Key Terms

federal income tax regulatory

Federal income tax is the portion of earnings that individuals and businesses must pay to the national government based on their taxable income, similar to a mandatory fee taken from paychecks or profits. It matters to investors because it reduces the cash they actually keep from wages, dividends or capital gains and influences corporate decisions, valuations and after‑tax returns—so changes in rates or rules can alter investment value and behavior.

(NYSE: EFC) (the "Company") today announced that information regarding the federal income tax treatment of the distributions deemed paid in 2025 on the Company's common and preferred stock has been posted to the Company’s website, at the following links.
