Columbia Seligman Premium Technology Growth Fund (ISIN US19842X1090) declared a USD 0.4625 per-share fourth-quarter distribution on October 9, 2026, according to Business Wire. The payment date was October 27, 2026, for holders of record on October 19, 2026.

Distribution is funded by gains

The declared payment equals a 9.25 percent annualized rate based on the fund's USD 20.00 initial offering price. Against the fund's USD 53.77 market price on September 30, 2026, the distribution represented a 3.44 percent annualized rate, according to Business Wire. The estimated breakdown assigned 100.00 percent of the payment to net realized long-term capital gains.

Through the payment date, 2026 distributions totaled USD 1.8500 per share, with the same estimated source. The fund's policy permits periodic distributions of long-term capital gains, so the payout rate is not a direct measure of portfolio income.

What does performance add?

The fund reported a 55.36 percent cumulative total NAV return for the year-to-date period ended September 30, 2026. Its average annual total NAV return for the five years ended on that date was 23.82 percent, while the annualized distribution rate based on NAV was 3.23 percent, according to FT. The comparison shows why the distribution should be assessed alongside NAV performance rather than as a standalone return measure.

Next distribution timing

The October 9 release anticipates a subsequent managed-policy distribution in February and another payment before the end of 2026. It also identifies technology-company concentration, derivatives exposure and closed-end fund discounts as material investment risks.
