GAMCO Natural Resources, Gold & Income Trust (NYSE: GNT) is exploring a tax benefit preservation plan to protect over $74 million in capital loss carryforwards (CLCFs) as of March 31, 2025. The plan aims to prevent an "ownership change" under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, which could limit the Fund's use of CLCFs.
The proposed plan would discourage shareholders from accumulating 4.9% or more of Fund shares without Board approval. If implemented, the Fund would issue rights to common shareholders, allowing them to purchase additional shares if certain ownership thresholds are exceeded.
Key points:
- CLCFs have no expiration date under current law
- Plan targets to prevent >50% ownership increase by 5% stockholders over 3 years
- Implementation details pending Board's final decision
- No guarantee plan will prevent ownership change if adopted
