Investment objective & strategy

As of Oct. 28, 2025 · prospectus

Objective. The Strive Natural Resources and Security ETF (the Fund) seeks to track the total return performance, before fees and expenses, of an index composed of companies that are engaged in national security and natural resource security.

Strategy. The Funds Investment Strategy The Fund seeks to track the investment results of the Bloomberg Natural Resources & Security Index (the Index), which measures the performance of companies that are engaged in national security and natural resource security as defined by Bloomberg (the Index Provider or Bloomberg). The Index includes large- and mid-capitalization companies. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in companies in the Natural Resources and Security Sectors. The Fund defines Natural Resources and Security Sectors as companies that focus their primary business activities in the Fuel, Aerospace and Defense, Agriculture, Nuclear, or Gold and Other Base and Precious Metals (Gold) sectors (collectively, the Natural Resources … The Funds Investment Strategy The Fund seeks to track the investment results of the Bloomberg Natural Resources & Security Index (the Index), which measures the performance of companies that are engaged in national security and natural resource security as defined by Bloomberg (the Index Provider or Bloomberg). The Index includes large- and mid-capitalization companies. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in companies in the Natural Resources and Security Sectors. The Fund defines Natural Resources and Security Sectors as companies that focus their primary business activities in the Fuel, Aerospace and Defense, Agriculture, Nuclear, or Gold and Other Base and Precious Metals (Gold) sectors (collectively, the Natural Resources and Security Sectors). To be eligible for inclusion in the Index, a security must be a member of the Bloomberg Developed Markets North America Large, Mid & Small Index, which is a free float, market-cap weighted equity index. The Bloomberg North America Large, Mid & Small Index includes the largest companies that comprise 99% of total market capitalization in North America. Thereafter, only U.S. and Canadian listed securities are included. Each company that is included in the Index must focus its primary business activities in the Natural Resources and Security Sectors. Companies within the Natural Resources and Security Sectors must be classified as: (i) Fuel, which includes issuers in the oil and gas sector, (ii) Aerospace, which includes companies in the aerospace and defense sector, (iii) Agriculture, which includes companies in the agriculture chemicals, agriculture producers, agricultural machinery sector, (iv) Nuclear, which includes issuers in the nuclear energy sector, and (v) Gold, which includes companies involved in mining of base and precious metals. The Index utilizes Bloomberg Industry Classification codes to determine sector classifications for the Fuel, Aerospace and Defense, Agriculture, and Gold categories, and the Nuclear BI Theme Basket for the Nuclear category. Bloomberg identifies companies that are within each Natural Resources and Security Sector and those companies are ranked based on issuer free float market capitalization. Each of the five Natural Resources and Security Sectors are equal-weighted (20% each) at the time of rebalance. Within each Natural Resources and Security Sector, the top 10 issuers based on free float market capitalization are selected for inclusion in the Index. Thereafter, each securitys weight is determined by dividing its free float market capitalization by the sum of the free float market capitalizations of all securities in the Index. The Index has approximately 50 constituents. The components of the Index are likely to change over time. The Index is calculated as a total return index in U.S. dollars. The Index is normally rebalanced on a quarterly basis in March, June, September, and December. The Fund is also rebalanced in March, June, September, and December. Strive Asset Management, LLC (the Sub-Adviser) uses a passive or indexing approach to try to achieve the Funds investment objective. Unlike many investment companies, the Fund does not try to beat the index it tracks and does not seek temporary defensive positions when markets decline or appear overvalued. Indexing may eliminate the chance that the Fund will substantially outperform the Index but also may reduce some of the risks of active management, such as poor security selection. Indexing seeks to achieve lower costs and better after-tax performance by aiming to keep portfolio turnover low in comparison to actively managed investment companies. The Fund will generally use a replication strategy to seek to achieve its investment objective, meaning the Fund will invest in all of the component securities of the Index in the same approximate proportions as in the Index, but may, when the Sub-Adviser believes it is in the best interests of the Fund, use a representative sampling strategy, meaning the Fund may invest in a sample of the securities in the Index whose risk, return and other characteristics closely resemble the risk, return and other characteristics of the Index as a whole. The Fund will be considered to be non-diversified, which means that it may invest more of its assets in the securities of a single issuer or a smaller number of issuers than if it were a diversified fund. The Fund will concentrate its investments ( i.e. , hold 25% or more of its total assets) in a particular industry or group of industries to approximately the same extent that the Index is concentrated.
