OAKVILLE, Ontario (BUSINESS WIRE | French) – Harvest Portfolios Group Inc. (“Harvest”) is pleased to announce that it has filed a preliminary prospectus with the Canadian securities regulators for the Harvest Premium Yield Canadian Bank ETF (“HPYB”) and the Harvest Premium Yield Enhanced ETF (“HPYE”).

HYPB provides investors access to a Canadian Banks equity portfolio seeking long-term capital appreciation, on a levered basis, utilizing an active option strategy designed to provide steady monthly cash distributions, while HPYE provides investors access to the same strategy on a broad portfolio of equities.

“Harvest is pleased to offer two new premium yield ETFs for investors seeking equity exposure and attractive monthly cash distributions.”, said Michael Kovacs, President and CEO of Harvest, “HPYB and HPYE complement our growing array of equity income ETFs.”

Investment Objective

HPYB will seek to provide Unitholders with (i) the opportunity for capital appreciation by investing, directly or indirectly, on a levered basis, in a portfolio of Equity Securities of Canadian banks; (ii) regular cash distributions; and (iii) lower overall volatility of portfolio returns than would otherwise be experienced by owning the securities held by HPYB, directly. To achieve lower overall volatility of portfolio returns and generate monthly premiums, HPYB will write covered call and/or covered put options on the Equity Securities held in its portfolio. The level of option writing may vary based on market volatility and other factors.

HPYE will seek to provide Unitholders with (i) the opportunity for capital appreciation by investing, directly or indirectly, on a levered basis, in a portfolio of Equity Securities; (ii) regular cash distributions; and (iii) lower overall volatility of portfolio returns than would otherwise be experienced by owning the Equity Securities directly. To achieve lower overall volatility of portfolio returns and generate monthly premiums, HPYE will write covered call and/or covered put options on the Equity Securities held in its portfolio. The level of option writing may vary based on market volatility and other factors. Harvest, a registered investment fund manager and portfolio manager, will act as promoter, trustee, manager and portfolio manager of HPYB and HPYE and will be responsible for the administration of HPYB and HPYE.

Disclaimer

For Information Purposes Only. All comments, opinions and views expressed are of a general nature and should not be considered as advice and/or a recommendation to purchase or sell the mentioned securities or used to engage in personal investment strategies.

Commissions, management fees and expenses all may be associated with investing in Harvest Exchange Traded Funds, managed by Harvest Portfolios Group Inc. (the Fund(s)). Please read the relevant prospectus before investing. The indicated rates of return are the historical annual compounded total returns (except for figures of one year or less, which are simple total returns) including changes in unit value and reinvestment of all distributions and do not take into account sales, redemption, distribution or optional charges or income taxes payable by any securityholder that would have reduced returns. The funds are not guaranteed, their values change frequently and past performance may not be repeated. Distributions are paid to you in cash unless you request, pursuant to your participation in a distribution reinvestment plan, that they be reinvested into Class A, Class B or Class U units of the Fund. If the Fund earns less than the amounts distributed, the difference is a return of capital. Tax, investment and all other decisions should be made with guidance from a qualified professional.

The current yield represents an annualized amount that is comprised of 12 unchanged monthly distributions (using the most recent month’s distribution figure multiplied by 12) as a percentage of the closing market price of the Fund. The current yield does not represent historical returns of the ETF but represents the distribution an investor would receive if the most recent distribution stayed the same going forward.

Certain statements in the Harvest Insights are forward looking. Forward-looking statements (“FLS”) are statements that are predictive in nature, depend upon or refer to future events or conditions, or that include words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” or “estimate,” or other similar expressions. Statements that look forward in time or include anything other than historical information are subject to risks and uncertainties, and actual results, actions or events could differ materially from those set forth in the FLS.

FLS are not guarantees of future performance and are by their nature based on numerous assumptions, which include, amongst other things, that (i) the Fund can attract and maintain investors and have sufficient capital under management to effect their investment strategies, (ii) the investment strategies will produce the results intended by the portfolio managers, and (iii) the markets will react and perform in a manner consistent with the investment strategies. Although the FLS contained herein are based upon what the portfolio manager believe to be reasonable assumptions, the portfolio manager cannot assure that actual results will be consistent with these FLS.

Unless required by applicable law, Harvest Portfolios Group Inc. does not undertake, and specifically disclaim, any intention or obligation to update or revise any FLS, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
