As described in the Funds prospectus, a company is considered to be a
non-U.S. issuer if the companys securities principally trade on a market outside of the United States, the company derives a majority of its revenues or profits outside of the United States, the company
is not organized in the United States, or the company is significantly exposed to the economic fortunes and risks of regions outside the United States.
|
(h) |
Senior loans (also called bank loans, leveraged loans, or floating rate loans) in which the Fund invests
generally pay interest at rates which are periodically determined by reference to a base lending rate plus a spread (unless otherwise identified, all senior loans carry a variable rate of interest). These base lending rates are generally
(i) the Prime Rate offered by one or more major United States banks, (ii) the lending rate offered by one or more European banks such as the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or (iii) the Certificate of Deposit rate.
As of June 30, 2023, the LIBOR USD 1 Month rate was 5.22%. Senior loans, while exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the 1933 Act), contain certain restrictions on resale and cannot be sold publicly.
Senior secured floating rate loans often require prepayments from excess cash flow or permit the borrower to repay at its election. The degree to which borrowers repay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election, cannot be predicted
with accuracy. As a result, the actual remaining maturity maybe substantially less than the stated maturity shown. |
(i) |
Securities exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the 1933 Act. These securities may only be resold in
transactions exempt from registration to qualified institutional buyers. The Board has determined these investments to be liquid. At June 30, 2023, these securities amounted to $11,804,696 or 4.6% of net assets. |
(j) |
Perpetual security with no stated maturity date. |
(k) |
Step Coupon Security. Coupon rate will either increase (step-up bond)
or decrease (step-down bond) at regular intervals until maturity. Interest rate shown reflects the rate currently in effect. |
(l) |

(m) |
This security was purchased with cash collateral held from securities on loan. The total value of such
securities as of June 30, 2023 was $12. |
(n) |
Rate reported is 7 day effective yield. |
(o) |

NOTES TO INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO (unaudited)
|
|
|
As of June 30, 2023 |
|
Highland Global Allocation Fund |
Organization
NexPoint Funds II (the Trust) is
a Massachusetts business trust organized on August 10, 1992. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment
company. It comprises two portfolios (collectively the Funds) that are currently being offered. This report covers information for the period ended June 30, 2023 for Highland Global Allocation Fund (the Fund). NexPoint
Climate Tech Fund is reported separately.
Valuation of Investments
Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board has designated NexPoint as the Funds valuation designee to
perform the fair valuation determination for securities and other assets held by the Fund. NexPoint acting through its Valuation Committee, is responsible for determining the fair value of investments for which market quotations are not
readily available. The Valuation Committee is comprised of officers of NexPoint and certain of NexPoints affiliated companies and determines fair value and oversees the calculation of the NAV. The Valuation Committee is subject to Board
oversight and certain reporting and other requirements intended to provide the Board the information it needs to oversee NexPoints fair value determinations. The Funds investments are recorded at fair value. In computing the Funds
net assets attributable to shares, securities with readily available market quotations on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation (NASDAQ) or other nationally
recognized exchange, use the closing quotations on the respective exchange for valuation of those securities. Securities for which there are no readily available market quotations will be valued pursuant to policies established by NexPoint and
approved by the Funds Board. Typically, such securities will be valued at the mean between the most recently quoted bid and ask prices provided by the principal market makers. If there is more than one such principal market maker, the value
shall be the average of such means. Securities without a sale price or quotations from principal market makers on the valuation day may be priced by an independent pricing service. Generally, the Funds loan and bond positions are not traded on
exchanges and consequently are valued based on a mean of the bid and ask price from the third-party pricing services or broker-dealer sources that the Investment Adviser has determined to have the capability to provide appropriate pricing services.
Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or for which the Fund has determined that the price received from a pricing service or
broker-dealer is stale or otherwise does not represent fair value (such as when events materially affecting the value of securities occur between the time when market price is determined and calculation of the Funds NAV) will be
valued by the Fund at fair value, as determined by the Board or its designee in good faith in accordance with procedures approved by the Board, taking into account factors reasonably determined to be relevant including: (i) the fundamental
analytical data relating to the investment; (ii) the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition of the securities; and (iii) an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which these securities are purchased and sold. In
these cases, the Funds NAV will reflect the affected portfolio securities fair value as determined in the judgment of the Board or its designee instead of being determined by the market. Using a fair value pricing methodology to value
securities may result in a value that is different from a securitys most recent sale price and from the prices used by other investment companies to calculate their NAVs. Determination of fair value is uncertain because it involves subjective
judgments and estimates.
There can be no assurance that the Funds valuation of a security will not differ from the amount that it realizes upon the
sale of such security. Those differences could have a material impact to the Fund.
Fair Value Measurements
The Fund has performed an analysis of all existing investments and derivative instruments to determine the significance and character of inputs to their fair
value determination. The levels of fair value inputs used to measure the Funds investments are characterized into a fair value hierarchy. Where inputs for an asset or liability fall into more than one level in the fair value hierarchy, the
investment is classified in its entirety based on the lowest level input that is significant to that investments valuation. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 Quoted unadjusted prices for identical instruments in active markets to which the Fund has access at the date of measurement;
NOTES TO INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO (unaudited) (continued)
|
|
|
As of June 30, 2023 |
|
Highland Global Allocation Fund |
Level 2 Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or
similar instruments in markets that are not active, but are valued based on executed trades; broker quotations that constitute an executable price; and alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified within Level 2.
Level 2 inputs are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset in connection with market data at the measurement date; and
Level 3
Model derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. In certain cases, investments classified within Level 3 may include securities for which the Fund has obtained indicative
quotes from broker-dealers that do not necessarily represent prices the broker may be willing to trade on, as such quotes can be subject to material management judgment. Unobservable inputs are those inputs that reflect the Funds own
assumptions that market participants would use to price the asset or liability based on the best available information.
The Investment Adviser has
established policies and procedures, as described above and approved by the Board, to ensure that valuation methodologies for investments and financial instruments that are categorized within all levels of the fair value hierarchy are fair and
consistent. A Valuation Committee has been established to provide oversight of the valuation policies, processes and procedures, and is comprised of personnel from the Investment Adviser and its affiliates. The Valuation Committee meets monthly to
review the proposed valuations for investments and financial instruments and is responsible for evaluating the overall fairness and consistent application of established policies.
The fair value of the Funds loans, bonds and asset-backed securities are generally based on quotes received from brokers or independent pricing
services. Loans, bonds and asset-backed securities with quotes that are based on actual trades with a sufficient level of activity on or near the measurement date are classified as Level 2 assets. Senior loans, bonds and asset-backed securities
that are priced using quotes derived from implied values, indicative bids, or a limited number of actual trades are classified as Level 3 assets because the inputs used by the brokers and pricing services to derive the values are not readily
observable.
The fair value of the Funds common stocks, exchange traded funds, rights and warrants that are not actively traded on national
exchanges are generally priced using quotes derived from implied values, indicative bids, or a limited amount of actual trades and are classified as Level 3 assets because the inputs used by the brokers and pricing services to derive the values
are not readily observable. Exchange-traded options are valued based on the last trade price on the primary exchange on which they trade. If an option does not trade, the mid-price, which is the mean of the
bid and ask price, is utilized to value the option.
At the end of each calendar quarter, the Investment Adviser evaluates the Level 2 and 3 assets
and liabilities for changes in liquidity, including but not limited to: whether a broker is willing to execute at the quoted price, the depth and consistency of prices from third party services, and the existence of contemporaneous, observable
trades in the market. Additionally, the Investment Adviser evaluates the Level 1 and 2 assets and liabilities on a quarterly basis for changes in listings or delistings on national exchanges.
Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the
Funds investments may fluctuate from period to period. Additionally, the fair value of investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investments and may differ materially
from the values the Fund may ultimately realize. Further, such investments may be subject to legal and other restrictions on resale or otherwise less liquid than publicly traded securities.
