Fund,
Inc. (the
corporation)
is
registered
under
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940
(the
1940
Act).
The
Inflation
Protected
Bond
Fund,
Inc.
(the
fund)
is a
diversified, open-end
management
investment
company
established
by
the
corporation. The
fund
seeks to
provide
inflation
protection
and
income
by
investing
primarily
in
inflation-protected
debt
securities.
The
fund
has three classes
of
shares:
the
Inflation

Fund–I
Class
(I

and
the
Inflation

related
solely
to
that
class;
separate

all
classes;
and,
in
all
other
respects,
the
same

ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
Basis
of
Preparation
The fund
is
an
investment
company
and
follows
accounting
and
reporting
guidance
in
the
Financial
Accounting
Standards
Board
(FASB)
Accounting
Standards
Codification
Topic
946
(ASC
946).
The
accompanying
financial
statements
were
prepared
in

with
accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
of
America
(GAAP),
including,
but
not
limited
to,
ASC
946.
GAAP
requires
the
use
of
estimates
made
by
management.
Management
believes
that
estimates
and
valuations
are
appropriate;
however,
actual
results
may
differ
from
those
estimates,
and
the
valuations
reflected
in
the
accompanying
financial
statements
may
differ
from
the
value
ultimately
realized
upon
sale
or
maturity.
Investment
Transactions,
Investment
Income,
and
Distributions
Investment
transactions
are
accounted
for
on
the
trade
date
basis.
Income
and
expenses
are
recorded
on
the
accrual
basis.
Realized
gains
and
losses
are
reported
on
the
identified
cost
basis. Premiums
and
discounts
on
debt
securities
are
amortized
for
financial
reporting
purposes. Paydown
gains
and
losses
are
recorded
as
an
adjustment
to
interest
income. Inflation
adjustments
to
the
principal
amount
of
inflation-indexed
bonds
are
reflected
as

and
paid
monthly,
except
for

annually.
Currency
Translation
Assets,
including
investments,
and
liabilities
denominated
in
foreign
currencies
are
translated
into
U.S.
dollar
values
each
day
at
the
prevailing
exchange
rate,
using
the
mean
of
the
bid
and
asked
prices
of
such
currencies
against
U.S.
dollars
as
provided
by
an
outside
pricing
service.
Purchases
and
sales
of
securities,
income,
and
expenses
are
translated
into
U.S.
dollars
at
the
prevailing
exchange
rate
on
the
respective
date
of
such
transaction.
The
effect
of
changes
in
foreign
currency
exchange
rates
on
realized
and
unrealized
security
gains
and
losses
is
not
bifurcated
from
the
portion
attributable
to
changes
in
market
prices.

expenses
incurred
by
each

to
which
they
relate.
Expenses
common
to
all
classes
and
investment
income
are
allocated
to
the
classes
based
upon
the
relative
daily
net
assets
of
each

are
allocated
based
upon

Capital
Transactions
Each
investor’s
interest
in
the
net
assets
of
the
fund
is
represented
by
fund
shares.
The
fund’s
net
asset
value
(NAV)
per
share
is
computed
at
the
close
of
the
New
York
Stock
Exchange
(NYSE),
normally
4
p.m.
Eastern
time,
each
day
the
NYSE
is
open
for
business.
However,
the
NAV
per
share
may
be
calculated
at
a
time
other
than
the
normal
close
of
the
NYSE
if
trading
on
the
NYSE
is
restricted,
if
the
NYSE
closes
earlier,
or
as
may
be
permitted
by
the
SEC.
Purchases
and
redemptions
of
fund
shares
are
transacted
at
the
next-computed
NAV
per

after
receipt
of
the
transaction

The
ASU
requires

of
specific

in
the

as
well
as

VALUATION
Fair
Value
The
fund’s
financial
instruments
are
valued
at
the
close
of
the
NYSE
and
are
reported
at
fair
value,
which
GAAP
defines
as
the
price
that
would
be
received
to
sell
an
asset
or
paid
to
transfer
a
liability
in
an
orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
at
the
measurement
date. The fund’s
Board
of
Directors
(the
Board)
has
designated
T.
Rowe
Price
Associates,
Inc.
as
the
fund’s
valuation
designee
(Valuation
Designee).
Subject
to
oversight
by
the
Board,
the
Valuation
Designee
performs
the
following
functions
in
performing
fair
value
determinations:
assesses
and
manages
valuation
risks;
establishes
and
applies
fair
value
methodologies;
tests
fair
value
methodologies;
and
evaluates
pricing
vendors
and
pricing
agents.
The
duties
and
responsibilities
of
the
Valuation
Designee
are
performed
by
its
Valuation
Committee. The
Valuation
Designee provides
periodic
reporting
to
the
Board
on
valuation
matters.
Various
valuation
techniques
and
inputs
are
used
to
determine
the
fair
value
of
financial
instruments.
GAAP
establishes
the
following
fair
value
hierarchy
that
categorizes
the
inputs
used
to
measure
fair
value:
Level
1
–
quoted
prices
(unadjusted)
in
active
markets
for
identical
financial
instruments
that
the
fund
can
access
at
the
reporting
date
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Inflation

23
Level

–
inputs
other
than
Level

quoted
prices
that
are
observable,
either
directly
or
indirectly
(including,
but
not
limited
to,
quoted
prices
for
similar
financial
instruments
in
active
markets,
quoted
prices
for
identical
or
similar
financial
instruments
in
inactive
markets,
interest
rates
and
yield
curves,
implied
volatilities,
and
credit
spreads)
Level
3
–
unobservable
inputs
(including
the Valuation
Designee’s assumptions
in
determining
fair
value)
Observable
inputs
are
developed
using
market
data,
such
as
publicly
available
information
about
actual
events
or
transactions,
and
reflect
the
assumptions
that
market
participants
would
use
to
price
the
financial
instrument.
Unobservable
inputs
are
those
for
which
market
data
are
not
available
and
are
developed
using
the
best
information
available
about
the
assumptions
that
market
participants
would
use
to
price
the
financial
instrument.
GAAP
requires
valuation
techniques
to
maximize
the
use
of
relevant
observable
inputs
and
minimize
the
use
of
unobservable
inputs.
When
multiple
inputs
are
used
to
derive
fair
value,
the
financial
instrument
is
assigned
to
the
level
within
the
fair
value
hierarchy
based
on
the
lowest-level
input
that
is
significant
to
the
fair
value
of
the
financial
instrument.
Input
levels
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risk
or
liquidity
associated
with
financial
instruments
at
that
level
but
rather
the
degree
of
judgment
used
in
determining
those
values.
Valuation
Techniques
Debt
securities
are
generally traded
in
the over-the-
counter
(OTC)
market
and
are
valued
at
prices
furnished
by
independent
pricing
services
or
by
broker
dealers
who
make
markets
in
such
securities.
When
valuing
securities,
the
independent
pricing
services
consider
factors
such
as,
but
not
limited
to,
the
yield
or
price
of
bonds
of
comparable
quality,
coupon,
maturity,
and
type,
as
well
as
prices
quoted
by
dealers
who
make
markets
in
such
securities.
Investments
in
mutual
funds
are
valued
at
the
mutual
fund’s
closing
NAV
per
share
on
the
day
of
valuation.
Futures
contracts
are
valued
at
closing
settlement
prices.
Swaps
are
valued
at
prices
furnished
by
an
independent
pricing
service
or
independent
swap
dealers.
Assets
and
liabilities
other
than
financial
instruments,
including
short-term
receivables
and
payables,
are
carried
at
cost,
or
estimated
realizable
value,
if
less,
which
approximates
fair
value.
Investments
for
which
market
quotations are
not
readily
available
or
deemed
unreliable
are
valued
at
fair
value
as
determined
in
good
faith
by
the
Valuation
Designee.
The

PRICE
Inflation
Protected
Bond
Fund
24
not
readily
available
or
deemed
unreliable,
including
the
use
of
other
pricing
sources.
Factors
used
in
determining
fair
value
vary
by
type
of
investment
and
may
include
market
or
investment
specific
considerations.
The
Valuation
Designee typically
will
afford
the
greatest
weight
to
actual
prices
in
arm’s
length
transactions,
to
the
extent
they
represent
orderly
transactions
between
market
participants,
transaction
information
can
be
reliably
obtained,
and
prices
are
deemed
representative
of
fair
value.
However,
the
Valuation
Designee may
also
consider
other
valuation
methods
such
as
market-based
valuation
multiples;
a
discount
or
premium
from
market
value
of
a
similar,
freely
traded
security
of
the
same
issuer;
discounted
cash
flows;
yield
to
maturity;
or
some
combination.
Fair
value
determinations
are
reviewed
on
a
regular
basis.
Because
any
fair
value
determination
involves
a
significant
amount
of
judgment,
there
is
a
degree
of
subjectivity
inherent
in
such
pricing
decisions. Fair
value
prices
determined
by
the
Valuation
Designee could
differ
from
those
of
other
market
participants,
and
it
is
possible
that
the
fair
value
determined
for
a
security
may
be
materially
different
from
the
value
that
could
be
realized
upon
the
sale
of
that
security.

DERIVATIVE
INSTRUMENTS
During
the
six
months ended
November
30,
2025,
the
fund
invested
in
derivative
instruments.
As
defined
by
GAAP,
a
derivative
is
a
financial
instrument
whose
value
is
derived
from
an
underlying
security
price,
foreign
exchange
rate,
interest
rate,
index
of
prices
or
rates,
or
other
variable;
it
requires
little
or
no
initial
investment
and
permits
or
requires
net
settlement
or
delivery
of
cash
or
other
assets.
The
fund
invests
in
derivatives
only
if
the
expected
risks
and
rewards
are
consistent
with
its
investment
objectives,
policies,
and
overall
risk
profile,
as
described
in
its
prospectus
and
Statement
of
Additional
Information.
The
fund
may
use
derivatives
for
a
variety
of
purposes
and
may
use
them
to
establish
both
long
and
short
positions
within
the
fund’s
portfolio.
Potential
uses
include
to
hedge
against
declines
in
principal
value,
increase
yield,
invest
in
an
asset
with
greater
efficiency
and
at
a
lower
cost
than
is
possible
through
direct
investment,
to
enhance
return,
or
to
adjust
portfolio
duration
and
credit
exposure.
The
risks
associated
with
the
use
of
derivatives
are
different
from,
and
potentially
much
greater
than,
the
risks
associated
with
investing
directly
in
the
instruments
on
which
the
derivatives
are
based.
The
fund
values
its
derivatives
at
fair
value
and
recognizes
changes
in
fair
value
currently
in
its
results
of
operations.
Accordingly,
the
fund
does
not
follow
hedge
accounting,
even
for
derivatives
employed
as
economic
hedges.
Generally,
the
fund
accounts
for
its
derivatives
on
a
gross
basis.
It
does
not
offset
the
fair
value
of
derivative
liabilities
against
the
fair
value
of
derivative
assets
on
its
financial
statements,
nor
does
it
offset
the
fair
value
of
derivative
instruments
against
the
right
to
reclaim
or
obligation
to
return
collateral.
The
following
table
summarizes
the
fair
value
of
the
fund’s
derivative
instruments
held
as
of
November
30,
2025,

Counterparty
Risk
and
Collateral
The
fund
invests
in
exchange-traded
and/or
centrally
cleared
derivative
contracts,
such
as
futures,
exchange-traded
options,
and
centrally
cleared
swaps.
Counterparty
risk
on
such
derivatives
is
minimal
because
the
clearinghouse
provides
protection
against
counterparty
defaults.
For
futures
and
centrally
cleared
swaps,
the
fund
is
required
to
deposit
collateral
in
an
amount
specified
by
the
clearinghouse
and
the
clearing
firm
(margin
requirement),
and
the
margin
requirement
must
be
maintained
over
the
life
of
the
contract.
Each
clearinghouse
and
clearing
firm,
in
its
sole
discretion,
may
adjust
the
margin
requirements
applicable
to
the
fund.
Collateral may
be
in
the
form
of
cash
or
debt
securities
issued
by
the
U.S.
government
or
related
agencies.
Cash
posted
by
the
fund
is
reflected
as
cash
deposits
in
the
accompanying
financial
statements
and
generally
is
restricted
from
withdrawal
by
the
fund;
securities
posted
by
the
fund
are
so
noted
in
the
accompanying
Portfolio
of
Investments;
both
remain
in
the
fund’s
assets.
While
typically
not
sold
in
the
same
manner
as
equity
or
fixed
income
securities,
exchange-traded
or
centrally
cleared
derivatives
may
be
closed
out
only
on
the
exchange
or
clearinghouse
where
the
contracts
were
cleared.
This
ability
is
subject
to
the
liquidity
of
underlying
positions. As
of
November
30,
2025,
securities
valued
at $518,000
had
been
posted
by
the
fund
for
exchange-traded
and/or
centrally
cleared
derivatives.
Futures
Contracts
The
fund
is
subject
to interest
rate
risk in
the
normal
course
of
pursuing
its
investment
objectives
and
uses
futures
contracts
to
help
manage
such
risk.
The fund
may
enter
into
futures
contracts
to
manage
exposure
to
interest
rate
and
yield
curve
movements,
security
prices,
foreign
currencies,
credit
quality,
and
mortgage
prepayments;
as
an
efficient
means
of
adjusting
exposure
to
all
or
part
of
a
target
market;
to
enhance
income;
as
a
cash
management
tool;
or
to
adjust
portfolio
duration
and
credit
exposure. A
futures
contract
provides
for
the
future
sale
by
one
party
and
purchase
by
another
of
a
specified
amount
of
a
specific
underlying
financial
instrument
at
an
agreed-upon
price,
date,
time,
and
place.
The
fund
currently
invests
only
in
exchange-traded
futures,
which
generally
are
standardized
as
to
maturity
date,
underlying
financial
instrument,
and
other
contract
terms.
Payments
are
made
or
received
by
the
fund
each
day
to
settle
daily
fluctuations
in
the
value
of
the
contract
(variation
margin),
which
reflect
changes
in
the
value
of
the
underlying
financial
instrument.
Variation
margin
is
recorded
as
unrealized
gain
or
loss
until
the
contract
is
closed.
The
value
of
a
futures
contract
included
in
net
assets
is
the
amount
of
unsettled
variation
margin;
net
variation
margin
receivable
is
reflected
as
an
asset
and
net
variation
margin
payable
is
reflected
as
a
liability
on
the
accompanying
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.

closed,
a
realized
gain
or

is
recorded
on
the
accompanying
Statement
of
Operations.
Risks
related
to
the
use
of
futures
contracts
include
possible
illiquidity
of
the
futures
markets,
contract
prices
that
can
be
highly
volatile
and
imperfectly
correlated
to
movements
in

values
and/or

and
potential

the
volume
of
the
fund’s
activity
in
futures,
based
on
underlying
notional
amounts,
was
generally
between
0%
and
4%
of
net

Swaps
The
fund
is
subject
to
inflation
risk in
the
normal
course
of
pursuing
its
investment
objectives
and
uses
swap
contracts
to
help
manage
such
risk.
The
fund
may
use
swaps
in
an
effort
to
manage
both
long
and
short
exposure
to
changes
in
interest
rates,
inflation
rates,
and
credit
quality;
to
adjust
overall
exposure
to
certain
markets;
to
enhance
total
return
or
protect
the
value
of
portfolio
securities;
to
serve
as
a
cash
management
tool;
or
to
adjust
portfolio
duration
and
credit
exposure.
Swap
agreements
can
be
settled
either
directly
with
the
counterparty
(bilateral
swap)
or
through
a
central
clearinghouse
(centrally
cleared
swap).
Fluctuations
in
the
fair
value
of
a
contract
are
reflected
in
unrealized
gain
or
loss
and
are
reclassified
to
realized
gain
or
loss
on
the
accompanying
Statement
of
Operations upon
contract
termination
or
cash
settlement.
Net
periodic
receipts
or
payments
required
by
a
contract
increase
or
decrease,
respectively,
the
value
of
the
contract
until
the
contractual
payment
date,
at
which
time
such
amounts
are
reclassified
from
unrealized
to
realized
gain
or
loss
on
the
accompanying
Statement
of
Operations.
For
bilateral
swaps,
cash
payments
are
made
or
received
by
the
fund
on
a
periodic
basis
in
accordance
with
contract
terms;
unrealized
gain
on
contracts
and
premiums
paid
are
reflected
as
assets
and
unrealized
loss
on
contracts
and
premiums
received
are
reflected
as
liabilities
on
the
accompanying
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
For
bilateral
swaps,
premiums
paid
or
received
are
amortized
over
the
life
of
the
swap
and
are
recognized
as
realized
gain
or
loss
on
the
accompanying
Statement
of
Operations.
For
centrally
cleared
swaps,
payments
are
made
or
received
by
the
fund
each
day
to
settle
the
daily
fluctuation
in
the
value
of
the
contract
(variation
margin).
Accordingly,
the
value
of
a
centrally
cleared
swap
included
in
net
assets
is
the
unsettled
variation
margin;
net
variation
margin
receivable
is
reflected
as
an
asset
and
net
variation
margin
payable
is
reflected
as
a
liability
on
the
accompanying
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
Zero-coupon
inflation
swaps
are
agreements
to
exchange
cash
flows,
on
the
contract’s
maturity
date,
based
on
the
difference
between
a
predetermined
fixed
rate
and
the
cumulative

index,

Risks
related
to
the
use
of
zero-coupon
inflation
swaps
include
the
potential
for
unanticipated
movements
in
inflation
rates,
the
possible
failure
of
a
counterparty
to
perform
in

with
the

of
the
swap
agreements,
potential

regulation
that
could
adversely
affect
the
fund’s

investments,
and
potential
losses
in
excess
of
the
fund’s
initial
investment.
During
the
six

the

of
the

OTHER
INVESTMENT
TRANSACTIONS
Consistent
with
its
investment
objective, the
fund
engages
in
the
following
practices
to
manage
exposure
to
certain
risks
and/or
to
enhance
performance.
The
investment
objective,
policies,
program,
and
risk
factors
of the
fund
are
described
more
fully
in the
fund’s prospectus
and
Statement
of
Additional
Information.
Restricted
Securities
The
fund
invests
in
securities
that
are
subject
to
legal
or
contractual
restrictions
on
resale.
Prompt
sale
of
such
securities
at
an
acceptable
price
may
be
difficult
and
may
involve
substantial
delays
and
additional
costs.
Mortgage-Backed
Securities
The
fund
invests
in
mortgage-backed
securities
(MBS
or
pass-through
certificates)
that
represent
an
interest
in
a
pool
of
specific
underlying
mortgage
loans
and
entitle
the
fund
to
the
periodic
payments
of
principal
and
interest
from
those
mortgages.
MBS
may
be
issued
by
government
agencies
or
corporations,
or
private
issuers.
Most
MBS
issued
by
government
agencies
are
guaranteed;
however,
the
degree
of
protection
differs
based
on
the
issuer.
MBS are
sensitive
to
changes
in
economic
conditions
that
affect
the
rate
of
prepayments
and
defaults
on
the
underlying
mortgages;
accordingly,
the
value,
income,
and
related
cash
flows
from
MBS
may
be
more
volatile
than
other
debt
instruments.
Securities
Lending
The fund
may
lend
its
securities
to
approved
borrowers
to
earn
additional
income.
Its
securities
lending
activities
are
administered
by
a
lending
agent
in
accordance
with
a
securities
lending
agreement.
Security
loans
generally
do
not
have
stated
maturity
dates,
and
the
fund
may
recall
a
security
at
any
time.
The
fund
receives
collateral
in
the
form
of
cash
or
U.S.
government
securities.
Collateral
is
maintained
over
the
life
of
the
loan
in
an
amount
not

loaned
securities;
any
additional
collateral
required
due
to
changes
in
security
values
is
delivered
to
the
fund
the
next
business
day.
Cash
collateral
is
invested
in
accordance
with
investment
guidelines
approved
by
fund
management.
Additionally,
the
lending
agent
indemnifies
the
fund
against
losses
resulting
from
borrower
default.
Although
risk
is
mitigated
by
the
collateral
and
indemnification,
the
fund
could
experience
a
delay
in
recovering
its
securities
and
a
possible
loss
of
income
or
value
if
the
borrower
fails
to
return
the
securities,
collateral
investments
decline
in
value,
and
the
lending
agent
fails
to
perform.
Securities
lending
revenue
consists
of
earnings
on
invested
collateral
and
borrowing
fees,
net
of
any
rebates
to
the
borrower,
compensation
to
the
lending
agent,
and
other
administrative
costs.
In

investments
made
with

statements,

FEDERAL
INCOME
TAXES
Generally,
no
provision
for
federal
income
taxes
is
required
since
the
fund
intends
to continue
to
qualify
as
a

Financial
reporting
records
are
adjusted
for
permanent

The

accordingly,
tax-basis

The

intends
to

Net

RELATED
PARTY
TRANSACTIONS
The
fund
is
managed
by
T.
Rowe
Price
Associates,
Inc.
(Price
Associates),
a
wholly
owned
subsidiary
of
T.
Rowe
Price
Group,
Inc.
(Price
Group).
The
investment
management
agreement
between
the
fund
and
Price
Associates
provides
for
an
annual
investment
management
fee,
which
is
computed
daily
and
paid
monthly. The
fee
consists
of
an
individual
fund
fee,
equal
to
0.05%
of
the
fund’s
average
daily
net
assets,
and
a
group
fee.
The
group
fee
rate
is
calculated
based
on
the
combined
net
assets
of
certain
mutual
funds
sponsored
by
Price
Associates
(the
group)
applied
to
a
graduated
fee
schedule,
with
rates
ranging
from
0.48%
for
the
first
$1
billion
of
assets
to
0.26%
for
assets
in
excess
of
$845
billion.
The
fund’s
group
fee
is
determined
by
applying
the
group
fee
rate
to
the
fund’s
average
daily
net
assets. At
November
30,
2025,
the
effective
annual
group
fee
rate
was
0.28%. Effective
August
1,
2017,
Price
Associates
has
contractually
agreed,
at
least
through
July
31,
2026,
to
waive
a
portion
of
its
management
fee
in
order
to
limit
the
fund’s
management
fees
to 0.17% of
the
fund’s
average
daily
net
assets.
Thereafter,
this
agreement
will
automatically
renew
for
one-year
terms
unless
terminated
or
modified
by
the
fund’s
Board.
Any
fees
waived
under
this
agreement
are
not
subject
to
reimbursement
to
Price
Associates
by
the
fund. The
total
management
fees
waived
were $406,000
and
allocated
ratably
in
the
amounts
of
$131,000
for
the
Investor

SEGMENT
REPORTING
Operating segments
are
defined
as
components
of
a
company
that
engage
in
business
activities
and
for
which
discrete
financial
information
is
available
and
regularly
reviewed
by
the
chief
operating
decision
maker
(CODM)
in
deciding
how
to
allocate
resources
and
assess
performance.
The
Management
Committee
of
Price
Associates
acts
as
the
fund’s
CODM.
The
fund
makes
investments
in
accordance
with
its
investment
objective
as
outlined
in
the
Prospectus
and
is
considered
one
reportable
segment
because
the
CODM
allocates
resources
and
assesses
the
operating
results
of
the
fund
on
the
whole.
The
fund’s
revenue
is
derived
from
investments
in
a
portfolio
of
securities.
The
CODM
allocates
resources
and
assesses
performance
based
on
the
operating
results
of
the
fund,
which
is
consistent
with
the
results
presented
in
the
statement
of
operations,
statement
of
changes
in
net
assets
and
financial
highlights.
The
CODM
compares
the
fund’s
performance
to
its
benchmark
index
and
evaluates
the
positioning
of
the
fund
in
relation
to
its
investment
objective.
The
measure
of
segment
assets
is
net
assets
of
the
fund
which
is
disclosed
in
the
statement
of
assets
and
liabilities.
The accounting
policies
of
the
segment
are
the
same
as
those
described
in
the
summary
of
significant
accounting
policies.
The
financial
statements
include
all
details
of
the
segment
assets,
segment
revenue
and
expenses;
and
reflect
the
financial
results
of
the
segment.
