DENVER, CO / ACCESS Newswire / June 13, 2025 / 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, 2026:
Clough Global Equity Fund (NYSE MKT:GLQ)
Clough Global Opportunities Fund (NYSE MKT:GLO)
Clough Global Dividend & Income Fund (NYSE MKT: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, 2025, 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.
