Chair’s Letter

to Shareholders

 

LOGO   

Dear Shareholders,

 

Financial markets spent the past year focused on the direction of inflation and whether policy makers would be able to deliver a soft landing in their economies. After more than a year and a half of interest rate increases by the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) and other central banks, financial conditions have tightened and inflation rates have cooled considerably. The Fed increased the target fed funds rate from near zero in March 2022 to a range of 5.25% to 5.50% as of November 2023, with pauses in June 2023, September 2023 and November 2023. But current inflation rates remain above central banks’ targets, and the trajectory from here is difficult to predict given that monetary policy acts on the economy with long and variable lags.

 

Surprisingly, economies were relatively resilient for much of 2023. By year-end, the “most predicted recession” had yet to materialize in the U.S., while U.K. and European economic growth was just beginning to show signs of stagnation or decline. U.S. gross domestic product rose 5.2% in the third quarter of 2023, 2.1% in the second quarter of 2023 and 2.0% in the first quarter of 2023, after growing 2.1% in 2022 overall compared to 2021. Much of the growth was driven by a relatively strong jobs market, which kept consumer sentiment and spending elevated despite long-term interest rates nearing multi-year highs, a series of U.S. regional bank failures and shocks from flaring geopolitical tensions.

 

While central banks are likely nearing the end of this interest rate hiking cycle, there are still upside risks to inflation and downside risks to the economy. Some labor market and consumer indicators are softening. Government funding and deficits remain a concern, especially as the U.S. election year gets underway. The markets will continue to try to anticipate monetary policy shifts as the Fed evaluates incoming data and adjusts its rate setting activity on a meeting-by-meeting basis. Geopolitical risks – from relations with China, to wars in Europe and the Middle East – also expand the range of outcomes from economies and markets around the world. All these uncertainties, and others, will remain sources of short-term market volatility. In this environment, Nuveen remains committed to filtering the market noise for investable opportunities that ultimately serve long-term investment objectives. Maintaining a long-term perspective is also important for investors, and we encourage you to review your time horizon, risk tolerance and investment goals with your financial professional.

 

On behalf of the other members of the Nuveen Fund Board, we look forward to continuing to earn your trust in the months and years ahead.

Here the portfolio management teams discuss U.S. economic and municipal market conditions, key investment strategies and the Funds’ performance for the twelve-month reporting period ended October 31, 2023. For more information on the Funds’ investment objectives and policies, please refer to the Shareholder Update section at the end of the report.

What factors affected the U.S. economy and market conditions during the twelve-month annual reporting period ended October 31, 2023?

The U.S. economy performed better than expected despite persistent inflationary pressure and rising interest rates during the twelve-month period ended October 31, 2023. Gross domestic product accelerated sharply in the third quarter of 2023 to an annualized rate of 5.2%, according to the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis second estimate, up from 2.1% in the second quarter of 2023. By comparison, GDP grew 2.1% in 2022 overall. Early in the reporting period, inflation had risen sharply because of supply chain disruptions and high food and energy prices, the Russia-Ukraine war and China’s zero-COVID restrictions (lifted in December 2022). Since then, price pressures have eased given normalization in supply chains, falling energy prices and aggressive measures by the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) and other global central banks to tighten financial conditions and slow demand in their economies. Nevertheless, during the reporting period inflation levels remained much higher than central banks’ target levels.

The Fed raised its target fed funds rate six times during the reporting period, bringing it to a range of 5.25% to 5.50% as of July 2023 and voting to hold it at that level at its next two meetings held near the end of the reporting period. For much of the reporting period, the Fed’s activity led to significant volatility in bond and stock markets, given the uncertainty of how rising interest rates would affect the economy. One of the most highly visible impacts occurred in the U.S. regional banking sector in March 2023, when Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank, First Republic Bank and Silvergate Bank failed. In the same month, Swiss bank UBS agreed to buy Credit Suisse, which was considered vulnerable in the current environment. The Fed’s monetary tightening policy also contributed to an increase in the U.S. dollar’s value relative to major world currencies, which acts as a headwind to the profits of international companies and U.S. domestic companies with overseas earnings.

During the reporting period, elevated inflation and higher borrowing costs weighed on some segments of the economy, including the real estate market. Consumer spending, however, has remained more resilient than expected, in part because of a still-strong labor market, another key gauge of the economy’s health. As of October 2023, the unemployment rate was 3.9%, rising from its pre-pandemic low, with monthly job growth continuing to moderate. The strong labor market and wage gains helped the U.S. economy during the reporting period, even as the Fed sought to soften job growth to help curb inflation pressures.

During the reporting period, investors also continued to monitor government funding and deficits. The U.S. government avoided a default scenario after approving an increase to the debt ceiling limit in June 2023. At the same time, the potential for a government shutdown loomed but was ultimately avoided with funding resolutions passed in September 2023 and, subsequent to the close of the reporting period, November 2023. Notably, in August 2023, ratings agency Fitch downgraded U.S. debt from AAA to AA+ based on concerns about the U.S.’s growing fiscal debt and reduced confidence in fiscal management.

The broad municipal bond market was impacted by interest rate volatility and economic uncertainty during the reporting period. Municipal yields rose across the maturity spectrum, but the move was uneven. The greatest increase in yields was at the shorter end

Portfolio Managers’ Comments (continued)

 

of the curve as markets priced in a more aggressive pace of monetary tightening to combat persistently high inflation. Although municipal bonds continued to exhibit relatively strong credit fundamentals, there were periods of spread widening during the reporting period as the market sell-off continued.

Nuveen Municipal Value Fund, Inc. (NUV)

What key strategies were used to manage the Fund during the twelve-month reporting period ended October 31, 2023?

NUV’s investment objective is to provide current income exempt from regular federal income tax, investing primarily in a portfolio of municipal obligations issued by state and local government authorities or certain U.S. territories.

During the reporting period, the Fund’s trading activity remained focused on pursuing the Fund’s investment objective. The rising yield environment during this reporting period was favorable for the Fund to reset embedded yields higher in its portfolio, primarily by executing on tax-loss swap opportunities. This strategy involves selling depreciated bonds with lower embedded yields to reinvest in similarly structured, higher income-producing bonds to support the Fund’s income earnings and capture tax efficiencies.

During the reporting period, buying was focused on longer dated, 4% and 5% coupon structures in the BBB to A rated credit quality range. Purchases were funded from the proceeds of called and maturing bonds, as well as from tax loss swapping.

As of October 31, 2023, NUV continued to use inverse floating rate securities. The Fund employs inverse floating rate securities, which are the residual interest in a tender option bond (TOB) trust, and are sometimes referred to as “inverse floaters,” for a variety of reasons, including duration management, income enhancement and total return enhancement.

How did the Fund perform during the twelve-month reporting period ended October 31, 2023?

For the twelve-month reporting period ended October 31, 2023, NUV outperformed the S&P Municipal Bond Index. For the purposes of this Performance Commentary, references to relative performance are in comparison to the S&P Municipal Bond Index.

The primary contributor to NUV’s relative performance was its overweights to A and BBB rated credit quality bonds and corresponding underweights to AAA and AA rated bonds. Security selection also contributed to the Fund’s relative performance, particularly in zero coupon bonds held over the full reporting period and a position in the Florida high speed rail, Brightline, which was still held at the end of the reporting period. Brightline’s Orlando station completed construction and opened to the public during the period while ridership growth has continued to gain momentum. In addition, the Fund benefited from an overweight allocation to the outperforming dedicated tax sector and an underweight to the life care sector, which mitigated the fund’s exposure to the sector’s downturn.

Partially offsetting the Fund’s outperformance was an underweight to the industrial development revenue (IDR) sector, which outperformed during the reporting period. Additionally, relative performance was negatively impacted by the Fund’s exposure to bonds purchased earlier in the reporting period when interest rates were lower. These bonds generally underperformed as rates rose over the remainder of the reporting period.

Nuveen AMT-Free Municipal Value Fund (NUW)

What key strategies were used to manage the Fund during the twelve-month reporting period ended October 31, 2023?

NUW’s investment objective is to provide current income exempt from regular federal income tax, investing primarily in a portfolio of municipal obligations issued by state and local government authorities or certain U.S. territories.

As of October 31, 2023, NUW continued to use inverse floating rate securities. The Fund employs inverse floating rate securities, which are the residual interest in a tender option bond (TOB) trust, and are sometimes referred to as “inverse floaters,” for a variety of reasons, including duration management, income enhancement and total return enhancement.

How did the Fund perform during the twelve-month reporting period ended October 31, 2023?

For the twelve-month reporting period ended October 31, 2023, NUW outperformed the S&P Municipal Bond Index. For the purposes of this Performance Commentary, references to relative performance are in comparison to the S&P Municipal Bond Index.

The primary contributor to NUW’s relative performance was security selection, particularly in zero coupon bonds, which recovered from lows during the period. NUW’s overall duration positioning was also favorable. The Fund’s underweight to the shortest (zero to four year) duration bonds contributed positively to relative performance earlier in the reporting period while an overweight to the longest (10 years and longer) duration bonds added value later in the period. NUW’s duration shortening hedge through interest rate futures also positively impacted relative performance over the reporting period. NUW’s credit quality positioning was advantageous, as credit spreads narrowed occasionally throughout the period. Overweight allocations to A and BBB rated bonds added to relative performance as lower rated categories outperformed the highest grade (AAA and AA rated) categories.

NUW’s outperformance was partially offset by an underweight to the “other transportation” sector, and especially New York MTA (Metropolitan Transportation Authority) bonds, both of which outperformed. Additionally, relative performance was negatively impacted by the Fund’s exposure to bonds purchased earlier in the reporting period when interest rates were lower. These bonds generally underperformed as rates rose over the remainder of the reporting period.

Nuveen Municipal Income Fund, Inc. (NMI)

What key strategies were used to manage the Fund during the twelve-month reporting period ended October 31, 2023?

NMI’s investment objective is to provide current income exempt from regular federal income tax, investing primarily in a portfolio of municipal obligations issued by state and local government authorities or certain U.S. territories.

During the reporting period, the Fund’s trading activity remained focused on pursuing the Fund’s investment objective. The rising yield environment during this reporting period was favorable for the Fund to reset embedded yields higher in its portfolio, primarily by executing on tax-loss swap opportunities. This strategy involves selling depreciated bonds with lower embedded yields to reinvest in similarly structured, higher income-producing bonds to support the Fund’s income earnings and capture tax efficiencies.

The Fund’s weighting in the pre-refunded sector declined over the reporting period, driven by bond calls and maturities. The portfolio management team reinvested the proceeds across a diverse group of sectors. Notably, NMI increased its weighting in A rated bonds and the airport sector during the reporting period. In October 2023, as a result of investment policy and other related changes, the portfolio management team increased NMI’s exposure to sub investment grade and non-rated bonds and lengthened the Fund’s duration to align it with the S&P Municipal Yield Index.

How did the Fund perform during the twelve-month reporting period ended October 31, 2023?

For the twelve-month reporting period ended October 31, 2023, NMI outperformed the NMI Linked Benchmark. For the purposes of this reporting period, references to relative performance are in comparison to the NMI Linked Benchmark, which represents the linked returns between the S&P Municipal Bond Index (through September 29, 2023) and the S&P Municipal Yield Index (subsequent to September 29, 2023).

During the first 11 months of the reporting period, the primary contributor to NMI’s relative performance versus the S&P Municipal Bond Index was its overweight to longer-duration bonds. Additional contributors during the first 11 months of the reporting period included overweights to A, BBB and BB rated bonds. The Fund also benefited from overweights to airports and toll roads, which saw traffic and travel volumes rebound to pre-pandemic levels, and underweights to state and local general obligation bonds, which helped offset the sector’s relative underperformance. In the one-month period ended October 31, 2023, NMI’s outperformance relative to the S&P Municipal Yield Index was driven by its overweight to higher rated bonds.

Market Yield is based on the Fund’s current annualized monthly dividend divided by the Fund’s current market price as of the end of the reporting period. Taxable-Equivalent Yield represents the yield that must be earned on a fully taxable investment in order to equal the yield of the Fund on an after-tax basis. It is based on a federal income tax rate of 40.8%. Your actual federal income tax rate may differ from the assumed rate. The Taxable-Equivalent Yield also takes into account the percentage of the Fund’s income generated and paid by the Fund (based on payments made during the previous calendar year) that was not exempt from federal income tax. Separately, if the comparison were instead to investments that generate qualified dividend income, which is taxable at a rate lower than an individual’s ordinary graduated tax rate, the fund’s Taxable-Equivalent Yield would be lower.

Each Fund seeks to pay regular monthly dividends out of its net investment income at a rate that reflects its past and projected net income performance. To permit each Fund to maintain a more stable monthly dividend, the Fund may pay dividends at a rate that may be more or less than the amount of net income actually earned by the Fund during the period. Distributions to common shareholders are determined on a tax basis, which may differ from amounts recorded in the accounting records. In instances where the monthly dividend exceeds the earned net investment income, the Fund would report a negative undistributed net ordinary income. Refer to the Notes to Financial Statements for additional information regarding the amounts of undistributed net ordinary income and undistributed net long-term capital gains and the character of the actual distributions paid by the Fund during the period.

All monthly dividends paid by each Fund during the current reporting period were paid from net investment income. If a portion of the Fund’s monthly distributions is sourced or comprised of elements other than net investment income, including capital gains and/ or a return of capital, shareholders will be notified of those sources. For financial reporting purposes, the per share amounts of each Fund’s distributions for the reporting period are presented in this report’s Financial Highlights. For income tax purposes, distribution information for each Fund as of its most recent tax year end is presented in the Notes to Financial Statements of this report.

Updated Distribution Policy

On October 23, 2023, the Funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”) updated each Fund’s distribution policy. Effective for distributions payable on December 1, 2023, each Fund’s distribution policy, which may be changed by the Board, 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 which may be set from time to time). The Fund intends to distribute all or substantially all of its net investment income through its regular monthly distribution and to distribute realized capital gains at least annually. In addition, in any monthly period, to maintain its declared per common share distribution amount, the Fund may distribute more or less than its net investment income during the period. In the event the Fund distributes more than its net investment income during any yearly period, such distributions may also include realized gains and/or a return of capital. To the extent that a distribution includes a return of capital the NAV per share may erode. If the Fund’s distribution includes anything other than net investment income, the Fund will provide a notice to shareholders

Report of Independent Registered

Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors/Trustees

Nuveen Municipal Value Fund, Inc., Nuveen AMT-Free Municipal Value Fund, and Nuveen Municipal Income Fund, Inc.:

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of Nuveen Municipal Value Fund, Inc., Nuveen AMT-Free Municipal Value Fund, and Nuveen Municipal Income Fund, Inc. (the Funds), including the portfolios of investments, as of October 31, 2023, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the related notes (collectively, the financial statements) and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Funds as of October 31, 2023, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Such procedures also included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2023, by correspondence with custodians and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

/s/ KPMG LLP

We have served as the auditor of one or more Nuveen investment companies since 2014.
