KINETICS MUTUAL FUNDS, INC.
Shareholders’ Letter
 
Dear Fellow Shareholders:
 
We are pleased to present the Kinetics Mutual Funds (“Funds”) Semi-Annual Report for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014. Equity markets have continued to advance during the first half of the year, albeit at a slower pace than in 2013. We believe that this advance is rooted in fundamentals for most companies; however, there are pockets of speculative excesses that have been enabled and encouraged by sustained low borrowing costs. Tempting as they may be, we strongly believe that stocks with speculative valuations should be avoided, as a small change in sentiment and/or earnings momentum can result in large, possibly permanent, losses. This strategy has resulted in modest underperformance for most of the Funds on a year-to-date basis, although we are confident that this is a temporary phenomenon. The Funds (No-Load Class) appreciated as follows during the first half of the year: The Paradigm Fund +4.66%, The Multi-Disciplinary Income Fund +4.90%, The Small Cap Opportunities Fund +3.81%, The Market Opportunities Fund +0.51%, The Internet Fund -2.38%, The Medical Fund +9.67%, The Alternative Income Fund +2.67%, and The Global Fund +2.81%. This compares to returns of +7.14% for the S&P 500 Index and +6.18% for the MSCI All Country World Index.
 
As a security’s valuation increases, so too does the risk of owning the security, because there is inherently a lower potential for upside, and additional future growth and profitability has already been reflected in the price. U.S. equity markets have risen considerably for over 5 years, resulting in increased risk for investors, but we believe that most equities still evidence significant, potential long-term upside, thereby justifying the investment risk. It is of the utmost importance for us to remain disciplined in assessing potential upside, compared to relative risk, as market prices now reflect varying degrees of positive developments for individual companies and economies alike. Our investment approach is based on our extended investment time horizon; thus, we are not overly concerned with short-term results, instead emphasizing potential cash flows and asset values over the next three to five years. This approach doesn’t fit precisely within either classic value or growth investing strategies, as we attempt to avoid making such classifications. Ideally, we are currently buying companies that are fairly valued based upon current asset values and cash flows, yet have “free” exposure to future growth potential. Frequently, such companies do not yet have visible drivers for revenue or earnings expansion, and thus are not closely followed by growth investors, and therefore have not been driven up in price. In short, we believe many of the “obvious” bargains in

the equity markets are no longer available at attractive prices. However, fortunes have been made buying excellent companies at fair prices—this is the current emphasis of our investment strategy.
 
Our equity investment process aims to identify underpriced securities primarily by extending our time horizon and identifying securities that are prone to mispricing using prevailing investment approaches. Similarly, we believe that we can exploit this strategy in certain Funds through the options market, which is also prone to mispricing. Options are primarily priced based upon implied volatility, which in turn is based on the standard deviation of the returns of the underlying equity. Note that we wrote “based on” the experienced volatility of the underlying equity, not “directly driven by”, as options are based upon implied volatility. Implied volatility tends to be higher than experienced volatility, which is directly attributable to the fact that investors are willing to pay a premium for protection from experienced volatility. This dynamic enables us to utilize a put-writing strategy in two of the Funds1 that effectively earns the aforementioned premiums in exchange for assuming the price volatility of the equity. We are able to do so with confidence because we have done extensive valuation work on most of the companies’ underlying the put options, and believe them to be attractively priced. The strategy, which can be made more conservative by writing out-of-the-money puts, or more aggressive by writing at-the-money puts, generally results in an attractive cash flow stream. The strategy has historically outperformed equity indexes in down markets, while trailing in sharply rising markets, and has the potential to significantly outperform in range bound markets. These strategies offer a compelling complement to an investor’s equity allocation, due to the varying performance drivers.
 
Shareholders can continue to access additional information from our website, www.kineticsfunds.com. This website provides a broad array of information, including recent portfolio holdings, quarterly investment commentaries, conference call transcripts, newsflashes, recent performance data, and online access to account information.
 
Kinetics offers the following funds to investors:
 
The Paradigm Fund focuses on companies that are valued attractively and currently have, or are expected to soon have, sustainable high business returns. The Fund has produced attractive returns since its inception in an environment that should be described as difficult for equity investors. The Paradigm Fund is Kinetics’ flagship fund.

This options strategy is used in The Multi-Disciplinary Income Fund and The Alternative Income Fund.
 
 
3

 
 
The Multi-Disciplinary Income Fund seeks to utilize stock options and fixed-income investments in order to provide investors with equity-like returns, but with more muted volatility. At times, the options strategies of the Fund may cause the manager to purchase equity securities.
 
The Small Cap Opportunities Fund focuses on undervalued and special situation small capitalization equities that have the potential for rewarding long-term investment results. The same investment fundamentals employed by The Paradigm Fund are used to identify such opportunities.
 
The Medical Fund is a sector fund, offering an investment in scientific discovery within the promising field of medical research, particularly in the development of cancer treatments and therapies. As a sector fund, The Medical Fund is likely to have heightened volatility.
 
The Internet Fund is a sector fund that focuses on companies engaged in the evolution of Internet-related developments. As such, this Fund has been, and is likely to continue to be, quite volatile. More recently, this Fund has been focusing on content companies, which we believe will be the winners in the next generation of Internet development.
 
The Global Fund focuses on selecting long life cycle international companies that can generate long-term wealth through their business operations. This Fund is presently finding exciting opportunities in the more developed markets.
 
The Market Opportunities Fund focuses on those companies that benefit from increasing transactional volume or throughput, such as publicly-traded exchanges and credit card processors, or companies that act as facilitators, such as gaming companies, airports and publicly-traded toll roads.
 
The Alternative Income Fund seeks to provide current income and gains, with a secondary objective of obtaining long-term growth of capital. The Fund utilizes stock options and fixed income investments in order to generate a total return with limited market value variability.

KINETICS MUTUAL FUNDS, INC.
Investment Commentary
 
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
 
One of the most difficult evaluations for professional investors, and ultimately their clients, is the notion of risk and reward. Academic attempts to quantify these figures are well-intentioned, yet noticeably lacking in results. The truth is that there is no valid quantifiable method to gauge risk and reward, because prices are set by human beings, and hence are subject to human behavior, which is hardly quantifiable. All that we can do is make an educated assessment of asset values and cash flows under varying scenarios, and then assess the likelihood of each scenario. Even if we are able to precisely predict these values, we must then subject them to critical discount rate and growth assumptions. It is prudent to use very conservative assumptions for both, which we do, and if the company still appears to offer value, we consider making an investment. The good news is that we are still able to identify many such companies, while the less-good news is that the overall market is approaching valuation levels that cannot be justified using our high discount rate/low growth rate assumptions. As markets trend higher yet, to almost fix the levels seen during the 2009 nadir1, we are continuously calculating which future variables are discounted in current prices. Again, assuming a high discount rate (which is consistent with our high hurdle rate of return), we believe there is a good likelihood for many companies to achieve these rates. However, for many other companies, their current valuations can only be justified when very ambitious assumptions are made in terms of discount rates, growth, and profitability. This reminds us of the infamous 2007 quote of former Citigroup CEO Chuck Prince: “But as long as the music is playing, you’ve got to get up and dance. We’re still dancing.” Investors in such companies continue to dance, seemingly ignoring what happens when the music stops and the valuations are ultimately reconciled with fundamentals.
 
Many people might believe that investors in the aforementioned companies that are trading at aggressive valuations are driven simply by greed. True, these companies may offer very large gains in a short period of time, yet this is frequently paired with the potential for rapid losses. Rather than disparage such investors for imprudence, one must consider the “institutional imperative” to continue dancing. This is the imperative to keep pace with your benchmark index every week, month, quarter, and year, as clients are not likely to tolerate

underperformance for very long. Few investment managers enjoy the long-term investment horizon that permits them to truly reduce risk in a meaningful manner during increasingly speculative markets. Of course we, too, are subject to this imperative to a certain degree, but we attempt to alleviate this perpetual pressure by communicating our long-term outlook to investors and remaining benchmark agnostic. The first factor sometimes seems futile, and of course we understand when our investors become impatient, but the latter factor truly allows us to avoid areas that we believe are excessively valued. For example, we have always maintained a very low exposure to pure technology companies for the simple reason that we have minimal visibility into the prospects for these companies beyond the current product cycle. Just consider the variety of once-mighty technology firms that are now facing obsolescence. An index-conscious investor may also appreciate this dynamic, but is still compelled to own these companies due to his or her desire to minimize index tracking error. It doesn’t make logical sense to do so, but these are the established parameters in mainstream investment management.
 
We do not mean to raise alarm with our shareholders, but to inform them that there are pockets of risky companies in the marketplace, and we expect to forego owning such companies. This may be a trying experience, as low rates and easy access to capital have the potential to drive these companies higher yet. In contrast, we continue to hold many of the companies that have led to our strong post-crisis performance, which we are still able to discount at appropriately high rates, and still justify the values. So long as we are able to do this, we expect to hold course in the Funds and maintain a very low turnover. For investors that may be even more risk averse (compared to our high hurdle discount rates), we urge these individuals to consider our option income strategies that can potentially achieve equity-like returns with lower realized volatility and greater downside protection. In our opinion, these strategies offer benefits when compared to conventional yield-oriented strategies such as traditional bonds, leveraged loans, real estate investment trusts, or master limited partnerships.

Disclosure
 
This material is intended to be reviewed in conjunction with a current prospectus, which includes all fees and expenses that apply to a continued investment, as well as information regarding the risk factors, policies and objectives of the Funds. Read it carefully before investing.
 
Mutual Fund investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible. Because The Internet Fund, The Medical Fund and The Market Opportunities Fund invest in a single industry or geographic region, their shares are subject to a higher degree of risk than funds with a higher level of diversification. Internet, biotechnology and certain capital markets or gaming stocks are subject to a rate of change in technology, obsolescence and competition that is generally higher than that of other industries, hence they may experience extreme price and volume fluctuations.
 
International investing [for all Funds] presents special risks including currency exchange fluctuation, government regulations, and the potential for political and economic instability. Accordingly, the share prices for these Funds are expected to be more volatile than that of U.S.-only funds. Past performance is no guarantee of future performance.
 
Because smaller companies [for The Small Cap Opportunities Fund] often have narrower markets and limited financial resources, they present more risk than larger, more well established, companies.
 
Non-investment grade debt securities [for all Funds], i.e., junk bonds, are subject to greater credit risk, price volatility and risk of loss than investment grade securities.
 
Further, options contain special risks including the imperfect correlation between the value of the option and the value of the underlying asset. Investments [for The Multi- Disciplinary Fund and The Alternative Income Fund] in futures, swaps and other derivative instruments may result in loss as derivative instruments may be illiquid, difficult to price and leveraged so that small changes may produce disproportionate losses to the Funds. To the extent the Funds segregate assets to cover derivative positions, they may impair their ability to meet current obligations, to honor requests for redemption and to manage the investments in a manner consistent with their

 
7

 
 
respective investment objectives. Purchasing and writing put and call options and, in particular, writing “uncovered” options are highly specialized activities that entail greater than ordinary investment risk.
 
As non-diversified Funds [except The Global Fund and The Multi-Disciplinary Fund] the value of Fund shares may fluctuate more than shares invested in a broader range of industries and companies. Unlike other investment companies that directly acquire and manage their own portfolios of securities, The Kinetics Mutual Funds pursue their investment objectives by investing all of their investable assets in a corresponding portfolio series of the Kinetics Portfolios Trust.
 
The information concerning the Funds included in the shareholder report contains certain forward-looking statements about the factors that may affect the performance of the Funds in the future. These statements are based on Fund management’s predictions and expectations concerning certain future events and their expected impact on the Funds, such as performance of the economy as a whole and of specific industry sectors, changes in the levels of interest rates, the impact of developing world events, and other factors that may influence the future performance of the Funds. Management believes these forward-looking statements to be reasonable, although they are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict. Actual events may cause adjustments in portfolio management strategies from those currently expected to be employed.

KINETICS MUTUAL FUNDS, INC. — THE FEEDER FUNDS
Expense Example
June 30, 2014 (Unaudited)
 
Shareholders incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, reinvestments of dividends or other distributions made by a Fund, redemption fees, and exchange fees, and (2), ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help investors understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a series of Kinetics Mutual Funds, Inc. (each a “Feeder Fund” and collectively the “Feeder Funds”), and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested on January 1, 2014 and held for the entire period from January 1, 2014 to June 30, 2014.
 
Actual Expenses
 
The first line and second line items of the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses before and after expense reimbursement. Unlike other mutual funds that directly acquire and manage their own portfolio securities, each Feeder Fund invests all or generally all of its investable assets in a corresponding series of The Kinetics Portfolios Trust (each, a “Master Portfolio”, and together the “Master Portfolios”), a separately registered investment company. The Master Portfolio, in turn, invests in securities. With this type of organization, expenses can accrue specifically to the Master Portfolio or the Feeder Fund or both. Each Feeder Fund records its proportionate share of the Master Portfolio’s expenses, including directed brokerage credits, on a daily basis. Any expense reductions include Fund-specific expenses as well as the expenses allocated from the Master Portfolio.
 
The Feeder Funds will charge shareholder fees for outgoing wire transfers, returned checks, and exchanges executed by telephone between a Feeder Fund and any other Feeder Fund. The Feeder Funds’ transfer agent charges a $5.00 transaction fee to shareholder accounts for telephone exchanges between any two Feeder Funds. The Feeder Funds’ transfer agent does not charge a transaction fee for written exchange requests. IRA accounts are assessed a $15.00 annual fee. Finally, as a disincentive to market-timing transactions, the Feeder Funds will assess a 2.00% fee on the redemption or exchange of Fund shares held for less than 30 days. These fees will be paid to the Feeder Funds to help offset transaction costs. The Feeder Funds reserve the right to waive the redemption fee, subject to their sole discretion, in instances deemed not to be disadvantageous to the Feeder Funds or shareholders as described in the Feeder Funds’ prospectus.

KINETICS MUTUAL FUNDS, INC. — THE FEEDER FUNDS
Expense Example — (Continued)
June 30, 2014 (Unaudited)
 
You may use the information provided in the first line, together with the amounts you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
 
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
 
The third and fourth line items of the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses before and after expense reimbursements based on the Feeder Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which are not the Feeder Funds’ actual returns. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses one paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Feeder Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight one’s ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help one determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If these transactional costs had been included, one’s costs would have been higher.

Notes to Financial Statements

1. Organization
 
Kinetics Mutual Funds, Inc. (the “Company”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and is incorporated in the State of Maryland. The Company is an open-end management investment company issuing its shares in series. One billion shares are authorized for the Company with a par value of $0.001 per share. The series of the Company presently authorized are The Internet Fund (“Internet”), The Global Fund (“Global”), The Paradigm Fund (“Paradigm”), The Medical Fund (“Medical”), The Small Cap Opportunities Fund (“Small Cap”), The Market Opportunities Fund (“Market Opportunities”), The Alternative Income Fund (“Alternative Income”), and The Multi-Disciplinary Fund (“Multi-Disciplinary”). Investment operations of the Company began on October 21, 1996 (Internet), September 30, 1999 (Medical), December 31, 1999 (Global and Paradigm), March 20, 2000 (Small Cap), January 31, 2006 (Market Opportunities), June 29, 2007 (Alternative Income), and February 11, 2008 (Multi-Disciplinary). Each series, unlike many other investment companies which directly acquire and manage their own portfolios of securities, seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing all of its investable assets in a corresponding portfolio series (each a “Master Portfolio” and collectively the “Master Portfolios”) of Kinetics Portfolios Trust (the “Trust”).
 
On April 28, 2000 (January 31, 2006 with respect to Market Opportunities, June 29, 2007 with respect to Alternative Income, and February 11, 2008 with respect to Multi-Disciplinary), each series in the Company entered into a master-feeder fund structure. By entering into this structure, each series (each a “Feeder Fund” and collectively, the “Feeder Funds”) invested all of its assets in a corresponding Master Portfolio which had the same investment objective as the Feeder Fund. Each Master Portfolio has multiple feeder funds. Each Feeder Fund receives a proportionate amount of interest in the Master Portfolio equal to its relative contribution of capital. Thus, each Feeder Fund is allocated its portion of income, gains (losses) and expenses from the Master Portfolio.

 
35

 

KINETICS MUTUAL FUNDS, INC. — THE FEEDER FUNDS
Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)
June 30, 2014 (Unaudited)
 
Each Feeder Fund’s respective interest in the corresponding Master Portfolio as of June 30, 2014 is as follows:
   
Interest in
 
   
Master Portfolio
 
Internet Fund
    99.989 %
Global Fund
    99.924 %
Paradigm Fund
    96.476 %
Medical Fund
    99.886 %
Small Cap Fund
    99.990 %
Market Opportunities Fund
    99.973 %
Alternative Income Fund
    99.613 %
Multi-Disciplinary Fund
    99.859 %
 
Prior to the conversion to a master-feeder fund structure on April 28, 2000, each then existing series conducted its own investment operations.
 
As of June 30, 2014 each of the Feeder Funds offers Advisor Class A shares. Advisor Class A shares are subject to an annual Rule 12b-1 fee of 0.25% of average daily net assets and a shareholder servicing fee of 0.25% of average daily net assets. The Advisor Class A shares are also subject to a front-end sales charge of 5.75%.
 
As of June 30, 2014, each of the Feeder Funds offers Advisor Class C shares. Advisor Class C shares are subject to an annual Rule 12b-1 fee of 0.75% of average daily net assets and a shareholder servicing fee of 0.25% of average daily net assets. If you sell your Advisor Class C shares within 12 months of purchase, you will have to pay a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.00%, which is applied to the NAV of the shares on the date of original purchase or on the date of redemption, whichever is less.
 
As of June 30, 2014, each of the Feeder Funds offers No Load Class shares. No Load Class shares are subject to a shareholder servicing fee of 0.25% of average daily net assets but do not have 12b-1 fees or a sales charge.
 
As of June 30, 2014 the Paradigm, Small Cap, Market Opportunities, Alternative Income, and Multi-Disciplinary Funds offer Institutional Class shares. Institutional Class shares are subject to a shareholder servicing fee of 0.20% of average daily net assets but do not have 12b-1 fees or a sales charge. The Adviser has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the Institutional Class shareholder servicing fee in excess of 0.05%.

Each class of shares for each Fund has identical rights and privileges except with respect to the Rule 12b-1 fees paid by the Advisor Class A and Advisor Class C shares, the sales charge on the Advisor Class A shares, the shareholder servicing fees paid by the Advisor Class A, Advisor Class C, No Load Class and Institutional Class shares, voting rights on matters pertaining to a single class of shares and the exchange privileges of each class of shares. Shares of each Feeder Fund will assess a 2.00% redemption fee (with exceptions) on shares redeemed or exchanged within 30 days of purchase. Income, expenses (other than expenses attributable to a specific class), and realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are allocated to each class based on its relative net assets.
 
Refer to the Master Portfolio’s financial statements to obtain information about the investment objective of the corresponding Feeder Fund. The financial statements of the Master Portfolios, including the portfolios of investments, are contained elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Feeder Funds’ financial statements.
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies
 
Security Valuation
Master Portfolio securities that are listed on a U.S. securities exchange for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sale price on the day the valuation is made. Price information on listed securities is taken from the exchange where the security is primarily traded. All equity securities that are traded using the National Association of Securities Dealers’ Automated Quotation System (“NASDAQ”) are valued using the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). Foreign securities are valued by an independent pricing service. In the event market quotations are not readily available or if events occur that may materially affect the value of a particular security between the time trading ends on a particular security and the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), “fair value” will be determined. Unlisted U.S. securities and listed U.S. securities not traded on the valuation date for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last bid price. Exchange traded options are valued at the composite price, using the National Best Bid and Offer quotes (“NBBO”). NBBO consists of the highest bid price and lowest ask price across any of the exchanges on which an option is quoted, thus providing a view across the entire U.S. options marketplace. Composite option pricing calculates the mean of the highest bid price and lowest ask price across the exchanges where the option is traded. If

 
37

 

KINETICS MUTUAL FUNDS, INC. — THE FEEDER FUNDS
Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)
June 30, 2014 (Unaudited)
 
the composite option price is not available, the mean between the highest bid and the lowest asked quotations at the close of the exchanges will be used. If none of the above are available, exchange traded options are valued at the last quoted sales price. Non-exchange traded options for which over-the-counter quotations are not readily available are valued at the mean of the current bid and asked prices. Fixed-income securities (other than obligations having a maturity of 60 days or less) are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from pricing services, which take into account appropriate factors such as institutional-sized trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other market data.
 
Investment grade fixed-income securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Other assets and securities for which no quotations are readily available (including restricted securities) will be valued in good faith at fair value using methods determined by the Board of Trustees of the Master Portfolios. In determining the fair value of a security, the Board of Trustees shall take into account the relevant factors and surrounding circumstances, which may include: (i) the nature and pricing history (if any) of the security; (ii) whether any dealer quotations for the security are available; (iii) possible valuation methodologies that could be used to determine the fair value of the security; (iv) the recommendation of the portfolio manager of the Portfolios with respect to the valuation of the security; (v) whether the same or similar securities are held by other funds managed by the Advisor or other funds and the method used to price the security in those funds; (vi) the extent to which the fair value to be determined for the security will result from the use of data or formula produced by third parties independent of the Advisor; and (vii) the liquidity or illiquidity of the market for the security; and (viii) the value of a foreign security traded on other foreign markets. At June 30, 2014, 0.00%, 0.00%, and 0.00% of the net assets of The Internet Portfolio, The Paradigm Portfolio and The Market Opportunities Portfolio, respectively, were fair valued securities. The other Master Portfolios did not hold any fair valued securities at June 30, 2014.
 
Repurchase Agreements
Each Master Portfolio may enter into repurchase agreements with banks that are members of the Federal Reserve System or securities dealers who are members of a national securities exchange or are primary dealers in U.S. Government Securities. In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, it is the Trust’s policy that the Master Portfolio receive, as collateral, securities whose market value, including accrued interest, at all times will be at least equal to

 
38

 

KINETICS MUTUAL FUNDS, INC. — THE FEEDER FUNDS
Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)
June 30, 2014 (Unaudited)
 
102% of the amount invested by the Master Portfolio in each repurchase agreement. If the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines, realization of the collateral by the Master Portfolio may be delayed or limited.
 
Written Option Accounting
The Master Portfolios may write (sell) call or put options for trading or hedging purposes. When the Master Portfolio writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Master Portfolio is included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset and an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option written. By writing the option, the Master Portfolio may become obligated during the term of the option to deliver or purchase the securities underlying the option at the exercise price if the option is exercised. When an option expires on its stipulated expiration date or the Master Portfolio enters into a closing purchase transaction, the Master Portfolio realizes a gain or loss if the cost of the closing transaction differs from the premium received when the option was sold, without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying security, and the liability related to such option is eliminated. When an option is exercised, the premium originally received decreases the cost basis of the underlying security (or increases the proceeds on the security sold short) and the Master Portfolio realizes a gain or loss from the sale of the security (or closing of the short sale). As collateral for uncovered written options, the Master Portfolio is required under the 1940 Act to maintain assets consisting of cash, cash equivalents or liquid securities. This collateral is required to be adjusted daily to reflect the exercise price of the purchase obligation for put options or the market value of the instrument underlying the contract for call options.
 
Foreign Currency Translations
The books and records of the Master Portfolios are maintained in U.S. dollars. For the Master Portfolios, foreign currency transactions are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis: (i) market values of investment securities and other assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate of such currencies against the U.S. dollar, as provided by an approved pricing service, and (ii) purchases and sales of investment securities, dividend and interest income and certain expenses at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The Master Portfolios do not isolate and treat as ordinary income that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the exchange rate from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of securities held

during the period. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments. However, for federal income tax purposes, the Master Portfolios do isolate and treat as ordinary income the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates arising from actual foreign currency transactions and the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates arising between trade date and settlement date.
 
Restricted and Illiquid Securities
The Master Portfolios may invest in restricted securities. These securities are valued by the Master Portfolios after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions and the issuer’s financial performance. The Master Portfolios have no right to require registration of unregistered securities. At June 30, 2014 the following Master Portfolio held securities restricted to institutional investors (144A securities):
 
         
Percentage of
 
   
Market Value

The Alternative Income Portfolio
  $ 658,595       2.20 %
The Multi-Disciplinary Portfolio
    17,578,917       15.57 %
 
An illiquid asset is any asset which may not be sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of business within seven days at approximately the value at which the Master Portfolio has valued the investment. At June 30, 2014, the following Master Portfolios held illiquid securities:

    *     0.00 %
The Multi-Disciplinary Portfolio
    525,000       0.47 %
   
*
Amount is less than $0.50.
 
When-Issued Securities
The Master Portfolios may purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. Although the purchase amounts of these securities are established at the time the purchaser enters into the agreement, these securities may be delivered and paid for at a future date. The Master Portfolios record purchases of when-issued securities and reflect the values of such securities in determining net asset value in the same manner as other portfolio

 
40

 

KINETICS MUTUAL FUNDS, INC. — THE FEEDER FUNDS
Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)
June 30, 2014 (Unaudited)
 
securities. The Master Portfolios maintain at all times cash or other liquid assets in an amount at least equal to the amount of outstanding commitments for when-issued securities.
 
Securities Lending
Each Master Portfolio may lend its portfolio securities to broker-dealers by entering directly into lending arrangements with such broker-dealers or indirectly through repurchase agreements with respect to no more than 331/3% of the total assets of each Master Portfolio (including any collateral posted) or 50% of the total assets of each Master Portfolio (excluding any collateral posted). Securities lending and repurchase transactions will be fully collateralized at all times with cash and/or short-term debt obligations. The Master Portfolios receive interest on the collateral received as well as a fee for the securities loaned.
 
Expense Allocation
Common expenses incurred by Feeder Funds are allocated among the Feeder Funds (i) based upon relative average net assets, (ii) as incurred on a specific identification basis, or (iii) equally among the Feeder Funds, depending on the nature of the expenditure.
 
Each Feeder Fund records its proportionate share of the corresponding Master Portfolio’s expenses on a daily basis. In addition, each Feeder Fund accrues its own separate expenses. Any cap on expenses includes Feeder Fund-specific expenses as well as the expenses allocated from the Master Portfolio.
 
Federal Income Taxes
Each Master Portfolio will be treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. As such, each investor in the Master Portfolio via its investment in a Feeder Fund will be subject to taxation on its share of the Master Portfolio’s ordinary income and capital gains. It is intended that the Master Portfolio’s assets will be managed so an investor in the Master Portfolio via its investment in a Feeder Fund can satisfy the requirements of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code.
 
It is the Feeder Funds’ policy to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Feeder Funds

intend to distribute investment company net taxable income and net capital gains to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is recorded.
 
Dividends from net investment income and distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, will be declared and paid at least annually. The character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from the characterization for federal income tax purposes due to differences in the recognition of income, expenses and gain items for financial statement and tax purposes. Additionally, the Feeder Funds may utilize earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemption of shares as part of the dividends paid deduction for income tax purposes. Where appropriate, reclassifications between capital accounts are made for such differences that are permanent in nature
 
There is no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in future tax returns. As of June 30, 2014, open tax years include the tax years ended December 31, 2010 through 2013. The Funds are also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next six months.
 
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Other
Realized gains and losses on the sale of investments are calculated on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is accounted for on the accrual basis and includes amortization of premiums and discounts on the interest method. Other noncash dividends are recognized as investment income at the fair value of the property received. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Company’s understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.

The Company, on behalf of the Feeder Funds, has adopted two Retail Distribution Plans pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (the “12b-1Plans”).

4. Reclassification of Capital Accounts
 
GAAP requires that certain components of net assets relating to permanent differences be reclassified between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. For the year ended December 31, 2013, each Fund recorded the following reclassifications to the accounts listed below:

Notes to Financial Statements

1. Organization
 
The Kinetics Portfolios Trust (the “Trust”) was organized as a Delaware Statutory Trust on March 14, 2000 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company issuing its beneficial interests in series, each series representing a distinct portfolio with its own investment objective and policies. The series currently authorized are: The Internet Portfolio, The Global Portfolio, The Paradigm Portfolio, The Medical Portfolio, The Small Cap Opportunities Portfolio, The Market Opportunities Portfolio, The Alternative Income Portfolio and The Multi-Disciplinary Portfolio (collectively, the “Master Portfolios”). Pursuant to the 1940 Act, the Master Portfolios, are “non-diversified” series of the Trust, except The Global Portfolio and The Multi-Disciplinary Portfolio. The Market Opportunities Portfolio commenced operations on January 31, 2006, The Alternative Income Portfolio commenced operations on June 29, 2007 and The Multi-Disciplinary Portfolio commenced operations on February 11, 2008. Each of the remaining Master Portfolios commenced operations on April 28, 2000.
 
Each Master Portfolio is a Master Investment Portfolio in a master-feeder fund structure. Each Master Portfolio has multiple feeder funds invested in the Master Portfolio. By contributing assets to the Master Portfolio, the feeder funds receive a beneficial interest in the Master Portfolio. The Master Portfolio then invests the contributed assets in portfolio securities and allocates income, gains (losses) and expenses to the feeder funds based on the feeder funds’ proportionate interests in the Master Portfolio.
 
Each of the Master Portfolios, except for The Alternative Income Portfolio and The Multi-Disciplinary Portfolio, seeks to provide investors with long-term capital growth. The Alternative Income Portfolio seeks to provide current income and gains. The Multi-Disciplinary Portfolio seeks to provide investors with total return. The Internet Portfolio invests primarily in the equity securities of U.S. and foreign companies engaged in the Internet and Internet-related activities. The Global Portfolio generally invests in the equity securities of foreign companies that have the ability to facilitate an increase in the growth of their traditional business lines and in U.S. companies benefiting from international economic growth. The Paradigm Portfolio invests primarily in the equity securities of U.S. and foreign companies that the investment adviser believes are undervalued and that have high returns on equity and are well positioned to reduce their costs, extend the reach of their distribution channels and experience significant growth in their assets or revenues. The Medical

Portfolio invests primarily in the equity securities of U.S. and foreign companies engaged in medical research, pharmaceutical treatments and related medical technology industries and related technology industries, generally, with a focus on companies engaged in cancer research and drug development. The Small Cap Opportunities Portfolio invests primarily in the equity securities of U.S. and foreign small capitalized companies that provide attractive valuation opportunities due to special situations such as lack of institutional ownership, lack of significant analyst coverage or companies with sound fundamentals that have experienced a short-term earnings shortfall. The Market Opportunities Portfolio invests primarily in the equity securities of U.S. and foreign companies engaged in capital markets or related to capital markets, as well as companies involved in the gaming industry. The Alternative Income and Multi-Disciplinary Portfolios utilizes a two-part investment strategy, which includes fixed income and derivatives components.
 
2. Significant Accounting Policies
 
Security Valuation
Master Portfolio securities that are listed on a U.S. securities exchange for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sale price on the day the valuation is made. Price information on listed securities is taken from the exchange where the security is primarily traded. All equity securities that are traded using the National Association of Securities Dealers’ Automated Quotation System (“NASDAQ”) are valued using the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). Foreign securities are valued by an independent pricing service. In the event market quotations are not readily available or if events occur that may materially affect the value of a particular security between the time trading ends on a particular security and the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), “fair value” will be determined. Unlisted U.S. securities and listed U.S. securities not traded on the valuation date for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last bid price. Exchange traded options are valued at the composite price, using the National Best Bid and Offer quotes (“NBBO”). NBBO consists of the highest bid price and lowest ask price across any of the exchanges on which an option is quoted thus providing a view across the entire U.S. options marketplace. Composite option pricing calculates the mean of the highest bid price and lowest ask price across the exchanges where the option is traded. If the composite option price is not available, the mean between the highest bid and the lowest asked quotations at the close of the exchanges will be used. If none of the above are available, exchange traded options are valued at the last

quoted sales price. Non-exchange traded options for which over-the-counter quotations are not readily available are valued at the mean of the current bid and asked prices. Fixed-income securities (other than obligations having a maturity of 60 days or less) are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from pricing services, which take into account appropriate factors such as institutional-sized trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other market data.
 
Investment grade fixed-income securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Other assets and securities for which no quotations are readily available (including restricted securities) will be valued in good faith at fair value using methods determined by the Board of Trustees of the Master Portfolios. In determining the fair value of a security, the Board of Trustees shall take into account the relevant factors and surrounding circumstances, which may include: (i) the nature and pricing history (if any) of the security; (ii) whether any dealer quotations for the security are available; (iii) possible valuation methodologies that could be used to determine the fair value of the security; (iv) the recommendation of the portfolio manager of the Portfolios with respect to the valuation of the security; (v) whether the same or similar securities are held by other funds managed by the Advisor or other funds and the method used to price the security in those funds; (vi) the extent to which the fair value to be determined for the security will result from the use of data or formula produced by third parties independent of the Advisor; (vii) the liquidity or illiquidity of the market for the security; and (viii) the value of a foreign security traded on other foreign markets. At June 30, 2014, 0.00%, 0.00% and 0.00% of the net assets of The Internet Portfolio, The Paradigm Portfolio and The Market Opportunities Portfolio, respectively, were fair valued securities. The other Master Portfolios did not hold any fair valued securities at June 30, 2014.
 
Repurchase Agreements
Each Master Portfolio may enter into repurchase agreements with banks that are members of the Federal Reserve System or securities dealers who are members of a national securities exchange or are primary dealers in U.S. Government Securities. In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, it is the Trust’s policy that the Master Portfolio receive, as collateral, securities whose market value, including accrued interest, at all times will be at least equal to 102% of the amount invested by the Master Portfolio in each repurchase agreement. If the seller defaults, and the value of the collateral declines, realization of the collateral by the Master Portfolio may be delayed or limited.

Written Options
The Master Portfolios may write (sell) call or put options for trading or hedging purposes. When a Master Portfolio writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Master Portfolio is included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset and an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option written. By writing the option, the Master Portfolio may become obligated during the term of the option to deliver or purchase the securities underlying the option at the exercise price if the option is exercised. When an option expires on its stipulated expiration date or the Master Portfolio enters into a closing purchase transaction, the Master Portfolio realizes a gain or loss if the cost of the closing transaction differs from the premium received when the option was sold, without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying security, and the liability related to such option is eliminated. When an option is exercised, the premium originally received decreases the cost basis of the underlying security (or increases the proceeds on the security sold short) and the Master Portfolio realizes a gain or loss from the sale of the security (or closing of the short sale). As collateral for uncovered written options, the Master Portfolio is required under the 1940 Act to maintain assets consisting of cash, cash equivalents or liquid securities. This collateral is required to be adjusted daily to reflect the exercise price of the purchase obligation for put options or the market value of the instrument underlying the contract for call options.
 
Foreign Currency Translations
The books and records of the Master Portfolios are maintained in U.S. dollars. For the Master Portfolios, foreign currency transactions are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis: (i) market values of investment securities and other assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate of such currencies against the U.S. dollar, as provided by an approved pricing service, and (ii) purchases and sales of investment securities, dividend and interest income and certain expenses at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The Master Portfolios do not isolate and treat as ordinary income that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the exchange rate from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of securities held during the period. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments. However, for federal income tax purposes, the Master Portfolios do isolate and treat as ordinary income the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates arising from actual foreign currency transactions and

KINETICS PORTFOLIOS TRUST — MASTER INVESTMENT PORTFOLIOS
Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)
June 30, 2014 (Unaudited)
 
the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates arising between trade date and settlement date.
 
Restricted and Illiquid Securities
The Master Portfolios may invest in restricted securities. These securities are valued by the Master Portfolios after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions and the issuer’s financial performance. The Master Portfolios have no right to require registration of unregistered securities. At June 30, 2014 the following Master Portfolios held securities restricted to institutional investors (144A Securities):

         
Percentage of

The Alternative Income Portfolio
  $ 658,595       2.20 %
The Multi-Disciplinary Portfolio
    17,578,917       15.57 %
 
An illiquid asset is any asset which may not be sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of business within seven days at approximately the value at which the Master Portfolio has valued the investment. At June 30, 2014, the following Master Portfolios held illiquid securities:

The Market Opportunities Portfolio
    *     0.00 %
The Multi-Disciplinary Portfolio
    525,000       0.47 %
   
* Amount is less than $0.50.
 
When-Issued Securities
The Master Portfolios may purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. Although the purchase amounts of these securities are established at the time the purchaser enters into the agreement, these securities may be delivered and paid for at a future date. The Master Portfolios record purchases of when-issued securities and reflect the values of such securities in determining net asset value in the same manner as other portfolio securities. The Master Portfolios maintain at all times cash or other liquid assets in an amount at least equal to the amount of outstanding commitments for when-issued securities.

Securities Lending
Each Master Portfolio may lend its portfolio securities to broker-dealers by entering directly into lending arrangements with such broker dealers or indirectly through repurchase agreements with respect to no more than 331/3% of the total assets of each Master Portfolio (including any collateral posted) or 50% of the total assets of each Master Portfolio (excluding any collateral posted). Securities lending and repurchase transactions will be fully collateralized at all times with cash and/or short-term debt obligations. The Master Portfolios receive interest on the collateral received as well as a fee for the securities loaned.
 
Short-Term Investments
The Portfolios may invest in money market funds and short-term high quality debt securities such as commercial paper, repurchase agreements and certificates of deposit. Money market funds typically invest in short-term instruments and attempt to maintain a stable net asset value. While the risk is low, these funds may lose value. At June 30, 2014, The Internet Portfolio, The Global Portfolio, The Paradigm Portfolio, The Medical Portfolio, The Small Cap Opportunities Portfolio, The Market Opportunities Portfolio and The Multi-Disciplinary Portfolio invested approximately 13%, 7%, 6%, 20%, 11%, 9% and 22%, respectively, of net assets in the Mount Vernon Securities Lending Trust-Prime Portfolio which normally invests in short-term instruments with an objective of maximizing current income to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital and liquidity. Mount Vernon Securities Lending Trust-Prime Portfolio’s financial statements are available on the SEC website www.sec.gov.
 
Expense Allocation
Common expenses incurred by the Master Portfolios are allocated among the Master Portfolios (i) based upon relative average net assets, (ii) as incurred on a specific identification basis, or (iii) equally among the Master Portfolios, depending on the nature of the expenditure. All expenses incurred by the Master Portfolios are allocated to the feeder funds daily based on their proportionate interests in the respective Master Portfolios.
 
Federal Income Taxes
Each Master Portfolio will be treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. As such, each investor in a Master Portfolio will be subject to taxation on its share of the Master Portfolio’s ordinary income and capital gains. It is intended that each Master Portfolio’s assets will be managed so an investor in

the Master Portfolio can satisfy the requirements of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code.
 
There is no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in future tax returns. As of June 30, 2014, open tax years include the tax years ended December 31, 2010 through 2013. The Master Portfolios are also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next six months.
 
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Other
Realized gains and losses on the sale of investments are calculated on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is accounted for on the accrual basis and includes amortization of premiums and discounts on the interest method. Other noncash dividends are recognized as investment income at the fair value of the property received. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Trust’s understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.
 
3. Investment Adviser
 
The Trust has entered into Investment Advisory Agreements (the “Agreements”) with Kinetics Asset Management LLC (the “Adviser”), with whom certain officers and trustees of the Trust are affiliated, to furnish investment advisory services to the Master Portfolios. The Adviser is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Horizon Kinetics LLC. Under the terms of the Agreements, the Master Portfolios, except the Alternative Income Portfolio, compensate the Adviser for its management services at the annual rate of 1.25% of each Master Portfolio’s average daily net assets. The Alternative Income Portfolio compensates the Adviser for its management services at the annual rate of 0.90% of the Master Portfolio’s average daily net assets.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, The Internet Portfolio, The Global Portfolio, The Paradigm Portfolio, The Medical Portfolio, The Small Cap Opportunities Portfolio, The Market Opportunities Portfolio, The Alternative Income Portfolio and The Multi-Disciplinary Portfolio incurred expenses of $1,058,487, $71,967, $8,173,674, $164,582, $2,506,653, $409,237, $122,810 and $640,659, respectively, pursuant to the Agreements.
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Trust was allocated $13,000 for the services of the Chief Compliance Officer employed by the Adviser.
 
4. Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts by Trustees of Kinetics Portfolios Trust
 
At a meeting of the Board of Trustees of the Trust held on March 14, 2014, the Board, including all of the Trustees who are not interested persons under the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), approved the Advisory Agreements with respect to each Master Portfolio. In reaching a decision to renew the Advisory Agreements, the Board of Trustees, including all of the Independent Trustees, considered, among others (1) the nature, extent, and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser, including, but not limited to, a review of the complexity of the services provided, whether the services are provided in a satisfactory and efficient manner; (2) the experience and qualifications of the personnel providing such services; (3) the investment performance of the Trust and the Adviser as compared with industry competitors; (4) an evaluation of the fee structure, any fee waivers, and the Trust’s expense ratios, and a comparison of them in relation to those of other investment companies having comparable investment policies and limitations; (5) possible alternative fee structures or bases for determining fees; (6) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Trust grows and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of the Trust’s investors; (7) the direct and indirect costs of the services to be provided (and the basis of determining and allocating these costs) and profits to be realized by the Adviser and its affiliates from their relationship with the Trust; (8) other compensation or possible benefits to the Adviser and its affiliates arising from their advisory and other relationships with the Trust, including, if applicable, any benefits derived or to be derived by the Adviser from its relationship with the Trust such as soft dollar arrangements by which brokers provide research to the Trust or the Adviser in return for allocating the Trust’s brokerage; (9) the entrepreneurial risks borne by the Adviser, if any (e.g., because a fund is in a start-up mode or for other reasons, its revenues may be less or its expenses greater than anticipated); and (10) a

comparison of the fees charged by the Adviser with fees charged by the Adviser to similar clients;
 
The Board of Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, concluded that: they were satisfied with the quality of services provided by the Adviser in advising the Master Portfolios, the profits earned by the Adviser were reasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to each Master Portfolio; and that each Master Portfolio was not large enough to attain significant economies of scale. Based on the factors considered, the Board of Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, concluded that it was appropriate to renew the Agreements.

6. Portfolio Securities Loaned
 
As of June 30, 2014, the Master Portfolios had loaned securities that were collateralized by cash. The cash collateral is invested by the custodian in a money market pooled account approved by the Adviser. Although risk is mitigated by the collateral, a Master Portfolio could experience a delay in recovering its securities and possible loss of income or value if the borrower fails to return them. The Master Portfolio receives interest on the collateral received as well as a fee for the securities loaned. The Master Portfolios will continue to receive dividends and interest on all securities loaned. Gain or loss in the fair value of the securities loaned that may occur during the term of the loan will be accounted for by the Master Portfolios. The value of the securities on loan and the value of the related collateral at June 30, 2014, were as follows:

8. Summary of Fair Value Exposure
 
Various inputs are used in determining the value of a Master Portfolio’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that a Master Portfolio has the ability to access.
   
 
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.
   
 
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing a Master Portfolio’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available.
 
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. 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 level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

10. Offsetting Assets and Liabilities
 
The Portfolios are subject to various Master Netting Arrangements, which govern the terms of certain transactions with select counterparties. The Master Netting Arrangements allow the Portfolio to close out and net its total exposure to a counterparty in the event of a default with respect to all the transactions governed under a single agreement with a counterparty. The Master Netting Arrangements also specify collateral posting arrangements at pre-arranged exposure levels. Under the Master Netting Arrangements, collateral is routinely transferred if the total net exposure to certain transactions (net of existing collateral already in place) governed under the relevant Master Netting Arrangement with a counterparty in a given account exceeds a specified threshold depending on the counterparty and the type of Master Netting Arrangement.

The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2014, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently evaluating the impact these disclosures will have on the Fund’s financial statement disclosures.
