PIMCO Corporate Opportunity Fund Letter to Shareholders
July 10, 2007
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to provide you with the semi-annual report for PIMCO Corporate Opportunity Fund (the Fund) for the six months ended May 31, 2007.
The U.S. bond market delivered stable, positive returns during the period as economic growth moderated and a correction in the U.S. housing market caused some weakness for bonds. The Federal Reserve (the Fed) left the Federal Funds rate unchanged at 5.25% through the period as inflation levels continued to track somewhat higher than the central banks stated comfort level.
For specific information on the Fund and its performance during the reporting period, please review the following pages.
If you have any questions regarding the information provided, we encourage you to contact your financial advisor or call the Funds shareholder servicing agent at (800) 331-1710. In addition, a wide range of information and resources is available through our Web site, www.allianzinvestors.com/closedendfunds.
Together with Allianz Global Investors Fund Management LLC, the Funds investment manager, and Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (PIMCO), the Funds sub-adviser, we thank you for investing with us.
We remain dedicated to serving your investment needs.
Sincerely,
|
|
Hans W. Kertess |

PIMCO Corporate Opportunity Fund Performance & Statistics
May 31, 2007 (unaudited)
For the six months ended May 31, 2007, PIMCO Corporate Opportunity Fund returned 2.31% on net asset value and 2.84% on market price.
The Lehman U.S. Credit and U.S. High Yield Indices generated total returns of 0.37% and 5.90%, respectively, for the six months ended May 31, 2007.
An average duration of 6.35 years detracted from the Funds total return as U.S. interest rates rose overall during the six-month period.
A relatively heavy weighting to communication issues enhanced returns as this sector outperformed during the six-month period.
The electric sector outperformed during the period, the Funds strong exposure to these issues was beneficial to performance.
Within the basic industry sector, an emphasis on paper and metals & mining issues which outperformed the broader market, was beneficial to the Fund performance.
An emphasis on banking bonds within the finance sector, which underperformed comparable treasuries, hindered performance.
The Funds quality bias was positive, given the Portfolios concentration in BB, and B rated securities, which outperformed the higher tiers of the quality spectrum.

(1) Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Total return is calculated by subtracting the value of an investment in the Fund at the beginning of each specified period from the value at the end of the period and dividing the remainder by the value of the investment at the beginning of the period and expressing the result as a percentage. The calculation assumes that all of the Funds income dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested at prices obtained under the dividend reinvestment plan. Total return does not reflect broker commissions or sales charges. Total return for a period of less than one year is not annualized. Total return for a period more than one year represents the average annual total return.
An investment in the Fund involves risk, including the loss of principal. Total return, market price, market yield and net asset value will fluctuate with changes in market conditions. This data is provided for information only and is not intended for trading purposes. Closed-end funds, unlike open-end funds, are not continuously offered. There is a one-time public offering and once issued, shares of closed-end funds are sold in the open market through a stock exchange. Net asset value is equal to total assets attributable to common shareholders less total liabilities divided by the number of common shares outstanding. Holdings are subject to change daily.
(2) Market Price Yield is determined by dividing the annualized current monthly per share dividend to common shareholders by the market price per common share at May 31, 2007.

These securities generally pay interest at rates which are periodically pre-determined by reference to a base lending rate plus a premium. These base lending rates are generally either the lending rate offered by one or more major European banks, such as the LIBOR or the prime rate offered by one or more major United States banks, or the certificate of deposit rate. These securities are generally considered to be restricted as the Fund is ordinarily contractually obligated to receive approval from the Agent bank and/or borrower prior to disposition. Remaining maturities of senior loans may be less than the stated maturities shown as a result of contractual or optional payments by the borrower. Such prepayments cannot be predicted with certainty. |
|
||||||||||
(d) |
144A Security Security exempt from registration, under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, typically only to qualified institutional buyers. Unless otherwise indicated, these securities are not considered to be illiquid. |

PIMCO Corporate Opportunity Fund Notes to Financial Statements
May 31, 2007 (unaudited)
1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
PIMCO Corporate Opportunity Fund (the Fund), was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on September 13, 2002. Prior to commencing operations on December 27, 2002, the Fund had no operations other than matters relating to its organization and registration as a diversified, closed-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and the rules and regulations there under, as amended. Allianz Global Investors Fund Management LLC (the Investment Manager) serves as the Funds Investment Manager and is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (Allianz Global). Allianz Global is an indirect, majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz SE, a publicly traded insurance and financial services company. The Fund has an unlimited amount of $0.00001 par value common stock authorized.
The Funds investment objective is to seek maximum total return through a combination of current income and capital appreciation. The Fund attempts to achieve this objective by investing in a portfolio of U.S. dollar-denominated corporate debt obligations and other corporate income-producing securities. The Fund may employ a strategy of selling options on U.S. Treasury futures and other fixed income instruments. This strategy enables the Fund to capture premiums when Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (the Sub-Adviser) believes future interest rate volatility is likely to be lower than the level of volatility implied in the options contracts. In addition, the Fund engages in interest rate and credit default swaps as part of a strategy to enhance the Funds income while managing interest rate and credit risk.
The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations which provide general indemnifications. The Funds maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet been asserted. However, the Fund expects the risk of any loss to be remote.
In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (the Interpretation). The Interpretation establishes for all entities, including pass-through entities such as the Fund, a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of positions taken in filing tax returns (including whether an entity is taxable in a particular jurisdiction), and requires certain expanded tax disclosures. The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the date of effectiveness. Fund management has recently begun to evaluate the application of the Interpretation, and is not in a position at this time to estimate the significance of its impact, if any, on the Funds financial statements. On December 22, 2006, the Securities & Exchange Commission announced that it would not object if a fund implements the Interpretation in its NAV calculation as late as its last NAV calculation in the first required financial statement reporting period for its fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2006. Consequently, the Fund will be required to comply with the Interpretation by May 31, 2008.
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 157, Fair Value Measurements, which clarifies the definition of fair value and requires companies to expand their disclosure about the use of fair value to measure assets and liabilities in interim and annual periods subsequent to initial recognition. Adoption of SFAS 157 requires the use of the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. At this time, the Fund is in the process of reviewing the SFAS 157 against its current valuation policies to determine future applicability.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund:
(a) Valuation of Investments
Portfolio securities and other financial instruments for which market quotations are readily available are stated at market value. Portfolio securities and other financial instruments for which market quotations are not readily available or if a development/event occurs that may significantly impact the value of a security, are fair-valued, in good faith, pursuant to guidelines established by the Board of Trustees, including certain fixed income securities which may be valued with reference to securities whose prices are more readily available. The Funds investments including over-the-counter options, are valued daily using prices supplied by an independent pricing service or dealer quotations, or by using the last sale price on the exchange that is the primary market for such securities, or the last quoted mean price for those securities for which the over-the-counter market is the primary market or for listed securities in which

May 31, 2007 (unaudited)
1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(a) Valuation of Investments (continued)
there were no sales. Independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. The Funds investments in senior floating rate loans (Senior Loans) for which a secondary market exists will be valued at the mean of the last available bid and asked prices in the market for such Senior Loans, as provided by an independent pricing service. Other Senior Loans are valued at fair value pursuant to procedures approved by the Funds Board of Trustees, which include consideration and evaluation of: (1) the creditworthiness of the borrower and any intermediate participants; (2) the term of the Senior Loan; (3) recent prices in the market for similar loans, if any; (4) recent prices in the market for loans of similar quality, coupon rate, and period until next interest rate reset and maturity; and (5) general economic and market conditions affecting the fair value of the Senior Loan. At May 31, 2007, no Senior Loans were fair valued. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement value. Short-term securities maturing in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, if their original term to maturity was 60 days or less, or by amortizing their value on the 61st day prior to maturity, if the original term to maturity exceeded 60 days. The prices used by the Fund to value securities may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements. The Funds net asset value is determined daily as of the close of regular trading (normally, 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on each day the NYSE is open for business.
(b) Investment Transactions and Investment Income
Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Securities purchased and sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investments are determined on the identified cost basis. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts or premiums on debt securities purchased are accreted or amortized to interest income over the lives of the respective securities using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Facility fees and other fees (such as origination fees) received by the Fund are amortized as income over the expected term of the Senior Loan. Commitment fees received by the Fund relating to unfunded purchase commitments are deferred and amortized to facility fee income over the period of the commitment.
(c) Federal Income Taxes
The Fund intends to distribute all of its taxable income and to comply with the other requirements of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies. Accordingly, no provision for U.S. federal income taxes is required.
(d) Dividends and Distributions Common Stock
The Fund declares dividends from net investment income monthly to common shareholders. Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, are paid at least annually. The Fund records dividends and distributions to its shareholders on the ex-dividend date. The amount 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 generally accepted accounting principles. These book-tax differences are considered either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their income tax treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. To the extent dividends and/or distributions exceed current and accumulated earnings and profits for federal income tax purposes; they are reported as dividends and/or distributions of paid-in capital in excess of par.
(e) Foreign Currency Translation
The Funds accounting records are maintained in U.S. dollars as follows: (1) the foreign currency market value of investments and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated at the prevailing exchange rate at the end of the period; and (2) purchases and sales, income and expenses are translated at the prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates of such transactions. The resulting net foreign currency gain or loss is included in the Statement of Operations.
The Fund does not generally isolate that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the foreign currency exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of securities. Accordingly, such foreign currency gain (loss) is included in net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments. However, the Fund does isolate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates when determining the gain or loss upon the sale or maturity of foreign currency denominated debt obligations pursuant to U.S. federal

1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(e) Foreign Currency Translation (continued)
income tax regulations; such amount is categorized as foreign currency gain or loss for both financial reporting and income tax reporting purposes.
(f) Futures Contracts
A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a financial instrument at a set price on a future date. Upon entering into such a contract, the Fund is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash or securities equal to the minimum initial margin requirements of the exchange. Pursuant to the contracts, the Fund agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in the value of the contracts. Such receipts or payments are known as variation margin and are recorded by the Fund as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. When the contracts are closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contracts at the time they were opened and the value at the time they were closed. Any unrealized appreciation or depreciation recorded is simultaneously reversed. The use of futures transactions involves the risk of an imperfect correlation in the movements in the price of futures contracts, interest rates and the underlying hedged assets, and the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.
(g) Option Transactions
The Fund may purchase and write (sell) put and call options for hedging purposes, risk management purposes or as a part of its investment strategy. The risk associated with purchasing an option is that the Fund pays a premium whether or not the option is exercised. Additionally, the Fund bears the risk of loss of premium and change in market value should the counterparty not perform under the contract. Put and call options purchased are accounted for in the same manner as portfolio securities. The cost of securities acquired through the exercise of call options is increased by the premiums paid. The proceeds from the securities sold through the exercise of put options are decreased by the premiums paid.
When an option is written, the premium received is recorded as an asset with an equal liability and is subsequently marked to market to reflect the current market value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as options written in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Premiums received from writing options which expire unexercised are recorded on the expiration date as a realized gain. The difference between the premium received and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain, or if the premium is less than the amount paid for the closing purchase transactions, as a realized loss. If a call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security in determining whether there has been a realized gain or loss. If a put option written by the Fund is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the security. In writing an option, the Fund bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option. Exercise of a written option could result in the Fund purchasing a security at a price different from its current market value.
(h) Interest Rate/Credit Default Swaps
The Fund enters into interest rate and credit default swap contracts (swaps) for investment purposes, to manage its interest rate and credit risk or to add leverage.
As a seller in the credit default swap contract, the Fund would be required to pay the notional amount or other agreed-upon value of a referenced debt obligation to the counterparty in the event of a default by a third party, such as a U.S. or foreign corporate issuer, on the referenced debt obligation. In return, the Fund would receive from the counterparty a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that no event of default has occurred. If no default occurs, the Fund would keep the stream of payments and would have no payment obligations. Such periodic payments are accrued daily and recorded as realized gain (loss).
The Fund may also purchase credit default swap contracts in order to hedge against the risk of default of debt securities held, in which case the Fund would function as the counterparty referenced in the preceding paragraph. As a purchaser of a credit default swap contract, the Fund would receive the notional amount or other agreed upon value of a referenced debt obligation from the counterparty in the event of default by a third party, such as a U.S. or foreign corporate issuer on the referenced obligation. In return, the Fund would make periodic payments to the counterparty over the term of the contract provided no event of default has occurred. Such periodic payments are accrued daily and recorded as realized gain (loss).
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Fund with a counterparty of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to a

May 31, 2007 (unaudited)
1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(h) Interest Rate/Credit Default Swaps (continued)
notional amount of principal. Net periodic payments received (paid) by the Fund is included as part of realized gain (loss) and net periodic payments accrued, but not yet received (paid) are included in change in the unrealized appreciation/depreciation on the Statements of Operations.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from brokers or market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation in the Funds Statement of Operations. For a credit default swap sold by the Fund, payment of the agreed upon amount made by the Fund in the event of default of the referenced debt obligation is recorded as the cost of the referenced debt obligation purchased/received. For a credit default swap purchased by the Fund, the agreed upon amount received by the Fund in the event of default of the referenced debt obligation is recorded as proceeds from sale/delivery of the referenced debt obligation and the resulting gain or loss realized on the referenced debt obligation is recorded as such by the Fund.
Entering into swaps involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of the contractual terms in the agreements, and that there may be unfavorable changes in net interest rates.
(i) Senior Loans
The Fund may purchase assignments of Senior Loans originated, negotiated and structured by a U.S. or foreign commercial bank, insurance company, finance company or other financial institution (the Agent) for a lending syndicate of financial institutions (the Lender). When purchasing an assignment, the Fund succeeds to all the rights and obligations under the loan agreement with the same rights and obligations as the assigning Lender. Assignments may, however, be arranged through private negotiations between potential assignees and potential assignors, and the rights and obligations acquired by the purchaser of an assignment may differ from, and be more limited than, those held by the assigning Lender.
(j) Forward Foreign Currency Contracts
A forward foreign currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set exchange rate on a future date. The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts for the purpose of hedging against foreign currency risk arising from the investment or anticipated investment in securities denominated in foreign currencies. The Fund may also enter into these contracts for purposes of increasing exposure to a foreign currency or to shift exposure to foreign currency fluctuations from one country to another. The market value of a forward foreign currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. All commitments are marked to market daily at the applicable exchange rates and any resulting unrealized appreciation or depreciation is recorded. Realized gains or losses are recorded at the time the forward contract matures or by delivery of the currency. Risks may arise upon entering these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.
(k) Credit-Linked Trust Certificates
Credit-linked trust certificates are investments in a limited purpose trust or other vehicle formed under state law which, in turn, invests in a basket of derivative instruments, such as credit default swaps, interest rate swaps and other securities, in order to provide exposure to the high yield or another fixed income market.
Similar to an investment in a bond, investments in credit-linked trust certificates represent the right to receive periodic income payments (in the form of distributions) and payment of principal at the end of the term of the certificate. However, these payments are conditioned on the trusts receipt of payments from, and the trusts potential obligations to, the counterparties to the derivative instruments and other securities in which the trust invests.
(l) Repurchase Agreements
The Fund enters into transactions with its custodian bank or other financial institution whereby it purchases securities under an agreement to resell them at an agreed upon price and date (repurchase agreements). Such agreements are carried at the contract amount in the financial statements. Collateral pledged (the securities received), which consists primarily of U.S. government obligations and asset-backed securities, are held by the custodian bank until maturity of the repurchase agreement. Provisions of the repurchase agreements and the procedures adopted by the Fund require that the market value of the collateral, including accrued interest thereon, is sufficient in the event of default by the

(l) Repurchase Agreements (continued)
counterparty. If the counterparty defaults and the value of the collateral declines or if the counterparty enters an insolvency proceeding, realization of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or limited.
(m) Reverse Repurchase Agreements
In a reverse repurchase agreement, the Fund sells securities to a financial institution and agrees to repurchase the securities at a mutually agreed date and price. Generally, the effect of such a transaction is that the Fund can recover and reinvest all or most of the cash invested in the portfolio securities involved during the term of the reverse repurchase agreement and still be entitled to the returns associated with those portfolio securities. Such transactions are advantageous if the interest cost to the Fund of the reverse repurchase transaction is less than the returns it obtains on investments purchased with the cash. Unless the Fund covers its positions in reverse repurchase agreements (by segregating liquid assets at least equal in amount to the forward purchase commitment), its obligations under the agreements will be subject to the Funds limitations on borrowings. Reverse repurchase agreements involve leverage risk and also the risk that the market value of the securities that the Fund is obligated to repurchase under the agreement may decline below the repurchase price. In the event the buyer of securities under a reverse repurchase agreement files for bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, the Funds use of the proceeds of the agreement may be restricted pending determination by the other party, or its trustee or receiver, whether to enforce the Funds obligation to repurchase the securities. At May 31, 2007, the Fund had no reverse repurchase agreements outstanding.
(n) When-Issued/Delayed-Delivery Transactions
The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. The transactions involve a commitment to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Fund will set aside and maintain until the settlement date in a designated account, liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Fund assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. The Fund may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a realized gain or loss. When a security on a delayed-delivery basis is sold, the Fund does not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.
(o) Inverse Floating Rate TransactionsResidual Interest Municipal Bonds (RIBs) / Residual Interest Tax Exempt Bonds (RITEs)
The Fund invests in RIBs and RITEs (Inverse Floaters) whose interest rates bear an inverse relationship to the interest rate on another security or the value of an index. In these transactions, the Fund sells a fixed rate municipal bond (Fixed Rate Bond) to a broker who places the Fixed Rate Bond in a special purpose trust (Trust) from which floating rate bonds (Floating Rate Notes) and Inverse Floaters are issued. The Fund simultaneously or within a short period of time purchases the Inverse Floaters from the broker. The Inverse Floaters held by the Fund provide the Fund with the right to: (1) cause the holders of the Floating Rate Notes to tender their notes at par, and (2) cause the broker to transfer the Fixed-Rate Bond held by the Trust to the Fund, thereby collapsing the Trust. Pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140 (FASB Statement No. 140), the Fund accounts for the transaction described above as a secured borrowing by including the Fixed-Rate Bond in its Schedule of Investments, and account for the Floating Rate Notes as a liability under the caption Payable for floating rate notes in the Funds Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Floating Rate Notes have interest rates that generally reset weekly and their holders have the option to tender their notes to the broker for redemption at par at each reset date. The Fund may also invest in inverse floaters without transferring a fixed rate municipal bond into a special purpose trust, which is not accounted for as a secured borrowing.
Inverse Floaters are created by dividing the income stream provided by the underlying bonds to create two securities, one short-term and one long-term. The interest rate on the short-term component is reset by an index or auction process typically every 7 to 35 days. After income is paid on the short-term securities at current rates, the residual income from the underlying bond(s) goes to the long-term securities. Therefore, rising short-term rates result in lower income for the long-term component and visa versa. The longer-term bonds may be more volatile and less liquid than other municipal bonds of comparable maturity. Investments in Inverse Floaters typically will involve greater risk than an investment in Fixed Rate Bonds. The Fund may also invest in Inverse Floaters for the purpose of increasing leverage.

May 31, 2007 (unaudited)
1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(o) Inverse Floating Rate TransactionsResidual Interest Municipal Bonds (RIBs) / Residual Interest Tax Exempt Bonds (RITEs) (continued)
The Funds investment policies and restrictions expressly permit investments in Inverse Floaters. The Funds restrictions on borrowings do not apply to the secured borrowings deemed to have occurred for accounting purposes pursuant to FASB Statement No. 140. Inverse Floaters held by the Fund are exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933.
(p) Interest Expense
Interest expense relates to the Funds liability in connection with floating rate notes held by third parties in conjunction with Inverse Floater transactions. Interest expense is recorded as incurred.
(q) Custody Credits on Cash Balances
The Fund benefits from an expense offset arrangement with its custodian bank whereby uninvested cash balances earn credits which reduce monthly custodian and accounting agent expenses. Had these cash balances been invested in income producing securities, they would have generated income for the Fund.
2. Investment Manager/Sub-Adviser
The Fund has entered an Investment Management Agreement (the Agreement) with the Investment Manager. Subject to the supervision of the Funds Board of Trustees, the Investment Manager is responsible for managing, either directly or through others selected by it, the Funds investment activities, business affairs and administrative matters. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Investment Manager receives an annual fee, payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.60% of the Funds average daily net assets, including of net assets attributable to any preferred shares that may be outstanding.
The Investment Manager has retained the Sub-Adviser to manage the Funds investments. Subject to the supervision of the Investment Manager, the Sub-Adviser is responsible for making the Funds investment decisions. The Investment Manager and not the Fund, pays a portion of the fees it receives as Investment Manager to the Sub-Adviser based upon a percentage of the Funds average daily net assets, inclusive of net assets attributable to any preferred shares that may be outstanding, in return for its services.
3. Investment in Securities
For the six months ended May 31, 2007, purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term securities and U.S. government obligations, were $281,991,646 and $264,615,293, respectively. Purchases and sales in U.S. government obligations were $0 and $22,832, respectively.

4. Income Tax Information
Net investment income and net realized gains differ for financial statement and tax purposes primarily due to the treatment of amounts received under swap agreements. For the six months ended May 31, 2007, the Fund received $12,235,188.93 from swap agreements, which are treated as net realized gain (loss) for financial statement purposes and as net income (loss) for federal income tax purposes.
The cost basis of portfolio securities of $1,476,630,875 is substantially the same for both financial reporting purposes and federal income tax purposes. Aggregated gross unrealized appreciation for securities in which there is an excess value over tax cost is $90,860,822; aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for securities in which there is an excess of tax cost over value is $10,086,640; net unrealized appreciation for federal income tax purposes is $80,774,182.
5. Auction Preferred Shares
The Fund has issued 4,520 shares of Preferred Shares Series M, 4,520 shares of Preferred Shares Series T, 4,520 shares of Preferred Shares Series W, 4,520 shares of Preferred Shares Series TH and 4,520 shares of Preferred Shares Series F each with a net asset and liquidation value of $25,000 per share plus accrued dividends.
Dividends are accumulated daily at an annual rate (typically re-set every seven days) through auction procedures. Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, are paid annually.
For the six months ended May 31, 2007, the annualized dividend rate ranged from:

The Fund is subject to certain limitations and restrictions while Preferred Shares are outstanding. Failure to comply with these limitations and restrictions could preclude the Fund from declaring any dividends or distributions to common shareholders or repurchasing common shares and/or could trigger the mandatory redemption of Preferred Shares at their liquidation value.
Preferred Shares, which are entitled to one vote per share, generally vote together with the common stock but vote separately as a class to elect two Trustees and on any matters affecting the rights of the Preferred Shares.
6. Subsequent Common Dividend Declarations
On June 1, 2007, a dividend of $0.115 per share was declared to common shareholders payable July 2, 2007 to shareholders of record on June 11, 2007.
On July 2, 2007 a dividend of $0.115 per share was declared to common shareholders payable August 1, 2007 to shareholders of record on July 12, 2007.
7. Legal Proceedings
In June and September 2004, the Investment Manager, certain of its affiliates (including Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC and PEA Capital LLC and Allianz Global), agreed to settle, without admitting or denying the allegations, claims brought by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission), the New Jersey Attorney General and the California Attorney General alleging violations of federal and state securities laws with respect to certain open-end funds for which the Investment Manager serves as investment adviser. Two settlements (with the Commission and New Jersey) related to an alleged market timing arrangement in certain open-end funds sub-advised by PEA Capital LLC. Two settlements (with the Commission and California) related to the alleged use of cash and fund portfolio commissions to finance shelf-space arrangements with broker-dealers for open-end funds. The Investment Manager and its affiliates agreed to pay a total of $68 million to settle the claims related to market timing and $20.6 million to settle the claims related to shelf space. In addition to monetary payments, the settling parties agreed to undertake certain corporate governance, compliance and disclosure reforms related to market timing, brokerage commissions, revenue sharing and shelf space arrangements, and consented to cease and desist orders and censures. None of the settlements alleged that any inappropriate activity took place with respect to the Fund.

7. Legal Proceedings (continued)
Since February 2004, the Investment Manager and certain of its affiliates and their employees have been named as defendants in a number of pending lawsuits concerning market timing, and revenue sharing/shelf space/directed brokerage, which allege the same or similar conduct underlying the regulatory settlements discussed above. The market timing lawsuits have been consolidated in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, and the revenue sharing/shelf space/directed brokerage lawsuits have been consolidated in the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut. Any potential resolution of these matters may include, but not be limited to, judgments or settlements for damages against the Investment Manager or its affiliates or related injunctions.
The Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Fund or on their ability to perform their respective investment advisory activities relating to the Fund.
The foregoing speaks only as of the date hereof.

Total investment return is calculated assuming a purchase of a share of common stock at the current market price on the first day and a sale of a share of common stock at the current market price on the last day of each period reported. Dividends and distributions are assumed, for purposes of this calculation, to be reinvested at prices obtained under the Funds dividend reinvestment plan. Total investment return does not reflect brokerage commissions or sales charges. Total investment return for a period of less than one year is not annualized. |

|
Calculated on the basis of income and expenses applicable to both common and preferred shares relative to the average net assets of common shareholders. |

|
Inclusive of expenses offset by custody credits earned on cash balances at the custodian bank. (See note 1(q) in Notes to Financial Statements). |
