Fund Management and Objectives

Each of the funds involved has a different investment strategy. PFD, PFO, and FFC focus on investing in preferred and other income-producing securities aiming for high current income along with capital preservation. FLC has a similar focus but with an added aim for capital appreciation. Meanwhile, DFP is oriented towards achieving total return, primarily through high current income. All these funds are managed by Flaherty & Crumrine Incorporated, which specializes in handling portfolios that include preferred and income-producing securities. The fiscal year for these funds concludes on November 30, 2025, and information regarding the tax breakdown of the 2025 distributions will be available early in 2026.

Important Considerations

Investors should be aware that past performance does not guarantee future results. It is essential to consider each fund's investment objectives, associated risks, charges, and expenses before making an investment decision.

Furthermore, any portion of the distribution that stems from sources other than income, such as a return of capital, will be disclosed appropriately. The actual amounts and their sources for tax purposes will depend on the future performance of the funds during the remainder of the fiscal year, and these amounts might change based on applicable tax regulations.
