Q: What were the overall market conditions during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009?

A: Yields in the municipal bond market experienced two different directional trends during the 12-month period that ended September 30, 2009. Following Lehman Brothers’ bankruptcy filing in September 2008, yields on high-quality municipal bonds rose significantly in the beginning of the fourth quarter of 2008 before falling steadily afterward and throughout most of the first three quarters of 2009. After Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy, investors sought assets that were free of credit risk, such as U.S. government debt, and Treasury yields dropped in the fourth quarter of 2008. Amid this flight to quality, yields on ‘AAA’ general obligation municipal bonds at all points on the yield curve surpassed yields on Treasuries with similar maturities.

The monoline bond insurers continued to face ratings downgrades during the year due to their exposure to residential real estate.

In addition to reducing the fed funds target rate to a range of 0–0.25%, the Federal Reserve implemented a range of initiatives designed to stabilize conditions in the credit markets. Also, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (the stimulus bill) created by the Obama administration was also a factor in the municipal bond market. The package allows states and municipalities to issue a new form of debt securities called Build America Bonds (BABs), which are taxable municipal bonds providing a federal government subsidy for a portion of the interest cost to either the investor buying the bonds or the entity issuing the securities.

Municipal bond issuance for 2009 was $286.9 billion as of September 30, or about 10% lower than the same period a year earlier. As the BAB program gained acceptance among issuers, about 30% of the market volume in the latter months of the fiscal year consisted of the taxable bonds. This use of taxable bonds reduced the supply of tax-exempt securities and was cited as a factor behind the strong performance of the tax-exempt municipal bond market in which the Funds invest.

With the yields on many money market funds close to 0%, Treasury yields near multiyear lows, and signs that the economy was stabilizing, investors became more willing to accept some credit risk and increased their demand for a range of bonds including municipal securities.

The price recovery phase in the municipal bond market lasted throughout much of the first three quarters of 2009. As this occurred, the municipal yield curve remained steep, and yields on most ‘AAA’ municipal bonds eventually returned to levels that were lower than those on similarly dated Treasury bonds, while long- term benchmark rates approached those of comparable Treasuries. Securities with lower credit ratings and longer maturities outperformed those with the highest credit ratings and short maturities.

Despite the price recovery in the overall municipal bond market, yields in the non-investment-grade segment remained above pre-Lehman levels.

Q: How did each Fund perform during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009?

A: (Please see Table 1 for the relative performance of each Fund.)

Q. What were the most significant factors affecting performance?

A: The most significant factors affecting each Fund’s performance were as follows:

National Tax Free Fund

The National Tax Free Fund outperformed its benchmark, the Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index, during the 12-month period ended September 30, 2009.

During the year, bonds with longer maturities and higher credit ratings outperformed those with shorter maturities and lower credit ratings. The municipal yield curve remained steep, and the Fund’s exposure to bonds with maturities of 20 years and longer contributed positively to performance. The Fund’s holdings of charter school and senior living bonds underperformed the broader portfolio.

California Tax Free Fund

The Fund underperformed its benchmark during the year. The Fund’s holdings of lease appropriated bonds underperformed relative to other sectors. Even so, they provided positive returns.

The California Tax Free Fund benefited from its yield curve positioning, particularly from its weighting in bonds with maturities of 16 years and longer. The Fund also capitalized on its exposure to lower-rated, investment-grade credits, as its holdings of ‘A’ rated securities were beneficial to performance.

General obligation (GO) debt issued by the State of California was rated ‘Baa1’ by Moody’s and ‘A’ by Standard & Poor’s as of September 30, 2009. These ratings are based on weak economic performance trends, recent budget amendments to solve the 2009 budget gap, inflexibility in the state’s revenue system and governmental structures, as well as a diverse, wealthy economy and a well-funded pension obligation.

Fiscal year 2008 was one of the most difficult economic periods in California’s history. While measures were taken to cut state expenses, minimize budget gaps, and improve financial liquidity, there are still concerns that the current budget package is based on nonrecurring actions, material out-year obligations, and perhaps optimistic beliefs about revenue performance and expenditure savings.

At 12.2% as of September 2009, California’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate is the fourth highest in the nation. As of September 2009, the national rate was 9.8%.

The outlook for California’s ratings was recently designated as stable (according to Moody’s) and negative (according to S&P). It is possible the outlooks may change given the state’s recent history in facing steep budget deficits. According to Moody’s 2009 State Debt Medians Report, California has the largest total net tax-supported debt of the 50 states. Net tax-supported debt per capita for California is $1,805 in 2009, or 4.4% of 2007 personal income. The average funded ratio for state public pension plans is 81% as of February 2009.

Connecticut Tax Free Fund

The Fund underperformed its benchmark during the fiscal year. The Fund’s holdings in pre-refunded bonds7 were a drag on performance, as pre-refunded bonds, which typically have short maturities and are of the highest credit quality,

 

4


 

 

 

underperformed most of the Fund’s other holdings. Even so, they provided positive returns.

The Connecticut Tax Free Fund benefited from its yield curve positioning, in particular its weighting in bonds 13 years and longer. Sector allocation was also an important contributor. Electric utilities, higher education, and industrial development bonds boosted Fund performance.

GO debt issued by the State of Connecticut was rated ‘Aa3’ by Moody’s and ‘AA’ by Standard & Poor’s as of September 30, 2009. These ratings are based on good reserve levels, high levels of income and wealth, as well as a substantial and diverse economic base. In addition, Connecticut is, according to recent data, the most affluent of the 50 states, with per capita income ahead of the national average by 38%.

The state ended fiscal year 2008 with a budget surplus of about $99 million. Connecticut’s budget reserve fund at the end of fiscal year 2008 matched its 2007 level at $1.38 billion. Personal income and oil company taxes boosted net taxes after refunds to $70 million over forecasted amounts. Revenues from sales, corporate, real estate, and other tax resources were less than expected.

Connecticut’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate increased to 8.4% in September 2009. The state reported the greatest job losses in the leisure, hospitality, and government sectors. The educational and health services areas were the only ones to show job increases. The recent loss of financial sector jobs hurt Connecticut’s high-end housing market.

Connecticut’s net tax-supported debt per capita ranks first in the nation, according to Moody’s 2009 State Debt Medians Report. While the national median net tax-supported debt is $865 per capita, the state’s debt equals $4,490 per capita. Yet, when viewed within the context of the state’s high income levels, its debt ratios are relatively manageable.

Hawaii Tax Free Fund

The Fund underperformed its benchmark during the year. The performance of the Fund’s holdings in bonds shorter than six years lagged that of the broader portfolio. Even so, they had positive returns. As typical with the general market, longer maturity bonds outperformed shorter maturity bonds.

Strategic allocations to maturities longer than nine years were beneficial to the Fund’s performance. Sector allocation was also an important contributor. Insured, general obligation, and special tax district bonds boosted Fund performance.

GO debt issued by the State of Hawaii was rated ‘Aa2’ by Moody’s and ‘AA’ by Standard & Poor’s as of September 30, 2009. These strong ratings are based on the state’s history of fiscal conservatism, aggressive budget solutions, ongoing military housing construction, proactive budget monitoring practices, and a high debt burden.

Throughout fiscal year 2009, revenue performance declined. Late in its fiscal year, Hawaii’s council on revenues lowered its forecast for tax revenue growth to a contraction of 9% for 2009, which would cause a $730 million budget shortfall. Hawaii’s economy was weakened by a variety of factors including a decline in tourism, reduced consumer spending, job losses, stock market declines, and the swine flu epidemic. To help replace lost revenues, Governor Linda Lingle announced a mandatory three-day-per-month furlough for all executive branch staff for two years, and the plan’s projected savings is $688 million.

As of September 30, 2009, the state’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate increased to 7.2% from 4.4% a year earlier. The most recent rates are the worst in 30 years. After four years of operating surpluses, tax revenues failed to meet expenditures for fiscal year 2008. The state reported a decline in its unreserved, undesignated general fund balance from a peak of $915 million for fiscal year 2006 to $464 million for fiscal year 2008.

According to Moody’s 2009 State Debt Medians Report, Hawaii ranks third highest in the nation with net tax-supported debt per capita of $3,675. The national median net tax-supported debt is $865 per capita. As a percentage of 2007 personal income, Hawaii’s debt level in 2009 is the nation’s highest at 9.4%. However, this is a decrease from 9.9% reported in 2008.

While Hawaii’s retirement system funded ratio was below average, 69% at the end of fiscal year 2008, this reflects an improvement from 65% in 2006. In addition, the state has been making its annually required contributions.

Missouri Tax Free Fund

The Fund underperformed its benchmark during the fiscal year. The performance of the Fund’s holdings of bonds shorter than 13 years trailed that of longer maturity bonds. Even so, they had positive returns. As was typical with the general market, longer maturity bonds outperformed shorter maturity bonds.

Strategic allocations to maturities longer than 13 years were beneficial to the Fund’s performance. Sector allocation was also an important contributor to the Fund’s performance. In particular, insured, healthcare, and lease appropriation bonds were significant contributors.

GO debt issued by the State of Missouri was rated ‘Aaa’ by Moody’s and ‘AAA’ by Standard & Poor’s as of September 30, 2009. These ratings are based on Missouri’s history of large available balances, solid financial management, and moderate debt burden.

Fiscal 2009 net general revenue collections fell 6.9% to $7.5 billion from $8.0 billion collected in fiscal 2008. This followed a 3.7% increase in fiscal 2008 net general revenues over fiscal 2007. Missouri’s actual expenditures for fiscal 2008 were under budget, enabling the

 

6


 

 

 

state to increase its already strong reserves by nearly $166 million.

As of September 2009, seasonally adjusted unemployment rate for Missouri was 9.5%, versus a national average of 9.8%. In September 2008, the state’s unemployment rate stood at 6.3%. Missouri’s net tax-supported per capita debt level for 2009 is low at $670, or 2.0% of 2007 personal income, versus a national median of $865, or 2.5%.

New Jersey Tax Free Fund

The Fund underperformed its benchmark during the year. During the fourth quarter of 2008, difficulties in the financial markets led to a steepening yield curve and a significant widening of credit spreads. This scenario hurt performance due to the Fund’s holdings of longer-dated bonds. Exposure to lower quality credit, selected due to its attractive long-term total return characteristics, was also a detracting factor for this period.

However, in 2009, this same structure helped the Fund’s performance as a strong rally ensued. Credit spreads compressed significantly causing the Fund’s lower quality exposure to boost performance. In addition, the Fund’s holdings of longer-dated bonds contributed to performance.

The Fund’s exposure to the healthcare sector, as well as lease appropriated debt, also contributed to performance. While returns in all sectors were positive, the performance of the Fund’s holdings of senior living bonds trailed that of the broader portfolio.

GO debt issued by the State of New Jersey was rated ‘Aa3’ by Moody’s and ‘AA’ by Standard & Poor’s as of September 30, 2009. These ratings are based on New Jersey’s varied economy, high wealth and income levels, and ongoing improvement in balancing resources to needs. They also reflect decreased revenues, a high debt burden, and a large unfunded pension liability.

New Jersey ended fiscal year 2009 with a budget gap of $6.1 billion, or 18.8% of the state’s general fund. Revenue from personal income tax, sales tax, and corporate business tax all declined as social service expenses increased. The state applied numerous expense reductions to mitigate the drop in revenues. Many of the measures, including Federal stimulus funds, were non-recurring.

The state’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate increased from 5.8% in September 2008 to 9.8% in September 2009, equaling the national rate. The financial, manufacturing, and construction sectors have been hard hit. Additional job loss could result due to New Jersey’s exposure to financial services and pharmaceutical company mergers.

In 2008, New Jersey’s per capita personal income ranked second among the 50 states at $50,919. New Jersey’s net tax-supported debt burden per capita is high at $3,621, compared to the national median of $865, according to Moody’s 2009 State Debt Medians Report. As a percentage of 2007 personal income, New Jersey’s 2009

 

7


 

 

 

debt ranks fourth among the states at 7.3%. The funded ratio for New Jersey state pensions is low, at 69.6% as of June 2008. This is a decline from 100.8% in 2002.

New York Tax Free Fund

The Fund outperformed its benchmark during the year. During the fourth quarter of 2008, difficulties in the financial markets led to a steepening yield curve and a significant widening of credit spreads. This scenario hurt performance due to the Fund’s weighting in longer-dated bonds. Exposure to lower quality credit, selected due to its attractive long-term total return characteristics, was also a detracting factor for this period.

In 2009, this same structure helped the Fund’s performance as a strong rally ensued. Credit spreads compressed significantly causing the Fund’s lower quality exposure to bolster performance. However, it was the ‘AA’ and ‘A’ rated buckets that had the highest returns. In addition, the Fund’s holdings of longer-dated bonds contributed positively to performance.

The Fund’s exposure to higher education bonds, as well as lease appropriated debt also contributed to performance. While returns in all sectors were positive, the performance of insured bonds trailed that of the majority of the portfolio.

GO debt issued by the State of New York was rated ‘Aa3’ by Moody’s and ‘AA’ by Standard & Poor’s as of September 30, 2009. These ratings are based on the state’s diversified, mature, affluent economy, as well as its comprehensive financial planning process, track record of closing annual budget gaps, and accumulated budget reserves. Even though the national housing crisis did not impact New York as much as other states, New York’s dependence on the financial industry led the state into recession.

New York reported unaudited net assets of $33.9 billion for fiscal year 2009 (ended March 31, 2009), resulting from $125.9 billion in total assets offset by $92 billion in total liabilities. The general fund reported a deficit of $6.9 billion for 2009, reducing the accumulated fund balance to a $2.9 billion deficit.

As of September 2009, New York’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate stood at 8.9%, up 3.1% from the previous year. New York’s per capita personal income ranked sixth highest among the 50 states at $48,076 in 2008.

While unfunded retiree health care liabilities are about $49.9 billion, New York’s pension system is well funded relative to other states. New York’s net tax-supported debt burden per capita was high at $2,921, compared to the national median of $865, ranking fifth in the nation, according to Moody’s 2009 State Debt Medians Report.

Intermediate Tax Free Fund

The Intermediate Tax Free Fund outperformed its benchmark, the Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index: 7 Year (6-8), during the 12-month period ended September 30, 2009. During the year, bonds with longer maturities and higher credit ratings outperformed those with shorter maturities and lower credit ratings. The Fund’s holdings of bonds with maturities of 10 years or longer contributed positively to its performance. The performance of the Fund’s insured bonds trailed that of the broader portfolio.

Short Duration Tax Free Fund*

*(The Fund commenced operations on December 12, 2008, and investment performance began on December 31, 2008.)

The Short Duration Tax Free Fund outperformed its benchmark, the Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index: 1 Year (1-2), during the period from December 31, 2008, to September 30, 2009. The Fund’s position in variable-rate demand notes (VRDNs) contributed positively to performance for significant portions of the year. Due to the steep municipal yield curve, the Fund benefitted from a barbell position in the VRDNs at the short end of the curve, with bonds in the three- to five-year range at the other end. Securities with ‘A’ and ‘BBB’ credit ratings contributed positively to performance during the period.

Georgia Tax Free Trust

The Fund outperformed its benchmark during the year. The Georgia Tax Free Trust benefited from its yield curve positioning, in particular its weighting in bonds 10 years and longer.

Sector allocation was also an important contributor. General obligation, water/sewer, and industrial development bonds boosted Fund performance. The Fund’s holdings in pre-refunded and senior living bonds underperformed other sectors. Even so, they provided positive returns.

GO debt issued by the State of Georgia was rated ‘Aaa’ by Moody’s and ‘AAA’ by Standard & Poor’s as of September 30, 2009. These strong ratings are based on a history of conservative fiscal management, solid long-term fundamentals, moderate debt burden, well funded pensions, and modest budget reserves.

Georgia’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate jumped from 6.6% in September 2008 to 10.1% in September 2009. Construction, manufacturing, and financial services were the sectors with the most significant job losses, while education and healthcare reported gains.

After several years of tax revenue growth, Georgia’s 2007 revenue shortfall reserve stood at $1.5 billion, or 8.2% of net revenues. In fiscal 2008, the state’s tax revenues declined, dropping to $17.7 billion, or 3.9% below budget. As a result, $333 million from the reserve was needed to complete the year. For fiscal 2009, tax revenues fell 10.5% to $15.6 billion.

Georgia is using its American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) stimulus package funds to help mitigate budget shortfalls.

High Yield Municipal Bond Fund

The High Yield Municipal Bond Fund underperformed its benchmark, the Barclays Capital High Yield Municipal Bond Index, during the 12-month period ended September 30, 2009. Holdings of special tax district bonds were detractors during the period.

Exposure to securities with maturities of 21 years and longer contributed positively to performance, as did exposure to bonds with credit ratings of ‘BBB.’ Holdings of bonds from the airline and healthcare sectors helped performance.

Pennsylvania Tax Free Trust

The Fund underperformed its benchmark during the year. The performance of the Fund’s holdings in bonds shorter than five years trailed that of the broader portfolio. Even so, they had positive returns for the year.

As typical with the general market, longer maturity bonds outperformed shorter maturity bonds. Strategic allocations to maturities longer than 13 years were beneficial to the Fund’s performance. Sector allocation was also an important contributor. Healthcare, higher education, and insured bonds boosted Fund performance.

GO debt issued by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania was rated ‘Aa2’ by Moody’s and ‘AA’ by Standard & Poor’s as of September 30, 2009. These ratings are based on the Commonwealth’s varied economic base, good wealth levels, and favorable debt profile. In August, Moody’s revised Pennsylvania’s rating outlook from stable to negative, due to declining available fund balances, the challenge of rebuilding fund balances, and delays in reversing budget gaps caused by reduced revenues.

As of September 2009, Pennsylvania’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate was 8.8%, lower than the national unemployment rate of 9.8%. Revenues declined significantly in fiscal 2009 (ended June 30, 2009), causing a large deficit. The general fund revenues finished the year at $3.25 billion, about 10% less than in 2008. Pennsylvania ended fiscal 2009 with an unappropriated balance of negative $2.74 billion.

Pennsylvania’s State Employees’ Retirement Fund and the Public School Employees’ Retirement Fund are well funded, with funded ratios of 89.0% and 84.1%, respectively, as of December 31, 2008. The Commonwealth’s debt position is strong, with a burden per capita of $950, compared with the national median of $865, according to Moody’s 2009 State Debt Medians Report.

4  The Barclays Capital High Yield Municipal Bond Index is an unmanaged index that includes municipal bonds having a maximum quality rating of Ba1, or non-rated, original issue size of $20 million or larger and maturities of at least one year.

5  The Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index: 1 Year (1-2) is an unmanaged index composed of national municipal bond issues with a maturity range of 1-2 years.

6  The Short Duration Tax Free Fund commenced operations on December 12, 2008. Investment performance began on December 31, 2008, and the total returns for the Fund, its Lipper Average, and the Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index: 1 Year (1-2) are each for the period December 31, 2008 to September 30, 2009.

7  Pre-refunded bonds are older, tax-free bonds that typically pay coupons higher than current market rates and that have been refinanced or “prepaid” by the proceeds of a second bond issue. The proceeds of this second issuance are used to “call” or pay off the original issue at its first call date. Until that time, the monies are held in escrow and are usually invested in U.S. Treasuries. As a result, pre-refunded bonds are generally deemed to have virtually no default risk. Typically, when a bond becomes pre-refunded it appreciates in value because of its higher credit quality and improved marketability.

Expense Example

As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments (these charges vary among the share classes); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees (these charges vary among the share classes; also, certain Funds do not yet have effective a Rule 12b-1 plan under which distribution and service fees are paid); and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in each Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (April 1, 2009 through September 30, 2009).

Actual Expenses

For each class of each Fund, the first line of the applicable table on the following pages provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 line under the heading titled “Expenses Paid During the Period 4/1/09 – 9/30/09” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

For each class of each Fund, the second line of the applicable table on the following pages provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in each 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.

1.    ORGANIZATION

Lord Abbett Municipal Income Fund, Inc. (the “Company”) and Lord Abbett Municipal Income Trust (the “Trust”) are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as open-end management investment companies. The Company was organized as a Maryland corporation on December 27, 1983. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on September 11, 1991 and was reorganized as a Delaware statutory trust on July 22, 2002.

The Company consists of the following seven portfolios (separately, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) and their respective classes:

 

Funds    Classes

Lord Abbett National Tax-Free Income Fund (“National”)

   A, B, C, F, I and P

Lord Abbett California Tax-Free Income Fund (“California”)

   A, C, F and P

Lord Abbett Connecticut Tax-Free Income Fund (“Connecticut”)

   A, F and P

Lord Abbett Hawaii Tax-Free Income Fund (“Hawaii”)

   A, F and P

Lord Abbett Missouri Tax-Free Income Fund (“Missouri”)

   A, F and P

Lord Abbett New Jersey Tax-Free Income Fund (“New Jersey”)

   A, F and P

Lord Abbett New York Tax-Free Income Fund (“New York”)

   A, C, F and P

The Trust consists of the following five portfolios (separately, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) and their respective classes:

 

Funds    Classes

Lord Abbett Intermediate Tax-Free Fund (“Intermediate”)

   A, B, C, F and P

Lord Abbett Short Duration Tax Free Fund (“Short Duration”)*

   A, B, C, F and I

Georgia Series (“Georgia”)

   A, F and P

Lord Abbett High Yield Municipal Bond Fund (“High Yield”)

   A, B, C, F, I and P

Pennsylvania Series (“Pennsylvania”)

   A, F and P
* Commencement of investment operations was December 12, 2008, SEC effective date was December 10, 2008 and date shares first became available to the public was January 2, 2009.

Each Fund is non-diversified as defined in the Act, except for National, Intermediate and Short Duration. As of the date of this report, Short Duration has not issued Class B shares and is the only fund to have issued Class I shares, National and High Yield have been authorized to issue but have not issued Class I shares and only Intermediate and High Yield have issued Class P shares.

The investment objective of each Fund (except for High Yield) is to seek the maximum amount of interest income exempt from federal income tax as is consistent with reasonable risk. Each Fund (except for National, Intermediate, Short Duration and High Yield) also seeks as high a level of interest income exempt from the personal income tax of its corresponding state as is consistent with reasonable risk. The investment objective of High Yield is to seek a high level of income exempt from federal income tax. New York also seeks as high a level of interest income exempt from New York City personal income tax as is consistent with reasonable risk.

Each class has different expenses and dividends. A front-end sales charge is normally added to the net asset value (“NAV”) for Class A shares. There is no front-end sales charge in the case of Class B, C, F, I and P shares, although there may be a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) for certain cases as follows: Class A shares purchased without a sales charge and redeemed before the first day of the month in which the one-year anniversary of the purchase falls (subject to certain exceptions); Class B shares redeemed before the sixth anniversary of purchase; and Class C shares redeemed before the first anniversary of purchase. Class B shares will automatically convert to

 

220


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

Class A shares on the 25th day of the month (or, if the 25th is not a business day, the next business day thereafter) following the eighth anniversary of the day on which the purchase order was accepted. The Funds’ Class P shares are closed to substantially all new retirement and benefit plans and fee-based programs, with certain exceptions as set forth in each Fund’s prospectus.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make certain 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.

2.    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

(a)   Investment Valuation–Securities are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices on the basis of prices supplied by independent pricing services, which reflect broker/dealer supplied valuations and the independent pricing services’ own electronic data processing techniques. Exchange traded options and futures contracts are valued at the last sale price in the market where they are principally traded. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined by management and approved in good faith by the Board of Directors/Trustees. Investments in open-end money market mutual funds are valued at their NAV as of the close of each business day. Short-term securities with 60 days or less remaining to maturity are valued using the amortized cost method, which approximates current market value.

 

(b)   Security Transactions–Security transactions are recorded as of the date that the securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses on sales of portfolio securities are calculated using the identified-cost method. Realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets at the beginning of the day.

 

(c)   Investment Income–Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis as earned. Discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized using the effective interest method. Investment income is allocated to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets at the beginning of the day.

 

(d)   Income Taxes–It is the policy of each Fund to meet the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders. Therefore, no income tax provision is required.

Each Fund files U.S. federal and various state and local tax returns. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The statute of limitations on the Funds’ U.S. federal tax returns remains open for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2006 through September 30, 2009. The statutes of limitations on the Company’s and Trust’s state and local tax returns may remain open for an additional year depending upon the jurisdiction.

 

(e)  

Expenses–Expenses incurred by the Company and Trust that do not specifically relate to an individual fund are generally allocated to the Funds within the Company and Trust on a pro rata basis by relative net assets. Expenses, excluding class-specific expenses, are allocated to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets at the beginning of the

 

221


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

 

day. Class A, B, C, F and P shares bear their class-specific share of all expenses and fees relating to the Funds’ 12b-1 Distribution Plan.

 

(f)   Futures Contracts–Each Fund may purchase and sell futures contracts for bona fide hedging purposes including hedging against changes in interest rates and securities prices. At the time of entering into a futures transaction, an investor is required to deposit and maintain a specified amount of cash or eligible securities called “initial margin”. Subsequent payments made or received by a Fund called “variation margin” are made on a daily basis as the market price of the futures contract fluctuates. Each Fund will record an unrealized gain (loss) based on the amount of variation margin. When a contract is closed, a realized gain (loss) is recorded equal to the difference between the opening and closing value of the contract. Generally, open futures contracts are marked to market for federal income tax purposes at fiscal year-end. As of September 30, 2009, each Fund, except Short Duration, had open futures contracts.

 

(g)   When-Issued Municipal Bonds–Each Fund may purchase new issues of municipal bonds, which are generally offered on a when-issued basis, with delivery and payment normally taking place approximately one month after the purchase date.

 

(h)   Municipal Bonds Held in Trust–Each Fund may invest in leveraged residual certificates (“TOB Residuals”) issued by tender option bond trusts (“TOBs”). A TOB is established by a third party sponsor forming a special purpose entity into which a Fund, or an agent on behalf of the Fund, transfers municipal securities. A TOB typically issues two classes of beneficial interests: short-term floating rate certificates (trust certificates), which are sold to third party investors, and residual certificates, which are generally issued to a Fund which made the transfer or to affiliates of the Fund. Each Fund’s transfer of the municipal securities to a TOB is accounted for as a secured borrowing, therefore the municipal securities deposited into a TOB are presented as investments in a Fund’s Schedule of Investments and the proceeds from the transactions are reported as a liability for trust certificates on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Similarly, proceeds from residual certificates issued to affiliates, if any, from the transaction are included in the liability for trust certificates. Interest income from the underlying security is recorded by a Fund on an accrual basis. Interest expense incurred on the secured borrowing and other expenses related to remarketing, administration and trustee services to a TOB are reported as expenses of a Fund. The floating rate certificates have interest rates that generally reset weekly and their holders have the option to tender certificates to the TOB for redemption at par at each reset date. The residual interests held by a Fund include the right of the Fund (1) to cause the holders of a proportional share of floating rate certificates to tender their certificates at par and (2) to transfer a corresponding share of the municipal securities from the TOB to the Fund. The TOB may also be terminated without the consent of the Fund upon the occurrence of certain events as defined in the TOB agreements. Such termination events may include the bankruptcy or default of the municipal bond, a substantial downgrade in credit quality of the municipal bond, the inability of the TOB to obtain quarterly or annual renewal of the liquidity support agreement, a substantial decline in market value of the municipal bond or the inability to remarket the short-term floating rate certificates to third party investors.

Financial transactions executed through TOBs generally will underperform the market for fixed rate municipal bonds in a rising interest rate environment, but tend to outperform the market for fixed rate municipal bonds when interest rates decline or remain relatively stable. Should short-term interest rates rise, a Fund’s investment in TOB Residuals likely will adversely affect a Fund’s net investment income and distributions to shareholders. Fluctuations in the market value of municipal securities deposited into the TOB may adversely affect a Fund’s NAV per share.

While the Funds’ investment policies and restrictions expressly permit investments in inverse floating rate securities such as TOB Residuals, they generally do not allow the Funds to borrow money for purposes of making investments. The Funds’ management believes that the Funds’ restrictions on borrowings do not apply to the secured borrowings for TOB transactions.

 

(i)  

Fair Value Measurements–Each Fund adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (formerly SFAS 157), effective October 1, 2008. In accordance with ASC 820, fair value is defined as the price that each Fund would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the investment. ASC 820 established a three-tier hierarchy to maximize the use of observable market data and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk – for example, the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value (such as a pricing model) and/or the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Observable inputs are based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are based on the best information available in the

 

223


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

 

circumstances. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below:

 

   

Level  1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments;

 

   

Level  2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.); and

 

   

Level  3 – significant unobservable inputs (including each Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

(j)   Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities–Each Fund adopted ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (formerly SFAS 161), for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009.

Each Fund, except Short Duration, entered into U.S. Treasury futures contracts during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009 (as described in note 2(f)) to hedge against changes in interest rates. The Funds bear the risk of interest rates moving unexpectedly, in which case the Funds may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the futures contracts and realize a loss. There is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Funds since futures are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees futures against default.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

As of September 30, 2009, the Funds had interest rate futures contracts with cumulative unrealized depreciation which are included in the Schedule of Investments. Only the current day’s variation margin is included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The net realized gain/(loss) and change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on futures contracts are included in the Statement of Operations under the captions Net realized loss on investments and futures contracts and Net change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments and futures contracts, respectively.

4.    DISTRIBUTIONS AND CAPITAL LOSS CARRYFORWARDS

Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Taxable net realized gains from investment transactions, reduced by allowable capital loss carryforwards, if any, are declared and distributed to shareholders at least annually. The capital loss carryforward amount, if any, is available to offset future net capital gains. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amounts of dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These book/tax differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the components of net assets based on their federal tax basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Dividends and distributions, which exceed earnings and profits for tax purposes, are reported as a tax return of capital.

There were no purchases or sales of U.S. Government securities for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009.

6.    DIRECTORS’/TRUSTEES’ REMUNERATION

The Company’s and Trust’s officers and the two Directors/Trustees who are associated with Lord Abbett do not receive any compensation from the Company or Trust for serving in such capacities. Outside Directors’/Trustees’ fees are allocated among all Lord Abbett-sponsored funds based on the net assets of each fund. There is an equity-based plan available to all outside Directors/Trustees under which outside Directors/Trustees must defer receipt of a portion of, and may elect to defer receipt of an additional portion of, Directors’/Trustees’ fees. The deferred amounts are treated as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in the funds. Such amounts and earnings accrued thereon are included in Directors’/Trustees’ fees on the Statements of Operations and in Directors’/Trustees’ fees payable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and are not deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes until such amounts are paid.

7.    EXPENSE REDUCTIONS

The Company and Trust have entered into arrangements with each Fund’s transfer agent and custodian, whereby credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances are used to reduce a portion of each Fund’s expenses.

8.    LINE OF CREDIT

High Yield, Short Duration and certain other funds managed by Lord Abbett have available an unsecured revolving credit facility (“Facility”) from State Street Bank and Trust Company (“SSB”), to be used for temporary or emergency purposes as an additional source of liquidity to fund redemptions of investor shares. The Facility is renewed annually under terms that depend on market conditions at the time of the renewal. Accordingly, effective December 5, 2008, the amount available under the Facility was changed from $250,000,000 to $200,000,000 and the annual fee to maintain the Facility (of which each participating fund pays its pro rata share based on the net assets of each participating fund) was changed from .08% of the amount available under the Facility to .125%. This amount is included in Other Expenses on the Fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under this Facility will bear interest at current market rates as set forth in the credit agreement. As of September 30, 2009, there were no loans outstanding pursuant to this Facility nor was the Facility utilized at any time during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009.

9.    CUSTODIAN AND ACCOUNTING AGENT

SSB is the Company’s and Trust’s custodian and accounting agent. SSB performs custodial, accounting and recordkeeping functions relating to portfolio transactions and calculating each Fund’s NAV.

10.    INVESTMENT RISKS

Each Fund’s performance and the value of its investments will vary in response to changes in interest rates and other market factors. As interest rates rise, a Fund’s investments typically will lose value. This risk is usually greater for long-term bonds and particularly for inverse floaters than for shorter-term bonds. As a result, each Fund, to the extent it invests in long-term bonds and inverse floaters, is subject to such greater market risk.

Additional risks that could reduce each Fund’s performance or increase volatility include call risk, governmental risk, legislative risk, management risk, reclassification risk, sector risk and credit risk. Credit risk varies among states based upon the economic and fiscal conditions of each state and the municipalities within the state.

There is the risk that an issuer of a municipal bond may fail to make timely payments of principal or interest to a Fund, a risk that is greater with municipal bonds rated below investment grade (sometimes called “lower rated bonds” or “junk bonds”). High Yield invests a significant portion of its assets in such bonds. The National Fund may invest up to 35% and all other Funds may invest up to 20% in such bonds. Some issuers, particularly of junk bonds, may default as to principal and/or interest payments after a Fund purchases their securities. A default, or concerns in the market about an increase in risk of default or the deterioration in the creditworthiness of an issuer, may result in losses to the Fund. Junk bonds are considered predominantly speculative by traditional investment standards. In addition, the market for lower rated municipal bonds generally is less

 

234


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

liquid than the market for higher rated bonds, subjecting them to greater price fluctuations which could result in losses.

Each Fund (except National, Intermediate and Short Duration) is non-diversified, which means that it may invest a greater portion of its assets in a single issuer than a diversified fund. Thus, it may be exposed to greater risk.

Because each Fund other than National, Intermediate, Short Duration and High Yield focuses on a particular state or territory, each Fund’s performance may be more affected by local, state and regional factors than a fund that invests in municipal bonds issued in many states. These factors may include, for example, economic or political developments, erosion of the tax base and the possibility of credit problems. In addition, downturns or developments in the U.S. economy or in foreign economies or significant world events may harm the performance of any of the Funds (including National, Intermediate, Short Duration and High Yield), and may do so disproportionately as a result of the corresponding disproportionate impact of such occurrences on particular state, territory, or local economies.

Each Fund (except High Yield) may invest up to 20% of its net assets in private activity bonds (sometimes called “AMT paper”). High Yield may invest up to 100% of its net assets in AMT paper. The credit quality of such bonds usually is directly related to the credit standing of the private user of the facilities.

Each Fund may invest no more than 20% of its net assets in TOB Residuals, except High Yield, which may invest up to 100% in TOB Residuals. A TOB Residual, sometimes referred to as an inverse floater or a residual interest bond (“RIB”), is a type of “derivative” debt instrument with a floating or variable interest rate that moves in the opposite direction of the interest rate on another specific fixed-rate security (“specific fixed-rate security”). Changes in the interest rate on the specific fixed-rate security inversely affect the residual interest paid on the TOB Residual, with the result that when interest rates rise, TOB Residuals’ interest payments are lowered and their value falls faster than securities similar to the specific fixed-rate security. When interest rates fall, not only do TOB Residuals generally provide interest payments that are higher than securities similar to the specific fixed-rate security, but their values generally also rise faster than such similar securities.

In addition, loss may result from a Fund’s investments in certain derivative transactions such as futures contracts, swap transactions, interest rate caps, inverse floaters and similar transactions. These instruments may be leveraged so that small changes may produce disproportionate and substantial losses to the Fund. They also may increase a Fund’s interest rate risk.

Each Fund may purchase securities on a forward commitment or when-issued basis. Delivery and payment for such securities can take place a month or more after the transaction date. During this period such securities are subject to market fluctuations.

12.    RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2009, FASB issued amended guidance for transfers of financial assets. This guidance is intended to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferor’s continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. The amended guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2009. Earlier application is prohibited. The recognition and measurement provisions of this guidance must be applied to transfers occurring on or after the effective date. Additionally, the enhanced disclosure provisions of the amended guidance should be applied to transfers that occurred both before and after the effective date of this guidance. The impact of this guidance on the Funds’ financial statement disclosures, if any, is currently being assessed.

13.    REORGANIZATIONS

On December 14, 2007, National acquired the net assets of Florida, Michigan, Minnesota, Texas and Washington, pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by each Acquired Fund’s shareholders on December 7, 2007.

The Acquired Funds’ net assets at the date of the acquisition, including $9,763,815 of unrealized appreciation, $71,879 of undistributed (distributions in excess of) net investment income, and $6,172,997 of accumulated net realized losses, were combined with those of National.

In accordance with the provisions set forth in ASC Topic 855 (formerly SFAS 165), Subsequent Events, adopted by the Funds as of September 30, 2009, management has evaluated subsequent events existing in the Funds’ financial statements through November 30, 2009. Management has determined that there were no material subsequent events that would require recognition or disclosure in the Funds’ financial statements through this date.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Lord Abbett Municipal Income Fund, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Lord Abbett Municipal Income Fund, Inc. (the "Funds") comprising Lord Abbett National Tax-Free Income Fund, Lord Abbett California Tax-Free Income Fund, Lord Abbett Connecticut Tax-Free Income Fund, Lord Abbett Hawaii Tax-Free Income Fund, Lord Abbett Missouri Tax-Free Income Fund, Lord Abbett New Jersey Tax-Free Income Fund, and Lord Abbett New York Tax-Free Income Fund as of September 30, 2009, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds' internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of September 30, 2009, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the portfolios constituting the Lord Abbett Municipal Income Fund, Inc. as of September 30, 2009, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
