These funds make distributions in accordance with a managed distribution plan that provides for the declaration of monthly distributions (in the case of the Allspring Income Opportunities Fund, the Allspring Multi-Sector Income Fund and the Allspring Utilities and High Income Fund) or quarterly distributions (in the case of the Allspring Global Dividend Opportunity Fund) to common shareholders of the fund at an annual minimum fixed rate of 8% for the Allspring Utilities and High Income Fund, 8.75% for the Allspring Income Opportunities Fund, 8.75% for the Allspring Multi-Sector Income Fund, and 9% for the Allspring Global Dividend Opportunity Fund based on the fund’s average monthly net asset value (NAV) per share over the prior 12 months. Under the managed distribution plan, distributions are sourced from income and also may be sourced from paid-in capital and/or capital gains. The fund’s distributions in any period may be more or less than the net return earned by the fund on its investments and therefore should not be used as a measure of performance or confused with yield or income. Distributions in excess of fund returns will cause the fund’s NAV to decline. Investors should not draw any conclusions about the fund’s investment performance from the amount of its distribution or from the terms of its managed distribution plan.

The Allspring Income Opportunities Fund is a closed-end high-yield bond fund. The fund’s investment objective is to seek a high level of current income. The fund may, as a secondary objective, seek capital appreciation to the extent it is consistent with its investment objective.

The Allspring Multi-Sector Income Fund is a closed-end income fund. The fund’s investment objective is to seek a high level of current income consistent with limiting its overall exposure to domestic interest rate risk.

The Allspring Utilities and High Income Fund is a closed-end equity and high-yield bond fund. The fund’s investment objective is to seek a high level of current income and moderate capital growth with an emphasis on providing tax-advantaged dividend income.

The Allspring Global Dividend Opportunity Fund is a closed-end equity and high-yield bond fund. The fund’s investment objective is to seek a high level of current income. The fund’s secondary objective is long-term growth of capital.

The final determination of the source of all dividend distributions in the current year will be made after year-end. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax-reporting purposes will depend upon a fund’s investment experience during the remainder of the fiscal year and may be subject to change based on tax regulations. Each fund will send shareholders a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that will tell shareholders how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.

For more information on Allspring’s closed-end funds, please visit www.allspringglobal.com.

Shares of these closed-end funds are only available for purchase and sale at the current market price on the stock exchange on which it is listed. Shares of a fund may trade at either a premium or discount relative to the fund’s net asset value, and there can be no assurance that any discount will decrease. The values of, and/or the income generated by, securities held by a fund may decline due to general market conditions or other factors, including those directly involving the issuers of such securities.

Equity securities fluctuate in value in response to factors specific to the issuer of the security. Debt securities are subject to credit risk and interest rate risk, and high-yield securities and unrated securities of similar credit quality have a much greater risk of default and their values tend to be more volatile than higher-rated securities with similar maturities. Foreign investments may contain more risk due to the inherent risks associated with changing political climates, foreign market instability, and foreign currency fluctuations. Risks of international investing are magnified in emerging or developing markets. Funds that concentrate their investments in a single industry or sector may face increased risk of price fluctuation over more diversified funds due to adverse developments within that industry or sector. Small- and mid-cap securities may be subject to special risks associated with narrower product lines and limited financial resources compared with their large-cap counterparts. Each fund is leveraged through a revolving credit facility and also may incur leverage by issuing preferred shares in the future.

The use of leverage results in certain risks, including, among others, the likelihood of greater volatility of the net asset value and the market price of common shares. Derivatives involve additional risks, including interest rate risk, credit risk, the risk of improper valuation, and the risk of noncorrelation to the relevant instruments they are designed to hedge or closely track. There are numerous risks associated with transactions in options on securities.

Allspring Global Investments™ is the trade name for the asset management firms of Allspring Global Investments Holdings, LLC, a holding company indirectly owned by certain private funds of GTCR LLC and Reverence Capital Partners, L.P. These firms include but are not limited to Allspring Global Investments, LLC, and Allspring Funds Management, LLC.

Redox and Lapsi Health Collaborate to Bring Industry-Leading AI-Powered Tools Directly Into EHR Workflows

Published

on

By

Fragmented Clinical Workflows Stall Enterprise AI Adoption. Lapsi Health and Redox Connect AI Documentation, Clinical Reference, and Diagnostic Support Directly Into the EHR So Clinicians Never Have to Leave the Chart.

MADISON, Wis. and AMSTERDAM, July 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Redox and Lapsi Health today announced a collaboration aimed at addressing one of healthcare’s biggest challenges: workflow fragmentation.

As health systems and other healthcare organizations rapidly adopt AI technologies, clinicians are often forced to navigate multiple disconnected systems for documentation, clinical research, diagnostics, and patient care. While AI capabilities continue to improve, implementation and adoption stagnate when those tools fail to integrate into existing clinical workflows.

Together, Lapsi Health and Redox are helping healthcare organizations overcome that challenge by connecting the Keikku Clinical Platform with existing EHR infrastructure.

Keikku is an AI clinical platform that combines AI-powered documentation, contextual clinical reference, diagnostic support, and purpose-built clinical hardware within a single connected workflow. As Lapsi Health’s healthcare data interoperability partner, Redox provides a direct path to integrate with health systems’ EHRs, without building each connection from scratch. That’s possible through Redox’s Connection Network, spanning more than 12,000 healthcare organizations and systems, including over 100 EHRs, as well as revenue cycle platforms, state and regional HIEs, and more.

“Healthcare doesn’t need more disconnected AI tools. Teams need solutions that integrate naturally into existing clinical workflows,” said Rodrigo Alvez, Chief Technology Officer at Lapsi Health. “Our collaboration with Redox helps healthcare organizations reduce integration complexity, accelerate implementation, and connect AI-powered clinical intelligence with the systems clinicians already rely on every day.”

Redox recently launched an industry-leading suite of AI capabilities built to help integration teams move faster, reinforcing its role as the healthcare data infrastructure layer that AI-powered applications like Keikku depend on to run in production.

By combining Keikku’s clinical AI platform with Redox’s interoperability capabilities, organizations can simplify implementation and create a more connected clinical experience.

“The question healthcare organizations are asking isn’t whether AI is ready; it’s how to get it running in their production environment without a twelve-month implementation and a dedicated team to maintain it,” said Rachel Witalec, Chief Product Officer at Redox. “What Redox brings to this collaboration is a data infrastructure layer that fast-tracks the hard integration work upfront and keeps it running. That’s the foundation Keikku needs to perform in the real world.”

Through Redox, health systems can integrate Keikku into existing EHR environments, reducing barriers to adoption and enabling clinicians to access documentation, evidence-based clinical support, and diagnostic insights without leaving the chart.

Organizations can deploy Keikku as a software-only platform or with hardware-enabled capabilities that support ambient clinical audio capture and diagnostic auscultation.

About Lapsi Health

Lapsi Health is a Dutch-American clinical AI company building multi-modal intelligence solutions for modern healthcare. Its flagship platform, Keikku, combines AI-powered clinical documentation, contextual clinical reference, diagnostic support, and purpose-built clinical hardware to help healthcare organizations transform patient interactions into connected clinical workflows. Lapsi Health’s mission is to transform how clinicians capture, structure, and act on patient data, moving from isolated signals to integrated clinical intelligence.

bidadoo Launches “SnapShot by bidadoo” Mobile Selling Solution, Empowering Equipment Owners to List Assets in Minutes

Published

on

By

SEATTLE, July 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — bidadoo, the largest and most trusted used equipment and truck auction provider on the world’s largest auction marketplace – eBay, today announced the launch of SnapShot by bidadoo. This innovative, mobile-first selling solution acts as an efficient “eBay on-ramp,” allowing fleet managers and equipment owners to instantly list machinery for sale directly from their smartphone, maximizing net returns while bypassing traditional transport, 3rd-party inspection fees and scheduling.

Backed by bidadoo’s 23 years of online auction expertise, SnapShot by bidadoo addresses a massive pain point for heavy equipment sellers: the high cost, coordination headache, and down-time associated with transporting heavy assets to physical auction yards. With SnapShot by bidadoo, equipment stays on-site and can list on eBay — the world’s largest auction platform — almost instantly.

“From the start, bidadoo has been a pioneer in the online remarketing space, from our strategic partnership with eBay to the efficiency of our ‘Sell-In-Place’ model,” said Loren Carlson, VP of Sales and Business Development. “SnapShot by bidadoo is the next step in this evolution, acting as an intuitive, high-speed onramp that supercharges our unique platform while paving the way for more exciting selling solutions to come.”

“The Snapshot by bidadoo app is intuitive and easy to navigate, providing detailed information that supports efficient decision making,” said Terry Sluder, District Service Manager at Sunbelt Rentals. “Additionally, the support team is top-notch, responsive, knowledgeable, and always willing to help when needed.”

How It Works: The Five-Step SnapShot Journey

Capture in Minutes: Sellers download the SnapShot by bidadoo mobile app or open a secure inspection link to capture asset details, photos, and video right from the field. No specialized expertise is required.

Optimized by Experts: Once submitted, bidadoo’s professional production team reviews the asset details, guarantees data quality, and builds a professional, market-ready listing.

Launch & List: Listings go live on bidadoo and eBay’s massive online marketplace. The bidadoo team takes over full management of buyer inquiries, bids, offers, payments, and logistic support.

Global Marketing Reach: Using AI-powered, multi-channel marketing campaigns, assets are pushed to millions of global end-user buyers.

Secure Sale & Pay-out: Following a successful transaction, bidadoo collects the payment, coordinates the logistics and buyer pickup, and quickly distributes secure returns to the seller.

Disrupting the Traditional Auction Model

By keeping equipment on-site (Sell-In-Place) and automating the intake process via mobile technology, SnapShot by bidadoo provides equipment owners with higher net returns and total control over their sales schedule. Furthermore, because bidadoo eliminates the standard 10–15% buyer’s premium found at traditional auctions, buyers can put their full purchasing power directly toward their bids, driving higher final sales values for bidadoo sellers.

SnapShot by bidadoo integrates seamlessly with bidadoo’s versatile sales models, including their Weekly No-Reserve Auctions, 24/7 Buy It Now Marketplace, and the soon to be announced Fleet Exchange (FleetX) platform.

Equipment owners and fleet managers interested in trying the platform or scheduling a team training session can visit www.bidadoo.com/snapshot for more information or contact bidadoo at SnapShotGo@bidadoo.com to get started!
