10:31 AM EDT, 04/01/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Ellington Credit ( EARN ) said Tuesday it has completed its conversion to a Delaware-based closed-end fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

As part of this change, the fund will sell its remaining agency mortgage-backed securities pools, buy more corporate collateralized loan obligations, and operate as a regulated investment firm for tax purposes, it said.

The fund will also shift its fiscal year to end on March 31, just before the conversion, Ellington said.

Shares were up 2% in recent trading.
