In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820 "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" ("ASC 820"), all investments held by each of Neuberger Berman California Intermediate Municipal Fund Inc. ("California"), Neuberger Berman Intermediate Municipal Fund Inc. ("Intermediate"), and Neuberger Berman New York Intermediate Municipal Fund Inc. ("New York") (each individually a "Fund," and collectively, the "Funds") are carried at the value that Neuberger Berman Management LLC ("Management") believes a fund would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment under current market conditions. Various inputs, including the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability in the market, are considered in valuing the Funds' investments, some of which are discussed below. Significant management judgment may be necessary to value investments in accordance with ASC 820.
|
||
ASC 820 established a three-tier hierarchy of inputs to create a classification of value measurements for disclosure purposes. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below.
|
|||
●
|
Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
|
||
●
|
Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, amortized cost, etc.)
|
||
●
|
Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
|
||
The inputs or methodology used for valuing an investment are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
|
|||
The value of the Funds' investments in municipal securities is determined by Management primarily by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services based on readily available bid quotations, or if quotations are not available, by methods which include various considerations such as yields or prices of securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type; indications as to values from dealers; and general market conditions (generally Level 2 inputs). Other Level 2 inputs used by an independent pricing service to value municipal securities include current trades, bid-wanted lists (which informs the market that a holder is interested in selling a position and that offers will be considered), offerings, general information on market movement, direction, trends, and specific data on specialty issues.
|
|||
Management has developed a process to periodically review information provided by independent pricing services for all types of securities.
|
|||
If a valuation is not available from an independent pricing service, or if Management has reason to believe that the valuation received does not represent the amount a Fund might reasonably expect to receive on a current sale in an orderly transaction, the applicable Fund seeks to obtain quotations from principal market makers (generally considered Level 3 inputs). If such quotations are not readily available, the security is valued using methods the Fund's Board of Directors (each Fund's Board of Directors, a "Board") has approved on the belief that they reflect fair value. Numerous factors may be considered when determining the fair value of a security based on Level 2 or 3 inputs, including available analyst, media or other reports, trading in futures or ADRs and whether the issuer of the security being fair valued has other securities outstanding. These fair value prices are necessarily estimates, and there is no assurance that such a price will be at or close to the price at which the security is next quoted or next trades.

General: The Funds were organized as Maryland corporations on July 29, 2002. California and New York are registered as non-diversified, closed-end management investment companies and Intermediate is registered as a diversified, closed-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). Each Fund's Board may classify or re-classify any unissued shares of capital stock into one or more classes of preferred stock without the approval of shareholders.
|
The assets of each Fund belong only to that Fund, and the liabilities of each Fund are borne solely by that Fund and no other.
|
|
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires Management to make estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
|
|
2
|
Portfolio valuation: Investment securities are valued as indicated in the notes following the Funds' Schedule of Investments.
|
3
|
Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on trade date for financial reporting purposes. Interest income, including accretion of discount (adjusted for original issue discount, where applicable) and amortization of premium, where applicable, is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are recorded on the basis of identified cost and stated separately in the Statements of Operations.
|
4
|
Income tax information: It is the policy of each Fund to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the requirements of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its earnings to its shareholders. To the extent a Fund distributes substantially all of its earnings to shareholders, no federal income or excise tax provision is required.
|
The Funds have adopted the provisions of ASC 740 "Income Taxes" ("ASC 740"). ASC 740 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of a tax position taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax positions as an income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. The Funds are subject to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities for returns filed for the prior three fiscal years 2007 - 2009. As of April 30, 2011, the Funds did not have any unrecognized tax positions.
|
|
Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities held by each Fund, timing differences and differing characterization of distributions made by each Fund as a whole.
|
|
As determined on October 31, 2010, there were no permanent differences resulting from different book and tax accounting reclassified at fiscal year-end.
|
The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended October 31, 2010 and October 31, 2009 was as follows:

The differences between book basis and tax basis distributable earnings is attributable primarily to timing differences of distribution payments, capital loss carryforwards and for Intermediate and New York, defaulted bond income adjustments.
|
|
To the extent each Fund's net realized capital gains, if any, can be offset by capital loss carryforwards, it is the policy of each Fund not to distribute such gains. Under current tax law, the use of a fund's capital loss carryforwards to offset future gains may be limited. As determined at October 31, 2010, each Fund had unused capital loss carryforwards available for federal income tax purposes to offset net realized capital gains, if any, as follows:

Distributions to common shareholders: Each Fund earns income, net of expenses, daily on its investments. It is the policy of each Fund to declare and pay monthly distributions to common shareholders. Distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are normally distributed in December. Distributions to common shareholders are recorded on the ex-date. Distributions to preferred shareholders are accrued and determined as described in Note A-7.
|
On May 16, 2011, each Fund declared a monthly distribution to common shareholders payable June 15, 2011, to shareholders of record on May 31, 2011, with an ex-date of May 26, 2011 as follows:

Expense allocation: Certain expenses are applicable to multiple funds. Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged to that Fund. Expenses borne by the complex of related investment companies, which includes open-end and closed-end investment companies for which Management serves as investment manager, that are not directly attributable to a particular investment company (e.g., a Fund) are allocated among the Funds and the other investment companies in the complex or series thereof on the basis of relative net assets, except where a more appropriate allocation of expenses to each of the investment companies in the complex or series thereof can otherwise be made fairly.
|

|
Financial leverage: On October 21, 2002, the Funds re-classified unissued shares of capital stock into several series of Auction Market Preferred Shares ("AMPS"), as follows:
|
Series A Shares
|
Series B Shares
|

|
All shares of each series of AMPS have a liquidation preference of $25,000 per share plus any accumulated unpaid distributions, whether or not earned or declared by a Fund, but excluding interest thereon ("Liquidation Value"). Distributions to AMPS shareholders, which are cumulative, are accrued daily. It is the policy of each Fund to pay distributions every 7 days for each Fund's AMPS Series A and every 28 days for each Fund's AMPS Series B, unless in a special rate period.
|
In the absence of a special rate period, distribution rates are reset every 7 days for each Fund's AMPS Series A, based on the results of an auction. For the six months ended April 30, 2011, distribution rates ranged from:
|
Distribution Rate

|
0.37% – 0.50%
|
||
Intermediate
|
0.37% – 0.50%
|
||
New York
|

|
In the absence of a special rate period, distribution rates are reset every 28 days for each Fund's AMPS Series B, based on the results of an auction. For the six months ended April 30, 2011, distribution rates ranged from:
|
Distribution Rate

|
||
Intermediate
|
0.38% – 0.50%
|
||

|

|
The Funds declared distributions to AMPS shareholders for the period May 1, 2011 to May 31, 2011 for each series of the AMPS as follows:
|

|

|
Since February 2008, the market for auction rate preferred securities has experienced an unprecedented number of failed auctions. In the Funds' regularly scheduled auctions, more AMPS were submitted for sale than there were offers to buy. This meant that these auctions "failed to clear," and that preferred shareholders who wanted to sell their AMPS in these auctions were unable to do so. When a failed auction of AMPS occurs, the distribution rate for AMPS resets to a maximum rate, which is 110% of the base rate (the base rate is the greater of an "AA" rated composite commercial paper rate or the taxable equivalent of a short-term municipal bond rate) as a result of the failed auctions. Although the failed auctions have resulted in a current lack of liquidity for preferred shareholders, they are not an event of default for the Funds nor have they affected the credit quality of the AMPS. The Funds have paid, and continue to pay, distributions on their AMPS that are set at the maximum rate as a result of the failed auctions. If auctions continue to fail and the maximum rate increases due to changes in short term interest rates, the Funds' returns for common shareholders could be adversely affected. The Funds continue to monitor the developments in the AMPS market.
|
|
The Funds may redeem shares of each series of AMPS, in whole or in part, on the second business day preceding any distribution payment date at Liquidation Value.
|
|
The Funds are also subject to certain restrictions relating to the AMPS. Failure to comply with these restrictions could preclude the Funds from declaring any distributions to common shareholders or repurchasing common shares and/or could trigger the mandatory redemption of AMPS at Liquidation Value.
|
|
The holders of AMPS are entitled to one vote per share and will vote with holders of common shares as a single class, except that the AMPS will vote separately as a class on certain matters, as required by law or a Fund's charter. The holders of a Fund's AMPS, voting as a separate class, are entitled at all times to elect two Directors of the Fund, and to elect a majority of the Directors of the Fund if the Fund fails to pay distributions on AMPS for two consecutive years.
|
|
8
|
Concentration of risk: The ability of the issuers of the debt securities held by the Funds to meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments, including those particular to a specific industry or region. California
|
and New York normally invest substantially all of their assets in municipal bonds of issuers located in the state of California and the state of New York, respectively. The value of each of these Funds' securities are more susceptible to adverse economic, political, regulatory or other factors affecting the issuers of such municipal bonds than a fund that does not limit its investments to such issuers.
|
|
9
|
Indemnifications: Like many other companies, the Funds' organizational documents provide that their officers and directors are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. In addition, both in some of their principal service contracts and in the normal course of their business, the Funds enter into contracts that provide indemnifications to other parties for certain types of losses or liabilities. Each Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this could involve future claims against each Fund.
|
Each Fund retains Management as its investment manager under a Management Agreement. For such investment management services, each Fund pays Management a fee at the annual rate of 0.25% of its average daily Managed Assets. Managed Assets equal the total assets of the Fund, less liabilities other than the aggregate indebtedness entered into for purposes of leverage. For purposes of calculating Managed Assets, the Liquidation Value of any AMPS outstanding is not considered a liability.
|
|
Management has contractually agreed to waive a portion of the management fees it is entitled to receive from each Fund at the following annual rates:
|
Year Ended
October 31,
|
% of Average
Daily Managed Assets
|
||||||
2011
|
0.05
|
Management has not contractually agreed to waive any portion of its fees beyond October 31, 2011.
|
|
In connection with the tender offer program, more fully described in Note E, Management has agreed to voluntarily extend for one year the contractual fee waivers currently in place, so that the fee waiver as a percentage of average daily Managed Assets for each Fund would be:
|
Year Ended
October 31,
|
% of Average
Daily Managed Assets
|
||||||
2011
|
0.10
|
||||||
2012
|
0.05
|
For the six months ended April 30, 2011, such waived fees amounted to $69,102, $220,448 and $59,286 for California, Intermediate, and New York, respectively.
|
|
Each Fund retains Management as its administrator under an Administration Agreement. Each Fund pays Management an administration fee at the annual rate of 0.30% of its average daily Managed Assets under this agreement. Additionally, Management retains State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") as its sub-administrator under a Sub-Administration Agreement. Management pays State Street a fee for all services received under the agreement.
|
|
Neuberger Berman LLC ("Neuberger") is retained by Management to furnish it with investment recommendations and research information without added cost to the Funds. Several individuals who are officers and/or Directors of each Fund are also employees of Neuberger and/or Management.
|
|
Management and Neuberger are indirect subsidiaries of Neuberger Berman Group LLC ("NBG," and together with its consolidated subsidiaries "NB Group"). The voting equity of NBG is owned by NBSH Acquisition, LLC ("NBSH") and Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. ("LBHI"). NBSH, which is owned by portfolio managers, members of the NB Group management team and certain of NB Group's key employees and senior professionals, owns
|
approximately 52% of the voting equity of NBG and LBHI, which is a debtor in possession under chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, owns the remaining 48% of the voting equity. LBHI's bankruptcy proceedings have had no material impact on the operations of the Funds. Management and Neuberger continue to operate in the ordinary course of business as the investment manager and sub-adviser, respectively, of the Funds.
|
|
Other non-affiliated service providers: Each Fund has an expense offset arrangement in connection with its custodian contract. For the six months ended April 30, 2011, the impact of this arrangement was a reduction of expenses of $511, $330 and $446 for California, Intermediate, and New York, respectively.
|
|
In connection with the settlement of each AMPS auction, each Fund pays, through the auction agent, a service fee to each participating broker-dealer based upon the aggregate liquidation preference of the AMPS held by the broker-dealer's customers. For any auction preceding a rate period of less than one year, the service fee is paid at the annual rate of 1/4 of 1% for each successful auction, and up to 3/20 of 1% if the auction fails; for any auction preceding a rate period of one year or more, the service fee is paid at a rate agreed to by each Fund and the broker-dealer.
|
|
In order to satisfy rating agency requirements, each Fund is required to provide the rating agency that rates its AMPS a report on a monthly basis verifying that each Fund is maintaining eligible assets having a discounted value equal to or greater than the Preferred Shares Basic Maintenance Amount, which is a minimum level set by the rating agency as one of the conditions to maintain its rating on the AMPS. "Discounted value" refers to the fact that the rating agency requires each Fund, in performing this calculation, to discount portfolio securities below their face value, at rates determined by the rating agency. Each Fund pays a fee to State Street for the preparation of this report which is reflected in the Statements of Operations under the caption "Basic maintenance expense."

In 2009, each Fund's Board authorized a semi-annual tender offer program consisting of up to four tender offers over a two-year period (each, a "Tender Offer Program"). Under each Tender Offer Program, if a Fund's common shares trade at an average daily discount to NAV per share of greater than 10% during a 12-week measurement period, the Fund would conduct a tender offer for between 5% and 20% of its outstanding common shares at a price equal to 98% of its NAV per share determined on the day the tender offer expires.
|
|
During the initial measurement period under the Tender Offer Program, each of Intermediate and New York traded at an average daily discount to NAV of less than 10% and, therefore, in accordance with its Tender Offer Program, did not conduct a tender offer. During the initial measurement period under the Tender Offer Program, California, however, traded at an average daily discount to NAV of greater than 10%. As a result, California conducted a tender offer for up to 10% of its outstanding common shares that commenced September 18, 2009 and ended October 16, 2009. Under the terms of the tender offer, on October 23, 2009, California accepted 611,942 common shares, representing approximately 10% of its then-outstanding common shares. Final payment was made at $14.15 per share, representing 98% of the NAV per share on October 16, 2009.
|
|
During each Fund's second measurement period under the Tender Offer Program, February 19, 2010 to May 14, 2010, each of California, Intermediate and New York traded at an average daily discount to NAV of less than 10% and, therefore, in accordance with its Tender Offer Program, did not conduct a tender offer.
|
|
During each Fund's third measurement period under the Tender Offer Program, August 18, 2010 to November 10, 2010, each of California, Intermediate and New York traded at an average daily discount to NAV of less than 10% and, therefore, in accordance with its Tender Offer Program, did not conduct a tender offer.
|
|
In connection with the adoption of the Tender Offer Program by each Fund, Management agreed to voluntarily extend for one year the contractual fee waivers currently in place for each Fund to offset some of the expenses associated with, or possible increases in each Fund's expense ratio resulting from, the tender offers (see Note B for additional disclosure). Each Board retains the ability, consistent with its fiduciary duty, to opt out of its Tender Offer Program should circumstances arise that the Board believes could cause a material negative effect on its Fund or its Fund's shareholders.
|
|
Note F—Recent Market Events:
|
|
Recent events in the financial sector have resulted in an unusually high degree of volatility in the financial markets and the economy at large. Both domestic and international equity and fixed income markets have been experiencing heightened volatility and turmoil, with issuers that have exposure to the real estate, mortgage and credit markets particularly affected. It is uncertain how long these conditions will continue.
|
In addition to the recent unprecedented turbulence in financial markets, the reduced liquidity in credit and fixed income markets may negatively affect many issuers worldwide. Illiquidity in these markets may mean there is less money available to purchase raw materials, goods and services, which may, in turn, bring down the prices of these economic staples. It may also result in issuers having more difficulty obtaining financing and ultimately a decline in their stock prices. These events and the potential for continuing market turbulence may have an adverse effect on each Fund.
|
|
The U.S. federal government and certain foreign central banks have acted to calm credit markets and increase confidence in the U.S. and world economies. Certain of these entities have injected liquidity into the markets and taken other steps in an effort to stabilize the markets and grow the economy. The ultimate effect of these efforts is, of course, not yet known. Changes in government policies may exacerbate the market's difficulties and withdrawal of this support, or other policy changes by governments or central banks, could negatively affect the value and liquidity of certain securities.
|
|
The situation in the financial markets has resulted in calls for increased regulation, and the need of many financial institutions for government help has given lawmakers and regulators new leverage. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the "Dodd-Frank Act"), has initiated a dramatic revision of the U.S. financial regulatory framework that is now expected to unfold over several years. The Dodd-Frank Act covers a broad range of topics, including (among many others) a reorganization of federal financial regulators; a process intended to ensure financial systemic stability and the resolution of potentially insolvent financial firms; new rules for derivatives trading; the creation of a consumer financial protection watchdog; the registration and additional regulation of hedge and private equity fund managers; and new federal requirements for residential mortgage loans. Instruments in which the Funds may invest, or the issuers of such instruments, may be affected by the new legislation and regulation in ways that are unforeseeable. The ultimate impact of the Dodd-Frank Act, and any resulting regulations, is not yet certain.
|
|
Because the situation in the markets is widespread and largely unprecedented, it may be unusually difficult to identify both risks and opportunities using past models of the interplay of market forces, or to predict the duration of these market events.
|
|
Note G—Unaudited Financial Information:
|
|
The financial information included in this interim report is taken from the records of each Fund without audit by an independent registered public accounting firm. Annual reports contain audited financial statements.

Total return based on per share NAV reflects the effects of changes in NAV on the performance of each Fund during each fiscal period. Total return based on per share market value assumes the purchase of common shares at the market price on the first day and sale of common shares at the market price on the last day of the period indicated. Dividends and distributions, if any, are assumed to be reinvested at prices obtained under each Fund's distribution reinvestment plan. Results represent past performance and do not guarantee future results. Current returns may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Investment returns may fluctuate and shares when sold may be worth more or less than original cost. For each Fund, total return would have been lower if Management had not waived a portion of the investment management fee.
