NexPoint Open-End Funds

Overview

The investment objective of NexPoint Merger Arbitrage Fund (the “Merger Arbitrage Fund” or the “Fund”) is to generate positive absolute returns.

NexPoint Merger Arbitrage Fund

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the value of its total assets (net assets plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in securities of companies that are involved in publicly-announced mergers (including mergers through takeovers and tender offers, so long as tender offers are being used to effect a merger) (“Merger Transactions”) or companies that the Adviser believes may be involved in Merger Transactions. This investment policy is not fundamental and may be changed by the Fund without shareholder approval upon 60 days’ prior written notice to shareholders. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.

The Fund engages in risk arbitrage strategies, particularly merger arbitrage strategies, in order to achieve its investment objective. Merger arbitrage is a highly specialized investment approach generally designed to profit from the successful completion of Merger Transactions. Although a variety of strategies may be employed depending upon the nature of the reorganizations selected for investment, the simplest form of merger arbitrage activity involves purchasing the shares of an announced acquisition target at a discount to their expected value upon completion of the acquisition. The size of this discount, known as the arbitrage “spread,” may represent the Fund’s potential profit on such an investment. The merger arbitrage strategy is designed to provide performance that the Adviser believes will normally have relatively low correlation
with the overall performance of stock markets.

The Fund generally invests in stocks of target companies in potential Merger Transactions based on the Adviser’s expected risk adjusted return for the arbitrage transaction. In most cases, the Fund will buy the target’s stock soon after the announcement of the Merger Transaction (or when one or more publicly disclosed events point toward the possibility of some type of Merger Transaction within a reasonable time) and may, but is not required to, hold the stock until the deal is completed. While the Fund will usually invest in the common stock of the target, it may also invest in other securities of the target such as convertible debentures, debt, American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), options, and bonds.

In making merger arbitrage investments for the Fund, the Adviser is guided, without limitation, by the following general considerations:
• Annualized and absolute returns;
• Downside risk if a transaction is terminated;
• Proposed financing terms;
• Transaction size;
• Regulatory approvals needed;
• Anti-trust concerns; and
• Shareholder voting requirements.

NexPoint Event Driven Fund

Investment Objective

The investment objective of NexPoint Event Driven Fund (the “Event Driven Fund” or the “Fund”) is to seek long-term capital appreciation.

Investment Strategy

The Event Driven Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in event catalysts including, mergers, acquisitions, tender offers, restructuring, spin-offs, refinancings, recapitalizations or economic events that can impact specific industries.

Investment Rationale

Alternative investment that seeks to reduce overall portfolio volatility and correlation
Potential alternative or complement to equity or high yield replacement

NexPoint Climate Tech Fund

Investment Objective

The investment objective of NexPoint Climate Tech Fund (“Climate Tech Fund” or the “Fund”) is to seek long-term growth of capital.

Investment Strategy

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing at least 80% of its net assets under normal circumstances in equity securities, such as common and preferred stocks, of climate tech companies. The Fund defines “climate tech” as technologies and business models that act to decarbonize the energy, transport, buildings and infrastructure, industry, and agriculture sectors.

Investment Rational

Diversification

We believe the strategy can perform in a manner different from the broad equity market. Efforts to combat climate change should be the main drivers of performance, as opposed to broad economic profitability.

Divestment

For those interested in fossil fuel divestment, clean energy solutions (solar, wind, clean power generation, electric vehicles, etc.) can provide indirect exposure to fossil fuel prices, as clean energy solutions compete with fossil fuels.

Inflation Environments

Because of direct investments in materials, agriculture, infrastructure, water, etc., and indirect exposure to fossil fuel prices via clean energy solutions, we believe the strategy may perform well in certain inflationary environments.

An Inefficient Opportunity

The companies addressing climate change are historically small-to mid-cap companies with little analyst coverage, often operating in new, poorly understood growth opportunities.

NexPoint Interval Funds

Overview

NexPoint manages a real estate focused interval fund, the NexPoint Real Estate Strategies Fund, which seeks long-term total return with an emphasis on current income. The fund pursues opportunities across real estate asset classes that are best suited for the interval fund structure.

NexPoint Real Estate Strategies Fund

The NexPoint Real Estate Strategies Fund is a continuously offered, non-diversified, closed-end investment company that operates as an interval fund.

An interval fund is a type of closed-end fund; however, unlike traditional closed-end funds, shares of an interval fund do not typically trade on the secondary market. Interval funds can also continuously offer shares at a price based on the fund’s net asset value.

The fund is managed by NexPoint Advisors, L.P., a registered investment adviser on the NexPoint platform.

The fund seeks long-term total return with an emphasis on income. It primarily invests in a broad range of real estate-related debt, equity, and preferred equity investments across multiple real estate sectors.

Investments include:

  • commercial mortgage backed securities (CMBS) and residential mortgage backed securities (RMBS);
  • direct preferred equity and mezzanine investments in real properties;
  • equity securities of public REITs (both traded and non-traded);
  • debt and equity of private REITs and real estate operating companies (REOCs); and
  • opportunistic and value added direct real estate strategies (through a wholly-owned REIT).
