DENVER, June 29, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Clough Global Dividend and Income Fund (the "Fund") is pleased to announce the successful completion of its rights offering, and the final results thereof. The Fund will issue a total of 2,807,451 new common shares as a result of the rights offering which closed on June 22, 2021 (the "Expiration Date"). This number of new shares represents one-third of the shares outstanding immediately preceding the rights offering. 

The subscription price of $10.15 per share was established on the Expiration Date based upon a formula equal to 95% of the reported market price per share, based on the average of the last reported sales price of a common share on the NYSE American for the five trading days preceding the Expiration Date.

Chairman, Portfolio Manager and Co-Chief Investment Officer Chuck Clough added, "These offerings allow our team to continue to make new investments in innovative sectors and timely trends without the need to reduce existing core holdings at inopportune times."
