Investment objective & strategy
As of Aug. 28, 2025 · prospectusObjective. The Pacer Lunt MidCap Multi-Factor Alternator ETF (the Fund) is an exchange traded fund (ETF) that seeks to track the total return performance, before fees and expenses, of the Lunt Capital U.S. MidCap Multi-Factor Rotation Index (the Index).
Strategy. The Fund employs a passive management (or indexing) investment approach designed to track the total return performance, before fees and expenses, of the Index. The Index is based on a proprietary methodology developed by Lunt Capital Management, Inc. (Lunt Capital or the Index Provider). The Index The Index uses an objective, rules-based methodology to provide exposure to mid-capitalization U.S. companies. The Index uses Lunt Capitals proprietary relative strength methodology to rotate between the holdings of the highest and lowest quintile components of four factor-based indices of the S&P MidCap 400 Index (each, a Sub-Index, and together, the Sub-Indices), that seek to identify the components of the S&P MidCap 400 Index that most strongly exhibit a particular factor.

The Index is based on a proprietary methodology developed by Lunt Capital Management, Inc. (Lunt Capital or the Index Provider). The Index The Index uses an objective, rules-based methodology to provide exposure to mid-capitalization U.S. companies. The Index uses Lunt Capitals proprietary relative strength methodology to rotate between the holdings of the highest and lowest quintile components of four factor-based indices of the S&P MidCap 400 Index (each, a Sub-Index, and together, the Sub-Indices), that seek to identify the components of the S&P MidCap 400 Index that most strongly exhibit a particular factor. The four factor groups are Momentum, Quality, Value, and Volatility. The Index will include holdings for two of the following eight Sub-Indices: Momentum Quality Value Volatility Highest Quintile S&P MidCap 400 Momentum Index S&P MidCap 400 Quality Index S&P MidCap 400 Enhanced Value Index S&P MidCap 400 Volatility - Highest Quintile Index Lowest Quintile S&P MidCap 400 Momentum - Lowest Quintile Index S&P MidCap 400 Quality - Lowest Quintile Index S&P MidCap 400 Enhanced Value - Lowest Quintile Index S&P MidCap 400 Low Volatility Index Each Sub-Index is composed of the 80 securities (a quintile) comprising the S&P MidCap 400 Index that most strongly exhibit the characteristic screened for by the Sub-Index. The S&P MidCap 400 Index is a market-weighted index and measures the performance of mid-capitalization stocks in the United States. S&P Opco LLC (a subsidiary of S&P Dow Jones Indices, LLC) compiles, maintains, and calculates the S&P MidCap 400 Index and the Sub-Indices. The Index utilizes Lunt Capitals proprietary relative strength analysis in its attempt to determine which two Sub-Indices are likely to exhibit better price performance than the other Sub-Indices. Pursuant to this methodology, the Index Provider calculates the Risk Adjusted Score for each Sub-Index. On the final trading day of each month, the Index Provider computes the relative strength of each Sub-Index by comparing each Sub-Indexs Risk-Adjusted Score. The Index Provider considers a higher Risk-Adjusted Score to indicate greater relative strength. The Index is composed of the securities comprising the two Sub-Indices demonstrating the greatest relative strength unless such Sub-Indices include both the highest and lowest quintile from the same factor group, in which case only the Sub-Indices with the highest and third-highest Risk-Adjusted Score would be selected. The Index is reconstituted and rebalanced monthly, except when the Index methodology would not result in a change in the Sub-Indices comprising the Index at such time. The Funds Investment Strategy The Fund is classified as diversified under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act). However, the Fund may become non-diversified solely as a result of a change in the relative market capitalization or index weighting of one or more constituents of the Index. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in securities of mid cap companies. The Fund considers a a company to be a mid cap company at the time of purchase if it was included in the S&P MidCap 400 at any time within the prior 12 months. The Funds investment adviser expects that, over time, the correlation between the Funds performance and that of the Index, before fees and expenses, will be 95% or better. The Fund will generally use a replication strategy to achieve its investment objective, meaning it will invest in all of the component securities of the Index.
