The Simplify Multi-QIS Alternative ETF (QIS) seeks to provide positive absolute returns and income by investing in a diversified portfolio of quantitative strategies chosen to offer an uncorrelated positive source of returns.

The fund focuses on opportunities beyond common beta exposures, ensuring that its performance remains independent of market factors such as equities, interest rates, and commodities. 

QIS emphasizes comprehensive risk analysis and hedges against both the downside (negative tail risks) and upside (positive tail risks). This strategy prioritizes maximizing performance through strategic positioning and diversified risk allocation across a range of asset classes and return drivers.

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 rate may contain return of capital but an estimate cannot be provided at this time. Please refer to the 19a-1 notices for additional details regarding the distributions’ composition once they become available.

The performance data quoted represents past performance and is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted.

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.
