- ClearBridge Energy Midstream Opportunity Fund Inc. (NYSE: EMO) is a closed-end management investment company that seeks to provide long-term investors a high level of total return with an emphasis on cash distributions by investing primarily in energy midstream entities. Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 80% of its managed assets in such entities, including those structured as master limited partnerships (MLPs) and corporations engaged in midstream services such as the gathering, transporting, processing, fractionation, storing, refining, and distribution of oil, natural gas liquids, and natural gas; it targets MLPs and similar entities with long-lived assets, predictable cash flows, and relatively low direct commodity exposure. The Fund operates in the asset management industry within the financials sector, focusing on U.S. public equity markets and energy infrastructure, with its portfolio managed by Franklin Templeton Fund Adviser, LLC as investment manager and ClearBridge Investments, LLC as subadvisor; portfolio managers include Peter Vanderlee and Patrick McElroy.

(NYSE: CTR) effective September 9, 2024, converting CEM and CTR stockholders into EMO stockholders based on net asset values as of September 6, 2024, thereby expanding its asset base and scale.
