Guggenheim Energy & Income Fund Announces Liquidating Distribution


NEW YORK, Aug. 03, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- As previously announced, Guggenheim Energy & Income Fund (“XGEIX” or the “Fund”) has entered into a Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution intended to provide liquidity to shareholders. On or about August 11, 2023, the Fund expects to make one or more liquidating distributions to shareholders of record as of July 28, 2023, representing substantially all of the Fund’s net assets. Additional information regarding the exact amount of the distribution and other details will be provided closer to that time.

The liquidating distributions to shareholders will be treated as payments in redemption of their shares. The liquidation of the Fund will generally result in a taxable event for shareholders and would be expected to give rise to capital gain or loss to shareholders, depending on the basis of their shares and their individual situations. Shareholders should contact their tax advisers to discuss the income tax consequences of the liquidation.
