Eaton Vance 2021 Target Term Trust Announces Liquidation Details


BOSTON, June 1, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Eaton Vance 2021 Target Term Trust (NYSE: EHT) (the "Trust") announced today new details concerning its liquidation. Consistent with its investment objectives and organizational documents, the Trust plans to terminate its existence and liquidate on or about July 1, 2021.

As the Trust approaches liquidation, its common shares will continue trading on the New York Stock Exchange through Friday, June 25, 2021 and will be suspended from trading before the open of trading on Monday, June 28, 2021. The Trust will not declare its regular monthly distribution in June 2021 and expects that all undistributed net income will be included in the final liquidating distribution.  The Trust anticipates making its final liquidating distribution on or about July 1, 2021.

As previously announced, the Trust entered its wind-up period in anticipation of its termination. Leading up to the final distribution date, as the Trust's portfolio securities continue to mature and are sold, the Trust may further deviate from its investment objectives and policies, and its portfolio will continue to transition into high quality, short-term securities and/or cash and cash equivalents.

The investment objective to return the Trust's original $9.85 net asset value ("NAV") per share to shareholders at termination is not a guarantee and is dependent on a number of factors, including the cumulative level of income retained in relation to cumulative portfolio gains net of losses. Over the life of the Trust through May 28, 2021, the Trust has realized cumulative total return at NAV of 5.04% annually.  As of May 28, 2021, the Trust's NAV was $9.85 per share.

Shareholders may recognize a gain or loss for U.S. tax purposes as a result of the liquidation. Eaton Vance Management does not provide tax advice; investors should consult a professional tax advisor regarding their specific tax situation.

Eaton Vance Corp. was acquired by Morgan Stanley on March 1, 2021. Its former Eaton Vance Management, Parametric, Atlanta Capital and Calvert investment affiliates are now part of Morgan Stanley Investment Management, the asset management division of Morgan Stanley. 

Shares of closed-end funds often trade at a discount from their net asset value. The market price of Trust shares may vary from net asset value based on factors affecting the supply and demand for shares, such as Trust distribution rates relative to similar investments, investors' expectations for future distribution changes, the clarity of the Trust's investment strategy and future return expectations, and investors' confidence in the underlying markets in which the Trust invests. Trust shares are subject to investment risk, including possible loss of principal invested. The Trust is not a complete investment program and you may lose money investing therein. An investment in the Trust may not be appropriate for all investors.
