FIRST TRUST ANNOUNCES SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL OF FIRST TRUST DYNAMIC EUROPE EQUITY INCOME FUND’S REORGANIZATION INTO FIRST TRUST ACTIVE GLOBAL QUALITY INCOME ETF

First Trust Advisors L.P. (“FTA”) announced today that shareholders of First Trust Dynamic Europe Equity Income Fund (NYSE: FDEU), a closed-end management investment company, managed by FTA and sub-advised by Janus Henderson Investors, have approved the reorganization of FDEU into First Trust Active Global Quality Income ETF (“AGQI”), an actively managed exchange-traded fund (“ETF”) that will be traded on the NYSE Arca and will be managed by FTA and sub-advised by Janus Henderson Investors. As previously announced, the reorganization was approved by the Boards of Trustees of FDEU and AGQI on March 22, 2023. Subject to the satisfaction of certain customary closing conditions, the reorganization of FDEU into AGQI is expected to close on or around November 20, 2023. No assurance can be given as to the exact timing of the closing of the transaction.

Upon the completion of the reorganization, which is expected to be tax-free, the assets of FDEU will be transferred to, and the liabilities of FDEU will be assumed by, AGQI. The shareholders of FDEU will receive shares of AGQI with a value equal to the aggregate net asset value of the shares of FDEU held by them.

FDEU is a diversified, closed-end management investment company that seeks to provide a high level of current income with a secondary focus on capital appreciation. Under normal market conditions, FDEU pursues its investment objectives by investing at least 80% of its Managed Assets in a portfolio of equity securities of European companies of any market capitalization, including, but not limited to, common and preferred stocks that pay dividends, depositary receipts, and real estate investment trusts. “Managed Assets” means the total asset value of FDEU minus the sum of FDEU’s liabilities other than the principal amount of borrowings, if any.

AGQI is an actively managed ETF that seeks income with the potential for capital growth over the longer-term. AGQI pursues these investment objectives by investing primarily in income-producing equity securities, and will typically invest at least 40% of its net asset in securities of issuers or companies that are economically tied to different countries throughout the world, excluding the United States.
