The corrected release follows: Following the historic IPO of SpaceX, Leverage Shares by Themes today announced the launch of the Leverage Shares 2X Long SpaceX Daily ETF (CBOE: SPCH) and the Leverage Shares 2X Short SpaceX Daily ETF (CBOE: SSPC). Both funds begin trading on June 15 on Cboe at 9:30 AM. SpaceX’s public listing has become one of the most closely watched capital-markets events in recent history; The company is seeking to raise approximately $75 billion, which would make it the largest IPO in history if completed at that size, surpassing Saudi Aramco’s 2019 listing. Reported investor demand has been extraordinary, with Reuters reporting more than $250 billion of indications of interest, or approximately 3.5 to 4.0 times the planned offering size. Retail interest has also been a defining feature of the transaction, with reports indicating that as much as 30% of the IPO may be allocated to retail investors. SPCH and SSPC are designed specifically to meet this massive retail demand. The funds provide active traders and sophisticated investors with transparent, efficient tools to express either a bullish or bearish short-term view on SpaceX. By launching both funds simultaneously, Leverage Shares by Themes offers market participants a complete toolkit to navigate the volatility and momentum that accompany this landmark listing. SPCH seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, corresponding to 200% (2x) of the daily performance of SpaceX common stock. Conversely, SSPC seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, corresponding to -200% (-2x) of the daily performance of SpaceX common stock. Both funds are actively managed and utilize swaps, options, and other derivatives to provide leveraged exposure. Disrupting the Market with Lower Fees on Leveraged Exposure A core focus of this launch is delivering targeted 2x and -2x leveraged exposure at a highly competitive price point. Both SPCH and SSPC debut with a 0.75% management fee, positioning the funds among the lowest-cost daily leveraged single-stock ETFs in the market: <ul><li>On the Short Side (-2x): The 0.75% fee for SSPC is approximately 47% lower than the 1.41% industry average for comparable leveraged ETFs that provide access to -2x SpaceX.*</li><li>On the Long Side (2x): The 0.75% fee for SPCH is approximately 38% lower than the 1.20% industry average for comparable leveraged ETFs that provide access to 2x SpaceX.* </li></ul> While competitor fees in the leveraged single-stock space reach as high as 2.00%, this pricing structure provides a significant cost advantage to cost-conscious retail traders who utilize leverage. “At Themes, we focus on leveraged ETF solutions because retail investors and active traders increasingly want efficient tools to express high-conviction views around major market events, and they shouldn't have to overpay for them,” said Jose C. Gonzalez Navarro, CEO and Co-Founder of Themes ETFs. “Retail demand for the SpaceX IPO has been remarkable, and investors deserve access to both sides of the trade at a highly competitive price. Fees matter immensely, especially in leveraged products where costs can quickly compound and eat into returns. Our goal is to combine timely 2x and -2x exposure with strict fee discipline and transparency.” For more information about these ETFs and other products offered by Leverage Shares by Themes, please visit <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=1pZ7vTmX1vDYRw8KEckTWAXVjhp7E2xIrrMc9bAR36qP5WYvlhEuWvf2PLkXhHeC6Efu0qcbMSqtBqym47FXM7JaPbs7g44gA-1BkKcgR3k1iqsF_IxRdl5d0q8fvwtm" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="www.leverageshares.com/us">www.leverageshares.com/us</a> For media inquiries, please contact: Arielle Shternfeld, Director, Communications and Advisor Relations <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=EFHf5nfuZ80LucC1xmiKIZ4wjvQln5gCs2IlTvFvKk6gQB0pMF4vt5c_qBDDSDGOD5T0Pnn_6fvJGn0LaRn4OztuPcrrth4fbScW1gABNx4qpfiPbtQ4_B0UQu4_Cjy7" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="ashternfeld@themesetfs.com">ashternfeld@themesetfs.com</a> +1 (860) 716-3686 About Themes ETFs: Themes ETFs was established by the Co-Founders of Leverage Shares in 2023 to offer thematic and sector-based products in the US.

A Fund's prospectus and summary prospectus should be read carefully before investing. Newly launched Funds have risks associated with a limited operating history. Because of daily rebalancing and the compounding of each day’s return over time, the return of the Fund for periods longer than a single day will be the result of each day’s returns compounded over the period, which will very likely differ from 200% of the return of the underlying stock over the same period. The Fund will lose money if the underlying stock performance is flat over time, and because of daily rebalancing, the underlying stock’s volatility, and the effects of compounding, it is even possible that the Fund will lose money over time while the underlying stock’s performance increases over a period longer than a single day. The Fund is not suitable for all investors. The Fund is designed to be utilized only by knowledgeable investors who understand the potential consequences of seeking daily leveraged (2X) investment results, understand the risks associated with the use of leverage and are willing to monitor their portfolios frequently.
