2025 year-end distribution estimates

Capital Gain Distribution

Capital Gain Distributions

The estimated long-term and short-term capital gain distributions for 2025 are listed below. The actual distribution amounts will be based on gains and losses realized through October 31 (or later for certain funds). As such, the estimates below may differ from amounts actually distributed in December. The funds' long-term approach to investing means that the capital gains realized in a particular year can be the result of an investment held over an extended period of time. The amount of capital gain distributions may vary year over year since the distributions are based on net capital gains realized each year. Some American Funds mutual funds, offered by Capital Group, and exchange-traded funds (ETFs), also paid a midyear capital gain distribution in June. The distribution amounts were based on gains and losses realized through the end of each fund's most recent fiscal year. Please refer to the 2025 midyear capital gain distributions page for more information.

For American Funds and public-private funds, distributions are based on the fund shares owned at the beginning of the day on the record date. For Capital Group exchange-traded funds, distributions are based on the fund shares owned at the end of the day on the record date.

Dividends

Qualified dividends

Funds that invest in stocks of U.S. corporations and many of those based outside the U.S. pay dividends that qualify for lower tax rates. However, when a fund derives a significant portion of its income from sources such as interest, short-term capital gains and dividends from certain international corporations, a portion of its dividend does not qualify for reduced tax rates. Instead, that portion is taxed at the ordinary income rates. Funds that derive all of their income from investments in bonds, money market instruments and non-dividend-paying investments do not pay qualified dividends.

Preliminary 2025 estimates of the percentage range of each fund's taxable dividends that qualify for lower tax rates are shown below. The final percentages for 2025 could vary. The actual amount of qualified dividends will be reported on the 2025 Form 1099-DIV (available late January).
