GAMCO Nat Res Gold & Income Stock Price, News & Analysis

GAMCO Natural Resources, Gold & Income Trust (NYSE: GNT) is exploring a tax benefit preservation plan to protect over $74 million in capital loss carryforwards (CLCFs) as of March 31, 2025. The plan aims to prevent an "ownership change" under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, which could limit the Fund's use of CLCFs.

The proposed plan would discourage shareholders from accumulating 4.9% or more of Fund shares without Board approval. If implemented, the Fund would issue rights to common shareholders, allowing them to purchase additional shares if certain ownership thresholds are exceeded.

Key points:

• CLCFs have no expiration date under current law
• Plan targets to prevent >50% ownership increase by 5% stockholders over 3 years
• Implementation details pending Board's final decision
• No guarantee plan will prevent ownership change if adopted

GAMCO Natural Resources, Gold & Income Trust (NYSE:GNT) has announced the continuation of its monthly cash distribution policy. The Board of Trustees declared distributions of $0.04 per share for April, May, and June 2025. This follows a 33% increase in annual distribution to $0.48 per share that began in October 2024.

The distributions are expected to primarily constitute a return of capital for tax purposes in 2025. The Fund's Board regularly reviews potential distributions considering income, realized capital gains, and available capital. Due to no capital loss carryforwards for book purposes, the Fund may distribute short-term gains from option premiums that won't be taxable in 2025.

Investors should note that the Fund's NAV per share fluctuates with market values, and distributions are subject to modification. The final determination of distribution sources will be made after year-end, with shareholders receiving Form 1099-DIV in early 2026.
