Western Asset Inflation-Linked Opportunities & Income Fund (WIW or “the Fund”; CUSIP: 95766R104) Announces Notification of Sources of Distributions
Western Asset Inflation-Linked Opportunities & Income Fund (WIW) has announced its distribution details for February 28, 2025. The Fund operates under a managed distribution policy that aims to deliver long-term total return potential through fixed monthly distributions per common share.
The distributions may be sourced from net investment income, realized capital gains, or return of capital. The Fund estimates it has distributed more than its income and net realized capital gains, indicating that a portion of the distribution may represent a return of capital to shareholders. This return of capital reduces a shareholder's tax basis in their Fund shares but is not taxable.
The Fund calculates its performance metrics through January 31, 2025, including Average Annual Total Return, Annual NAV Total Return, Annualized Distribution Rate, and Cumulative Total Return. The Board of Directors maintains the authority to terminate or suspend the managed distribution policy, which could impact the Fund's market price.
Western Asset Inflation-Linked Opportunities & Income Fund (WIW) ha annunciato i dettagli della sua distribuzione per il 28 febbraio 2025. Il Fondo opera secondo una politica di distribuzione gestita che mira a offrire un potenziale di rendimento totale a lungo termine attraverso distribuzioni mensili fisse per ogni azione comune.
Le distribuzioni possono derivare da reddito da investimenti netti, guadagni di capitale realizzati o ritorno di capitale. Il Fondo stima di aver distribuito più del suo reddito e dei guadagni di capitale netti realizzati, indicando che una parte della distribuzione potrebbe rappresentare un ritorno di capitale per gli azionisti. Questo ritorno di capitale riduce la base imponibile di un azionista nelle sue azioni del Fondo, ma non è tassabile.
Il Fondo calcola i suoi parametri di performance fino al 31 gennaio 2025, inclusi il Rendimento Totale Annuale Medio, il Rendimento Totale NAV Annuale, il Tasso di Distribuzione Annualizzato e il Rendimento Totale Cumulativo. Il Consiglio di Amministrazione mantiene l'autorità di terminare o sospendere la politica di distribuzione gestita, il che potrebbe influenzare il prezzo di mercato del Fondo.

Este retorno de capital reduce la base imponible de un accionista en sus acciones del Fondo, pero no es imponible.
El Fondo calcula sus métricas de rendimiento hasta el 31 de enero de 2025, incluyendo el Rendimiento Total Anual Promedio, el Rendimiento Total NAV Anual, la Tasa de Distribución Anualizada y el Rendimiento Total Acumulado. La Junta Directiva mantiene la autoridad para terminar o suspender la política de distribución gestionada, lo que podría afectar el precio de mercado del Fondo.
Western Asset Inflation-Linked Opportunities & Income Fund (WIW)가 2025년 2월 28일 배당 세부사항을 발표했습니다. 이 펀드는 매달 고정 배당금을 통해 장기적인 총 수익 잠재력을 제공하는 것을 목표로 하는 관리 배당 정책 하에 운영됩니다.
배당금은 순투자 수익, 실현된 자본 이득 또는 자본 반환에서 나올 수 있습니다. 이 펀드는 수익과 실현된 자본 이득보다 더 많은 배당금을 분배한 것으로 추정되며, 이는 배당금의 일부가 주주에게 자본 반환을 나타낼 수 있음을 나타냅니다. 이 자본 반환은 주주의 펀드 주식에 대한 세금 기준을 줄이지만, 과세되지 않습니다.
펀드는 2025년 1월 31일까지 평균 연간 총 수익, 연간 NAV 총 수익, 연간화 배당률 및 누적 총 수익을 포함한 성과 지표를 계산합니다. 이사회는 관리 배당 정책을 종료하거나 중단할 권한을 유지하며, 이는 펀드의 시장 가격에 영향을 미칠 수 있습니다.
Western Asset Inflation-Linked Opportunities & Income Fund (WIW) a annoncé les détails de sa distribution pour le 28 février 2025. Le Fonds fonctionne selon une politique de distribution gérée qui vise à offrir un potentiel de rendement total à long terme par le biais de distributions mensuelles fixes par action ordinaire.
Les distributions peuvent provenir des revenus nets d'investissement, des gains en capital réalisés ou du retour de capital. Le Fonds estime avoir distribué plus que ses revenus et ses gains en capital nets réalisés, ce qui indique qu'une partie de la distribution pourrait représenter un retour de capital pour les actionnaires. Ce retour de capital réduit la base imposable d'un actionnaire dans ses actions du Fonds, mais n'est pas imposable.
Le Fonds calcule ses indicateurs de performance jusqu'au 31 janvier 2025, y compris le Rendement Total Annuel Moyen, le Rendement Total NAV Annuel, le Taux de Distribution Annualisé et le Rendement Total Cumulé. Le Conseil d'Administration conserve l'autorité de mettre fin ou de suspendre la politique de distribution gérée, ce qui pourrait avoir un impact sur le prix de marché du Fonds.
Western Asset Inflation-Linked Opportunities & Income Fund (WIW) hat die Einzelheiten seiner Ausschüttung für den 28. Februar 2025 bekannt gegeben. Der Fonds operiert unter einer verwalteten Ausschüttungspolitik, die darauf abzielt, langfristiges Potenzial für Gesamterträge durch feste monatliche Ausschüttungen pro Stammaktie zu bieten.
Die Ausschüttungen können aus Nettoanlageerträgen, realisierten Kapitalgewinnen oder Rückflüssen von Kapital stammen. Der Fonds schätzt, dass er mehr ausgeschüttet hat als seine Erträge und realisierten Nettokapitalgewinne, was darauf hindeutet, dass ein Teil der Ausschüttung eine Rückzahlung des Kapitals an die Aktionäre darstellen könnte. Diese Rückzahlung des Kapitals verringert die steuerliche Basis eines Aktionärs in seinen Fondsanteilen, ist jedoch nicht steuerpflichtig.
Der Fonds berechnet seine Leistungskennzahlen bis zum 31. Januar 2025, einschließlich des durchschnittlichen jährlichen Gesamtertrags, des jährlichen NAV-Gesamtertrags, der annualisierten Ausschüttungsquote und des kumulierten Gesamtertrags. Der Vorstand behält sich das Recht vor, die verwaltete Ausschüttungspolitik zu beenden oder auszusetzen, was den Marktpreis des Fonds beeinflussen könnte.

Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about the Fund’s investment performance from the amount of the current distribution or from the terms of the Plan. WIW estimates that it has distributed more than its income and net realized capital gains; therefore, a portion of the WIW distribution to shareholders may be a return of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the money that a shareholder invested in a Fund is paid back to them. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect WIW’s investment performance and should not be confused with ‘yield’ or ‘income’. The amounts and sources of distributions reported herein are only estimates and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Fund’s investment experience during the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. The Fund will send a Form 1099-DIV to shareholders for the calendar year that will describe how to report the Fund’s distributions for federal income tax purposes.

Fund Performance and Distribution Rate Information:
- Average Annual Total Return in relation to NAV represents the compound average of the Annual NAV Total Returns of the Fund for the five-year period ended through January 31, 2025. Annual NAV Total Return is the percentage change in the Fund’s NAV over a year, assuming reinvestment of distributions paid.
- The Annualized Distribution Rate is the current fiscal period’s distribution rate annualized as a percentage of the Fund’s NAV as of January 31, 2025.
- Cumulative Total Return is the percentage change in the Fund’s NAV from November 30, 2024 through January 31, 2025, assuming reinvestment of distributions paid.
- The Cumulative Fiscal Year-To-Date Distribution Rate is the dollar value of distributions for the fiscal period November 30, 2024 through January 31, 2025, as a percentage of the Fund’s NAV as of January 31, 2025.
This Fund has a managed distribution policy that seeks to deliver the Fund’s long-term total return potential through regular monthly distributions declared at a fixed rate per common share. Distributions may be paid in part or in full from net investment income, realized capital gains and by returning capital, or a combination thereof. Shareholders should note, however, that if a Fund’s aggregate net investment income and net realized capital gains are less than the amount of the distribution level, the difference will be distributed from the Fund’s assets and will constitute a return of the shareholder’s capital. A return of capital is not taxable; rather it reduces a shareholder’s tax basis in his or her shares of the Fund. The Board of Directors of the Fund may terminate or suspend the managed distribution policy at any time, which could have an adverse effect on the market price of the Fund’s shares.
