BALTIMORE, Nov. 10, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Adams Natural Resources Fund, Inc. (NYSE: PEO) declared today a year-end distribution of $1.33 per share. The total distributions by the Fund for 2022 will be $1.63, including the distributions totaling $0.30 per share made prior to today’s announcement. The annual distribution rate represented by these distributions is 8.1%.
The year-end distribution consists of the following:

This marks the 71st consecutive year that the Fund has paid out capital gains and the 88th consecutive year it has paid out dividends to its shareholders.
Commenting on the year-end distribution, Mark E.

While future market conditions are uncertain, we are pleased to announce our 2022 distribution rate of 8.1%. This exceeds our commitment to distribute at least 6% of the Fund’s trailing 12-month average month-end market price to shareholders.”
