Commodity Futures Trading Commission Registration. Effective December 31, 2012, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) adopted certain regulatory changes that subject registered investment companies and advisers to regulation by the CFTC if a fund invests more than a prescribed level of its assets in certain CFTC-regulated instruments (including futures, certain options and swap agreements) or markets itself as providing investment exposure to such instruments. The Fund and its adviser have claimed an exclusion from the definition of the term “commodity pool operator” under the Commodity Exchange Act. Accordingly, neither the Fund nor the adviser is subject to CFTC regulation.

Fund shares are not insured by the FDIC and are not deposits or other obligations of, or guaranteed by, any depository institution. Shares are subject to investment risks, including possible loss of principal invested.


This report must be preceded or accompanied by a current summary prospectus or prospectus. Before investing, investors should consider carefully the investment objective, risks, and charges and expenses of a mutual fund. This and other important information is contained in the summary prospectus and prospectus, which can be obtained from a financial advisor. Prospective investors should read the prospectus carefully before investing. For further information, please call 1-800-368-2745.

See Endnotes and Additional Disclosures in this report.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than or equal to one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted. For performance as of the most recent month-end, please refer to www.calvert.com.

Endnotes and Additional Disclosures
 
 
1 
Russell 2000® Index is an unmanaged index of 2,000 U.S. small-cap stocks. Unless otherwise stated, index returns do not reflect the effect of any applicable sales charges, commissions, expenses, taxes or leverage, as applicable. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

2 
Total Returns at NAV do not include applicable sales charges. If sales charges were deducted, the returns would be lower. Total Returns shown with maximum sales charge reflect the stated maximum sales charge. Unless otherwise stated, performance does not reflect the deduction of taxes on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares.

Performance prior to the inception date of a class may be linked to the performance of an older class of the Fund. This linked performance is adjusted for any applicable sales charge, but is not adjusted for class expense differences. If adjusted for such differences, the performance would be different. The performance of Class R6 is linked to Class I. Performance since inception for an index, if presented, is the performance since the Fund’s or oldest share class’ inception, as applicable. Performance presented in the Financial Highlights included in the financial statements is not linked.

Effective December 31, 2016, Calvert Research and Management became the investment adviser to the Fund and performance reflected prior to such date is that of the Fund’s former investment adviser, Calvert Investment Management, Inc.

3 
Source: Fund prospectus. Net expense ratios reflect a contractual expense reimbursement that continues through 1/31/20. Without the reimbursement, performance would have been lower. The expense ratios for the current reporting period can be found in the Financial Highlights section of this report.

4 Does not include Short Term Investment of Cash Collateral for Securities Loaned.

5 Excludes cash and cash equivalents.

Fund profile subject to change due to active management.

FUND EXPENSES
Example
As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The actual expense Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (October 1, 2018 to March 31, 2019) for Class A, Class C and Class I and (February 1, 2019 to March 31, 2019) for Class R6. The hypothetical expense Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested for the one-half year period (October 1, 2018 to March 31, 2019).
Actual Expenses
The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, 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 section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund 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 the 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, such as sales charges (loads) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table 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 be higher.

* Class R6 had not commenced operations on October 1, 2018. Actual expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for the indicated Class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182/365 (to reflect the one-half year period); 59/365 for Class R6 (to reflect the period from the commencement of operations on February 1, 2019 to March 31, 2019). The Example assumes that the $1,000 was invested at the net asset value per share determined at the close of business on September 30, 2018 (February 1, 2019 for Class R6).
** Absent a waiver and/or reimbursement of expenses by an affiliate, expenses would be higher.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Calvert Small-Cap Fund (the Fund) is a diversified series of Calvert Impact Fund, Inc. (the Corporation). The Corporation is a Maryland business corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek to provide long-term capital appreciation through investment primarily in small-cap common stocks of U.S. companies.
The Fund offers four classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. A contingent deferred sales charge of 0.80% may apply to certain redemptions of Class A shares for accounts for which no sales charge was paid, if redeemed within one year of purchase. Class C shares are sold without a front-end sales charge, and with certain exceptions, are charged a contingent deferred sales charge of 1% on shares redeemed within one year of purchase. Class C shares are only available for purchase through a financial intermediary. Effective January 25, 2019, Class C shares generally automatically convert to Class A shares ten years after their purchase as described in the Fund’s prospectus. Class I and Class R6 shares are sold at net asset value, are not subject to a sales charge and are sold only to certain eligible investors. Each class represents a pro rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and is subject to different expenses.
The Fund applies the accounting and reporting guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies (ASC 946). Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements.
A. Investment Valuation: Net asset value per share is determined every business day as of the close of the regular session of the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time). The Fund uses independent pricing services approved by the Board of Directors (the Board) to value its investments wherever possible. Investments for which market quotations are not available or deemed not reliable are fair valued in good faith under the direction of the Board.
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical securities
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)
Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
Valuation techniques used to value the Fund’s investments by major category are as follows:
Equity Securities. Equity securities (including warrants and rights) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and ask prices and are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy.
Debt Securities. Debt securities are generally valued on the basis of valuations provided by third party pricing services, as derived from such services’ pricing models. Inputs to the models may include, but are not limited to, reported trades, executable bid and ask prices, broker/dealer quotations, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, interest rates, anticipated prepayments, benchmark curves or information pertaining to the issuer, as well as industry and economic events. Accordingly, debt securities are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Short-term debt securities of sufficient credit quality purchased with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which a valuation from a third party pricing service is not readily available may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value, and are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy.
Other Securities. Investments in registered investment companies (including money market funds) that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the net asset value per share on the valuation day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
Fair Valuation. If a market value cannot be determined for a security using the methodologies described above, or if, in the good faith opinion of the Fund’s adviser, the market value does not constitute a readily available market quotation, or if a significant event has occurred that would materially affect the value of the security, the security will be fair valued as determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Board in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Fund might

 
www.calvert.com CALVERT SMALL-CAP FUND SEMIANNUAL REPORT (UNAUDITED) 17




reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The values assigned to fair value investments are based on available information and do not necessarily represent amounts that might ultimately be realized. Further, due to the inherent uncertainty of valuations of such investments, the fair values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had an active market existed, and the differences could be material.
The following table summarizes the market value of the Fund’s holdings as of March 31, 2019, based on the inputs used to value them:

(1) None of the unobservable inputs for Level 3 assets, individually or collectively, had a material impact on the Fund.
(2) The level classification by major category of investments is the same as the category presentation in the Schedule of Investments.
Level 3 investments at the beginning and/or end of the period in relation to net assets were not significant and accordingly, a reconciliation of Level 3 assets for the six months ended March 31, 2019 is not presented.
B. Investment Transactions and Income: Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on trade date. Realized gains and losses are recorded on an identified cost basis and may include proceeds from litigation. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities or, in the case of dividends on certain foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends are recorded at the fair value of the securities received. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, if any, have been provided for in accordance with the Fund’s understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates. Distributions received that represent a return of capital are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments. Distributions received that represent a capital gain are recorded as a realized gain. Interest income, which includes amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, is accrued as earned.
C. Share Class Accounting: Realized and unrealized gains and losses and net investment income and losses, other than class-specific expenses, are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Expenses arising in connection with a specific class are charged directly to that class. Sub-accounting, recordkeeping and similar administrative fees payable to financial intermediaries, which are a component of transfer agency fees and expenses on the Statement of Operations, are not allocated to Class R6 shares.
D. Restricted Securities: The Fund may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. Generally, these securities may only be sold publicly upon registration under the Securities Act of 1933 or in transactions exempt from such registration. Information regarding restricted securities (excluding Rule 144A securities) is included at the end of the Schedule of Investments.
E. Distributions to Shareholders: Distributions to shareholders are recorded by the Fund on ex-dividend date. Dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are paid at least annually. Distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from U.S. GAAP; accordingly, periodic reclassifications are made within the Fund’s capital accounts to reflect income and gains available for distribution under income tax regulations.
F. Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G. Indemnifications: The Corporation’s By-Laws provide for indemnification for Directors or officers of the Corporation and certain other parties, to the fullest extent permitted by Maryland law and the 1940 Act, provided certain conditions are met. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain

 
18 www.calvert.com CALVERT SMALL-CAP FUND SEMIANNUAL REPORT (UNAUDITED)




indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
H. Federal Income Taxes: No provision for federal income or excise tax is required since the Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute substantially all of its taxable earnings.
Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the Fund’s financial statements. A Fund’s federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
I. Interim Financial Statements: The interim financial statements relating to March 31, 2019 and for the six months then ended have not been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm, but in the opinion of the Fund’s management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial statements.
NOTE 2 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The investment advisory fee is earned by Calvert Research and Management (CRM), a subsidiary of Eaton Vance Management (EVM), as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Fund. Pursuant to the investment advisory agreement, CRM receives a fee, payable monthly, at the annual rate of 0.68% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. For the six months ended March 31, 2019, the investment advisory fee amounted to $1,425,524.
CRM has agreed to reimburse the Fund’s operating expenses to the extent that total annual operating expenses (relating to ordinary operating expenses only and excluding expenses such as brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses of unaffiliated funds, interest expense, taxes or litigation expenses) exceed 1.21%, 1.96% and 0.96% (1.29%, 2.04% and 0.92% prior to February 1, 2019) of the Fund’s average daily net assets for Class A, Class C and Class I, respectively, and 0.90% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for Class R6. The expense reimbursement agreement with CRM may be changed or terminated after January 31, 2020. For the six months ended March 31, 2019, CRM waived or reimbursed expenses of $179,973.
The administrative fee is earned by CRM as compensation for administrative services rendered to the Fund. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.12% of the Fund’s average daily net assets attributable to Class A, Class C, Class I and Class R6 and is payable monthly. For the six months ended March 31, 2019, CRM was paid administrative fees of $251,563.
The Fund has in effect a distribution plan for Class A shares (Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class A Plan, the Fund pays Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), an affiliate of CRM and the Fund’s principal underwriter, a distribution and service fee of 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. The Fund also has in effect a distribution plan for Class C shares (Class C Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class C Plan, the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. In addition, pursuant to the Class C Plan, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to that class. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued for the six months ended March 31, 2019 amounted to $179,393 and $77,135 for Class A shares and Class C shares, respectively.
The Fund was informed that EVD received $17,168 as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares for the six months ended March 31, 2019. The Fund was also informed that EVD received less than $100 and $1,125 of contingent deferred sales charges (CDSC) paid by Class A and Class C shareholders, respectivly, for the same period.
EVM provides sub-transfer agency and related services to the Fund pursuant to a Sub-Transfer Agency Support Services Agreement. For the six months ended March 31, 2019, sub-transfer agency fees and expenses incurred to EVM amounted to $43,507 and are included in transfer agency fees and expenses on the Statement of Operations.
Each Director of the Fund who is not an employee of CRM or its affiliates receives a fee of $3,000 for each Board meeting attended in person and $2,000 for each Board meeting attended by phone plus an annual fee of $117,000, and $1,500 for each Committee meeting attended in person and $1,000 for each Committee meeting attended by phone plus an annual Committee fee of $2,500. The Board chair receives an additional $15,000 annual retainer and Committee chairs receive an additional $6,000 annual retainer. Eligible Directors may participate in a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan). Amounts deferred under the Plan are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or other Calvert funds selected by the Directors. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected equal to the dollar amounts deferred under the Plan, resulting in an asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Obligations of the Plan are paid solely from the Fund’s assets. Directors’ fees are allocated to each of the Calvert funds served. Salaries and fees of officers and Directors of the Fund who are employees of CRM or its affiliates are paid by CRM. In addition, an advisory council was established to aid the Board and CRM in advancing the cause of responsible investing through original scholarship and thought leadership. The advisory council consists of CRM’s

Chief Executive Officer and four additional members. Each member (other than CRM’s Chief Executive Officer) receives annual compensation of $75,000, which is being reimbursed by Calvert Investment Management, Inc. (CIM), the Calvert funds’ former investment adviser and Ameritas Holding Company, CIM’s parent company, through the end of 2019. For the six months ended March 31, 2019, the Fund’s allocated portion of such expense and reimbursement was $5,675, which are included in miscellaneous expense and reimbursement of expenses-other, respectively, on the Statement of Operations.
NOTE 3 — INVESTMENT ACTIVITY
During the six months ended March 31, 2019, the cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of investments, other than short-term securities, were $158,650,072 and $97,441,602, respectively.
NOTE 4 — DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS AND INCOME TAX INFORMATION
The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments of the Fund at March 31, 2019, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:
Aggregate cost

$425,168,825

Gross unrealized appreciation

$67,975,054

Gross unrealized depreciation
(24,026,375)

Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation)

$43,948,679

NOTE 5 — SECURITIES LENDING
To generate additional income, the Fund may lend its securities pursuant to a securities lending agency agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSB), the securities lending agent. Security loans are subject to termination by the Fund at any time and, therefore, are not considered illiquid investments. The Fund requires that the loan be continuously collateralized by either cash or securities as collateral equal at all times to at least 102% of the market value of the domestic securities loaned and 105% of the market value of the international securities loaned (if applicable). The market value of securities loaned is determined daily and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. Cash collateral is generally invested in a money market fund registered under the 1940 Act that is managed by an affiliate of SSB. Any gain or loss in the market price of the loaned securities that might occur and any interest earned or dividends declared during the term of the loan would accrue to the account of the Fund. Income earned on the investment of collateral, net of broker rebates and other expenses incurred by the securities lending agent, is split between the Fund and the securities lending agent on the basis of agreed upon contractual terms. Non-cash collateral, if any, is held by the lending agent on behalf of the Fund and cannot be sold or re-pledged by the Fund; accordingly, such collateral is not reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
The risks associated with lending portfolio securities include, but are not limited to, possible delays in receiving additional collateral or in the recovery of the loaned securities, possible loss of rights to the collateral should the borrower fail financially, as well as risk of loss in the value of the collateral or the value of the investments made with the collateral. The securities lending agent shall indemnify the Fund in the case of default of any securities borrower.
At March 31, 2019, the total value of securities on loan was $6,416,236 and the total value of collateral received was $6,455,823, comprised of cash of $241,152 and U.S. Government and/or agencies securities of $6,214,671.
The following table provides a breakdown of securities lending transactions accounted for as secured borrowings, the obligations by class of collateral pledged, and the remaining contractual maturity of those transactions as of March 31, 2019.

The carrying amount of the liability for deposits for securities loaned at March 31, 2019 approximated its fair value. If measured at fair value, such liability would have been considered as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy (see Note 1A) at March 31, 2019.
NOTE 6 — LINE OF CREDIT
The Fund participates with other funds managed by CRM in a $62.5 million committed unsecured line of credit agreement with SSB, which is in effect through August 6, 2019. Borrowings may be made for temporary or emergency purposes only. Borrowings bear interest at the higher of the One-Month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) in effect that day or the overnight Federal Funds Rate, plus 1.00% per annum. A commitment fee of 0.20% per annum is incurred on the unused portion of the committed

 
20 www.calvert.com CALVERT SMALL-CAP FUND SEMIANNUAL REPORT (UNAUDITED)




facility. An administrative fee of $37,500 was incurred in connection with the renewal of the facility in August 2018. These fees are allocated to all participating funds. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Fund, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Fund had no borrowings pursuant to this line of credit during the six months ended March 31, 2019.
NOTE 7 — AFFILIATED COMPANIES
The Fund has invested a portion of its assets designated for high social impact investments in notes (the Notes) issued by Calvert Impact Capital, Inc. (CIC), formerly the Calvert Social Investment Foundation, pursuant to an exemptive order granted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) in 1998 (the Exemptive Order). The Fund obtained the Exemptive Order because at that time there was a significant overlap of Fund Board members and CIC Board members as well as certain other affiliations between CIC and affiliates of the Fund’s investment adviser. CIC may be considered an affiliated person of the Fund based on the overlap between CIC’s Board of Directors and the Calvert funds’ Directors/Trustees and other potential affiliations. CIC has licensed use of the Calvert name from CRM, and currently a Fund Board member (who is also CRM’s President and Chief Executive Officer), two members of the Advisory Council to the Calvert Fund Board of Directors/Trustees, and an additional CRM officer serve on CIC’s Board. CIC is not owned or otherwise controlled by CRM or its affiliates. The Fund has filed a request for a new exemptive order from the SEC to permit additional investment in CIC notes.
At March 31, 2019, the value of the Fund’s investment in the Notes was $1,369,885, which represents 0.29% of the Fund’s net assets. Transactions in the Notes by the Fund for the six months ended March 31, 2019 were as follows:

BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ CONTRACT APPROVAL
Overview of the Contract Review Process

The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, provides, in substance, that each investment advisory agreement between a fund and its investment adviser will continue in effect from year to year only if its continuation is approved at least annually by the fund’s board of directors, including by a vote of a majority of the directors who are not “interested persons” of the fund (“Independent Directors”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of considering such approval.
At a meeting of the Boards of Trustees/Directors (each a “Board”) of the registered investment companies advised by Calvert Research and Management (“CRM” or the “Adviser”) (the “Calvert Funds”) held on March 6, 2019, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors, voted to approve continuation of existing investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreements for the Calvert Funds for an additional one-year period.
In evaluating the investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreements for the Calvert Funds, the Board considered a variety of information relating to the Calvert Funds and various service providers, including the Adviser. The Independent Directors reviewed a report prepared by the Adviser regarding various services provided to the Calvert Funds by the Adviser and its affiliates. Such report included, among other data, information regarding the Adviser’s personnel and the Adviser’s revenue and cost of providing services to the Calvert Funds, and a separate report prepared by an independent data provider, which compared each fund’s investment performance, fees and expenses to those of comparable funds as identified by such independent data provider (“comparable funds”).
The Independent Directors were separately represented by independent legal counsel with respect to their consideration of the continuation of the investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreements for the Calvert Funds. Prior to voting, the Independent Directors reviewed the proposed continuation of the Calvert Funds’ investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreements with management and also met in private sessions with their counsel at which time no representatives of management were present.

The information that the Board considered included, among other things, the following (for funds that invest through one or more underlying fund(s), references to “each fund” in this section may include information that was considered at the underlying fund-level):

Information about Fees, Performance and Expenses
A report from an independent data provider comparing the advisory and related fees paid by each fund with fees paid by comparable funds;
A report from an independent data provider comparing each fund’s total expense ratio and its components to comparable funds;
A report from an independent data provider comparing the investment performance of each fund to the investment performance of comparable funds over various time periods;
Data regarding investment performance in comparison to benchmark indices;
For each fund, comparative information concerning the fees charged and the services provided by the Adviser in managing other accounts (including mutual funds, other collective investment funds and institutional accounts) using investment strategies and techniques similar to those used in managing such fund;
Profitability analyses for the Adviser with respect to each fund;

Information about Portfolio Management and Trading
Descriptions of the investment management services provided to each fund, including investment strategies and processes it employs;
Information about the Adviser’s policies and practices with respect to trading, including the Adviser’s processes for monitoring best execution of portfolio transactions;
Information about the allocation of brokerage transactions and the benefits received by the Adviser as a result of brokerage allocation, including information concerning the acquisition of research through client commission arrangements and policies with respect to “soft dollars”;





 
www.calvert.com CALVERT SMALL-CAP FUND SEMIANNUAL REPORT (UNAUDITED) 23




Information about the Adviser
Reports detailing the financial results and condition of CRM;
Descriptions of the qualifications, education and experience of the individual investment professionals whose responsibilities include portfolio management and investment research for the funds, and information relating to their compensation and responsibilities with respect to managing other mutual funds and investment accounts;
Policies and procedures relating to proxy voting and the handling of corporate actions and class actions;
A description of CRM’s procedures for overseeing sub-advisers, including with respect to regulatory and compliance issues, investment management and other matters;

Other Relevant Information
Information concerning the nature, cost and character of the administrative and other non-investment advisory services provided by CRM and its affiliates; and
The terms of each investment advisory agreement.
Over the course of the year, the Board and its committees held regular quarterly meetings. During these meetings, the Directors participated in investment and performance reviews with the portfolio managers and other investment professionals of the Adviser relating to each fund, and considered various investment and trading strategies used in pursuing each fund’s investment objective(s), such as the use of derivative instruments, as well as risk management techniques. The Board and its committees also evaluated issues pertaining to industry and regulatory developments, compliance procedures, corporate governance and other issues with respect to the funds, and received and participated in reports and presentations provided by CRM and its affiliates with respect to such matters. In addition to the formal meetings of the Board and its committees, the Independent Directors held regular teleconferences in between meetings to discuss, among other topics, matters relating to the continuation of the Calvert Funds’ investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreements.
For funds that invest through one or more underlying funds, the Board considered similar information about the underlying fund(s) when considering the approval of investment advisory agreements. In addition, in cases where the Adviser has engaged a sub-adviser, the Board considered similar information about the sub-adviser when considering the approval of any investment sub-advisory agreement.
The Independent Directors were assisted throughout the contract review process by their independent legal counsel. The Independent Directors relied upon the advice of such counsel and their own business judgment in determining the material factors to be considered in evaluating each investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreement and the weight to be given to each such factor. The Board, including the Independent Directors, did not identify any single factor as controlling, and each Director may have attributed different weight to various factors.

Results of the Contract Review Process

Based on its consideration of the foregoing, and such other information as it deemed relevant, including the factors and conclusions described below, the Board, including the Independent Directors, concluded that the continuation of the investment advisory agreement of Calvert Small-Cap Fund (the “Fund”), including the fee payable under the agreement, is in the best interests of the Fund’s shareholders. Accordingly, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors, voted to approve the continuation of the investment advisory agreement of the Fund.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser under the investment advisory agreement, the Board reviewed information provided by the Adviser relating to its operations and personnel, including, among other information, biographical information on the Adviser’s investment personnel and descriptions of its organizational and management structure. The Board also took into account similar information provided periodically throughout the previous year by the Adviser as well as the Board’s familiarity with management through Board meetings, discussions and other reports. The Board considered the Adviser’s management style and its performance in employing its investment strategies as well as its current level of staffing and overall resources. The Board also noted that it reviewed on a quarterly basis information regarding the Adviser’s compliance with applicable policies and procedures, including those related to personal investing. The Board took into account, among other items, periodic reports received from the Adviser over the past year concerning the Adviser’s ongoing review and enhancement of certain processes, policies and procedures of the Calvert Funds and the Adviser. The Board concluded that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund by the Adviser under the investment advisory agreement.

Fund Performance

In considering the Fund’s performance, the Board noted that it reviewed on a quarterly basis detailed information about the Fund’s performance results, portfolio composition and investment strategies. The Board compared the Fund’s investment performance to that of the Fund’s peer universe and its benchmark index. The Board’s review included comparative performance data for the one-, three- and five-year periods ended September 30, 2018. This performance data indicated that the Fund had outperformed the median of the Fund’s peer universe for the one-, three- and five-year periods ended September 30, 2018, outperformed its benchmark index for the one-and five-year periods ended September 30, 2018, and underperformed its benchmark index for the three-year period ended September 30, 2018. Based upon its review, the Board concluded that the Fund’s performance was satisfactory relative to the performance of its peer universe and its benchmark index.

Management Fees and Expenses

In considering the Fund’s fees and expenses, the Board compared the Fund’s fees and total expense ratio with those of comparable funds in its expense group. Among other findings, the data indicated that the Fund’s advisory and administrative fees (after taking into account waivers and/or reimbursements) (referred to collectively as “management fees”) were below the median of the Fund’s expense group and the Fund’s total expenses (net of waivers and/or reimbursements) were below the median of the Fund’s expense group. The Board took into account the Adviser’s current undertaking to maintain expense limitations for the Fund and that the Adviser was waiving and/or reimbursing a portion of the Fund’s expenses. Based upon its review, the Board concluded that the management fees were reasonable in view of the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Adviser.

Profitability and Other “Fall-Out” Benefits

The Board reviewed the Adviser’s profitability in regard to the Fund and the Calvert Funds in the aggregate. In reviewing the overall profitability of the Fund to the Adviser, the Board also considered the fact that the Adviser and its affiliates provided sub-transfer agency support, administrative and distribution services to the Fund for which they received compensation. The information considered by the Board included the profitability of the Fund to the Adviser and its affiliates without regard to any marketing support or other payments by the Adviser and its affiliates to third parties in respect of distribution services. The Board also considered that the Adviser and its affiliates derived benefits to their reputation and other indirect benefits from their relationships with the Fund. Based upon its review, the Board concluded that the Adviser’s and its affiliates’ level of profitability from their relationships with the Fund was reasonable.

Economies of Scale
The Board considered the effect of the Fund’s current size and its potential growth on its performance and fees. The Board concluded that adding breakpoints to the advisory fee at specified asset levels would not be appropriate at this time. The Board noted that if the Fund’s assets increased over time, the Fund might realize other economies of scale if assets increased proportionally more than certain other expenses.

IMPORTANT NOTICES
Privacy. The Calvert Funds and Calvert Research and Management are committed to ensuring your financial privacy. Each of the financial institutions identified below has in effect the following policy (“Privacy Policy”) with respect to nonpublic personal information about its customers:
Only such information received from you, through application forms or otherwise, and information about your Calvert fund transactions will be collected. This may include information such as name, address, social security number, tax status, account balances and transactions.
None of such information about you (or former customers) will be disclosed to anyone, except as permitted by law (which includes disclosure to employees necessary to service your account). In the normal course of servicing a customer’s account, Calvert Research and Management may share information with unaffiliated third parties that perform various required services such as transfer agents, custodians and broker-dealers.
Policies and procedures (including physical, electronic and procedural safeguards) are in place that are designed to protect the confidentiality of such information.
The Funds reserve the right to change this Privacy Policy at any time upon proper notification to you. Customers may want to review the Funds’ Privacy Policy periodically for changes by accessing the link on our homepage: www.calvert.com.
Our pledge of privacy applies to the following entities: the Calvert Family of Funds, Calvert Research and Management and their affiliated service providers, Eaton Vance Management and Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. In addition, our Privacy Policy applies only to those Calvert customers who are individuals and who have a direct relationship with us. If a customer’s account (i.e., fund shares) is held in the name of a third-party financial advisor/broker-dealer, it is likely that only such advisor’s privacy policies apply to the customer. This notice supersedes all previously issued privacy disclosures. For more information about Calvert’s Privacy Policy, please call 1-800-368-2745.
Delivery of Shareholder Documents. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) permits funds to deliver only one copy of shareholder documents, including prospectuses, proxy statements and shareholder reports, to fund investors with multiple accounts at the same residential or post office box address. This practice is often called “householding” and it helps eliminate duplicate mailings to shareholders. Calvert funds, or your financial advisor, may household the mailing of your documents indefinitely unless you instruct Calvert funds, or your financial advisor, otherwise. If you would prefer that your Calvert fund documents not be householded, please contact Calvert funds at 1-800-368-2745, or contact your financial advisor. Your instructions that householding not apply to delivery of your Calvert fund documents will typically be effective within 30 days of receipt by Calvert funds or your financial advisor. Separate statements will be generated for each separate account and will be householded as described above.
Portfolio Holdings. Each Calvert fund files a schedule of portfolio holdings on Part F to Form N-PORT with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year. The Form N-PORT will be available on the Calvert funds’ website at www.calvert.com, by calling Calvert funds at 1-800-368-2745 or in the EDGAR database on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
Proxy Voting. The Proxy Voting Guidelines that each Calvert fund uses to determine how to vote proxies relating to portfolio securities is provided as an Appendix to the fund’s Statement of Additional Information. The Statement of Additional Information can be obtained free of charge by calling the Calvert funds at 1-800-368-2745, by visiting the Calvert funds’ website at www.calvert.com or visiting the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Information regarding how a Calvert fund voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30 is available by calling Calvert funds, by visiting the Calvert funds’ website at www.calvert.com or by visiting the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Commodity Futures Trading Commission Registration. Effective December 31, 2012, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) adopted certain regulatory changes that subject registered investment companies and advisers to regulation by the CFTC if a fund invests more than a prescribed level of its assets in certain CFTC-regulated instruments (including futures, certain options and swap agreements) or markets itself as providing investment exposure to such instruments. Each Fund and its adviser have claimed an exclusion from the definition of the term “commodity pool operator” under the Commodity Exchange Act. Accordingly, neither the Funds nor the adviser is subject to CFTC regulation.


Fund shares are not insured by the FDIC and are not deposits or other obligations of, or guaranteed by, any depository institution. Shares are subject to investment risks, including possible loss of principal invested.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than or equal to one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted.

FUND EXPENSES
Example
As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing 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 period and held for the entire period (October 1, 2018 to March 31, 2019).
Actual Expenses
The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, 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 section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund 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 the 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, such as sales charges (loads) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table 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 be higher.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Calvert Global Energy Solutions Fund (Global Energy Solutions) and Calvert Global Water Fund (Global Water) (each a Fund and collectively, the Funds) are diversified series of Calvert Impact Fund, Inc. (the Corporation). The Corporation is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The investment objective of Global Energy Solutions is to seek to track the performance of the Calvert Global Energy Research Index. Global Energy Solutions invests in equity securities of U.S. and non-U.S. companies whose main business is sustainable energy solutions, or that are significantly involved in the sustainable energy solutions sector. The investment objective of Global Water is to seek to track the performance of the Calvert Global Water Research Index. Global Water invests in equity securities in U.S. and non-U.S. companies whose main business is in the water sector, or that are significantly involved in water-related services or technologies.
Each Fund offers three classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. A contingent deferred sales charge of 0.80% may apply to certain redemptions of Class A shares for accounts for which no sales charge was paid, if redeemed within one year of purchase. Class C shares are sold without a front-end sales charge, and with certain exceptions, are charged a contingent deferred sales charge of 1% on shares redeemed within one year of purchase. Class C shares are only available for purchase through a financial intermediary. Effective January 25, 2019, Class C shares generally automatically convert to Class A shares ten years after their purchase as described in the Funds’ prospectus. Class I shares are sold at net asset value, are not subject to a sales charge and are sold only to certain eligible investors. Each class represents a pro rata interest in each Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and is subject to different expenses.
Each Fund applies the accounting and reporting guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services - Investment Companies (ASC 946). Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements.
A. Investment Valuation: Net asset value per share is determined every business day as of the close of the regular session of the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time). The Funds use independent pricing services approved by the Board of Directors (the Board) to value their investments wherever possible. Investments for which market quotations are not available or deemed not reliable are fair valued in good faith under the direction of the Board.
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical securities
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)
Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including each Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
Valuation techniques used to value each Fund’s investments by major category are as follows:
Equity Securities. Equity securities (including warrants and rights) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and ask prices and are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. The daily valuation of exchange-traded foreign securities generally is determined as of the close of trading on the principal exchange on which such securities trade. Events occurring after the close of trading on foreign exchanges may result in adjustments to the valuation of foreign securities to more accurately reflect their fair value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. When valuing foreign equity securities that meet certain criteria, the Funds’ Board has approved the use of a fair value service that values such securities to reflect market trading that occurs after the close of the applicable foreign markets of comparable securities or other instruments that have a strong correlation to the fair-valued securities. Such securities are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy.
Debt Securities. Debt securities are generally valued on the basis of valuations provided by third party pricing services, as derived from such services’ pricing models. Inputs to the models may include, but are not limited to, reported trades, executable bid and ask prices, broker/dealer quotations, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, interest rates, anticipated

 
www.calvert.com CALVERT GLOBAL ENERGY SOLUTIONS FUND AND CALVERT GLOBAL WATER FUND SEMIANNUAL REPORT (UNAUDITED) 31



prepayments, benchmark curves or information pertaining to the issuer, as well as industry and economic events. Accordingly, debt securities are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Short-term debt securities of sufficient credit quality purchased with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which a valuation from a third party pricing service is not readily available may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value, and are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy.
Other Securities. Investments in registered investment companies (including money market funds) that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the net asset value per share on the valuation day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
Fair Valuation. If a market value cannot be determined for a security using the methodologies described above, or if, in the good faith opinion of the Funds’ adviser, the market value does not constitute a readily available market quotation, or if a significant event has occurred that would materially affect the value of the security, the security will be fair valued as determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Board in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Fund might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The values assigned to fair value investments are based on available information and do not necessarily represent amounts that might ultimately be realized. Further, due to the inherent uncertainty of valuations of such investments, the fair values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had an active market existed, and the differences could be material.
The following tables summarize the market value of each of the Funds’ holdings as of March 31, 2019, based on the inputs used to value them:

Level 3 investments at the beginning and/or end of the period in relation to net assets were not significant and accordingly, a reconciliation of Level 3 assets for the six months ended March 31, 2019 is not presented.
B. Investment Transactions and Income: Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on trade date. Realized gains and losses are recorded on an identified cost basis and may include proceeds from litigation. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities or, in the case of dividends on certain foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends are recorded at the fair value of the securities received. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, if any, have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates. In consideration of recent decisions rendered by European courts, Global Water has filed additional tax reclaims for previously withheld taxes on dividends earned in certain European Union countries. These filings are subject to various administrative and judicial proceedings within these countries. Due to the uncertainty as to the ultimate resolution of these proceedings, the likelihood of receipt of these reclaims, and the potential timing of payment, no amounts are reflected in the financial statements for such outstanding reclaims. Distributions received that represent a return of capital are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments. Distributions received that represent a capital gain are recorded as a realized gain. Interest income, which includes amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, is accrued as earned.
C. Share Class Accounting: Realized and unrealized gains and losses and net investment income and losses, other than class-specific expenses, are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Expenses arising in connection with a specific class are charged directly to that class.
D. Foreign Currency Transactions: The Funds’ accounting records are maintained in U.S. dollars. For valuation of assets and liabilities on each date of net asset value determination, foreign denominations are converted into U.S. dollars using the current exchange rate. Security transactions, income and expenses are translated at the prevailing rate of exchange on the date of the event. Recognized gains or losses on investment transactions attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates are recorded for financial statement purposes as net realized gains and losses on investments. That portion of unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed.
E. Restricted Securities: The Funds may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. Generally, these securities may only be sold publicly upon registration under the Securities Act of 1933 or in transactions exempt from such registration. Information regarding restricted securities (excluding Rule 144A securities) is included at the end of the Schedule of Investments.

 
www.calvert.com CALVERT GLOBAL ENERGY SOLUTIONS FUND AND CALVERT GLOBAL WATER FUND SEMIANNUAL REPORT (UNAUDITED) 33



F. Distributions to Shareholders: Distributions to shareholders are recorded by the Funds on ex-dividend date. Dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are paid at least annually. Distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from U.S. GAAP; accordingly, periodic reclassifications are made within the Funds’ capital accounts to reflect income and gains available for distribution under income tax regulations.
G. Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
H. Indemnifications: The Corporation’s By-Laws provide for indemnification for Directors or officers of the Corporation and certain other parties, to the fullest extent permitted by Maryland law and the 1940 Act, provided certain conditions are met. Additionally, in the normal course of business, each Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. Each Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against each Fund that have not yet occurred.
I. Federal Income Taxes: No provision for federal income or excise tax is required since each Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute substantially all of its taxable earnings.
In addition to the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, each Fund may also be subject to local taxes on the recognition of capital gains in certain countries. In determining the daily net asset value, each Fund estimates the accrual for such taxes, if any, based on the unrealized appreciation on certain portfolio securities and the related tax rates. Taxes attributable to unrealized appreciation are included in the respective Funds’ change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments. Capital gains taxes on securities sold are included in the respective Funds’ net realized gain (loss) on investments.
Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements. Each Fund’s federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
J. Interim Financial Statements: The interim financial statements relating to March 31, 2019 and for the six months then ended have not been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm, but in the opinion of the Funds’ management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial statements.

The Funds have in effect distribution plans for Class A shares (Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class A Plan, each Fund pays Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), an affiliate of CRM and the Funds’ principal underwriter, a distribution and service fee of 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Funds by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. The Funds also have in effect distribution plans for Class C shares (Class C Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class C Plan, each Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Funds. In addition, pursuant to the Class C Plan, each Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to that class. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees for Global Energy Solutions and Global Water paid or accrued for the six months ended March 31, 2019 amounted to $57,632 and $222,032, respectively, for Class A shares. Distribution and service fees for Global Energy Solutions and Global Water paid or accrued for the six months ended March 31, 2019 amounted to $41,652 and $258,567, respectively, for Class C shares.
The Funds were informed that EVD received $4,391 and $16,338 for Global Energy Solutions and Global Water, respectively, as their portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares paid by each Fund’s shareholders for the six months ended March 31, 2019.

EVM provides sub-transfer agency and related services to the Funds pursuant to a Sub-Transfer Agency Support Services Agreement. For the six months ended March 31, 2019, sub-transfer agency fees and expenses for Global Energy Solutions and Global Water incurred to EVM amounted to $29,910 and $56,350, respectively, and are included in transfer agency fees and expenses on the Statements of Operations.
Each Director of the Funds who is not an employee of CRM or its affiliates receives a fee of $3,000 for each Board meeting attended in person and $2,000 for each Board meeting attended by phone plus an annual fee of $117,000, and $1,500 for each Committee meeting attended in person and $1,000 for each Committee meeting attended by phone plus an annual Committee fee of $2,500. The Board chair receives an additional $15,000 annual retainer and Committee chairs receive an additional $6,000 annual retainer. Eligible Directors may participate in a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan). Amounts deferred under the Plan are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Funds or other Calvert funds selected by the Directors. The Funds purchase shares of the funds selected equal to the dollar amounts deferred under the Plan, resulting in an asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Obligations of the Plan are paid solely from the Funds’ assets. Directors’ fees are allocated to each of the Calvert funds served. Salaries and fees of officers and Directors of the Funds who are employees of CRM or their affiliates are paid by CRM. In addition, an advisory council was established to aid the Board and CRM in advancing the cause of responsible investing through original scholarship and thought leadership. The advisory council consists of CRM’s Chief Executive Officer and four additional members.

NOTE 4 — DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS AND INCOME TAX INFORMATION
At September 30, 2018, the Funds, for federal income tax purposes, had the following capital loss carryforwards and deferred capital losses which would reduce the respective Fund’s taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investment transactions, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus would reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders, which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Funds of any liability for federal income or excise tax. The deferred capital losses are treated as arising on the first day of the Funds’ next taxable year and retain the same short-term or long-term character as when originally deferred.
The amounts and expiration dates of the capital loss carryforwards, whose character is short-term, and the amounts of the deferred capital losses are as follows:

Under tax regulations, capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 2010 can be carried forward to offset future capital gains for an unlimited period. These losses are required to be used prior to capital loss carryforwards, which carry an expiration date. As a result of this ordering rule, capital loss carryforwards may be more likely to expire unused.
The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments of the Funds at March 31, 2019, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:

NOTE 5 — SECURITIES LENDING
To generate additional income, the Funds may lend their securities pursuant to a securities lending agency agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSB), the securities lending agent. Security loans are subject to termination by the Funds at any time and, therefore, are not considered illiquid investments. The Funds require that the loan be continuously collateralized by either cash or securities as collateral equal at all times to at least 102% of the market value of the domestic securities loaned and 105% of the market value of the international securities loaned (if applicable). The market value of securities loaned is determined daily and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. Cash collateral is generally invested in a money market fund registered under the 1940 Act that is managed by an affiliate of SSB. Any gain or loss in the market price of the loaned securities that might occur and any interest earned or dividends declared during the term of the loan would accrue to the account of the Funds. Income earned on the investment of collateral, net of broker rebates and other expenses incurred by the securities lending agent, is split between the Funds and the securities lending agent on the basis of agreed upon contractual terms. Non-cash collateral, if any, is held by the lending agent on behalf of the Fund and cannot be sold or re-pledged by the Fund; accordingly, such collateral is not reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
The risks associated with lending portfolio securities include, but are not limited to, possible delays in receiving additional collateral or in the recovery of the loaned securities, possible loss of rights to the collateral should the borrower fail financially, as well as risk of loss in the value of the collateral or the value of the investments made with the collateral. The securities lending agent shall indemnify the Funds in the case of default of any securities borrower.

The carrying amounts of the liabilities for deposits for securities loaned at March 31, 2019 approximated their fair value. If measured at fair value, such liabilities would have been considered as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy (see Note 1A) at March 31, 2019.
NOTE 6 — LINE OF CREDIT
The Funds participate with other funds managed by CRM in a $62.5 million committed unsecured line of credit agreement with SSB, which is in effect through August 6, 2019. Borrowings may be made for temporary or emergency purposes only. Borrowings bear interest at the higher of the One-Month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) in effect that day or the overnight Federal Funds Rate, plus 1.00% per annum. A commitment fee of 0.20% per annum is incurred on the unused portion of the committed facility. An administrative fee of $37,500 was incurred in connection with the renewal of the facility in August 2018. These fees are allocated to all participating funds. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Funds, a Fund may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. At March 31, 2019, Global Water had a balance outstanding pursuant to this line of credit of $180,697 at an interest rate of 3.49%. Based on the short-term nature of the borrowings under the line of credit and variable interest rate, the carrying value of the borrowings approximated its fair value at March 31, 2019. If measured at fair value, borrowings under the line of credit would have been considered as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy (see Note 1A) at March 31, 2019. The Funds did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the six months ended March 31, 2019.
NOTE 7 — AFFILIATED COMPANIES
The Funds have invested a portion of their assets designated for high social impact investments in notes (the Notes) issued by Calvert Impact Capital, Inc. (CIC), formerly the Calvert Social Investment Foundation, pursuant to an exemptive order granted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) in 1998 (the Exemptive Order). The Funds obtained the Exemptive Order because at that time there was a significant overlap of Fund Board members and CIC Board members as well as certain other affiliations between CIC and affiliates of the Funds’ investment adviser. CIC may be considered an affiliated person of the Funds based on the overlap between CIC’s Board of Directors and the Calvert funds’ Directors/Trustees and other potential affiliations. CIC has licensed use of the Calvert name from CRM, and currently a Fund Board member (who is also CRM’s President and Chief Executive Officer), two members of the Advisory Council to the Calvert Fund Board of Directors/Trustees, and an additional CRM officer serve on CIC’s Board. CIC is not owned or otherwise controlled by CRM or its affiliates. The Funds have filed a request for a new exemptive order from the SEC to permit additional investment in CIC notes.
At March 31, 2019, the value of the Funds’ investment in the Notes was $1,758,888 for Global Energy Solutions, which represents 2.2% of its net assets and $977,160 for Global Water, which represents 0.2% of its net assets. Transactions in the Notes by the Funds for the six months ended March 31, 2019 were as follows:

NOTE 9 — RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FOREIGN INVESTMENTS
Investing in foreign securities involves additional risks relating to political, social, and economic developments abroad. Other risks result from differences between regulations that apply to U.S. and foreign issuers and markets, and the potential for foreign markets to be less liquid and more volatile than U.S. markets. Securities that trade or are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be adversely affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates.
The risks of investing in emerging market securities are greater than those of investing in securities of developed foreign countries. These risks include volatile currency exchange rates, periods of high inflation, increased risk of default, greater social, economic and political uncertainty and instability, less governmental supervision and regulation of securities markets, weaker auditing and financial reporting standards, lack of liquidity in the markets, and the significantly smaller market capitalization of emerging market issuers.
NOTE 10 — CONCENTRATION RISK
Global Energy Solutions concentrates its investments in the sustainable energy solutions industry. This industry can be significantly affected by obsolescence of existing technology, short product lifecycles, falling prices and profits, competition from new market entrants and general economic conditions. The industry can also be significantly affected by fluctuations in energy prices and supply and demand of alternative energy fuels, energy conservation, the success of exploration projects and tax and other government regulations and policies. Companies in this industry could be adversely affected by commodity price volatility, imposition of import controls, increased competition, depletion of resources, technological developments and labor relations.

 
40 www.calvert.com CALVERT GLOBAL ENERGY SOLUTION FUND AND CALVERT GLOBAL WATER FUND SEMIANNUAL REPORT (UNAUDITED)



Global Water concentrates its investments in the water industry. This industry can be significantly affected by economic trends or other conditions or developments, such as the availability of water, the level of rainfall and occurrence of other climatic events, changes in water consumption, new technologies relating to the supply of water, and water conservation. The industry can also be significantly affected by environmental considerations, taxation, government regulation (including the increased cost of compliance), inflation, increases in interest rates, price and supply fluctuations, increases in the cost of raw materials and other operating costs, technological advances, and competition from new market entrants.

CALVERT GLOBAL ENERGY SOLUTIONS FUND
BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ CONTRACT APPROVAL
Overview of the Contract Review Process

The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, provides, in substance, that each investment advisory agreement between a fund and its investment adviser will continue in effect from year to year only if its continuation is approved at least annually by the fund’s board of directors, including by a vote of a majority of the directors who are not “interested persons” of the fund (“Independent Directors”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of considering such approval.
At a meeting of the Boards of Trustees/Directors (each a “Board”) of the registered investment companies advised by Calvert Research and Management (“CRM” or the “Adviser”) (the “Calvert Funds”) held on March 6, 2019, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors, voted to approve continuation of existing investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreements for the Calvert Funds for an additional one-year period.
In evaluating the investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreements for the Calvert Funds, the Board considered a variety of information relating to the Calvert Funds and various service providers, including the Adviser. The Independent Directors reviewed a report prepared by the Adviser regarding various services provided to the Calvert Funds by the Adviser and its affiliates. Such report included, among other data, information regarding the Adviser’s personnel and the Adviser’s revenue and cost of providing services to the Calvert Funds, and a separate report prepared by an independent data provider, which compared each fund’s investment performance, fees and expenses to those of comparable funds as identified by such independent data provider (“comparable funds”).
The Independent Directors were separately represented by independent legal counsel with respect to their consideration of the continuation of the investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreements for the Calvert Funds. Prior to voting, the Independent Directors reviewed the proposed continuation of the Calvert Funds’ investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreements with management and also met in private sessions with their counsel at which time no representatives of management were present.

The information that the Board considered included, among other things, the following (for funds that invest through one or more underlying fund(s), references to “each fund” in this section may include information that was considered at the underlying fund-level):

Information about Fees, Performance and Expenses
A report from an independent data provider comparing the advisory and related fees paid by each fund with fees paid by comparable funds;
A report from an independent data provider comparing each fund’s total expense ratio and its components to comparable funds;
A report from an independent data provider comparing the investment performance of each fund to the investment performance of comparable funds over various time periods;
Data regarding investment performance in comparison to benchmark indices;
For each fund, comparative information concerning the fees charged and the services provided by the Adviser in managing other accounts (including mutual funds, other collective investment funds and institutional accounts) using investment strategies and techniques similar to those used in managing such fund;
Profitability analyses for the Adviser with respect to each fund;

Information about Portfolio Management and Trading
Descriptions of the investment management services provided to each fund, including investment strategies and processes it employs;
Information about the Adviser’s policies and practices with respect to trading, including the Adviser’s processes for monitoring best execution of portfolio transactions;
Information about the allocation of brokerage transactions and the benefits received by the Adviser as a result of brokerage allocation, including information concerning the acquisition of research through client commission arrangements and policies with respect to “soft dollars”;



 
42 www.calvert.com CALVERT GLOBAL ENERGY SOLUTION FUND AND CALVERT GLOBAL WATER FUND SEMIANNUAL REPORT (UNAUDITED)





Information about the Adviser
Reports detailing the financial results and condition of CRM;
Descriptions of the qualifications, education and experience of the individual investment professionals whose responsibilities include portfolio management and investment research for the funds, and information relating to their compensation and responsibilities with respect to managing other mutual funds and investment accounts;
Policies and procedures relating to proxy voting and the handling of corporate actions and class actions;
A description of CRM’s procedures for overseeing sub-advisers, including with respect to regulatory and compliance issues, investment management and other matters;

Other Relevant Information
Information concerning the nature, cost and character of the administrative and other non-investment advisory services provided by CRM and its affiliates; and
The terms of each investment advisory agreement.

Over the course of the year, the Board and its committees held regular quarterly meetings. During these meetings, the Directors participated in investment and performance reviews with the portfolio managers and other investment professionals of the Adviser relating to each fund, and considered various investment and trading strategies used in pursuing each fund’s investment
objective(s), such as the use of derivative instruments, as well as risk management techniques. The Board and its committees also evaluated issues pertaining to industry and regulatory developments, compliance procedures, corporate governance and other issues with respect to the funds, and received and participated in reports and presentations provided by CRM and its affiliates with respect to such matters. In addition to the formal meetings of the Board and its committees, the Independent Directors held regular teleconferences in between meetings to discuss, among other topics, matters relating to the continuation of the Calvert Funds’ investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreements.

For funds that invest through one or more underlying funds, the Board considered similar information about the underlying
fund(s) when considering the approval of investment advisory agreements. In addition, in cases where the Adviser has engaged a sub-adviser, the Board considered similar information about the sub-adviser when considering the approval of any investment sub-advisory agreement.

The Independent Directors were assisted throughout the contract review process by their independent legal counsel. The Independent Directors relied upon the advice of such counsel and their own business judgment in determining the material factors to be considered in evaluating each investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreement and the weight to be given to each such factor. The Board, including the Independent Directors, did not identify any single factor as controlling, and each Director may have attributed different weight to various factors.

Results of the Contract Review Process

Based on its consideration of the foregoing, and such other information as it deemed relevant, including the factors and conclusions described below, the Board, including the Independent Directors, concluded that the continuation of the investment advisory agreement of Calvert Global Energy Solutions Fund (the “Fund”), including the fee payable under the agreement, is in the best interests of the Fund’s shareholders. Accordingly, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors, voted to approve the continuation of the investment advisory agreement of the Fund.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser under the investment advisory agreement, the Board reviewed information provided by the Adviser relating to its operations and personnel, including, among other information, biographical information on the Adviser’s investment personnel and descriptions of its organizational and management structure. The Board also took into account similar information provided periodically throughout the previous year by the Adviser as well as the Board’s familiarity with management through Board meetings, discussions and other reports. The Board considered the Adviser’s management style and its performance in employing its investment strategies as well as its current level of staffing and overall resources. The Board also noted that it reviewed on a quarterly basis information regarding the Adviser’s compliance with applicable policies and procedures, including those related to personal investing. The Board took into account, among other items, periodic reports received from the Adviser over the past year concerning the Adviser’s ongoing review and enhancement of certain processes, policies and procedures of the Calvert Funds and the Adviser. The Board concluded that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund by the Adviser under the investment advisory agreement.

Fund Performance

In considering the Fund’s performance, the Board noted that it reviewed on a quarterly basis detailed information about the Fund’s performance results, portfolio composition and investment strategies. The Board compared the Fund’s investment performance to that of the Fund’s peer universe and the index it is designed to track. The Board’s review included comparative performance data for the one-, three- and five-year periods ended September 30, 2018. This performance data indicated that the Fund had underperformed the median of the Fund’s peer universe and the index it is designed to track for the one-, three- and five-year periods ended September 30, 2018. The Board took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s performance and management’s continued monitoring of the Fund’s performance. Based upon its review, the Board concluded that the Fund’s performance was satisfactory relative to the performance of its peer universe and its benchmark index.

Management Fees and Expenses

In considering the Fund’s fees and expenses, the Board compared the Fund’s fees and total expense ratio with those of comparable funds in its expense group. Among other findings, the data indicated that the Fund’s advisory and administrative fees (after taking into account waivers and/or reimbursements) (referred to collectively as “management fees”) were below the median of the Fund’s expense group and the Fund’s total expenses (net of waivers and/or reimbursements) were below the median of the Fund’s expense group. The Board took into account the Adviser’s current undertaking to maintain expense limitations for the Fund and that the Adviser was waiving and/or reimbursing a portion of the Fund’s expenses. Based upon its review, the Board concluded that the management fees were reasonable in view of the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Adviser.

Profitability and Other “Fall-Out” Benefits

The Board reviewed the Adviser’s profitability in regard to the Fund and the Calvert Funds in the aggregate. In reviewing the overall profitability of the Fund to the Adviser, the Board also considered the fact that the Adviser and its affiliates provided sub-transfer agency support, administrative and distribution services to the Fund for which they received compensation. The information considered by the Board included the profitability of the Fund to the Adviser and its affiliates without regard to any marketing support or other payments by the Adviser and its affiliates to third parties in respect of distribution services. The Board also considered that the Adviser and its affiliates derived benefits to their reputation and other indirect benefits from their relationships with the Fund. Based upon its review, the Board concluded that the Adviser’s and its affiliates’ level of profitability from their relationships with the Fund was reasonable.

Economies of Scale
The Board considered the effect of the Fund’s current size and its potential growth on its performance and fees. The Board concluded that adding breakpoints to the advisory fee at specified asset levels would not be appropriate at this time. The Board noted that if the Fund’s assets increased over time, the Fund might realize other economies of scale if assets increased proportionally more than certain other expenses.

CALVERT GLOBAL WATER FUND
BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ CONTRACT APPROVAL
Overview of the Contract Review Process

The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, provides, in substance, that each investment advisory agreement between a fund and its investment adviser will continue in effect from year to year only if its continuation is approved at least annually by the fund’s board of directors, including by a vote of a majority of the directors who are not “interested persons” of the fund (“Independent Directors”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of considering such approval.
At a meeting of the Boards of Trustees/Directors (each a “Board”) of the registered investment companies advised by Calvert Research and Management (“CRM” or the “Adviser”) (the “Calvert Funds”) held on March 6, 2019, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors, voted to approve continuation of existing investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreements for the Calvert Funds for an additional one-year period.
In evaluating the investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreements for the Calvert Funds, the Board considered a variety of information relating to the Calvert Funds and various service providers, including the Adviser. The Independent Directors reviewed a report prepared by the Adviser regarding various services provided to the Calvert Funds by the Adviser and its affiliates. Such report included, among other data, information regarding the Adviser’s personnel and the Adviser’s revenue and cost of providing services to the Calvert Funds, and a separate report prepared by an independent data provider, which compared each fund’s investment performance, fees and expenses to those of comparable funds as identified by such independent data provider (“comparable funds”).
The Independent Directors were separately represented by independent legal counsel with respect to their consideration of the continuation of the investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreements for the Calvert Funds. Prior to voting, the Independent Directors reviewed the proposed continuation of the Calvert Funds’ investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreements with management and also met in private sessions with their counsel at which time no representatives of management were present.

The information that the Board considered included, among other things, the following (for funds that invest through one or more underlying fund(s), references to “each fund” in this section may include information that was considered at the underlying fund-level):

Information about Fees, Performance and Expenses
A report from an independent data provider comparing the advisory and related fees paid by each fund with fees paid by comparable funds;
A report from an independent data provider comparing each fund’s total expense ratio and its components to comparable funds;
A report from an independent data provider comparing the investment performance of each fund to the investment performance of comparable funds over various time periods;
Data regarding investment performance in comparison to benchmark indices;
For each fund, comparative information concerning the fees charged and the services provided by the Adviser in managing other accounts (including mutual funds, other collective investment funds and institutional accounts) using investment strategies and techniques similar to those used in managing such fund;
Profitability analyses for the Adviser with respect to each fund;

Information about Portfolio Management and Trading
Descriptions of the investment management services provided to each fund, including investment strategies and processes it employs;
Information about the Adviser’s policies and practices with respect to trading, including the Adviser’s processes for monitoring best execution of portfolio transactions;
Information about the allocation of brokerage transactions and the benefits received by the Adviser as a result of brokerage allocation, including information concerning the acquisition of research through client commission arrangements and policies with respect to “soft dollars”;

Information about the Adviser
Reports detailing the financial results and condition of CRM;
Descriptions of the qualifications, education and experience of the individual investment professionals whose responsibilities include portfolio management and investment research for the funds, and information relating to their compensation and responsibilities with respect to managing other mutual funds and investment accounts;
Policies and procedures relating to proxy voting and the handling of corporate actions and class actions;
A description of CRM’s procedures for overseeing sub-advisers, including with respect to regulatory and compliance issues, investment management and other matters;

Other Relevant Information
Information concerning the nature, cost and character of the administrative and other non-investment advisory services provided by CRM and its affiliates; and
The terms of each investment advisory agreement.

Over the course of the year, the Board and its committees held regular quarterly meetings. During these meetings, the Directors participated in investment and performance reviews with the portfolio managers and other investment professionals of the Adviser relating to each fund, and considered various investment and trading strategies used in pursuing each fund’s investment
objective(s), such as the use of derivative instruments, as well as risk management techniques. The Board and its committees also evaluated issues pertaining to industry and regulatory developments, compliance procedures, corporate governance and other issues with respect to the funds, and received and participated in reports and presentations provided by CRM and its affiliates with respect to such matters. In addition to the formal meetings of the Board and its committees, the Independent Directors held regular teleconferences in between meetings to discuss, among other topics, matters relating to the continuation of the Calvert Funds’ investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreements.

For funds that invest through one or more underlying funds, the Board considered similar information about the underlying
fund(s) when considering the approval of investment advisory agreements. In addition, in cases where the Adviser has engaged a sub-adviser, the Board considered similar information about the sub-adviser when considering the approval of any investment sub-advisory agreement.

The Independent Directors were assisted throughout the contract review process by their independent legal counsel. The Independent Directors relied upon the advice of such counsel and their own business judgment in determining the material factors to be considered in evaluating each investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreement and the weight to be given to each such factor. The Board, including the Independent Directors, did not identify any single factor as controlling, and each Director may have attributed different weight to various factors.

Results of the Contract Review Process

Based on its consideration of the foregoing, and such other information as it deemed relevant, including the factors and conclusions described below, the Board, including the Independent Directors, concluded that the continuation of the investment advisory agreement of Calvert Global Water Fund (the “Fund”), including the fee payable under the agreement, is in the best interests of the Fund’s shareholders. Accordingly, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors, voted to approve the continuation of the investment advisory agreement of the Fund.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser under the investment advisory agreement, the Board reviewed information provided by the Adviser relating to its operations and personnel, including, among other information, biographical information on the Adviser’s investment personnel and descriptions of its organizational and management structure. The Board also took into account similar information provided periodically throughout the previous year by the Adviser as well as the Board’s familiarity with management through Board meetings, discussions and other reports. The Board considered the Adviser’s management style and its performance in employing its investment strategies as well as its current level of staffing and overall resources. The Board also noted that it reviewed on a quarterly basis information regarding the Adviser’s compliance with applicable policies and procedures, including those related to personal investing. The Board took into account, among other items, periodic reports received from the Adviser over the past year concerning the Adviser’s ongoing review and enhancement of certain processes, policies and procedures of the Calvert Funds and the Adviser. The Board concluded that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund by the Adviser under the investment advisory agreement.

Fund Performance

In considering the Fund’s performance, the Board noted that it reviewed on a quarterly basis detailed information about the Fund’s performance results, portfolio composition and investment strategies. The Board compared the Fund’s investment performance to that of the Fund’s peer universe and the index it is designed to track. The Board’s review included comparative performance data for the one-, three- and five-year periods ended September 30, 2018. This performance data indicated that the Fund had underperformed the median of its peer universe for the one-year period ended September 30, 2018, outperformed the median of its peer universe for the three- and five-year periods ended September 30, 2018 and underperformed the index it is designed to track for the one-, three- and five-year periods ended September 30, 2018. Based upon its review, the Board concluded that the Fund’s performance was satisfactory relative to the performance of its peer universe and its benchmark index.

Management Fees and Expenses

In considering the Fund’s fees and expenses, the Board compared the Fund’s fees and total expense ratio with those of comparable funds in its expense group. Among other findings, the data indicated that the Fund’s advisory and administrative fees (after taking into account waivers and/or reimbursements) (referred to collectively as “management fees”) were below the median of the Fund’s expense group and the Fund’s total expenses (net of waivers and/or reimbursements) were below the median of the Fund’s expense group. The Board took into account the Adviser’s current undertaking to maintain expense limitations for the Fund and that the Adviser was waiving and/or reimbursing a portion of the Fund’s expenses. Based upon its review, the Board concluded that the management fees were reasonable in view of the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Adviser.

Profitability and Other “Fall-Out” Benefits

The Board reviewed the Adviser’s profitability in regard to the Fund and the Calvert Funds in the aggregate. In reviewing the overall profitability of the Fund to the Adviser, the Board also considered the fact that the Adviser and its affiliates provided sub-transfer agency support, administrative and distribution services to the Fund for which they received compensation. The information considered by the Board included the profitability of the Fund to the Adviser and its affiliates without regard to any marketing support or other payments by the Adviser and its affiliates to third parties in respect of distribution services. The Board also considered that the Adviser and its affiliates derived benefits to their reputation and other indirect benefits from their relationships with the Fund. Based upon its review, the Board concluded that the Adviser’s and its affiliates’ level of profitability from their relationships with the Fund was reasonable.

Economies of Scale
The Board considered the effect of the Fund’s current size and its potential growth on its performance and fees. The Board also took into account the breakpoint in the advisory fee schedule for the Fund that would reduce the advisory fee rate on assets above a specific asset level. The Board noted that if the Fund’s assets increased over time, the Fund might realize other economies of scale if assets increased proportionally more than certain other expenses.

Only such information received from you, through application forms or otherwise, and information about your Calvert fund transactions will be collected. This may include information such as name, address, social security number, tax status, account balances and transactions.
None of such information about you (or former customers) will be disclosed to anyone, except as permitted by law (which includes disclosure to employees necessary to service your account). In the normal course of servicing a customer’s account, Calvert Research and Management may share information with unaffiliated third parties that perform various required services such as transfer agents, custodians and broker-dealers.
Policies and procedures (including physical, electronic and procedural safeguards) are in place that are designed to protect the confidentiality of such information.
The Funds reserve the right to change this Privacy Policy at any time upon proper notification to you. Customers may want to review the Funds’ Privacy Policy periodically for changes by accessing the link on our homepage: www.calvert.com.
Our pledge of privacy applies to the following entities: the Calvert Family of Funds, Calvert Research and Management and their affiliated service providers, Eaton Vance Management and Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. In addition, our Privacy Policy applies only to those Calvert customers who are individuals and who have a direct relationship with us. If a customer’s account (i.e., fund shares) is held in the name of a third-party financial advisor/broker-dealer, it is likely that only such advisor’s privacy policies apply to the customer. This notice supersedes all previously issued privacy disclosures. For more information about Calvert’s Privacy Policy, please call 1-800-368-2745.
Delivery of Shareholder Documents. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) permits funds to deliver only one copy of shareholder documents, including prospectuses, proxy statements and shareholder reports, to fund investors with multiple accounts at the same residential or post office box address. This practice is often called “householding” and it helps eliminate duplicate mailings to shareholders. Calvert funds, or your financial advisor, may household the mailing of your documents indefinitely unless you instruct Calvert funds, or your financial advisor, otherwise. If you would prefer that your Calvert fund documents not be householded, please contact Calvert funds at 1-800-368-2745, or contact your financial advisor. Your instructions that householding not apply to delivery of your Calvert fund documents will typically be effective within 30 days of receipt by Calvert funds or your financial advisor. Separate statements will be generated for each separate account and will be householded as described above.
Portfolio Holdings. Each Calvert fund files a schedule of portfolio holdings on Part F to Form N-PORT with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year. The Form N-PORT will be available on the Calvert funds’ website at www.calvert.com, by calling Calvert funds at 1-800-368-2745 or in the EDGAR database on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
Proxy Voting. The Proxy Voting Guidelines that each Calvert fund uses to determine how to vote proxies relating to portfolio securities is provided as an Appendix to the fund’s Statement of Additional Information. The Statement of Additional Information can be obtained free of charge by calling the Calvert funds at 1-800-368-2745, by visiting the Calvert funds’ website at www.calvert.com or visiting the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Information regarding how a Calvert fund voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30 is available by calling Calvert funds, by visiting the Calvert funds’ website at www.calvert.com or by visiting the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Commodity Futures Trading Commission Registration. Effective December 31, 2012, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) adopted certain regulatory changes that subject registered investment companies and advisers to regulation by the CFTC if a fund invests more than a prescribed level of its assets in certain CFTC-regulated instruments (including futures, certain options and swap agreements) or markets itself as providing investment exposure to such instruments. The Fund and its adviser have claimed an exclusion from the definition of the term “commodity pool operator” under the Commodity Exchange Act. Accordingly, neither the Fund nor the adviser is subject to CFTC regulation.

Fund shares are not insured by the FDIC and are not deposits or other obligations of, or guaranteed by, any depository institution. Shares are subject to investment risks, including possible loss of principal invested.

See Endnotes and Additional Disclosures in this report.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than or equal to one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted. For performance as of the most recent month-end, please refer to www.calvert.com.

ICE BofAML Green Bond Index - Hedged USD tracks the performance of securities issued for qualified “green” purposes. Qualifying bonds must have a clearly designated use of proceeds that is solely applied toward projects or activities that promote climate change mitigation or adaptation or other environmental sustainability purposes. ICE BofAML 3-Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index is an unmanaged index of U.S. Treasury securities maturing in 90 days. ICE® BofAML® indices are not for redistribution or other uses; provided “as is”, without warranties, and with no liability. Eaton Vance has prepared this report and ICE Data Indices, LLC does not endorse it, or guarantee, review, or endorse Eaton Vance’s products. BofAML® is a licensed registered trademark of Bank of America Corporation in the United States and other countries. Unless otherwise stated, index returns do not reflect the effect of any applicable sales charges, commissions, expenses, taxes or leverage, as applicable. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

Total Returns at NAV do not include applicable sales charges. If sales charges were deducted, the returns would be lower. Total Returns shown with maximum sales charge reflect the stated maximum sales charge. Unless otherwise stated, performance does not reflect the deduction of taxes on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares.

Performance prior to the inception date of a class may be linked to the performance of an older class of the Fund. This linked performance is adjusted for any applicable sales charge, but is not adjusted for class expense differences. If adjusted for such differences, the performance would be different. The performance of Class R6 is linked to Class I. Performance since inception for an index, if presented, is the performance since the Fund’s or oldest share class’ inception, as applicable. Performance presented in the Financial Highlights included in the financial statements is not linked.

Effective December 31, 2016, Calvert Research and Management became the investment adviser to the Fund and performance reflected prior to such date is that of the Fund’s former investment adviser, Calvert Investment Management, Inc.

FUND EXPENSES
Example
As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The actual expense Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (October 1, 2018 to March 31, 2019) for Class A and Class I and (February 1, 2019 to March 31, 2019) for Class R6. The hypothetical expense Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested for the one-half year period (October 1, 2018 to March 31, 2019).
Actual Expenses
The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, 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 section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund 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 the 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, such as sales charges (loads) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table 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 be higher.

* Class R6 had not commenced operations on October 1, 2018. Actual expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for the indicated Class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182/365 (to reflect the one-half year period); 59/365 for Class R6 (to reflect the period from the commencement of operations on February 1, 2019 to March 31, 2019). The Example assumes that the $1,000 was invested at the net asset value per share determined at the close of business on September 30, 2018 (February 1, 2019 for Class R6).
** Absent a waiver and/or reimbursement of expenses by an affiliate, expenses would be higher.
*** Hypothetical expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for the indicated Class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Calvert Green Bond Fund (the Fund) is a diversified series of Calvert Impact Fund, Inc. (the Corporation). The Corporation is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek to maximize income, to the extent consistent with preservation of capital, primarily through investment in bonds. The Fund invests primarily in “green” investments which include those issued by companies that develop or provide products or services that seek to provide environmental solutions and/or that support environmental projects, among others.
The Fund offers three classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. A contingent deferred sales charge of 0.80% may apply to certain redemptions of Class A shares for accounts for which no sales charge was paid, if redeemed within one year of purchase. Class I and Class R6 shares are sold at net asset value, are not subject to a sales charge and are sold only to certain eligible investors. Each class represents a pro rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and is subject to different expenses.
The Fund applies the accounting and reporting guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies (ASC 946). Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements.
A. Investment Valuation: Net asset value per share is determined every business day as of the close of the regular session of the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time). The Fund uses independent pricing services approved by the Board of Directors (the Board) to value its investments wherever possible. Investments for which market quotations are not available or deemed not reliable are fair valued in good faith under the direction of the Board.
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical securities
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)
Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
Valuation techniques used to value the Fund’s investments by major category are as follows:
Debt Securities. Debt securities are generally valued on the basis of valuations provided by third party pricing services, as derived from such services’ pricing models. Inputs to the models may include, but are not limited to, reported trades, executable bid and ask prices, broker/dealer quotations, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, interest rates, anticipated prepayments, benchmark curves or information pertaining to the issuer, as well as industry and economic events. Accordingly, debt securities are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Short-term debt securities of sufficient credit quality purchased with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which a valuation from a third party pricing service is not readily available may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value, and are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy.
Other Securities. Investments in registered investment companies (including money market funds) that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the net asset value per share on the valuation day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
Derivatives. Futures contracts are valued at unrealized appreciation (depreciation) based on the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are generally valued at the mean of the average bid and average ask prices that are reported by currency dealers to a third party pricing service at the valuation time. Such third party pricing service valuations are supplied for specific settlement periods and the Fund’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued at an interpolated rate between the closest preceding and subsequent settlement period reported by the third party pricing service and are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy.
Fair Valuation. If a market value cannot be determined for a security using the methodologies described above, or if, in the good faith opinion of the Fund’s adviser, the market value does not constitute a readily available market quotation, or if a significant event has occurred that would materially affect the value of the security, the security will be fair valued as determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Board in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Fund might

 
www.calvert.com CALVERT GREEN BOND FUND SEMIANNUAL REPORT (UNAUDITED) 19



reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The values assigned to fair value investments are based on available information and do not necessarily represent amounts that might ultimately be realized. Further, due to the inherent uncertainty of valuations of such investments, the fair values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had an active market existed, and the differences could be material.

B. Investment Transactions and Income: Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on trade date. Realized gains and losses are recorded on an identified cost basis and may include proceeds from litigation. Withholding taxes on foreign interest, if any, have been provided for in accordance with the Fund’s understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates. Interest income, which includes amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, is accrued as earned.
C. Share Class Accounting: Realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Net investment income, other than class-specific expenses, is allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the ratio of the value of each class’s paid shares to the total value of all paid shares. Expenses arising in connection with a specific class are charged directly to that class. Sub-accounting, recordkeeping and similar administrative fees payable to financial intermediaries, which are a component of transfer agency fees and expenses on the Statement of Operations, are not allocated to Class R6 shares.
D. Foreign Currency Transactions: The Fund’s accounting records are maintained in U.S. dollars. For valuation of assets and liabilities on each date of net asset value determination, foreign denominations are converted into U.S. dollars using the current exchange rate. Security transactions, income, and expenses are translated at the prevailing rate of exchange on the date of the event. Recognized gains or losses on investment transactions attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates are recorded for financial statement purposes as net realized gains and losses on investments. That portion of unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed.

E. Futures Contracts: The Fund may enter into futures contracts to buy or sell a financial instrument for a set price at a future date. Initial margin deposits of either cash or securities as required by the broker are made upon entering into the contract. While the contract is open, daily variation margin payments are made to or received from the broker reflecting the daily change in market value of the contract and are recorded for financial reporting purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the Fund. When a futures contract is closed, a realized gain or loss is recorded equal to the difference between the opening and closing value of the contract. The risks associated with entering into futures contracts may include the possible illiquidity of the secondary market which would limit the Fund’s ability to close out a futures contract prior to the settlement date, an imperfect correlation between the value of the contracts and the underlying financial instruments, or that the counterparty will fail to perform its obligations under the contracts’ terms. Futures contracts are designed by boards of trade, which are designated “contracts markets” by the Commodities Futures Trading Commission. Futures contracts trade on the contracts markets in a manner that is similar to the way a stock trades on a stock exchange, and the boards of trade, through their clearing corporations, guarantee the futures contracts against default. As a result, there is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Fund.
F. Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts for the purchase or sale of a specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date. The forward foreign currency exchange contracts are adjusted by the daily exchange rate of the underlying currency and any gains or losses are recorded as unrealized until such time as the contracts have been closed. Risks may arise upon entering these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.
G. Restricted Securities: The Fund may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. Generally, these securities may only be sold publicly upon registration under the Securities Act of 1933 or in transactions exempt from such registration. Information regarding restricted securities (excluding Rule 144A securities) is included at the end of the Schedule of Investments.
H. Distributions to Shareholders: Distributions to shareholders are recorded by the Fund on ex-dividend date. Effective February 1, 2019, dividends from net investment income are declared daily and ordinarily paid monthly. Prior to February 1, 2019, dividends from net investment income were declared and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are paid at least annually. Distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from U.S. GAAP; accordingly, periodic reclassifications are made within the Fund’s capital accounts to reflect income and gains available for distribution under income tax regulations.
I. Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
J. Indemnifications: The Corporation’s By-Laws provide for indemnification for Directors or officers of the Corporation and certain other parties, to the fullest extent permitted by Maryland law and the 1940 Act, provided certain conditions are met. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
K. Federal Income Taxes: No provision for federal income or excise tax is required since the Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute substantially all of its taxable earnings.
Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the Fund’s financial statements. A Fund’s federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
L. When-Issued Securities and Delayed Delivery Transactions: The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. At the time the transaction is negotiated, the price of the security that will be delivered is fixed. The Fund maintains cash and/or security positions for these commitments such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to make payments upon settlement. Securities purchased on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis are marked-to-market daily and begin earning interest on settlement date. Losses may arise due to changes in the market value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.
M. Interim Financial Statements: The interim financial statements relating to March 31, 2019 and for the six months then ended have not been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm, but in the opinion of the Fund’s management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial statements.

NOTE 2 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The investment advisory fee is earned by Calvert Research and Management (CRM), a subsidiary of Eaton Vance Management (EVM), as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Fund. Pursuant to the investment advisory agreement, CRM receives a fee, payable monthly, at the annual rate of 0.25% (0.30% prior to February 1, 2019) of the Fund’s average daily net assets. For the six months ended March 31, 2019, the investment advisory fee amounted to $257,420.
CRM has agreed to reimburse the Fund’s operating expenses to the extent that total annual operating expenses (relating to ordinary operating expenses only and excluding expenses such as brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses of unaffiliated funds, interest expense, taxes or litigation expenses) exceed 0.73% and 0.48% (0.85% and 0.50% prior to February 1, 2019) of the Fund’s average daily net assets for Class A and Class I, respectively, and 0.43% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for Class R6. The expense reimbursement agreement with CRM may be changed or terminated after January 31, 2020. For the six months ended March 31, 2019, CRM waived or reimbursed expenses of $136,542.
The administrative fee is earned by CRM as compensation for administrative services rendered to the Fund. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.12% of the Fund’s average daily net assets attributable to Class A, Class I and Class R6 and is payable monthly. For the six months ended March 31, 2019, CRM was paid administrative fees of $109,766.
The Fund has in effect a distribution plan for Class A shares (Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class A Plan, the Fund pays Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), an affiliate of CRM and the Fund’s principal underwriter, a distribution and service fee of 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued for the six months ended March 31, 2019 amounted to $55,250 for Class A shares.
The Fund was informed that EVD received $12,013 as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares and no contingent deferred sales charges paid by Fund shareholders for the six months ended March 31, 2019.
EVM provides sub-transfer agency and related services to the Fund pursuant to a Sub-Transfer Agency Support Services Agreement. For the six months ended March 31, 2019, sub-transfer agency fees and expenses incurred to EVM amounted to $17,513 and are included in transfer agency fees and expenses on the Statement of Operations.
Each Director of the Fund who is not an employee of CRM or its affiliates receives a fee of $3,000 for each Board meeting attended in person and $2,000 for each Board meeting attended by phone plus an annual fee of $117,000, and $1,500 for each Committee meeting attended in person and $1,000 for each Committee meeting attended by phone plus an annual Committee fee of $2,500. The Board chair receives an additional $15,000 annual retainer and Committee chairs receive an additional $6,000 annual retainer. Eligible Directors may participate in a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan). Amounts deferred under the Plan are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or other Calvert funds selected by the Directors. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected equal to the dollar amounts deferred under the Plan, resulting in an asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Obligations of the Plan are paid solely from the Fund’s assets. Directors’ fees are allocated to each of the Calvert funds served. Salaries and fees of officers and Directors of the Fund who are employees of CRM or its affiliates are paid by CRM. In addition, an advisory council was established to aid the Board and CRM in advancing the cause of responsible investing through original scholarship and thought leadership. The advisory council consists of CRM’s Chief Executive Officer and four additional members. Each member (other than CRM’s Chief Executive Officer) receives annual compensation of $75,000, which is being reimbursed by Calvert Investment Management, Inc. (CIM), the Calvert funds’ former investment adviser and Ameritas Holding Company, CIM’s parent company, through the end of 2019. For the six months ended March 31, 2019, the Fund’s allocated portion of such expense and reimbursement was $2,531, which are included in miscellaneous expense and reimbursement of expenses-other, respectively, on the Statement of Operations.
NOTE 3 — INVESTMENT ACTIVITY
During the six months ended March 31, 2019, the cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of investments, other than U.S. government and agency securities and short-term securities, and including maturities and paydowns, were $75,183,809 and $17,486,805, respectively. Purchases and sales of U.S. government and agency securities, including paydowns, were $6,910,734 and $1,887,032, respectively.
NOTE 4 — DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS AND INCOME TAX INFORMATION
At September 30, 2018, the Fund, for federal income tax purposes, had deferred capital losses of $7,271 which would reduce the Fund’s taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investment transactions, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus would reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders, which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income or excise tax. The deferred capital losses are treated as arising on the first

day of the Fund’s next taxable year and retain the same short-term or long-term character as when originally deferred. Of the deferred capital losses at September 30, 2018, $7,271 are short-term.
The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments, including open derivative contracts, of the Fund at March 31, 2019, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:
Aggregate cost

$222,611,135

Gross unrealized appreciation

$3,573,903

Gross unrealized depreciation
(566,595)

Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation)

$3,007,308

NOTE 5 — FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Fund may trade in financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of its investing activities. These financial instruments may include forward foreign currency exchange contracts and futures contracts and may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investment the Fund has in particular classes of financial instruments and do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered. A summary of obligations under these financial instruments at March 31, 2019 is included in the Schedule of Investments. At March 31, 2019, the Fund had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover commitments under these contracts.
In the normal course of pursuing its investment objective, the Fund is subject to the following risks:
Foreign Exchange Risk: During the six months ended March 31, 2019, the Fund entered into forward foreign currency exchange contracts to seek to hedge against the decline in the value of currencies in which its portfolio holdings are denominated against the U.S. dollar.
Interest Rate Risk: During the six months ended March 31, 2019, the Fund used futures contracts to hedge interest rate risk and to manage duration.
The Fund enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts that may contain provisions whereby the counterparty may terminate the contract under certain conditions, including but not limited to a decline in the Fund’s net assets below a certain level over a certain period of time, which would trigger a payment by the Fund for those derivatives in a liability position. At March 31, 2019, the fair value of derivatives with credit-related contingent features in a net liability position was $4,870. At March 31, 2019, there were no assets pledged by the Fund for such liability.
The over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives in which the Fund invests are subject to the risk that the counterparty to the contract fails to perform its obligations under the contract. To mitigate this risk, the Fund has entered into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement (“ISDA Master Agreement”) with its derivative counterparty. The ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between the Fund and the counterparty that governs certain OTC derivatives and typically contains, among other things, set-off provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event as defined under the ISDA Master Agreement. Under the ISDA Master Agreement, the Fund may, under certain circumstances, offset with the counterparty certain derivative financial instruments’ payables and/or receivables with collateral held and/or posted and create one single net payment. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of default including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty. However, bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against the right of offset in bankruptcy or insolvency. The ISDA Master Agreement allows the counterparty to OTC derivatives to terminate derivative contracts prior to maturity in the event the Fund’s net assets decline by a stated percentage or the Fund fails to meet the terms of its ISDA Master Agreement, which would cause the counterparty to accelerate payment by the Fund of any net liability owed to it.
The collateral requirements for derivatives traded under the ISDA Master Agreement are governed by a Credit Support Annex to the ISDA Master Agreement. Collateral requirements are determined at the close of business each day and are typically based on changes in market values for each transaction under the ISDA Master Agreement and netted into one amount for such agreement. Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to a counterparty is subject to a minimum transfer threshold amount before a transfer is required. Collateral pledged for the benefit of the Fund and/ or counterparty is held in segregated accounts by the Fund’s custodian and cannot be sold, re-pledged, assigned or otherwise used while pledged. The portion of such collateral representing cash, if any, is reflected as deposits for derivatives collateral and, in the case of cash pledged by a counterparty for the benefit of the Fund, a corresponding liability on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Securities pledged by the Fund as collateral, if any, are identified as such in the Schedule of Investments.

NOTE 6 — SECURITIES LENDING
To generate additional income, the Fund may lend its securities pursuant to a securities lending agency agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSB), the securities lending agent. Security loans are subject to termination by the Fund at any time and, therefore, are not considered illiquid investments. The Fund requires that the loan be continuously collateralized by either cash or securities as collateral equal at all times to at least 102% of the market value of the domestic securities loaned and 105% of the market value of the international securities loaned (if applicable). The market value of securities loaned is determined daily and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. Cash collateral is generally invested in a money market fund registered under the 1940 Act that is managed by an affiliate of SSB. Any gain or loss in the market price of the loaned securities that might occur and any interest earned or dividends declared during the term of the loan would accrue to the account of the Fund. Income earned on the investment of collateral, net of broker rebates and other expenses incurred by the securities lending agent, is split between the Fund and the securities lending agent on the basis of agreed upon contractual terms. Non-cash collateral, if any, is held by the lending agent on behalf of the Fund and cannot be sold or re-pledged by the Fund; accordingly, such collateral is not reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
The risks associated with lending portfolio securities include, but are not limited to, possible delays in receiving additional collateral or in the recovery of the loaned securities, possible loss of rights to the collateral should the borrower fail financially, as well as risk of loss in the value of the collateral or the value of the investments made with the collateral. The securities lending agent shall indemnify the Fund in the case of default of any securities borrower.
At March 31, 2019, the total value of securities on loan, including accrued interest, was $1,461,141 and the total value of collateral received was $1,495,740, comprised of cash of $968,240 and U.S. Government and/or agencies securities of $527,500.
The following table provides a breakdown of securities lending transactions accounted for as secured borrowings, the obligations by class of collateral pledged, and the remaining contractual maturity of those transactions as of March 31, 2019.

$1,495,740

The carrying amount of the liability for deposits for securities loaned at March 31, 2019 approximated its fair value. If measured at fair value, such liability would have been considered as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy (see Note 1A) at March 31, 2019.
NOTE 7 — LINE OF CREDIT
The Fund participates with other funds managed by CRM in a $62.5 million committed unsecured line of credit agreement with SSB, which is in effect through August 6, 2019. Borrowings may be made for temporary or emergency purposes only. Borrowings bear interest at the higher of the One-Month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) in effect that day or the overnight Federal Funds Rate, plus 1.00% per annum. A commitment fee of 0.20% per annum is incurred on the unused portion of the committed facility. An administrative fee of $37,500 was incurred in connection with the renewal of the facility in August 2018. These fees are allocated to all participating funds. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Fund, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Fund had no borrowings outstanding pursuant to this line of credit at March 31, 2019. The Fund did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the six months ended March 31, 2019.
NOTE 8 — AFFILIATED COMPANIES
The Fund has invested a portion of its assets designated for high social impact investments in notes (the Notes) issued by Calvert Impact Capital, Inc. (CIC), formerly the Calvert Social Investment Foundation, pursuant to an exemptive order granted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) in 1998 (the Exemptive Order). The Fund obtained the Exemptive Order

 
www.calvert.com CALVERT GREEN BOND FUND SEMIANNUAL REPORT (UNAUDITED) 25



because at that time there was a significant overlap of Fund Board members and CIC Board members as well as certain other affiliations between CIC and affiliates of the Fund’s investment adviser. CIC may be considered an affiliated person of the Fund based on the overlap between CIC’s Board of Directors and the Calvert funds’ Directors/Trustees and other potential affiliations. CIC has licensed use of the Calvert name from CRM, and currently a Fund Board member (who is also CRM’s President and Chief Executive Officer), two members of the Advisory Council to the Calvert Fund Board of Directors/Trustees, and an additional CRM officer serve on CIC’s Board. CIC is not owned or otherwise controlled by CRM or its affiliates. The Fund has filed a request for a new exemptive order from the SEC to permit additional investment in CIC notes.
At March 31, 2019, the value of the Fund’s investment in the Notes was $146,574, which represents 0.06% of the Fund’s net assets. Transactions in the Notes by the Fund for the six months ended March 31, 2019 were as follows:

BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ CONTRACT APPROVAL
Overview of the Contract Review Process

The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, provides, in substance, that each investment advisory agreement between a fund and its investment adviser will continue in effect from year to year only if its continuation is approved at least annually by the fund’s board of directors, including by a vote of a majority of the directors who are not “interested persons” of the fund (“Independent Directors”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of considering such approval.
At a meeting of the Boards of Trustees/Directors (each a “Board”) of the registered investment companies advised by Calvert Research and Management (“CRM” or the “Adviser”) (the “Calvert Funds”) held on March 6, 2019, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors, voted to approve continuation of existing investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreements for the Calvert Funds for an additional one-year period.
In evaluating the investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreements for the Calvert Funds, the Board considered a variety of information relating to the Calvert Funds and various service providers, including the Adviser. The Independent Directors reviewed a report prepared by the Adviser regarding various services provided to the Calvert Funds by the Adviser and its affiliates. Such report included, among other data, information regarding the Adviser’s personnel and the Adviser’s revenue and cost of providing services to the Calvert Funds, and a separate report prepared by an independent data provider, which compared each fund’s investment performance, fees and expenses to those of comparable funds as identified by such independent data provider (“comparable funds”).
The Independent Directors were separately represented by independent legal counsel with respect to their consideration of the continuation of the investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreements for the Calvert Funds. Prior to voting, the Independent Directors reviewed the proposed continuation of the Calvert Funds’ investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreements with management and also met in private sessions with their counsel at which time no representatives of management were present.

The information that the Board considered included, among other things, the following (for funds that invest through one or more underlying fund(s), references to “each fund” in this section may include information that was considered at the underlying fund-level):

Information about Fees, Performance and Expenses
A report from an independent data provider comparing the advisory and related fees paid by each fund with fees paid by comparable funds;
A report from an independent data provider comparing each fund’s total expense ratio and its components to comparable funds;
A report from an independent data provider comparing the investment performance of each fund to the investment performance of comparable funds over various time periods;
Data regarding investment performance in comparison to benchmark indices;
For each fund, comparative information concerning the fees charged and the services provided by the Adviser in managing other accounts (including mutual funds, other collective investment funds and institutional accounts) using investment strategies and techniques similar to those used in managing such fund;
Profitability analyses for the Adviser with respect to each fund;

Information about Portfolio Management and Trading
Descriptions of the investment management services provided to each fund, including investment strategies and processes it employs;
Information about the Adviser’s policies and practices with respect to trading, including the Adviser’s processes for monitoring best execution of portfolio transactions;
Information about the allocation of brokerage transactions and the benefits received by the Adviser as a result of brokerage allocation, including information concerning the acquisition of research through client commission arrangements and policies with respect to “soft dollars”;

Information about the Adviser
Reports detailing the financial results and condition of CRM;
Descriptions of the qualifications, education and experience of the individual investment professionals whose responsibilities include portfolio management and investment research for the funds, and information relating to their compensation and responsibilities with respect to managing other mutual funds and investment accounts;
Policies and procedures relating to proxy voting and the handling of corporate actions and class actions;
A description of CRM’s procedures for overseeing sub-advisers, including with respect to regulatory and compliance issues, investment management and other matters;

Other Relevant Information
Information concerning the nature, cost and character of the administrative and other non-investment advisory services provided by CRM and its affiliates; and
The terms of each investment advisory agreement.

Over the course of the year, the Board and its committees held regular quarterly meetings. During these meetings, the Directors participated in investment and performance reviews with the portfolio managers and other investment professionals of the Adviser relating to each fund, and considered various investment and trading strategies used in pursuing each fund’s investment objective(s), such as the use of derivative instruments, as well as risk management techniques. The Board and its committees also evaluated issues pertaining to industry and regulatory developments, compliance procedures, corporate governance and other issues with respect to the funds, and received and participated in reports and presentations provided by CRM and its affiliates with respect to such matters. In addition to the formal meetings of the Board and its committees, the Independent Directors held regular teleconferences in between meetings to discuss, among other topics, matters relating to the continuation of the Calvert Funds’ investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreements.

For funds that invest through one or more underlying funds, the Board considered similar information about the underlying fund(s) when considering the approval of investment advisory agreements. In addition, in cases where the Adviser has engaged a sub-adviser, the Board considered similar information about the sub-adviser when considering the approval of any investment sub-advisory agreement.

The Independent Directors were assisted throughout the contract review process by their independent legal counsel. The Independent Directors relied upon the advice of such counsel and their own business judgment in determining the material factors to be considered in evaluating each investment advisory and investment sub-advisory agreement and the weight to be given to each such factor. The Board, including the Independent Directors, did not identify any single factor as controlling, and each Director may have attributed different weight to various factors.

Results of the Contract Review Process

Based on its consideration of the foregoing, and such other information as it deemed relevant, including the factors and conclusions described below, the Board, including the Independent Directors, concluded that the continuation of the investment advisory agreement of Calvert Green Bond Fund (the “Fund”), including the fee payable under the agreement, is in the best interests of the Fund’s shareholders. Accordingly, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors, voted to approve the continuation of the investment advisory agreement of the Fund.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser under the investment advisory agreement, the Board reviewed information provided by the Adviser relating to its operations and personnel, including, among other information, biographical information on the Adviser’s investment personnel and descriptions of its organizational and management structure. The Board also took into account similar information provided periodically throughout the previous year by the Adviser as well as the Board’s familiarity with management through Board meetings, discussions and other reports. The Board considered the Adviser’s management style and its performance in employing its investment strategies as well as its current level of staffing and overall resources. The Board also noted that it reviewed on a quarterly basis information regarding the Adviser’s compliance with applicable policies and procedures, including those related to personal investing. The Board took into account, among other items, periodic reports received from the Adviser over the past year concerning the Adviser’s ongoing review and enhancement of certain processes, policies and procedures of the Calvert Funds and the Adviser. The Board concluded that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund by the Adviser under the investment advisory agreement.

Fund Performance

In considering the Fund’s performance, the Board noted that it reviewed on a quarterly basis detailed information about the Fund’s performance results, portfolio composition and investment strategies. The Board compared the Fund’s investment performance to that of the Fund’s peer universe and its benchmark index. The Board’s review included comparative performance data for the one- and three-year periods ended September 30, 2018. This performance data indicated that the Fund had outperformed the median of the Fund’s peer universe for the one- and three-year periods ended September 30, 2018 and underperformed its benchmark index for the one- and three-year periods ended September 30, 2018. Based upon its review, the Board concluded that the Fund’s performance was satisfactory relative to the performance of its peer universe and its benchmark index.

Management Fees and Expenses

In considering the Fund’s fees and expenses, the Board compared the Fund’s fees and total expense ratio with those of comparable funds in its expense group. Among other findings, the data indicated that the Fund’s advisory and administrative fees (after taking into account waivers and/or reimbursements) (referred to collectively as “management fees”) were below the median of the Fund’s expense group and the Fund’s total expenses (net of waivers and/or reimbursements) were below the median of the Fund’s expense group. The Board took into account the Adviser’s current undertaking to maintain expense limitations for the Fund and that the Adviser was waiving and/or reimbursing a portion of the Fund’s expenses. Based upon its review, the Board concluded that the management fees were reasonable in view of the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Adviser.

Profitability and Other “Fall-Out” Benefits

The Board reviewed the Adviser’s profitability in regard to the Fund and the Calvert Funds in the aggregate. In reviewing the overall profitability of the Fund to the Adviser, the Board also considered the fact that the Adviser and its affiliates provided sub-transfer agency support, administrative and distribution services to the Fund for which they received compensation. The information considered by the Board included the profitability of the Fund to the Adviser and its affiliates without regard to any marketing support or other payments by the Adviser and its affiliates to third parties in respect of distribution services. The Board also considered that the Adviser and its affiliates derived benefits to their reputation and other indirect benefits from their relationships with the Fund. Based upon its review, the Board concluded that the Adviser’s and its affiliates’ level of profitability from their relationships with the Fund was reasonable.

Economies of Scale
The Board considered the effect of the Fund’s current size and its potential growth on its performance and fees. The Board concluded that adding breakpoints to the advisory fee at specified asset levels would not be appropriate at this time. The Board noted that if the Fund’s assets increased over time, the Fund might realize other economies of scale if assets increased proportionally more than certain other expenses.

Only such information received from you, through application forms or otherwise, and information about your Calvert fund transactions will be collected. This may include information such as name, address, social security number, tax status, account balances and transactions.
None of such information about you (or former customers) will be disclosed to anyone, except as permitted by law (which includes disclosure to employees necessary to service your account). In the normal course of servicing a customer’s account, Calvert Research and Management may share information with unaffiliated third parties that perform various required services such as transfer agents, custodians and broker-dealers.
Policies and procedures (including physical, electronic and procedural safeguards) are in place that are designed to protect the confidentiality of such information.
The Funds reserve the right to change this Privacy Policy at any time upon proper notification to you. Customers may want to review the Funds’ Privacy Policy periodically for changes by accessing the link on our homepage: www.calvert.com.
Our pledge of privacy applies to the following entities: the Calvert Family of Funds, Calvert Research and Management and their affiliated service providers, Eaton Vance Management and Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. In addition, our Privacy Policy applies only to those Calvert customers who are individuals and who have a direct relationship with us. If a customer’s account (i.e., fund shares) is held in the name of a third-party financial advisor/broker-dealer, it is likely that only such advisor’s privacy policies apply to the customer. This notice supersedes all previously issued privacy disclosures. For more information about Calvert’s Privacy Policy, please call 1-800-368-2745.
Delivery of Shareholder Documents. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) permits funds to deliver only one copy of shareholder documents, including prospectuses, proxy statements and shareholder reports, to fund investors with multiple accounts at the same residential or post office box address. This practice is often called “householding” and it helps eliminate duplicate mailings to shareholders. Calvert funds, or your financial advisor, may household the mailing of your documents indefinitely unless you instruct Calvert funds, or your financial advisor, otherwise. If you would prefer that your Calvert fund documents not be householded, please contact Calvert funds at 1-800-368-2745, or contact your financial advisor. Your instructions that householding not apply to delivery of your Calvert fund documents will typically be effective within 30 days of receipt by Calvert funds or your financial advisor. Separate statements will be generated for each separate account and will be householded as described above.
Portfolio Holdings. Each Calvert fund files a schedule of portfolio holdings on Part F to Form N-PORT with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year. The Form N-PORT will be available on the Calvert funds’ website at www.calvert.com, by calling Calvert funds at 1-800-368-2745 or in the EDGAR database on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
Proxy Voting. The Proxy Voting Guidelines that each Calvert fund uses to determine how to vote proxies relating to portfolio securities is provided as an Appendix to the fund’s Statement of Additional Information. The Statement of Additional Information can be obtained free of charge by calling the Calvert funds at 1-800-368-2745, by visiting the Calvert funds’ website at www.calvert.com or visiting the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Information regarding how a Calvert fund voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30 is available by calling Calvert funds, by visiting the Calvert funds’ website at www.calvert.com or by visiting the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
