Investment objective & strategy

As of Feb. 27, 2026 · prospectus

Objective. The Pacer Cash COWZ 100-Nasdaq 100 Rotator ETF (the Fund) is an exchange traded fund (ETF) that seeks to track the total return performance, before fees and expenses, of the Pacer COWZ NDX Rotator 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 and maintained by Index Design Group (the Index Provider or IDG), an affiliate of Pacer Advisors, Inc., the Funds investment adviser (the Adviser). Pacer COWZ NDX Rotator Index The Index uses an objective, rules-based methodology to provide exposure to large-capitalization companies. The Index uses IDGs proprietary methodology to rotate between the holdings of one of two sub-indices: the Pacer US Cash Cows 100 Index and the Nasdaq-100 Index (each, a Sub-Index, and together, the Sub-Indices).

Pacer COWZ NDX Rotator Index The Index uses an objective, rules-based methodology to provide exposure to large-capitalization companies. The Index uses IDGs proprietary methodology to rotate between the holdings of one of two sub-indices: the Pacer US Cash Cows 100 Index and the Nasdaq-100 Index (each, a Sub-Index, and together, the Sub-Indices). The Index methodology seeks to identify the Sub-Index that has the strongest momentum based on the equal-weighted average monthly returns of the last one, three, six, nine, and 12 months. The Fund will invest in the Sub-Index identified by the model as having the strongest momentum until such time as the Index methodology indicates the other Sub-Index has stronger momentum, indicating a rotation to the other Sub-Index. The Index is reconstituted and rebalanced on a monthly basis, as of the close of business on the third-to-last business day of the month. As of October 31, 2025, the Index was composed of 100 constituents. The Pacer US Cash Cows 100 Index The Pacer US Cash Cows Index uses an objective, rules-based methodology to provide exposure to large and mid-capitalization U.S. companies with high free cash flow yields. Companies with high free cash flow yields are commonly referred to as cash cows. The initial Sub-Index universe is derived from the component companies of the Russell 1000 Index. The Russell 1000 Index measures the performance of the approximately 1,000 largest companies in the Russell 3000 Index, which is composed of the approximately 3,000 largest publicly-traded companies in the United States, as determined by the FTSE Russell Group. Component companies of the initial Sub-Index universe are screened based on their free-float market capitalization (i.e., market capitalization based on the number of shares available to the public). The equity securities of the 400 companies with the highest free-float market capitalization are further screened for inclusion in the Sub-Index universe. Companies with negative average projected free cash flows or earnings are removed from the Sub-Index universe. Additionally, financial companies, except for real estate investment trusts (REITs), are excluded from the Sub-Index universe. The remaining companies are ranked by their free cash flow yield for the trailing twelve month period. The equity securities of the 100 companies with the highest free cash flow yield are included in the Sub-Index. At the time of each rebalance of the Sub-Index, the companies included in the Sub-Index are weighted in proportion to their trailing twelve month free cash flow, and weightings are capped at the lesser of (i) 2% or (ii) a percentage equal to 5% of a companys free float market capitalization, assuming Index market capitalization of $40 billion. The Sub-Index is reconstituted and rebalanced quarterly as of the close of business on the 3rd Friday of March, June, September, and December based on data as of the 1st Friday of the applicable rebalance month. The Nasdaq 100 Index The Nasdaq-100 Index (the Nasdaq-100) is designed to measure the performance of 100 of the largest non-financial companies by modified market capitalization listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market or the Nasdaq Global Market. The Nasdaq-100 generally includes securities issued by U.S. and non-U.S. issuers, including American depositary receipts (ADRs), common stocks, ordinary shares and tracking stocks; REITs and other investment companies are not eligible for index inclusion. The Nasdaq-100 includes approximately 100 of the largest non-financial securities listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market based on market capitalization. The Nasdaq 100 Index comprises securities of companies across major industries, including computer, biotechnology, healthcare, telecommunications and transportation. The Nasdaq-100 was developed by Nasdaq OMX. There is no minimum market capitalization requirement for inclusion in the Nasdaq-100. Inclusion is determined based on the top 100 largest issuers based on market capitalization meeting all other eligibility requirements described above. As of December 31, 2025, the range of market capitalizations of companies in the Nasdaq-100 was approximately $7.1 billion to $4.9 trillion. The Funds Investment Strategy Under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Funds net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) will be invested in equity securities that are the component securities of the Index. The Fund defines equity securities to mean common and preferred stocks, rights, warrants and depositary receipts. The 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. To the extent the Index concentrates (i.e., holds more than 25% of its total assets) in the securities of a particular industry or group of related industries, the Fund will concentrate its investments to approximately the same extent as the Index. The Index, and consequently the Fund, is expected to have significant exposure to sectors that are favored by the respective Sub-Indices. As of October 31, 2025, the Pacer US Cash Cows Index had significant exposure to companies in the Energy sector, while the Nasdaq 100 Index had significant exposure to companies in the Information Technology sector. The Fund is non-diversified and therefore may invest a larger percentage of its assets in the securities of a single issuer or small number of issuers than diversified funds.
