share repurchase program financial
"each Fund has renewed its share repurchase program under which it may purchase"
A share repurchase program is when a company buys back its own shares from the marketplace. This reduces the total number of shares available, which can increase the value of each remaining share and signal confidence in the company's prospects. For investors, it often suggests that the company believes its stock is undervalued or that it has extra cash to return to shareholders.
net asset value financial
"when trading at a discount to their net asset value per share"
Net asset value is the total value of an investment fund's assets minus any liabilities, divided by the number of shares or units outstanding. It represents the per-share worth of the fund, similar to how the value of a house is determined by its total worth after debts are subtracted. Investors use it to gauge the true value of their holdings and to compare different investment options.
closed-end fund financial
"Each Fund is a closed-end fund, which does not continuously issue shares"
A closed-end fund is a pool of money collected from many investors to buy a diversified mix of stocks, bonds, or other assets, and it is managed by professionals. Unlike some investment options, its shares are bought and sold on stock exchanges at prices determined by supply and demand, which can be above or below the fund's actual value. This structure allows investors to buy or sell shares easily, but the value may fluctuate based on market conditions.
forward-looking statements regulatory
"Certain statements made on behalf of the Funds may be considered forward-looking statements"
Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.
alternative asset management firm financial
"is a global multi-strategy alternative asset management firm founded in 1999"
An alternative asset management firm is a company that manages investments outside of traditional assets like stocks and bonds, focusing instead on options such as real estate, private companies, or commodities. These firms help investors diversify their portfolios and seek higher returns by exploring different kinds of investments that are less common and often less liquid. Their role is important because they provide access to opportunities that can improve overall investment performance and reduce risk.

Exhibit 99.1

 

CLOUGH CLOSED-END FUNDS ANNOUNCE RENEWAL OF SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAMS

 

Denver, CO - The Boards of Trustees (the "Boards") of the following closed-end funds (the “Funds”) advised by Clough Capital Partners L.P. (the "Adviser" or “Clough Capital”) announced that each Fund has renewed its share repurchase program under which it may purchase up to 5% of its outstanding common shares in open market transactions through June 30, 2027:

 

Clough Global Equity Fund (NYSE American: GLQ)
Clough Global Opportunities Fund (NYSE American: GLO)
Clough Global Dividend & Income Fund (NYSE American: GLV)

 

The share repurchase programs were originally approved in June 2023 and have been renewed annually thereafter. These programs are designed to enhance shareholder value by permitting the Funds to purchase their shares when trading at a discount to their net asset value per share. Since the June 2023 commencement of the share repurchase programs through May 30, 2026, GLV, GLQ and GLO have repurchased 299,900, 386,500 and 779,500 shares, respectively.

 

The amount and timing of repurchases will be at the discretion of the Adviser, subject to market conditions and investment considerations. There is no assurance that the Funds will purchase shares at any particular discount levels or in any particular amounts. Any repurchases made under these programs will be made on a national securities exchange at the prevailing market price, subject to exchange requirements and volume, timing and other limitations under federal securities laws. The Funds' repurchase activity will be disclosed in the annual and semi-annual reports to shareholders. The Boards will monitor the share repurchase programs on an ongoing basis, considering a range of strategic options to enhance shareholder value in the long-term.

 

Certain statements made on behalf of the Funds may be considered forward-looking statements. The Funds’ actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated in any forward-looking statements due to numerous factors, including but not limited to a decline in value in the general markets or the Funds' investments specifically. Neither the Funds nor the Adviser undertake any responsibility to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statement.

This press release is not a solicitation to buy or sell fund shares. Each Fund is a closed-end fund, which does not continuously issue shares for sale as open-end mutual funds do. Since the initial public offerings, each Fund now trades in the secondary market. Investors wishing to buy or sell shares need to place orders through an intermediary or broker. The share price of a closed-end fund is based on the market's value and often trade at a discount to their net asset value, which can increase an investor’s risk of loss. All investments are subject to risk, including the risk of loss.
