Fund Description
The Fund uses a “passive” or indexing approach to try to achieve the Fund’s investment objective. Unlike many investment companies, the Fund does not try to “beat” the Index and does not seek temporary defensive positions when markets decline or appear overvalued. The Fund generally expects to use a replication strategy. A replication strategy is an indexing strategy that involves investing in the securities of the Index in approximately the same proportions as in the Index. However, the Fund may utilize a representative sampling strategy with respect to the Index when a replication strategy might be detrimental to shareholders, such as when there are practical difficulties or substantial costs involved in compiling a portfolio of equity securities to follow the Index, in instances in which a security in the Index becomes temporarily illiquid, unavailable or less liquid, or as a result of legal restrictions or limitations (such as tax diversification requirements) that apply to the Fund but not the Index.
The Fund invests 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in securities that comprise the Index. The Index tracks the performance of the equity securities (or corresponding American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) or Global Depositary Receipts (“GDRs”)) of companies engaged in the silver mining industry, subject to the market capitalization screen as described below. All securities are assigned to an individual category by Metals Focus, an independent precious metals research consultancy. These categories include Project Development, Silver Mining, Streaming, Diversified Mining, Gold Mining, Zinc Mining, and Copper Mining. Eligible companies include companies that derive a majority of their revenues from silver mining, have a significant market share of global silver production, or are principally engaged in exploration and development activities related to new silver production as defined by Metal Focus.
Securities are then screened as of the Reconstitution Reference Date (defined below) for investability to determine initial inclusion (e.g., must not be listed on an exchange in a country which employs certain restrictions on foreign capital investment), a minimum market capitalization of $20million, a minimum three minimum three-month average daily dollar trading volume of $10,000, and subject to the market capitalization weightings described below.
The Index is rebalanced quarterly in February, May, August and November in connection with the Index’s reconstitution. The Reconstitution Reference Date is either the last trading day of April or October. As of September30, 2025, the Index had 55 constituents.
Weighting. The Index is a modified theme-adjusted free float market capitalization-weighted index. A theme-adjusted free float market value is calculated for each Index constituent and then constituent weightings are determined based on each Index constituent’s theme-adjusted free float market value, subject to certain adjustments. For additional information about the Index’s weighting process see “Additional Information About the Fund’s Strategies and Risks — Principal Investment Strategies.”
The Index is owned, calculated, and maintained by Nasdaq, Inc. (the “Index Provider”), which is independent of the Fund, Amplify Investments LLC, the Fund’s investment adviser (the “Adviser” or “Amplify Investments”), and Tidal Investments LLC (“Tidal” or the “Sub-Adviser”). The Index Provider may make adjustments to the constituents or their weights in the Index in between scheduled rebalances and reconstitutions of the Index as the Index Provider deems appropriate to ensure the integrity of the Index.
The Fund rebalances its portfolio in accordance with its Index, and, therefore, any changes to the Index’s rebalance schedule will result in corresponding changes to the Fund’s rebalance schedule.
Concentration Policy. The Fund will not concentrate its investments (i.e., invest more than 25% of the value of its total assets) in securities of issuers in any one industry or group of industries, except to the extent that the Index concentrates in an industry or group of industries. As of the date of this prospectus, the Index is concentrated in the metals and mining industries.
Diversification Status. The Fund is classified as “non-diversified” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).
