The Premium Dividend Fund (PDT) follows a managed distribution plan (the “PDT Plan”), which stipulates a consistent monthly payment of $0.0825 per share until further notice. It is important for shareholders to note that these distributions may comprise various elements including net investment income and realized capital gains, alongside a potential return of capital.
Similarly, the Tax-Advantaged Dividend Income Fund (HTD) operates under a managed distribution plan as well. This fund has declared a distribution of $0.1580 per share, continuing its framework of monthly disbursements to shareholders. This plan aims to mitigate the federal income tax implications associated with taxable income and capital gains.
Transparency and Investor Communication
Transparency concerning distribution components is crucial. Shareholders are reminded that a portion of the current distributions may have its sources beyond merely net investment income. A return of capital, although presented as a distribution, does not stem from income or gains of a fund. As mandated under the Investment Company Act of 1940, investors will receive a notice detailing the estimated components of distributions that do not consist solely of net investment income when payments are made.
At year-end, a Form 1099-DIV will be dispatched to investors detailing how to report the received distributions for federal income tax purposes.
Forward-Looking Statements
This announcement contains forward-looking statements related to future distribution amounts and plans, which are subject to various uncertainties beyond the control of John Hancock. Stakeholders are advised to exercise caution when interpreting these statements as actual outcomes may differ materially based on various market conditions and decisions by the funds' boards.
