Goldman Sachs MLP Income Opportunities Fund Announces Quarterly Distribution of $0.205 Per Share

Business Wire
Goldman Sachs MLP Income Opportunities Fund (the “Fund”)
(NYSE:GMZ) is announcing its quarterly distribution of $0.205
per common share.1 The distribution is payable on the date noted
below.
As the midstream sector has experienced a period of
unprecedented volatility, the portfolio management team has taken
numerous steps, including eliminating fund-level leverage, which we
believe protects shareholder capital, and repositioning the Fund’s
investments to withstand continued midstream volatility.
“We understand that investors highly value the income portion of
the Fund’s total return and while the reduction is substantial, we
believe it necessary in order to align the Fund’s payout with its
cash flow receipts. Additionally, this new distribution level will
allow for additional flexibility in the Fund’s portfolio. We
appreciate our investors’ continued ownership of the Fund and will
continue to evaluate all options in order to maximize shareholder
value going forward,” said Portfolio Manager Kyri Loupis.
The distribution schedule is as follows:
Ex-Date:
May 21, 2020
Record Date:
May 22, 2020
Payable Date:
May 29, 2020
Amount:
$0.205 per share
It is currently anticipated that a portion of this distribution
will be treated for tax purposes as a return of capital, however,
the final characterization of such distribution will be made in
early 2021 when the Fund can determine its earnings and profits for
the full year. The final tax status of the distribution may differ
substantially from this preliminary information.
In addition, portfolio holdings as of March 31, 2020, as well as
additional information regarding the Fund, can be accessed through
the GSAM Closed-End Fund landing page at www.GSAMFUNDS.com/cef.

potential conflicts of interest risk, cash flow risks, dilution
risks and trading risks.
