Insights

The monthly distribution announcement reveals several critical insights about MEGI's financial health and strategy. The fund maintains its $0.1250 per share monthly distribution, translating to a substantial 12.31% yield based on market price and 11.07% based on NAV. However, the distribution composition raises concerns - 100% of the January distribution comes from return of capital, unlike previous distributions which were better supported by investment income and capital gains.

The fund's performance metrics are concerning, showing a negative average annual total return of -2.56% since inception and a modest 0.51% cumulative total return for the current fiscal period. This suggests the high distribution rate may not be sustainable long-term, as it's currently exceeding the fund's ability to generate returns.

The significant gap between market price ($12.19) and NAV ($13.55) indicates a 10% discount, presenting a potential opportunity for value investors but also reflecting market skepticism about the fund's distribution sustainability.

There is no assurance the Fund will continue to pay regular monthly distributions or that it will do so at a particular rate.

You should not draw any conclusions about the Fund’s investment performance from the amount of its distribution to shareholders.

The Fund estimates that it has distributed more than its income and net realized capital gains; therefore, a portion of your distribution may be a return of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the money that you invested in the Fund is paid back to you. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Fund’s investment performance and should not be confused with “yield” or “income.’’

Any distributions in excess of the Fund’s current and accumulated earnings and profits will be treated first, as a tax-deferred return of capital, which is applied against and will reduce the adjusted tax basis of shares and, after such adjusted basis is reduced to zero, will generally constitute capital gains. A return of capital distribution may lower a shareholder’s basis in the Fund, causing a potential future tax consequence in connection with the sale of Fund shares, even if such shares are sold at a loss to the shareholder’s initial investments.

Any amounts and sources of distributions are only estimated and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources of income of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend on 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 for the calendar year that will advise how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.

The Fund is a closed-end fund, which is traded on the New York Stock Exchange and invests primarily in income-producing equity securities issued by infrastructure companies. Holdings are subject to change. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
