TORONTO, Nov. 29, 2024 /CNW/ - Manulife Investment Management today announced the 2024 annual reinvested distribution estimates for Manulife Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) and for ETF series of Manulife Mutual Funds, including of Manulife Alternative Mutual Funds (Manulife Funds). These annual reinvested distributions generally represent realized capital gains within the ETFs or ETF series of a Manulife Fund. Please note that these are estimated capital gains amounts only as of November 1, 2024, and reflect forward-looking information which may cause these estimates to change.
Unitholders of record at the close of business on December 30, 2024, will receive the 2024 reinvested distributions. The distributions will not be paid in cash but will be reinvested automatically in additional units of the respective ETFs or ETF series of Manulife Funds and immediately consolidated so that the number of units held by each unitholder, and the net asset value of the ETFs or ETF series of Manulife Funds will not change because of the distributions. Unitholders holding their units outside registered plans will have taxable amounts to report and an increase in the adjusted cost base of their investment.
The actual distribution amounts, including the tax characteristics, will be reported to brokers through Clearing and Depository Services Inc. in early 2025.
Please note that the cash distributions are reported separately and may be applicable for some ETFs or ETF series of Manulife Funds making annual reinvested distributions.
Details of the estimated reinvested distribution per unit amounts are as follows:

Manulife Alternative Mutual Funds have the ability to invest in asset classes or use investment strategies that are not permitted for conventional mutual funds. The specific strategies that differentiate these alternative mutual funds from conventional mutual funds may include the increased use of derivatives for hedging and non-hedging purposes, the increased ability to sell securities short and the ability to borrow cash to use for investment purposes. If undertaken, these strategies will be used in accordance with the funds' objectives and strategies, and during certain market conditions, may accelerate the pace at which the funds decrease in value.
