About MIHRX

MFS High Income Fund Class R2 is a mutual fund that seeks total return with an emphasis on high current income, while also considering capital appreciation. It primarily invests at least 80% of its net assets in a core portfolio of U.S. high yield securities, focusing on below-investment-grade debt instruments to generate income. The fund employs bottom-up fundamental research to select companies believed to withstand credit cycles, combined with top-down risk budgeting that adjusts exposures based on valuation analysis, aiming to enhance returns within a defined risk framework over full market cycles. Its portfolio is heavily allocated to high yield corporates, with smaller positions in emerging markets debt, U.S. and non-U.S. equities, cash equivalents, and other assets. Class R2 shares, available to eligible investors, feature no initial sales charge or contingent deferred sales charge but include a 0.50% annual Rule 12b-1 fee. Managed by MFS, headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts since 1978, this fund serves investors seeking income-oriented fixed income exposure in the high yield bond market.
