Description: NML Neuberger Berman MLP October 25, 2025

Neuberger Berman MLP (NYSE MKT: NML) is a U.S.-based energy-focused limited partnership that provides investors exposure to a diversified portfolio of midstream energy assets, primarily pipelines and related infrastructure.

Key performance indicators to watch include the fund’s distribution yield (currently around 7.5% annualized), its adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) growth rate (≈ 4% YoY over the past 12 months), and the net asset value (NAV) per unit, which has trended modestly higher than its market price, indicating a modest discount that may present a buying opportunity.

Sector drivers that materially affect NML’s outlook are natural gas price volatility, regulated tariff adjustments by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), and the broader U.S. energy transition that is increasing demand for midstream capacity to transport both fossil fuels and growing volumes of renewable natural gas.

Given the fund’s sensitivity to interest-rate movements, a rise in Treasury yields could pressure its unit price, while a flattening yield curve typically benefits MLPs by lowering financing costs for new pipeline projects.
