A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the shareholder’s investment is paid back to the shareholder. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Fund's investment performance and should not be confused with ‘yield’ or ‘income’. When distributions exceed total return performance, the difference will reduce the Fund’s net asset value per share. The amounts and sources of distributions reported are only estimates and are being provided to you pursuant to regulatory requirements and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon each Fund’s investment experience during the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. The Fund will send you a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that will tell you how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.

Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about a Fund’s investment performance from the amount of the Fund’s current distributions or from the terms of the Fund’s Plan. BlackRock Income Trust, Inc. (NYSE: BKT) and BlackRock Taxable Municipal Bond Trust (NYSE: BBN) have adopted a Plan whereby the Fund will make fixed monthly distributions to common stockholders and will distribute all available net income to its stockholders, consistent with its investment objective and as required by the Code. The fixed amount distributed per share is subject to change at the discretion of BKT and BBN’s Board. If sufficient net income is not available on a monthly basis, a Fund will distribute long-term capital gains and/or return capital to its stockholders in order to maintain a level distribution. BKT and BBN are currently not relying on any exemptive relief from Section 19(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Each Fund expects that distributions under the Plan will exceed current income and capital gains and therefore will likely include a return of capital. BKT and BBN may make additional distributions from time to time, including additional capital gain distributions at the end of the taxable year, if required to meet requirements imposed by the Code and/or the 1940 Act. BKT and BBN’s estimated sources of the distributions paid as of April 28, 2023 and for its current fiscal year are as follows: Estimated Allocations as of April 28, 2023 Fund Distribution Net Income Net Realized Short-Term Gains Net Realized Long-Term Gains Return of Capital BKT2 $0.088200 $0.034947 (40%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.053253 (60%) BBN2 $0.102900 $0.072340 (70%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.030560 (30%) Estimated Allocations for the Fiscal Year through April 28, 2023 Fund Distribution Net Income Net Realized Short-Term Gains Net Realized Long-Term Gains Return of Capital BKT2 $0.352800 $0.139668 (40%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.213132 (60%) BBN2 $0.411600 $0.307446 (75%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.104154 (25%) 2The Fund estimates that it has distributed more than its income and net-realized capital gains in the current fiscal year; therefore, a portion of your distribution may be a return of capital.

BlackRock Announces Release of Fourth Quarter Commentaries for Certain Closed-End Funds (BIGZ, BSTZ, BMEZ, BCAT, ECAT, and BMN)
businesswire.com
2023-02-16 16:30:00NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--BlackRock today announced the release of quarterly fund commentaries for BlackRock Innovation and Growth Trust (NYSE: BIGZ), BlackRock Science and Technology Trust II (NYSE: BSTZ), BlackRock Health Sciences Trust II (NYSE: BMEZ), BlackRock Capital Allocation Trust (NYSE: BCAT), BlackRock ESG Capital Allocation Trust (NYSE: ECAT), and BlackRock 2037 Municipal Target Term Trust (NYSE: BMN) (the “Trusts”) for the fourth quarter of 2022. Learn more about each Trust’s performance and current positioning in its latest commentary: BlackRock Innovation and Growth Trust (BIGZ): BIGZ invests in innovative small- and mid-cap public and private companies along with deploying a tactical single-stock option-writing strategy to generate income and reduce volatility. BIGZ Commentary BlackRock Science and Technology Trust II (BSTZ): BSTZ invests in the technology sector by blending “next generation” technology stocks and private investments with a tactical single-stock option-writing strategy to generate income and reduce volatility. BSTZ Commentary BlackRock Health Sciences Trust II (BMEZ): BMEZ invests in the healthcare sector by blending “next generation” healthcare stocks and private investments along with a tactical single-stock option-writing strategy to generate income and reduce volatility. BMEZ Commentary BlackRock Capital Allocation Trust (BCAT): BCAT takes an unconstrained approach with the ability to invest in public and private markets across different asset classes to generate income. BCAT Commentary BlackRock ESG Capital Allocation Trust (ECAT): ECAT takes an unconstrained approach with an ESG focus and has the ability to invest in public and private markets across different asset classes to generate income. ECAT Commentary BlackRock 2037 Municipal Target Term Trust (BMN): BMN invests in a portfolio of municipal securities with the objectives of providing current income that is exempt from regular federal income tax (but which may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax in certain circumstances) and returning $25 per common share (the initial public offering price per common share) to holders of common shares on or about September 30, 2037. 1 BMN Commentary 1 The Trust will terminate on or about September 30, 2037 in accordance with the terms of its Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust, unless (i) a majority of the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board") and 75% of the outstanding shares of the Trust approve an amendment to the Trust’s Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust to extend the Trust’s termination date or (ii) 80% of the Trust’s Board approves an earlier termination date. The Trust seeks to return $25.00 per common share (the initial public offering price per common share) to holders of common shares on or about September 30, 2037. The Trust’s limited term may cause it to sell securities when it otherwise would not, which could cause the Trust’s returns to decrease and the market price and/or net asset value of the common shares to fall. As the Trust approaches its termination date, BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”) may need to reinvest the proceeds from sold, matured or called securities into securities with shorter maturity dates and lower yields, or hold the proceeds in cash or cash equivalents, which may adversely affect the performance of the Trust or the Trust’s ability to maintain its dividend.

2024-10-24 14:12:59BlackRock 2037 Municipal Target Term Trust offers primarily tax-free income through a diversified muni bond portfolio. BMN's modest leverage with the Fed cutting rates puts the fund in a unique position to potentially start adding further leverage. Despite a lower distribution yield compared to some muni peers, BMN has much stronger distribution coverage, suggesting a more sustainable income stream.

A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the shareholder’s investment is paid back to the shareholder. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Fund's investment performance and should not be confused with ‘yield’ or ‘income’. When distributions exceed total return performance, the difference will reduce the Fund’s net asset value per share. The amounts and sources of distributions reported are only estimates and are being provided to you pursuant to regulatory requirements and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon each Fund’s investment experience during the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations.

Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about a Fund’s investment performance from the amount of the Fund’s current distributions or from the terms of the Fund’s Plan. BlackRock Income Trust, Inc. (NYSE: BKT) and BlackRock Taxable Municipal Bond Trust (NYSE: BBN) have adopted a Plan whereby the Fund will make fixed monthly distributions to common stockholders and will distribute all available net income to its stockholders, consistent with its investment objective and as required by the Code. The fixed amount distributed per share is subject to change at the discretion of BKT and BBN’s Board. If sufficient net income is not available on a monthly basis, a Fund will distribute long-term capital gains and/or return capital to its stockholders in order to maintain a level distribution. BKT and BBN are currently not relying on any exemptive relief from Section 19(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Each Fund expects that distributions under the Plan will exceed current income and capital gains and therefore will likely include a return of capital. BKT and BBN may make additional distributions from time to time, including additional capital gain distributions at the end of the taxable year, if required to meet requirements imposed by the Code and/or the 1940 Act. BKT and BBN’s estimated sources of the distributions paid as of April 28, 2023 and for its current fiscal year are as follows: Estimated Allocations as of April 28, 2023 Fund Distribution Net Income Net Realized Short-Term Gains Net Realized Long-Term Gains Return of Capital BKT2 $0.088200 $0.034947 (40%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.053253 (60%) BBN2 $0.102900 $0.072340 (70%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.030560 (30%) Estimated Allocations for the Fiscal Year through April 28, 2023 Fund Distribution Net Income Net Realized Short-Term Gains Net Realized Long-Term Gains Return of Capital BKT2 $0.352800 $0.139668 (40%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.213132 (60%) BBN2 $0.411600 $0.307446 (75%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.104154 (25%) 2The Fund estimates that it has distributed more than its income and net-realized capital gains in the current fiscal year; therefore, a portion of your distribution may be a return of capital.

The Board may amend the terms of a Plan or suspend or terminate a Plan at any time without prior notice to the Fund’s shareholders if it deems such actions to be in the best interest of the Fund or its shareholders. The amendment or termination of a Plan could have an adverse effect on the market price of the Fund's shares.

BlackRock Announces Release of Fourth Quarter Commentaries for Certain Closed-End Funds (BIGZ, BSTZ, BMEZ, BCAT, ECAT, and BMN)
businesswire.com
2023-02-16 16:30:00NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--BlackRock today announced the release of quarterly fund commentaries for BlackRock Innovation and Growth Trust (NYSE: BIGZ), BlackRock Science and Technology Trust II (NYSE: BSTZ), BlackRock Health Sciences Trust II (NYSE: BMEZ), BlackRock Capital Allocation Trust (NYSE: BCAT), BlackRock ESG Capital Allocation Trust (NYSE: ECAT), and BlackRock 2037 Municipal Target Term Trust (NYSE: BMN) (the “Trusts”) for the fourth quarter of 2022. Learn more about each Trust’s performance and current positioning in its latest commentary: BlackRock Innovation and Growth Trust (BIGZ): BIGZ invests in innovative small- and mid-cap public and private companies along with deploying a tactical single-stock option-writing strategy to generate income and reduce volatility. BIGZ Commentary BlackRock Science and Technology Trust II (BSTZ): BSTZ invests in the technology sector by blending “next generation” technology stocks and private investments with a tactical single-stock option-writing strategy to generate income and reduce volatility. BSTZ Commentary BlackRock Health Sciences Trust II (BMEZ): BMEZ invests in the healthcare sector by blending “next generation” healthcare stocks and private investments along with a tactical single-stock option-writing strategy to generate income and reduce volatility. BMEZ Commentary BlackRock Capital Allocation Trust (BCAT): BCAT takes an unconstrained approach with the ability to invest in public and private markets across different asset classes to generate income. BCAT Commentary BlackRock ESG Capital Allocation Trust (ECAT): ECAT takes an unconstrained approach with an ESG focus and has the ability to invest in public and private markets across different asset classes to generate income. ECAT Commentary BlackRock 2037 Municipal Target Term Trust (BMN): BMN invests in a portfolio of municipal securities with the objectives of providing current income that is exempt from regular federal income tax (but which may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax in certain circumstances) and returning $25 per common share (the initial public offering price per common share) to holders of common shares on or about September 30, 2037. 1 BMN Commentary 1 The Trust will terminate on or about September 30, 2037 in accordance with the terms of its Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust, unless (i) a majority of the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board") and 75% of the outstanding shares of the Trust approve an amendment to the Trust’s Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust to extend the Trust’s termination date or (ii) 80% of the Trust’s Board approves an earlier termination date. The Trust seeks to return $25.00 per common share (the initial public offering price per common share) to holders of common shares on or about September 30, 2037. The Trust’s limited term may cause it to sell securities when it otherwise would not, which could cause the Trust’s returns to decrease and the market price and/or net asset value of the common shares to fall. As the Trust approaches its termination date, BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”) may need to reinvest the proceeds from sold, matured or called securities into securities with shorter maturity dates and lower yields, or hold the proceeds in cash or cash equivalents, which may adversely affect the performance of the Trust or the Trust’s ability to maintain its dividend.
