Summary

Cohen & Steers Closed-End Opportunity Fund, Inc. said its July 31, 2026 distribution will be $0.0870 per common share under its managed distribution policy, with the payout estimated to be sourced from $0.0317 per share of net investment income and $0.0553 of net realized long-term capital gains. The fund reported no net realized short-term capital gains or return of capital in the current distribution. Fiscal 2026 year-to-date distributions total $0.6090 per share, of which $0.2138, or 35.11%, is attributed to net investment income and $0.3952, or 64.89%, to net realized long-term capital gains. The fund said it implemented its managed distribution policy in December 2021 under exemptive relief from the Securities and Exchange Commission. The policy is designed to support regular monthly distributions at a fixed rate per common share while giving the fund flexibility to realize long-term capital gains through the year. The Board of Directors may amend, terminate or suspend the policy at any time, which could adversely affect the market price of the fund's shares. The fund also reported a year-to-date cumulative total return of 7.65% for the period from January 1, 2026 through June 30, 2026, a cumulative distribution rate of 4.45%, a five-year average annual total return of 8.33%, and a current annualized distribution rate of 7.63%, all based on net asset value. Cohen & Steers said the distribution-source figures are estimates only, may change over time, and should not be used for tax reporting, with final tax characteristics to be reported on Form 1099-DIV after year-end.
