The Board of Trustees of Managed Portfolio Series has determined to close and liquidate the Tortoise Cloud Infrastructure Fund (Cboe BZX: TCLD). After the close of business on Dec. 30, 2019, the fund will no longer accept orders for new creation units. Trading in shares of the fund will be halted prior to market open on Dec. 31, 2019. Proceeds of the liquidation will be sent to shareholders promptly after Dec. 31, 2019.
Prior to Dec.31, 2019, shareholders may only be able to sell their shares to certain broker-dealers, and there is no assurance that there will be a market for the fund’s shares during that time period. Customary brokerage charges may apply to such transactions. The fund will liquidate immediately after the close of business on Dec. 31, 2019.
Effective immediately, the fund will begin liquidating its portfolio assets. This will cause the fund to increase its cash holdings and as a result may deviate from the investment objective and strategies stated in the fund’s prospectus for a short period prior to that distribution. On or about the liquidation date, the fund will liquidate its assets and distribute cash pro rata to all remaining shareholders. These distributions are taxable events. Shareholders should contact their tax adviser to discuss the income tax consequences of the liquidation. In addition, these payments to shareholders will include accrued capital gains and dividends, if any. As calculated on the liquidation date, the fund’s net asset value will reflect the costs of closing the fund. Once the distributions are complete, the fund will terminate.
