Angel Oak Financial Strategies Income Term Trust Declares July 2025 Distribution

Business Wire01-07-2025
ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Angel Oak Financial Strategies Income Term Trust (the 'Fund'), a closed-end fund traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol FINS, today declared a distribution of $0.109 per share for the month of July 2025. The record date for the distribution is July 17, 2025, and the payable date is July 31, 2025. The Fund will trade ex-distribution on July 17, 2025.
The Fund seeks to pay a distribution at a rate that reflects net investment income actually earned. A portion of each distribution may be treated as paid from sources other than net investment income, including but not limited to short-term capital gain, long-term capital gain, or return of capital. As required by Section 19(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, a notice will be distributed to shareholders in the event that a portion of a monthly distribution is derived from sources other than undistributed net investment income. The final determination of the source and tax characteristics of these distributions will depend upon the Fund's investment experience during its fiscal year and will be made after the Fund's year end. The Fund will send to investors a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that will define how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes. Angel Oak does not provide tax advice; shareholders should consult their tax advisor. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect a fund's investment performance and should not be confused with 'yield' or 'income.'

Led by Angel Oak's experienced financial services team, FINS invests predominantly in U.S. financial sector debt as well as selective opportunities across financial sector preferred and common equity. Under normal circumstances, at least 50% of FINS' portfolio is publicly rated investment grade or, if unrated, judged to be of investment grade quality by Angel Oak.

Should You Invest in Spotify (SPOT)?

Technology Innovators focus on pioneering businesses worldwide that serve as key drivers or beneficiaries of significant long-term changes driven by technology. The fund returned 26.0% (net) in the second quarter compared to a 21.9% return for the benchmark, MSCI ACWI Info Tech and Communication Services Index. Easing geopolitical concerns, renewed AI optimism, resilient macroeconomic data, strong corporate earnings, and technical tailwinds boosted the markets for a quick recovery in the quarter. You can check the fund's top 5 holdings to know more about its best picks for 2025. In its second-quarter 2025 investor letter, Sands Capital Technology Innovators Fund highlighted stocks such as Spotify Technology S.A. (NYSE:SPOT). Headquartered in Luxembourg City, Luxembourg, Spotify Technology S.A. (NYSE:SPOT) offers audio streaming subscription services. Spotify Technology S.A. (NYSE:SPOT) shares posted a return of -11.80% over the past month and appreciated by 111.70% over the last 12 months. On July 24, 2025, Spotify Technology S.A. (NYSE:SPOT) stock closed at $681.42 per share, with a market capitalization of $139.729 billion. Sands Capital Technology Innovators Fund stated the following regarding Spotify Technology S.A. (NYSE:SPOT) in its second quarter 2025 investor letter: "Spotify Technology S.A. (NYSE:SPOT) is the world's largest subscription streaming audio service by market share. Recorded music has seen significant distribution shifts—from vinyl to cassette to CDs—over the past 50 years. Today, streaming accounts for the bulk of industry revenue, and we view streaming as the natural end-state, given the consumer value proposition and balance of power between artists and labels. Within streaming, Spotify has outsized market share and user engagement. This has resulted in relatively inelastic demand and, in turn, pricing power. We ultimately view the addressable market as anyone with internet access globally. Unlike with video streaming, consumers tend to subscribe to only a single audio streaming service. Spotify's leadership position has become further entrenched with music labels' growing dependence on streaming revenue. Over our five-year horizon, we expect gross margin improvement from advertising and partnership agreements with labels, with operating margin improvement also driven by cost discipline."
