The corrected release follows: Tidal Financial Group and Defiance ETFs announce forward stock splits for three of Defiance’s leveraged exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”). These actions are designed to increase the number of outstanding shares and reduce each fund’s trading price per share, improving accessibility and liquidity for investors. The forward stock splits will apply to shareholders of record as of Monday, August 17, 2026, and will be effective at market open on Tuesday, August 18, 2026.

For example, a 4-for-1 split will result in shareholders receiving three additional shares for every one share held before the split. The total market value of each investor’s holdings will not change immediately following the splits, as the share price will adjust proportionally. No action is required by current shareholders. The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) will process the splits automatically, and shareholders will see updated share balances in their accounts following the effective date. Fractional Shares and Tax Implications The forward split may result in some shareholders being entitled to fractional shares. Shareholders with fractional shares may receive cash compensation equivalent to the value of the fraction, subject to the policies of their broker. This redemption may have tax implications, and shareholders are advised to consult their tax advisors for personalized guidance. There will be no transaction fee for redeeming fractional shares.
