FAQs about Reverse Split

  2. What is the timing and effective date of the reverse split?

    The reverse split will become effective prior to market open on August 1, 2024. After this date, the ETFs will trade at their adjusted post-split prices.

    The performance of the ETFs is based on their underlying portfolio holdings and is not affected by the reverse split.
