A return of capital is paid when a fund makes a distribution in excess of its current and accumulated earnings and profits. The return of capital distribution is a return of the shareholder’s original investment, is non-taxable, and reduces the shareholder’s cost basis in the fund shares. The amount of the return of capital distribution will be displayed in Box 3 of Form 1099-DIV.
A fund merger occurs when a fund transfers its assets and liabilities to another fund in exchange for shares of that fund having a value equal to the net assets transferred. The merger is subject to approval by the shareholders of the fund that is being acquired. Generally, a fund merger does not result in a taxable gain or loss to the acquired fund or its shareholders for federal income tax purposes.
These Notices report estimated amounts of each Fund's current distributions paid from net investment income, net realized capital gains, and return of capital based on each Fund's respective fiscal year end. The amounts and sources of distributions reported in these Notices 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 change based on tax regulations.
A stock split occurs when a shareholder of a fund receives a ratio of additional shares for every share they own (i.e. 1 share into 2 shares). A reverse stock split occurs when the amount of shares owned by a shareholder is reduced by a ratio (i.e. 2 shares into 1 share). A shareholder's total cost basis remains the same in both a stock split and a reverse stock split.
Consider a fund's investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing. The prospectus and the summary prospectus contain this and other information about the fund. Contact your financial professional for a prospectus and the summary prospectus. Read them carefully before investing.
An investment in our money market funds is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the funds seek to preserve the value of your clients investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the funds.
Mutual fund investing involves risk. Some mutual funds have more risk than others. The investment return and principal value will fluctuate and investor's shares when sold may be worth more or less than the original cost. Fixed income investments are subject to interest rate risk, and their value will decline as interest rates rise. Asset allocation and diversification do not assure a profit or protect against loss in declining markets. There is no guarantee a Fund's objectives will be achieved. The risks associated with each fund are explained more fully in each fund's respective prospectus. Your clients should consult with their attorney, accountant, and/or tax professional for advice concerning their particular situation.
