Wells Fargo Utilities and High Income Fund (ERH) Managed Distribution Plan Semi-Annual Report February 28, 2021 Wells Fargo Utilities and High Income Fund (ERH) Managed Distribution Plan Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Order”), the Fund is authorized to distribute long-term capital gains to shareholders more frequently than once per year. Pursuant to the Order, the Fund’s Board of Trustees approved a Managed Distribution Plan (“MDP”) for the Fund pursuant to which the Fund makes monthly cash distributions to common shareholders, stated in terms of a fixed amount per common share. The Fund’s Board has adopted a managed distribution plan for the Fund at an annual minimum fixed rate of 7% based on the Fund’s average monthly NAV per share over the prior 12 months. The Fund makes distributions monthly. You should not draw any conclusions about the Fund’s investment performance from the amount of these distributions or from the terms of the MDP. The MDP will be subject to regular periodic review by the Board and the Board may amend or terminate the MDP at any time without prior notice to Fund shareholders. However, at this time there are no reasonably foreseeable circumstances that might cause the termination of the MDP. The Fund may distribute more than its income and net realized capital gains and, therefore, a portion of your distribution may be a return of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the money that you invested in the Fund is paid back to you. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Fund’s investment performance and should not be confused with ‘yield’ or ‘income’. With each distribution, the Fund will issue a notice to shareholders and a press release containing information about the amount and sources of the distribution and other related information. The amounts and sources of distributions reported in the notice and press release are only estimates and are not provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Fund’s investment experience during its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. The Fund will send you a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that will tell you how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.

INVESTMENT PRODUCTS: NOT FDIC INSURED ▪ NO BANK GUARANTEE ▪ MAY LOSE VALUE Wells Fargo Utilities and High Income Fund | 1 Letter to shareholders (unaudited) Dear Shareholder: We are pleased to offer you this semi-annual report for the Wells Fargo Utilities and High Income Fund for the six-month period that ended February 28, 2021. Global stocks showed robust returns, as the global economy began emerging from the haze of COVID-19. Tailwinds were provided by global stimulus programs, a rapid vaccination rollout, and recovering consumer and corporate sentiment. Bonds also had positive returns, led by high- yield bonds. For the six-month period, U.S. stocks, based on the S&P 500 Index,1 gained 9.74%. Andrew Owen International stocks, as measured by the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index (Net),2 returned 16.65%, President while the MSCI EM Index (Net),3 had even stronger performance, with a 22.32% gain. Among Wells Fargo Funds bond indexes, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index,4 returned (1.55)%, the Bloomberg Barclays Global Aggregate ex-USD Index (unhedged),5 gained 1.41%, and the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index,6 returned 0.86% while the ICE BofA U.S. High Yield Index,7 gained 6.14%. Hope drove the stock markets to new highs. Stocks grew more volatile in September on mixed economic data. U.S. economic activity continued to grow. However, U.S. unemployment remained elevated at 7.9% in September. With U.S. Congress delaying further fiscal relief and uncertainties surrounding a possible vaccine, doubts crept back into the financial markets. In the U.K., a lack of progress in Brexit talks weighed on markets. China’s economy picked up steam, fueled by increased global demand. In October, capital markets stepped back from their six-month rally. Market volatility rose in advance of the U.S. election and amid a global increase in COVID-19 infections. Europe introduced tighter restrictions affecting economic activity. U.S. markets looked favorably at the prospect of Democratic control of the federal purse strings, which could lead to additional fiscal stimulus and a boost to economic activity. Meanwhile, China reported 4.9% third-quarter gross domestic product growth. 1 The S&P 500 Index consists of 500 stocks chosen for market size, liquidity, and industry group representation.

The Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders and the proxy statement that follow describe the business to be conducted at the meeting. As we look forward to our 2019 annual meeting of shareholders, it is worth reflecting on the year just completed. In 2018, we achieved the firm’s second-highest adjusted net revenues and adjusted earnings per share on record, each a non-GAAP financial measure, with adjusted net revenues of $780.8 million and adjusted earnings per share of $6.13. These financial results reflect the strong foundation that we have built over the past few years by growing our leadership in our core sectors, shifting to more capital-light, variable cost business models, and maintaining product diversity that we believe provides a counterbalance in any market environment. We are furnishing our proxy materials to you over the Internet, which will reduce our costs and the environmental impact of our annual meeting. Accordingly, we mailed a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials to you, which contains instructions on how to access our proxy statement and annual report and vote online. The Notice of Internet Availability also contains instructions on how to request a printed set of proxy materials.

These forward-looking statements may relate to such matters as anticipated financial performance, future revenues or earnings, business prospects, new products or services, anticipated market performance and similar matters. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements.

Instead, they are based only on the company’s current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of the company’s business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions.

Forward-looking statements include statements about the Company's expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, intentions, assumptions and other statements that are not historical facts. Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and are based on potentially inaccurate assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expected or implied by the forward-looking statements.

The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and impact on our clients, employees, vendors and the markets in which we operate our businesses, all of which are uncertain and cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The Company's actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements for many reasons, including the factors described in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
