Launched on July 9, 2025, RAAA was the first AAA CLO ETF which is designed to boost yields by deploying leverage. The actively managed fund invests in a diversified portfolio of AAA-rated CLO bonds and seeks to deliver current income through monthly distributions, with leverage limited to 50% of the portfolio. As the CLO ETF space continues to grow – recently surpassing $45 billion in AUM1 – RAAA has become an attractive option for investors seeking differentiated returns among AAA CLO ETF offerings. Since its launch July 9, 2025 through June 30, 2026, RAAA returned 5.29% on an NAV basis and 5.48% on a market price basis, compared with 4.99% for the fund’s benchmark, the J.P. Morgan CLO AAA Index, during the same period. In the first half of 2026, RAAA outperformed all U.S.-listed AAA CLO ETFs based on total return, delivering 2.54% on an NAV basis and 2.73% on a market price basis. Past performance does not guarantee future results. <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=WQb4USnJI0xXbDjSxsknH3ecfZEYpO2emEdhM5U5mwZRSepVHxs1eISYNu1k-8FPxlHn8fC0yT0EGzoErgnR0OJ-i1jQq2L6044WWftnS5cexKoZwkqF7WMsHg-O3nXRAEBhmD0HzCfESZ2s3eanZ5ygDUgyricrJwp8o38Ia0w=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="">Click here for fact sheet.</a> “There has been tremendous growth in the CLO ETF market, increasing the need for innovation, flexibility, and differentiation,” said John Kim, Co-Founder and CEO of Reckoner. “We launched RAAA one year ago to give investors accessible exposure to AAA CLOs that offer capital preservation seeking enhanced yield using leverage.

Important Disclosures Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Diversification cannot assure a profit or protect against loss in a down market. An investor should consider the investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses of each fund carefully before investing. A prospectus and a summary prospectus which contains this and other information about each fund may be obtained by visiting https://funds.reckoner.com/assets/pdfs/RAAA-RCLO-Prospectus.pdf and https://funds.reckoner.com/assets/pdfs/ReinvestingETFs-Prospectus.pdf. The prospectus and the summary prospectus should be read carefully before investing. Collateralized Loan Obligations (“CLOs”) are structured products that issue different tranches, with varying degrees of risk, which are backed by an underlying portfolio consisting primarily of below investment grade corporate loans. Investments in CLOs presents risks similar to those of other credit investments, including interest rate risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, prepayment risk, and the risk of defaults of the underlying assets. Reckoner Yield Enhanced AAA CLO ETF and Reckoner Yield Enhanced AAA CLO Reinvesting ETF are different from most funds in that each seeks leveraged returns, which makes it riskier than funds that do not use leverage. Periods of higher market volatility may affect each fund’s return more than the returns of funds that do not use leverage. Accordingly, each fund may not be suitable for all investors and should be used only by knowledgeable investors who understand the potential consequences of seeking leveraged investment results. Shareholders should actively manage and monitor their investments. J.P.
