Experience and Foresight

Our Managed Distribution Policy

Closed-end fund investors often seek a steady stream of income. Recognizing this important need, Calamos closed-end funds adhere to a managed distribution policy in which we aim to provide consistent monthly distributions through the disbursement of th e follow ing:

•Net investment income

•Net realized short-term capital gains

•Net realized long-term capital gains

•And, if necessary, return of capital

We set distributions at levels that we believe are sustainable for the long term. The Fund’s current monthly distribution rate is $0.0 95 0 per share. Our team focuses on delivering an attractive monthly distribution, while maintaining a long-term emphasis on risk management. The level of the Fund’s distribution can be greatly influenced by market conditions, including the interest rate environment, the individual performance of securities held by the funds, our view of retaining leverage, fund tax considerations, and regulatory requirements.

You should not draw any conclusions about the Fund’s investment performance from the amount of its distribution or from the terms of the Fund’s plan. The Fund’s Board of Trustees may amend or terminate the managed distribution policy at any time without prior notice to the Fund’s shareholders. However, at this time there are no reasonably foreseeable circumstances that might cause the termination of the Fund’s managed distribution policy.

For more information about any Calamos closed-end funds, we encourage you to contact your financial advisor or Calamos Investments at 800.582.6959 (Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Central Time). You can also visit us at www.calamos.com.

Note: The Fund adopted a managed distribution policy on Jan uary 1, 201 8.

CALAMOS Convertible Opportunities and Income Fund SEMIANNUAL REPORT 1

Dear Fellow Shareholder:

Welcome to your semiannual report for the six-month period ended April 30, 2021. I n th is report, you will find commentary from the Calamos portfolio management team, as well as a listing of portfolio holdings, financial statements and highlights, and detailed information about the performance and positioning of the Calamos Convertible Opportunities and Income Fund (CHI).

Throughout history, the global economy and financial markets have navigated unprecedented challenges and uncertainty guided by human ingenuity, innovation and forward-looking perspective. We saw this continue during the semiannual period, with many asset classes posting strong gains. Volatility has ramped up, but we believe there is additional upside for experienced, risk-conscious investors. As the global economy continues to make its way through an extraordinary period, individual security selection and active management will be extremely important, both for identifying opportunities and understanding potential risks. Our team is confident that the Fund is well positioned to capitalize on the potential we see across markets.

Market Review

The semiannual period spanned a period of significant change—including a new U.S. presidential administration and shifts in Congress, eagerly anticipated vaccine rollouts, and varying levels of economic reopening around the world. The period also saw the emergence of long-dormant inflation pressures and rising interest rates, including a near doubling of the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield. Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve and other central banks affirmed their commitments to supportive policy and fiscal stimulus continued at record levels.

Stock and convertible markets advanced at a brisk clip during the reporting period, with vaccination progress, job gains and other positive economic data, corporate earnings, fiscal stimulus and accommodative monetary policy giving market participants reasons for optimism. However, as we noted, volatility was also formidable. While many growth-oriented securities continued to post very healthy returns in absolute terms, value-oriented and cyclical sectors came back into favor as investors contemplated the strength of the economy, rising interest rates and inflation pressures. Within the fixed-income markets, high-yield securities outpaced investment-grade issues.

Innovative Multi-Asset Approach Supports the Search for Income

Calamos’ experience with closed-end funds dates to 2002, and we have always recognized that many investors choose closed-end funds to support the search for income. Like all our closed-end funds, CHI is managed with the goal of providing steady (although not assured) monthly distributions. We believe our innovative approach will be an especially important differentiator given the economic and market environments we expect.

As a result of our effective active management and recent strong portfolio performance, CHI raised its monthly distribution during the period by $0.0150 per share, representing an approximate increase of 18.8%. As a result, the Fund now pays out $0.0950 per share, constituting an annualized distribution rate of 7.66%* on market price and 7.44% on NAV as of April 30, 2021. The distribution increase is our effort to enable you, our shareholders, to directly participate in the recent and expected performance of the portfolio.

To fully appreciate both the Fund’s attractive and competitive distribution rate and level, consider the low interest rates and limited yield opportunities in much of the marketplace. For example, as of April 30, 2021, the dividend yield of S&P 500 Index stocks averaged approximately 1.43%. The dividend yield of the ICE BofA All U.S. Convertibles Index was 1.72%. Yields also were low within the U.S. government bond market, with the 10-year U.S. Treasury yielding 1.65%. And the ICE BofA U.S. High Yield Index was yielding 4.12%, all well behind CHI’s distribution rate.

Outlook

We believe the global economic recovery will continue at a strong pace over the near term. Of course, the rate of growth will vary among regions—with the U.S. among the economies that are particularly well-positioned due to accommodative fiscal conditions and extraordinary levels of stimulus. We also see improving fundamentals in several other countries. There will be many investment opportunities through this phase of the cycle, including in the securities of companies positioned to benefit from reopening and recovery as well as innovative businesses at the forefront of established and emerging growth trends.

Capitalizing on this diverse opportunity set requires long-term perspective because short-term volatility is likely to remain elevated. We are prepared for continued market rotation as the economy accelerates before ultimately settling into a new post-pandemic “normal.” We also expect fiscal policy uncertainty about the U.S. tax and regulatory environment will fuel market turbulence with the potential to also influence the longer-term course of the U.S. economic recovery.

*Current Annualized Distribution Rate is the Fund’s most recent distribution, expressed as an annualized percentage of the Fund’s current market price per share. The Fund’s 4/30/21 distribution was $0.0950 per share. Based on our current estimates, we anticipate that approximately $0.0950 is paid from ordinary income or capital gains and that approximately $0.0000 represents a return of capital. Estimates are calculated on a tax basis rather than on a generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis, but should not be used for tax-reporting purposes. Distributions are subject to re-characterization for tax purposes after the end of the fiscal year. This information is not legal or tax advice. Consult a professional regarding your specific legal or tax matters. Under the Fund’s managed distribution policy, distributions paid to common shareholders may include net investment income, net realized short-term and long-term capital gains, and return of capital. When the net investment income and net realized short-term and long-term capital gains are not sufficient, a portion of the distribution will be a return of capital. The distribution rate may vary.

CALAMOS Convertible Opportunities and Income Fund SEMIANNUAL REPORT 3

Our team is closely monitoring inflation data and its drivers. Overall, what we have seen thus far is not surprising, given the combination of healthy consumer balance sheets, fiscal stimulus, pent-up demand and economic reopening. Also, while inflation has risen, it is still relatively low, with year-over-year changes coming off very low base effects. Indeed, today we are not witnessing the double-digit inflation increases that I remember from past decades.

Asset Allocation in a Changing World

From an asset allocation standpoint, we encourage investors to maintain broad diversification—by asset class, investment style, market capitalization and geography. However, asset allocation is not static, and we encourage investors to consult with their investment professionals on an ongoing basis and especially during periods of rapid economic change. Your investment professional can help you determine if you should rebalance your asset allocation in response to market conditions or your unique personal circumstances.

We believe CHI’s multi-asset-class approach will continue to provide advantages for investors who seek income. In addition to corporate bonds, the Fund also invests mostly in convertibles, which blend attributes of stocks and fixed-income securities. As a result, they may be less vulnerable to rising interest rates compared with traditional bonds. Convertibles have also offered the opportunity for upside stock market participation with potentially less exposure to stock market downside. In addition, convertible issuance in 2020 was both robust in volume and varied by business sectors, thereby presenting solid investment opportunities for the portfolio. So far in 2021, the strong issuance of convertibles has continued, and we are optimistic that this favorable dynamic will prevail throughout the year.

Depending on your needs, your investment professional may recommend that you consider additional Calamos closed-end funds to help you address your search for income, capital appreciation or both. On page 5, we provide an overview of our enhanced fixed-income and total-return offerings.

In Closing

We believe that CHI’s dynamic allocation and multi-asset approach is well positioned to generate capital appreciation and attractive income over the entire market cycle with its bouts of volatility and many po tential opportun ities.

I encourage you to visit our website, www.calamos.com, for ongoing updates about the markets and asset allocation strategies for investors seeking income, capital appreciation or both. On behalf of all of us at Calamos Investments, I thank you for your trust. We are honored to serve you and help you achieve your asset allocation goals.

Sincerely,

John P. Calamos, Sr.

Founder, Chairman and Global Chief Investment Officer

INVESTMENT TEAM DISCUSSION

Please discuss the Fund’s strategy and role within an asset allocation.

Calamos Convertible Opportunities and Income Fund (CHI) is an enhanced fixed-i ncome closed-end fund that seeks total return through a combination of capital appreciation and current income. It provides an alternative to funds investing exclusively in investment-grade fixed-income instruments, as it seeks to be less sensitive to interest rates. Like all Calamos closed-end funds, the Fund invests in multiple asset classes and aims to provide a steady stream of distributions paid out monthly.

The Fund invests primarily in a diversified portfolio of convertible securities and high-y ield securities. The allocation to each asset class is dynamic and reflects our view of the economic landscape and the potential of individual securities. By combining these asset classes, we believe that the Fund—over time—is well-positioned to generate capital gains and income. We also believe the broader range of security types provides increased opportunities to manage the risk/reward characteristics of the portfolio over full market cycles, which has been especially important given the economic and financial markets volatility resulting from the pandemic followed by opportunities arising from the recovery.

During the semiannual period ended April 30, 2021, the Fund maintained a high proportional exposure to convertible assets. Given the performance of convertibles over the period, this proved beneficial to the Fund. We believe such exposure continues to position us well to participate in the equity markets in a risk-managed manner in 2021. Moreover, we think that robust and diverse issuance of convertibles will continue to offer us opportunities for our shareholders across multiple sectors.

Accordingly, we seek companies with strong balance sheets, reliable debt servicing and good prospects for sustainable growth. While we invest primarily in securities of U.S. issuers, we favor companies with geographically diversified revenue streams and global-scale business strategies. We believe that better capitalized companies—with strong management teams and reliable cash flow—will be better positioned to not only recover, but to adapt to the new business environment going forward.

How did the Fund perform over the reporting period?

The Fund returned 26.88% on a net asset value (NAV) basis and 41.91% on a market price basis for the semiannual period ending April 30, 2021, versus 8.12% for the IC E Bof A High Yield Master II Index for the same period and 27.33% for the ICE BofA All U.S. Convertibles Index.

At the end of the reporting period, the Fund’s shares traded at a 2.87% discount to net asset value.

SINCE INCEPTION MARKET PRICE AND NAV HISTORY THROUGH 4/30/21

Performance data quoted represents past performance, which is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. The principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that your shares, when sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Returns at NAV reflect the deduction of the Fund’s management fee, debt leverage costs and all other applicable fees and expenses. You can obtain performance data current to the most recent month end by visiting www.calamos.com.

How do NAV and market price return differ?

Closed-end funds trade on exchanges, where the price of shares may be driven by factors other than the value of the underlying securities. The price of a share in the market is called market value. Market price may be influenced by factors unrelated to the performance of the Fund’s holdings, such as general market sentiment or future expectations. During periods of high market volatility, closed-end fund prices may disproportionately underperform relative to their underlying NAVs as shareholders often source them for liquidity purposes. A fund’s NAV return measures the actual return of the individual securities in the portfolio, less fund expenses. It also measures how a manager was able to capitalize on market opportunities. Because we believe closed-end funds are best utilized l ong term within asset allocations, we maintain that the NAV return is the better measure of a fund’s performance. However, when managing the Fund, we strongly consider actions and policies that we believe will optimize its overall price performance and returns based on market value.

Please discuss the Fund’s distributions during the last semiannual period.

Within this Fund, we employ a managed distribution policy with the goal of providing shareholders a consistent distribution stream. In January, the Fund announced a monthly distribution increase of $0.0150 per share, representing a raise of approximately 18.8%. As a result of this increase, the Fund was paying out $0.0950 per share at the end of the period, representing an annualized distribution rate of 7.66% on market price and 7.44% on NAV as of April 30, 2021. The distribution increase is an effort by the A d visor to have shareholders more directly participate in the recent and expected performance of the portfolio.

We believe that both the Fund’s distribution rate and level remained attractive and competitive, as low interest rates limited yield opportunities in much of the marketplace. For example, as of April 30, 2021, the dividend yield of S&P 500 Index stocks averaged approximately 1.43%. Yields were also low within the U.S. government bond market, with the 10-year U.S. Treasury yielding 1.65%. And high-y ield corporate bonds, as measured by the ICE BofA U.S. High Yield Master II Index, were yielding 4.12%.

Investment Team Discussion

What factors influenced performance over the reporting period?

As investors contemplated the economy’s recovery, markets were volatile, and leadership rotated from growth stocks to cyclical and value names. New convertible issuance was very robust during the period and offered numerous investment opportunities, as this market provided access to capital for many new issuers over the course of the economic dislocation resulting from the pandemic. Convertible issuance has been supported by strong equity prices, elevated volatility and low-but-rising interest rates. This fostered strong performance of convertibles during the period. Our expectations are that robust convertible issuance will continue in 2021, providing access to new names within multiple sectors.

Multiple factors supported the recovery that began in Q4 and continued through the first few months of 2021, including high levels of stimulus through the Fed’s monetary policy, record fiscal stimulus from Congress and an acceleration in vaccination deployment. Each of these factors have contributed to strengthening consumer and business leader confidence. At the same time, economic fundamentals improved on both the labor and activity fronts.

For bonds, during the period, new issue markets continued to trade strongly. Consistently high volumes of new debt were met with healthy demand, owing in large measure to the liquidity conditions driven by Fed and fiscal stimulus. Credit spreads, which narrowed in 2020, continued to do so in 2021, which added to positive returns for high-y ield bonds during the period.

That said, the Fund can invest in a range of strategies including convertible securities, high-y ield bonds and U.S. equities. This enables us to participate in a myriad of opportunities on behalf of our shareholders. Given this flexibility, we were able to mitigate risks from the impact of COVID-19 on financial markets by adjusting our exposures across these multiple strategies, in both domestic and global equity and fixed-i ncome markets. Our emphasis on convertibles during the period was favorable to our shareholders, as these securities offered strong returns during the period on both an absolute and relative basis. Looking ahead, this flexibility should help mitigate risk across vulnerable areas of the financial markets and take advantage of opportunities that avail themselves around the globe amid economic recovery.

From an economic sector perspective, our overweight and selection in consumer discretionary (hotels, resorts & cruise lines) contributed to performance. In addition, the Fund was helped by its selection and underweight in financials (diversified banks).

Our selection in information technology (notably application software) was detrimental to performance. In addition, our selection in communication services (an underweight in interactive media services) lagged relative to the index.

How is the Fund positioned?

We continue to hold our highest allocation in the BB credit tier, as we believe this exposure offers investors a better risk/reward dynamic while continuing to provide regular income. From an economic sector perspective, our heaviest exposures include information technology, consumer discretionary and health care. We believe that these sectors should perform well as the market re-engages growth, the global economy begins to reopen, fiscal stimulus abounds, and the U.S. consumer has more opportunities to have access to goods. We see more opportunities arise in health care in the wake of the global pandemic, as there will be a heightened focus on preventing future disasters of this magnitude. We also believe that businesses and individuals will

remain focused on productivity enhancements—many of which accelerated during the pandemic—i n a post-COVID-19 environment, thereby stimulating demand for technology as remote interaction is established as mainstream.

As of April 30, 2021, approximately 71% of our portfolio was invested in convertible securities.

Long term, we believe patient investors will be rewarded for an allocation to convertibles and high yield at current levels, especially given the expectation for continued bouts of volatility due to a market rotation in 2021. We maintain a majority of positions in convertible securities, which we believe can provide income, benefit from a rising equity market, and manage overall portfolio risk. Robust issuance in 2020, which has continued into 2021, is expected to provide access to diverse names and sectors. We believe this representation will enable our shareholders to take advantage of opportunities in the general equity markets, in a risk-managed way that will also generate income to support distributions.

The average credit quality of the portfolio is approximately BB, which is higher than that of the ICE BofA All U.S. Convertibles Index. This is typical for the Fund, as our credit process tends to guide us away from the most speculative corporate securities. That said, we do selectively invest in lower-credit securities when we believe the risk/reward dynamics are favorable for our investors. Approximately 3% of our rated holdings were at CCC and below. A large percentage of our holdings are in non-rated securities. This enables us to employ our proprietary research capabilities to invest in positions that offer value and optimize the Fund’s returns. We have been using the recent market volatility to actively rebalance the portfolio with a combination of both cyclical and secular opportunities, primarily in technology, health care and select consumer sectors. We subsequently redeployed proceeds to purchase convertibles that we expect will provide stronger risk/reward characteristics.

Given our relatively low cost of borrowing, we believe that this environment is conducive to the prudent use of leverage as a means of enhancing total return and supporting the Fund’s distribution rate. This is particularly important as financial markets begin to recover, and the benefits of leverage can be harnessed. Our leverage was approximately 31% at the end of the period.

What are your closing thoughts for Fund shareholders?

It’s o u r belief t hat the flipside of volatility is opportunity, and the volatility that occurred in the markets over the past several months p rovided significant entry points in several names. As the recovery gathers steam, we seek to take advantage of convertibles trading at discounts, focusing on issues poised to capture significant equity upside while also providing downside resilience. As equity prices declined, we were also able to revisit several names that had previously been sold or trimmed because they had become overly equity sensitive.

We are emphasizing investments in companies with consistent cash flow generation, solid balance sheets, and p roven management teams. We believe that the U.S. consumer will once again prove to be the driving force for recovery in both the domestic and global economies. Accordingly, our investment focus will keep that catalyst top of mind.

​

10 CALAMOS Convertible Opportunities and Income Fund SEMIANNUAL REPORT

We believe Fed actions and government fiscal policies will be exceptionally accommodative to economic recovery going forward. We are hopeful that we will begin to see a normalization of social activities later this year that will serve as a positive catalyst to economic revitalization. That said, ongoing risk assessment through an actively managed portfolio is imperative during times of continued market volatility.

Looking to the near-term future, we expect convertibles to continue to benefit as equity prices normalize and the structural valuation of convertibles richen. The convertible market has a relatively heavy concentration in the growth areas of the market that we favor—particularly in the technology and health care sectors. That said, the robust issuance in the convertible market is expanding our set of investment opportunities across, offering greater exposure to other sectors. We expect some volatility to remain in the market as leadership changes and a rotation into more cyclical, value names occurs. We believe that our focus on continually seeking to improve the overall risk/reward of the portfolio will serve investors well during the potentially challenging and volatile days ahead.

As for high yield, the technical backdrop continues to be favorable, in our view. Whereas last year’s supply-demand technical environment was heavily influenced by “fallen angels” (bonds that joined the high-y ield market as a result of downgrades), we expect many issuers to exit the market as “rising stars” (bonds that are upgraded to investment-grade status). The resulting shrinking of the market should further support the already strong technicals.

CALAMOS Convertible Opportunities and Income Fund SEMIANNUAL REPORT 29

Notes to Financial Statements(Unaudited)

Note 1 – Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

Organization. Calamos Convertible Opportunities and Income Fund (the “Fund”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on April 17, 2002 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) as a diversified, closed-end management investment company. The Fund commenced operations on June 26, 2002.

The Fund’s investment strategy is to provide total return through a combination of capital appreciation and current income. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its managed assets in a diversified portfolio of convertibles and non-convertible income securities and under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 35% of its managed assets in convertible securities. The Fund invests in securities with a broad range of maturities. The average term to maturity of the Fund’s securities typically will range from five to ten years. A substantial portion of the Fund’s assets may be invested in below investment grade (high yield, high risk) securities. “Managed assets” means the Fund’s total assets (including any assets attributable to any leverage that may be outstanding) minus total liabilities (other than debt representing financial leverage).

Significant Accounting Policies. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), and the Fund is considered an investment company under U.S. GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies. Under U.S. GAAP, management is required to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements and actual results may differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, through the date that the financial statements were issued, have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:

In March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2017-08, Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities (“ASU 2017-08”). ASU 2017-08 shortens the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. The Fund adopted ASU2017-08 as of January 1, 2020, with no material impact on the Fund’s financial statements.

In October 2020, FASB issued ASU No. 2020-08, Codification Improvements to Subtopic 310-20, Receivables—Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (“ASU 2020-08”). ASU 2020-08 was issued to clarify how to amortize premiums for debt securities where there are bonds with multiple call dates. The amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. Management has evaluated the impact of this guidance within the Fund’s financial statements and has determined the adoption of ASU 2020-08 will have no impact on the Fund’s financial statements.

Fund Valuation. The valuation of the Fund’s investments is in accordance with policies and procedures adopted by and under the ultimate supervision of the board of trustees.

Fund securities that are traded on U.S. securities exchanges, except option securities, are valued at the official closing price, which is the last current reported sales price on its principal exchange at the time each Fund determines its net asset value (“NAV”). Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and quoted on The NASDAQ Stock Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price, as determined by NASDAQ, or lacking a NASDAQ Official Closing Price, the last current reported sale price on NASDAQ at the time the Fund determines its NAV. When a last sale or closing price is not available, equity securities, other than option securities, that are traded on a U.S. securities exchange and other equity securities traded in the over-the-counter market are valued at the mean between the most recent bid and asked quotations on its principal exchange in accordance with guidelines adopted by the board of trustees. Each option security traded on a U.S. securities exchange is valued at the mid-point of the consolidated bid/ask quote for the option security, also in accordance with guidelines adopted by the board of trustees. Each over-the-counter option that is not traded through the Options Clearing Corporation is valued either by an independent pricing agent approved by the board of trustees or based on a quotation provided by the counterparty to such option under the ultimate supervision of the board of trustees.

Fixed-income securities, bank loans, certain convertible preferred securities, and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued by independent pricing services or by dealers or brokers who make markets in such securities. Valuations of such fixed-income securities, bank loans, certain convertible preferred securities, and non-exchange traded derivatives consider yield or price of equivalent securities of comparable quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other market data and do not rely exclusively upon exchange or over-the-counter prices.

​

30 CALAMOS Convertible Opportunities and Income Fund SEMIANNUAL REPORT

Notes to Financial Statements(Unaudited)

Trading on European and Far Eastern exchanges and over-the-counter markets is typically completed at various times before the close of business on each day on which the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Each security trading on these exchanges or in over-the-counter markets may be valued utilizing a systematic fair valuation model provided by an independent pricing service approved by the board of trustees. The valuation of each security that meets certain criteria in relation to the valuation model is systematically adjusted to reflect the impact of movement in the U.S. market after the foreign markets close. Securities that do not meet the criteria, or that are principally traded in other foreign markets, are valued as of the last reported sale price at the time the Fund determines its NAV, or when reliable market prices or quotations are not readily available, at the mean between the most recent bid and asked quotations as of the close of the appropriate exchange or other designated time. Trading of foreign securities may not take place on every NYSE business day. In addition, trading may take place in various foreign markets on Saturdays or on other days when the NYSE is not open and on which the Fund’s NAV is not calculated.

If the pricing committee determines that the valuation of a security in accordance with the methods described above is not reflective of a fair value for such security, the security is valued at a fair value by the pricing committee, under the ultimate supervision of the board of trustees, following the guidelines and/or procedures adopted by the board of trustees.

The Fund also may use fair value pricing, pursuant to guidelines adopted by the board of trustees and under the ultimate supervision of the board of trustees, if trading in the security is halted or if the value of a security it holds is materially affected by events occurring before the Fund’s pricing time but after the close of the primary market or exchange on which the security is listed. Those procedures may utilize valuations furnished by pricing services approved by the board of trustees, which may be based on market transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities that are generally recognized by institutional traders, a computerized matrix system, or appraisals derived from information concerning the securities or similar securities received from recognized dealers in those securities.

When fair value pricing of securities is employed, the prices of securities used by a Fund to calculate its NAV may differ from market quotations or official closing prices. There can be no assurance that the Fund could purchase or sell a por tfolio security at the price used to calculate the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”).

Investment Transactions. Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis as of April 30, 2021. Net realized gains and losses from investment transactions are reported on an identified cost basis. Interest income is recognized using the accrual method and includes accretion of original issue and market discount and amortization of premium. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date, except that certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as soon as the information becomes available after the ex-dividend date.

Foreign Currency Translation. Values of investments and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using a rate quoted by a major bank or dealer in the particular currency market, as reported by a recognized quotation dissemination service.

The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Reported net realized foreign currency gains or losses arise from disposition of foreign currency, the difference in the foreign exchange rates between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the ex-date or accrual date and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes (due to the changes in the exchange rate) in the value of foreign currency and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies held at period end.

Allocation of Expenses Among Funds. Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to the Fund; certain other common expenses of Calamos Advisors Trust, Calamos Investment Trust, Calamos Convertible Opportunities and Income Fund, Calamos Convertible and High Income Fund, Calamos Strategic Total Return Fund, Calamos Global Total Return Fund, Calamos Global Dynamic Income Fund, Calamos Dynamic Convertible and Income Fund, and Calamos Long/Short Equity & Dynamic Income Trust are allocated proportionately among each Fund to which the expenses relate in relation to the net assets of each Fund or on another reasonable basis.

​

CALAMOS Convertible Opportunities and Income Fund SEMIANNUAL REPORT 31

Notes to Financial Statements(Unaudited)

Income Taxes. No provision has been made for U.S. income taxes because the Fund’s policy is to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and distribute to shareholders substantially all of the Fund’s taxable income and net realized gains.

Dividends and distributions paid to common shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains is determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. To the extent these “book/tax” differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for foreign currency transactions, contingent payment debt instruments and methods of amortizing and accreting for fixed-income securities. The financial statements are not adjusted for temporary differences.

Distributions to holders of mandatory redeemable preferred shares (“MRPS”) as described in Note 7 are accrued on a daily basis and are treated as an operating expense due to the fixed term of the obligation. The distributions are shown on the Statement of Operations as Interest expense and amortization of offering costs on Mandatory Redeemable Preferred Shares. For tax purposes, the distributions made to the holders of the MRPS are treated as dividends.

The Fund recognized no liability for uncertain tax positions. A reconciliation is not provided as the beginning and ending amounts of unrecognized benefits are zero, with no interim additions, reductions or settlements. Tax years 2018 - 2020 remain subject to examination by the U.S. and the State of Illinois tax jurisdictions.

Indemnifications. Under the Fund’s organizational documents, the Fund is obligated to indemnify its officers and trustees against certain liabilities incurred by them by reason of having been an officer or trustee of the Fund. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Fund may enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications to other parties. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. Currently, the Fund’s management expects the risk of material loss in connection to a potential claim to be remote.

Note 2 – Investment Adviser and Transactions With Affiliates Or Certain Other Parties

Pursuant to an investment advisory agreement with Calamos Advisors LLC (“Calamos Advisors”), the Fund pays an annual fee, payable monthly, equal to 0.80% based on the average weekly managed assets.

The Fund reimburses Calamos Advisors for a portion of compensation paid to the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer. This compensation is reported as part of the “Trustees’ fees and officer compensation” expense on the Statement of Operations.

The Fund has adopted a deferred compensation plan (the “Plan”). Under the Plan, a trustee who is not an “interested person” (as defined in the 1940 Act) and has elected to participate in the Plan (a “participating trustee”) may defer receipt of all or a portion of their compensation from the Fund. The deferred compensation payable to the participating trustee is credited to the trustee’s deferral account as of the business day such compensation would have been paid to the participating trustee. The value of amounts deferred for a participating trustee is determined by reference to the change in value of Class I shares of one or more funds of Calamos Investment Trust designated by the participant. The value of the account increases with contributions to the account or with increases in the value of the measuring shares, and the value of the account decreases with withdrawals from the account or with declines in the value of the measuring shares. Deferred compensation of $205,253 is included in “Other assets” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities at April 30, 2021. The Fund’s obligation to make payments under the Plan is a general obligation of the Fund and is included in “Payable for deferred compensation to trustees” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities at April 30, 2021.

*Because tax adjustments are calculated annually, the above table does not reflect tax adjustments. For the previous fiscal year’s federal income tax information, please refer to the Notes to Financial Statements section in the Fund’s most recent annual report.

Note 4 – Income Taxes

The Fund intends to make monthly distributions from its income available for distribution, which consists of the Fund’s dividends and interest income after payment of Fund expenses, and net realized gains on stock investments. At least annually, the Fund intends to distribute all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains, if any. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in-capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income. Distributions in any year may include a return of capital component.

The tax character of distributions for the period ended April 30, 2021 will be determined at the end of the Fund’s current fiscal year.

Distributions for the year ended October 31, 2020 were characterized for federal income tax purposes as follows:

| YEAR ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2020
Distributions paid from: |
Ordinary income | $68,044,124​

Note 5 – Derivative Instruments

Foreign Currency Risk. The Fund may engage in portfolio hedging with respect to changes in currency exchange rates by entering into forward foreign currency contracts to purchase or sell currencies. A forward foreign currency contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated forward rate. Risks associated with such contracts include, among other things, movement in the value of the foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar and the ability of the counterparty to perform.

To mitigate the counterparty risk, the Fund may enter into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement (“ISDA Master Agreement”) or similar agreement with its derivative contract counterparties. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between the Fund and a counterparty that governs over-the-counter derivatives and foreign exchange contracts and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. Under an ISDA Master Agreement, the Fund may, under certain circumstances, offset with the counterparty certain derivative financial instrument’s payables and/or receivables with collateral held and/or posted and create one single net payment. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of default (close-out netting), including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the

​

Notes to Financial Statements(Unaudited)

counterparty. Generally, collateral is exchanged between the Fund and the counterparty and the amount of collateral due from the Fund or to a counterparty has to exceed a minimum transfer amount threshold before a transfer has to be made. To the extent amounts due to the Fund from its counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Fund bears the risk of loss from counterparty nonperformance. When a Fund is required to post collateral under the terms of a derivatives transaction and master netting agreement, the Fund’s custodian holds the collateral in a segregated account, subject to the terms of a tri-party agreement among the Fund, the custodian and the counterparty. The master netting agreement and tri-party agreement provide, in relevant part, that the counterparty may have rights to the amounts in the segregated account in the event that the Fund defaults in its obligation with respect to the derivative instrument that is subject to the collateral requirement. When a counterparty is required to post collateral under the terms of a derivatives transaction and master netting agreement, the counterparty delivers such amount to the Fund’s custodian. The master netting agreement provides, in relevant part, that the Fund may have rights to such collateral in the event that the counterparty defaults in its obligation with respect to the derivative instrument that is subject to the collateral requirement. Generally before a default, neither the Fund nor the counterparty may resell, rehypothecate, or repledge any collateral that it receives.

For financial reporting purposes, the Fund does not offset derivative assets and derivative liabilities that are subject to netting arrangements in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The net unrealized gain, if any, represents the credit risk to the Fund on a forward foreign currency contract. The contracts are valued daily at forward foreign exchange rates. The Fund realizes a gain or loss when a position is closed or upon settlement of the contracts. There were no open forward foreign currency contracts at April 30, 2021.

Equity Risk. The Fund may engage in option transactions and in doing so achieves similar objectives to what it would achieve through the sale or purchase of individual securities. A call option, upon payment of a premium, gives the purchaser of the option the right to buy, and the seller of the option the obligation to sell, the underlying security, index or other instrument at the exercise price. A put option gives the purchaser of the option, upon payment of a premium, the right to sell, and the seller the obligation to buy, the underlying security, index, or other instrument at the exercise price.

To seek to offset some of the risk of a potential decline in value of certain long positions, the Fund may also purchase put options on individual securities, broad-based securities indexes or certain exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”). The Fund may also seek to generate income from option premiums by writing (selling) options on a portion of the equity securities (including securities that are convertible into equity securities) in the Fund’s portfolio, on broad-based securities indexes, or certain ETFs.

When a Fund purchases an option, it pays a premium and an amount equal to that premium is recorded as an asset. When a Fund writes an option, it receives a premium and an amount equal to that premium is recorded as a liability. The asset or liability is adjusted daily to reflect the current market value of the option. If an option expires unexercised, the Fund realizes a gain or loss to the extent of the premium received or paid. If an option is exercised, the premium received or paid is recorded as an adjustment to the proceeds from the sale or the cost basis of the purchase. The difference between the premium and the amount received or paid on a closing purchase or sale transaction is also treated as a realized gain or loss. The cost of securities acquired through the exercise of call options is increased by premiums paid. The proceeds from securities sold through the exercise of put options are decreased by the premiums paid. Gain or loss on written options and purchased options is presented separately on the Statement of Operations as net realized gain or loss on written options and net realized gain or loss on purchased options, respectively.

Options written by the Fund do not typically give rise to counterparty credit risk since options written obligate the Fund and not the counterparty to perform. Exchange traded purchased options have minimal counterparty credit risk to the Fund since the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to such instruments, guarantees against a possible default.

As of April 30, 2021, the Fund had outstanding purchased options and/or written options as listed on the Schedule of Investments.

Interest Rate Risk. The Fund may engage in interest rate swaps primarily to hedge the interest rate risk on the Fund’s borrowings (see Note 6 - Notes Payable). An interest rate swap is a contract that involves the exchange of one type of interest rate for another type of interest rate. If interest rates rise, resulting in a diminution in the value of the Fund’s portfolio, the Fund would receive payments under the swap that would offset, in whole or in part, such diminution in value; if interest rates fall, the Fund would likely lose money on the swap transaction. Unrealized gains are reported as an asset, and unrealized losses are reported as a liability on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The change in value of swaps, including accruals of periodic a mounts of interest to be paid or received on swaps, is reported as change in net unrealized appreciation/depreciation on interest rate swaps in the Statement of Operations. A realized gain or loss is recorded in net realized gain (loss) on interest rate swaps in the Statement of Operations upon payment or receipt of a periodic payment or termination of the swap agreements. Swap agreements are stated at fair value. Notional principal amounts are used to express the

extent of involvement in these transactions, but the amounts potentially subject to credit risk are much smaller. In connection with these contracts, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap contracts in the event of default or bankruptcy of the Fund. Please see the disclosure regarding ISDA Master Agreements under Foreign Currency Risk within this note.

Premiums paid to or by a Fund are accrued daily and included in realized gain (loss) when paid on swaps in the accompanying Statement of Operations. The contracts are marked-to-market daily based upon third party vendor valuations and changes in value are recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation). Gains or losses are realized upon early termination of the contract. Risks may exceed amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These risks include changes in the returns of the underlying instruments, failure of the counterparties to perform under the contracts’ terms, counterparty’s creditworthiness, and the possible lack of liquidity with respect to the contracts.

As of April 30, 2021, the Fund had no outstanding interest rate swap agreements.

As of April 30, 2021, the Fund had outstanding derivative contracts which are reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities a s foll ows:

For the period ended April 30, 2021, the volume of derivative activity for the Fund is reflected below:*

| Volume
Purchased options | 17,265
Written options | 2,800

*Activity during the period is measured by opened number of contracts for options purchased or written.

Note 6 – Notes Payable

The Fund has entered into an Amended and Restated Liquidity Agreement (the “SSB Agreement”) with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“SSB”) that allows the Fund to borrow up to a limit of $430.0 million, as well as engage in securities lending and securities repurchase transactions. Borrowings under the SSB Agreement are secured by assets of the Fund that are held with the Fund’s custodian in a separate account (the “pledged collateral”). Interest on the SSB Agreement is charged on the drawn amount at the rate of Overnight LIBOR plus .80%. A commitment fee of .10% is payable on any undrawn balance. For the period ended April 30, 2021, the average borrowings under the Agreement were $351.1 million. For the period ended April 30, 2021, the average interest rate was 0.50%. As of April 30, 2021, the amount of total outstanding borrowings was $399.4 million, which approximates fair value. The interest rate applicable to the borrowings on April 30, 2021 was 0.48%.

Under the terms of the SSB Agreement, all securities lent through SSB must be secured continuously by collateral received in cash. Cash collateral held by SSB on behalf of a Fund may be credited against the amounts borrowed under the SSB Agreement. Under the terms of the SSB Agreement, SSB will return the value of the collateral to the borrower at the termination of the selected securities loan(s). When collateral is returned, SSB may offset the shortfall to the amount lent to the Fund under the SSB Agreement by either lending other securities of the Fund or replacing such amount through direct loans from SSB, without notice to or consent from the Fund and does not change the amount borrowed by the Fund. The cash collateral credits against the amounts borrowed are not reflected separately in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities but as a component of the Notes Payable. Under the terms of the SSB Agreement, the Fund will receive a rebate payment related to the securities lending and/or securities repurchase transactions which is reflected in interest expense in the Statement of Operations. The Fund has the right to call a loan and obtain the securities loaned at any time. As of April 30, 2021, approximately $356.2 million of securities were on loan ($339.3 million of fixed-income securities and $16.9 million of equity securities) under the SSB Agreement which are reflected in the Investment in securities, at value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The borrowings are categorized as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

Note 7 – Mandatory Redeemable Preferred Shares

On September 6, 2017, the Fund issued 4,000,000 mandatory redeemable preferred shares (“MRPS”) with an aggregate liquidation preference of $100.0 million. Offering costs incurred by the Fund in connection with the MRPS issuance are aggregated with the outstanding liability and are being amortized to Interest expense and amortization of offering costs on Mandatory Redeemable Preferred Shares over the respective life of each series of MRPS and shown in the Statement of Operations.

The MRPS are divided into three series with different mandatory redemption dates and dividend rates. The table below summarizes the key terms of each series of the MRPS at April 30, 2021.

Series | Term Redemption Date | Dividend Rate | Shares (000’s) | Liquidation Preference Per Share |  | Aggregate Liquidation Preference
Series A | 9/06/22 | 3.70% | 1,330 | $25 | ​ | $33,250,000​
Series B | 9/06/24 | 4.00% | 1,330 | $25 | ​ | $33,250,000​
Series C | 9/06/27 | 4.24% | 1,340 | $25 | ​ | $33,500,000​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | Total | ​ | $100,000,000​

The MRPS are not listed on any exchange or automated quotation system. The MRPS are considered debt of the issuer; therefore, the liquidation preference, which approximates fair value of the MRPS, is recorded as a liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities net of deferred offering costs. The MRPS are categorized as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

Previously, the MRPS had been assigned a rating of “AA” by Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”). As of December 17, 2020, Kroll Bond Rating Agency LLC (“Kroll”) replaced Fitch as the rating agency for the MRPS. The MRPS have been assigned a rating of `AA-’ by Kroll. If the ratings of the MRPS are downgraded, the Fund’s dividend expense may increase, as described below.

Holders of MRPS are entitled to receive monthly cumulative cash dividends payable on the first business day of each month. The MRPS currently are rated “AA-” by Kroll. If on the first day of a monthly dividend period the MRPS of any class are rated lower than “A” by Fitch (or lower than the equivalent of such rating by any other rating agency providing a rating pursuant to the request of the Fund, such as Kroll), the dividend rate for such period shall be increased by 0.5%, 2.0% or 4.0% according to an agreed upon schedule. The MRPS’ dividend rate is also subject to increase during periods when the Fund has not made timely payments to MRPS holders and/or the MRPS do not have a current credit rating, subject to various terms and conditions. Dividends accrued and paid to the shareholders of MRPS are included in “Interest expense and amortization of offering costs on Mandatory Redeemable Preferred Shares” within the Statement of Operations.

The MRPS rank junior to the Fund’s borrowings under the SSB Agreement and senior to the Fund’s outstanding common stock. The Fund may, at its option, subject to various terms and conditions, redeem the MRPS, in whole or in part, at the liquidation preference amount plus all accumulated but unpaid dividends, plus a make whole premium equal to the discounted value of the remaining scheduled payments. Each class of MRPS is subject to mandatory redemption on the term redemption date specified in the table above. Periodically, the Fund is subject to an overcollateralization test based on applicable rating agency criteria (the “OC Test”) and an asset coverage test with respect to its outstanding senior securiti es (the “AC Test”). The Fund may be required to redeem MRPS before their term redemption date if it does not comply with one or both tests. So long as any MRPS are outstanding, the Fund may not declare, pay or set aside for payment cash dividends or other distributions on shares of its common stock unless (1) the Fund has satisfied the OC Test on at least one testing date in the preceding 65 days, (2) immediately after such transaction, the Fund would comply with the AC Test, (3) full cumulative dividends on the MRPS due on or prior to the date of such transaction have been declared and paid and (4) the Fund has redeemed all MRPS required to have been redeemed on such date or has deposited funds sufficient for such redemption, subject to certain grace periods and exceptions.

Except as otherwise required pursuant to the Fund’s governing documents or applicable law, the holders of the MRPS have one vote per share and vote together with the holders of common stock of the Fund as a single class except on matters affecting only the holders of MRPS or the holders of common stock. Pursuant to the 1940 Act, holders of the MRPS have the right to elect at least two trustees of the Fund, voting separately as a class. Except during any time when the Fund has failed to make a dividend or redemption payment in respect of MRPS outstanding, the holders of MRPS have agreed to vote in accordance with the recommendation of the board of trustees on any matter submitted to them for their vote or to the vote of shareholders of the Fund generally.

The Fund also may offer and sell common shares from time to time at an offering price equal to or in excess of the net asset value per share of the Fund’s common shares at the time such common shares are initially sold.

Note 9 – Fair Value Measurements

Various inputs are used to determine the value of the Fund’s investments. These inputs are categorized into three broad levels a s follo ws:

•Level 1 – Prices are determined using inputs from unadjusted quoted prices from active markets (including securities actively traded on a securities exchange) for identical assets.

•Level 2 – Prices are determined using significant observable market inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices, including quoted prices of similar securities, fair value adjustments to quoted foreign securities, interest rates, credit risk, prepayment speeds, and other relevant data.

•Level 3 – Prices reflect unobservable market inputs (including the Fund’s own judgments about assumptions market participants would use in determining fair value) when observable inputs are unavailable.

Debt securities are valued based upon evaluated prices received from an independent pricing service or from a dealer or broker who makes markets in such securities. Pricing services utilize various observable market data and as such, debt securities are generally categorized as Level 2. The levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity of the Fund’s investments.

(d)Annualized.

(e)Calculated by subtracting the Fund’s total liabilities (not including Notes payable and Mandatory Redeemable Preferred Shares) from the Fund’s total assets and dividing this by the amount of notes payable outstanding, and by multiplying the result by 1,000.

(f)Calculated by subtracting the Fund’s total liabilities (not including Notes payable and Mandatory Redeemable Preferred Shares) from the Fund’s total assets and dividing this by the amount of Mandatory Redeemable Preferred Shares outstanding, and by multiplying the result by 25.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of
Calamos Convertible Opportunities and Income Fund

Results of Review of Interim Financial Information

We have reviewed the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of Calamos Convertible Opportunities and Income Fund (the “Fund”) as of April 30, 2021, the related statements of operations, changes in net assets, cash flows, and the financial highlights for the six month period then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “interim financial information”). Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim financial information for it to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the statement of changes in net assets of the Fund for the year ended October 31, 2020, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended; and in our report dated December 18, 2020, we expressed an unqualified opinion on such statement of changes in net assets and financial highlights.

Basis for Review Results

This interim financial information is the responsibility of the Fund’s management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards of the PCAOB. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements and financial highlights taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

About Closed-End Funds

CALAMOS Convertible Opportunities and Income Fund SEMIANNUAL REPORT 39

What is a Closed-End Fund?

A closed-end fund is a publicly traded investment company that raises its initial investment capital through the issuance of a fixed number of shares to investors in a public offering. Shares of a closed-end fund are listed on a stock exchange or traded in the over-the-counter market. Like all investment companies, a closed-end fund is professionally managed and offers investors a unique investment solution based on its investment objective approved by the fund’s Board of Directors.

Potential Advantages of Closed-End Fund Investing

•Defined Asset Pool Allows Efficient Portfolio Management—Although closed-end fund shares trade actively on a securities exchange, this doesn’t affect the closed-end fund manager because there are no new investors buying into or selling out of the fund’s portfolio.

•More Flexibility in the Timing and Price of Trades—Investors can purchase and sell shares of closed-end funds throughout the trading day, just like the shares of other publicly traded securities.

•Lower Expense Ratios—The expense ratios of closed-end funds are oftentimes less than those of mutual funds. Over time, a lower expense ratio could enhance investment performance.

•Closed-End Structure Makes Sense for Less-Liquid Asset Classes—A closed-end structure makes sense for investors considering less-liquid asset classes, such as high-yield bonds or micro-cap stocks.

•Ability to Put Leverage to Work—Closed-end funds may issue senior securities (such as preferred shares or debentures) or borrow money to “leverage” their investment positions.

•No Minimum Investment Requirements

OPEN-END MUTUAL FUNDS VERSUS CLOSED-END FUNDS

OPEN-END FUND | ​ | CLOSED-END FUND
Issues new shares on an ongoing basis | ​ | Generally issues a fixed number of shares
Issues common equity shares | ​ | Can issue common equity shares and senior securities such as preferred shares and bonds
Sold at NAV plus any sales charge | ​ | Price determined by the marketplace
Sold through the fund’s distributor | ​ | Traded in the secondary market
Fund redeems shares at NAV calculated at the close of business day | ​ | Fund does not redeem shares

You can purchase or sell common shares of closed-end funds daily. Like any other stock, market price will fluctuate with the market. Upon sale, your shares may have a market price that is above or below net asset value and may be worth more or less than your original investment. Shares of closed-end funds frequently trade at a discount, which is a market price that is below their net asset value.

Leverage creates risks which may adversely affect return, including the likelihood of greater volatility of net asset value and market price of common shares and fluctuations in the variable rates of the leverage financing.

Each open-end or closed-end fund should be evaluated individually. Before investing carefully consider the fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses.

Managed Distribution Policy

40 CALAMOS Convertible Opportunities and Income Fund SEMIANNUAL REPORT

Using a Managed Distribution Policy to Promote Dependable Income and Total Return

The goal of the managed distribution policy is to provide investors a predictable, though not assured, level of cash flow, which can either serve as a stable income stream or, through reinvestment, may contribute significantly to long-term total return.

We understand the importance that investors place on the stability of dividends and their ability to contribute to long-term total return, which is why we have instituted a managed distribution policy for the Fund. Under the policy, monthly distributions paid may include net investment income, net realized short-term capital gains, net realized long-term capital gains and, if necessary, return of capital. There is no guarantee that the Fund will realize capital gains in any given year. Distributions are subject to re-characterization for tax purposes after the end of the fiscal year. All shareholders with taxable accounts will receive written notification regarding the components and tax treatment for distributions via Form 1099-DIV.

Distributions from the Fund are generally subject to Federal income taxes.

Automatic Dividend Reinvestment Plan

Maximizing Investment with an Automatic Dividend Reinvestment Plan

The Automatic Dividend Reinvestment Plan offers a simple, cost-efficient and convenient way to reinvest your dividends and capital gains distributions in additional shares of the Fund, allowing you to increase your investment in the Fund.

Potential Benefits

•Compounded Growth: By automatically reinvesting with the Plan, you gain the potential to allow your dividends and capital gains to compound over time.

•Potential for Lower Commission Costs: Additional shares are purchased in large blocks, with brokerage commissions shared among all plan participants. There is no cost to enroll in the Plan.

•Convenience: After enrollment, the Plan is automatic and includes detailed statements for participants. Participants can terminate their enrollment at any time.

Pursuant to the Plan, unless a shareholder is ineligible or elects otherwise, all dividend and capital gains on common shares distributions are automatically reinvested by Computershare, as agent for shareholders in administering the Plan (“Plan Agent”), in additional common shares of the Fund. Shareholders who elect not to participate in the Plan will receive all dividends and distributions payable in cash paid by check mailed directly to the shareholder of record (or, if the shares are held in street or other nominee name, then to such nominee) by Plan Agent, as dividend paying agent. Shareholders may elect not to participate in the Plan and to receive all dividends and distributions in cash by sending written instructions to the Plan Agent, as dividend paying agent, at: Dividend Reinvestment Department, P.O. BOX 505000, Louisville, KY 40233. Participation in the Plan is completely voluntary and may be terminated or resumed at any time without penalty by giving notice in writing to the Plan Agent; such termination will be effective with respect to a particular dividend or distribution if notice is received prior to the record date for the applicable distribution.

The shares are acquired by the Plan Agent for the participant’s account either (i) through receipt of additional common shares from the Fund (“newly issued shares”) or (ii) by purchase of outstanding common shares on the open market (“open-market purchases”) on the NASDAQ or elsewhere. If, on the payment date, the net asset value per share of the common shares is equal to or less than the market price per common share plus estimated brokerage commissions (a “market premium”), the Plan Agent will receive newly issued shares from the Fund for each participant’s account. The number of newly issued common shares to be credited to the participant’s account will be determined by dividing the dollar amount of the dividend or distribution by the greater of (i) the net asset value per common share on the payment date, or (ii) 95% of the market price per common share on the payment date.

​

Automatic Dividend Reinvestment Plan

CALAMOS Convertible Opportunities and Income Fund SEMIANNUAL REPORT 41

If, on the payment date, the net asset value per common share exceeds the market price plus estimated brokerage commissions (a “market discount”), the Plan Agent has a limited period of time to invest the dividend or distribution amount in shares acquired in open-market purchases. If, before the Plan Agent has completed its open-market purchases, the market price plus estimated brokerage commissions exceeds the net asset value of the common shares as of the payment date, the purchase price paid by Plan Agent may exceed the net asset value of the common shares, resulting in the acquisition of fewer common shares than if such dividend or distribution had been paid in common shares issued by the Fund. The weighted average price (including brokerage commissions) of all common shares purchased by the Plan Agent as Plan Agent will be the price per common share allocable to each participant. If the Plan Agent is unable to invest the full dividend amount in open-market purchases during the purchase period or if the market discount shifts to a market premium during the purchase period, the Plan Agent will cease making open-market purchases and will invest the uninvested portion of the dividend or distribution amount in newly issued shares at the net asset value per common share at the close of business on the last purchase date.

The automatic reinvestment of dividends and distributions will not relieve participants of any federal, state or local income tax that may be payable (or required to be withheld) on such dividends even though no cash is received by participants.

There are no brokerage charges with respect to shares issued directly by the Fund as a result of dividends or distributions payable either in shares or in cash. However, each participant will pay a pro rata share of brokerage commissions incurred with respect to the Plan Agent’s open-market purchases in connection with the reinvestment of dividends or distributions. If a participant elects to have the Plan Agent sell part or all of his or her common shares and remit the proceeds, such participant will be charged his or her pro rata share of brokerage commissions on the shares sold, plus a $15 transaction fee. There is no direct service charge to participants in the Plan; however, the Fund reserves the right to amend the Plan to include a service charge payable by the participants.

A participant may request the sale of all of the common shares held by the Plan Agent in his or her Plan account in order to terminate participation in the Plan. If such participant elects in advance of such termination to have the Plan Agent sell part or all of his shares, the Plan Agent is authorized to deduct from the proceeds a $15.00 fee plus the brokerage commissions incurred for the transaction. A participant may re-enroll in the Plan in limited circumstances.

The terms and conditions of the Plan may be amended by the Plan Agent or the Fund at any time upon notice as required by the Plan.

This discussion of the Plan is only summary, and is qualified in its entirety by the Terms and Conditions of the Dividend Reinvestment Plan filed as part of the Fund’s registration statement.

For additional information about the Plan, please contact the Plan Agent, Computershare, at 866.226.8016. If you wish to participate in the Plan and your shares are held in your own name, simply call the Plan Agent. If your shares are not held in your name, please contact your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee to request that they participate in the Plan on your behalf. If your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee is unable to participate on your behalf, you may request that your shares be re-registered in your own name.

We’re pleased to provide our shareholders with the additional benefit of the Fund’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan and hope that it may serve your financial plan.
