SGI U.S. Large Cap Core ETF | An Actively Managed Semi-Transparent Exchange Traded Fund

As part of an evolution of the ETF space, semi-transparent ETFs disclose holdings quarterly, like a mutual fund. This allows potential for greater alpha3 to be generated by our proprietary portfolio trading strategy. Unlike traditional ETFs, we do not reveal our insights and decisions daily, minimizing the potential for other traders to engage in practices that may potentially harm the Fund and its shareholders. Like all ETFs, SGLC offers daily liquidity, is tax-efficient and has competitive expenses.

STRATEGY

We select stocks we believe exhibit less volatile stock price patterns, strengthening business metrics and a variety of attractive quantitative factors.

RISK MITIGATION

We continually review idiosyncratic risks associated with each stock and may sell if we deem these risks to be elevated due to sustainability, governance issues, negative exclusionary screening, legal risks, or if the risk/ return characteristics decline.

This ETF is different from traditional ETFs. Traditional ETFs tell the public what assets they hold each day. This ETF will not. This may create additional risks for your investment. For example:

  • You may have to pay more money to trade an ETF's shares. This ETF will provide less information to traders, who tend to charge more for trades when they have less information.
  • The price you pay to buy ETF shares on an exchange may not match the value of the ETF's portfolio. The same is true when you sell shares. These price differences may be greater for this ETF compared to other ETFs because this ETF provides less information to traders.
  • These additional risks may be even greater in bad or uncertain market conditions.
  • The SGI Large Cap Core ETF will publish on its website each day a “Proxy Portfolio” designed to help trading in shares of the ETF. While the Proxy Portfolio includes all the names of the ETF's holdings, it is not the ETF's actual portfolio.

The differences between this ETF and other ETFs may also have advantages. By keeping certain information about an ETF portfolio secret, this ETF may face less risk that other traders can predict or copy its investment strategy. This may improve the ETFs' performance. If other traders are able to copy or predict an ETF's investment strategy, however, this may hurt the ETF's performance.

For additional information regarding the unique attributes and risks of this ETF, see the Prospectus .

*Inception 03/31/2023; Gross Expense Ratio 0.85% Performance greater than one year is annualized.
The performance data quoted represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Returns less than one year are not annualized. You cannot invest directly in an index. Shares are bought and sold at market price (closing price), not net asset value (NAV), and are individually redeemed from the Fund. Market performance is determined using the bid/ask midpoint at 4:00pm Eastern time when the NAV is typically calculated. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns.

Historical Premium/Discount

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

1Premium/Discount If the price of the ETF is trading above its NAV, the ETF is said to be trading at a “premium.” Conversely, if the price of the ETF is trading below its NAV, the ETF is said to be trading at a “discount.” In relatively calm markets, ETF prices and NAV generally stay close.
230-Day Median Bid/Ask Spread % A calculation of the Fund's median bid-ask spread, expressed as a percentage rounded to the nearest hundredth, computed by: identifying the Fund's national best bid and national best offer as of the end of each 10 second interval during each trading day of the last 30 calendar days; dividing the difference between each such bid and offer by the midpoint of the national best bid and national best offer; and identifying the median of those values.
3Alpha is typically used to represent the value added or subtracted by active investment management strategies. It shows how an actively managed investment portfolio performed compared with the expected portfolio returns produced simply by benchmark volatility (beta) and market changes. A positive alpha shows that an investment manager has been able to capture more of the upside movement in the benchmark while softening the downswings. A negative alpha means that the manager's strategies have caught more benchmark downside than upside.

Important Risk Information

Carefully consider the Fund's investment objectives, risk factors, charges, and expenses before investing. This and additional information can be found in The SGI U.S. Large Cap Core ETF's prospectus. Read the prospectus carefully before investing.
Diversification does not eliminate the risk of experiencing investment loss.
Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. The Fund is a newly organized, diversified management investment company with no operating history. The goal of the Proxy Portfolio is, during all market conditions, to track closely the daily performance of the Actual Portfolio and minimize intra-day misalignment between the performance of the Proxy Portfolio and the performance of the Actual Portfolio. The Proxy Portfolio is designed to reflect the economic exposures and the risk characteristics of the Actual Portfolio on any given trading day. Securities traded on over-the-counter (“OTC”) markets are not listed and traded on an organized exchange such as the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). Generally, the volume of trading in an unlisted or OTC common stock is less than the volume of trading in an exchange-listed stock. As a result, the market liquidity of some stocks in which the Fund invests may not be as great as that of exchange-listed stocks and, if the Fund were to dispose of such stocks, the Fund may have to offer the shares at a discount from recent prices or sell the shares in small lots over an extended period of time. In addition, penny stocks and pink sheet stocks can be classified as OTC stocks. Securities that can be converted into common stock, such as certain securities and preferred stock, are subject to the usual risks associated with fixed income investments, such as interest rate risk and credit risk.
ESG investing risk is the risk stemming from the ESG factors that some Underlying Funds may apply in selecting securities. Some Underlying Funds may screen out particular companies that do not meet their ESG criteria. This may affect the Underlying Funds' and the Fund's exposure to certain companies or industries and cause the Underlying Funds to forego certain investment opportunities. The Underlying Funds' results may be lower than other funds that do not use ESG ratings and/or screen out certain companies or industries. Certain Underlying Funds may screen out companies that they believe may have higher downside risk and lower ESG ratings, but investors may differ in their views of ESG characteristics. As a result, the Underlying Funds may invest in companies that do not reflect the beliefs and values of any particular investor.
