Considering how 'is' is the only verb in the sentence, assuming it to be the bolded word.
'Is' is an example of linking verb. These verbs do not add any meaning for themselves but simply connect the subject with other words that support and elaborate on this subject. Contrary to the common notion of verbs as 'action words', these verbs do not show any action at all. Other linking verbs include are, was, were, being, etc.
