What drove fund performance during the past 12 months?
The U.S. investment-grade (IG) fixed income market generated positive results for the 12-month reporting period. Although U.S. Treasury yields generally moved higher, bond investors benefited from higher coupon payments as well as tighter credit spreads amid a resilient economy.
The fund’s underweight to Treasuries combined with allocations to high yield bonds and loans, Treasury inflation protected securities, and securitized credit contributed to relative performance versus the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. Security selection within the IG corporate sector was also beneficial.
Tactical positioning adjustments on the yield curve detracted from performance versus the benchmark as competing concerns about growth and inflation led to elevated interest rate volatility. Security selection in the agency mortgage-backed securities sector also hurt performance as the fund’s positions in to-be-announced instruments generally underperformed cash bonds that offered more stable cash flows.
The fund seeks to maximize total return through income and capital appreciation by investing in a broadly diversified portfolio of mostly investment-grade debt instruments. After shifting to an underweight position earlier in the period, we moved back to an overweight in IG corporates as recession fears eased, and the sector represented our largest position in absolute and relative terms at period-end.
The fund held material exposure to derivatives, which had an overall negative effect on absolute returns. Specifically, the fund’s positions in interest rate derivatives, which are primarily used to manage exposure to certain parts of the yield curve, weighed on absolute performance.

The preceding line graph shows the value of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the fund over the past 10 fiscal year periods or since inception (for funds lacking 10-year records). The fund’s performance information included in the line graph and table above is compared with a regulatory required index that represents an overall securities market (Regulatory Benchmark). In addition, the line graph and table may also include one or more indexes that more closely aligns to the fund's investment strategy (Strategy Benchmark(s)). Due to new SEC Rules on shareholder reporting the fund adopted a new broad-based securities market index, referred to as the Regulatory Benchmark. Market index returns do not include expenses, which are deducted from fund returns. The fund's total return figures reflect the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains, if any. Neither the fund’s returns nor the index returns reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or redemptions of fund shares. The fund’s past performance is not a good predictor of the fund’s future performance. Updated performance information can be found at www.troweprice.com.

What drove fund performance during the past 12 months?
The U.S. investment-grade (IG) fixed income market generated positive results for the 12-month reporting period. Although U.S. Treasury yields generally moved higher, bond investors benefited from higher coupon payments as well as tighter credit spreads amid a resilient economy.
The fund’s underweight to Treasuries combined with allocations to high yield bonds and loans, Treasury inflation protected securities, and securitized credit contributed to relative performance versus the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. Security selection within the IG corporate sector was also beneficial.
Tactical positioning adjustments on the yield curve detracted from performance versus the benchmark as competing concerns about growth and inflation led to elevated interest rate volatility. Security selection in the agency mortgage-backed securities sector also hurt performance as the fund’s positions in to-be-announced instruments generally underperformed cash bonds that offered more stable cash flows.
The fund seeks to maximize total return through income and capital appreciation by investing in a broadly diversified portfolio of mostly investment-grade debt instruments. After shifting to an underweight position earlier in the period, we moved back to an overweight in IG corporates as recession fears eased, and the sector represented our largest position in absolute and relative terms at period-end.
The fund held material exposure to derivatives, which had an overall negative effect on absolute returns. Specifically, the fund’s positions in interest rate derivatives, which are primarily used to manage exposure to certain parts of the yield curve, weighed on absolute performance.

The preceding line graph shows the value of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the fund over the past 10 fiscal year periods or since inception (for funds lacking 10-year records). The fund’s performance information included in the line graph and table above is compared with a regulatory required index that represents an overall securities market (Regulatory Benchmark). In addition, the line graph and table may also include one or more indexes that more closely aligns to the fund's investment strategy (Strategy Benchmark(s)). Due to new SEC Rules on shareholder reporting the fund adopted a new broad-based securities market index, referred to as the Regulatory Benchmark. Market index returns do not include expenses, which are deducted from fund returns. The fund's total return figures reflect the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains, if any. Neither the fund’s returns nor the index returns reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or redemptions of fund shares. The fund’s past performance is not a good predictor of the fund’s future performance. Updated performance information can be found at www.troweprice.com.
