abrdn Asia-Pacific Income Fund VCC (FAP) Provides Details on Trading Discount Redemption Trigger Calculation Methodology

TORONTO, Aug. 26, 2026 /CNW/ -- abrdn Asia-Pacific Income Fund VCC (TSX: FAP) (UEN: T21VC0235H) (the "Company"), a closed-end investment company trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange, is providing details on the methodology used to determine whether the Company's Trading Discount Redemption Trigger has been met.

On March 14, 2025, shareholders approved amendments to the Company's Constitution such that shareholders would be permitted to tender for redemption, when the redemption conditions are met, up to 100% of the outstanding shares. 

The redemption conditions are such that shares will be offered for redemption if the volume weighted average trading price of the Shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange during the 12-month period ending on the last Business Day of December of each year, represents a discount to the average daily net asset value per Share during such period greater than 12.0%.

The "volume weighted average trading price of the Shares" is determined using the Company's daily closing Share price on the Toronto Stock Exchange, weighted by each day's trading volume over the applicable 12-month measurement period.

The Company remains committed to maintaining clear and consistent communications with shareholders regarding its discount management mechanisms and other matters affecting shareholder value.

Important Information
Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about the Company's investment performance from the amount of the Company's current distribution. The amounts and sources of distributions set out above are estimates only and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The final determination of the source of all distributions made in 2026 will be made after the end of the 2026 calendar year. The actual amounts and sources of distributions for tax reporting purposes will depend on the Company's results during the remainder of the calendar year and are subject to changes in applicable tax regulations. Information for tax reporting purposes will be provided to the Company's shareholders on Form T5 in February 2027.

Shares of closed-end funds are listed for trading on national securities exchanges and are bought and sold in the secondary market. The market price of a fund's shares is determined by supply and demand and may be greater than (a "premium") or less than (a "discount") the fund's net asset value (NAV). A fund's investment return and principal value will fluctuate, and investors may receive more or less than their original investment upon the sale of shares. There is no assurance that a fund will achieve its investment objective. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

The trading price of a closed-end fund's shares may be influenced by various factors, including market conditions, investor sentiment, and other external forces, and is not directly controlled by the fund, its Board of Directors, or its investment adviser. As a result, shares may trade at a premium to or discount from NAV at any given time. A premium to NAV may not be sustained, and a discount to NAV may increase or decrease over time. Investors should consider these risks when purchasing or selling closed-end fund shares.

Shareholders whose fund shares trade at a premium to NAV and who participate in the fund's dividend reinvestment plan should be aware that distributions may be reinvested at prices above NAV, which may adversely affect investment results.
