On November 10, 2026, Ares Dynamic Credit Allocation Fund, Inc. (traded as ARDC on the NYSE) revealed its monthly distribution for November, amounting to $0.1125 for each of its common shares. This distribution follows the established schedule and will be handled as per the following key dates:

• - Ex-Date: November 20, 2026
• - Record Date: November 20, 2026
• - Payable Date: November 30, 2026

This declared payment reflects an annualized distribution rate of approximately 11.60%, based on the current share price of $11.64, as of the close on November 9, 2026. It's important to note that this distribution rate is provided for informational purposes and does not guarantee future performance.

The Fund has expressed that the timing and amount of any future distributions will be at its discretion. In compliance with the mandates laid out in Section 19(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Fund will notify its stockholders should any portion of this month's distribution be derived from sources beyond undistributed net investment income—these could include short-term or long-term capital gains or return of capital. Stockholders will also find this information posted on the Fund's official website, arespublicfunds.com.

As estimates, the amounts and sources of distributions are subject to change and will ultimately depend on the Fund's investment performance over the remainder of the fiscal year. Furthermore, tax reporting for these distributions may be subject to regulations that change, possibly influencing the actual amounts and sources provided.

In alignment with Internal Revenue Code requirements, the Fund may also choose to distribute any excess income or net realized capital gains by December, accommodating for the minimum distribution requirements. Investors can expect to receive a Form 1099-DIV each January or February, detailing how to accurately report these distributions on their federal income tax returns.

Ares Dynamic Credit Allocation Fund, Inc. is a closed-end management entity that is externally overseen by Ares Capital Management II LLC, a subsidiary of Ares Management Corporation. The Fund's primary investment objective seeks to achieve a desirable total return primarily through current income, followed by capital appreciation. Its investment strategy focuses on a dynamically managed portfolio consisting of various credit investments. However, the Fund maintains that there is no guaranteed success in reaching its investment objectives.
