The Simplify Hedged Equity ETF (HEQT) seeks to provide capital appreciation by offering US large cap exposure while investing in a series of put-spread collars designed to serve as an equity hedge and help reduce volatility.

Equities + put-spread collars have become a popular way to create more conservative, lower volatility equity investments. They allow upside market participation with downside hedges to help reduce risk. By deploying a ladder of collars that expire over 3 sequential months, the fund seeks to create a hedged equity experience that is additionally robust to rebalancing luck.

The Distribution Rate is the annual rate an investor would receive if the most recently declared distribution, which includes option income, remained the same going forward. The Distribution Rate is calculated by multiplying an ETF’s Distribution per Share by twelve (12), and dividing the resulting amount by the ETF’s most recent NAV. The Distribution Rate represents a single distribution from the ETF and does not represent its total return. The distribution may include a combination of ordinary dividends, capital gains, and return of investor capital and has the potential to change during any given tax year. Please refer to the 19a-1 Notice, which can be found on the Fund’s website, for information regarding the composition of distributions, including return of capital. The final determination of a distribution’s tax character will be made on Form 1099-DIV.

Management Fees

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, sell, and hold shares of the Fund. Investors purchasing or selling shares of the Fund in the secondary market may be subject to costs (including customary brokerage commissions) charged by their broker. The fee table located in the prospectus and updates in prospectus supplements prevail.

Annual Fund Operating Expenses (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)

Distribution and Service (12b-1) Fees0.00%
Other Expenses0.00%
Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses10.03%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses0.53%
Fee Waiver2(0.10%)
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver0.43%

1. Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses are the indirect costs of investing in other investment companies. The operating expenses in this fee table do not correlate to the expense ratio in the Fund’s financial highlights because the financial statements include only the direct operating expenses incurred by the Fund.

The above frequency distribution chart presents information about the difference between the daily market price for shares of the Fund and the Fund's reported Net Asset Value. The amount that the Fund's market price is above the reported NAV is called the premium. The amount that the Fund's market price is below the reported NAV is called the discount. The market price is determined using the midpoint between the highest bid and the lowest offer on the listing exchange, as of the time that the Fund's NAV is calculated (usually 4:00 p.m. EST). The horizontal axis of the chart shows the premium or discount expressed in basis points. The vertical axis indicates the number of trading days in the period covered by the chart. Each bar in the chart shows the number of trading days in which the Fund traded within the premium/discount range indicated.
