HIGHLIGHTS
The
Corporate
Income
Fund
underperformed
its
benchmark
and
its
Lipper
peer
group
average
over
the
12-month
period
ended
May
31,
2023.
Sector
allocation
and
yield
curve
positioning
weighed
on
relative
results,
while
security
selection
contributed.
Portfolio
positioning
reflects
our
generally
constructive
outlook
on
technical
conditions,
primarily
due
to
our
expectation
of
strong
demand
from
yield-seeking
buyers,
balanced
against
concerns
related
to
macro
risks
and
our
expectations
for
deteriorating
credit
fundamentals.
Following
the
resolution
of
the
debt
ceiling
standoff,
we
believe
that
there
is
potential
for
market
liquidity
to
deteriorate
as
the
government
rebuilds
its
Treasury
General
Account
balance,
a
move
that
we
believe
could
drain
reserves
from
the
banking
system
and
contribute
to
further
volatility.
Though
remaining
cautious
for
now,
we
anticipate
an
opportunity
to
add
risk
when
appropriate.

Commentary
Dear
Shareholder
Major
global
stock
and
bond
indexes
produced
mixed
returns
during
your
fund’s
fiscal
year,
the
12-month
period
ended
May
31,
2023.
Rising
interest
rates
weighed
on
returns
in
the
first
half
of
the
period,
but
many
sectors
rebounded
over
the
past
six
months
as
growth
remained
positive
in
the
major
economies
and
corporate
earnings
results
came
in
stronger
than
expected.
For
the
12-month
period,
growth
stocks
outperformed
value
shares,
and
developed
market
shares
generally
outpaced
their
emerging
market
counterparts.
In
the
U.S.,
the
Russell
1000
Growth
Index
and
Nasdaq
Composite
Index
performed
the
best.
Most
currencies
weakened
versus
the
U.S.
dollar
over
the
period,
which
weighed
on
returns
for
U.S.
investors
in
international
securities.
Within
the
S&P
500
Index,
the
information
technology
sector
had,
by
far,
the
strongest
returns.
Big
tech
companies
rebounded
strongly
at
the
start
of
2023,
helped
in
part
by
growing
investor
enthusiasm
for
artificial
intelligence
applications.
Meanwhile,
falling
prices
for
various
commodities
weighed
on
returns
for
the
materials
and
energy
sectors,
and
turmoil
in
the
banking
sector,
which
included
the
failure
of
three
large
regional
banks,
hurt
the
financials
segment.
Real
estate
stocks
also
came
under
pressure
amid
concerns
about
the
ability
of
some
commercial
property
owners
to
refinance
their
debt.
Cheaper
oil
contributed
to
slowing
inflation
during
the
period,
although
core
inflation
readings—which
exclude
volatile
food
and
energy
prices—remained
stubbornly
high.
April’s
consumer
price
index
data
(the
latest
available
in
our
reporting
period)
showed
a
headline
inflation
rate
of
4.9%
on
a
12-month
basis,
down
from
more
than
8%
at
the
start
of
the
period
but
still
well
above
the
Fed’s
long-term
2%
inflation
target.
In
response
to
persistent
inflation,
the
Fed
raised
its
short-term
lending
benchmark
rate
from
around
1.00%
at
the
start
of
the
period
to
a
range
of
5.00%
to
5.25%
by
the
end
of
May,
the
highest
level
since
2007.
However,
Fed
officials
have
recently
suggested
that
they
might
soon
be
ready
to
pause
additional
rate
hikes
as
they
wait
to
see
how
the
economy
is
progressing.
Bond
yields
increased
considerably
across
the
U.S.
Treasury
yield
curve
as
the
Fed
tightened
monetary
policy,
with
the
yield
on
the
benchmark
10-year
note
climbing
from
2.85%
at
the
start
of
the
period
to
3.64%
at
the
end
of
May.
Significant
inversions
in
the
yield
curve,
which
are
often
considered
a
warning
sign
of
a
coming
recession,
occurred
during
the
period
as
shorter-maturity
Treasuries
experienced
the
largest
yield
increases.
At
the
end
of
May,
the
yield
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Corporate
Income
Fund
on
the
three-month
Treasury
bill
was
188
basis
points
(1.88
percentage
point)
higher
than
the
yield
on
the
10-year
Treasury
note.
Increasing
yields
led
to
weak
results
across
most
of
the
fixed
income
market,
although
high
yield
bonds,
which
are
less
sensitive
to
rising
rates,
held
up
relatively
well.
Global
economies
and
markets
showed
surprising
resilience
in
recent
months,
but,
moving
into
the
second
half
of
2023,
we
believe
investors
could
face
potential
challenges.
The
economic
impact
of
the
Fed’s
rate
hikes
has
yet
to
be
fully
felt
in
the
economy,
and
while
the
regional
banking
turmoil
appears
to
have
been
contained
by
the
swift
actions
of
regulators,
it
could
continue
to
have
an
impact
on
credit
conditions.
Moreover,
the
market
consensus
still
seems
to
forecast
a
global
recession
starting
later
this
year
or
in
early
2024,
although
it
could
be
a
mild
downturn.
We
believe
this
environment
makes
skilled
active
management
a
critical
tool
for
identifying
risks
and
opportunities,
and
our
investment
teams
will
continue
to
use
fundamental
research
to
identify
securities
that
can
add
value
to
your
portfolio
over
the
long
term.

you

FUND
COMMENTARY
How
did
the
fund
perform
in
the
past 12
months?
The
Corporate
Income
Fund
returned
-2.42%
in
the
12
months
ended
May
31,
2023,
and
underperformed
its
benchmark,
the
Bloomberg
U.S.
Corporate
Investment
Grade
Bond
Index,
as
well
as
its
Lipper
peer
group
average.
(Performance
for
the
I
and
Z
Class
shares
will
vary
due
to
different
fee
structures.
Past
performance
cannot
guarantee
future
results.
)
What
factors
influenced
the
fund’s
performance?
Investment-grade
corporate
bonds
declined
in
value
amid
rising
yields
and
macroeconomic
uncertainty.
While
Treasuries
experienced
notable
volatility
caused
by
shifts
in
market
expectations
for
monetary
policy,
Treasury
yields
ultimately
rose
broadly
across
the
yield
curve—with
yields
on
Treasury
bills
and
shorter-maturity
Treasury
notes
increasing
most
prominently—as
the
Federal
Reserve
continued
to
tighten
monetary
policy.
Yields
on
investment-grade
corporate
bonds
followed
Treasury
yields
higher
over
the
reporting
period,
which
hurt
total
returns.
Along
with
rising
yields,
varying
macroeconomic
sentiment
also
impacted
investment-grade
corporate
bonds
over
the
one-year
period.
Most
notably,
the
collapse
of
two
U.S.
regional
banks
in
March
2023
sent
corporate
credit
spreads
significantly
wider.
Credit
spreads
retraced
much
of
this
widening
by
period-end,
ending
the
period
slightly
wider
than
where
they
began.
Despite
some
widening,
the
income
generated
through
coupon
payments
helped
corporate
bonds
post
positive
excess
returns.
(Credit
spreads
are
a
measure
of
the
additional
yield
offered
by
bonds
that
have
credit
risk
compared
with
U.S.
Treasuries
with
similar
maturities.)

Sector
allocations
hindered
relative
results
in
aggregate,
dragged
lower
by
underweight
allocations
to
the
capital
goods
and
technology
sectors.
Within
the
sectors,
our
underweights
to
long
duration
corporate
bonds
weighed
on
relative
results
as
the
long
duration
bonds
performed
better
than
expected
alongside
support
from
yield-seeking
buyers.
Interest
rate
management
also
detracted.
The
portfolio’s
neutral
to
modestly
long
average
duration
profile
hindered
performance
relative
to
the
benchmark
alongside
a
broad-based
rise
in
U.S.
Treasury
yields.
Our
duration
stance
also
hurt
performance
relative
to
peers,
as
a
sizable
portion
of
our
peers
have
a
lower-duration
benchmark
or
are
structurally
lower
duration
than
we
are.
Regarding
yield
curve
positioning,
an
overweight
to
the
five-year
key
rate
held
back
relative
results
alongside
a
rise
in
the
five-year
Treasury
note
yield
coupled
with
the
negative
performance
impact
of
cost
of
carry
(cost
of
ownership)
in
that
portion
of
the
curve.
However,
a
modest
underweight
in
the
front
end
and
a
slight
overweight
to
the
10-year
portion
of
the
curve
made
up
for
some
relative
losses
as
the
yield
curve
flattened—and,
in
certain
portions,
inverted—
over
the
reporting
period.
Credit
selection
contributed
in
aggregate,
led
upward
by
positioning
in
the
banking
sector.
An
underweight
to
regional
banks,
with
no
exposure
to
Silicon
Valley
Bank
or
Signature
Bank,
as
well
as
our
overweight
exposure
to
larger
banks
were
beneficial.
Within
our
allocation
to
larger
banks,
we
had
no
exposure
to
Credit
Suisse
as
the
issuer’s
spreads
widened
significantly
in
March
2023,
but
we
added
positions
in
the
wake
of
this
initial
weakness.
The
positions
were
in
senior
unsecured
bonds
and
not
Additional
Tier
1
bonds.
Bonds
issued
by
large
U.S.
banks,
including
Citigroup,
Bank
of
America,
JPMorgan
Chase,
and
Goldman
Sachs,
rallied
as
the
collapse
of
two
U.S.
regional
banks
prompted
a
surge
of
deposits
moving
from
regional
banks
to
larger
banks.
A
bond
issued
by
Standard
Chartered,
an
emerging
markets-
focused
bank
based
in
the
UK,
also
outperformed
on
the
back
of
merger
and
acquisition
rumors
and
China’s
economic
reopening.
Aside
from
the
banking
sector,
credit
selection
within
the
electric
utility
and
consumer
noncyclical
sectors
further
supported
relative
results.

While
we
are
primarily
a
cash
bond
manager,
we
occasionally
use
derivatives,
including
interest
rate
futures
and
credit
default
swaps,
in
our
strategy
for
positioning
and
to
hedge
overall
portfolio
risk.
We
may
also
use
derivatives
when
we
want
to
gain
exposure
to
a
specific
company
or
to
have
a
positioning
on
the
yield
curve
that
is
more
efficient
than
using
cash
bonds.
Over
the
last
12
months,
our
use
of
derivatives—specifically,
credit
and
interest
rate
derivatives—were
modest
detractors
from
absolute
performance.
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Corporate
Income
Fund
How
is
the
fund
positioned?
Portfolio
positioning
reflects
our
generally
constructive
outlook
on
technical
conditions,
primarily
due
to
our
expectation
of
strong
demand
from
yield-
seeking
buyers,
balanced
against
concerns
related
to
macro
risks
and
our
expectations
for
deteriorating
credit
fundamentals.
While
we
do
not
view
credit
spreads
as
overly
compelling
relative
to
long-term
averages,
we
believe
there
are
pockets
of
attractive
value,
as
dispersion
in
the
asset
class
has
picked
up
and
created
more
opportunity
for
alpha.
We
continue
to
see
opportunity
in
high-quality
global
banks
as
pricing
dislocations—which
were
exacerbated
by
turmoil
within
the
sector—have
created
attractive
relative
value
opportunities
within
the
sector
in
our
view.
While
we
plan
to
remain
underweight
regional
banks
relative
to
the
benchmark,
we
have
begun
to
see
opportunities
in
certain
regional
banks
that
we
believe
are
well
positioned
to
navigate
the
current
environment.
Additionally,
we
have
maintained
an
out-of-benchmark
allocation
to
the
securitized
sector.
The
sector
represents
an
opportunity
for
us
to
benefit
from
our
credit
selection
capabilities,
and
we
believe
that
our
positions
have
strong
credit
quality
and
fundamentals.
From
the
standpoint
of
interest
rate
sensitivity,
we’ve
begun
to
bias
the
portfolio’s
duration
longer
than
our
benchmark
and
have
implemented
a
curve-
steepening
posture
with
overweight
exposure
to
the
short-
and
intermediate-term
portions
of
the
curve
while
being
underweight
longer
tenors.
As
growth
slows
and
recession
concerns
grow,
duration
should
return
to
its
role
as
a
hedge
for
credit
risk
in
our
view.
What
is
portfolio
management’s
outlook?
The
reflationary
economic
narrative
seen
in
early
2023
slowed
the
deceleration
of
inflation
to
some
extent.

Core
inflation—including
goods
inflation—has
leveled
off
and
is
the
driving
concern.
This
has
led
to
guidance
from
the
Fed
on
at
least
one
more
rate
hike
this
year.
While
the
timeline
seems
to
have
been
extended,
we
continue
to
believe
that
the
longer
the
Fed
is
forced
to
hold
rates
at
these
levels,
the
higher
the
chances
of
recessionary
conditions
are
in
the
coming
quarters.
Within
our
market,
financials
still
screen
cheaply
relative
to
nonfinancials,
and
the
resolution
of
regional
banking
stress
will
be
key
for
this
relationship
across
valuation
levels
to
normalize.
Amid
regional
bank
stress,
larger

have
been
relative
beneficiaries
in
the
sector,
but
we
don’t
believe
their
credit
spreads
will
normalize
relative
to
industrials
until
regional
banks
stabilize,
likely
through
the
introduction
of
a
new
facility
from
policymakers
or
rate
cuts.
Following
the

we
believe
that
there
is
potential
for
market
liquidity
to
deteriorate
as
the

a
move
that
could
drain

Our

RISKS
OF
INVESTING
IN
FIXED
INCOME
SECURITIES
The
value
of
the
fund’s
investments
may
decrease,
sometimes
rapidly
or
unexpectedly,
due
to
factors
affecting
an
issuer
held
by
the
fund,
particular
industries,
or
the
overall
securities
markets.
The
prices
of,
and
the
income
generated
by,
debt
instruments
held
by
the
fund
may
be
affected
by
changes
in
interest
rates.
The
fund
is
subject
to
prepayment
risks
because
the
principal
on
mortgage-backed
securities,
other
asset-backed
securities,
or
any
debt
instrument
with
an
embedded
call
option
may
be
prepaid
at
any
time,
which
could
reduce
the
security’s
yield
and
market
value.
An
issuer
of
a
debt
instrument
could
suffer
an
adverse
change
in
financial
condition
that
results
in
a
payment
default
(failure
to
make
scheduled
interest
or
principal
payments),
rating
downgrade,
or
inability
to
meet
a
financial
obligation.
Securities
that
are
rated
below
investment
grade
carry
greater
risk
of
default
and

over
the
past
10
fiscal

EXAMPLE
As
a
mutual
fund
shareholder,
you
may
incur
two
types
of
costs:
(1)
transaction
costs,
such
as
redemption
fees
or
sales
loads,
and
(2)
ongoing
costs,
including
management
fees,
distribution
and
service
(12b-1)
fees,
and
other
fund
expenses.
The
following
example
is
intended
to
help
you
understand
your
ongoing
costs
(in
dollars)
of
investing
in
the
fund
and
to
compare
these
costs
with
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
other
mutual
funds.
The
example
is
based
on
an
investment
of
$1,000
invested
at
the
beginning
of
the
most
recent
six-month
period
and
held
for
the
entire
period.
Please
note
that
the
fund
has
three
share
classes:
The
original
share
class
(Investor
Class)
charges
no
distribution
and
service
(12b-1)
fee,
I
Class
shares
are
also
available
to
institutionally
oriented
clients
and
impose
no
12b-1
or
administrative
fee
payment,
and
Z
Class
shares
are
offered
only
to
funds
advised
by
T.
Rowe
Price
and
other
advisory
clients
of
T.
Rowe
Price
or
its
affiliates
that
are
subject
to
a
contractual
fee
for
investment
management
services
and
impose
no
12b-1
fee
or
administrative
fee
payment.
Each
share
class
is
presented

This

because
it

Corporate

Actual
Expenses
The
first
line
of
the
following
table
(Actual)
provides
information
about
actual
account
values
and
expenses
based
on
the
fund’s
actual
returns.
You
may
use
the
information
on
this
line,
together
with
your
account
balance,
to
estimate
the
expenses
that
you
paid
over
the
period.
Simply
divide
your
account
value
by
$1,000
(for
example,
an
$8,600
account
value
divided
by
$1,000
=
8.6),
then
multiply
the
result
by
the
number
on
the
first
line
under
the
heading
“Expenses
Paid
During
Period”
to
estimate
the
expenses
you
paid
on
your
account
during
this
period.
Hypothetical
Example
for
Comparison
Purposes
The
information
on
the
second
line
of
the
table
(Hypothetical)
is
based
on
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
derived
from
the
fund’s
actual
expense
ratio
and
an
assumed
5%
per
year
rate
of
return
before
expenses
(not
the
fund’s
actual
return).
You
may
compare
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
the
fund
with
other
funds
by
contrasting
this
5%
hypothetical
example
and
the
5%
hypothetical
examples
that
appear
in
the
shareholder
reports
of
the
other
funds.
The
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
may
not
be
used
to
estimate
the
actual
ending
account
balance
or
expenses
you
paid
for
the
period.
Note:
T.
Rowe
Price
charges
an
annual
account
service
fee
of
$20,
generally
for
accounts
with
less
than
$10,000.
The
fee
is
waived
for
any
investor
whose
T.
Rowe
Price
mutual
fund
accounts
total
$50,000
or
more;
accounts
electing
to
receive
electronic
delivery
of
account
statements,
transaction
confirmations,
prospectuses,
and
shareholder
reports;
or
accounts
of
an
investor
who
is
a
T.
Rowe
Price
Personal
Services
or
Enhanced
Personal
Services
client
(enrollment
in
these
programs
generally
requires
T.
Rowe
Price
assets
of
at
least
$250,000).
This
fee
is
not
included
in
the
accompanying
table.
If
you
are
subject
to
the
fee,
keep
it
in
mind
when
you
are
estimating
the
ongoing
expenses
of
investing
in
the
fund
and
when
comparing
the
expenses
of
this
fund
with
other
funds.
You
should
also
be
aware
that
the
expenses
shown
in
the
table
highlight
only
your
ongoing
costs
and
do
not
reflect
any
transaction
costs,
such
as
redemption
fees
or
sales
loads.
Therefore,
the
second
line
of
the
table
is
useful
in
comparing
ongoing
costs
only
and
will
not
help
you
determine
the
relative
total
costs
of
owning
different
funds.
To
the
extent
a
fund
charges
transaction
costs,
however,
the
total
cost
of
owning
that
fund
is
higher.

NOTES
TO
FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
T.
Rowe
Price
Corporate
Income
Fund,
Inc.
(the
fund) is
registered
under
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940
(the
1940
Act)
as a
diversified,
open-end
management
investment
company. The
fund
seeks
to
provide
high
income
and
some
capital
growth.
The
fund
has
three classes
of
shares:
the
Corporate
Income
Fund
(Investor
Class),
the
Corporate
Income
Fund–I
Class
(I
Class)
and
the
Corporate
Income
Fund–Z
Class
(Z
Class).
I
Class
shares
require
a
$500,000
initial
investment
minimum,
although
the
minimum
generally
is
waived
or
reduced
for
financial
intermediaries,
eligible
retirement
plans,
and
certain
other
accounts.
Prior
to
November
15,
2021,
the
initial
investment
minimum
was
$1
million
and
was
generally
waived
for
financial
intermediaries,
eligible
retirement
plans,
and
other
certain
accounts.
As
a
result
of
the
reduction
in
the
I
Class
minimum,
certain
assets
transferred
from
the
Investor
Class
to
the
I
Class.
This
transfer
of
shares
from
Investor
Class
to
I
Class
is
reflected
in
the
Statement
of
Changes
in
Net
Assets
within
the
Capital
shares
transactions
as
Shares
redeemed
and
Shares
sold,
respectively.
The
Z
Class
is
only
available
to
funds
advised
by
T.
Rowe
Price
Associates,
Inc.
and
its
affiliates
and
other
clients
that
are
subject
to
a
contractual
fee
for
investment
management
services. Each
class
has
exclusive
voting
rights
on
matters
related
solely
to
that
class;
separate
voting
rights
on
matters
that
relate
to
all classes;
and,
in
all
other
respects,
the
same
rights
and
obligations
as
the
other
classes.

SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
Basis
of
Preparation
The fund
is
an
investment
company
and
follows
accounting
and
reporting
guidance
in
the
Financial
Accounting
Standards
Board
(FASB)
Accounting
Standards
Codification
Topic
946
(ASC
946).
The
accompanying
financial
statements
were
prepared
in
accordance
with
accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
of
America
(GAAP),
including,
but
not
limited
to,
ASC
946.
GAAP
requires
the
use
of
estimates
made
by
management.
Management
believes
that
estimates
and
valuations
are
appropriate;
however,
actual
results
may
differ
from
those
estimates,
and
the
valuations
reflected
in
the
accompanying
financial
statements
may
differ
from
the
value
ultimately
realized
upon
sale
or
maturity.
Investment
Transactions,
Investment
Income,
and
Distributions
Investment
transactions
are
accounted
for
on
the
trade
date
basis.
Income
and
expenses
are
recorded
on
the
accrual
basis.
Realized
gains
and
losses
are
reported
on
the
identified
cost
basis.
Premiums
and
discounts
on
debt
securities
are
amortized
for
financial
reporting
purposes.
Paydown
gains
and
losses
are
recorded
as
an
adjustment
to
interest
income.
Income
tax-related
interest
and
penalties,
if
incurred,
are

tax
expense.
Dividends
received
from other
investment
companies are
reflected
as
dividend
income;
capital
gain
distributions
are
reflected
as
realized
gain/loss.
Dividend
income and
capital
gain
distributions
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Non-cash
dividends,
if
any,
are
recorded
at
the
fair
market
value
of
the
asset
received.
Proceeds
from
litigation
payments,
if
any,
are
included
in
either
net
realized
gain
(loss)
or
change
in
net
unrealized
gain/loss
from
securities.
Distributions
to
shareholders
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Income
distributions,
if
any, are
declared
by
each
class daily
and
paid
monthly.
A
capital
gain
distribution,
if
any, may
also
be
declared
and
paid
by
the
fund
annually.
Currency
Translation
Assets,
including
investments,
and
liabilities
denominated
in
foreign
currencies
are
translated
into
U.S.
dollar
values
each
day
at
the
prevailing
exchange
rate,
using
the
mean
of
the
bid
and
asked
prices
of
such
currencies
against
U.S.
dollars
as
provided
by
an
outside
pricing
service.
Purchases
and
sales
of
securities,
income,
and
expenses
are
translated
into
U.S.
dollars
at
the
prevailing
exchange
rate
on
the
respective
date
of
such
transaction.
The
effect
of
changes
in
foreign
currency
exchange
rates
on
realized
and
unrealized
security
gains
and
losses
is
not
bifurcated
from
the
portion
attributable
to
changes
in
market
prices.

Shareholder
servicing,
prospectus,
and
shareholder
report
expenses
incurred
by
each
class
are
charged
directly
to
the
class
to
which
they
relate.
Expenses
common
to
all
classes
and
investment
income
are
allocated
to
the
classes
based
upon
the
relative
daily
net
assets
of
each
class’s
settled
shares;
realized
and
unrealized
gains
and
losses
are
allocated
based
upon
the
relative
daily
net
assets
of
each
class’s
outstanding
shares.
Capital
Transactions
Each
investor’s
interest
in
the
net
assets
of the
fund
is
represented
by
fund
shares. The
fund’s
net
asset
value
(NAV)
per
share
is
computed
at
the
close
of
the
New
York
Stock
Exchange
(NYSE),
normally
4
p.m.
ET,
each
day
the
NYSE
is
open
for
business.
However,
the
NAV
per
share
may
be
calculated
at
a
time
other
than
the
normal
close
of
the
NYSE
if
trading
on
the
NYSE
is
restricted,
if
the
NYSE
closes
earlier,
or
as
may
be
permitted
by
the
SEC.
Purchases
and
redemptions
of
fund
shares
are
transacted
at
the
next-computed
NAV
per
share,
after
receipt

VALUATION
Fair
Value
The
fund’s
financial
instruments
are
valued
at
the
close
of
the
NYSE
and
are
reported
at
fair
value,
which
GAAP
defines
as
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. The fund’s
Board
of
Directors
(the
Board)
has
designated
T.
Rowe
Price
Associates,
Inc.
as
the
fund’s
valuation
designee
(Valuation
Designee).
Subject
to
oversight
by
the
Board,
the
Valuation
Designee
performs
the
following
functions
in
performing
fair
value
determinations:
assesses
and
manages
valuation
risks;
establishes
and
applies
fair
value
methodologies;
tests
fair
value
methodologies;
and
evaluates
pricing
vendors
and
pricing
agents.
The
duties
and
responsibilities
of
the
Valuation
Designee
are
performed
by
its
Valuation
Committee. The
Valuation
Designee provides
periodic
reporting
to
the
Board
on
valuation
matters.
Various
valuation
techniques
and
inputs
are
used
to
determine
the
fair
value
of
financial
instruments.
GAAP
establishes
the
following
fair
value
hierarchy
that
categorizes
the
inputs
used
to
measure
fair
value:
Level
1
–
quoted
prices
(unadjusted)
in
active
markets
for
identical
financial
instruments
that
the
fund
can
access
at
the
reporting
date
Level
2
–
inputs
other
than
Level
1
quoted
prices
that
are
observable,
either
directly
or
indirectly
(including,
but
not
limited
to,
quoted
prices
for
similar
financial
instruments
in
active
markets,
quoted
prices
for
identical
or
similar
financial
instruments
in
inactive
markets,
interest
rates
and
yield
curves,
implied
volatilities,
and
credit
spreads)
Level
3
–
unobservable
inputs
(including
the Valuation
Designee’s assumptions
in
determining
fair
value)
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Corporate
Income
Fund
Observable
inputs
are
developed
using
market
data,
such
as
publicly
available
information
about
actual
events
or
transactions,
and
reflect
the
assumptions
that
market
participants
would
use
to
price
the
financial
instrument.
Unobservable
inputs
are
those
for
which
market
data
are
not
available
and
are
developed
using
the
best
information
available
about
the
assumptions
that
market
participants
would
use
to
price
the
financial
instrument.
GAAP
requires
valuation
techniques
to
maximize
the
use
of
relevant
observable
inputs
and
minimize
the
use
of
unobservable
inputs.
When
multiple
inputs
are
used
to
derive
fair
value,
the
financial
instrument
is
assigned
to
the
level
within
the
fair
value
hierarchy
based
on
the
lowest-level
input
that
is
significant
to
the
fair
value
of
the
financial
instrument.
Input
levels
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risk
or
liquidity
associated
with
financial
instruments
at
that
level
but
rather
the
degree
of
judgment
used
in
determining
those
values.
Valuation
Techniques
Debt
securities
generally
are
traded
in
the over-the-counter
(OTC)
market
and
are
valued
at
prices
furnished
by
independent
pricing
services
or
by
broker
dealers
who
make
markets
in
such
securities.
When
valuing
securities,
the
independent
pricing
services
consider
factors
such
as,
but
not
limited
to,
the
yield
or
price
of
bonds
of
comparable
quality,
coupon,
maturity,
and
type,
as
well
as
prices
quoted
by
dealers
who
make
markets
in
such
securities.
Investments
in
mutual
funds
are
valued
at
the
mutual
fund’s
closing
NAV
per
share
on
the
day
of
valuation.
Listed
options,
and
OTC
options
with
a
listed
equivalent,
are
valued
at
the
mean
of
the
closing
bid
and
asked
prices
and
exchange-traded
options
on
futures
contracts
are
valued
at
closing
settlement
prices.
Futures
contracts
are
valued
at
closing
settlement
prices.
Swaps
are
valued
at
prices
furnished
by
an
independent
pricing
service
or
independent
swap
dealers.
Assets
and
liabilities
other
than
financial
instruments,
including
short-term
receivables
and
payables,
are
carried
at
cost,
or
estimated
realizable
value,
if
less,
which
approximates
fair
value.
Investments
for
which
market
quotations are
not
readily
available
or
deemed
unreliable
are
valued
at
fair
value
as
determined
in
good
faith
by
the
Valuation
Designee.
The
Valuation
Designee
has
adopted
methodologies
for
determining
the
fair
value
of
investments
for
which
market
quotations
are
not
readily
available
or
deemed
unreliable,
including
the
use
of
other
pricing
sources.
Factors
used
in
determining
fair
value
vary
by
type
of
investment
and
may
include
market
or
investment
specific
considerations.
The
Valuation
Designee typically
will
afford
greatest
weight
to
actual
prices
in
arm’s
length
transactions,
to
the
extent
they
represent
orderly
transactions
between
market
participants,
transaction
information
can
be
reliably
obtained,
and
prices
are
deemed
representative
of
fair
value.
However,
the
Valuation
Designee may
also
consider
other
valuation
methods
such
as
market-based
valuation
multiples;
a
discount
or
premium
from
market
value
of
a
similar,
freely
traded
security
of
the
same
issuer;
discounted
cash
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Corporate
Income
Fund
flows;
yield
to
maturity;
or
some
combination.
Fair
value
determinations
are
reviewed
on
a
regular
basis.
Because
any
fair
value
determination
involves
a
significant
amount
of
judgment,
there
is
a
degree
of
subjectivity
inherent
in
such
pricing
decisions. Fair
value
prices
determined
by
the
Valuation
Designee could
differ
from
those
of
other
market
participants,
and
it
is
possible
that
the
fair
value
determined
for
a
security
may
be
materially
different
from
the
value
that
could
be
realized
upon
the
sale
of
that
security.

DERIVATIVE
INSTRUMENTS
During
the
year ended
May
31,
2023,
the
fund
invested
in
derivative
instruments.
As
defined
by
GAAP,
a
derivative
is
a
financial
instrument
whose
value
is
derived
from
an
underlying
security
price,
foreign
exchange
rate,
interest
rate,
index
of
prices
or
rates,
or
other
variable;
it
requires
little
or
no
initial
investment
and
permits
or
requires
net
settlement.
The
fund
invests
in
derivatives
only
if
the
expected
risks
and
rewards
are
consistent
with
its
investment
objectives,
policies,
and
overall
risk
profile,
as
described
in
its
prospectus
and
Statement
of
Additional
Information.
The
fund
may
use
derivatives
for
a
variety
of
purposes
and
may
use
them
to
establish
both
long
and
short
positions
within
the
fund’s
portfolio.
Potential
uses
include
to
hedge
against
declines
in
principal
value,
increase
yield,
invest
in
an
asset
with
greater
efficiency
and
at
a
lower
cost
than
is
possible
through
direct
investment,
to
enhance
return,
or
to
adjust
portfolio
duration
and
credit
exposure.
The
risks
associated
with
the
use
of
derivatives
are
different
from,
and
potentially
much
greater
than,
the
risks
associated
with
investing
directly
in
the
instruments
on
which
the
derivatives
are
based.
The
fund
values
its
derivatives
at
fair
value
and
recognizes
changes
in
fair
value
currently
in
its
results
of
operations.
Accordingly,
the
fund
does
not
follow
hedge
accounting,
even
for
derivatives
employed
as
economic
hedges.
Generally,
the
fund
accounts
for
its
derivatives
on
a
gross
basis.
It
does
not
offset
the
fair
value
of
derivative
liabilities
against
the
fair
value
of
derivative
assets
on
its
financial
statements,
nor
does
it
offset
the
fair
value
of
derivative
instruments
against
the
right
to
reclaim
or
obligation
to
return
collateral.
The
following
table
summarizes
the
fair
value
of
the
fund’s
derivative
instruments
held
as

May

Corporate
Income
Fund
Counterparty
Risk
and
Collateral
The
fund
invests
in
derivatives
in
various
markets,
which
expose
it
to
differing
levels
of
counterparty
risk.
Counterparty
risk
on
exchange-
traded
and
centrally
cleared
derivative
contracts,
such
as
futures,
exchange-traded
options,
and
centrally
cleared
swaps,
is
minimal
because
the
clearinghouse
provides
protection
against
counterparty
defaults.
For
futures
and
centrally
cleared
swaps,
the
fund
is
required
to
deposit
collateral
in
an
amount
specified
by
the
clearinghouse
and
the
clearing
firm
(margin
requirement),
and
the
margin
requirement
must
be
maintained
over
the
life
of
the
contract.
Each
clearinghouse
and
clearing
firm,
in
its
sole
discretion,
may
adjust
the
margin
requirements
applicable
to
the
fund.
Derivatives,
such
as
non-cleared bilateral
swaps,
forward
currency
exchange
contracts,
and
OTC
options,
that
are
transacted
and
settle
directly
with
a
counterparty
(bilateral
derivatives)
may
expose
the
fund
to
greater
counterparty
risk.
To
mitigate
this
risk,
the
fund
has
entered
into
master
netting
arrangements
(MNAs)
with
certain
counterparties
that
permit
net
settlement
under
specified
conditions
and,
for
certain
counterparties,
also
require
the
exchange
of
collateral
to
cover
mark-to-market
exposure.
MNAs
may
be
in
the
form
of
International
Swaps
and
Derivatives
Association
master
agreements
(ISDAs)
or
foreign
exchange
letter
agreements
(FX
letters).
MNAs
provide
the
ability
to
offset
amounts
the
fund
owes
a
counterparty
against
amounts
the
counterparty
owes
the
fund
(net
settlement).
Both
ISDAs
and
FX
letters
generally
allow
termination
of
transactions
and
net
settlement
upon
the
occurrence
of
contractually
specified
events,
such
as
failure
to
pay
or
bankruptcy.
In
addition,
ISDAs
specify
other
events,
the
occurrence
of
which
would
allow
one
of
the
parties
to
terminate.
For
example,
a
downgrade
in
credit
rating
of
a
counterparty
below
a
specified
rating
would
allow
the
fund
to
terminate,
while
a
decline
in
the
fund’s
net
assets
of
more
than
a
specified
percentage
would
allow
the
counterparty
to
terminate.
Upon
termination,
all
transactions
with
that
counterparty
would
be
liquidated

ISDAs
typically
include
collateral
agreements
whereas
FX
letters
do
not.
Collateral
requirements
are
determined
daily
based
on
the
net
aggregate
unrealized
gain
or
loss
on
all
bilateral
derivatives
with
a
counterparty,
subject
to
minimum
transfer
amounts
that
typically
range
from
$100,000
to
$250,000.
Any
additional
collateral
required
due
to
changes
in
security
values
is
typically
transferred
the
next
business
day.
Collateral
may
be
in
the
form
of
cash
or
debt
securities
issued
by
the
U.S.
government
or
related
agencies,
although
other
securities
may
be
used
depending
on
the
terms
outlined
in
the
applicable
MNA.
Cash
posted
by
the
fund
is
reflected
as
cash
deposits
in
the
accompanying
financial
statements
and
generally
is
restricted
from
withdrawal
by
the
fund;
securities
posted
by
the
fund
are
so
noted
in
the
accompanying
Portfolio
of
Investments;
both
remain
in
the
fund’s
assets.
Collateral
pledged
by
counterparties
is
not
included
in
the
fund’s
assets
because
the
fund
does
not
obtain
effective
control
over
those
assets.
For
bilateral
derivatives,
collateral
posted
or
received
by
the
fund
is
held
in
a
segregated
account
at
the
fund’s
custodian.
While
typically
not
sold
in
the
same
manner
as
equity
or
fixed
income
securities,
exchange-traded
or
centrally
cleared
derivatives
may
be
closed
out
only
on
the
exchange
or
clearinghouse
where
the
contracts
were
cleared,
and
OTC
and
bilateral
derivatives
may
be
unwound
with
counterparties
or
transactions
assigned
to
other
counterparties
to
allow
the
fund
to
exit
the
transaction.
This
ability
is
subject
to
the
liquidity
of
underlying
positions. As
of
May
31,
2023,
no
collateral had
been
pledged
or
posted
by
the
fund
to

for
bilateral
derivatives. As

collateral
pledged
by
counterparties
to

fund
for
bilateral
derivatives
consisted
of
securities
valued
at

valued
at $1,673,000
had

The
fund
is
subject
to interest
rate
risk in
the
normal
course
of
pursuing
its
investment
objectives
and
uses
futures
contracts
to
help
manage
such
risk.
The

may
enter
into
futures

to
manage
exposure
to

of
a
target
market;
to
enhance
income;
as
a
cash

tool;
or
to
adjust
portfolio

and
credit
exposure. A
futures
contract
provides
for
the
future
sale
by
one
party
and
purchase
by
another
of
a
specified
amount
of
a
specific
underlying
financial
instrument
at
an
agreed-upon
price,
date,
time,
and

The
fund
currently
invests
only
in
exchange-traded
futures,
which
generally
are
standardized
as
to
maturity
date,
underlying
financial
instrument,
and
other
contract
terms.
Payments
are
made

by
the

Swaps
The

is
subject
to
credit

the
normal
course
of
pursuing
its
investment
objectives
and
uses
swap
contracts
to
help
manage
such
risk.
The
fund
may
use
swaps
in
an
effort
to
manage
both
long
and
short
exposure
to
changes
in
interest
rates,
inflation

to
adjust

securities;
to
serve
as
a

tool;
or
to
adjust
portfolio

Swap
agreements
can
be
settled
either
directly
with
the
counterparty
(bilateral
swap)
or
through
a
central
clearinghouse
(centrally
cleared
swap).
Fluctuations
in
the

of
a
contract
are
reflected
in
unrealized
gain
or

and
are

to
realized
gain

upon
contract
termination
or
cash
settlement.
Net

receipts
or
payments
required
by
a
contract
increase
or
decrease,
respectively,
the

contract
until
the
contractual
payment
date,
at
which
time
such
amounts
are
reclassified
from
unrealized
to
realized
gain
or
loss.
For
bilateral
swaps,
cash
payments
are
made
or
received
by
the
fund
on
a
periodic
basis
in
accordance
with
contract
terms;
unrealized
gain
on

are

assets
and
unrealized

on
contracts
and
premiums
received
are
reflected
as

on
the
accompanying

of
Assets

For
bilateral
swaps,
premiums
paid
or

are
amortized
over
the
life
of
the
swap
and
are

received
by
the

in
the
value
of
the
contract
(variation
margin).
Accordingly,
the

Credit
default
swaps
are
agreements
where
one
party
(the
protection
buyer)
agrees
to
make
periodic
payments
to
another
party
(the
protection
seller)
in
exchange
for
protection
against
specified
credit
events,
such
as
certain
defaults
and
bankruptcies
related
to
an
underlying
credit
instrument,
or
issuer
or
index
of
such
instruments.
Upon
occurrence
of
a
specified
credit
event,
the
protection
seller
is
required
to
pay
the
buyer
the
difference
between
the
notional
amount
of
the
swap
and
the
value
of
the
underlying
credit,
either
in
the
form
of
a
net
cash
settlement
or
by
paying
the
gross
notional
amount
and
accepting
delivery
of
the
relevant
underlying
credit.
For
credit
default
swaps
where
the
underlying
credit
is
an
index,
a
specified
credit
event
may
affect
all
or
individual
underlying
securities
included
in
the
index
and
will
be
settled
based
upon
the
relative
weighting
of
the
affected
underlying
security(ies)
within
the
index. Generally,
the
payment
risk
for
the
seller
of
protection
is
inversely
related
to
the
current
market
price
or
credit
rating
of
the
underlying
credit
or
the

value
of
the
contract
relative
to
the
notional
amount,
which
are
indicators
of
the
markets’
valuation
of
credit
quality.
As
of
May
31,
2023,
the
notional
amount
of
protection
sold
by
the
fund
totaled $8,622,000

OTHER
INVESTMENT
TRANSACTIONS
Consistent
with
its
investment
objective,
the
fund
engages
in
the
following
practices
to
manage
exposure
to
certain
risks
and/or
to
enhance
performance.
The
investment
objective,
policies,
program,
and
risk
factors
of
the
fund
are
described
more
fully
in
the
fund’s
prospectus
and
Statement
of
Additional
Information.
Restricted
Securities
The
fund
invests
in
securities
that
are
subject
to
legal
or
contractual
restrictions
on
resale.
Prompt
sale
of
such
securities
at
an
acceptable
price
may
be
difficult
and
may
involve
substantial
delays
and
additional
costs.
LIBOR
Transition
The fund
may
invest
in
instruments
that
are
tied
to
reference
rates,
including
LIBOR.
Over
the
course
of
the
last
several
years,
global
regulators
have
indicated
an
intent
to
phase
out
the
use
of
LIBOR
and
similar
interbank
offered
rates
(IBOR). There
remains
uncertainty
regarding
the
future
utilization
of
LIBOR
and
the
nature
of
any
replacement
rate.
Any
potential
effects
of
the
transition
away
from
LIBOR
on
the fund,
or
on
certain
instruments
in
which
the fund
invests,
cannot
yet
be
determined.
The
transition
process
may
result
in,
among
other
things,
an
increase
in
volatility
or
illiquidity
of
markets
for
instruments
that
currently
rely
on
LIBOR,
a
reduction
in
the
value
of
certain
instruments
held
by
the fund,
or
a
reduction
in
the
effectiveness
of
related
fund
transactions
such
as
hedges.
Any
such
effects
could
have
an
adverse
impact
on
the fund's
performance.
Securities
Lending
The fund
may
lend
its
securities
to
approved
borrowers
to
earn
additional
income.
Its
securities
lending
activities
are
administered
by
a
lending
agent
in
accordance
with
a
securities
lending
agreement.
Security
loans
generally
do
not
have
stated
maturity
dates,
and
the
fund
may
recall
a
security
at
any
time.
The
fund
receives
collateral
in
the
form
of
cash
or
U.S.
government
securities.
Collateral
is
maintained
over
the
life
of
the
loan
in
an
amount
not
less
than
the
value
of
loaned
securities;
any
additional
collateral
required
due
to
changes
in
security
values
is
delivered
to
the
fund
the
next
business
day.
Cash
collateral
is
invested
in
accordance
with
investment
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Corporate
Income
Fund
guidelines
approved
by
fund
management.
Additionally,
the
lending
agent
indemnifies
the
fund
against
losses
resulting
from
borrower
default.
Although
risk
is
mitigated
by
the
collateral
and
indemnification,
the
fund
could
experience
a
delay
in
recovering
its
securities
and
a
possible
loss
of
income
or
value
if
the
borrower
fails
to
return
the
securities,
collateral
investments
decline
in
value,
and
the
lending
agent
fails
to
perform.
Securities
lending
revenue
consists
of
earnings
on
invested
collateral
and
borrowing
fees,
net
of
any
rebates
to
the
borrower,
compensation
to
the
lending
agent,
and

administrative
costs.
In
accordance
with

investments
made
with

collateral
are
reflected
in
the

We

and
the
financial
highlights
for
each
of
the

indicated
therein
(collectively
referred

In

present
fairly,
in
all

the
financial

as
of

Basis
for
Opinion
These
financial
statements
are
the
responsibility
of
the

management.
Our
responsibility
is
to
express
an
opinion
on
the
Fund’s
financial
statements
based
on
our
audits.
We
are
a
public
accounting
firm
registered
with
the
Public

and
are
required

the
U.S.
federal
securities
laws
and
the
applicable
rules
and
regulations
of
the
Securities

Commission
and
the
PCAOB.
We
conducted
our
audits
of
these
financial
statements
in
accordance
with
the
standards
of
the
PCAOB.
Those
standards
require
that
we
plan
and
perform
the
audit
to
obtain
reasonable
assurance
about
whether
the
financial
statements
are
free
of
material
misstatement,
whether
due
to
error
or
fraud.
T.

Corporate

Our
audits
included
performing
procedures
to
assess
the
risks
of
material
misstatement
of
the
financial
statements,
whether
due
to
error
or
fraud,
and
performing
procedures
that
respond
to
those
risks.
Such
procedures
included
examining,
on
a
test
basis,
evidence
regarding
the
amounts
and
disclosures
in
the
financial
statements.
Our
audits
also
included
evaluating
the
accounting
principles
used
and
significant
estimates
made
by
management,
as
well
as
evaluating
the
overall
presentation
of
the
financial

Our
procedures
included
confirmation
of
securities
owned
as
of
May
31,
2023
by
correspondence
with
the
custodians,
transfer
agent
and
brokers;
when
replies
were
not
received
from

we
performed
other
auditing
procedures.

provide

(Advisory
Contract)
between

In

regard,
at
a
meeting
held
on
March
6–7,

(Meeting),
the
Board,
including
all
of
the

independent

approved
the
continuation
of
the

At
the
Meeting,
the

factors
and
reached
the
conclusions
described
below
relating
to
the
selection
of
the
Adviser
and
the
approval
of
the
Advisory

The
independent

were
assisted
in
their
evaluation
of
the
Advisory
Contract
by
independent
legal
counsel
from
whom
they
received
separate
legal
advice
and
with
whom
they
met
separately.
In
providing
information
to
the
Board,
the
Adviser
was
guided
by
a
detailed
set
of
requests
for
information
submitted
by
independent
legal
counsel
on
behalf
of
the
independent
directors.
In
considering
and
approving
the
continuation
of
the
Advisory
Contract,
the
Board
considered
the
information
it
believed
was
relevant,
including,
but
not
limited
to,
the
information
discussed
below.
The
Board
considered
not
only
the
specific
information
presented
in
connection
with
the
Meeting
but
also
the
knowledge
gained
over
time
through
interaction
with
the
Adviser
about
various
topics.
The
Board
meets
regularly
and,
at
each
of
its
meetings,
covers
an
extensive
agenda
of
topics
and
materials
and
considers
factors
that
are
relevant
to
its
annual
consideration
of
the
renewal
of
the

advisory
contracts,
including
performance
and
the
services
and
support
provided
to
the

and
their

Services
Provided
by
the
Adviser
The
Board
considered
the
nature,
quality,
and
extent
of
the
services
provided
to
the
fund
by
the
Adviser.
These
services
included,
but
were
not
limited
to,
directing
the
fund’s
investments
in
accordance
with
its
investment
program
and
the
overall
management
of
the
fund’s
portfolio,
as
well
as
a
variety
of
related
activities
such
as
financial,
investment
operations,
and
administrative
services;
compliance;
maintaining
the
fund’s
records
and

and
shareholder
communications.
The
Board
also
reviewed
the
background
and
experience
of
the
Adviser’s
senior
management
team
and
investment
personnel
involved
in
the
management
of
the
fund,
as
well
as
the

record.
The
Board
concluded
that
the
information
it
considered
with

to
the
nature,
quality,
and
extent
of
the
services
provided
by
the
Adviser,
as
well
as
the
other

supported

which
ranked
the
returns
of
the
fund’s
Investor
Class
for
various
periods
against
a
universe
of
funds
with
similar
investment
programs
selected
by
Broadridge,
an
independent
provider
of
mutual
fund
data.
In
the
course
of
its
deliberations,
the
Board
considered
performance
information
provided
throughout
the
year
and
in
connection
with
the
Advisory
Contract
review
at
the
Meeting,
as
well
as
information
provided
during
investment
review
meetings
conducted
with
portfolio
managers
and
senior
investment
personnel
during
the
course
of
the
year
regarding
the
fund’s
performance.
The
Board
also
considered
relevant
factors,
such
as
overall
market
conditions
and
trends
that
could
adversely
impact
the
fund’s
performance,
length
of
the
fund’s
performance
track
record,
and
how
closely
the
fund’s
strategies
align
with
its
benchmarks
and
peer
groups.
The
Board
noted
that,
as
of
December
31,
2022,
the
fund
lagged
its
benchmark
for
most
performance
periods
and
the
fund’s
total
returns
ranked
in
the
4th
quartile
for
most
periods
when
compared
with
performance
peer
groups
selected
by
third-party
data
providers.
The
Adviser
provided
the
Board
with
information
addressing
the
fund’s
performance
relative
to
its
benchmarks
and
performance
peers
during
the
applicable
periods,
the
primary
reasons
for
such
results,
and
efforts
being
undertaken
to
improve
performance.
The
Board
considered
the
Adviser’s
responses
and
its
efforts
and
plans
to
improve
the
fund’s
investment
performance
and
noted
that
it
will
continue
to
periodically
review
the
fund’s
performance.
The
Board
concluded
that
the
information
it
considered
with
respect
to
the
fund’s
performance,
as
well
as
the
other
factors
considered
at
the
Meeting,
supported
the
Board’s
approval
of
the
continuation
of
the
Advisory
Contract.
Costs,
Benefits,
Profits,
and
Economies
of
Scale
The
Board
reviewed
detailed
information
regarding
the
revenues
received
by
the
Adviser
under
the
Advisory
Contract
and
other
direct
and
indirect
benefits
that
the
Adviser
(and
its
affiliates)
may
have
realized
from
its
relationship
with
the
fund.
In
considering
soft-
dollar
arrangements
pursuant
to
which
research
may
be
received
from
broker-dealers
that
execute
the
fund’s
portfolio
transactions,
the
Board
noted
that
the
Adviser
bears
the
cost
of
research
services
for
all
client
accounts
that
it
advises,
including
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds.
The
Board
received
information
on
the
estimated
costs
incurred
and
profits
realized
by
the
Adviser
from
managing
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds.
The
Board
also
reviewed
estimates
of
the
profits
realized
from
managing
the
fund
in
particular,
and
the
Board
concluded
that
the
Adviser’s
profits
were
reasonable
in
light
of
the
services
provided
to
the
fund.
The
Board
also
considered
whether
the
fund
benefits
under
the
fee
levels
set
forth
in
the
Advisory
Contract
or
otherwise
from
any
economies
of
scale
realized
by
the
Adviser.
Under
the
Advisory
Contract,
the
fund
pays
a
fee
to
the
Adviser
for
investment
management
services
composed
of
two
components—a
group
fee
rate
based
on
the
combined
average
net
assets
of
most
of
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds
(including
the
fund)
that
declines
at
certain
asset
levels
and
an
individual
fund
fee
rate
based
on
the
fund’s
APPROVAL
OF
INVESTMENT
MANAGEMENT
AGREEMENT
(continued)
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Corporate
Income
Fund
average
daily
net
assets—and
the
fund
pays
its
own
expenses
of
operations.
The
group
fee
rate
decreases
as
total
T.
Rowe
Price
fund
assets
grow,
which
reduces
the
management
fee
rate
for
any
fund
that
has
a
group
fee
component
to
its
management
fee,
and
reflects
that
certain
resources
utilized
to
operate
the
fund
are
shared
with
other
T.
Rowe
Price
funds
thus
allowing
shareholders
of
those
funds
to
share
potential
economies
of
scale.
The
fund
is
also
subject
to
contractual
expense
limitations
that
require
the
Adviser
to
waive
its
fees
and/or
bear
any
expenses
that
would
cause
a
share
class
of
the
fund
to
exceed
a
certain
percentage
based
on
the
class’s
net
assets.
The
expense
limitations
mitigate
the
potential
for
an
increase
in
operating
expenses
above
a
certain
level
that
could
impact
shareholders.
The
fund
also
offers
a
Z
Class,
which
serves
as
an
underlying
investment
within
certain
T.
Rowe
Price
fund
of
funds
arrangements.
The
Adviser
waives
its
advisory
fee
on
the
Z
Class
and
waives
or
bears
the
Z
Class’s
other
operating
expenses,
with
certain
exceptions.
The
Board
considered
whether
the
advisory
fee
and
operating
expense
waivers
on
the
Z
Class
may
present
a
means
for
cross-subsidization
of
the
Z
Class
by
other
share
classes
of
the
fund.
In
that
regard,
the
Board
noted
that
the
Z
Class
operating
expenses
are
largely
covered
by
the
all-inclusive
fees
charged
by
the
investing
T.
Rowe
Price
fund
of
funds
and
that
any
Z
Class
operating
expenses
not
covered
by
the
investing
T.
Rowe
Price
fund
of
funds’
fees
are
paid
by
the
Adviser
and
not
by
shareholders
of
any
other
share
class
of
the
fund.
In
addition,
the
Board
noted
that
the
fund
potentially
shares
in
indirect
economies
of
scale
through
the
Adviser’s
ongoing
investments
in
its
business
in
support
of
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds,
including
investments
in
trading
systems,
technology,
and
regulatory
support
enhancements,
and
the
ability
to
possibly
negotiate
lower
fee
arrangements
with
third-
party
service
providers.
The
Board
concluded
that
the
advisory
fee
structure
for
the
fund
provides
for
a
reasonable
sharing
of
benefits
from
any
economies
of
scale
with
the
fund’s
investors.
Fees
and
Expenses
The
Board
was
provided
with
information
regarding
industry
trends
in
management
fees
and
expenses.
Among
other
things,
the
Board
reviewed
data
for
peer
groups
that
were
compiled
by
Broadridge,
which
compared:
(i)
contractual
management
fees,
actual
management
fees,
nonmanagement
expenses,
and
total
expenses
of
the
Investor
Class
of
the
fund
with
a
group
of
competitor
funds
selected
by
Broadridge
(Expense
Group)
and
(ii)
actual
management
fees,
nonmanagement
expenses,
and
total
expenses
of
the
Investor
Class
of
the
fund
with
a
broader
set
of
funds
within
the
Lipper
investment
classification
(Expense
Universe).
The
Board
considered
the
fund’s
contractual
management
fee
rate,
actual
management
fee
rate
(which
reflects
the
management
fees
actually
received
from
the
fund
by
the
Adviser
after
any
applicable
waivers,
reductions,
or
reimbursements),
operating
expenses,
and
total
expenses
(which
reflect
the
net
total
expense
ratio
of
the
fund
after
any
waivers,
reductions,
or
reimbursements)
in
comparison
with
the
information
for
the
Broadridge
peer
groups.
Broadridge
generally

the
peer
groups
by
seeking
the
most
comparable
funds
based
on
similar
investment
classifications
and
objectives,
expense
structure,
asset
size,
and
operating
components
and
attributes
and
ranked
funds
into
quintiles,
with
the
first
quintile
representing
the
funds
with
the
lowest
relative
expenses
and
the
fifth
quintile
representing
the
funds
with
the
highest
relative
expenses.
The
information
provided
to
the
Board
indicated
that
the
fund’s
contractual
management
fee
ranked
in
the
first
quintile
(Expense
Group),
the
fund’s
actual
management
fee
rate
ranked
in
the
second
quintile
(Expense

and
Expense

and
the
fund’s
total
expenses
ranked
in
the
fourth
quintile
(Expense
Group
and
Expense

The
Board
also
reviewed
the
fee
schedules
for
other
investment
portfolios
with
similar
mandates
that
are
advised
or
subadvised
by
the
Adviser
and
its
affiliates,
including
separately
managed
accounts
for
institutional
and
individual
investors;
subadvised
funds;
and
other
sponsored
investment
portfolios,
including
collective
investment
trusts
and
pooled
vehicles
organized
and
offered
to
investors
outside
the
United
States.
Management
provided
the
Board
with
information
about
the
Adviser’s
responsibilities
and
services
provided
to
subadvisory
and
other
institutional
account
clients,
including
information
about
how
the
requirements
and
economics
of
the
institutional
business
are
fundamentally
different
from
those
of
the
proprietary
mutual
fund
business.
The
Board
considered
information
showing
that
the
Adviser’s
mutual
fund
business
is
generally
more
complex
from
a
business
and
compliance
perspective
than
its
institutional
account
business
and
considered
various
relevant
factors,
such
as
the
broader
scope
of
operations
and
oversight,
more
extensive
shareholder
communication
infrastructure,
greater
asset
flows,
heightened
business
risks,
and
differences
in
applicable
laws
and
regulations
associated
with
the
Adviser’s
proprietary
mutual
fund
business.
In
assessing
the
reasonableness
of
the
fund’s
management
fee
rate,
the
Board
considered
the
differences
in
the
nature
of
the
services
required
for
the
Adviser
to
manage
its
mutual
fund
business
versus
managing
a
discrete
pool
of
assets
as
a
subadviser
to
another
institution’s
mutual
fund
or
for
an
institutional
account
and
that
the
Adviser
generally
performs
significant
additional
services
and
assumes
greater
risk
in
managing
the
fund
and
other
T.
Rowe
Price
funds
than
it
does
for
institutional
account
clients,
including
subadvised
funds.
On
the
basis
of
the
information
provided
and
the
factors
considered,
the
Board
concluded
that
the
fees
paid
by
the
fund
under
the
Advisory
Contract
are
reasonable.
Approval
of
the
Advisory
Contract
As
noted,
the
Board
approved
the
continuation
of
the
Advisory
Contract.
No
single
factor
was
considered
in
isolation
or
to
be
determinative
to
the
decision.
Rather,
the
Board
concluded,
in
light
of
a
weighting
and
balancing
of
all
factors
considered,
that
it
was
in
the
best
interests
of
the
fund
and
its
shareholders
for
the
Board
to
approve
the
continuation
of
the
Advisory
Contract
(including
the
fees
to
be
charged
for
services
thereunder).

Item 1. (b) Notice pursuant to Rule 30e-3.
Not applicable.
Item 2. Code of Ethics.
The registrant has adopted a code of ethics, as defined in Item 2 of Form N-CSR, applicable to its principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. A copy of this code of ethics is filed as an exhibit to this Form N-CSR. No substantive amendments were approved or waivers were granted to this code of ethics during the period covered by this report.
Item 3. Audit Committee Financial Expert.
The registrant’s Board of Directors has determined that Ms. Teresa Bryce Bazemore qualifies as an audit committee financial expert, as defined in Item 3 of Form N-CSR. Ms. Bazemore is considered independent for purposes of Item 3 of Form N-CSR.
Item 4. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.
(a) – (d) Aggregate fees billed for the last two fiscal years for professional services rendered to, or on behalf of, the registrant by the registrant’s principal accountant were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | 2023 | | | 2022 | |
| Audit Fees | | $ | 33,192 | | | $ | 30,268 | |
| Audit-Related Fees | | | - | | | | - | |
| Tax Fees | | | - | | | | 2,074 | |
| All Other Fees | | | - | | | | - | |
Audit fees include amounts related to the audit of the registrant’s annual financial statements and services normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings. Audit-related fees include amounts reasonably related to the performance of the audit of the registrant’s financial statements and specifically include the issuance of a report on internal controls and, if applicable, agreed-upon procedures related to fund acquisitions. Tax fees include amounts related to services for tax compliance, tax planning, and tax advice. The nature of these services specifically includes the review of distribution calculations and the preparation of Federal, state, and excise tax returns. All other fees include the registrant’s pro-rata share of amounts for agreed-upon procedures in conjunction with service contract approvals by the registrant’s Board of Directors/Trustees.
(e)(1) The registrant’s audit committee has adopted a policy whereby audit and non-audit services performed by the registrant’s principal accountant for the registrant, its investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant require pre-approval in advance at regularly scheduled audit committee meetings. If such a service is required between regularly scheduled audit committee meetings, pre-approval may be authorized by one audit committee member with ratification at the next scheduled audit committee meeting. Waiver of pre-approval for audit or non-audit services requiring fees of a de minimis amount is not permitted.
(2) No services included in (b) – (d) above were approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.
(f) Less than 50 percent of the hours expended on the principal accountant’s engagement to audit the registrant’s financial statements for the most recent fiscal year were attributed to work performed by persons other than the principal accountant’s full-time, permanent employees.
(g) The aggregate fees billed for the most recent fiscal year and the preceding fiscal year by the registrant’s principal accountant for non-audit services rendered to the registrant, its investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant were $1,521,000 and $2,959,000, respectively.
(h) All non-audit services rendered in (g) above were pre-approved by the registrant’s audit committee. Accordingly, these services were considered by the registrant’s audit committee in maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.
Item 5. Audit Committee of Listed Registrants.
Not applicable.
Item 6. Investments.
(a) Not applicable. The complete schedule of investments is included in Item 1 of this Form N-CSR.
(b) Not applicable.
Item 7. Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management Investment Companies.
Not applicable.
Item 8. Portfolio Managers of Closed-End Management Investment Companies.
Not applicable.
Item 9. Purchases of Equity Securities by Closed-End Management Investment Company and Affiliated Purchasers.
Not applicable.
Item 10. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
There has been no change to the procedures by which shareholders may recommend nominees to the registrant’s board of directors.
Item 11. Controls and Procedures.
(a) The registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have evaluated the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures within 90 days of this filing and have concluded that the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective, as of that date, in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the registrant in this Form N-CSR was recorded, processed, summarized, and reported timely.
(b) The registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer are aware of no change in the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.
