Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 2024 (Unaudited)
1.Organization. Loomis Sayles Funds I (the “Trust”) is organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) as an open-end management investment company. The Declaration of Trust permits the Board of Trustees to authorize the issuance of an unlimited number of shares of the Trust in multiple series. The financial statements for certain funds of the Trust are presented in separate reports. The following funds (individually, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) are included in this report:
Loomis Sayles Bond Fund (“Bond Fund”)
Loomis Sayles Investment Grade Fixed Income Fund ("Investment Grade Fixed Income Fund")
Each Fund is a diversified investment company.
Each Fund offers Institutional Class shares. In addition, Bond Fund also offers Retail Class, Admin Class and Class N shares.
Each share class is sold without a sales charge. Retail Class and Admin Class shares pay a Rule 12b-1 fee. Admin Class shares are primarily intended for employer-sponsored retirement plans and are offered exclusively through intermediaries. Class N shares do not pay a front-end sales charge, a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) or Rule 12b-1 fees. Class N shares are offered with an initial minimum investment of $1,000,000. Institutional Class shares are intended for institutional investors with a minimum initial investment of $100,000 for Bond Fund and $3,000,000 for Investment Grade Fixed Income Fund. Certain categories of investors are exempted from the minimum investment amounts for Class N and Institutional Class as outlined in the relevant Fund’s prospectus.
Most expenses can be directly attributed to a Fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed to a Fund are generally apportioned based on the relative net assets of each of the Funds in Natixis Funds Trust I, Natixis Funds Trust II, Natixis Funds Trust IV, and Gateway Trust (“Natixis Funds Trusts”), and Loomis Sayles Funds I and Loomis Sayles Funds II (“Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts”), and Natixis ETF Trust and Natixis ETF Trust II (“Natixis ETF Trusts”). Expenses of a Fund are borne pro rata by the holders of each class of shares, except that each class bears expenses unique to that class (such as the Rule 12b-1 fees applicable to Retail Class and Admin Class) and transfer agent fees are borne collectively for Institutional Class, Retail Class, and Admin Class, and individually for Class N. In addition, each class votes as a class only with respect to its own Rule 12b-1 Plan. Shares of each class would receive their pro rata share of the net assets of a Fund if the Fund were liquidated. The Trustees approve separate distributions from net investment income on each class of shares.
2.Significant Accounting Policies. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by each Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The Funds' financial statements follow the accounting and reporting guidelines provided for investment companies and are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which require the use of management estimates that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management has evaluated the events and transactions subsequent to period-end through the date the financial statements were issued and has determined that there were no material events that would require disclosure in the Funds' financial statements.
a. Valuation. Registered investment companies are required to value portfolio investments using an unadjusted, readily available market quotation. Each Fund obtains readily available market quotations from independent pricing services. Fund investments for which readily
available market quotations are not available are priced at fair value pursuant to the Funds’ Valuation Procedures. The Board of Trustees has approved a valuation designee who is subject to the Board’s oversight.
Unadjusted readily available market quotations that are utilized for exchange traded equity securities (including shares of closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds) include the last sale price quoted on the exchange where the security is traded most extensively. Futures contracts are valued at the closing settlement price on the exchange on which the valuation designee believes that, over time, they are traded most extensively. Shares of open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value ("NAV") per share.
Exchange traded equity securities for which there is no reported sale during the day are fair valued at the closing bid quotation as reported by an independent pricing service. Unlisted equity securities (except unlisted preferred equity securities) are fair valued at the last sale price quoted in the market where they are traded most extensively or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid quotation as reported by an independent pricing service. If there is no last sale price or closing bid quotation available, unlisted equity securities will be fair valued using evaluated bids furnished by an independent pricing service, if available.
Debt securities and unlisted preferred equity securities are fair valued based on evaluated bids furnished to the Funds by an independent pricing service or bid prices obtained from broker-dealers. Senior loans and collateralized loan obligations ("CLOs") are fair valued at bid prices supplied by an independent pricing service, if available. Broker-dealer bid prices may be used to fair value debt, unlisted equities, senior loans and CLOs where an independent pricing service is unable to price an investment or where an independent pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the investment. Forward foreign currency contracts are fair valued utilizing interpolated rates determined based on information provided by an independent pricing service.
The Funds may also fair value investments in other circumstances such as when extraordinary events occur after the close of a foreign market, but prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange. This may include situations relating to a single issuer (such as a declaration of
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2024 (Unaudited)
bankruptcy or a delisting of the issuer’s security from the primary market on which it has traded) as well as events affecting the securities markets in general (such as market disruptions or closings and significant fluctuations in U.S. and/or foreign markets). When fair valuing a Fund’s investments, the valuation designee may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as issuer specific information, or other related market activity and/or information that occurred after the close of the foreign market but before the time the Fund’s NAV is calculated. Fair valuation by the Fund(s) valuation designee may require subjective determinations about the value of the investment, and fair values used to determine a Fund’s NAV may differ from quoted or published prices, or from prices that are used by others, for the same investments. In addition, the use of fair value pricing may not always result in adjustments to the prices of investments held by a Fund.
b. Investment Transactions and Related Investment Income. Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date plus one day basis for daily NAV calculation. However, for financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are reported on trade date. Dividend income (including income reinvested) and foreign withholding tax, if applicable, are recorded on the ex-dividend date, or in the case of certain foreign securities, as soon as a Fund is notified, and interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Loan consent fees, upfront origination fees and/or amendment fees are recorded when received and included in interest income on the Statements of Operations. Interest income is increased by the accretion of discount and decreased by the amortization of premium, if applicable. For securities with paydown provisions, principal payments received are treated as a proportionate reduction to the cost basis of the securities, and excess or shortfall amounts are recorded as income. Distributions received from investments in securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments or as a realized gain, respectively. In determining net gain or loss on securities sold, the cost of securities has been determined on an identified cost basis. Investment income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund.
c. Foreign Currency Translation. The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars, if any, are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars on the respective dates of such transactions.
Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currency, changes in exchange rates between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded in the Funds’ books and records and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than investment securities, as of the end of the fiscal period, resulting from changes in exchange rates. Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses and the net change in unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses are disclosed in the Statements of Operations. For federal income tax purposes, net realized foreign exchange gains or losses are characterized as ordinary income and may, if the Funds have net losses, reduce the amount of income available to be distributed by the Funds.
The values of investment securities are presented at the foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period for financial reporting purposes. Net realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments reported in the Statements of Operations reflect gains or losses resulting from changes in exchange rates and fluctuations which arise due to changes in market prices of investment securities. For federal income tax purposes, a portion of the net realized gain or loss on investments arising from changes in exchange rates, which is reflected in the Statements of Operations, may be characterized as ordinary income and may, if the Funds have net losses, reduce the amount of income available to be distributed by the Funds.
The Funds may use foreign currency exchange contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated investments. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts’ terms.
d. Forward Foreign Currency Contracts. A Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts, including forward foreign cross currency contracts, to acquire exposure to foreign currencies or to hedge the Funds’ investments against currency fluctuation. A contract can also be used to offset a previous contract. These contracts involve market risk in excess of the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) reflected in the Funds’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The U.S. dollar value of the currencies a Fund has committed to buy or sell represents the aggregate exposure to each currency a Fund has acquired or hedged through currency contracts outstanding at period end. Gains or losses are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized until settlement date. Contracts are traded over-the-counter directly with a counterparty. Risks may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. Certain contracts may require the movement of cash and/or securities as collateral for the Funds’ or counterparty’s net obligations under the contracts. Forward foreign currency contracts outstanding at the end of the period, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund's Portfolio of Investments.
e. Futures Contracts. A Fund may enter into futures contracts. Futures contracts are agreements between two parties to buy and sell a particular instrument or index for a specified price on a specified future date.
When a Fund enters into a futures contract, it is required to deposit with (or for the benefit of) its broker an amount of cash or short-term high-quality securities as “initial margin.” As the value of the contract changes, the value of the futures contract position increases or declines.
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2024 (Unaudited)
Subsequent payments, known as “variation margin,” are made or received by a Fund, depending on the price fluctuations in the fair value of the contract and the value of cash or securities on deposit with the broker. The aggregate principal amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the financial statements. Daily fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as a receivable (payable) and in the Statements of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized gains (losses). Realized gain or loss on a futures position is equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed, minus brokerage commissions. When a Fund enters into a futures contract certain risks may arise, such as illiquidity in the futures market, which may limit a Fund’s ability to close out a futures contract prior to settlement date, and unanticipated movements in the value of securities or interest rates. Futures contracts outstanding at the end of the period, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund's Portfolio of Investments.
Futures contracts are exchange-traded. Exchange-traded futures contracts are standardized and are settled through a clearing house with fulfillment supported by the credit of the exchange. Therefore, counterparty credit risks to the Funds are reduced; however, in the event that a counterparty enters into bankruptcy, a Fund’s claim against initial/variation margin on deposit with the counterparty may be subject to terms of a final settlement in bankruptcy court.
f. When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions. A Fund may enter into when-issued or delayed delivery transactions. When-issued refers to transactions made conditionally because a security, although authorized, has not been issued. Delayed delivery refers to transactions for which delivery or payment will occur at a later date, beyond the normal settlement period. The price of when-issued and delayed delivery securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The security and the obligation to pay for it are recorded by the Funds at the time the commitment is entered into. The value of the security may vary with market fluctuations during the time before the Funds take delivery of the security. No interest accrues to the Funds until the transaction settles.
Delayed delivery transactions include those designated as To Be Announced (“TBAs”) in the Portfolios of Investments. For TBAs, the actual security that will be delivered to fulfill the transaction is not designated at the time of the trade. The security is “to be announced” 48 hours prior to the established trade settlement date. Certain transactions require the Funds or counterparty to post cash and/or securities as collateral for the net mark-to-market exposure to the other party.
Purchases of when-issued or delayed delivery securities may have a similar effect on the Funds’ NAV as if the Funds’ had created a degree of leverage in the portfolio. Risks may arise upon entering into such transactions from the potential inability of counterparties to meet their obligations under the transactions. Additionally, losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities.
There were no when-issued or delayed delivery securities held by the Funds as of June 30, 2024.
g. Federal and Foreign Income Taxes. The Trust treats each Fund as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund intends to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute to its shareholders substantially all of its net investment income and any net realized capital gains at least annually. Management has performed an analysis of each Fund’s tax positions for the open tax years as of June 30, 2024 and has concluded that no provisions for income tax are required. The Funds’ federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Management is not aware of any events that are reasonably possible to occur in the next six months that would result in the amounts of any unrecognized tax benefits significantly increasing or decreasing for the Funds. However, management’s conclusions regarding tax positions taken may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws and accounting regulations and interpretations thereof.
A Fund may be subject to foreign withholding taxes on investment income and taxes on capital gains on investments that are accrued and paid based upon the Fund’s understanding of the tax rules and regulations that exist in the countries in which the Fund invests. Foreign withholding taxes on dividend and interest income are reflected on the Statements of Operations as a reduction of investment income, net of amounts that have been or are expected to be reclaimed and paid. Dividends and interest receivable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities are net of foreign withholding taxes. Foreign withholding taxes where reclaims have been or are expected to be filed and paid are reflected on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as tax reclaims receivable. Capital gains taxes paid are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments in the Statements of Operations. Accrued but unpaid capital gains taxes are reflected as foreign taxes payable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, if applicable, and reduce unrealized gains on investments. In the event that realized gains on investments are subsequently offset by realized losses, taxes paid on realized gains may be returned to a Fund. Such amounts, if applicable, are reflected as foreign tax rebates receivable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and are recorded as a realized gain when received.
h. Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Permanent differences are primarily due to differing treatments for book and tax purposes of items such as defaulted and/or non-income producing securities, premium amortization, convertible bond adjustments, corporate actions, foreign currency gains and losses, forward foreign currency contract mark-to-market, futures contract mark-to-
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2024 (Unaudited)
market, trust preferred securities, return of capital distributions received, capital gain distributions received and paydown gains and losses. Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions, net investment income and net realized gains will result in reclassifications to capital accounts reported on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Temporary differences between book and tax distributable earnings are primarily due to deferred Trustees’ fees, wash sales, defaulted and/or non-income producing securities, return of capital distributions received, trust preferred securities, corporate actions, capital gain distributions received, premium amortization, forward foreign currency contract mark-to-market, perpetual bond adjustments, paydown gains and losses, straddle loss deferral adjustments, convertible bond adjustments and futures contract mark-to-market. Amounts of income and capital gain available to be distributed on a tax basis are determined annually, and at other times during the Funds’ fiscal year as may be necessary to avoid knowingly declaring and paying a return of capital distribution. Distributions from net investment income and net realized short-term capital gains are reported as distributed from ordinary income for tax purposes.
The tax characterization of distributions is determined on an annual basis. The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the year ended December 31, 2023 was as follows:
| |
| | | |
| | | |
Investment Grade Fixed Income Fund | | | |
Distributions paid to shareholders from net investment income and net realized capital gains, based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, are consolidated and reported on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets as Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions paid to shareholders from net investment income and net realized capital gains expressed in per-share amounts, based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, are separately stated and reported within the Financial Highlights.
As of December 31, 2023, capital loss carryforwards were as follows:
| | Investment
Grade Fixed
Income Fund |
Capital loss carryforward: | | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
Total capital loss carryforward | | |
As of June 30, 2024, the tax cost of investments (including derivatives, if applicable) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a federal tax basis were as follows:
| | Investment
Grade Fixed
Income Fund |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
Amounts in the table above exclude certain adjustments that will be made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Adjustments may include, but are not limited to, wash sales and derivatives mark-to-market.
i. Senior Loans. A Fund’s investment in senior loans may be to corporate, governmental or other borrowers. Senior loans, which include both secured and unsecured loans made by banks and other financial institutions to corporate customers, typically hold the most senior position in a borrower’s capital structure, may be secured by the borrower’s assets and have interest rates that reset frequently. Senior Loans can include term loans, revolving credit facility loans and second lien loans. A senior loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2024 (Unaudited)
that acts as agent for all holders. The agent administers the terms of the senior loan, as specified in the loan agreement. Large loans may be shared or syndicated among several lenders. The Fund may enter into the primary syndicate for a loan or it may also purchase all or a portion of loans from other lenders (sometimes referred to as loan assignments), in either case becoming a direct lender. The settlement period for senior loans is uncertain as there is no standardized settlement schedule applicable to such investments. Senior loans outstanding at the end of the period, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Portfolio of Investments.
j. Collateralized Loan Obligations. A Fund may invest in CLOs. A CLO is a type of asset-backed security designed to redirect the cash flows from a pool of leveraged loans to investors based on their risk preferences. Cash flows from a CLO are split into two or more portions, called tranches, varying in risk and yield. The risk of an investment in a CLO depends largely on the type of the collateralized securities and the class of the instrument in which the Fund invests. CLOs outstanding at the end of the period, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Portfolio of Investments.
k. Repurchase Agreements. Each Fund may enter into repurchase agreements, under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement, under which each Fund acquires securities as collateral and agrees to resell the securities at an agreed upon time and at an agreed upon price. It is each Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral for repurchase agreements be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. Certain repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty, including possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities. As of June 30, 2024, each Fund, as applicable, had investments in repurchase agreements for which the value of the related collateral exceeded the value of the repurchase agreement. The gross value of repurchase agreements is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for financial reporting purposes.
l. Due to Brokers. Transactions and positions in certain forward foreign currency contracts are maintained and cleared by registered U.S. broker/dealers pursuant to customer agreements between the Funds and the various broker/dealers. The due to broker balance in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for Bond Fund represents securities received as collateral for forward foreign currency contracts. In certain circumstances the Funds’ use of cash held at brokers is restricted by regulation or broker mandated limits.
m. Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
3.Fair Value Measurements In accordance with accounting standards related to fair value measurements and disclosures, the Funds have categorized the inputs utilized in determining the value of each Fund’s assets or liabilities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
• Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
• Level 2 — prices determined using other significant inputs that are observable either directly, or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data (which could include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.); and
• Level 3 — prices determined using significant unobservable inputs when quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable such as when there is little or no market activity for an asset or liability (unobservable inputs reflect each Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities and would be based on the best information available).
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The Funds' pricing policies have been approved by the Board of Trustees. Investments for which market quotations are readily available are categorized in Level 1. Other investments for which an independent pricing service is utilized are categorized in Level 2. Broker-dealer bid prices for which the Funds have knowledge of the inputs used by the broker-dealer are categorized in Level 2. All other investments, including broker-dealer bid prices for which the Funds do not have knowledge of the inputs used by the broker-dealer, as well as investments fair valued by the valuation designee, are categorized in Level 3. All Level 2 and 3 securities are defined as being fair valued.
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2024 (Unaudited)
Under certain conditions and based upon specific facts and circumstances, the Fund’s valuation designee may determine that a fair valuation should be made for portfolio investment(s). These valuation designee fair valuations will be based upon a significant amount of Level 3 inputs.

4.Derivatives. Derivative instruments are defined as financial instruments whose value and performance are based on the value and performance of an underlying asset, reference rate or index. Derivative instruments that the Funds used during the period include forward foreign currency contracts and futures contracts.
The Funds are subject to the risk that changes in foreign currency exchange rates will have an unfavorable effect on the value of Fund assets denominated in foreign currencies. The Funds may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts for hedging purposes to protect the value of the Funds’ holdings of foreign securities. The Funds may also use forward foreign currency contracts to gain exposure to foreign currencies, regardless of whether securities denominated in such currencies are held in the Funds. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, Bond Fund engaged in forward foreign currency contracts for hedging purposes and to gain exposure to foreign currencies.
The Funds are subject to the risk that changes in interest rates will affect the value of the Funds’ investments in fixed-income securities. The Funds will be subject to increased interest rate risk to the extent that they invest in fixed-income securities with longer maturities or durations, as compared to investing in fixed-income securities with shorter maturities or durations. The Funds may use futures contracts to hedge against changes in interest rates and to manage duration without having to buy or sell portfolio securities. The Funds may also use futures contracts to gain investment exposure. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Funds used futures contracts to manage duration.

As the Funds value their derivatives at fair value and recognize changes in fair value through the Statements of Operations, they do not qualify for hedge accounting under authoritative guidance for derivative instruments. The Funds’ investments in derivatives may represent an economic hedge; however, they are considered to be non-hedge transactions for the purpose of these disclosures.
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

The volume of forward foreign currency contract and futures contract activity, as a percentage of net assets for the Funds, based on gross month-end or daily (as applicable) notional amounts outstanding during the period, including long and short positions at absolute value, was as follows for the six months ended June 30, 2024:

Notional amounts outstanding at the end of the prior period, if applicable, are included in the average notional amount outstanding.
Unrealized gain and/or loss on open forwards and futures is recorded in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The aggregate notional values of forwards and futures contracts are not recorded in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, and therefore are not included in the Funds’ net assets.
Over-the-counter derivatives, including forward foreign currency contracts, are entered into pursuant to International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“ISDA”) agreements negotiated between the Funds and their counterparties. ISDA agreements typically contain, among other things, terms for the posting of collateral and master netting provisions in the event of a default or other termination event. Collateral is posted by a Fund or the counterparty to the extent of the net mark-to-market exposure to the other party of all open contracts under the agreement, subject to minimum transfer requirements. Master netting provisions allow the Funds and the counterparty, in the event of a default or other termination event, to offset amounts owed by each related to derivative contracts, including any posted collateral, to one net amount payable by either the Funds or the counterparty. The Funds’ ISDA agreements typically contain provisions that allow a counterparty to terminate open contracts early if the NAV of a Fund declines beyond a certain threshold. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds do not offset derivative assets and liabilities, and any related collateral received or pledged, on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
As of June 30, 2024, gross amounts of over-the-counter derivative assets and liabilities not offset in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and the related net amounts after taking into account master netting arrangements, by counterparty, are as follows:
|
| | | | Collateral
(Received)/
Pledged | |
| | | | | |
The actual collateral received or pledged, if any, may exceed the amounts shown in the table due to overcollateralization. Timing differences may exist between when contracts under the ISDA agreements are marked-to-market and when collateral moves. The ISDA agreements include tri-party control agreements under which collateral is held for the benefit of the secured party at a third party custodian, State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street Bank”).
Counterparty risk is managed based on policies and procedures established by each Fund’s adviser. Such policies and procedures may include, but are not limited to, minimum counterparty credit rating requirements, monitoring of counterparty credit default swap spreads and posting of collateral. A Fund’s risk of loss from counterparty credit risk on over-the-counter derivatives is generally limited to the Fund’s aggregated unrealized gains and the amount of any collateral pledged to the counterparty, which may be offset by any collateral posted to the Fund by the counterparty. ISDA master agreements can help to manage counterparty risk by specifying collateral posting arrangements at pre-arranged exposure levels. Under these ISDA agreements, collateral is routinely transferred if the total net exposure in respect of certain transactions, net of existing collateral already in place, exceeds a specified amount. With exchange-traded derivatives, there is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Fund because the exchange’s clearing house, as counterparty to these instruments, stands between the buyer and the seller of the contract. Credit risk still exists in exchange-traded derivatives with respect to initial and variation margin that is held in a broker’s customer accounts. While brokers typically are required to segregate customer margin for exchange-traded derivatives from their own assets, in the event that a broker becomes insolvent or goes into bankruptcy and at that time there is a shortfall in the aggregate amount of margin held by the broker for all its customers, U.S. bankruptcy laws will typically allocate that shortfall on a pro rata basis across all of the broker’s customers, potentially resulting in losses to the Fund.

6.Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
a. Management Fees. Loomis, Sayles & Company, L.P. (“Loomis Sayles”) serves as investment adviser to each Fund. Loomis Sayles is a limited partnership whose sole general partner, Loomis, Sayles & Company, Inc., is indirectly owned by Natixis Investment Managers, LLC, which is part of Natixis Investment Managers, an international asset management group based in Paris, France.
Under the terms of the management agreements, each Fund pays a management fee at the following annual rates, calculated daily and payable monthly, based on the Fund’s average daily net assets:
| Percentage of Average Daily Net Assets |
| | | |
| | | |
Investment Grade Fixed Income Fund | | | |
Loomis Sayles has given binding undertakings to the Funds to waive management fees and/or reimburse certain expenses to limit the Funds’ operating expenses, exclusive of acquired fund fees and expenses, brokerage expenses, interest expense, taxes, organizational and extraordinary expenses such as litigation and indemnification expenses. These undertakings are in effect until April 30, 2025, may be terminated before then only with the consent of the Funds’ Board of Trustees, and are reevaluated on an annual basis.

Waivers/reimbursements that exceed management fees payable are reflected on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as receivable from investment adviser.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the expense limits as a percentage of average daily net assets under the expense limitation agreements were as follows:
| Expense Limit as a Percentage of
Average Daily Net Assets |

| | | | |
This new undertaking is in effect until April 30, 2026, may be terminated before then only with the consent of the Fund’s Board of Trustees, and will be reevaluated on an annual basis.
Loomis Sayles shall be permitted to recover expenses borne under the expense limitation agreements (whether through waiver of management fees or otherwise) on a class by class basis in later periods to the extent the annual operating expenses of a class fall below both (1) a class’ expense limitation ratio in place at the time such amounts were waived/reimbursed and (2) a class’ current applicable expense limitation ratio, provided, however, that a class is not obligated to pay such waived/reimbursed fees or expenses more than one year after the end of the fiscal year in which the fees or expenses were waived/reimbursed.

b. Service and Distribution Fees. Natixis Distribution, LLC (“Natixis Distribution”), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Natixis Investment Managers, LLC, has entered into a distribution agreement with the Trust. Pursuant to this agreement, Natixis Distribution serves as principal underwriter of the Funds of the Trust.
Pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, Bond Fund has adopted Distribution Plans relating to the Fund’s Retail Class shares (the “Retail Class Plan”) and Admin Class shares (the “Admin Class Plan”).
Under the Retail Class Plan, Bond Fund pays Natixis Distribution a monthly distribution fee at an annual rate not to exceed 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to the Fund’s Retail Class shares, as compensation for services provided by Natixis Distribution in connection with the marketing or sale of Retail Class shares or for payments made by Natixis Distribution to securities dealers or other financial intermediaries as commissions, asset-based sales charges or other compensation with respect to the sale of Retail Class shares, or for providing personal services to investors and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts.
Under the Admin Class Plan, Bond Fund pays Natixis Distribution a monthly distribution fee at an annual rate not to exceed 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to the Fund’s Admin Class shares, as compensation for services provided by Natixis Distribution in connection with the marketing or sale of Admin Class shares or for payments made by Natixis Distribution to securities dealers or other financial intermediaries as commissions, asset-based sales charges or other compensation with respect to the sales of Admin Class shares, or for providing personal services to investors and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts.
In addition, the Admin Class shares of Bond Fund may pay Natixis Distribution an administrative service fee, at an annual rate not to exceed 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to Admin Class shares. These fees are subsequently paid to securities dealers or financial intermediaries for providing personal services and/or account maintenance for their customers who hold such shares.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the service and distribution fees for Bond Fund were as follows:
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, Natixis Distribution refunded Bond Fund $9,675 of prior year Admin Class service fees paid to Natixis Distribution in excess of amounts subsequently paid to securities dealers or financial intermediaries. Service and distribution fees on the Statements of Operations have been reduced by these amounts.
c. Administrative Fees. Natixis Advisors, LLC (“Natixis Advisors”) provides certain administrative services for the Funds and contracts with State Street Bank to serve as sub-administrator. Natixis Advisors is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Natixis Investment Managers, LLC. Pursuant to an agreement among Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts, Natixis ETF Trusts and Natixis Advisors, each Fund pays Natixis Advisors monthly its pro rata portion of fees equal to an annual rate of 0.0540% of the first $15 billion of the average daily net assets of the Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Natixis ETF Trusts, 0.0500% of the next $15 billion, 0.0400% of the next $30 billion, 0.0275% of the next $30 billion and 0.0225% of such assets in excess of $90 billion, subject to an annual aggregate minimum fee for the Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Natixis ETF Trusts of $10 million, which is reevaluated on an annual basis.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the administrative fees for each Fund were as follows:

d. Sub-Transfer Agent Fees. Natixis Distribution has entered into agreements, which include servicing agreements, with financial intermediaries that provide recordkeeping, processing, shareholder communications and other services to customers of the intermediaries that hold positions in the Funds and has agreed to compensate the intermediaries for providing those services. Intermediaries transact with the Funds primarily through the use of omnibus accounts on behalf of their customers who hold positions in the Funds. These services would have been provided by the Funds’ transfer agent and other service providers if the shareholders’ accounts were maintained directly at the Funds’ transfer agent. Accordingly, the Funds have agreed to reimburse Natixis Distribution for all or a portion of the servicing fees paid to these intermediaries. The reimbursement amounts (sub-transfer agent fees) paid to Natixis Distribution are subject to a current per-account equivalent fee limit approved by the Funds’ Board of Trustees, which is based on fees for similar services paid to the Funds’ transfer agent and other service providers. Class N shares do not bear such expenses.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the sub-transfer agent fees (which are reflected in transfer agent fees and expenses in the Statements of Operations) for Bond Fund were $1,525,885.
As of June 30, 2024, Bond Fund owes Natixis Distribution $37,786 in reimbursements for sub-transfer agent fees (which are reflected in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as payable to distributor).
Sub-transfer agent fees attributable to Institutional Class, Retail Class and Admin Class are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of those classes.
e. Trustees Fees and Expenses. The Trust does not pay any compensation directly to its officers or Trustees who are directors, officers or employees of Natixis Advisors, Natixis Distribution, Natixis Investment Managers, LLC or their affiliates. The Chairperson of the Board of Trustees receives a retainer fee at the annual rate of $400,000. The Chairperson does not receive any meeting attendance fees for Board of Trustees meetings or committee meetings that he attends. Each Independent Trustee (other than the Chairperson) receives, in the aggregate, a retainer fee at the annual rate of $225,000. Each Independent Trustee also receives a meeting attendance fee of $10,000 for each meeting of the Board of Trustees that he or she attends in person and $5,000 for each meeting of the Board of Trustees that he or she attends telephonically. In addition, the Chairperson of the Contract Review Committee and the Chairperson of the Audit Committee each receive an additional retainer fee at the annual rate of $25,000. The Chairperson of the Governance Committee receives an additional retainer fee at the annual rate of $20,000. Each Contract Review Committee member is compensated $6,000 for each Committee meeting that he or she attends in person and $3,000 for each meeting that he or she attends telephonically. Each Audit Committee member is compensated $6,000 for each Committee meeting that he or she attends in person and $3,000 for each meeting that he or she attends telephonically. Each Governance Committee member is compensated $2,500 for each Committee meeting that he or she attends. These fees are allocated among the funds in the Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Natixis ETF Trusts based on a formula that takes into account, among other factors, the relative net assets of each fund. Trustees are reimbursed for travel expenses in connection with attendance at meetings.
A deferred compensation plan (the “Plan”) is available to the Trustees on a voluntary basis. The value of a participating Trustee’s deferral account is based on theoretical investments of deferred amounts, on the normal payment dates, in certain funds of the Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Natixis ETF Trusts as designated by the participating Trustees. Changes in the value of participants’ deferral accounts are allocated pro rata among the funds in the Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Natixis ETF Trusts and are normally reflected as Trustees’ fees and expenses in the Statements of Operations. Deferred amounts remain in the funds until distributed in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. The portions of the accrued obligations allocated to the Funds under the Plan are reflected as Deferred Trustees’ fees in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Certain officers and employees of Natixis Advisors and Loomis Sayles are also officers and/or Trustees of the Trust.
f. Affiliated Ownership. As of June 30, 2024, Loomis Sayles Employees’ Profit Sharing Retirement Plan held shares of Bond Fund representing 0.57% of the Fund's net assets.
7.Class-Specific Transfer Agent Fees and Expenses. Transfer agent fees and expenses for Bond Fund attributable to Institutional Class, Retail Class and Admin Class are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of those classes. Transfer agent fees and expenses attributable to Class N are allocated to Class N.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, Bond Fund incurred the following class-specific transfer agent fees and expenses (net of expense offsets and including sub-transfer agent fees, where applicable):
| Transfer Agent Fees and Expenses |
| | | | |
| | | | |
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2024 (Unaudited)
8.Expense Offset Arrangements. The Funds have entered into an agreement with the transfer agent whereby certain transfer agent fees and expenses may be paid indirectly by credits earned on the Funds' cash balances. Transfer agent fees and expenses are presented in the Statements of Operations gross of such credits, and the credits are presented as offsets to expenses.
9.Line of Credit. Each Fund, together with certain other funds of Natixis Funds Trusts, Loomis Sayles Funds Trusts and Natixis ETF Trusts, entered into a syndicated, revolving, committed, unsecured line of credit with State Street Bank as administrative agent. The aggregate revolving commitment amount is $575,000,000. Any one Fund may borrow up to $402,500,000 under the line of credit agreement (as long as all borrowings by all Funds in the aggregate do not exceed the $575,000,000 limit at any time), subject to each Fund’s investment restrictions and its contractual obligations under the line of credit. Interest is charged to the Funds based upon the terms set forth in the agreement. In addition, a commitment fee of 0.15% per annum, payable at the end of each calendar quarter, is accrued and apportioned among the participating funds based on their average daily unused portion of the line of credit.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, neither Fund had borrowings under this agreement.
10.Risk. Geopolitical events (such as trading halts, sanctions or wars) could increase volatility and uncertainty in the financial markets and adversely affect regional and global economies. These, and other related events, could significantly impact a Fund's performance and the value of an investment in the Fund, even if the Fund does not have direct exposure to issuers in the country or countries involved.
11.Concentration of Ownership. From time to time, a Fund may have a concentration of one or more accounts constituting a significant percentage of shares outstanding. Investment activities by holders of such accounts could have material impacts on the Funds. As of June 30, 2024, based on management’s evaluation of the shareholder account base, the Funds had accounts representing controlling ownership of more than 5% of the Funds' total outstanding shares. The number of such accounts, based on accounts that represent more than 5% of an individual class of shares, and the aggregate percentage of net assets represented by such holdings were as follows:
| Number of 5%
Account Holders | |
| | |
Investment Grade Fixed Income Fund | | |
Omnibus shareholder accounts for which Natixis Advisors understands that the intermediary has discretion over the underlying shareholder accounts or investment models where a shareholder account may be invested for a non-discretionary customer are included in the table above. For other omnibus accounts, the Funds do not have information on the individual shareholder accounts underlying the omnibus accounts; therefore, there could be other 5% shareholders in addition to those disclosed in the table above.

BOARD APPROVAL OF THE EXISTING ADVISORY AGREEMENTS
The Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board”), including the Independent Trustees, considers matters bearing on each Fund’s advisory agreement (collectively, the “Agreements”) at most of its meetings throughout the year. Each year, usually in the spring, the Contract Review Committee of the Board meets to review the Agreements to determine whether to recommend that the full Board approve the continuation of the Agreements, typically for an additional one-year period. This meeting typically includes all the Independent Trustees, including the Trustees who do not serve on the Contract Review Committee. After the Contract Review Committee has made its recommendation, the full Board, including the Independent Trustees, determines whether to approve the continuation of the Agreements at its June Board meeting.
In connection with these meetings, the Trustees receive materials that the Funds’ investment adviser (the “Adviser”) believes to be reasonably necessary for the Trustees to evaluate the Agreements. These materials generally include, among other items, (i) information on the investment performance of the Funds and the performance of peer groups of funds and the Funds’ performance benchmarks, (ii) information on the Funds’ advisory fees and other expenses, including information comparing the Funds’ advisory fees to the fees charged to institutional accounts with similar strategies managed by the Adviser, if any, and to those of peer groups of funds and information about any applicable expense limitations and/or fee “breakpoints,” (iii) sales and redemption data in respect of the Funds, (iv) information about the profitability of the Agreements to the Adviser, including how profitability is determined for the Funds, and (v) information obtained through the completion by the Adviser of questionnaires distributed on behalf of the Trustees throughout the year. The Board, including the Independent Trustees, also considers other matters such as (i) each Fund’s investment objective and strategies and the size, education and experience of the Adviser’s investment staff and its use of technology, external research and trading cost measurement tools, (ii) arrangements in respect of the distribution of the Funds’ shares and the related costs, (iii) the allocation of the Funds’ brokerage, if any, including, to the extent applicable, allocations to brokers affiliated with the Adviser and the use of “soft” commission dollars to pay for research and other similar services, (iv) the Adviser’s policies and procedures relating to, among other things, compliance, trading and best execution, proxy voting, liquidity and valuation, (v) information about amounts invested by the Funds’ portfolio managers in the Funds or in similar accounts that they manage and (vi) the general economic outlook with particular emphasis on the mutual fund industry. Throughout the process, the Trustees are afforded the opportunity to ask questions of and request additional materials from the Adviser and the Independent Trustees meet separately with independent legal counsel outside the presence of Adviser personnel.
In addition to the materials requested by the Trustees in connection with their annual consideration of the continuation of the Agreements, the Trustees receive materials in advance of each regular quarterly meeting of the Board that provide detailed information about the Funds’ investment performance and the fees charged to the Funds for advisory and other services. The information received by the Trustees generally includes, where available, among other things, an internal performance rating for each Fund based on agreed-upon criteria, graphs showing each Fund’s performance and expense differentials against each Fund’s peer group/category of funds, total return information for various periods, performance rankings provided by a third-party data provider for various periods comparing a Fund against similarly categorized funds, and performance ratings provided by a different third-party rating organization. The portfolio management team for each Fund or other representatives of the Adviser make periodic presentations to the Contract Review Committee and/or the full Board, and Funds identified as presenting possible performance concerns may be subject to more frequent Board or Committee presentations and reviews. In addition, the Trustees are periodically provided with detailed statistical information about each Fund’s portfolio. The Trustees also receive periodic updates between meetings, both at the Board and at the Committee level.
The Board most recently approved the continuation of the Agreements for a one-year period at its meeting held in June 2024. In considering whether to approve the continuation of the Agreements, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, did not identify any single factor as determinative. Individual Trustees may have evaluated the information presented differently from one another, giving different weights to various factors. Matters considered by the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, in connection with their approval of the Agreements included, but were not limited to, the factors listed below.
The nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds under the Agreements. The Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and its affiliates to the Funds and the resources dedicated to the Funds by the Adviser and its affiliates. The Trustees also considered their experience with other funds advised or sub-advised by the Adviser, as well as the affiliation between the Adviser and Natixis Investment Managers, LLC, whose affiliates provide investment advisory services to other funds in the Natixis family of funds.
The Trustees considered not only the advisory services provided by the Adviser to the Funds, but also the benefits to the Funds from the monitoring and oversight services provided by Natixis Advisors, LLC (“Natixis Advisors”). They also considered the administrative and shareholder services provided by Natixis Advisors and its affiliates to the Funds. They also took into consideration increases in the services provided resulting from new regulatory requirements, such as recent rules relating to the fair valuation of investments and the use of derivatives, implementation of tailored shareholder reports and amendments to the Names Rule, as well as from monitoring proposed rules, such as those relating to cybersecurity, environmental, social, and governance-specific regulatory changes, and vendor oversight.
For each Fund, the Trustees also considered the benefits to shareholders of investing in a mutual fund that is part of a family of funds that offers shareholders the right to exchange shares of one type of fund for shares of another type of fund, and provides a variety of fund and shareholder services.
After reviewing these and related factors, the Trustees concluded, within the context of their overall conclusions regarding each of the Agreements, that the nature, extent and quality of services provided supported the renewal of the Agreements.
Investment performance of the Funds and the Adviser. As noted above, the Trustees received information about the performance of the Funds over various time periods, including information that compared the performance of the Funds to the performance of peer groups and categories of funds and the Funds’ respective performance benchmarks. The Board noted that while it found the data provided by the independent third-party data provider useful, it recognized its limitations, including, in particular, that notable differences may exist between the Funds and the performance comparisons (for example, with respect to investment strategies) and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on (i) the end dates for the performance periods that were selected and (ii) the selection of the performance comparisons. The Trustees also received information about how comparative peer groups are constructed. In addition, the Trustees reviewed data prepared by an independent third-party rating organization that analyzed the performance of the Funds using a variety of performance metrics, including metrics that measured the performance of the Funds on a risk adjusted basis.
The Board noted that through December 31, 2023, each Fund’s one-, three- and five-year performance, stated as percentile rankings within categories selected by the independent third-party data provider, was as follows (where the best performance would be in the first percentile of its category):
| | | |
| | | |
Loomis Sayles Investment Grade Fixed Income Fund | | | |
In the case of the Fund that had performance that lagged that of a relevant category median as determined by the independent third-party data provider for the relevant periods, the Board concluded that other factors relevant to performance supported renewal of the Fund’s Agreement. These factors included one or more of the following: (1) that the underperformance was attributable, to a significant extent, to investment decisions (such as security selection or sector allocation) by the Adviser that were reasonable and consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and policies; (2) that the Fund’s performance for a recent (though not necessarily the most recent) calendar year was stronger relative to its category; and (3) that the Fund had outperformed its relevant benchmark for the one-year period ended December 31, 2023. The Board also considered information about each Fund’s more recent performance, including how performance over various periods had been impacted by various factors such as market and economic events.
The Trustees also considered the Adviser’s performance and reputation generally, the performance of the fund family generally, and the historical responsiveness of the Adviser to Trustee concerns about performance and the willingness of the Adviser to take steps intended to improve performance.
After reviewing these and related factors, the Trustees concluded, within the context of their overall conclusions regarding each of the Agreements, that the performance of the Funds and the Adviser and/or other relevant factors supported the renewal of the Agreements.
The costs of the services to be provided and profits to be realized by the Adviser and its affiliates from their respective relationships with the Funds. The Trustees considered the fees charged to the Funds for advisory and administrative services as well as the total expense levels of the Funds. This information included comparisons (provided both by management and by an independent third party) of the Funds’ advisory fees and total expense levels to those of their peer groups and information about the advisory fees charged by the Adviser to comparable accounts (such as institutional separate accounts), as well as information about differences in such fees and the reasons for any such differences. In considering the fees charged to comparable accounts, the Trustees considered, among other things, management’s representations about the differences between managing mutual funds as compared to other types of accounts, including the additional resources required to effectively manage mutual fund assets, the greater regulatory costs associated with the management of such assets, and the entrepreneurial, regulatory and other risks associated with sponsoring and managing mutual funds. In evaluating each Fund’s advisory fee, the Trustees also took into account the demands, complexity and quality of the investment management of such Fund, as well as the need for the Adviser to offer competitive compensation and the potential need to expend additional resources to the extent the Fund grows in size. The Trustees considered that over the past several years, management had demonstrated its intention to have competitive fee levels by making recommendations regarding reductions in advisory fee rates, implementation of advisory fee breakpoints and the institution of advisory fee waivers and expense limitations for various funds in the fund family. They noted that both of the Funds have expense limitations in place, and they considered the amounts waived or reimbursed by the Adviser for the Funds under their expense limitation agreements. They further noted that management had proposed to reduce the expense limitation for Loomis Sayles Bond Fund on all share classes, effective as of July 1, 2024. The Board also considered that the fee and expense information reflected information as of a certain date and that historical asset levels may differ from current asset levels, particularly in a period of market volatility.
The Trustees noted that the Funds had total advisory fee rates that were above the median of a peer group of funds. In this regard, the Trustees considered the factors that management believed justified such a relatively higher advisory fee rate, including: (1) that the advisory fee was only one basis point higher than the median of the peer group of funds for Loomis Sayles Bond Fund; (2) that the advisory fee was only three basis points higher than the median of the peer group of funds for Loomis Sayles Investment Grade Fixed Income Fund; (3) that management
had proposed to reduce the expense limitation of Loomis Sayles Bond Fund , which is expected to reduce the Fund’s effective advisory fee rate; and (4) that Loomis Sayles Investment Grade Fixed Income Fund had experienced top quartile performance over multiple time periods ended December 31, 2023.
The Trustees also considered the compensation directly or indirectly received by the Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Funds. The Trustees reviewed information provided by management as to the profitability of the Adviser’s and its affiliates’ relationships with the Funds, and information about how expenses are determined and allocated for purposes of profitability calculations. They also reviewed information provided by management about the effect of distribution costs and changes in asset levels on Adviser profitability, including information regarding resources spent on distribution activities. When reviewing profitability, the Trustees also considered information about court cases in which adviser compensation or profitability were issues, the performance of the Funds, the expense levels of the Funds, whether the Adviser had implemented breakpoints and/or expense limitations with respect to such Funds and the overall profit margin of Natixis Investment Managers, LLC compared to that of certain other investment managers for which such data was available. The Board also noted the competitive nature of the global asset management industry.
After reviewing these and related factors, the Trustees concluded, within the context of their overall conclusions regarding each of the Agreements, that the advisory fee charged to each of the Funds was fair and reasonable, and that the costs of these services generally and the related profitability of the Adviser and its affiliates in respect of their relationships with the Funds supported the renewal of the Agreements.
Economies of Scale. The Trustees considered the existence of any economies of scale in the provision of services by the Adviser and whether those economies are shared with the Funds through breakpoints in their investment advisory fees or other means, such as expense limitations. The Trustees also considered management’s explanation of the factors that are taken into account with respect to the implementation of breakpoints in investment advisory fees or expense limitations, which reduced the total expenses borne by shareholders of certain Funds. With respect to economies of scale, the Trustees noted that the Loomis Sayles Bond Fund had breakpoints in its advisory fee and that each of the Funds was subject to an expense limitation. The Trustees also considered management’s proposal to reduce the expense limitation for Loomis Sayles Bond Fund. In considering these issues, the Trustees also took note of the costs of the services provided (both on an absolute and on a relative basis) and the profitability to the Adviser and its affiliates of their relationships with the Funds, as discussed above. The Trustees also considered that the Funds have benefitted from the substantial reinvestment the Adviser has made into its business.
After reviewing these and related factors, the Trustees concluded, within the context of their overall conclusions regarding each of the Agreements, that the extent to which economies of scale were shared with the Funds supported the renewal of the Agreements.
The Trustees also considered other factors, which included but were not limited to the following:
• The effect of various factors and recent market and economic events, such as recent market volatility, geopolitical instability, aggressive domestic and foreign central bank policies, and adverse developments affecting the financial services industry generally, as applicable, on the performance, asset levels and expense ratios of each Fund.
• Whether each Fund has operated in accordance with its investment objective and the Fund’s record of compliance with its investment restrictions, and the compliance programs of the Funds and the Adviser. They also considered the compliance-related resources the Adviser and its affiliates were providing to the Funds.
• So-called “fallout benefits” to the Adviser, such as the engagement of affiliates of the Adviser to provide distribution and administrative services to the Funds, and the benefits of research made available to the Adviser by reason of brokerage commissions (if any) generated by the Funds’ securities transactions. The Trustees considered the possible conflicts of interest associated with these fallout and other benefits, and the reporting, disclosure and other processes in place to disclose and monitor such possible conflicts of interest.
• The Trustees’ review and discussion of the Funds’ advisory arrangements in prior years, and management’s record of responding to Trustee concerns raised during the year and in prior years.
Based on their evaluation of all factors that they deemed to be material, including those factors described above, and assisted by the advice of independent counsel, the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, concluded that each of the existing Agreements should be continued through June 30, 2025.
