Evolve US Equity UltraYield ETF Expected to Begin Trading on September 10, 2025

TORONTO, Sept. 4, 2025 /CNW/ - Evolve Funds Group Inc. ("Evolve" or the "Manager") is pleased to announce that it has filed a final prospectus with plans to bring Evolve US Equity UltraYield ETF ("BIGY") to Canadian investors. BIGY is designed to provide investors with modestly levered exposure to a portfolio of leading U.S. companies with a covered call strategy. BIGY is expected to begin trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") on September 10, 2025 under the ticker symbol BIGY (CAD Hedged), subject to TSX approval.

BIGY seeks to provide attractive income and long-term capital appreciation by investing in an equal-weighted portfolio of leading U.S. equity securities that have the potential to generate significant option premiums. To enhance yield, as well as to mitigate risk and reduce volatility, BIGY will employ a covered call option writing program at the discretion of the Manager. The level of covered call option writing may vary based on market volatility and other factors.

BIGY will use modest leverage in order to seek to achieve its investment objective. The maximum aggregate leverage of BIGY will not exceed approximately 33%, or 1.33x, of its NAV. Leverage will be created through the use of cash borrowings and/or Derivatives, or as otherwise permitted under applicable securities legislation.

Cash distributions, if any, on BIGY will be paid at least semi-monthly, with the possibility of more frequent distributions at the Manager's discretion.
