Note 1. Portfolio Valuation

Investments in securities that are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) are valued, except as indicated below, at the last sale price reflected at the close of the NYSE on the business day as of which such value is being determined. If there has been no sale on such day, the securities are valued at the mean of the closing bid and ask prices on such day or, if no ask price is available, at the bid price. Centrally cleared interest rate swaps are valued at the price determined by the relevant exchange or clearinghouse. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued daily at the prevailing forward exchange rate. Exchange traded options are valued at their last sale price as of the close of options trading on applicable exchanges on the valuation date. In the absence of a last sale price on such day, options are valued at the average of the quoted bid and ask prices as of the close of business. Over-the-counter (OTC) options are valued based upon prices provided by a third-party pricing service or counterparty.

Securities not listed on the NYSE but listed on other domestic or foreign securities exchanges (including NASDAQ) are valued in a similar manner. Securities traded on more than one securities exchange are valued at the last sale price reflected at the close of the exchange representing the principal market for such securities on the business day as of which such value is being determined. If after the close of a foreign market, but prior to the close of business on the day the securities are being valued, market conditions change significantly, certain non-U.S. equity holdings may be fair valued pursuant to procedures established by the Board of Directors.

Readily marketable securities traded in the OTC market, including listed securities whose primary market is believed by Cohen & Steers Capital Management, Inc. (the investment manager) to be OTC, are valued on the basis of prices provided by a third-party pricing service or third-party broker-dealers when such prices are believed by the investment manager, pursuant to delegation by the Board of Directors, to reflect the fair value of such securities.

Fixed-income securities are valued on the basis of prices provided by a third-party pricing service or third-party broker-dealers when such prices are believed by the investment manager, pursuant to delegation by the Board of Directors, to reflect the fair value of such securities. The pricing services or broker-dealers use multiple valuation techniques to determine fair value. In instances where sufficient market activity exists, the pricing services or broker-dealers may utilize a market-based approach through which quotes from market makers are used to determine fair value. In instances where sufficient market activity may not exist or is limited, the pricing services or broker-dealers also utilize proprietary valuation models which may consider market transactions in comparable securities and the various relationships between securities in determining fair value and/or characteristics such as benchmark yield curves, option-adjusted spreads, credit spreads, estimated default rates, coupon rates, anticipated timing of principal repayments, underlying collateral, and other unique security features which are then used to calculate the fair values.

Short-term debt securities with a maturity date of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Investments in open-end mutual funds are valued at net asset value (NAV).

The Fund utilizes an independent valuation services firm (the Independent Valuation Advisor) to assist the investment manager in the determination of the Funds’ fair value of private real estate investments, including those held by Cohen & Steers RQI Trust (the REIT Subsidiary), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund. While the Independent Valuation Advisor provides valuations of the real property investments, it is not responsible for, and does not calculate, the Fund’s or REIT Subsidiary’s daily NAV. The Fund’s valuation policies may change from time to time.

 

 

 


COHEN & STEERS QUALITY INCOME REALTY FUND, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

The REIT Subsidiary’s real property investments are primarily through joint ventures with an operating partner. The operating partner is responsible (subject to oversight by the investment manager) for maintaining the joint venture’s official books and records along with other pertinent information that is the basis upon which the Independent Valuation Advisor prepares their appraisals as described below.

The Independent Valuation Advisor administers the real property valuation process for investments held by the REIT Subsidiary and selects (subject to the investment manager’s approval) and manages the process associated with third-party appraisal firms with respect to the valuation of the Fund’s real property investments.

Investments in newly acquired properties are initially valued at cost. Each property will then be valued by an independent third-party appraisal firm within approximately 90 to 120 days after it was acquired and no less than annually thereafter. Each third-party appraisal is reviewed by the Independent Valuation Advisor and the Valuation Committee for reasonableness. Each month, the investment manager, with the assistance of the Independent Valuation Advisor, determines an accrual schedule for the daily value of each real property investment based on an estimated month-end income accrual for each real property. The REIT Subsidiary uses the daily values determined in such accrual schedule for purposes of calculating its NAV. Any material changes to the valuation of real property investments of the REIT Subsidiary, and related changes to the daily accrual schedule for any real property investment, are reflected in the NAV calculation beginning with the first NAV calculated after a revised valuation is determined and approved by the CNS Valuation Committee.

The investment manager monitors for material events that the investment manager believes may be expected to have a material impact on the most recent estimated fair values of such real property investment. Possible examples of such a material change include an unexpected termination or renewal of a material lease, a material change in vacancies, an unanticipated structural or environmental event at a property, capital market events, tenant bankruptcy, recent financial results or changes in the capital structure of the property, terrorism events, natural disasters or other force majeure events, any regulatory changes that affect the investment, or a significant industry event or adjustment to the industry outlook that may cause the value of real property to change materially. Upon the occurrence of such a material event that is likely to have a material impact on the most recent estimated values of the impacted real property investments and provided that the investment manager is aware that such event has occurred, the investment manager will instruct the Independent Valuation Advisor to evaluate the impact of the event on the fair value of such investment. However, rapidly changing market conditions or material events may not be immediately reflected in the Fund’s or REIT Subsidiary’s daily NAV.

The investment manager values the real properties using the valuation methodology it deems most appropriate and consistent with industry best practices and market conditions. The investment manager’s primary methodology used to value real property investments is the income approach, whereby value is derived by determining the present value of an asset’s stream of future cash flows (for example, discounted cash flow analysis). Consistent with industry practices, the income approach incorporates actual contractual lease income, professional judgments regarding comparable rental and operating expense data, the capitalization or discount rate and projections of future rent and expenses based on appropriate market evidence, and other subjective factors. Other methodologies that may also be used to value properties include, among other approaches, sales comparisons and cost approaches.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

Real estate appraisals are reported on a free and clear basis (i.e. any property-level indebtedness that may be in place is not incorporated into the valuation). Property level debt is valued separately in accordance with GAAP. Real properties held through joint ventures generally are valued in a manner that is consistent with the methods described above. Once the value of a real property held by the joint venture and the fair value of any other assets and liabilities of the joint venture is determined, the value of the REIT Subsidiary’s interest in the joint venture would then be determined by the investment manager using a hypothetical liquidation calculation to value the REIT Subsidiary’s interest in the joint venture.

The policies and procedures approved by the Fund’s Board of Directors delegate authority to make fair value determinations to the investment manager, subject to the oversight of the Board of Directors. The investment manager has established a valuation committee (Valuation Committee) to administer, implement and oversee the fair valuation process according to the policies and procedures approved annually by the Board of Directors. Among other things, these procedures allow the Fund to utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.

Securities for which market prices are unavailable, or securities for which the investment manager determines that the bid and/or ask price or a counterparty valuation does not reflect market value, will be valued at fair value, as determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee, pursuant to procedures approved by the Fund’s Board of Directors. Circumstances in which market prices may be unavailable include, but are not limited to, when trading in a security is suspended, the exchange on which the security is traded is subject to an unscheduled close or disruption or material events occur after the close of the exchange on which the security is principally traded. In these circumstances, the Fund determines fair value in a manner that fairly reflects the market value of the security on the valuation date based on consideration of any information or factors it deems appropriate. These may include, but are not limited to, recent transactions in comparable securities, information relating to the specific security and developments in the markets.

For equity securities, including restricted securities, where observable inputs are limited, assumptions about market activity and risk are used and these securities would be categorized as Level 2 or 3 in the hierarchy, depending on the relative significance of the valuation inputs. Securities, including private placements or other restricted securities, for which observable inputs are not available are valued using alternate valuation approaches, including the market approach, the income approach and cost approach, and are categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy. The market approach considers factors including the price of recent investments in the same or a similar security or financial metrics of comparable securities. The income approach considers factors including expected future cash flows, security specific risks and corresponding discount rates. The cost approach considers factors including the value of the security’s underlying assets and liabilities.

The Fund’s use of fair value pricing may cause the NAV of Fund shares to differ from the NAV that would be calculated using market quotations. Fair value pricing involves subjective judgments and it is possible that the fair value determined for a security may be materially different than the value that could be realized upon the sale of that security.

Fair value is defined as the price that the Fund would expect to receive upon the sale of an investment or expect to pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction with an independent buyer in the principal market or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the investment or liability. The hierarchy of inputs that are used in determining the fair value of the Fund’s investments is summarized below.

Note 2. Derivative Investments

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: The Fund enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts to hedge the currency exposure associated with certain of its non-U.S. dollar denominated securities. A forward foreign currency exchange contract is a commitment between two parties to purchase or sell foreign currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward foreign currency exchange contract fluctuates with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. These contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Fund as unrealized appreciation and/or depreciation on forward foreign currency exchange contracts. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are included in net realized gain or loss on forward foreign currency exchange contracts.

Forward foreign currency exchange contracts involve elements of market risk in excess of the amounts reflected on the Consolidated Schedule of Investments. The Fund bears the risk of an unfavorable change in the foreign exchange rate underlying the contract. Risks may also arise upon entering these contracts from the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. In connection with these contracts, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective contracts.

 

 

 


COHEN & STEERS QUALITY INCOME REALTY FUND, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

Option Contracts: The Fund may purchase and write exchange-listed and OTC put or call options on securities, stock indices and other financial instruments for hedging purposes, to enhance portfolio returns and/or reduce overall volatility.

When the Fund writes (sells) an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is recorded as a liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option written. When an option expires, the Fund realizes a gain on the option to the extent of the premium received. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to or offset against the proceeds or amount paid on the transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. If a put option on a security is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the security purchased by the Fund. If a call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds of the security sold to determine the realized gain or loss. The Fund, as writer of an option, bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the underlying investment. Other risks include the possibility of an illiquid options market or the inability of the counterparties to fulfill their obligations under the contracts.

Put and call options purchased are accounted for in the same manner as portfolio securities. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying investment transaction to determine the realized gain or loss when the underlying transaction is executed. The risk associated with purchasing an option is that the Fund pays a premium whether or not the option is exercised. Additionally, the Fund bears the risk of loss of the premium and change in market value should the counterparty not perform under the contract.

Centrally Cleared Interest Rate Swap Contracts: The Fund uses interest rate swaps in connection with borrowing under its credit agreement. The interest rate swaps are intended to reduce interest rate risk by countering the effect that an increase in short-term interest rates could have on the performance of the Fund’s shares as a result of the floating rate structure of interest owed pursuant to the credit agreement. When entering into interest rate swaps, the Fund agrees to pay the other party to the interest rate swap (which is known as the counterparty) a fixed rate payment in exchange for the counterparty’s agreement to pay the Fund a variable rate payment that was intended to approximate the Fund’s variable rate payment obligation on the credit agreement, the accruals for which would begin at a specific date in the future (the effective date). The payment obligation is based on the notional amount of the swap. Depending on the state of interest rates in general, the use of interest rate swaps could enhance or harm the overall performance of the Fund. Swaps are marked-to-market daily and changes in the value are recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation).

Immediately following execution of the swap agreement, the swap agreement is novated to a central counterparty (the CCP) and the Fund’s counterparty on the swap agreement becomes the CCP. The Fund is required to interface with the CCP through a broker. Upon entering into a centrally cleared swap, the Fund is required to deposit initial margin with the broker in the form of cash or securities in an amount that varies depending on the size and risk profile of the particular swap. Securities deposited as initial margin are designated on the Consolidated Schedule of Investments and cash deposited is recorded as cash collateral pledged for interest rate swap contracts. The daily change in valuation of centrally cleared swaps is recorded as a receivable or payable for variation margin on interest rate swap contracts. Any upfront payments paid or received upon entering into a swap agreement would be recorded as assets or liabilities, respectively, and amortized or accreted over the life of the swap and recorded as realized gain (loss). Payments received from or paid to the counterparty during the term of the swap agreement, or at termination, are recorded as realized gain (loss).

 

 

 


COHEN & STEERS QUALITY INCOME REALTY FUND, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

Swap agreements involve, to varying degrees, elements of market and counterparty risk, and exposure to loss in excess of the related amounts reflected on the Consolidated Schedule of Investments. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.

The following summarizes the volume of the Fund’s option contracts, interest rate swap contracts and forward foreign currency exchange contracts activity for the three months ended March 31, 2022:
