Municipal Market Overview For the Reporting Period Ended January 31, 2025
Municipal Market Conditions
Volatility was heightened across fixed income markets as the Federal Reserve (“Fed”) began to ease monetary policy and the contentious election cycle ended in a Republican sweep. While front-end interest rates fell, intermediate and long-end rates surprisingly rose amid stronger than expected economic growth and fiscal deficit concerns. Municipal bonds started the year slow but rebounded as seasonals turned increasingly positive in the summer. Weakness in the fourth quarter eroded most of the gains, before a volatile but virtually flat January ended the period. The Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index returned 2.08% as high yield bonds, barbell yield curve strategies, and the Puerto Rico, IDR/PCR, and housing sectors performed best. On a relative basis, the asset class outperformed versus duration matched Treasuries.
| Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index (a) | ||
|---|---|---|
| Total Returns as of January 31, 2025 | ||
| 6 | months: | 1.05% |
| 12 | months: | 2.08% |
During the 12-months ended January 31, 2025, municipal bond funds experienced net inflows totaling $27 billion (based on data from the Investment Company Institute), concentrated in long-term and high yield funds. At the same time, the market absorbed $494 billion in issuance, a 35% year-over-year increase, boosted by increased borrowing needs on the back of deferred maintenance and elevated inflation as well as a pull forward of supply ahead of the election.
A Closer Look at Yields
AAA Municipal Yield Curves
Source: Thomson Municipal Market Data.
From January 31, 2024, to January 31, 2025, yields on AAA-rated 30-year municipal bonds increased by 45 basis points (bps) from 3.52% to 3.97%, ten-year yields increased by 59 bps from 2.38% to 2.97%, five-year yields increased by 41 bps from 2.36% to 2.77%, and two-year yields increased by 3 bps from 2.64% to 2.67% (as measured by Refinitiv Municipal Market Data). As a result, the municipal yield curve steepened over the 12-month period with the spread between two- and 30-year maturities steepening by 42 bps to a slope of 130 bps, lagging the 63 bps of steepening experienced by the Treasury curve.
Despite a slight cheapening of the asset class during the period, relative valuations remain historically rich and should continue to limit interest from crossover investors.
Financial Conditions of Municipal Issuers
Most municipal issuers are stable, as tax receipts and spending have normalized since the COVID era. With reserves at record highs, debt service burdens near 50-year lows, and pension funding levels dramatically improving, states are well positioned to weather an economic slowdown or significant targeted changes to federal spending or tax policy. Local governments and suburban school districts that primarily rely on property tax revenues typically fare well during a slowdown. However, affordability is becoming a concern as the rapid appreciation of home values drives property taxes and homeowner insurance costs higher. Large cities have adjusted to declining commercial real estate values, but changes to federal immigration policy will create near-term budgetary pressure. We view changes in federal tax and spending policy as the largest risk to the sector since federal funds represent, on average, 35% of state budgets. States with higher poverty rates and limited own-source revenue rely more on federal aid, making it difficult to enact dramatic across-the-board cuts to large non-discretionary programs such as Medicaid.
We continue to favor revenue-sector issuers over state and local governments since they are typically lower-rated and offer additional yield. Most municipal revenue sector borrowers are highly defensive, as they are monopolistic providers of essential services that can raise user fees to cover operations. In the investment-grade sector, we prefer single-A and triple-B bonds. We also favor prepaid gas and housing bonds that offer attractive yields, high quality, and good liquidity.
The opinions expressed are those of BlackRock as of January 31, 2025 and are subject to change at any time due to changes in market or economic conditions. The comments should not be construed as a recommendation of any individual holdings or market sectors. Investing involves risk including loss of principal. Bond values fluctuate in price so the value of your investment can go down depending on market conditions. Fixed income risks include interest-rate and credit risk. Typically, when interest rates rise, there is a corresponding decline in bond values. Credit risk refers to the possibility that the bond issuer will not be able to make principal and interest payments. There may be less information on the financial condition of municipal issuers than for public corporations. The market for municipal bonds may be less liquid than for taxable bonds. Some investors may be subject to Alternative Minimum Tax (“AMT”). Capital gains distributions, if any, are taxable.
(a) The Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index, a broad, market value-weighted index, seeks to measure the performance of the U.S. municipal bond market. All bonds in the index are exempt from U.S. federal income taxes or subject to the AMT. Past performance is not an indication of future results. Index performance is shown for illustrative purposes only. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

The Benefits and Risks of Leveraging
The Funds may utilize leverage to seek to enhance the distribution rate on, and net asset value (“NAV”) of, their common shares (“Common Shares”). However, there is no guarantee that these objectives can be achieved in all interest rate environments.
In general, the concept of leveraging is based on the premise that the financing cost of leverage, which is based on short-term interest rates, is normally lower than the income earned by a Fund on its longer-term portfolio investments purchased with the proceeds from leverage. To the extent that the total assets of each Fund (including the assets obtained from leverage) are invested in higher-yielding portfolio investments, each Fund ’ s shareholders benefit from the incremental net income. The interest earned on securities purchased with the proceeds from leverage (after paying the leverage costs) is paid to shareholders in the form of dividends, and the value of these portfolio holdings (less the leverage liability) is reflected in the per share NAV.
To illustrate these concepts, assume a Fund ’ s Common Shares capitalization is $100 million and it utilizes leverage for an additional $30 million, creating a total value of $130 million available for investment in longer-term income securities. If prevailing short-term interest rates are 3% and longer-term interest rates are 6%, the yield curve has a strongly positive slope. In this case, a Fund ’ s financing costs on the $30 million of proceeds obtained from leverage are based on the lower short-term interest rates. At the same time, the securities purchased by a Fund with the proceeds from leverage earn income based on longer-term interest rates. In this case, a Fund ’ s financing cost of leverage is significantly lower than the income earned on a Fund ’ s longer-term investments acquired from such leverage proceeds, and therefore the holders of Common Shares (“Common Shareholders”) are the beneficiaries of the incremental net income.
However, in order to benefit Common Shareholders, the return on assets purchased with leverage proceeds must exceed the ongoing costs associated with the leverage. If interest and other costs of leverage exceed a Fund ’ s return on assets purchased with leverage proceeds, income to shareholders is lower than if a Fund had not used leverage. In such circumstance, the investment adviser may nevertheless determine to maintain a Fund ’ s leverage if it deems such action to be appropriate. Furthermore, the value of the Funds’ portfolio investments generally varies inversely with the direction of long-term interest rates, although other factors can influence the value of portfolio investments. In contrast, the amount of each Fund ’ s obligations under its respective leverage arrangement generally does not fluctuate in relation to interest rates. As a result, changes in interest rates can influence the Funds’ NAVs positively or negatively. Changes in the future direction of interest rates are very difficult to predict accurately, and there is no assurance that a Fund ’ s intended leveraging strategy will be successful.
The use of leverage also generally causes greater changes in each Fund ’ s NAV, market price and dividend rates than comparable portfolios without leverage. In a declining market, leverage is likely to cause a greater decline in the NAV and market price of a Fund’s Common Shares than if the Fund were not leveraged. In addition, each Fund may be required to sell portfolio securities at inopportune times or at distressed values in order to comply with regulatory requirements applicable to the use of leverage or as required by the terms of leverage instruments, which may cause the Fund to incur losses. The use of leverage may limit a Fund’s ability to invest in certain types of securities or use certain types of hedging strategies. Each Fund incurs expenses in connection with the use of leverage, all of which are borne by Common Shareholders and may reduce income to the Common Shares. Moreover, to the extent the calculation of each Fund ’ s investment advisory fees includes assets purchased with the proceeds of leverage, the investment advisory fees payable to the Funds’ investment adviser will be higher than if the Funds did not use leverage.
To obtain leverage, each Fund has issued Variable Rate Muni Term Preferred Shares (“VMTP Shares" or “Preferred Shares”) and/or leveraged its assets through the use of tender option bond trusts (“TOB Trusts”) as described in the Notes to Financial Statements.
Under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), each Fund is permitted to borrow money (including through the use of TOB Trusts) or issue debt securities up to 33 1/3% of its total managed assets or equity securities (e.g., Preferred Shares) up to 50% of its total managed assets. A Fund may voluntarily elect to limit its leverage to less than the maximum amount permitted under the 1940 Act. In addition, a Fund may also be subject to certain asset coverage, leverage or portfolio composition requirements imposed by the Preferred Shares’ governing instruments or by agencies rating the Preferred Shares, which may be more stringent than those imposed by the 1940 Act.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Funds may invest in various derivative financial instruments. These instruments are used to obtain exposure to a security, commodity, index, market, and/or other assets without owning or taking physical custody of securities, commodities and/or other referenced assets or to manage market, equity, credit, interest rate, foreign currency exchange rate, commodity and/or other risks. Derivative financial instruments may give rise to a form of economic leverage and involve risks, including the imperfect correlation between the value of a derivative financial instrument and the underlying asset, possible default of the counterparty to the transaction or illiquidity of the instrument. Pursuant to Rule 18f-4 under the 1940 Act, among other things, the Funds must either use derivative financial instruments with embedded leverage in a limited manner or comply with an outer limit on fund leverage risk based on value-at-risk. The Funds ’ successful use of a derivative financial instrument depends on the investment adviser’s ability to predict pertinent market movements accurately, which cannot be assured. The use of these instruments may result in losses greater than if they had not been used, may limit the amount of appreciation a Fund can realize on an investment and/or may result in lower distributions paid to shareholders. The Funds’ investments in these instruments, if any, are discussed in detail in the Notes to Financial Statements.

Fund Summary as of January 31, 2025 (continued)
BlackRock Investment Quality Municipal Trust, Inc. (BKN)
The following discussion relates to the Fund’s absolute performance based on NAV:
Income contributed to the Fund’s return during the reporting period, but the benefit was largely offset by the impact of falling prices. The bond market faced headwinds from concerns that robust economic growth and sticky inflation would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to slow the pace of its interest rate cuts.
Holdings in high yield and lower-rated investment-grade bond made a positive contribution to absolute performance. At the sector level, corporate-backed was the best performer driven by both spread tightening and income. On the other hand, holdings in longer-duration investment-grade issues detracted. (Duration is a measure of interest rate sensitivity.) The Fund’s strategy of using U.S. Treasury futures to manage interest rate risk was also a modest detractor from performance.
The views expressed reflect the opinions of BlackRock as of the date of this report and are subject to change based on changes in market, economic or other conditions. These views are not intended to be a forecast of future events and are no guarantee of future results.

BlackRock Municipal Income Trust (BFK)
The following discussion relates to the Fund’s absolute performance based on NAV:
Income contributed to the Fund’s return during the reporting period, but the benefit was largely offset by the impact of falling prices. The bond market faced headwinds from concerns that robust economic growth and sticky inflation would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to pause the process of cutting interest rates.
The Fund’s holdings in higher-quality, investment-grade securities produced positive absolute returns. At the sector level, the largest positive contributions came from tax-backed state, transportation, corporate-backed, and healthcare issues.
The Fund’s strategy of using U.S. Treasury futures to manage interest rate risk did not have a meaningful impact on performance. The Fund’s use of leverage detracted from results at a time of price weakness and elevated borrowing costs. Holdings in longer-maturity, discount-coupon bonds were a further detractor.

BlackRock Municipal Income Trust II (BLE)
Investment Objective
BlackRock Municipal Income Trust II ’ s ( BLE ) (the “ Fund ”) investment objective is to provide current income exempt from regular U.S. federal income tax. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in municipal bonds exempt from U.S. federal income taxes (except that the interest may be subject to the U.S. federal alternative minimum tax). The Fund invests, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its managed assets in municipal bonds that are investment grade quality at the time of investment or, if unrated, determined to be of comparable quality by the investment adviser at the time of investment. The Fund may invest directly in securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives.
No assurance can be given that the Fund’s investment objective will be achieved.

Fund Summary as of January 31, 2025 (continued)
BlackRock Municipal Income Trust II (BLE)
The following discussion relates to the Fund’s absolute performance based on NAV:
Income contributed to the Fund’s return during the reporting period, but the benefit was largely offset by the impact of falling prices. The bond market faced headwinds from concerns that robust economic growth and sticky inflation would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to slow the pace of its interest rate cuts.
In this environment, the Fund’s holdings in longer-maturity bonds generally experienced the weakest returns. However, positions in shorter-term issues contributed positively. The Fund’s use of leverage detracted from results given the weakness in municipal bond prices.
At the sector level, holdings in state tax-backed and housing issues made the largest contributions to absolute returns. On the other hand, the healthcare sector was the most notable detractor.
The views expressed reflect the opinions of BlackRock as of the date of this report and are subject to change based on changes in market, economic or other conditions. These views are not intended to be a forecast of future events and are no guarantee of future results.

Fund Summary as of January 31, 2025 (continued)
BlackRock MuniHoldings Fund, Inc. (MHD)
The following discussion relates to the Fund’s absolute performance based on NAV:
Income contributed to the Fund’s return during the reporting period, but the benefit was largely offset by the impact of falling prices. The bond market faced headwinds from concerns that robust economic growth and sticky inflation would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to slow the pace of its interest rate cuts.
Holdings in high yield and lower-rated investment-grade bonds made a positive contribution to absolute performance. At the sector level, corporate-backed was the best performer driven by both spread tightening and income. On the other hand, holdings in longer-duration investment-grade issues detracted. (Duration is a measure of interest rate sensitivity.) The Fund’s strategy of using U.S. Treasury futures to manage interest rate risk was also a modest detractor.

Fund Summary as of January 31, 2025 (continued)

Holdings in the transportation, corporate-backed, and pre-refunded sectors were the leading contributors to absolute performance, while healthcare, utilities, and tobacco detracted. In terms of rating tiers, BBB, AA, A, and unrated securities were the largest contributors. Positions in shorter-term issues contributed, but holdings in bonds with maturities of 20 years and above generally experienced weak returns in the rising-rate environment. The Fund’s use of U.S. Treasury futures to manage interest rate risk was an additional detractor. Holdings in premium-coupon issues contributed positively.

Fund Summary as of January 31, 2025 (continued)
BlackRock MuniVest Fund II, Inc. (MVT)
In this environment, the Fund’s holdings in longer-maturity bonds generally experienced the weakest returns. However, positions in shorter-term issues contributed positively. The Fund’s use of leverage detracted from results given the weakness in municipal bond prices.
At the sector level, transportation and housing issues made the largest contributions to absolute returns. On the other hand, the healthcare sector was the most notable detractor.

Fund Summary as of January 31, 2025
BlackRock MuniYield Quality Fund II, Inc. (MQT)
Investment Objective
BlackRock MuniYield Quality Fund II, Inc. ’ s ( MQT ) (the “ Fund ”) investment objective is to provide shareholders with as high a level of current income exempt from U.S federal income taxes as is consistent with its investment policies and prudent investment management. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing at least 80% of its assets in municipal bonds exempt from U.S. federal income taxes (except that the interest may be subject to the U.S federal alternative minimum tax). The Fund invests in municipal bonds which are in the three highest quality rating categories (A or better), or are deemed to be of comparable quality by the investment adviser at the time of investment. The Fund invests primarily in long-term municipal bonds with maturities of more than ten years at the time of investment. The Fund may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives.
No assurance can be given that the Fund’s investment objective will be achieved.
On January 20, 2025, the Board of Directors/Trustees of BlackRock Investment Quality Municipal Trust, Inc. (BKN), BlackRock MuniYield Fund, Inc. (MYD) and the Fund (collectively, the “Target Funds”) approved the reorganization of each Target Fund into BlackRock MuniYield Quality Fund, Inc. (MQY), with MQY continuing as the surviving Fund. Subject to the requisite approvals by each Fund’s respective common and preferred shareholders and the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, the reorganizations are expected to be completed in the second half of 2025.

Fund Summary as of January 31, 2025 (continued)
BlackRock MuniYield Quality Fund II, Inc. (MQT)
The following discussion relates to the Fund’s absolute performance based on NAV:
Income contributed to the Fund’s return during the reporting period, but the benefit was largely offset by the impact of falling prices. The bond market faced headwinds from concerns that robust economic growth and sticky inflation would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to slow the pace of its interest rate cuts.
Holdings in high yield and lower-rated investment-grade bond made a positive contribution to absolute performance. At the sector level, corporate-backed was the best performer driven by both spread tightening and income. On the other hand, holdings in longer-duration investment-grade issues detracted. (Duration is a measure of interest rate sensitivity.) The Fund’s strategy of using U.S. Treasury futures to manage interest rate risk was also a modest detractor from performance.
The views expressed reflect the opinions of BlackRock as of the date of this report and are subject to change based on changes in market, economic or other conditions. These views are not intended to be a forecast of future events and are no guarantee of future results.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), which may require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements, 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. Each Fund is considered an investment company under U.S. GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies. Below is a summary of significant accounting policies:
Investment Transactions and Income Recognition: For financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are recorded on the dates the transactions are executed. Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined using the specific identification method. Dividend income and capital gain distributions, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend dates. Non-cash dividends, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend dates at fair value. Interest income, including amortization and accretion of premiums and discounts on debt securities, is recognized daily on an accrual basis.
Cash: The Funds may maintain cash at their custodian which, at times may exceed United States federally insured limits. The Funds may, at times, have outstanding cash disbursements that exceed deposited cash amounts at the custodian during the reporting period. The Funds are obligated to repay the custodian for any overdraft, including any related costs or expenses, where applicable. For financial reporting purposes, overdraft fees, if any, are included in interest expense in the Statements of Operations.
Collateralization: If required by an exchange or counterparty agreement, the Funds may be required to deliver/deposit cash and/or securities to/with an exchange, or broker-dealer or custodian as collateral for certain investments.
Distributions: Distributions from net investment income are declared and paid monthly. Distributions of capital gains are recorded on the ex-dividend dates and made at least annually. The portion of distributions, if any, that exceeds a fund’s current and accumulated earnings and profits, as measured on a tax basis, constitute a non-taxable return of capital. The character and timing of distributions are determined in accordance with U.S. federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP.
Distributions to Preferred Shareholders are accrued and determined as described in Note 10 .
Deferred Compensation Plan: Under the Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) approved by each Board, the directors who are not “interested persons” of the Funds, as defined in the 1940 Act (“Independent Directors”), may defer a portion of their annual complex-wide compensation. Deferred amounts earn an approximate return as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in common shares of certain funds in the BlackRock Fixed-Income Complex selected by the Independent Directors. This has the same economic effect for the Independent Directors as if the Independent Directors had invested the deferred amounts directly in certain funds in the BlackRock Fixed-Income Complex.
The Plan is not funded and obligations thereunder represent general unsecured claims against the general assets of each Fund, as applicable. Deferred compensation liabilities, if any, are included in the Directors ’ and Officer ’ s fees payable in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and will remain as a liability of the Funds until such amounts are distributed in accordance with the Plan. Net appreciation (depreciation) in the value of participants’ deferral accounts is allocated among the participating funds in the
96
2025 BlackRock Semi-Annual Report to Shareholders
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
BlackRock Fixed-Income Complex and reflected as Directors and Officer expense on the Statements of Operations. The Directors and Officer expense may be negative as a result of a decrease in value of the deferred accounts.
Indemnifications: In the normal course of business, a Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations that provide general indemnification. A Fund ’ s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown because it involves future potential claims against a Fund, which cannot be predicted with any certainty.
Other: Expenses directly related to a Fund are charged to that Fund. Other operating expenses shared by several funds, including other funds managed by the Manager, are prorated among those funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods.
The Funds have an arrangement with their custodian whereby credits are earned on uninvested cash balances, which could be used to reduce custody fees and/or overdraft charges.
Segment Reporting: The Funds adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Update 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) – Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”) during the period. The Funds ’ adoption of the new standard impacted financial statement disclosures only and did not affect each Fund ’ s financial position or results of operations.
The Chief Financial Officer acts as the Funds ’ Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM’) and is responsible for assessing performance and allocating resources with respect to each Fund. The CODM has concluded that each Fund operates as a single operating segment since the Funds have a single investment strategy as disclosed in their prospectus, against which the CODM assesses performance. The financial information provided to and reviewed by the CODM is presented within the Funds ’ financial statements.
3.
INVESTMENT VALUATION AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Investment Valuation Policies: Each Fund ’ s investments are valued at fair value (also referred to as “market value” within the financial statements) each day that the Fund is open for business and, for financial reporting purposes, as of the report date. U.S. GAAP defines fair value as the price a fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Board has approved the designation of each Fund’s Manager as the valuation designee for each Fund. Each Fund determines the fair values of its financial instruments using various independent dealers or pricing services under the Manager’s policies. If a security’s market price is not readily available or does not otherwise accurately represent the fair value of the security, the security will be valued in accordance with the Manager’s policies and procedures as reflecting fair value. The Manager has formed a committee (the “Valuation Committee”) to develop pricing policies and procedures and to oversee the pricing function for all financial instruments, with assistance from other BlackRock pricing committees.
Fair Value Inputs and Methodologies: The following methods and inputs are used to establish the fair value of each Fund ’ s assets and liabilities:
• Fixed-income investments for which market quotations are readily available are generally valued using the last available bid price or current market quotations provided by independent dealers or third-party pricing services. Pricing services generally value fixed-income securities assuming orderly transactions of an institutional round lot size, but a fund may hold or transact in such securities in smaller, odd lot sizes. Odd lots may trade at lower prices than institutional round lots. The pricing services may use matrix pricing or valuation models that utilize certain inputs and assumptions to derive values, including transaction data (e.g., recent representative bids and offers), market data, credit quality information, perceived market movements, news, and other relevant information. Certain fixed-income securities, including asset-backed and mortgage related securities may be valued based on valuation models that consider the estimated cash flows of each tranche of the entity, establish a benchmark yield and develop an estimated tranche specific spread to the benchmark yield based on the unique attributes of the tranche. The amortized cost method of valuation may be used with respect to debt obligations with sixty days or less remaining to maturity unless the Manager determines such method does not represent fair value.
• Investments in open-end U.S. mutual funds (including money market funds) are valued at that day’s NAV.
• Futures contracts are valued based on that day’s last reported settlement or trade price on the exchange where the contract is traded.
If events (e.g., market volatility, company announcement or a natural disaster) occur that are expected to materially affect the value of such investment, or in the event that application of these methods of valuation results in a price for an investment that is deemed not to be representative of the market value of such investment, or if a price is not available, the investment will be valued by the Valuation Committee in accordance with the Manager’s policies and procedures as reflecting fair value (“Fair Valued Investments”). The fair valuation approaches that may be used by the Valuation Committee include market approach, income approach and cost approach. Valuation techniques such as discounted cash flow, use of market comparables and matrix pricing are types of valuation approaches and are typically used in determining fair value. When determining the price for Fair Valued Investments, the Valuation Committee seeks to determine the price that each Fund might reasonably expect to receive or pay from the current sale or purchase of that asset or liability in an arm’s-length transaction. Fair value determinations shall be based upon all available factors that the Valuation Committee deems relevant and consistent with the principles of fair value measurement as of the measurement date.
Fair Value Hierarchy: Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of financial instruments at the measurement date. These inputs to valuation techniques are categorized into a fair value hierarchy consisting of three broad levels for financial reporting purposes as follows:
• Level 1 – Unadjusted price quotations in active markets/exchanges that each Fund has the ability to access for identical assets or liabilities;
• Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
• Level 3 – Inputs that are unobservable and significant to the entire fair value measurement for the asset or liability (including the Valuation Committee’s assumptions used in determining the fair value of financial instruments).
Notes to Financial Statements
97
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the fair value hierarchy classification is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Investments classified within Level 3 have significant unobservable inputs used by the Valuation Committee in determining the price for Fair Valued Investments. Level 3 investments include equity or debt issued by privately held companies or funds that may not have a secondary market and/or may have a limited number of investors. The categorization of a value determined for financial instruments is based on the pricing transparency of the financial instruments and is not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.
4.
SECURITIES AND OTHER INVESTMENTS
Zero-Coupon Bonds: Zero-coupon bonds are normally issued at a significant discount from face value and do not provide for periodic interest payments. These bonds may experience greater volatility in market value than other debt obligations of similar maturity which provide for regular interest payments.
Forward Commitments, When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Securities: The Funds may purchase securities on a when-issued basis and may purchase or sell securities on a forward commitment basis. Settlement of such transactions normally occurs within a month or more after the purchase or sale commitment is made. The Funds may purchase securities under such conditions with the intention of actually acquiring them but may enter into a separate agreement to sell the securities before the settlement date. Since the value of securities purchased may fluctuate prior to settlement, the Funds may be required to pay more at settlement than the security is worth. In addition, a fund is not entitled to any of the interest earned prior to settlement. When purchasing a security on a delayed delivery basis, the Funds assume the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations. In the event of default by the counterparty, the Funds ’ maximum amount of loss is the unrealized appreciation of unsettled when-issued transactions. These types of securities may be considered unfunded and may obligate the Funds to make future cash payments. An unfunded commitment is marked-to-market and any unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is separately presented in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and Statements of Operations.
Municipal Bonds Transferred to TOB Trusts: The Funds leverage their assets through the use of “TOB Trust” transactions. The funds transfer municipal bonds into a special purpose trust (a “TOB Trust”). A TOB Trust issues two classes of beneficial interests: short-term floating rate interests (“TOB Trust Certificates”), which are sold to third-party investors, and residual inverse floating rate interests (“TOB Residuals”), which are issued to the participating funds that contributed the municipal bonds to the TOB Trust. The TOB Trust Certificates have interest rates that reset weekly and their holders have the option to tender such certificates to the TOB Trust for redemption at par and any accrued interest at each reset date. The TOB Residuals held by a fund provide the fund with the right to cause the holders of a proportional share of the TOB Trust Certificates to tender their certificates to the TOB Trust at par plus accrued interest. The funds may withdraw a corresponding share of the municipal bonds from the TOB Trust. Other funds managed by the investment adviser may also contribute municipal bonds to a TOB Trust into which a fund has contributed bonds. If multiple BlackRock-advised funds participate in the same TOB Trust, the economic rights and obligations under the TOB Residuals will be shared among the funds ratably in proportion to their participation in the TOB Trust.
TOB Trusts are supported by a liquidity facility provided by a third-party bank or other financial institution (the “Liquidity Provider”) that allows the holders of the TOB Trust Certificates to tender their certificates in exchange for payment of par plus accrued interest on any business day. The tendered TOB Trust Certificates are remarketed by a Remarketing Agent. In the event of a failed remarketing, the TOB Trust may draw upon a loan from the Liquidity Provider to purchase the tendered TOB Trust Certificates. Any loans made by the Liquidity Provider will be secured by the purchased TOB Trust Certificates held by the TOB Trust and will be subject to an increased interest rate based on number of days the loan is outstanding.
The TOB Trust may be collapsed without the consent of a fund, upon the occurrence of a termination event as defined in the TOB Trust agreement. Upon the occurrence of a termination event, a TOB Trust would be liquidated with the proceeds applied first to any accrued fees owed to the trustee of the TOB Trust, the Remarketing Agent and the Liquidity Provider. Upon certain termination events, TOB Trust Certificates holders will be paid before the TOB Residuals holders (i.e., the Funds) whereas in other termination events, TOB Trust Certificates holders and TOB Residuals holders will be paid pro rata.
While a fund’s investment policies and restrictions expressly permit investments in inverse floating rate securities, such as TOB Residuals, they restrict the ability of a fund to borrow money for purposes of making investments. MVF ’ s, MVT’s and MQT’s management believes that a fund’s restrictions on borrowings do not apply to the Funds’ TOB Trust transactions.Each Fund’s transfer of the municipal bonds to a TOB Trust is considered a secured borrowing for financial reporting purposes. The cash received by the TOB Trust from the sale of the TOB Trust Certificates, less certain transaction expenses, is paid to a Fund. A Fund typically invests the cash received in additional municipal bonds.
Accounting for TOB Trusts: The municipal bonds deposited into a TOB Trust are presented in a Fund’s Schedule of Investments and the TOB Trust Certificates are shown in Other Liabilities in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Any loans drawn by the TOB Trust pursuant to the liquidity facility to purchase tendered TOB Trust Certificates are shown as Loan for TOB Trust Certificates. The carrying amount of a Fund’s payable to the holder of the TOB Trust Certificates, as reported in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as TOB Trust Certificates, approximates its fair value.
Interest income, including amortization and accretion of premiums and discounts, from the underlying municipal bonds is recorded by a Fund on an accrual basis. Interest expense incurred on the TOB Trust transaction and other expenses related to remarketing, administration, trustee, liquidity and other services to a TOB Trust are shown as interest expense, fees and amortization of offering costs in the Statements of Operations. Fees paid upon creation of the TOB Trust are recorded as debt issuance costs and are amortized to interest expense, fees and amortization of offering costs in the Statements of Operations to the expected maturity of the TOB Trust. In connection with the restructurings of the TOB Trusts to non-bank sponsored TOB Trusts, a Fund incurred non-recurring, legal and restructuring fees, which are recorded as interest expense, fees
98

and amortization of offering costs in the Statements of Operations. Amounts recorded within interest expense, fees and amortization of offering costs in the Statements of Operations are:

For the six months ended January 31, 2025, the following table is a summary of each Fund ’ s TOB Trusts:
| Fund Name | Underlying Municipal Bonds Transferred to TOB Trusts (a) | Liability for TOB Trust Certificates (b) | Range of Interest Rates on TOB Trust Certificates at Period End | Average TOB Trust Certificates Outstanding | Daily Weighted Average Rate of Interest and Other Expenses on TOB Trusts |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| BKN | $ 103,777,136 | $ 60,907,612 | 2.25 % — 2.55 % | $ 50,527,986 | 3.63 % |
| BFK | 311,632,916 | 149,489,981 | 2.25 — 2.35 | 119,831,097 | 3.61 |
| BLE | 242,103,970 | 131,994,702 | 2.27 — 2.55 | 114,188,724 | 3.59 |
| MHD | 309,988,408 | 186,687,991 | 2.25 — 2.55 | 154,014,543 | 3.63 |

| (a) | The municipal bonds transferred to a TOB Trust are generally high grade municipal bonds. In certain cases, when municipal bonds transferred are lower grade municipal bonds, the TOB Trust transaction may include a credit enhancement feature that provides for the timely payment of principal and interest on the bonds to the TOB Trust by a credit enhancement provider in the event of default of the municipal bond. The TOB Trust would be responsible for the payment of the credit enhancement fee and the Funds, as TOB Residuals holders, would be responsible for reimbursement of any payments of principal and interest made by the credit enhancement provider. The maximum potential amounts owed by the Funds, for such reimbursements, as applicable, are included in the maximum potential amounts disclosed for recourse TOB Trusts in the Schedules of Investments. |
|---|---|
| (b) | TOB Trusts may be structured on a non-recourse or recourse basis. When a Fund invests in TOB Trusts on a non-recourse basis, the Liquidity Provider may be required to make a payment under the liquidity facility to allow the TOB Trust to repurchase TOB Trust Certificates. The Liquidity Provider will be reimbursed from the liquidation of bonds held in the TOB Trust. If a Fund invests in a TOB Trust on a recourse basis, a Fund enters into a reimbursement agreement with the Liquidity Provider where a Fund is required to reimburse the Liquidity Provider for any shortfall between the amount paid by the Liquidity Provider and proceeds received from liquidation of municipal bonds held in the TOB Trust (the “Liquidation Shortfall”). As a result, if a Fund invests in a recourse TOB Trust, a Fund will bear the risk of loss with respect to any Liquidation Shortfall. If multiple funds participate in any such TOB Trust, these losses will be shared ratably, including the maximum potential amounts owed by a Fund at January 31, 2025, in proportion to their participation in the TOB Trust. The recourse TOB Trusts are identified in the Schedules of Investments including the maximum potential amounts owed by a Fund at January 31, 2025. |
5.
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Funds engage in various portfolio investment strategies using derivative contracts both to increase the returns of the Funds and/or to manage their exposure to certain risks such as credit risk, equity risk, interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange rate risk, commodity price risk or other risks (e.g., inflation risk). Derivative financial instruments categorized by risk exposure are included in the Schedules of Investments. These contracts may be transacted on an exchange or over-the-counter (“OTC”).
Futures Contracts: Futures contracts are purchased or sold to gain exposure to, or manage exposure to, changes in interest rates (interest rate risk) and changes in the value of equity securities (equity risk) or foreign currencies (foreign currency exchange rate risk).
Futures contracts are exchange-traded agreements between the Funds and a counterparty to buy or sell a specific quantity of an underlying instrument at a specified price and on a specified date. Depending on the terms of a contract, it is settled either through physical delivery of the underlying instrument on the settlement date or by payment of a cash amount on the settlement date. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Funds are required to deposit initial margin with the broker in the form of cash or securities in an amount that varies depending on a contract’s size and risk profile. The initial margin deposit must then be maintained at an established level over the life of the contract. Amounts pledged, which are considered restricted, are included in cash pledged for futures contracts in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Securities deposited as initial margin are designated in the Schedules of Investments and cash deposited, if any, are shown as cash pledged for futures contracts in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Pursuant to the contract, the Funds agree to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in market value of the contract (“variation margin”). Variation margin is recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and, if any, shown as variation margin receivable (or payable) on futures contracts in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. When the contract is closed, a realized gain or loss is recorded in the Statements of Operations equal to the difference between the notional amount of the contract at the time it was opened and the notional amount at the time it was closed. The use of futures contracts involves the risk of an imperfect correlation in the movements in the price of futures contracts and interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates or underlying assets.

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Investment Advisory: Each Fund entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with the Manager, the Funds ’ investment adviser and an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of BlackRock, Inc. (“BlackRock”), to provide investment advisory and administrative services. The Manager is responsible for the management of each Fund ’ s portfolio and provides the personnel, facilities, equipment and certain other services necessary to the operations of each Fund.

For such services, BKN, BFK and BLE , pays the Manager a monthly fee at an annual rate equal to the following percentages of the average weekly value of each Fund ’ s managed assets:
| BKN | BFK | BLE | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Investment advisory fees | 0.35 % | 0.60 % | 0.55 % |
For such services, MHD, MVF, MVT and MQT pays the Manager a monthly fee at an annual rate equal to the following percentages of the average daily value of each Fund’s net assets:
| MHD | MVF | MVT | MQT | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Investment advisory fees | 0.55 % | 0.50 % | 0.50 % | 0.50 % |
For purposes of calculating these fees, “managed assets” are determined as total assets of the Fund (including any assets attributable to money borrowed for investment purposes) less the sum of its accrued liabilities (other than money borrowed for investment purposes).
For purposes of calculating this fee, “net assets” mean the total assets of the Fund minus the sum of its accrued liabilities (which does not include liabilities represented by TOB Trusts and the liquidation preference of any outstanding preferred shares). It is understood that the liquidation preference of any outstanding preferred stock (other than accumulated dividends) and TOB Trusts is not considered a liability in determining a Fund’s NAV.
Distribution Fees: BKN, BFK and BLE have entered into a Distribution Agreement with BlackRock Investments, LLC (“BRIL”), an affiliate of the Manager, to provide for distribution of BKN, BFK and BLE common shares on a reasonable best efforts basis through an equity shelf offering (a “Shelf Offering”) (the “Distribution Agreement”). Pursuant to the Distribution Agreement, BRIL will receive commissions with respect to sales of common shares at a commission rate of 1.00% of the gross proceeds of the sale of BKN’s, BFK ’ s and BLE’s common shares and a portion of such commission is re-allowed to broker-dealers engaged by BRIL. The commissions retained by BRIL during the six months ended January 31, 2025 amounted to $0, $0 and $0, respectively.
Administration: BKN has an Administration Agreement with the Manager. The administration fee paid monthly to the Manager is computed at an annual rate of 0.15% of the Fund’s average weekly managed assets. For BKN, the Manager may reduce or discontinue this arrangement at any time without notice.
Expense Waivers and Reimbursements: With respect to each Fund, the Manager contractually agreed to waive its investment advisory fees by the amount of investment advisory fees each Fund pays to the Manager indirectly through its investment in affiliated money market funds (the “affiliated money market fund waiver”) through June 30, 2026. The contractual agreement may be terminated upon 90 days’ notice by a majority of the Independent Directors, or by a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of a Fund. These amounts are included in fees waived and/or reimbursed by the Manager in the Statements of Operations. For the six months ended January 31, 2025, the amounts waived were as follows:
| Fund Name | Fees Waived and/or Reimbursed by the Manager |
|---|---|
| BKN | $ 1,912 |
| BFK | 2,504 |
| BLE | 1,981 |
| MHD | 4,411 |
| MVF | 4,897 |
| MVT | 2,732 |
| MQT | 1,485 |
The Manager has contractually agreed to waive its investment advisory fee with respect to any portion of each Fund ’ s assets invested in affiliated equity and fixed-income mutual funds and affiliated exchange-traded funds that have a contractual management fee through June 30, 2026. The contractual agreement may be terminated upon 90 days’ notice by a majority of the Funds ’ Independent Directors, or by a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund. For the six months ended January 31, 2025, there were no fees waived by the Manager pursuant to this arrangement.
With respect to each Fund, the Manager voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of its investment advisory fee attributable to each Fund’s outstanding preferred shares for each month in which the monthly dividend on the Fund’s preferred shares exceeds the calculated value of the Fund’s gross monthly income attributable to investments from the proceeds of the preferred shares (determined by multiplying the Fund’s gross monthly income by the ratio of (i) the liquidation preference of any outstanding preferred shares to (ii) total assets of the Fund minus the sum of its accrued liabilities (which does not include liabilities represented by TOB Trusts and the liquidation preference of any outstanding preferred shares). This voluntary waiver may be reduced or discontinued at any time without notice. These amounts are included in fees waived and/or reimbursed by the Manager in the Statements of Operations. For the six months ended January 31, 2025, the amounts waived were as follows:
| Fund Name | Fees Waived and/or Reimbursed by the Manager |
|---|---|
| BKN | $ 120,843 |
| BFK | 315,100 |
| BLE | 375,813 |

INCOME TAX INFORMATION
It is each Fund ’ s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no U.S. federal 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 each Fund ’ s U.S. federal tax returns generally remains open for a period of three years after they are filed. The statutes of limitations on each Fund ’ s state and local tax returns may remain open for an additional year depending upon the jurisdiction.
Management has analyzed tax laws and regulations and their application to the Funds as of January 31, 2025, inclusive of the open tax return years, and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability in the Funds ’ financial statements. Management’s analysis is based on the tax laws and judicial and administrative interpretations thereof in effect as of the date of these financial statements, all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect which may impact the Funds ’ NAV.
As of July 31, 2024, the Funds had non-expiring capital loss carryforwards available to offset future realized capital gains as follows:
| Fund Name | Non-Expiring Capital Loss Carryforwards |
|---|---|
| BKN | $ (28,159,225 ) |
| BFK | (98,828,240 ) |
| BLE | (89,909,503 ) |
| MHD | (115,258,170 ) |
| MVF | (65,431,026 ) |
| MVT | (34,985,448 ) |
| MQT | (32,128,148 ) |
As of January 31, 2025, gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation based on cost of investments (including short positions and derivatives, if any) for U.S. federal income tax purposes were as follows:
| Fund Name | Tax Cost | Gross Unrealized Appreciation | Gross Unrealized Depreciation | Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BKN | $ 272,171,694 | $ 15,772,400 | $ (2,840,174 ) | $ 12,932,226 |

PRINCIPAL RISKS
In the normal course of business, the Funds invest in securities or other instruments and may enter into certain transactions, and such activities subject each Fund to various risks, including among others, fluctuations in the market (market risk) or failure of an issuer to meet all of its obligations. The value of securities or other instruments may also be affected by various factors, including, without limitation: (i) the general economy; (ii) the overall market as well as local, regional or global political and/or social instability;
Notes to Financial Statements
101
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
(iii) regulation, taxation or international tax treaties between various countries; or (iv) currency, interest rate and price fluctuations. Local, regional or global events such as war, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, recessions, or other events could have a significant impact on the Funds and their investments.
The Funds may hold a significant amount of bonds subject to calls by the issuers at defined dates and prices. When bonds are called by issuers and the Funds reinvest the proceeds received, such investments may be in securities with lower yields than the bonds originally held, and correspondingly, could adversely impact the yield and total return performance of a Fund.
A Fund structures and “sponsors” the TOB Trusts in which it holds TOB Residuals and has certain duties and responsibilities, which may give rise to certain additional risks including, but not limited to, compliance, securities law and operational risks.
As short-term interest rates rise, the Funds ’ investments in the TOB Trusts may adversely affect the Funds ’ net investment income and dividends to Common Shareholders. Also, fluctuations in the market value of municipal bonds deposited into the TOB Trust may adversely affect the Funds ’ NAVs per share.
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and various federal banking and housing agencies have adopted credit risk retention rules for securitizations (the “Risk Retention Rules”). The Risk Retention Rules would require the sponsor of a TOB Trust to retain at least 5% of the credit risk of the underlying assets supporting the TOB Trust’s municipal bonds. The Risk Retention Rules may adversely affect the Funds ’ ability to engage in TOB Trust transactions or increase the costs of such transactions in certain circumstances.
TOB Trusts constitute an important component of the municipal bond market. Any modifications or changes to rules governing TOB Trusts may adversely impact the municipal market and the Funds, including through reduced demand for and liquidity of municipal bonds and increased financing costs for municipal issuers. The ultimate impact of any potential modifications on the TOB Trust market and the overall municipal market is not yet certain.
Illiquidity Risk: Each Fund may invest without limitation in illiquid or less liquid investments or investments in which no secondary market is readily available or which are otherwise illiquid, including private placement securities. A Fund may not be able to readily dispose of such investments at prices that approximate those at which a Fund could sell such investments if they were more widely traded and, as a result of such illiquidity, a Fund may have to sell other investments or engage in borrowing transactions if necessary to raise funds to meet its obligations. Limited liquidity can also affect the market price of investments, thereby adversely affecting a Fund’s NAV and ability to make dividend distributions. Privately issued debt securities are often of below investment grade quality, frequently are unrated and present many of the same risks as investing in below investment grade public debt securities.
Market Risk: Each Fund may be exposed to prepayment risk, which is the risk that borrowers may exercise their option to prepay principal earlier than scheduled during periods of declining interest rates, which would force each Fund to reinvest in lower yielding securities. Each Fund may also be exposed to reinvestment risk, which is the risk that income from each Fund’s portfolio will decline if each Fund invests the proceeds from matured, traded or called fixed-income securities at market interest rates that are below each Fund portfolio’s current earnings rate.
Municipal securities are subject to the risk that litigation, legislation or other political events, local business or economic conditions, credit rating downgrades, or the bankruptcy of the issuer could have a significant effect on an issuer’s ability to make payments of principal and/or interest or otherwise affect the value of such securities. Municipal securities can be significantly affected by political or economic changes, including changes made in the law after issuance of the securities, as well as uncertainties in the municipal market related to, taxation, legislative changes or the rights of municipal security holders, including in connection with an issuer insolvency. Municipal securities backed by current or anticipated revenues from a specific project or specific assets can be negatively affected by the discontinuance of the tax benefits supporting the project or assets or the inability to collect revenues for the project or from the assets. Municipal securities may be less liquid than taxable bonds, and there may be less publicly available information on the financial condition of municipal security issuers than for issuers of other securities.
Counterparty Credit Risk: The Funds may be exposed to counterparty credit risk, or the risk that an entity may fail to or be unable to perform on its commitments related to unsettled or open transactions, including making timely interest and/or principal payments or otherwise honoring its obligations. The Funds manage counterparty credit risk by entering into transactions only with counterparties that the Manager believes have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties. Financial assets, which potentially expose the Funds to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks, consist principally of financial instruments and receivables due from counterparties. The extent of the Funds ’ exposure to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks with respect to these financial assets is approximately their value recorded in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, less any collateral held by the Funds.
A derivative contract may suffer a mark-to-market loss if the value of the contract decreases due to an unfavorable change in the market rates or values of the underlying instrument. Losses can also occur if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.
With exchange-traded futures, there is less counterparty credit risk to the Funds since the exchange or clearinghouse, as counterparty to such instruments, guarantees against a possible default. The clearinghouse stands between the buyer and the seller of the contract; therefore, credit risk is limited to failure of the clearinghouse. While offset rights may exist under applicable law, a Fund does not have a contractual right of offset against a clearing broker or clearinghouse in the event of a default (including the bankruptcy or insolvency). Additionally, credit risk exists in exchange-traded futures with respect to initial and variation margin that is held in a clearing broker’s customer accounts. While clearing brokers are required to segregate customer margin from their own assets, in the event that a clearing broker becomes insolvent or goes into bankruptcy and at that time there is a shortfall in the aggregate amount of margin held by the clearing broker for all its clients, typically the shortfall would be allocated on a pro rata basis across all the clearing broker’s customers, potentially resulting in losses to the Funds.
Geographic/Asset Class Risk: A diversified portfolio, where this is appropriate and consistent with a fund’s objectives, minimizes the risk that a price change of a particular investment will have a material impact on the NAV of a fund. The investment concentrations within each Fund’s portfolio are disclo s ed in its Schedule of Investments.
102
2025 BlackRock Semi-Annual Report to Shareholders
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
The Funds invest a significant portion of their assets in securities within a single or limited number of market sectors. When a fund concentrates its investments in this manner, it assumes the risk that economic, regulatory, political and social conditions affecting such sectors may have a significant impact on the Fund and could affect the income from, or the value or liquidity of, the Fund’s portfolio. Investment percentages in specific sectors are presented in the Schedules of Investments.
The Funds invest a significant portion of their assets in fixed-income securities and/or use derivatives tied to the fixed-income markets. Changes in market interest rates or economic conditions may affect the value and/or liquidity of such investments. Interest rate risk is the risk that prices of bonds and other fixed-income securities will decrease as interest rates rise and increase as interest rates fall. The Funds may be subject to a greater risk of rising interest rates during a period of historically low interest rates. Changing interest rates may have unpredictable effects on markets, may result in heightened market volatility, and could negatively impact the Funds ’ performance.
The Funds invest a significant portion of their assets in securities of issuers located in the United States. A decrease in imports or exports, changes in trade regulations, inflation and/or an economic recession in the United States may have a material adverse effect on the U.S. economy and the securities listed on U.S. exchanges. Proposed and adopted policy and legislative changes in the United States may also have a significant effect on U.S. markets generally, as well as on the value of certain securities. Governmental agencies project that the United States will continue to maintain elevated public debt levels for the foreseeable future which may constrain future economic growth. Circumstances could arise that could prevent the timely payment of interest or principal on U.S. government debt, such as reaching the legislative “debt ceiling.” Such non-payment would result in substantial negative consequences for the U.S. economy and the global financial system. If U.S. relations with certain countries deteriorate, it could adversely affect issuers that rely on the United States for trade. The United States has also experienced increased internal unrest and discord. If these trends were to continue, they may have an adverse impact on the U.S. economy and the issuers in which the Funds invest.

Common Shares
For the six months ended January 31, 2025, shares issued and outstanding remained constant for BKN, BFK, BLE, MHD, MVT and MQT.
The Funds participated in an open market share repurchase program (the “Repurchase Program”) through November 30, 2024. From December 1, 2023 through November 30, 2024, each Fund could repurchase up to 5% of its outstanding common shares under the Repurchase Program, based on common shares outstanding as of the close of business on November 30, 2023, subject to certain conditions. The Repurchase Program had an accretive effect as shares were purchased at a discount to the Fund’s NAV. The Repurchase Program expired on November 30, 2024 and was not renewed. For the period ended November 30, 2024, the Funds did not repurchase any shares.
The total cost of the shares repurchased is reflected in each Fund ’ s Statements of Changes in Net Assets. For the periods shown, shares repurchased and cost, including transaction costs, were as follows:

BKN, BFK and BLE have filed a prospectus with the SEC allowing it to issue an additional 5,000,000, 10,000,000 and 15,000,000 Common Shares, respectively, through an equity Shelf Offering. Effective November 17, 2024, BLE is no longer actively engaged in a Shelf Offering and has no effective registration statement or current prospectus for the sale of Common Shares. Under the Shelf Offering, BKN and BFK, subject to market conditions, may raise additional equity capital from time to time in varying amounts and utilizing various offering methods at a net price at or above each Fund’s NAV per Common Share (calculated within 48 hours of pricing). As of period end, 4,634,875 and 9,998,351 Common Shares, respectively, remain available for issuance under the Shelf Offering. For the six months ended January 31, 2025, Common Shares issued and outstanding under the Shelf Offering remained constant. See Additional Information - Shelf Offering Program for additional information.
Initial costs incurred by BKN and BFK in connection with their Shelf Offerings are recorded as “Deferred offering costs” in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. As shares are sold, a portion of the costs attributable to the shares sold will be charged against paid-in-capital. Any remaining deferred charges at the end of the Shelf Offering period will be charged to expense.
MVF adopted a discount management program (the “Program”) that is comprised of six 3-month measurement periods, expiring with the measurement period ending September 30, 2025, unless continued by the Board. Under the Program, the Fund intends to offer to repurchase a portion of its common shares via tender offer if the Fund’s common shares trade at an average daily discount to NAV of more than 7.5% during a 3-month measurement period. The Board approved the Fund offering to repurchase 2.5% of its outstanding common shares for the first measurement period, which began on April 1, 2024 and ended on June 30, 2024, the second measurement period, which began on July 1, 2024 and ended on September 30, 2024, and the third measurement period, which began on October 1, 2024 and ended on December 31, 2024 as the discount trigger was met. The results of the fourth through sixth measurement periods, and any action approved by the Board as a result, will be announced promptly after the end of each applicable measurement period. There is no guarantee that shareholders will be able to sell all of the shares that they desire to sell in any particular tender offer that is executed and there can be no assurance as to the effect that the Program will have on the market for the Fund’s shares or the discount at which the Fund’s shares may trade relative to its NAV.
As a result of the discount trigger being met during the first, second and third measurement periods, the Fund conducted a tender offer for 2.5% of its outstanding common shares, at a price equal to 98% of the NAV per share, determined on the business day after the tender offer expired.
The results of the tender offers were as follows:
| Commencement Date of Tender Offer Period (a) | Valuation Date | Number of Shares Tendered | Tendered Shares as a Percentage of Outstanding Shares | Number of Tendered Shares Purchased | Tendered Shares Purchased as a Percentage of Outstanding Shares | Purchase Price | Total Amount of Purchases |

Preferred Shares
A Fund ’ s Preferred Shares rank prior to its Common Shares as to the payment of dividends by the Fund and distribution of assets upon dissolution or liquidation of the Fund. The 1940 Act prohibits the declaration of any dividend on Common Shares or the repurchase of Common Shares if the Fund fails to maintain asset coverage of at least 200% of the liquidation preference of the Fund ’ s outstanding Preferred Shares. In addition, pursuant to the Preferred Shares ’ governing instruments, a Fund is restricted from declaring and paying dividends on classes of shares ranking junior to or on parity with its Preferred Shares or repurchasing such shares if the Fund fails to declare and pay dividends on the Preferred Shares, redeem any Preferred Shares required to be redeemed under the Preferred Shares’ governing instruments or comply with the basic maintenance amount requirement of the ratings agencies rating the Preferred Shares.
Holders of Preferred Shares have voting rights equal to the voting rights of holders of Common Shares (one vote per share) and vote together with holders of Common Shares (one vote per share) as a single class on certain matters. Holders of Preferred Shares, voting as a separate class, are also entitled to (i) elect two members of the Board, (ii) elect the full Board if dividends on the Preferred Shares are not paid for a period of two years and (iii) a separate class vote to amend the Preferred Share governing documents. In addition, the 1940 Act requires the approval of the holders of a majority of any outstanding Preferre d Shar e s, voting as a separate class, to (a) adopt any plan

of reorganization that would adversely affect the Preferred Shares, (b) change a Fund ’ s sub-classification as a closed-end investment company or change its fundamental investment restrictions or (c) change its business so as to cease to be an investment company.
VMTP Shares
Each Fund (for purposes of this section, each a “VMTP Fund”) has issued Series W-7 VMTP Shares, $100,000 liquidation preference per share, in one or more privately negotiated offerings to qualified institutional buyers as defined pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The VMTP Shares are subject to certain restrictions on transfer, and a VMTP Fund may also be required to register its VMTP Shares for sale under the Securities Act under certain circumstances. As of period end, the VMTP Shares outstanding and assigned long-term ratings were as follows:
| Fund Name | Issue Date | Shares Issued | Aggregate Principal | Term Redemption Date | Moody ’ s Rating | Fitch Rating |

Redemption Terms: A VMTP Fund is required to redeem its VMTP Shares on the term redemption date, unless earlier redeemed or repurchased or unless extended. There is no assurance that a term will be extended further or that any VMTP Shares will be replaced with any other preferred shares or other form of leverage upon the redemption or repurchase of the VMTP Shares. Six months prior to the term redemption date, a VMTP Fund is required to begin to segregate liquid assets with its custodian to fund the redemption. In addition, a VMTP Fund is required to redeem certain of its outstanding VMTP Shares if it fails to comply with certain asset coverage, basic maintenance amount or leverage requirements.
Subject to certain conditions, VMTP Shares may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at any time at the option of the VMTP Fund. With respect to each Fund, the redemption price per VMTP Share is equal to the liquidation preference per share plus any outstanding unpaid dividends and applicable redemption premium. If each Fund redeems the VMTP Shares prior to the term redemption date and the VMTP Shares have long-term ratings above A1/A+ or its equivalent by the ratings agencies then rating the VMTP Shares, then such redemption may be subject to a prescribed redemption premium (up to 1% of the liquidation preference) payable to the holder of the VMTP Shares based on the time remaining until the term redemption date, subject to certain exceptions for redemptions that are required to comply with minimum asset coverage requirements.
Dividends: Dividends on the VMTP Shares are declared daily and payable monthly at a variable rate set weekly at a fixed rate spread plus the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (“SIFMA”) Municipal Swap Index or a percentage of the daily Secured Overnight Financing Rate, as set forth in the VMTP Shares governing instrument. The fixed spread is determined based on the long-term preferred share rating assigned to the VMTP Shares by the ratings agencies then rating the VMTP Shares.
The dividend rate on VMTP Shares is subject to a step-up spread if the VMTP Fund fails to co mply with certain provisions, including, among other things, the timely payment of dividends, redemptions or gross-up payments, and complying with certain asset coverage and leverage requirements.
For the six months ended January 31, 2025, the average annualized dividend rates for the VMTP Shares were as follows:
| BKN | BFK | BLE | MHD | MVF | MVT | MQT | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dividend rates | 4.44 % | 4.44 % | 4.44 % | 4.44 % | 4.44 % | 4.44 % | 4.44 % |
For the six months ended January 31, 2025, VMTP Shares issued and outstanding of each VMTP Fund remained constant.
Offering Costs: The Funds incurred costs in connection with the issuance of VMTP Shares, which were recorded as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the related debt liability and will be amortized over the life of the VMTP Shares. Amortization of these costs is included in interest expense, fees and amortization of offering costs in the Statements of Operations.
Financial Reporting: The VMTP Shares are considered debt of the issuer; therefore, the liquidation preference, which approximates fair value of the VMTP Shares, is recorded as a liability in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities net of deferred offering costs. Unpaid dividends are included in interest expense and fees payable in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, and the dividends accrued and paid on the VMTP Shares are included as a component of interest expense, fees and amortization of offering costs in the Statements of Operations. The VMTP Shares are treated as equity for tax purposes. Dividends paid to holders of the VMTP Shares are generally classified as tax-exempt income for tax-reporting purposes. Dividends and amortization of deferred offering costs on VMTP Shares are included in interest expense, fees and amortization of offering costs in the Statements of Operations:
| Fund Name | Dividends | Deferred Offering Costs Amortization |

2025 BlackRock Semi-Annual Report to Shareholders
Additional Information
Fund Certification
The Funds are listed for trading on the NYSE and have filed with the NYSE their annual chief executive officer certification regarding compliance with the NYSE’s listing standards. The Funds filed with the SEC the certification of its chief executive officer and chief financial officer required by Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) Integration
Although the Funds do not seek to implement a specific sustainability objective, strategy or process unless otherwise disclosed, Fund management will consider ESG factors as part of the investment process for the Funds. Fund management views ESG integration as the practice of incorporating financially material ESG data or information into investment processes with the objective of enhancing risk-adjusted returns. These ESG considerations will vary depending on the Funds ’ particular investment strategies and may include consideration of third-party research as well as consideration of proprietary BlackRock research across the ESG risks and opportunities regarding an issuer. The ESG characteristics utilized in the Funds ’ investment process are anticipated to evolve over time and one or more characteristics may not be relevant with respect to all issuers that are eligible for investment. Certain of these considerations may affect the Funds ’ exposure to certain companies or industries. While Fund management views ESG considerations as having the potential to contribute to the Funds ’ long-term performance, there is no guarantee that such results will be achieved.
Dividend Policy
Each Fund ’ s dividend policy is to make regular monthly cash distributions to holders of its common shares (stated in terms of a fixed cents per common share dividend distribution rate). Each Fund intends to distribute all or a portion of its net investment income to its shareholders on a monthly basis. In addition, in any monthly period, in order to maintain its declared distribution amount, each Fund may pay out more or less than the entire amount of net investment income earned in any particular month. In the event a Fund distributes more than its net investment income during any yearly period, such distributions may also come from sources other than net income, including return of capital. The Funds’ current accumulated but undistributed net investment income, if any, is disclosed as accumulated earnings (loss) in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, which comprises part of the financial information included in this report.
General Information
The Funds, other than BKN, do not make available copies of their Statements of Additional Information because the Funds’ shares are not continuously offered, which means that the Statement of Additional Information of each Fund has not been updated after completion of the respective Fund’s offerings and the information contained in each Fund’s Statement of Additional Information may have become outdated.
BKN ’ s Statement of Additional Information includes additional information about the Board and is available, without charge upon request by calling (800) 882-0052.
The following information is a summary of certain changes since July 31, 2024. This information may not reflect all of the changes that have occurred since you purchased the relevant Fund.
Except if noted otherwise herein, there were no changes to the Funds’ charters or by-laws that would delay or prevent a change of control of the Funds that were not approved by the shareholders.
In accordance with Section 23(c) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, each Fund may from time to time purchase shares of its common stock in the open market or in private transactions.
Quarterly performance, shareholder reports, current net asset value and other information regarding the Funds may be found on BlackRock’s website, which can be accessed at blackrock.com . Any reference to BlackRock’s website in this report is intended to allow investors public access to information regarding the Funds and does not, and is not intended to, incorporate BlackRock’s website in this report.

Shareholders Who Hold Accounts with Investment Advisers, Banks or Brokerages:

Householding
The Funds will mail only one copy of shareholder documents, including for BKN only, prospectus, annual and semi-annual reports, Rule 30e-3 notices and proxy statements, to shareholders with multiple accounts at the same address. This practice is commonly called “householding” and is intended to reduce expenses and eliminate duplicate mailings of shareholder documents. Mailings of your shareholder documents may be householded indefinitely unless you instruct us otherwise. If you do not want the mailing of these documents to be combined with those for other members of your household, please call the Funds at (800) 882-0052.

Additional Information (continued)
Availability of Quarterly Schedule of Investments

The Funds’ Forms N-PORT are available on the SEC’s website at sec.gov . Additionally, each Fund makes its portfolio holdings for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year available at blackrock.com/fundreports .
Availability of Proxy Voting Policies, Procedures and Voting Records
The Board of Trustees of the Funds has delegated the voting of proxies for the Funds ’ securities to BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Adviser”) pursuant to the Closed-End Fund Proxy Voting Policy. The Adviser has adopted the BlackRock Active Investment Stewardship - Global Engagement and Voting Guidelines (the “BAIS Guidelines”) with respect to certain funds, including the Funds. The BAIS Guidelines are available at www.blackrock.com .

This reference to BlackRock’s website is intended to allow investors public access to information regarding the Funds and does not, and is not intended to, incorporate BlackRock’s website in this report.
Shelf Offering Program
From time to time, BKN may seek to raise additional equity capital through a Shelf Offering. In a Shelf Offering, BKN may, subject to market conditions, raise additional equity capital by issuing new Common Shares from time to time in varying amounts at a net price at or above BKN ’ s net asset value (“NAV”) per Common Share (calculated within 48 hours of pricing). While any such Shelf Offering may allow BKN to pursue additional investment opportunities without the need to sell existing portfolio investments, it could also entail risks – including that the issuance of additional Common Shares may limit the extent to which the Common Shares are able to trade at a premium to NAV in the secondary market.
BKN filed a final prospectus with the SEC in connection with its Shelf Offering on June 6, 2022. This report and the prospectus of BKN, is not an offer to sell BKN Common Shares or solicitations of an offer to buy BKN Common Shares in any jurisdiction where such offers or sales are not permitted. The prospectus of BKN contains important information about BKN, including its investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses. Investors are urged to read the prospectus of BKN carefully and in its entirety before investing. Copies of the final prospectus for BKN can be obtained from BlackRock at blackrock.com .
