HAMILTON ETFS CONFIRMS 2023 ANNUAL SPECIAL CASH DISTRIBUTIONS

Hamilton Capital Partners Inc. confirmed today the annual special cash distributions for its suite of ETFs (exchange-traded funds), all of which trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange, for the period ended Dec. 31, 2023. Please note, this is an update to the estimated special cash distributions previously announced on Dec. 20, 2023.

ETFs are required to distribute any net income and capital gains earned in the year. The special cash distributions will be paid in cash, or if the unitholder has enrolled in the dividend reinvestment plan (DRIP), reinvested in additional units of the ETFs. Note, the amounts herein do not include the regular cash distributions announced on Dec. 20, 2023.

As noted and previously estimated, Hamilton ETFs confirmed that none of its ETFs will have an annual non-cash distribution for the 2023 tax year.

The record date for the special cash distributions is Dec. 29, 2023. The payment date for the special cash distributions will be Jan. 8, 2024. In early 2024, the tax characteristics of all 2023 distributions for the ETFs will be reported to brokers via CDS.
