PIMCO Corporate & Income Opportunity Fund (PTY) may offer and sell Common Shares with an aggregate offering price of up to $1,500,000,000 through JonesTrading as agent, in negotiated transactions or at the market. The Fund will receive net proceeds from completed sales and invest them under its investment objective and policies. It anticipates investing substantially all proceeds within approximately 30 days of receipt, depending on the amount and timing of proceeds and availability of investments consistent with its policies, except amounts held for dividends, expenses or temporary defensive purposes.
JonesTrading may receive compensation of up to 1.00% of gross proceeds. The Fund may not sell shares below current NAV, exclusive of distributing commissions or discounts. As of August 31, 2026, PTY had 221,883,890 Common Shares outstanding; the last reported sale price was $11.77 and NAV was $11.34 per share. Annual expenses are estimated at 1.52% of net assets attributable to Common Shares, reflecting leverage through reverse repurchase agreements. Stated investment risks include high-yield debt, foreign and mortgage-related securities, and leverage.
PIMCO Corporate & Income Opportunity Fund (PTY) reports on its fiscal year ended June 30, 2026, delivering strong long-term performance and high income but with meaningful use of leverage and derivatives. At June 30, 2026, PTY’s net asset value (NAV) was $11.49 per share and the market price was $12.03, a 4.61% premium to NAV.
For the period ended June 30, 2026, average annual total return at NAV was 10.81% for 1 year, 8.25% for 5 years and 11.34% for 10 years, compared with the ICE BofA US High Yield Index at 5.75%, 4.13% and 5.70%, respectively. The market-price total return was weaker over 1 year at (3.01)% due to premium compression, but remained high over 10 years at 9.37%.
PTY emphasizes below-investment-grade credit and loan exposures: major allocations include 30.4% in loan participations and assignments and 29.8% in corporate bonds and notes. Total effective leverage is 29.07%, primarily through reverse repurchase agreements, and the expense ratio to common shareholders is 1.52%. The Fund’s market-price distribution rate is 11.85% (12.40% on NAV), supported by substantial net investment income but also by strategies such as paired swap transactions that can create ordinary income while potentially increasing capital losses and NAV volatility. The report highlights significant interest-rate, credit, liquidity, geopolitical and banking-sector risks that can negatively affect NAV, market price, and the sustainability of distributions.

PIMCO Corporate & Income Opportunity Fund filed a Supplement dated June 24, 2026 that amends its Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information effective immediately. The supplement expands and clarifies that the Fund may invest in and/or originate loans (including whole loans, participations, assignments, secured and unsecured notes, senior and second lien loans, mezzanine and bridge loans) across corporate, consumer and mortgage-related exposures, including foreign borrowers.
The supplement states the Fund may invest without limit in mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities and will not normally invest more than 20% of total assets in debt instruments rated CCC or lower by S&P/Fitch or Caa1 or lower by Moody’s at purchase. The Fund may hold stressed, distressed or defaulted issuers and use credit default swaps; it may originate loans directly and hold them through wholly owned subsidiaries, subject to RIC qualification constraints and applicable licensing requirements.
PIMCO Corporate & Income Opportunity Fund (PTY) is changing its investment policies to take on more flexible, higher-risk credit strategies. Effective June 24, 2026, the Fund may, as a principal strategy, invest in and originate a wide range of loans to corporations, individuals and foreign borrowers, including subprime and below-investment-grade credits of various seniorities.
Effective July 24, 2026, the Fund may also invest without limit in defaulted bonds, subject to existing credit-quality limits such as normally keeping no more than 20% of total assets in non-ABS debt rated CCC/Caa1 or lower. The supplement details extensive risks around loan origination, illiquidity, subordination, regulatory licensing and potential litigation, and notes that many costs of originating and financing loans will be borne by the Fund rather than its adviser.
PIMCO Corporate & Income Opportunity Fund is revising its investment policy: effective August 28, 2026 the Fund will invest, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in corporate debt obligations and/or income-producing investments, which may include instruments of non-corporate issuers. The revision expressly lists income-producing Fixed Income Instruments, dividend-paying equities, and derivatives that produce income or premium payments as within the 80% Policy. The prospectus supplement also states derivatives that provide exposure to policy investments or their market risk factors are expected to count toward the 80% Policy, clarifies derivative valuation methods (market, notional, or full exposure value), and requires the Fund to give shareholders at least 60 days written notice before changing the 80% Policy.
