* Sources of distributions to shareholders may include ordinary dividends, long-term capital gains and return of capital. The final determination of the source of all distributions in 2025 for tax reporting purposes will be made after year end. 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. Based on current estimates a portion of the distribution consists of a return of capital. Pursuant to Section 852 of the Internal Revenue Code, the taxability of this distribution will be reported on Form 1099-DIV for 2025.

Performance returns for the Fund are total returns, which include dividends. Returns are net of management fees and other Fund expenses. The return shown for the Lipper Large-Cap Core Mutual Fund Average is based on open-end mutual funds’ total returns, which include dividends, and are net of fund expenses. Returns for the unmanaged Dow Jones Industrial Average, NASDAQ Composite Index and the S&P 500^®Indices are total returns, including dividends. A description of the Lipper benchmark and the market indices can be found on page 18.

Past performance cannot predict future results. Performance will fluctuate with market conditions. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data shown. Performance information does not reflect the deduction of taxes that shareholders would pay on Fund distributions or the sale of Fund shares. An investment in the Fund involves risk, including loss of principal. Closed-end funds raise money in an initial public offering and shares are listed and traded on an exchange. Open-end mutual funds continuously issue and redeem shares at net asset value. Shares of closed-end funds frequently trade at a discount to net asset value. The price of the Fund’s shares is determined by a number of factors, several of which are beyond the control of the Fund. Therefore, the Fund cannot predict whether its shares will trade at, below or above net asset value.

The views expressed in the President’s letter reflect the views of the President as of April 2025 and may not reflect his views on the date this report is first published or anytime thereafter. These views are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict so actual outcomes and results may differ significantly from the views expressed. These views are subject to change at any time based upon economic, market or other conditions and the Fund disclaims any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied on as investment advice and, because investment decisions for the Fund are based on numerous factors, may not be relied on as an indication of trading intent.

Fellow Shareholders: April 2025

The first quarter of 2025 was a tale of two markets.

Initially, stocks were propelled higher by the same factors behind the steady march of new record highs in 2024: low unemployment and real wage growth, a confident and free spending consumer, good corporate earnings, and a seemingly unstoppable tech sector buoyed by the promise of artificial intelligence. Moreover, investors anticipated that the new administration in Washington would usher in a more business friendly environment. From the market’s opening on January 2 until February 19 the S&P 500^® Index gained 4.64 percent, yet another record high.

February 20 marked a turning point for the equity markets as the threat of tariffs introduced uncertainty into the markets. Concerns about the durability of the factors underpinning the 2024 market (consumer spending, inflation and earnings growth) surfaced. The damage to consumer and business confidence sparked further concern for the economy’s future. From the high in mid-February to the quarter’s close the S&P 500 fell 8.51 percent.

The net result: For the quarter, the S&P 500 returned -4.27 percent. The NASDAQ Composite Index posted a double-digit decline of 10.26 percent. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) fared the best of the three, nearly breaking even with a return of -0.87 percent. On April 2 President Trump launched a new tariff policy and its size and scope caught investors off guard, triggering a multi-day selloff in global equity markets. The NASDAQ Composite fell into bear market territory (a decline of 20 percent from an index’s previous high) and the S&P 500 teetered on the brink; the DJIA slipped into a correction (a decline of 10 percent from an index’s previous high). Markets remained volatile through the opening weeks of the second quarter as the tariffs’ long-term impact on the global economy and geopolitical relationships remained unsettled.

While the first quarter’s returns were negative, the period showed promise for diversified equity investors. For one, market breadth widened out beyond the extreme concentration experienced in 2023 and 2024. One example: the S&P 500^® Equal Weight Index outperformed the S&P 500 (capitalization-weighted) by 3.66 percentage points for the quarter (-0.61 percent versus -4.27 percent, respectively). Another sign of market broadening: Value style stocks outperformed growth stocks; citing the large-cap Russell 1000^® indexes, the growth index declined -9.97 percent while the value index was positive with a return of 2.14 percent. The difference of 12.11 percentage points was the largest outperformance of value over growth since the first quarter of 2001. Among the 11 S&P sectors, consumer discretionary, information technology and communication services—which were the top performing sectors the last two calendar years—were the poorest performers for the quarter. Meanwhile, the energy, health care and consumer staples sectors that lagged the last two years were the best performing sectors in Q1.

Liberty All-Star^® Equity Fund

In this volatile quarter, Liberty All-Star^® Equity Fund outperformed its primary benchmark and all relevant indices on a relative basis, save the DJIA and the S&P 500 Equal Weight Index. The Fund returned -2.13 percent when shares are valued at net asset value (NAV) with dividends reinvested and -3.46 percent when shares are valued at market price with dividends reinvested. (Fund returns are net of expenses.) Both measures of Fund return bested the -4.17 percent return of the Fund’s primary benchmark, the Lipper Large-Cap Core Mutual Fund Average. As noted in the market commentary, the returns of the S&P 500 and NASDAQ Composite (-4.27 percent and -10.26 percent, respectively) trailed Fund returns.

First Quarter Report (Unaudited) | March 31, 2025 1

Liberty All-Star^® Equity Fund President’s Letter

(Unaudited)

As three of the Fund’s five managers employ the value style, Fund returns benefited from the rotation to value stocks during the quarter. The Fund was also helped by strong stock selection in the consumer discretionary sector, an underweight to information technology, and overweights to the better-performing health care and financials sectors.

During the first quarter the discount at which Fund shares traded relative to their underlying NAV widened slightly compared to the preceding quarter but remained in a tight range that extended from a 1.2 percent premium to a -2.5 percent discount.

In accordance with the Fund’s distribution policy, the Fund paid a distribution of $0.17 per share in the first quarter. The Fund’s distribution policy has been in place since 1988 and is a major component of the Fund’s total return. The Fund has paid distributions of $31.17 per share for a total of more than $3.9 billion since 1987 (the Fund’s first full calendar year of operations). We continue to emphasize that shareholders should include these distributions when determining the total return on their investment in the Fund.

Uncertainty cast a shadow over the financial markets during the first quarter of the year. The second quarter has opened with the volatility that accompanies uncertainty. In the Fund’s history, we have lived through the Crash of October 1987, the bursting of the dot.com bubble, the 2007-2009 financial crisis, and the COVID pandemic. Volatility and uncertainty, while unsettling, are not new to this Fund’s management. Discipline, constant vigilance and adherence to fundamental principles have served the Fund well in the past and we remain committed to them as the surest course for our shareholders.

Sincerely,

Mark T. Haley, CFA

DISTRIBUTION POLICY

The current policy is to pay distributions on its shares totaling approximately 10 percent of its net asset value per year, payable in four quarterly installments of 2.5 percent of the Fund’s net asset value at the close of the New York Stock Exchange on the Friday prior to each quarterly declaration date. Sources of distributions to shareholders may include ordinary dividends, long-term capital gains and return of capital. The final determination of the source of all distributions in 2025 for tax reporting purposes will be made after year end. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Fund’s investment experience during the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. If a distribution includes anything other than net investment income, the Fund provides a Section 19(a) notice of the best estimate of its distribution sources at that time. These estimates may not match the final tax characterization (for the full year’s distributions) contained in shareholder 1099-DIV forms after the end of the year. If the Fund’s ordinary dividends and long-term capital gains for any year exceed the amount distributed under the distribution policy, the Fund may, in its discretion, retain and not distribute capital gains and pay income tax thereon to the extent of such excess.

Liberty All-Star^® Equity Fund Notes to Schedule of Investments

March 31, 2025 (Unaudited)

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its schedule of investments. The Fund is considered an investment company under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies in the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies. In regards to Financial Accounting Standards Board Update 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”), the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) monitors the operating results of the Fund as a whole. ALPS Advisors, Inc. (the "Advisor") is the CODM for the Fund. The Fund’s financial information is used by the CODM to assess each segment’s performance. The CODM has determined that the Fund is a single operating segment as defined by ASU 2023-07 that recognizes revenues and incurs expenses. This is supported by the single investment strategy of the Fund, against which the CODM assesses performance.

Security Valuation

Equity securities are valued at the last sale price at the close of the principal exchange on which they trade, except for securities listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”), which are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted securities or listed securities for which there were no sales during the day are valued at the closing bid price on such exchanges or over-the-counter markets.

Cash collateral from securities lending activity is reinvested in the State Street Navigator Securities Lending Government Money Market Portfolio (“State Street Navigator”), a registered investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), which operates as a money market fund in compliance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. Shares of registered investment companies are valued daily at that investment company’s net asset value (“NAV”) per share.

The Fund’s investments are valued at market value or, in the absence of market value with respect to any portfolio securities, at fair value according to procedures adopted by the Fund's Board of Trustees (the "Board"). The Board has designated the Advisor as the Fund’s Valuation Designee. The Valuation Designee is responsible for determining fair value in good faith for all Fund investments, subject to oversight by the Board. When market quotations are not readily available, or in management’s judgment they do not accurately reflect fair value of a security, or an event occurs after the market close but before the Fund is priced that materially affects the value of a security, the security will be valued by the Advisor’s Valuation Committee using fair valuation procedures established by the Valuation Designee. Examples of potentially significant events that could materially impact a Fund’s NAV include, but are not limited to: single issuer events such as corporate actions, reorganizations, mergers, spin-offs, liquidations, acquisitions and buyouts; corporate announcements on earnings or product offerings; regulatory news; and litigation and multiple issuer events such as governmental actions; natural disasters or armed conflicts that affect a country or a region; or significant market fluctuations. Potential significant events are monitored by the Advisor, Sub-Advisers and/or the Valuation Committee through independent reviews of market indicators, general news sources and communications from the Fund’s custodian. As of March 31, 2025, the Fund held no securities that were fair valued.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are recorded on trade date. Cost is determined and gains/(losses) are based upon the specific identification method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes.

Income Recognition

Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Corporate actions and dividend income are recorded on the ex-date.

The Fund estimates components of distributions from real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). Distributions received in excess of income are recorded as a reduction of the cost of the related investments. Once the REIT reports annually the tax character of its distributions, the Fund revises its estimates. If the Fund no longer owns the applicable securities, any distributions received in excess of income are recorded as realized gains.

Lending of Portfolio Securities

The Fund may lend its portfolio securities only to borrowers that are approved by the Fund’s securities lending agent, State Street Bank & Trust Co. (“SSB”). The Fund will limit such lending to not more than 30% of the value of its total assets. The borrower pledges and maintains with the Fund collateral consisting of cash (U.S. Dollar only), securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities, or by irrevocable bank letters of credit issued by a person other than the borrower or an affiliate of the borrower. The initial collateral received by the Fund is required to have a value of no less than 102% of the market value of the loaned securities for securities traded on U.S. exchanges and a value of no less than 105% of the market value for all other securities. The collateral is maintained thereafter, at a market value equal to no less than 100% of the current value of the securities on loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of each business day and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. During the term of the loan, the Fund is entitled to all distributions made on or in respect of the loaned securities. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within the standard time period for settlement of securities transactions.

Any cash collateral received is reinvested in State Street Navigator. Non-cash collateral, in the form of securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities, is not disclosed in the Fund’s Schedule of Investments as it is held by the lending agent on behalf of the Fund, and the Fund does not have the ability to re-hypothecate these securities.

The following is a summary of the Fund’s securities lending positions and related cash and non-cash collateral received as of March 31, 2025:

Market Value of Securities on Loan	Cash Collateral Received	Non-Cash Collateral Received	Total Collateral Received
$46,168,573	$42,975,700	$4,242,103	$47,217,803

The risks of securities lending include the risk that the borrower may not provide additional collateral when required or may not return the securities when due. To mitigate these risks, the Fund benefits from a borrower default indemnity provided by SSB. SSB’s indemnity allows for full replacement of securities lent wherein SSB will purchase the unreturned loaned securities on the open market by applying the proceeds of the collateral, or to the extent such proceeds are insufficient or the collateral is unavailable, SSB will purchase the unreturned loan securities at SSB’s expense. However, the Fund could suffer a loss if the value of the investments purchased with cash collateral falls below the value of the cash collateral received.

Fair Value Measurements

The Fund discloses the classification of its fair value measurements following a three-tier hierarchy based on the inputs used to measure fair value. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability that are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability that are developed based on the best information available.

Valuation techniques used to value the Fund’s investments by major category are as follows:

Equity securities that are valued based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the mean of the most recent quoted bid and ask prices on such day and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Investments in open-end mutual funds are valued at their closing NAV each business day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund’s investments as of the end of the reporting period. When inputs used fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The designated input levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with these investments.

These inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:

Level 1 –	Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments, unrestricted assets or liabilities that a Fund has the ability to access at the measurement date;
Level 2 –	Quoted prices which are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable (either directly or indirectly) for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and
Level 3 –	Significant unobservable prices or inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments as of March 31, 2025:

Investments in Securities at	Valuation Inputs
Value	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Common Stocks*	$	1,895,187,008	$	–	$	–	$	1,895,187,008

* See Schedule of Investments for industry classifications.

The Fund did not have any securities that used significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) in determining fair value during the period.

Indemnification

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims against the Fund. Also, under the Fund’s organizational documents and by contract, the Trustees and Officers of the Fund are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of their duties to the Fund. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss due to these warranties and indemnities to be minimal.
