based on the profitability analyses provided by PIMCO, the Trustees determined, taking into account the various assumptions made, that such profitability did not appear to be excessive.
The Trustees also considered information regarding possible economies of scale in the operation of the Funds. The Trustees noted that the Funds do not currently have any breakpoints in their management fees. The Trustees noted PIMCO’s assertion that it may share the benefits of potential economies of scale, if any, with the Funds and their shareholders in a number of ways, including investing in portfolio and trade operations management, firm technology and cybersecurity measures, middle and back office support, legal and compliance, and fund administration logistics;

(Unaudited)
senior management supervision and governance of those services; and the enhancement of services provided to the Funds in return for fees paid. The Trustees also considered that the unified fee arrangements provide inherent economies of scale because a Fund maintains competitive fixed unified fees even if the particular Fund’s assets decline and/or operating costs increase. The Trustees further considered that, in contrast, breakpoints may be used as a proxy for charging higher fees on lower asset levels and that when a fund’s assets decline, breakpoints may reverse, which causes expense ratios to increase. The Trustees also considered that, unlike the Funds’ unified fee arrangements, funds with “pass through” administrative fee structures may experience increased expense ratios when fixed dollar fees are charged against declining fund assets. The Trustees also considered that the unified fee arrangements protect shareholders, during the contractual period, from a rise in operating costs that may result from, among other things, PIMCO’s investments in various business enhancements and infrastructure. The Trustees noted that PIMCO has made extensive investments in these areas.
Additionally, the Trustees considered so-called “fall-out benefits” to PIMCO, such as reputational value derived from serving as investment manager to the Funds and research, statistical and quotation services that PIMCO may receive from broker-dealers executing the Funds’ portfolio transactions on an agency basis.
Fund-by-Fund Analysis
With regard to the investment performance of each Fund’s Institutional Class Shares and the fees charged to each Fund, the Board considered the following information. With respect to performance quintile rankings for a Fund compared to its Broadridge Performance Universe, the first quintile represents the highest (best) performance and the fifth quintile represents the lowest performance. The Board considered each Fund’s performance and fees in light of the limitations inherent in the methodology for determining such comparative groups.
PMFLX
With respect to the Fund’s total return performance of its Institutional Class Shares (based on NAV) relative to its Broadridge Performance Universe, the Trustees noted that the Fund had second quintile performance for the one-year period and first quintile performance for the three-year period ended December 31, 2023.
The Trustees noted that the Fund’s total expense ratio (including interest and borrowing expenses) calculated on average total managed assets was above the median total expense ratio (including interest and borrowing expenses) of the funds in its Broadridge Expense Group but below the median total expense ratio (including interest and borrowing expenses) of the funds in its Broadridge Expense Universe. The Trustees noted that the Fund’s total expense ratio (including interest and borrowing expenses) calculated on average net assets was below the median total expense ratio (including interest and borrowing expenses) of the funds in its Broadridge Expense Group and Broadridge Expense Universe. The Trustees noted that the Fund’s total expense ratio (excluding interest and borrowing expenses) calculated on average total managed assets was above the median total expense ratio (excluding interest and borrowing expenses) of the funds in its Broadridge Expense Group and Broadridge Expense Universe. The Trustees noted that the Fund’s total expense ratio (excluding interest and borrowing expenses) calculated on average net assets was above the

median total expense ratio (excluding interest and borrowing expenses) of the funds in its Broadridge Expense Group but at the median total expense ratio (excluding interest and borrowing expenses) of the funds in its Broadridge Expense Universe.
CAFLX
With respect to the Fund’s total return performance of its Institutional Class Shares (based on NAV) relative to its Broadridge Performance Universe, the Trustees noted that the Fund had first quintile performance for the one-year period ended December 31, 2023.
The Trustees noted that the Fund’s total expense ratio (including interest and borrowing expenses) calculated on both average total managed assets and average net assets was below the median total expense ratio (including interest and borrowing expenses) of the funds in its Broadridge Expense Group and Broadridge Expense Universe. The Trustees noted that the Fund’s total expense ratio (excluding interest and borrowing expenses) calculated on average total managed assets was above the median total expense ratio (excluding interest and borrowing expenses) of the funds in its Broadridge Expense Group and Broadridge Expense Universe. The Trustees noted that the Fund’s total expense ratio (excluding interest and borrowing expenses) calculated on average net assets was below the median total expense ratio (excluding interest and borrowing expenses) of the funds in its Broadridge Expense Group and Broadridge Expense Universe.
Conclusion
After reviewing these and other factors described herein, the Trustees concluded, with respect to each Fund, within the context of their overall conclusions regarding the Agreements, and based on the information provided and related representations made by management, and in their business judgment, that they were satisfied with PIMCO’s responses and efforts relating to the investment performance of the Funds. The Trustees also concluded that the fees payable under the Agreements represent reasonable compensation in light of the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by PIMCO. Based on their evaluation of factors that they deemed to be material, including, but not limited to, those factors described above, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously concluded that the continuation of the Agreements was in the interests of each Fund and its shareholders, and should be approved.
