Investment objective & strategy
As of Nov. 26, 2025 · prospectusObjective. The ARK Genomic Revolution ETFs (Fund) investment objective is long -term growth of capital.
Strategy. The Fund is an actively -managed exchange -traded fund (ETF) that will invest under normal circumstances primarily (at least 80% of its assets) in domestic and foreign equity securities of companies across multiple sectors, including healthcare, information technology, materials, energy and consumer discretionary, that are relevant to the Funds investment theme of the genomics* revolution (Genomics Revolution Companies), which is described below: Genomic Revolution Companies. Companies that the Adviser believes are substantially focused on and are expected to substantially benefit from extending and enhancing the quality of human and other life by incorporating technological and scientific developments, improvements and advancements in genomics into their business, such as by offering new products or services that rely on genomic sequencing,** analysis, synthesis … The Fund is an actively -managed exchange -traded fund (ETF) that will invest under normal circumstances primarily (at least 80% of its assets) in domestic and foreign equity securities of companies across multiple sectors, including healthcare, information technology, materials, energy and consumer discretionary, that are relevant to the Funds investment theme of the genomics* revolution (Genomics Revolution Companies), which is described below: Genomic Revolution Companies. Companies that the Adviser believes are substantially focused on and are expected to substantially benefit from extending and enhancing the quality of human and other life by incorporating technological and scientific developments, improvements and advancements in genomics into their business, such as by offering new products or services that rely on genomic sequencing,** analysis, synthesis or instrumentation. These companies may include ones across multiple sectors, such as healthcare, information technology, materials, energy and consumer discretionary. These companies may also develop, produce, manufacture or significantly rely on or enable bionic devices, bio -inspired computing, bioinformatics,*** molecular medicine and agricultural biotechnology. In selecting companies that the Adviser believes are relevant to a particular investment theme, the Adviser seeks to identify, using its own internal research and analysis, companies capitalizing on disruptive innovation or that are enabling the further development of a theme in the markets in which they operate. The Advisers internal research and analysis leverages insights from diverse sources, including external research, to develop and refine its investment themes and identify and take advantage of trends that have ramifications for individual companies or entire industries. The Advisers process for identifying Genomic Revolution Companies uses both top down (thematic research sizing the potential total available market, and surfacing the prime beneficiaries) and bottom up (valuation, fundamental and quantitative measures) approaches. In both the Advisers top down and bottom up approaches, the Adviser evaluates environmental, social, and governance (ESG) considerations. In its top down approach, the Adviser uses the framework of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals to integrate ESG considerations into its research and investment process. The Adviser, however, does not use ESG considerations to limit, restrict or otherwise exclude companies or sectors from the Funds investment universe. In its bottom up approach, the Adviser makes its investment decisions primarily based on its analysis of the potential of individual companies, while integrating ESG considerations into that process. The Advisers highest -conviction investment ideas are those that it believes present the best risk -reward opportunities. The Fund may invest in certain companies that the Adviser believes are well -positioned to capitalize on and expected to devote substantial efforts to business lines enabled by disruptive genomic innovation, even if such companies do not currently derive a substantial portion of their revenues from genomics related activities. Under normal circumstances, substantially all of the Funds assets will be invested in equity securities, including common stocks, partnership interests, business trust shares and other equity investments or ownership interests in business enterprises. The Funds investments will include micro-, small-, medium- and large -capitalization companies. The Funds investments in foreign equity securities will be in both developed and emerging markets. * The Adviser defines genomics as the study of genes and their functions, and related techniques (e.g., genomic sequencing). ** The Adviser uses the term genomic sequencing to refer to techniques that allow researchers to read and decipher the genetic information found in the DNA (i.e., the exact sequence of bases A, C, G and T in a DNA molecule), including the DNA of bacteria, plants, animals and human beings. *** The Adviser defines bioinformatics as the science of collecting and analyzing complex biological data such as genetic codes. The Fund will be concentrated (i.e., more than 25% of the value of the Funds assets) in securities of issuers having their principal business activities in any industry or group of industries in the health care sector, including issuers having their principal business activities in the biotechnology industry. Other industries in the health care sector include medical laboratories and research and drug manufacturers. The Fund may invest in foreign securities listed on foreign exchanges as well as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs). The Fund is classified as a non -diversified investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), which means that it may invest a high percentage of its assets in a limited number of issuers.
