ANNUAL REPORT |
FEBRUARY 28, 2011 |
|
|
|
Over the past 12 months, we have seen a sluggish, stimulus-driven economic recovery at long last gain real traction, accelerate, and transition into a consumption-driven expansion. For the most part, 2010 was plagued with widely fluctuating economic data, but as the year drew to a close, it became clear that cyclical stimulus had beaten out structural problems as economic data releases generally became more positive and financial markets showed signs of continuing improvement. Although the sovereign debt crises and emerging market inflation that troubled the global economy in 2010 remain a challenge, overall investor sentiment considerably improved. Near the end of the period, geopolitical tensions across the Middle East North Africa (MENA) region along with rising oil prices introduced new cause for concern about the future of the global economy. As of this writing, economic news remains fairly positive although we face additional uncertainties related to the aftermath of the devastating earthquake in Japan, with particular focus on the damage to nuclear power plants.
In the United States, strength from the corporate sector and increasing consumer spending have been key drivers of economic growth, while the housing and labor markets have been the heaviest burdens. While housing has yet to show any meaningful sign of improvement, labor statistics have delivered a mixed bag month after month, but became increasingly encouraging toward the end of the period when the unemployment rate fell to its lowest level since April 2009.
Global equity markets experienced uneven growth and high volatility over the course of 2010, but ended the year strong. Following a strong start to 2011, stocks lost their momentum on the back of geopolitical events in the MENA region and a sharp rise in oil prices. Overall, equities posted strong returns for the 12-month period. US stocks outpaced most international markets and small cap stocks outperformed large caps as investors moved into higher-risk assets.
Fixed income markets saw yields trend lower over most of 2010, until the fourth quarter brought an abrupt reversal in sentiment and risk tolerance that drove yields sharply upward (pushing bond prices down) through year end. Improving economic data continued to pressure fixed income yields in 2011; however, escalating geopolitical risks have acted as a counterweight, restoring relative stability to yield movements. Nevertheless, the yield curve remained steep and higher-risk sectors outperformed the fixed income market.
The tax-exempt municipal market enjoyed a powerful rally during the period of low interest rates in 2010; however, when the yield trend reversed, the market was dealt an additional blow as it became evident that the Build America Bond program would expire at year end. In addition, negative headlines regarding fiscal challenges faced by state and local governments damaged investor confidence and further heightened volatility in the municipal market. Tax-exempt mutual funds experienced heavy outflows, resulting in wider quality spreads and further downward pressure on municipal bond prices. These headwinds began to abate as the period came to a close and municipals finally posted gains in February, following a five-month run of negative performance.
Cash investments, as represented by the 3-month Treasury bill, returned only a fraction over 0% for the 12-month period as short-term interest rates remained low. Yields on money market securities remain near all-time lows.

BlackRock Corporate High Yield Fund, Inc. |
|
|
Investment Objective |
|
BlackRock Corporate High Yield Fund, Inc.s (COY) (the Fund) investment objective is to provide shareholders with current income by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of fixed income securities, which are rated in the lower rating categories of the established rating services (BB or lower by Standard & Poors Corporation (S&P) or Ba or lower by Moodys Investors Service, Inc. (Moodys)) or are unrated securities considered by BlackRock to be of comparable quality. The Funds secondary objective is to provide stockholders with capital appreciation. The Fund invests, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in high yield debt instruments, including high yield bonds (commonly referred to as junk bonds) and corporate loans which are below investment grade quality. The Fund may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives.
No assurance can be given that the Funds investment objectives will be achieved.

Portfolio Management Commentary |
|
|
|
|
How did the Fund perform? |
|
|
|
For the 12 months ended February 28, 2011, the Fund returned 11.66% based on market price and 22.11% based on net asset value (NAV). For the same period, the closed-end Lipper High Current Yield Funds (Leveraged) category posted an average return of 21.06% based on market price and 21.40% based on NAV. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Fund moved from a premium to NAV to a discount by period end, which accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV. |
|
|
|
What factors influenced performance? |
|
|
|
High yield bonds outperformed the broader fixed income market as risk assets rallied during the period. Lower-quality high yield bonds outperformed higher-quality issues. The bank loan sector also posted strong returns, but underperformed high yield. The largest contributor to the Funds performance was individual security selection, particularly among lower-quality credits and special situations in the automotive sector, including manufacturers of automobiles, auto parts and components. Within the Funds small allocation to common stocks, its holdings in Delphi boosted returns. The Funds limited exposure to high-quality, non-investment grade proved beneficial, as did its large allocation to lower-quality credits later in the period. |
|
|
|
During the period, the Fund maintained leverage at an average amount between 18% and 20% of its total managed assets, which detracted from relative performance versus competitors that maintained higher levels of leverage, as would be expected when markets are advancing. The Funds significant holdings in mid-tier speculative grade names for most of the period detracted modestly as they underperformed their lower-quality counterparts. Also having a negative impact was the Funds exposure to bank loans; however, the Fund continues to hold a number of loans issued by speculative companies where we believe the loans are the most attractive instrument in the companys capital structure. |
|
|
|
Describe recent portfolio activity. |
|
|
|
Over the period, the Fund shifted its overall positioning from a more conservative stance to that which is more consistent with a gradually improving economy. The Fund reduced its exposure to the automotive sector and increased exposure to lower-quality credits as well as sectors where companies are positioned to benefit from rising commodity prices. |
|
|
|
Describe portfolio positioning at period end. |
|
|
|
At period end, the Fund held 85% of its total portfolio in corporate bonds, 7% in floating rate loan interests and 5% in common stocks. Cash positions were negligible for most of the period. The Fund ended the period with leverage at approximately 20% of its total managed assets. |

How did the Fund perform? |
|
|
|
For the 12 months ended February 28, 2011, the Fund returned 12.90% based on market price and 19.92% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper High Current Yield Funds (Leveraged) category posted an average return of 21.06% based on market price and 21.40% based on NAV. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Fund moved from a premium to NAV to a discount by period end, which accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV. |

|
|
|
High yield bonds outperformed the broader fixed income market as risk assets rallied during the period. Lower-quality high yield bonds outperformed higher-quality issues. The bank loan sector also posted strong returns, but underperformed high yield. While the Funds average allocation of 41% to high yield contributed to performance on an absolute basis, its average allocation of 52% to bank loans hurt performance relative to its Lipper category competitors, which invest primarily in high yield bonds. Additionally, the Fund maintained leverage at an average amount between 18% and 23% of its total managed assets, which detracted from relative performance versus competitors that maintained higher levels of leverage, as would be expected when markets are advancing. Lastly, the Funds underexposure to lower-quality, speculative grade credits detracted modestly from performance as lower quality outperformed during the period. |
|
|
|
Contributing positively to performance was security selection within the Funds high yield allocation, particularly among lower-quality credits and special situations in the automotive sector, including manufacturers of automobiles, auto parts and components. The Funds equity position, although small, boosted returns. In addition, limited exposure to high-quality, non-investment grade proved beneficial. |
|
|
|
Describe recent portfolio activity. |
|
|
|
Over the period, the Fund shifted its overall positioning from a more conservative stance to that which is more consistent with a gradually improving economy. In particular, the Fund increased its exposure to sectors where companies are positioned to benefit from rising commodity prices. In addition, the Fund increased its leverage during the period. |
|
|
|
Describe portfolio positioning at period end. |
|
|
|
At period end, the Fund held 43% of its total portfolio in corporate bonds, 53% in floating rate loan interests and 2% in asset-backed securities. Cash positions were negligible for most of the period. The Fund ended the period with leverage at approximately 20% of its total managed assets. |

Fund Summary as of February 28, 2011 |
BlackRock Floating Rate Income Strategies Fund II, Inc. |
|
|
Investment Objective |
|
BlackRock Floating Rate Income Strategies Fund II, Inc.s (FRB) (the Fund) investment objective is to provide shareholders with high current income and such preservation of capital as is consistent with investment in a diversified, leveraged portfolio consisting primarily of floating rate debt securities and instruments. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in floating rate debt securities, including floating or variable rate debt securities that pay interest at rates that adjust whenever a specified interest rate changes and/or which reset on predetermined dates (such as the last day of a month or calendar quarter). The Fund invests a substantial portion of its investments in floating rate debt securities consisting of secured or unsecured senior floating rate loans that are rated below investment grade. The Fund may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives.
|
|
|
No assurance can be given that the Funds investment objective will be achieved. |

Portfolio Management Commentary |
|
|
|
|
How did the Fund perform? |
|
|
|
For the 12 months ended February 28, 2011, the Fund returned 1.19% based on market price and 14.20% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper Loan Participation Funds category posted an average return of 16.47% based on market price and 12.22% based on NAV. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Funds premium to NAV, which narrowed during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV. |
|
|
|
What factors influenced performance? |
|
|
|
The bank loan sector posted strong returns as risk assets rallied during the period. Lower-quality sectors and credits outperformed their higher-quality counterparts and the high yield sector outperformed bank loans. Because the Fund invests primarily in bank loans, the use of leverage had a positive impact on returns (on an absolute basis) as these sectors advanced. Holding a greater allocation to high yield bonds relative to its Lipper category competitors drove the Funds outperformance. |
|
|
|
The Fund maintains a relatively conservative portfolio, weighted toward higher-quality speculative investments, which detracted from relative performance as lower quality outperformed during the period. In addition, the Fund maintains a lower level of leverage (at an average amount between 19% and 23% of its total managed assets) than the average level maintained by its Lipper category competitors, which detracted from performance on a relative basis. |
|
|
|
Describe recent portfolio activity. |
|
|
|
During the period, the Fund modestly increased its level of risk and use of leverage as market conditions improved. In particular, the Fund increased exposure to lower-quality credits and sectors that are more favorably impacted by rising commodity prices and an improving economy. |
|
|
|
Describe portfolio positioning at period end. |
|
|
|
At period end, the Fund held 81% of its total portfolio in floating rate loan interests and 15% in corporate bonds, with the remainder in asset-backed securities, common stocks and equity equivalents. Cash positions were negligible for most of the period. The Fund ended the period with leverage at approximately 20% of its total managed assets. |

How did the Fund perform? |
|
|
|
For the 12 months ended February 28, 2011, the Fund returned 15.13% based on market price and 17.13% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper High Current Yield Funds (Leveraged) category posted an average return of 21.06% based on market price and 21.40% based on NAV. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Fund moved from a premium to NAV to a discount by period end, which accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV. |
|
|
|
What factors influenced performance? |
|
|
|
High yield bonds outperformed the broader fixed income market as risk assets rallied during the period. Lower-quality high yield bonds outperformed higher-quality issues. The bank loan sector also posted strong returns, but underperformed high yield. While the Funds average allocation to high yield contributed to performance on an absolute basis, its average allocation to bank loans hurt performance relative to its Lipper category competitors, which invest primarily in high yield bonds. Additionally, the Fund maintained leverage at an average amount between 18% and 22% of its total managed assets, which detracted from relative performance versus competitors that maintained higher levels of leverage, as would be expected when markets are advancing. Lastly, the Funds underexposure to lower-quality, speculative grade credits detracted modestly from performance as lower quality outperformed during the period. |

ANNUAL REPORT |
FEBRUARY 28, 2011 |
13 |
|
|
|
The Funds may utilize leverage to seek to enhance the yield and NAV. However, these objectives cannot be achieved in all interest rate environments.
The Funds may utilize leverage by borrowing through a credit facility. In general, the concept of leveraging is based on the premise that the financing cost of assets to be obtained from leverage, which will be based on short-term interest rates, will normally be lower than the income earned by each Fund on its longer-term portfolio investments. To the extent that the total assets of each Fund (including the assets obtained from leverage) are invested in higher-yielding portfolio investments, each Funds shareholders will benefit from the incremental net income.
The interest earned on securities purchased with the proceeds from leverage is paid to shareholders in the form of dividends, and the value of these portfolio holdings is reflected in the per share NAV. However, in order to benefit shareholders, the yield curve must be positively sloped; that is, short-term interest rates must be lower than long-term interest rates. If the yield curve becomes negatively sloped, meaning short-term interest rates exceed long-term interest rates, income to shareholders will be lower than if the Funds had not used leverage.
To illustrate these concepts, assume a Funds capitalization is $100 million and it issues debt securities for an additional $30 million, creating a total value of $130 million available for investment in long-term securities. If prevailing short-term interest rates are 3% and long-term interest rates are 6%, the yield curve has a strongly positive slope. In this case, the Fund pays interest expense on the $30 million of debt securities based on the lower short-term interest rates. At the same time, the securities purchased by the Fund with assets received from borrowings earn income based on long-term interest rates. In this case, the interest expense of borrowings is significantly lower than the income earned on the Funds long-term investments, and therefore the shareholders are the beneficiaries of the incremental net income.
If short-term interest rates rise, narrowing the differential between short-term and long-term interest rates, the incremental net income pickup will be reduced or eliminated completely. Furthermore, if prevailing short-term interest rates rise above long-term interest rates of 6%, the yield curve has a negative slope. In this case, the Fund pays interest expense on the higher short-term interest rates whereas the Funds total portfolio earns income based on lower long-term interest rates.
Furthermore, the value of the Funds portfolio investments generally varies inversely with the direction of long-term interest rates, although other factors can influence the value of portfolio investments. In contrast, the redemption value of the Funds borrowings does not fluctuate in relation to interest rates. As a result, changes in interest rates can influence the Funds NAV positively or negatively in addition to the impact on Fund performance from leverage from borrowings discussed above.
The use of leverage may enhance opportunities for increased income to the Funds and shareholders, but as described above, it also creates risks as short or long-term interest rates fluctuate. Leverage also will generally cause greater changes in the Funds NAVs, market prices and dividend rates than comparable portfolios without leverage. If the income derived from securities purchased with assets received from leverage exceeds the cost of leverage, the Funds net income will be greater than if leverage had not been used. Conversely, if the income from the securities purchased is not sufficient to cover the cost of leverage, the Funds net income will be less than if leverage had not been used, and therefore the amount available for distribution to shareholders will be reduced. Each Fund may be required to sell portfolio securities at inopportune times or at distressed values in order to comply with regulatory requirements applicable to the use of leverage or as required by the terms of leverage instruments, which may cause a Fund to incur losses. The use of leverage may limit the Funds ability to invest in certain types of securities or use certain types of hedging strategies. Each Fund will incur expenses in connection with the use of leverage, all of which are borne by shareholders and may reduce income.
Under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Funds are permitted to borrow through their credit facility up to 331/3% of their total managed assets. As of February 28, 2011, the Funds had outstanding leverage from borrowings as a percentage of their total managed assets as follows:

The Funds may invest in various derivative instruments, including financial futures contracts, swaps, foreign currency exchange contracts and options, as specified in Note 2 of the Notes to Financial Statements, which may constitute forms of economic leverage. Such instruments are used to obtain exposure to a market without owning or taking physical custody of securities or to hedge market, equity, credit and/or foreign currency exchange rate risks. Such derivative instruments involve risks, including the imperfect correlation between the value of a derivative instrument and the underlying asset, possible default of the counterparty to the transaction or illiquidity of the derivative instrument. The Funds ability to use a derivative instrument
successfully depends on the investment advisors ability to predict pertinent market movements accurately, which cannot be assured. The use of derivative instruments may result in losses greater than if they had not been used, may require a Fund to sell or purchase portfolio investments at inopportune times or for distressed values, may limit the amount of appreciation a Fund can realize on an investment, may result in lower dividends paid to shareholders or may cause a Fund to hold an investment that it might otherwise sell. The Funds investments in these instruments are discussed in detail in the Notes to Financial Statements.

Fair Value Measurements Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments and derivatives. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes as follows: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Level 1 price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets and liabilities |
|
|
|
|
|
Level 2 other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs) |
|
|
|
|
|
Level 3 unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Funds own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments and derivatives) |
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Funds policy regarding valuation of investments and derivatives and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements.
