Past performance is not a reliable indicator or guarantee of future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. Returns shown include the reinvestment of all distributions. Returns shown at net asset value do not reflect the current maximum sales charge, had the sales charge been included, returns would have been lower. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that shares, on any given day or when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost.

Ratings provided by Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s, and Fitch. Where the rating agencies rate a security differently, Lord Abbett uses the higher credit rating.Ratings range from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Bonds rated BBB or above are considered investment grade. Credit ratings BB and below are lower-rated securities (junk bonds). High-yielding, non investment grade bonds (junk bonds) involve higher risks than investment grade bonds. Adverse conditions may affect the issuer's ability to pay interest and principal on these securities. A portion of the portfolio's securities are not rated. Breakdown is not an S&P credit rating or an opinion of S&P as to the creditworthiness of such portfolio. Ratings apply to the credit worthiness of the issuers of the underlying securities and not the fund or its shares. Ratings may be subject to change.

The 30-Day Standardized Yield represents net investment income earned by a fund over a 30-day period. It is expressed as an annual percentage rate using a method of calculation adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Yields for other share classes will vary.

Average Yield to Worst is a measure of the lowest possible yield that can be received on a bond with an early retirement provision.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

A Note about Risk: The Fund invests a significant percentage of its assets in the securities of a single state. As a result, an investment in the Fund may be riskier than an investment in other, more diversified municipal bond funds. The value of an investment in the fund will change as interest rates fluctuate in response to market movements. When interest rates rise, the prices of debt securities are likely to decline, and when interest rates fall, the price of debt securities tend to rise. High-yield securities, sometimes called "junk bonds" carry increased risks of price volatility, illiquidity, and the possibility of default in the timely payment of interest and principal. A portion of the income derived from the Fund's portfolio may be subject to the alternative minimum tax. Any capital gains realized may be subject to taxation. Federal, state, and local taxes may apply. There is a risk that a bond issued as tax-exempt may be reclassified by the IRS as taxable, creating taxable rather than tax-exempt income. The Fund may invest in bonds of issuers in Puerto Rico and other U.S. territories, commonwealths, and possessions, and may be affected by local, state, and regional factors. These may include, for example, economic or political developments, erosion of the tax base, and the possibility of credit problems. These factors can affect Fund performance.

Performance data quoted is historical. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance quoted. The investment return and principal value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that shares, on any given day or when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. To obtain performance data current to the most recent quarter-end, go to quarter ending performance on our Website or call Lord Abbett at (888) 522-2388.

With Sales Charge - Returns with sales charges reflect applicable fees and expenses and include all distributions reinvested.

Without Sales Charge - Returns shown are without sales charges and have all distributions reinvested. If a sales charge had been deducted, the results would have been lower.

Returns shown at less than a year reflect aggregate total returns.

Double-Digit Returns - instances of high double-digit returns were achieved primarily during favorable market conditions and may not be sustainable over time.

The Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index a rules-based, market-value-weighted index engineered for the long-term tax-exempt bond market. Bonds must be rated investment-grade (Baa3/BBB- or higher) by at least two ratings agencies. They must have an outstanding par value of at least $7 million and be issued as part of a transaction of at least $75 million. The bonds must be fixed rate, have a dated-date after December 31, 1990, and must be at least one year from their maturity date.

Indexes reflect total return, unless otherwise specified, with all dividends reinvested. Indexes are unmanaged, do not reflect the deduction of fees or expenses, and are not available for direct investment.

Lipper Category Average - Peer group averages are based on universes of funds with the same investment objectives. The average return for the peer group is based on the returns of each individual fund within the group for the period shown. This average assumes reinvestment of dividends.

Fund Expense Ratio Detail: Reflects expenses for the Fund's fiscal year-end and is subject to change. Fund expenses may fluctuate with market volatility. A substantial reduction in Fund assets (since its most recently completed fiscal year), whether caused by market conditions or significant redemptions or both, will likely cause total operating expenses (as a percentage of Fund assets) to become higher than those shown.

The net expense ratio takes into account contractual fee waivers/expense reimbursements that currently are scheduled to remain in place through 01/31/2026. For periods when fees and expenses were waived and/or reimbursed, the Fund benefited by not bearing such expenses. Without such fee waivers/reimbursements, performance would have been lower. In addition, the net expense ratio takes into account deductions for certain interest and related expenses from certain of the Fund's investments. Under accounting rules, the Fund recognized additional income in an amount that directly offsets these interest and related expenses. Therefore, the Fund's total returns and net asset value were not affected by such interest and related expenses.

The Fund's portfolio is actively managed and portfolio characteristics, such as individual holdings and sector weightings may change significantly over time. The portfolio data is for information only. It does not constitute a recommendation or an offer for a particular security or fund, nor should it be taken as a solicitation or recommendation to buy or sell securities or other investments.

About Barron's Best Fund Families
Source: Barron's, "Best Fund Families of 2024." February 27, 2025. Used with permission. ©2025 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.

The 2024 Barron’s Best Fund Families List ranks the active management ability of qualifying companies. Rankings are based on the asset-weighted one-year returns as of 12/31/24, excluding 12b-1 fees and sales loads, of a company’s actively managed fund line up in five asset class categories: US Equity, World Equity, Mixed Asset, Taxable Bond, and Tax-Exempt Bond as determined by Barron’s. Overall ranking based on aggregate, weighted score across the five asset categories. Performance data from Refinitiv Lipper.

Past performance does not guarantee future results. Lord Abbett ranked overall #1 of 48, #6 of 46, and #23 of 46 for the 1- ,5-, and 10-year periods respectively. Lord Abbett ranked #1 of 48 in US Equity, #2 of 48 in Mixed Asset, #2 of 48 in Taxable Bond, and #5 of 48 in Tax-Exempt Bond.

How We Ranked the Fund Families
In ranking mutual and exchange-traded funds, our aim is to measure manager skill, independent of expenses beyond annual management fees. That is why we calculate returns before any 12b-1 fees are deducted. Similarly, fund loads, or sales charges, aren’t included in our calculation of returns.

Each fund’s performance is measured against all of the other funds in its LSEG Lipper category, with a percentile ranking of 100 being the highest and one the lowest. This result is then weighted by asset size relative to the fund family’s other assets in its general classification. If a family’s biggest funds do well, that boosts its overall ranking, and vice versa.

To be included in the ranking, a firm must have at least three funds in the general equity category, one in world equity, one in mixed equity such as a balanced or target-date fund, two taxable bond funds, and one national tax-exempt bond fund.

Single-sector and country equity funds are factored into the rankings as general equity. We exclude all index funds, but include actively managed ETFs and so-called smart-beta ETFs, which are passively managed but created from active strategies.

Finally, the score is multiplied by the weighting of its general classification, as determined by the Lipper universe of funds. The category weightings for 2024 were general equity, 39.1%; mixed asset, 21.6%; world equity, 15.3%; taxable bond,20.1%; and tax-exempt bond, 3.9%.

The category weightings for the five-year results were general equity, 39%; mixed asset, 21.7%; world equity, 15.3%; taxable bond, 19.9%; and tax-exempt bond, 4%.For the 10-year list, they were general equity, 40%; mixed asset, 22.1%; world equity, 14.8%; taxable bond, 19.2%; and tax[1]exempt bond, 3.9%. The weightings may not total 100 due to rounding.

How the scoring works: Say a fund in the general U.S. equity category has $500million in assets, accounting for half of the firm’s assets in that category, and its performance lands it in the 75th percentile for the category. The first calculation would be 75 times 0.5, which comes to 37.5. That score is then multiplied by 39.1%, general equity’s overall weighting in Lipper’s universe. So, it would be 37.5 times0.391, which equals 14.66. Similar calculations are done for each fund in our study; then the numbers are added for each category and overall. The shop with the highest total score wins. The same process is repeated to determine the five- and 10-year rankings.
