Fund Investment Objective

The TrimTabs Donoghue Forlines Risk Managed Innovation ETF seeks to track investment results of TrimTabs Donoghue Forlines Risk Managed Free Cash Flow Innovation Index that provides risk-managed exposure to U.S. publicly traded companies with strong free cash flow and strong research and development (“R&D”) investment.

Where does DFNV fit into a portfolio?

The TrimTabs Donoghue Forlines Risk Managed Innovation ETF is a strategic allocation to investor portfolios that fits outside of traditional “style box” portfolio construction. Because technology is embedded in every sector of the new economy, innovation cannot be boxed into sectors or styles. This ETF is a core position as part of an overall asset allocation to equities.

Why invest in DFNV?

DFNV provides risk-managed exposure to publicly traded companies with strong free cash flow and strong research and development (R&D) investment

Advances in technology and healthcare are now embedded in every sector of the global economy (financial services, manufacturing, consumer discretionary first among them), which potentially changes how returns in the equity markets, public and private, may be produced in the future; DFNV is constructed to identify and adapt to those trends.

R&D spending combined with strong free cash flow generation have been responsible for a subset of corporations’ emergence as new leaders in global markets; DFNV includes companies across all sectors that maintain high R&D intensity and strong free cash flow generation

We believe that the combination of our R&D /Free Cash Flow Innovation with Risk Management is a breakthrough in Index and ETF construction.

Expense Ratio: 0.69%. The performance data quoted represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will uctuate so that an investor's shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost and current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Performance current to the most recent month-end can be obtained by calling (toll free 800-617-0004). Short term performance, in particular, is not a good indication of the fund's future performance, and an investment should not be made based solely on returns.

There is no guarantee that DFNV will achieve its investment objective. Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. Because the Fund is an ETF (rather than a mutual fund), shares are bought and sold at market price (not NAV), may trade at a discount or premium to NAV, and are not individually redeemable. Owners of the shares may acquire those shares from the Fund and tender those shares for redemption to the Fund in Creation Unit aggregations only, consisting of 25,000 shares. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns. Investments in the Fund include risks associated with small-and mid-cap securities, which involve limited liquidity and greater volatility than large-cap securities. Because the Fund invests in ETFs, an investor will indirectly bear the principal risks of the underlying funds, including illiquidity, and an investment in the Fund will entail more costs and expenses than a direct investment in the Underlying ETFs. Passive funds that seek to track an index may hold the component securities of the underlying index regardless of the current or projected performance of a specific security or relevant market as a whole, which could cause the Fund returns to be lower than if the Fund employed an active strategy. The performance of the Fund may diverge from that of its Index. Downside Protection Model Risk. Neither the Adviser nor the Sub-Adviser can offer assurances that the downside protection model employed by the Underlying Index methodology will achieve its intended results, or that downside protection will be provided during periods of time when the Equity Portfolio is declining or during any period of time deemed to be a bear market. Investment in a fund that utilizes a downside protection model that seeks to minimize risk only during certain prolonged bear market environments may not be appropriate for every investor seeking a particular risk profile. The Fund’s investments in derivatives may pose risks in addition to and greater than those associated with investing directly in the underlying assets, including counterparty, leverage and liquidity risks. The Fund may participate in futures markets, which are highly volatile. The Fund’s investments in derivatives may pose risks in addition to and greater than those associated with investing directly in the underlying assets, including counterparty, leverage and liquidity risks. Active and frequent trading of portfolio securities may result in increased transaction costs to the Fund and may also result in higher taxes if Shares are held in a taxable account.

The TrimTabs Donoghue Forlines Risk Managed Free Cash Flow Innovation Index tracks the performance of a rules-based strategy that seeks to provide downside-protected exposure to U.S. equities with strong Free Cash Flow and R&D Investment, selected by a proprietary Free Cash Flow Innovation factor model. The index directs 50% of its position into short-term U.S. Treasury during a defensive regime. It is not possible to invest directly in an index

Free Cash Flow (FCF) represents the cash that a company is able to generate after accounting for capital expenditures.

Alpha is a measure of performance on a risk-adjusted basis.
