LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
INTRODUCTION
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
FPA New Income, Inc. (the "Fund") returned 0.71% in the third quarter of 2020 and 1.96% year-to-date.
As of September 30, 2020, the portfolio had a yield-to-worst1 of 1.65% and an effective duration of 1.30 years. Continuing a trend since the pandemic-related selloff in March of this year, yields declined during the quarter across much of the fixed income market, predominantly driven by lower spreads (as the change in Treasury yields was negligible). Despite progress toward a vaccine and therapies for COVID-19 over the past few months, the imminent arrival of an effective and widely disseminated treatment for COVID-19 is not a certainty (although market prices suggest otherwise). Accordingly, the long-term impact of COVID-19 on the economy and asset values remains unclear. This lack of certainty, combined with low interest rates and elevated prices creates a challenging investment environment and leads us to focus on short duration, high-quality bonds (rated single-A or higher) and specific types of credit investments (investments rated BBB or lower). To hedge against a macroeconomic 'failure to launch' — such as weaker-than-expected economic growth and/or weaker-than-expected inflation — we invested in five-year maturity Treasury bonds. The Fund's credit exposure (investments rated BBB or lower) increased from 5.6% on June 30, 2020 to 6.2% as of September 30, 2020.2 Cash and equivalents decreased from 14.2% of the portfolio as of June 30 to 4.7% at September 30.
To help optimize returns for the Fund's existing shareholders, effective as of the close of business on July 31, 2020, the Fund voluntarily closed to new investors and, effective July 1, 2020, FPA implemented a temporary expense waiver (the "Temporary Waiver"), which reduced the Fund's expense ratio to mitigate the effect of the Fund's temporary elevated cash holding. Please see the announcement for more details. On Oct. 2, 2020, FPA removed the Temporary Waiver because we have reduced cash and equivalents to a level we believe is more appropriate in the current market environment and which we believe can be maintained for the near future. Please see the announcement for more details.
Portfolio Attribution3
The largest contributors to performance during the third quarter were corporate loans, asset-backed securities (ABS) backed by auto loans or leases, and ABS backed by equipment. Following a significant increase in spreads and a decline in prices in the first quarter of 2020, spreads decreased significantly during the second quarter, leading to price appreciation across much of the fixed income market, a trend that continued in the third

It does not represent the yield an investor should expect to receive. As of September 30, 2020, the Fund's subsidized/unsubsidized 30-day SEC standardized yield ("SEC Yield") was 1.98%/1.86% respectively. The SEC Yield calculation is an annualized measure of the Fund's dividend and interest payments for the last 30 days, less the Fund expenses. Subsidized yield reflects fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements during the period. Without waivers and/or reimbursements, yields would be reduced. Unsubsidized yield does not adjust for any fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements in effect. The SEC Yield calculation shows investors what they would earn in yield over the course of a 12-month period if the fund continued earning the same rate for the rest of the year.

quarter. The three largest contributors this quarter all benefited from this price appreciation. In addition, the corporate loan holdings benefited from repayment of a few investments that were priced below par.
The only detractors from performance during the quarter were five-year maturity Treasury bonds, a newly instituted position designed to serve as a hedge for the overall portfolio. At the sector level, there were no other meaningful detractors from performance, though there were individual bonds in some sectors that immaterially detracted from performance.

Notably, the market for collateralized loan obligations (CLOs) is one of the few segments where spreads have still not fully recovered to pre-COVID-19 levels, which is why we directed much our investment activity there during the quarter. The CLO exposure increased from 10% of the portfolio as of June 30 to 19% as of September 30.
We stated in a recent commentary that crises often create attractive investments due to a combination of better protection for investors and better return profiles. This year's COVID-19 crisis has been no different. Newly created CLOs include better protection for investors in the form of additional credit support to guard against losses in the underlying corporate loan collateral. Further, the underlying loan portfolios in these new CLOs are often of higher quality (and are therefore considered less risky). Our CLO investment activity was focused on AAA bonds issued by managers who have a track record and investment approach that we believe
4

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
(Continued)
will limit the risk of permanent impairment of our bonds. Should these managers fail to invest in a manner consistent with their history, the significant protection built into AAA bonds should protect the bonds from permanent losses of capital, even in a high default and loss scenario.
The relatively higher CLO spreads highlighted above should translate into higher yields. Moreover, due to risk-free rates near zero,6 the flatness of the yield curve between three months and three years and coupon floors on CLOs,7 the yield opportunity cost of buying floating rate CLOs versus a fixed rate alternative is insignificant. On the other hand, if short-term interest rates rise, the coupon on CLOs should adjust accordingly, helping to maintain the value of those bonds versus fixed rate bonds, all things being equal. The tradeoff is that the limited call protection on CLOs may result in less price appreciation if rates decline.8
Beyond CLOs, we made other high-quality investments in ABS backed by prime or subprime auto loans or leases, equipment, servicer advances, or insurance premium loans; commercial mortgage-backed securities; and residential mortgage-backed securities backed by inactive reverse mortgages.
6 In this case, risk-free rates refer to yields on Treasury bonds maturing in zero to three years.
7 A coupon floor is the minimum coupon rate on a floating rate security.
8 Floating rate bond coupons increase and decrease based on increases and decreases, respectively, in the reference interest rate. Some floating rate bonds have a coupon floor whereby the coupon rate is equal to the greater of the coupon rate defined by the coupon floor and the reference interest rate-based coupon rate. Depending on the magnitude of a decline in the reference interest rate, the floating rate coupon on a bond with a coupon floor might not decline if the reference interest rate-based coupon rate is less than the coupon floor. If a bond's coupon rate equals the coupon floor, then the bond starts to behave like a fixed rate bond whereby a decline in market yields causes the bond's price to rise. However, bonds that are callable often do not appreciate in price much beyond the call price. Callable bonds are bonds that are able to be redeemed by the bond issuer. Some bonds have call protection which is a provision that prohibits the issuer from redeeming the bond for a specified period of time and, once that period expires, the issuer may redeem the bond at a specified price (the call price). Bonds often do not appreciate in price much beyond the call price because bond investors are wary of the loss associated with paying a price above the call price then subsequently having the bond redeemed at the call price. All things being equal, bonds with longer call protection periods and higher call prices have more potential price appreciation when market yields decline. Conversely, bonds with shorter call protection periods and call prices equal to par, like some CLOs, have less potential price appreciation.

In credit markets, spreads declined during the quarter but remain higher than they were at the start of the year. However, spreads are now applied to much lower risk-free rates versus the beginning of the year, resulting in overall yields in high-yield bonds and loans that are comparable to pre-COVID-19 yields, as shown below:

To paraphrase our comments from last quarter, there is a disconnect between bond prices and the uncertainty in the world. It was true three months ago and it is still true today that long-term economic growth and asset prices depend on the effectiveness of a COVID-19 vaccine or treatment and the availability of either. Undoubtedly, substantial progress has been made toward a vaccine and new treatments — but we still don't have enough clarity on their timing and effectiveness. That means there are still significant questions about which borrowers (corporate, consumer or government) will have the wherewithal to repay debt. Our view is that investors should be compensated for the risk of nonpayment of debt on an absolute basis. Thus, while relative value investors may see an attractive high-yield market in a "there-is-no-alternative" world, we see little value in high-yield bonds and other similarly rated debt. Consequently, to the extent that we are investing in credit, those investments have been directed toward situations where we believe there is a significant margin of safety. Those investments have also generally been short in duration to provide protection against an increase in spreads and yields that may arise due to an increase in actual or expected defaults. As one might imagine, such investments are not plentiful in today's world, but this past quarter we identified a few in corporate bank debt and structured products bonds backed by non-performing residential or commercial loans.

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
(Continued)
Due to significant worldwide economic uncertainty, during this past quarter we hedged the portfolio. The high-quality investments described above were largely consistent with our oft-described duration stress test, which seeks to identify bonds that we expect will generate at least a breakeven return over 12 months (assuming that yields rise by 100 basis points during that 12-month period). As yields decline, this stress test directs us toward shorter duration bonds. The shorter duration is beneficial if interest rates rise, which can occur due to some combination of an increase in inflation, real interest rates and spreads. As it relates to inflation and real interest rates, the Federal Reserve has pledged to keep monetary policy accommodative until inflation averages 2% over time, per the Federal Reserve's new average inflation targeting framework. Rising inflation should lead to higher nominal yields and, theoretically, eventually higher real yields — and both would contribute to lower bond prices.
However, despite the Federal Reserve's wishes, higher inflation is not a certainty. There is a very real possibility that meaningful inflation will fail to materialize due to lackluster long-term economic growth. That lackluster growth could be caused by society's inability to control COVID-19, for example, the debt overhang and unproductive capital allocation of a central bank-supported post-COVID-19 economy or unproductive fiscal stimulus. In response, the Federal Reserve could push monetary policy to new bounds, including past the zero bound of interest rates. Current commentary from the Federal Reserve suggests that it is not seriously contemplating negative interest rate policy. However, there is nothing stopping the market from pushing yields on bonds into negative territory in anticipation of a move in that direction by the Federal Reserve. Alternatively, the Federal Reserve could pursue other measures that suppress bond yields. All else constant, such outcomes would be positive for bonds in the near term since lower yields would lead to price appreciation. However, the short duration bonds in our portfolio would see limited benefit.
To gain exposure to more price appreciation if yields decline, we instituted a hedge via an investment in five-year Treasury bonds. As of the end of the quarter, that position represented 4.6% of the portfolio. If yields decline further, we expect these Treasury bonds will experience much greater price appreciation than the bonds in the rest of the portfolio (which have an average duration of approximately one year). We chose five-year maturity bonds and sized this Treasury position so it will meaningfully contribute to returns in the event that interest rates decline, but if rates rise, they should still position the portfolio to produce a positive total return over 12 months. Finally, Treasuries have the added benefit of being among the most liquid investments in the world, so we can quickly adjust the hedge as market conditions change. That said, like many hedges, this hedge has a cost, so we recognize that these Treasury bonds could periodically detract from performance as interest rates move.
Market Commentary
In many ways, today's market is unprecedented. The 10-year US Treasury yield recently hit its lowest point in more than 230 years, and the yield on the 2-year US Treasury also reached a new all-time low this year since they started tracking it in 1976 (see the following charts). But this isn't the first time we've dealt with historically low interest rates.

The new all-time low yield on the 2-year Treasury was 0.13% on Sept. 30, 2020. That beats a record low established just eight years ago, at the end of September 2012, when the yield on the 2-year Treasury was 0.23%. At a high level, it appears that today's environment is similar to where we were in late 2012.
But there are differences too, of course. One is the shape of the yield curve. In 2012, the yield curve was much steeper than it is today (see the following chart).

In the period following the Great Financial Crisis starting in 2010, the Federal Reserve undertook what was then a novel approach of buying Treasuries and agency mortgages in a bid to stimulate economic growth and generate higher inflation. Something similar is playing out today. The Federal Reserve is using its playbook from the Great Financial Crisis and applying it to the current COVID-19 crisis but with much greater magnitude and at a much faster pace. Just a few months into the COVID-19 crisis, Federal Reserve purchases of Treasuries and mortgages had already grown to exceed the balance sheet expansion that took many years to amass following the Great Financial Crisis. This time, however, the Federal Reserve took the additional step of adjusting its inflation objective. In the past, 2% inflation was the ceiling, but now the Federal Reserve says it will allow inflation to exceed 2% to achieve an average of 2% over some undefined period.10
This comparison to the past is relevant for anyone wondering if we can produce an attractive return in a historically low interest rate environment. The charts below show that we've done it before. The first graph shows the rolling three-year returns of the Fund versus the Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index and the Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate 1-3 Year Bond Index.

We recognize that no two markets are the same, and that there are differences between 2012 and today. Still, the charts above show that in the eight years since the last time interest rates reached historical lows, the Fund has generally provided a better return than the Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate 1-3 Year Bond Index and, in some instances, the Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index as well, when comparing the rolling 3-year and 5-year annualized returns. That kind of performance requires patience and is not necessarily achieved over a few quarters or a year, but rather over longer horizons. It also requires discipline and consistent adherence to a tried and true investment philosophy. Today's environment is more challenging than it was in 2012 because the yield curve is flatter, which means that even if one wanted to take on additional duration risk, there is very little compensation for doing so. Having said that, the steeper yield curve in 2012 did not ultimately matter at the time because, as evidenced by our short duration in 2012, we did not need to utilize the yield curve steepness back then to aid the Fund's performance.
Looking ahead, we are cautiously optimistic about the Fund's positioning. The sharp decline in yields and spreads in the market have left the indices noted in the paragraph above with a lower yield-to-worst than the Fund. (See table below). Consequently, with a shorter duration than the indices, the Fund has a much better yield/duration profile, which we believe leaves the Fund well positioned in the short-term if interest rates or credit spreads rise modestly.

13 Collateralized mortgage obligations ("CMO") are mortgage-backed bonds that separate mortgage pools into different maturity classes. Commercial mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS") are securities backed by commercial mortgages rather than residential mortgages.
14 Yield to Worst ("YTW") is presented gross of fees and reflects the lowest possible yield on a callable bond without the issuer defaulting. It does not represent the yield an investor should expect to receive. As of September 30, 2020, the Fund's subsidized/unsubsidized 30-day SEC standardized yield ("SEC Yield") was 1.98%/1.86% respectively. The SEC Yield calculation is an annualized measure of the Fund's dividend and interest payments for the last 30 days, less the Fund expenses. Subsidized yield reflects fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements during the period. Without waivers and/or reimbursements, yields would be reduced. Unsubsidized yield does not adjust for any fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements in effect. The SEC Yield calculation shows investors what they would earn in yield over the course of a 12-month period if the fund continued earning the same rate for the rest of the year.
Past performance is no guarantee, nor is it indicative, of future results.

Important Disclosures
This update is for informational and discussion purposes only and does not constitute, and should not be construed as, an offer or solicitation for the purchase or sale of any securities, products or services discussed, and neither does it provide investment advice. Any such offer or solicitation shall only be made pursuant to the Fund's Prospectus, which supersedes the information contained herein in its entirety.
The views expressed herein, and any forward-looking statements, are as of the date of the publication and are those of the portfolio management team and are subject to change without notice. Future events or results may vary significantly from those expressed and are subject to change at any time in response to changing circumstances and industry developments. This information and data has been prepared from sources believed reliable, but the accuracy and completeness of the information cannot be guaranteed and is not a complete summary or statement of all available data. You should not construe the contents of this document as legal, tax, accounting, investment or other advice or recommendations.
Thomas Atteberry and Abhijeet Patwardhan have been portfolio managers for the Fund since November 2004 and November 2015, respectively, and manage the Fund in a manner that is substantially similar to the prior portfolio manager, Robert Rodriguez. Mr. Rodriguez ceased serving as the Fund's portfolio manager effective December 2009.
Portfolio composition will change due to ongoing management of the Fund. References to individual securities or sectors are for informational purposes only and should not be construed as recommendations by the Fund, the portfolio managers, the Adviser, or the distributor. It should not be assumed that future investments will be profitable or will equal the performance of the security or sector examples discussed. The portfolio holdings as of the most recent quarter-end may be obtained at www.fpa.com.
The statements made herein may be forward-looking and/or based on current expectations, projections, and/or information currently available. Actual results may differ from those anticipated. The portfolio managers and/or FPA cannot assure future results and disclaims any obligation to update or alter any statistical data and/or references thereto, as well as any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Such statements may or may not be accurate over the long-term.
Investments, including investments in mutual funds, carry risks and investors may lose principal value. Capital markets are volatile and can decline significantly in response to adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market, or economic developments. The Fund may purchase foreign securities, including American Depository Receipts (ADRs) and other depository receipts, which are subject to interest rate, currency exchange rate, economic and political risks; this may be enhanced when investing in emerging markets. Foreign investments, especially those of companies in emerging markets, can be riskier, less liquid, harder to value, and more volatile than investments in the United States. The securities of smaller, less well-known companies can be more volatile than those of larger companies.
The return of principal in a bond fund is not guaranteed. Bond funds have the same issuer, interest rate, inflation and credit risks that are associated with underlying bonds owned by the Fund. Lower rated bonds, convertible securities and other types of debt obligations involve greater risks than higher rated bonds.
Interest rate risk is the risk that when interest rates go up, the value of fixed income securities, such as bonds, typically go down and investors may lose principal value. Credit risk is the risk of loss of principal due to the issuer's failure to repay a loan. Generally, the lower the quality rating of a security, the greater the risk that the issuer will fail to pay interest fully and return principal in a timely manner. If an issuer defaults the security may lose some or all of its value.

Mortgage securities and collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) are subject to prepayment risk and the risk of default on the underlying mortgages or other assets; such derivatives may increase volatility. Convertible securities are generally not investment grade and are subject to greater credit risk than higher-rated investments. High yield securities can be volatile and subject to much higher instances of default.
Value style investing presents the risk that the holdings or securities may never reach their full market value because the market fails to recognize what the portfolio management team considers the true business value or because the portfolio management team has misjudged those values. In addition, value style investing may fall out of favor and underperform growth or other styles of investing during given periods.
The ratings agencies that provide ratings are Standard and Poor's, Moody's, and Fitch. Credit ratings range from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Bonds rated BBB or above are considered investment grade. Credit ratings of BB and below are lower-rated securities (junk bonds). High-yielding, non-investment grade bonds (junk bonds) involve higher risks than investment grade bonds. Bonds with credit ratings of CCC or below have high default risk.
Please refer to the Fund's Prospectus for a complete overview of the primary risks associated with the Fund.

Index / Benchmark Definitions
Comparison to any index is for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as a fully accurate measure of comparison. The Fund will be less diversified than the indices noted herein, and may hold non-index securities or securities that are not comparable to those contained in an index. Indices will hold positions that are not within the Fund's investment strategy. Indices are unmanaged, do not reflect any commissions, fees or expenses which would be incurred by an investor purchasing the underlying securities. The Fund does not include outperformance of any index or benchmark in its investment objectives. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.
Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index provides a measure of the performance of the U.S. investment grade bonds market, which includes investment grade U.S. Government bonds, investment grade corporate bonds, mortgage pass-through securities and asset-backed securities that are publicly offered for sale in the United States. The securities in the Index must have at least 1 year remaining in maturity. In addition, the securities must be denominated in U.S. dollars and must be fixed rate, nonconvertible, and taxable.
Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate 1-3 Year Index provides a measure of the performance of the U.S. investment grade bonds market, which includes investment grade U.S. Government bonds, investment grade corporate bonds, mortgage pass-through securities and asset-backed securities that are publicly offered for sale in the United States. The securities in the Index must have a remaining maturity of 1 to 3 years. In addition, the securities must be denominated in U.S. dollars and must be fixed rate, nonconvertible, and taxable.
Bloomberg Barclays U.S. High Yield Index measures the market of USD-denominated, non-investment grade, fixed-rate, taxable corporate bonds.

Credit Suisse Leveraged Loan Index is designed to mirror the investable universe of U.S. dollar institutional leveraged loans, including U.S. and international borrowers.
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is an unmanaged index representing the rate of the inflation of U.S. consumer prices as determined by the U.S. Department of Labor Statistics. There can be no guarantee that the CPI will reflect the exact level of inflation at any given time. This index reflects non-seasonally adjusted returns.
CPI + 100 bps is the measure of the CPI plus an additional 100 basis points.
Basis Point (bps) is equal to one hundredth of one percent, or 0.01%. 100 basis points = 1%.
Corporate holdings include bank debt, corporate bonds and common stock.
A discount margin to maturity is the average expected return of a floating-rate security (typically a bond) that's earned in addition to the index underlying, or reference rate of, the security. The size of the discount margin depends on the price of the floating- or variable-rate security.
Effective Duration (years) is the duration calculation for bonds with embedded options. Effective duration takes into account that expected cash flows will fluctuate as interest rates change.
Margin of Safety is a principle of investing in which an investor purchases securities when they believe the market price is significantly below its estimated intrinsic value. In other words, when the market price of a security is, in an investor's view, significantly below their estimation of the intrinsic value, the difference is the margin of safety. Using the margin of safety principle may help to reduce downside risk. Note, determining a company's "true" worth or intrinsic value is highly subjective. There is no guarantee that the methods used to evaluate intrinsic value will be accurate or precise or that an investment made using this principle will be successful.
Repo (Repurchase Agreement) is a form of short-term borrowing for dealers in government securities.
Spread to worst (bps) measures the dispersion of returns between the best and worst performing security in a given market, usually bond markets, or between returns from different markets.
Weighted Average Life (years) is the average length of time that each dollar of unpaid principal on a loan, a mortgage or an amortizing bond remains outstanding.
Yield to Maturity is the rate of return anticipated on a bond if held until the end of its lifetime. YTM is considered a long-term bond yield expressed as an annual rate. The YTM calculation takes into account the bond's current market price, par value, coupon interest rate and time to maturity. It is also assumed that all coupon payments are reinvested at the same rate as the bond's current yield.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2020
NOTE 1 — Significant Accounting Policies
FPA New Income, Inc. (the "Fund") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as a diversified, open-end, management investment company. The Fund's primary investment objective is to seek current income and long-term total return. Capital preservation is also a consideration. The Fund qualifies as an investment company pursuant to Financial Accounting Standard Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) No. 946, Financial Services — Investment Companies. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.
A. Security Valuation
The Fund's investments are reported at fair value as defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, ("U.S. GAAP"). The Fund generally determines its net asset value as of approximately 4:00 p.m. New York time each day the New York Stock Exchange is open. Further discussion of valuation methods, inputs and classifications can be found under Disclosure of Fair Value Measurements.
B. Securities Transactions and Related Investment Income
Securities transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased or sold. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income and expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Market discounts and premiums on fixed income securities are amortized over the expected life of the securities. Realized gains or losses are based on the specific identification method.
C. Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
D. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) — Disclosure Framework — Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The amendments eliminate certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements for all entities, requires public entities to disclose certain new information and modifies some disclosure requirements. The new guidance is effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity is permitted to early adopt either the entire standard or only the provisions that eliminate or modify requirements. The Adviser is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance on the Fund's financial statements.
E. Due from broker represents cash, foreign currencies, and margin balances held at financial institutions as well as net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on foreign currency balances. The due from broker balance may be restricted to the extent that they serve as deposits for certain marketable securities (for example, unfunded commitments for loans purchased). The Fund is subject to credit risk to the extent any broker with which it conducts business is unable to fulfill contractual obligations on its behalf. As considered necessary, the Fund reviews the credit standing of financial institutions with which it has funds on deposit and does not anticipate any losses from these counter-parties. As of September 30, 2020 due from broker consisted of $2,830,000 in cash restricted for use to the unfunded commitments of loans purchased.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 2 — Risk Considerations
Investing in the Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, those described below.
Market Risk: Because the values of the Fund's investments will fluctuate with market conditions, so will the value of your investment in the Fund. You could lose money on your investment in the Fund or the Fund could underperform other investments.
Interest Rate and Credit Risk: The values of, and the income generated by, most debt securities held by the Fund may be affected by changing interest rates and by changes in the effective maturities and credit rating of these securities. For example, the value of debt securities in the Fund's portfolio generally will decline when interest rates rise and increase when interest rates fall. In addition, falling interest rates may cause an issuer to redeem, call or refinance a security before its stated maturity, which may result in the Fund having to reinvest the proceeds in lower yielding securities.
Mortgage-Backed and Other Asset-Backed Securities Risk: The values of some mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities may expose the Fund to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. When interest rates rise, the value of mortgage-related securities generally will decline; however, when interest rates are declining, the value of mortgage related-securities with prepayment features may not increase as much as other fixed income securities. The rate of prepayments on underlying mortgages will affect the price and volatility of a mortgage-related security, and may shorten or extend the effective maturity of the security beyond what was anticipated at the time of purchase. If an unanticipated rate of prepayment on underlying mortgages increases the effective maturity of a mortgage-related security, the volatility of the security can be expected to increase. The value of these securities may also fluctuate in response to the market's perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
Stripped Mortgage-Backed Interest Only ("I/O") and Principal Only ("P/O") Securities: Stripped mortgage backed securities are usually structured with two classes that receive different proportions of the interest and principal distributions on a pool of mortgage assets. In certain cases, one class will receive all of the interest payments on the underlying mortgages (the I/O class), while the other class will receive all of the principal payments (the P/O class). The Fund currently has investments in I/O and P/O securities. The yield to maturity on I/Os is sensitive to the rate of principal repayments (including prepayments) on the related underlying mortgage assets, and principal payments may have a material effect on yield-to-maturity. If the underlying mortgage assets experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, a Fund may not fully recoup its initial investment in I/Os.
Credit Risk: Debt securities are subject to credit risk, meaning that the issuer of the debt security may default or fail to make timely payments of principal or interest. The values of any of the Fund's investments may also decline in response to events affecting the issuer or its credit rating. The lower rated debt securities in which the Fund may invest are considered speculative and are generally subject to greater volatility and risk of loss than investment grade securities, particularly in deteriorating economic conditions. The Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in securities of issuers that hold mortgage-and asset-backed securities and direct investments in securities backed by commercial and residential mortgage loans and other financial assets. The value and related income of these securities is sensitive to changes in economic conditions, including delinquencies and/or defaults. Continuing shifts in the market's perception of credit quality on securities backed by commercial and residential mortgage loans and other financial assets may result in increased volatility of market price and periods of illiquidity that can negatively impact the valuation of certain securities held by the Fund.

Repurchase Agreements: Repurchase agreements permit the Fund to maintain liquidity and earn income over periods of time as short as overnight. Repurchase agreements held by the Fund are fully collateralized by U.S. Government securities, or securities issued by U.S. Government agencies, or securities that are within the three highest credit categories assigned by established rating agencies (Aaa, Aa, or A by Moody's or AAA, AA or A by Standard & Poor's) or, if not rated by Moody's or Standard & Poor's, are of equivalent investment quality as determined by the Adviser. Such collateral is in the possession of the Fund's custodian. The collateral is evaluated daily to ensure its fair value equals or exceeds the current fair value of the repurchase agreements including accrued interest. In the event of default on the obligation to repurchase, the Fund has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation.
The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements, under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement ("MRA"). The MRA permits the Fund, under certain circumstances including an event of default (such as bankruptcy or insolvency), to offset payables and/or receivables under the MRA with collateral held and/or posted to the counterparty and create one single net payment due to or from the Fund. However, bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against such a right of offset in the event of a MRA counterparty's bankruptcy or insolvency. Pursuant to the terms of the MRA, the Fund receives securities as collateral with a fair value in excess of the repurchase price to be received by the Fund upon the maturity of the repurchase transaction. Upon a bankruptcy or insolvency of the MRA counterparty, the Fund recognizes a liability with respect to such excess collateral to reflect the Fund's obligation under bankruptcy law to return the excess to the counterparty. Repurchase agreements outstanding at the end of the period are listed in the Fund's Portfolio of Investments.
Many countries have experienced outbreaks of infectious illnesses in recent decades, including swine flu, avian influenza, SARS and, more recently, COVID-19. The global outbreak of COVID-19 in early 2020 has resulted in various disruptions, including travel and border restrictions, quarantines, supply chain disruptions, lower consumer demand and general market uncertainty. The effects of COVID-19 have and may continue to adversely affect the global economy, financial markets and the economies of certain nations and individual issuers, any of which may negatively impact the Fund and its holdings. Similar consequences could arise as a result of the spread of other infectious diseases.
NOTE 3 — Purchases and Sales of Investment Securities
Cost of purchases of investment securities (excluding short-term investments) aggregated $ 6,306,013,337 for the year ended September 30, 2020. The proceeds and cost of securities sold resulting in net realized gains of $48,161,567 aggregated $3,756,229,225 and $3,708,067,658, respectively, for the year ended September 30, 2020. Realized gains or losses are based on the specific identification method.
NOTE 4 — Advisory Fees and Other Affiliated Transactions
Pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement (the "Agreement"), advisory fees were paid by the Fund to First Pacific Advisors, LP (the "Adviser"). Under the terms of this Agreement, the Fund pays the Adviser a monthly fee calculated at the annual rate of 0.50% of the Fund's average daily net assets. In addition, the adviser contractually agreed to reimburse expenses in excess of 0.50% of the average net assets of the Fund (excluding brokerage fees and commissions, interest, taxes, shareholder service fees, fees and expenses of other funds in which the Fund invests, and extraordinary expenses) through January 31, 2021. The Agreement obligates the Adviser to reduce its fee to the extent necessary to reimburse the Fund for any annual expenses (exclusive of interest, taxes, the cost of any supplemental statistical and research information, and extraordinary expenses such as litigation) in excess of 1.5% of the first $15 million and 1% of the remaining average net assets of the Fund for the year. From July 1, 2020 through October 2, 2020 the Advisor voluntarily waived advisory fees to limit expenses in excess of 0.48% of the average net assets of the Fund.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
For the year ended September 30, 2020, the Fund paid aggregate fees and expenses of $252,747 to all Directors who are not affiliated persons of the Adviser. Certain officers of the Fund are also officers of the Adviser.
NOTE 5 — Federal Income Tax
No provision for federal income tax is required because the Fund has elected to be taxed as a "regulated investment company" under the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") and intends to maintain this qualification and to distribute each year to its shareholders, in accordance with the minimum distribution requirements of the Code, its taxable net investment income and taxable net realized gains on investments.
Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax reporting basis, which may differ from financial reporting. For federal income tax purposes, the Fund had the following components of distributable earnings at September 30, 2020:
Unrealized Depreciation | | $ | (24,369,591 | ) | |
Undistributed Ordinary Income | | | 700,154 | | |
Capital Loss Carryover | | | (393,722,009 | ) | |
The tax status of distributions paid during the fiscal years ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 were as follows:
| | 2020 | | 2019 | |
Dividends from ordinary income | | $ | 182,547,346 | | | $ | 224,500,483 | | |
The Fund utilizes the provisions of federal income tax laws that provide for the carryforward of capital losses for prior years, offsetting such losses against any future realized capital gains. Under the Regulated Investment Company Act of 2010 (the "Act"), net capital losses recognized for fiscal years beginning after December 22, 2010 may be carried forward indefinitely, and their character is retained as short-term and/or long-term losses.
As of September 30, 2020, the fund had $93,350,662 of short-term capital losses and $300,371,347 of long-term capital losses available to offset possible future capital gains.
The cost of investment securities held at September 30, 2020, was $8,982,398,518 for federal income tax purposes. Gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation for all investments (excluding short-term investments) at September 30, 2020, for federal income tax purposes was $87,796,151 and $112,165,742, respectively resulting in net unrealized depreciation of $24,369,591. As of and during the year ended September 30, 2020, the Fund did not have any liability for unrecognized tax benefits. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the year, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties. The statute of limitations remains open for the last 3 years, once a return is filed. No examinations are in progress at this time.
During the year ended September 30, 2020, the Fund reclassified $1,235 to Distributable earnings from Paid in Capital. The permanent book/tax differences arose principally from differing book/tax treatment of market discount accretion of securities, Net assets were not affected by these reclassifications.

NOTE 6 — Disclosure of Fair Value Measurements
The Fund uses the following methods and inputs to establish the fair value of its assets and liabilities. Use of particular methods and inputs may vary over time based on availability and relevance as market and economic conditions evolve.
Equity securities are generally valued each day at the official closing price of, or the last reported sale price on, the exchange or market on which such securities principally are traded, as of the close of business on that day. If there have been no sales that day, equity securities are generally valued at the last available bid price. Securities that are unlisted and fixed-income and convertible securities listed on a national securities exchange for which the over-the-counter ("OTC") market more accurately reflects the securities' value in the judgment of the Fund's officers, are valued at the most recent bid price. However, most fixed income securities are generally valued at prices obtained from pricing vendors and brokers. Vendors value such securities based on one or more of the following inputs: transactions, bids, offers quotations from dealers and trading systems, spreads and other relationships observed in the markets among comparable securities, benchmarks, underlying equity of the issuer, and proprietary pricing models such as cash flows, financial or collateral performance and other reference data (includes prepayments, defaults, collateral, credit enhancements, and interest rate volatility). Short-term corporate notes with maturities of 60 days or less at the time of purchase are valued at amortized cost.
Securities for which representative market quotations are not readily available or are considered unreliable by the Adviser are valued as determined in good faith under procedures adopted by the authority of the Fund's Board of Directors. Various inputs may be reviewed in order to make a good faith determination of a security's value. These inputs include, but are not limited to, the type and cost of the security; contractual or legal restrictions on resale of the security; relevant financial or business developments of the issuer; actively traded similar or related securities; conversion or exchange rights on the security; related corporate actions; significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security; and changes in overall market conditions. Fair valuations and valuations of investments that are not actively trading involve judgment and may differ materially from valuations of investments that would have been used had greater market activity occurred.
The Fund classifies its assets based on three valuation methodologies. Level 1 values are based on quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets. Level 2 values are based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices for similar assets and quoted prices in inactive markets or other market observable inputs as noted above including spreads, cash flows, financial performance, prepayments, defaults, collateral, credit enhancements, and interest rate volatility. Level 3 values are based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Fund's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the assets. These assumptions consider inputs such as proprietary pricing models, cash flows, prepayments, defaults, and collateral. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following table presents the valuation levels of the Fund's investments as of September 30, 2020:
Investments | | Level 1 | | Level 2 | | Level 3 | | Total | |

Level 3 Valuation Process: Investments classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are valued by the Adviser in good faith under procedures adopted by authority of the Fund's Board of Directors. The Adviser employs various methods to determine fair valuations including regular review of key inputs and assumptions, and review of related market activity, if any. However, there are generally no observable trade activities in these securities. The Adviser reports to the Board of Directors at their regularly scheduled quarterly meetings, or more often if warranted. The report includes a summary of the results of the process, the key inputs and assumptions noted, and any changes to the inputs and assumptions used. When appropriate, the Adviser will recommend changes to the procedures and process employed. The value determined for an investment using the fair value procedures may differ significantly from the value realized upon the sale of such investment.
Transfers of investments between different levels of the fair value hierarchy are recorded at fair value as of the end of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Level 1 and 2.
The following table summarizes the quantitative inputs and assumptions used for items categorized as items categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as of September 30, 2020:

NOTE 7 — Collateral Requirements
FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, requires disclosures to make financial statements that are prepared under U.S. GAAP more comparable to those prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards. Under this guidance the Fund discloses both gross and net information about instruments and transactions eligible for offset such as instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. In addition, the Fund discloses collateral received and posted in connection with master netting agreements or similar arrangements.
The following table presents the Fund's repurchase agreements by counterparty net of amounts available for offset under an ISDA Master agreement or similar agreements and net of the related collateral received or pledged by the Fund as of September 30, 2020, are as follows:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED
PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
TO THE SHAREHOLDERS AND
BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF FPA NEW INCOME, INC.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of FPA New Income, Inc. (the "Fund"), including the portfolio of investments, as of September 30, 2020, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). The financial highlights for the years ended September 30, 2016 and September 30, 2017 were audited by another independent registered public accounting firm whose report, dated November 20, 2017, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial highlights. In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund at September 30, 2020, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and its financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our 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 procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of September 30, 2020, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. 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 statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Fund Expenses
Mutual fund shareholders generally incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; shareholder service fees; and other Fund expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the year and held for the entire year.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading "Actual Performance" provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this column, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first column in the row entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading "Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)" provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to
compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading "Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)" is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher. Even though the Fund does not charge transaction fees, if you purchase shares through a broker, the broker may charge you a fee. You should evaluate other mutual funds' transaction fees and any applicable broker fees to assess the total cost of ownership for comparison purposes.
| | Actual Performance | | Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses) | |
Beginning Account Value March 31, 2020 | | $ | 1,000.00 | | | $ | 1,000.00 | | |
Ending Account Value September 30, 2020 | | $ | 1,033.90 | | | $ | 1,022.56 | | |
Expenses Paid During Period* | | $ | 2.49 | | | $ | 2.47 | | |
* Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio of 0.49%, multiplied by the average account value over the period and prorated for the six-months ended September 30, 2020 (183/366 days).

APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT
(Unaudited)
Approval of the Advisory Agreement. At a meeting of the Board of Directors held on August 10, 2020, the Directors approved the continuation of the advisory agreement between the Fund and the Adviser (the "Advisory Agreement") for an additional one-year period through September 30, 2021, on the recommendation of the Independent Directors, who met in executive session on August 10, 2020 prior to the Board meeting to review and discuss the proposed continuation of the Advisory Agreement. The Board had also met on July 13, 2020, with the Independent Directors meeting separately prior to the Meeting in executive session with the management of the Adviser and then separately with independent counsel to evaluate the renewal of the Advisory Agreement. Prior to their July 13 meeting, the Independent Directors, through their independent counsel, had requested and received extensive materials prepared in connection with the review of the Advisory Agreements. The materials provided a broad range of information regarding the Fund, including a description of, among other matters, the terms of the Advisory Agreement; the services provided by the Adviser; the experience of the relevant investment personnel; the Fund's performance in absolute terms and as compared to the performance of peers and appropriate benchmark(s); the fees and expenses of the Fund in absolute terms and as compared to peers; and the profitability of the Adviser from serving as adviser to the Fund. Following their review at the July 13 meeting, the Independent Directors requested (through their independent counsel) and received supplemental information and responses to a number of questions relating to the materials provided by the Adviser.
In addition to the executive sessions, the Boards, acting directly or through their committees, met regularly throughout the year and received information on a variety of topics that were relevant to its annual consideration of the renewal of each Advisory Agreement including, among other matters, Fund investment performance, compliance, risk management, liquidity, valuation, trade execution, service provider oversight and other matters relating to Fund operations. The Independent Directors also had met with management of the Adviser (including key investment personnel) at their quarterly meetings as well as with management at other times between the quarterly meetings throughout the year. The materials specifically provided in connection with the annual review of the Advisory Agreements supplement the information received throughout the year.
At their regular Board meetings and executive sessions, the Independent Directors were also advised by independent legal counsel. In addition to the materials provided by the Adviser, the Independent Directors received a legal memorandum from independent counsel that outlined, among other matters: the duties of the Independent Directors and relevant requirements under the 1940 Act; the general principles under state law relevant to considering the approval of advisory contracts; an adviser's fiduciary duty with respect to advisory agreements and compensation; the standards used by courts in determining whether investment advisers and investment company boards of trustees have fulfilled their duties; and factors to be considered by the Independent Directors when voting on advisory agreements. During both executive sessions, independent legal counsel reviewed with Independent Directors these duties, standards and factors summarized in the legal memorandum described above. The following paragraphs summarize the material information and factors considered by the Board and the Independent Directors, as well as the Directors' conclusions relative to such factors.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board and the Independent Directors considered information provided by the Adviser in response to their requests, as well as information provided throughout the year regarding: the Adviser and its staffing in connection with the Fund, including the Fund's portfolio managers and the senior analysts supporting them; the scope of services supervised and provided by the Adviser; and the absence of any significant service problems reported to the Board. The Board and the Independent Directors noted the experience, length of service and the outstanding reputation of the Fund's portfolio managers: Tom

Atteberry, who has been with the Adviser since 1997 and has served as portfolio manager since 2004 and Abhijeet V. Patwardhan, who joined the Adviser in 2010 and has served as portfolio manager since 2015. After discussion, the Board and the Independent Directors concluded that the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Adviser have benefited and should continue to benefit the Fund and its shareholders.
Investment Performance. The Board and the Independent Directors reviewed the overall investment performance of the Fund. The Directors also received information from an independent consultant, Broadridge, regarding the Fund's performance relative to a peer group of alternative credit focus funds selected by Broadridge (the "Peer Group"). The Board and the Independent Directors considered the Adviser's representation that the Fund's investment style, as evidenced by the short-term duration of most of its portfolio securities, as well as the Fund's flexibility to invest in a variety of areas, complicated Peer Group comparisons in that the Fund is managed in a more conservative style than the typical fixed income fund and the funds in the Peer Group. The Board and the Independent Directors noted the Fund's absolute investment results and its long-term investment performance when compared to the Peer Group. The Board and the Independent Directors noted the Fund outperformed its Peer Group median for the one-, three-, and five-year periods ending March 31, 2020, and underperformed its Peer Group for the ten-year periods ending March 31, 2020. The Board and the Independent Directors also noted that the Fund underperformed the comparative Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Index for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods ending March 31, 2020. They also noted that Morningstar has continued to give the Fund a "Bronze" Analyst Rating. After discussion, the Board and the Independent Directors determined that the Fund's investment results were reasonable in light of the Fund's objectives and concluded that the Adviser's continued management of the Fund should benefit the Fund and its shareholders.
Advisory Fees and Fund Expenses; Comparison with Peer Group and Institutional Fees. The Board and the Independent Directors considered information provided by the Adviser regarding the Fund's advisory fees and total expense levels. The Board and the Independent Directors reviewed comparative information regarding fees and expenses for the Peer Group. The Board and the Independent Directors noted that the Fund's advisory fee was slightly above the Peer Group median and its overall net expense ratio was equal to that of the Peer Group median. In addition, the Directors noted that the fee rate charged to the Fund is higher than institutional accounts managed in a similar style by the portfolio managers but considered the Adviser's discussion of the differences between the services provided by the Adviser to the Fund and those provided by the Adviser to the institutional accounts. The Board and the Independent Directors concluded that the continued payment of advisory fees and expenses by the Fund to the Adviser was fair and reasonable and should continue to benefit the Fund and its shareholders.
Adviser Profitability and Costs. The Board and the Independent Directors considered information provided by the Adviser regarding the Adviser's costs in providing services to the Fund, the profitability of the Adviser and the benefits to the Adviser from its relationship to the Fund. They reviewed and considered the Adviser's representations regarding its assumptions and methods of allocating certain costs, such as personnel costs, which constitute the Adviser's largest operating cost, overhead and trading costs with respect to the provision of investment advisory services. The Independent Directors discussed with the Adviser the general process through which individuals' compensation is determined and then reviewed by the management committee of the Adviser, as well as the Adviser's methods for determining that its compensation levels are set at appropriate levels to attract and retain the personnel necessary to provide high quality professional investment advice. In evaluating the Adviser's profitability, they excluded certain distribution and marketing-related expenses. The Board and the
62

(Unaudited)
Independent Directors recognized that the Adviser is entitled under the law to earn a reasonable level of profits for the services that it provides to the Fund. The Board and the Independent Directors concluded that the Adviser's level of profitability from its relationship with the Fund did not indicate that the Adviser's compensation was unreasonable or excessive.
Economies of Scale and Sharing of Economies of Scale. The Board and the Independent Directors considered whether there have been economies of scale with respect to the management of the Fund, whether the Fund has appropriately benefited from any economies of scale, and whether the fee rate is reasonable in relation to the Fund's asset levels and any economies of scale that may exist. The Board and the Independent Directors considered the Adviser's representation that its internal costs of providing investment management services to the Fund have significantly increased in recent years as a result of a number of factors, including the Adviser's substantial investment in additional professional resources and staffing. The Board and the Independent Directors considered both quantitative and qualitative information regarding the Adviser's representation that it has also made significant investments in: (1) the two portfolio managers, five analysts, traders and other investment personnel who assist with the management of the Fund; (2) new compliance, operations, and administrative personnel; (3) information technology, portfolio accounting and trading systems; and (4) office space, each of which enhances the quality of services provided to the Fund. The Board and the Independent Directors also considered the Adviser's willingness to close funds to new investors when it believed that a fund may have limited capacity to grow or that it otherwise would benefit fund shareholders. The Board noted that the Fund does not charge sales loads..
The Board and the Independent Directors recognized that the advisory fee rate schedule for the Fund does not have breakpoints. They considered that many mutual funds have breakpoints in the advisory fee structure as a means by which to share in the benefits of potential economies of scale as a fund's assets grow. They also considered that not all funds have breakpoints in their fee structures and that breakpoints are not the exclusive means of sharing potential economies of scale. The Board and the Independent Directors considered the Adviser's statement that it believes that breakpoints currently remain inappropriate for the Fund given the ongoing investments the Adviser is making in its business for the benefit of the Fund, uncertainties regarding the direction of the economy, rising inflation, increasing costs for personnel and systems, and growth or contraction in the Fund's assets, all of which could negatively impact the profitability of the Adviser. The Board and the Independent Directors also noted that the Adviser has contractually agreed to reimburse the Fund for Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses in excess of 0.50% of the average daily net assets of the Fund (excluding brokerage fees and commissions, interest, taxes, shareholder service fees, fees and expenses of other funds in which the Fund invests, and extraordinary expenses) through January 31, 2021. The Board and the Independent Directors concluded that the Fund is benefitting from the ongoing investments made by the Adviser in its team of personnel serving the Fund and in the Adviser's service infrastructure, and that in light of these investments, the addition of breakpoints in the Fund's advisory fee structure was not warranted at current asset levels.
Ancillary Benefits. The Board and the Independent Directors considered other actual and potential benefits to the Adviser from managing the Fund, including the acquisition and use of research services with commissions generated by the Fund, in concluding that the contractual advisory and other fees are fair and reasonable for the Fund. They noted that the Adviser does not have any affiliates that benefit from the Adviser's relationship to the Fund..

Conclusions. The Board and the Independent Directors determined that the Fund continues to benefit from the services of the Adviser's highly experienced portfolio management team, which has produced reasonable long-term returns. In addition, the Board and the Independent Directors agreed that the Fund continues to receive high quality services from the Adviser. The Board and the Independent Directors concluded that the current advisory fee rate is reasonable and fair to the Fund and its shareholders in light of the nature and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and the Adviser's profitability and costs. The Board and the Independent Directors also noted their intention to continue monitoring the factors relevant to the Adviser's compensation, such as changes in the Fund's asset levels, changes in portfolio management personnel and the cost and quality of the services provided by the Adviser to the Fund. On the basis of the foregoing, and without assigning particular weight to any single factor, none of which was dispositive, the Board and the Independent Directors concluded that it would be in the best interests of the Fund to continue to be advised and managed by the Adviser and determined to approve the continuation of the current Advisory Agreement for another one-year period through September 30, 2021.

Item 3. Audit Committee Financial Expert.
The registrant’s board of directors has determined that Patrick B. Purcell, who is a member of the registrant’s audit committee and board of directors, is an “audit committee financial expert” and is “independent,” as those terms are defined in this Item. This designation will not increase the designee’s duties, obligations or liability as compared to his duties, obligations or liability as a member of the audit committee and of the board of directors. This designation does not affect the duties, obligations or liability of any other member of the audit committee or the board of directors.
Item 4. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.
| | 2019 | | | 2020 | |
(a) | Audit Fees | | $ | 34,800 | | | $ | 35,500 | |
(b) | Audit Related Fees | | $ | -0- | | | $ | -0- | |
(c) | Tax Fees(1) | | $ | 6,500 | | | $ | 6,600 | |
(d) | All Other Fees | | $ | -0- | | | $ | -0- | |
(1) Tax Fees are for the preparation of the Fund’s tax return(s).
(e)(1) | The audit committee shall pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services that the committee considers compatible with maintaining the independent auditors’ independence. The pre-approval requirement will extend to all non-audit services provided to the registrant, the adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant, if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the registrant; provided, however, that an engagement of the registrant’s independent auditors to perform attest services for the registrant, the adviser or its affiliates required by generally accepted auditing standards to complete the examination of the registrant’s financial statements (such as an examination conducted in accordance with Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements Number 16, or a Successor Statement, issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants), will be deem pre-approved if: |
| (i) | the registrant’s independent auditors inform the audit committee of the engagement, |
| | |
| (ii) | the registrant’s independent auditors advise the audit committee at least annually that the performance of this engagement will not impair the independent auditor’s independence with respect to the registrant, and |
| | |
| (iii) | the audit committee receives a copy of the independent auditor’s report prepared in connection with such services. The committee may delegate to one or more committee members the authority to review and pre-approve audit and permissible non-audit services. Actions taken under any such delegation will be reported to the full committee at its next meeting. |
(e)(2) | 0% of the services provided to the registrant described in paragraphs b—d of this Item were approved by the Audit Committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X. There were no services provided to the investment adviser or any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the adviser described in paragraphs (b) — (d) of this Item that were required to be pre-approved by the audit committee. |
(f) | For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020, if greater than 50%, specify the percentage of hours spent on the audit of the registrant's financial statements for the most recent fiscal year that were attributed to work performed by persons who are not full-time, permanent employees of the principal accountant Ernst & Young LLP (“EY”). According to EY, such amount was below 50%; therefore disclosure item not applicable to this filing. |
(g) | For the fiscal years ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2020, the aggregate non-audit fees billed by EY for services rendered to the investment advisor were $41,250 and $43,500, respectively. |
(h) | The registrant's Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant's investment advisor, which were not pre-approved (not requiring pre-approval), is compatible with maintaining EY's independence. |
Item 5. Audit Committee of Listed Registrants.
Not applicable.
