Recent Technology Insights
Disclaimer
Harvest Tech Achievers Growth & Income ETF (HTA) originally commenced operations as a TSX listed closed-end fund on May 26, 2015 and converted into an exchange-traded fund on June 22, 2017.
Commissions, management fees and expenses all may be associated with investing in Harvest Exchange Traded Funds (managed by Harvest Portfolios Group Inc.). Please read the relevant prospectus before investing. The indicated rates of return are the historical annual compounded total returns including changes in unit value and reinvestment of all distributions and do not take into account 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 the Class of units that you own 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.
* Represents aggregate AUM of all classes denominated in Canadian dollars.
** Inception Date: HTA Class A is 2015/05/26; HTA Class B is 2020/03/12; HTA Class U is 2017/06/22; HTAE is 2022/10/25.
*** In addition to cash distributions, the Fund could have notional non-cash distributions which are paid annually (if any). There is no impact on net asset value per unit. The notional distribution is added to the cost base of the ETF and is taxable if not held in a registered account (RRSP/RRIF/TFSA, FHSA and RESP).
