Tender Offer Expires Heavily Oversubscribed

Buyback Tied to King Street Approval
The liquidity plan was announced July 27, 2026 as contingent on shareholder approval of the King Street/Rockford Tower sub-advisory agreement; the offer's completion follows that proxy contest.
Analysis · XFLT · Unknown
The buyback the Board promised during the proxy fight actually cleared, and demand was far heavier than the shares on offer: about 7.33M shares tendered against 1.90M sought, so holders got roughly a quarter of what they submitted — a 26.01% proration factor, subject to rounding adjustment to avoid the purchase of fractional shares. For a closed-end fund trading at a discount, that is a real liquidity event, and it removes about 12.5% of the share count at 98% of NAV — a modest accretion to the NAV of the shares that remain. The final tally: 1,903,861 shares bought at $21.0602 for $154,392,768.46, leaving 13,327,023 shares outstanding. The catch is that the tender was contingent on the King Street sub-advisory arrangement, so its completion confirms that fight has been settled in the Board's favor.
