BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Tri-Continental Corporation (the 鈥淐orporation鈥�) (NYSE: TY) today declared a fourth quarter ordinary income distribution of $0.2850 per share of Common Stock and $0.6250 per share of Preferred Stock. In addition, the Corporation declared a total capital gain distribution of $1.9520 per share of Common Stock. This capital gain distribution consists of short-term capital gains of $0.3669 and long-term capital gains of $1.5851. Distributions on Common Stock will be paid on December 23, 2024, to Common Stockholders of record on December 13, 2024, and dividends on Preferred Stock will be paid on January 2, 2025 to Preferred Stockholders of record on December 13, 2024. The ex-dividend date for both the Common Stock and the Preferred Stock is December 13, 2024. The $0.2850 per share ordinary income distribution and the $1.9520 per share capital gain distribution on the Common Stock is in accordance with the Corporation鈥檚 distribution policy. The capital gain distribution, being a special distribution, will be paid in stock except that any stockholder of record as of December 13, 2024, may elect to receive such distribution as follows: 75% in shares and 25% in cash; 50% in shares and 50% in cash; or 100% in cash.

The Corporation has paid dividends on its common stock for 80 consecutive years. The Corporation鈥檚 investment manager is Columbia Management Investment Advisers, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ameriprise Financial, Inc.

The Corporation鈥檚 distributions on common stock will vary. The Corporation鈥檚 current distributions (as estimated by the Corporation based on current information) are from the earnings and profits of the Corporation. No amount of the Corporation鈥檚 current distribution consists of a return of capital (i.e., a return of some or all of your original investment in the Corporation).

The net asset value of the Corporation鈥檚 common shares may not always correspond to the market price of such shares. Shares of many closed-end funds frequently trade at a discount from their net asset value. An investment in the Corporation is subject to stock market risk, which is the risk that market prices for the Corporation鈥檚 common shares may decline over short or long periods, adversely affecting the value of an investment in the Corporation.

Securities selected for the Corporation using quantitative methods may perform differently from the market as a whole, and there can be no assurance that this methodology will enable it to achieve its objective. The Corporation鈥檚 portfolio investments are subject to market risk, which may affect a single issuer, sector of the economy, industry or the market as a whole. Fixed-income investments, including convertible securities, are subject to credit risk, interest rate risk, and prepayment and extension risk. These risks may be more pronounced for longer-term securities and high-yield securities (鈥渏unk bonds鈥�). In general, bond prices rise when interest rates fall and vice versa. Convertible securities are subject to both the risks of their security type prior to conversion as well as their security type after conversion. The Corporation鈥檚 use of leverage, including through its preferred stock, exposes it to greater risks due to unanticipated market movements, which may magnify losses and increase volatility of returns.

You should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses of the Corporation carefully before investing. A prospectus containing information about the Corporation (including its investment objectives, risks, charges, expenses, and other information) may be obtained by contacting your financial advisor or Columbia Management Investment Services Corp. at 800-345-6611. The prospectus can also be found on the Securities and Exchange Commission鈥檚 EDGAR database. The prospectus should be read carefully before investing in the Corporation. There is no guarantee that the Corporation鈥檚 investment goals/objectives will be met or that distributions will be made, and you could lose money.
