News for Invesco High Income Trust II (VLT) focuses heavily on its dividend activity, distribution policies, and managed distribution framework as a closed-end fund. Regular press releases from Invesco’s Board of Trustees announce declared and paid monthly dividends, including ex-dates, record dates, reinvest dates, and payable dates for VLT common shares.
A recurring theme in VLT news is the fund’s Managed Distribution Plan, known as the VLT Plan. Effective August 1, 2018, the Board approved this plan, under which the fund increased its monthly dividend to a stated fixed monthly distribution amount based on a distribution rate of 8.5 percent of the closing market price per share as of that date. News items often reiterate that the plan is intended to provide shareholders with a consistent, but not guaranteed, periodic cash payment.
Press releases also explain how distributions may be sourced from net investment income, net realized capital gains, and return of capital. Invesco frequently notes that a portion of VLT’s distributions may be estimated as a return of principal and that such amounts are detailed in Section 19(a) Notices. These notices and related releases clarify that estimates are not for tax reporting and that final tax character is determined after the end of the year.
Investors following VLT news can expect updates on monthly dividend amounts, the estimated composition of distributions, performance and distribution rate information based on net asset value, and reminders about the risks of closed-end fund investing. Because the Board may review, amend, or terminate the VLT Plan, news items also highlight that distribution levels and policies are subject to change.
For those tracking income-focused strategies, the VLT news stream offers ongoing insight into how the fund applies its managed distribution approach and how its distributions relate to investment income, capital gains, and potential return of capital.
