Thornburg Income Builder Opportunities Trust Monthly Distribution

On September 2, 2025, Thornburg Income Builder Opportunities Trust (NASDAQ: TBLD) declared its latest monthly distribution of $0.10417 per share for its common shares. This payment is scheduled for September 19, 2025, to shareholders who hold common shares as of the record date, September 12, 2025.

Distribution Details

The announcement features all essential details related to the distribution:

• - Amount: $0.10417 per share
• - Payable Date: September 19, 2025
• - Ex-Dividend/Record Date: September 12, 2025
• - Change from Previous Declaration: No Change

The Trust carefully calculates distribution rates by summing the monthly distribution per share across a year and dividing by the net asset value or market price per share at the time of announcement.

Importantly, the upcoming distribution is characterized as a long-term capital gain, and it does not include any short-term capital gain or return of capital. Tax implications for the shareholders will be communicated in detail through Form 1099 after the conclusion of the 2025 calendar year.

Historical Context

Taking a look at the cumulative distributions for the fiscal year commencing October 1, 2024, through September 30, 2025, the breakdown is as follows:

• - Net Investment Income: $0.00000 (0%) – $0.94248 (75%)
• - Net Realized Short-term Capital Gain: $0.00000 (0%) – $0.13800 (11%)
• - Net Realized Long-term Capital Gain: $0.10417 (100%) – $0.16956 (14%)
• - Return of Capital or Other Capital Sources: $0.00000 (0%) – $0.00000 (0%)
• - Total per share: $0.10417 (100%) – $1.25004 (100%)

This highlights that all shareholders must not presume that distributions stem solely from net investment income. Variations in distributions can include returns of capital too, mirroring the investment performance over time.

Investment Objective

The Trust's overarching goal is to provide its investors with a consistent income stream alongside additional total return opportunities. Achieving this aim entails strategic investments in a diverse portfolio comprising at least 80% of its managed assets across various income-producing securities. The investment scope includes equities and debts from both domestic and international markets, including companies from emerging economies.

Tax Considerations

The Thornburg Trust, being a registered investment company, is subject to a 4% excise tax unless it meets specific distribution requirements by the end of each calendar year. This necessitates distributing at least 98% of its ordinary income as well as 98.2% of its capital gains where applicable. Adjustments could be made if the Board, in conjunction with Trust management, determines that retention of income or capital gains would better serve shareholders.

For any period, distributions might exceed the net investment income generated within that timeframe. Consequently, it’s possible for a portion of the payment to represent a return of capital, impacting the tax basis of the shareholder's investment in the Trust.
