Principal Real Estate Income Fund Announces Notification of Sources of Distribution

The Principal Real Estate Income Fund (NYSE: PGZ) announced an August 31, 2026 distribution of $0.1050 per share for shareholders of record on August 17, 2026.
The current distribution consists of 49.43% from Net Investment Income ($0.0519) & 50.57% from Return of Capital ($0.0531), with zero contributions from short-term or long-term capital gains.
Fiscal year-to-date cumulative distributions total $1.0500 per share, comprised of 55.53% Net Investment Income & 44.47% Return of Capital.
The Fund estimates distributing more than its income, meaning a portion of payments represents a return of the shareholder's initial investment rather than income or yield.
The actual tax character of the 2026 distributions will be finalized in January 2027 & reported on IRS Form 1099-DIV, as the current figures are GAAP estimates subject to change.
Fund performance data for the period November 1, 2025, through July 31, 2026, shows a cumulative total return on NAV of 6.83% & an annualized distribution rate of 11.39%.
The Board of Trustees monitors the distribution level based on net asset value & market conditions, retaining the right to modify the distribution policy at any time.
ALPS Advisors, Inc. serves as the investment adviser, Principal Real Estate Investors LLC acts as the sub-adviser, & ALPS Portfolio Solutions Distributor, Inc. is the FINRA member.
