Market volatility can be stressful for investors. Because losses are painful, many investors sell during downturns, but miss out on early stages of the market rebound. TrueShares Structured Outcome ETFs were created to break this cycle. They’re uncapped buffered ETFs that aim to protect the first 8-12% of losses while capturing more of the upside.

The outcome may be realized only if you hold shares on the first day of the Investment Period and continue to hold them on the last day of the Investment Period. If you purchase shares after the Investment Period has begun or sell shares prior to the Investment Period’s conclusion, you may experience investment returns very different from, and potentially less favorable than, those that the Fund seeks to provide. There is no guarantee that a Fund will successfully achieve its investment objective. A shareholder that holds shares for an entire Investment Period may still lose his or her investment in the Fund.
Each Fund seeks to provide only those shareholders that hold shares for the entire Investment Period with a buffer against the first 8%-12% of S&P 500 Price Index losses (based upon the value of the S&P 500 Price Index at the time the Fund entered into the FLEX Options (or standard exchange-listed options) on the first day of the Investment Period) during the Investment Period. Shareholders will bear any and all S&P 500 Price Index losses exceeding the 8%-12% buffer. The buffer is determined based on the performance of the S&P 500 Price Index only and does not take into account the effect of a Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses on its performance. In addition, the returns that each Fund generally seeks to provide does not include the costs of purchasing Fund shares and certain expenses incurred by the Fund. While each Fund seeks to limit losses for shareholders who hold their shares for the entire Investment Period, there is no guarantee that the Adviser will implement a Fund’s investment strategy successfully or that such investment strategy, including the buffer, will produce the intended results.
As explained in greater detail in this Prospectus, if a Fund has experienced certain levels of gains or losses since the beginning of an Investment Period, there may be little to no ability for the Fund to achieve gains or benefit from the buffer for the remainder of the Investment Period regardless of the Adviser’s effective implementation of the Fund’s investment strategy.
Depending on market conditions at the time of purchase, it also is possible that a shareholder that purchases shares after an Investment Period has begun may lose his or her entire investment. For example, if a Fund decreases in value beyond the pre-determined 8%-12% buffer after an Investment Period begins, an investor purchasing shares of the Fund at that price may not benefit from the buffer even if the investor holds the shares for the remainder of the Investment Period. Similarly, if a Fund increases in value, an investor purchasing shares of the Fund at that price may not benefit from the buffer until the Fund’s value decreases to its value at the commencement of the Investment Period. An investment in a Fund is only appropriate for shareholders willing to bear those losses. The Funds’ website contains important information that will assist you in determining whether to buy shares.
