InfraCap MLP ETF (NYSE Arca: AMZA) Declares Monthly Distribution
NEW YORK, Dec. 19, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The InfraCap MLP ETF (NYSE Arca: AMZA) (the "Fund") has declared a monthly distribution of $0.22 ($2.64 per share on an annualized basis). The distribution will be paid January 17, 2023 to shareholders of record as of the close of business January 11, 2023.
AMZA Cash Distribution:
- Ex-Date: Tuesday, January 10, 2023
- Record Date: Wednesday, January 11, 2023
- Payable Date: Tuesday, January 17, 2023
The Fund estimates that 100 percent of the distribution, or $0.22 per share, is attributable to return of capital and that 0.00 percent, or $0.00 per share, is attributable to dividend income. Infrastructure Capital Advisors expects to declare future distributions on a monthly basis. Distributions are planned, but not guaranteed, for every month.
November/December Tax Note - MLPs are taxed as partnerships to pass on tax benefits to shareholders. MLPs issue K-1s to AMZA after the calendar year end. AMZA is structured as a C-Corporation so that investors receive one 1099 instead of receiving many K-1s from the underlying MLPs. Due to the timing of the Fund's fiscal year end (October 31), AMZA pays the November and December distributions in January. This distribution schedule helps to facilitate the timely and accurate 1099 preparation each tax year.

Fund Risks
Exchange Traded Funds: The value of an ETF may be more volatile than the underlying portfolio of securities the ETF is designed to track. The costs of owning the ETF may exceed the cost of investing directly in the underlying securities.
MLP Interest Rates: As yield-based investments, MLPs carry interest rate risk and may underperform in rising interest rate environments. Additionally, when investors have heightened fears about the economy, the risk spread between MLPs and competing investment options can widen, which may have an adverse effect on the stock price of MLPs. Rising interest rates may increase the potential cost of MLPs financing projects or cost of operations, and may affect the demand for MLP investments, either of which may result in lower performance by or distributions from the Fund's MLP investments.
Industry/Sector Concentration: A fund that focuses its investments in a particular industry or sector will be more sensitive to conditions that affect that industry or sector than a non-concentrated fund.
Short Sales: The Fund may engage in short sales, and may experience a loss if the price of a borrowed security increases before the date on which the Fund replaces the security.
Leverage: When a Fund leverages its portfolio, the value of its shares may be more volatile and all other risks may be compounded.
Derivatives: Investments in derivatives such as futures, options, forwards, and swaps may increase volatility or cause a loss greater than the principal investment.
MLPs: Investments in Master Limited Partnerships may be adversely impacted by tax law changes, regulation, or factors affecting underlying assets.
No Guarantee: There is no guarantee that the portfolio will meet its objective.
