Strategy Shares Nasdaq 7HANDL™ Index ETF (HNDL) Declares First Monthly Distribution

HNDL is the First-of-Its-Kind Target Distribution ETF powered by Nasdaq Dorsey Wright

Strategy Shares, a family of exchange traded funds (ETFs) focused on bringing unique strategies to the ETF marketplace, today announced that the Strategy Shares Nasdaq 7HANDL™ Index ETF (HNDL) has declared its first monthly distribution.

Shareholders of record on Wednesday, February 14, will be paid a cash distribution of $0.140292 per share by the ETF on Thursday, February 15th. This distribution rate supports our strategy’s goal of providing a 7% annual distribution. The ex-dividend date of this distribution is Tuesday, February 13, 2018.

Launched January 2018, the Strategy Shares Nasdaq 7HANDL™ Index ETF (HNDL) powered by Nasdaq Dorsey Wright seeks to generate results that correlate generally to the performance of an index within a new indexing category called Target Distribution Indexes, and is designed to support a 7.0% annual distribution rate. All or a portion of the distribution may include a return of capital.

HNDL’s investment strategy seeks results that correlate generally to the performance of the Nasdaq 7HANDL™ Index, which was developed by Bryant Avenue Ventures in partnership with Nasdaq and Dorsey Wright. The Nasdaq 7HANDL™ Index consists of a well-diversified, multi-asset portfolio of low-cost ETFs and employs modest leverage in an amount equal to 23% of the total portfolio. The Index seeks to offer the potential for high monthly distributions while maintaining a stable net asset value over time.

“There has been a proliferation of ETFs in recent years focused on providing niche exposures, but there appears to be a lack of innovation around developing client solutions that can aid an advisor’s practice management,” said, Jerry Szilagyi, CEO of Strategy Shares. “We see an industry ripe for innovation and Strategy Shares is committed to being a part of the evolution of ETFs.”

Investment in a fund of funds is subject to the risks and expenses of the underlying funds. Diversification and asset allocation may not protect against market risk or loss of principal. Certain sectors and markets perform exceptionally well based on current market conditions and the Nasdaq 7HANDL ETF can benefit from that performance. Achieving such exceptional returns involves the risk of volatility and investors should not expect that such results will be repeated. The use of leverage can amplify the effects of market volatility on the fund’s share price and make the fund’s returns more volatile. The use of leverage may cause the fund to liquidate portfolio positions when it would not be advantageous to do so in order to satisfy its obligations. The use of leverage may also cause the fund to have higher expenses than those of funds that do not use such techniques.

Shareholders should not assume that the source of a distribution from the Fund is net profit. Shareholders should note that return of capital will reduce the tax basis of their shares and potentially increase the taxable gain, if any, upon disposition of their shares.

Distribution Policy: In order to allow shareholders of the Fund to realize a predictable, but not assured, level of cash flow, the Fund has adopted a policy (which may be modified at any time by its Board of Trustees) to pay monthly distributions on Fund shares at a target rate that supports the strategy’s annual distribution goal of approximately 7.0% on the Fund’s per-share net asset value on the date of a distribution’s declaration. Shareholders receiving periodic payments from the Fund may be under the impression that they are receiving net profits. However, all or a portion of a distribution may consist of a return of capital. Shareholders should not assume that the source of a distribution from the Fund is net profit.
