The announcement of DoubleLine Income Solutions Fund's distribution of $0.11 per share is a direct indicator of the fund's current cash flow and financial health. Distributions such as these are often seen as a reflection of a fund's ability to generate income and return value to shareholders. Investors typically look at the consistency and sustainability of distributions to gauge the long-term viability of income funds.

It is important to note that the nature of the distribution, whether it is derived from ordinary income, long-term capital gains, or a return of capital, can have differing implications for investors. A return of capital, for example, may indicate that the fund is not generating enough income and is instead returning a portion of the investor's original investment. This could be a red flag for the fund's future performance.

From a taxation perspective, the classification of distributions is significant for shareholders. Ordinary income is taxed at the shareholder's income tax rate, while long-term capital gains are generally taxed at a lower rate. If the distribution is classified as a return of capital, it is not taxed immediately but reduces the shareholder's cost basis in the investment, potentially increasing the capital gains tax owed when shares are sold.

Investors should be aware that the final determination of the tax characteristics of the Fund's distributions will only be made at the end of the taxable year. Therefore, the tax impact of these distributions cannot be fully assessed until the Form 1099-DIV is received. Shareholders should consult with tax professionals to understand the implications of these distributions on their personal tax situations.

About DoubleLine Income Solutions Fund

The Fund's primary investment objective is to seek high current income; its secondary objective is to seek capital appreciation.

DoubleLine Capital LP ("DoubleLine"), the Fund's investment adviser, expects that the Fund will normally invest at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in debt securities and other income-producing investments anywhere in the world, including emerging markets. The Fund may invest in mortgage-backed securities of any kind and may invest without limit in securities rated below investment grade (commonly referred to as "high yield" securities or "junk bonds"). There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its investment objectives. Investing in the Fund involves the risk of principal loss.

Investors should consider the Fund's investment objective, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing. An investment in the Fund should not constitute a complete investment program. Investors should note that the Fund only can be obtained through a broker.

This document is not an offer to sell securities or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities, nor shall there be any sale or offer of these securities, in any jurisdiction where such sale or offer is not permitted.

Fund investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible.

Shares of closed-end investment companies frequently trade at a discount to their net asset value, which may increase investors' risk of loss. This risk may be greater for investors expecting to sell their shares in a relatively short period after the completion of the public offering. There are risks associated with investment in the fund.

Investments in debt securities typically decline in value when interest rates rise. This risk is usually greater for longer-term debt securities. Investments in asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities include additional risks that investors should be aware of including credit risk, prepayment risk, possible illiquidity and default, as well as increased susceptibility to adverse economic developments. 
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The fund may invest in foreign securities which involve greater volatility and political, economic and currency risks and differences in accounting methods. These risks are greater for investments in emerging markets. Investments in lower rated and non-rated securities present a great risk of loss to principal and interest than higher rated securities. Investment strategies may not achieve the desired results due to implementation lag, other timing factors, portfolio management decisions-making, economic or market conditions or other unanticipated factors. In addition, the Fund may invest in other asset classes and investments such as, among others, REITs, credit default swaps, short sales, derivatives and smaller companies which include additional risks. The DoubleLine Income Solutions Fund (the "Fund") is a diversified, closed-end management investment company.
