Insights

This distribution announcement for Roundhill's 0DTE covered call ETFs reveals significant monthly payouts, with QDTE leading at $0.803885 per share (1.85%). However, the negative 30-day SEC yields across all three funds (ranging from -0.40% to -0.49%) signal potential sustainability concerns. The high expense ratio of 0.95% impacts the overall return profile.

These distributions likely include return of capital, which effectively returns investors' principal rather than genuine investment income. While the distribution rates appear attractive, they may not represent true earnings generation. The fund's explicit statement about distributions potentially exceeding income and gains confirms this analysis. For income-focused investors, it's important to understand that these payouts might erode the investment base over time.

The 0DTE (zero days to expiration) covered call strategy employed by these ETFs represents an aggressive income generation approach in the current market environment. The strategy involves writing daily covered calls, which can generate premium income but may cap upside potential in strong bull markets. The negative SEC yields suggest the premium income isn't currently covering the fund expenses and distribution commitments.

The varying distribution rates between the funds (1.85% for QDTE vs. 0.63% for RDTE) reflect different underlying volatility environments, with the Innovation-100 index typically offering richer option premiums than small-caps. The high expense ratio of 0.95% is notable for an options-based strategy and creates a significant hurdle for generating positive returns.

The performance data quoted represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Returns less than one year are not annualized. For the most recent standardized and month-end performance, please click here: XDTE, QDTE, RDTE.

The Funds currently expect, but do not guarantee, to make distributions on a weekly basis. Distributions may exceed the Funds' income and gains for the Funds' taxable year. Distributions in excess of the Funds' current and accumulated earnings and profits will be treated as a return of capital. Distribution rates caused by unusually favorable market conditions may not be sustainable. Such conditions might not continue to exist and there should be no expectation that this performance will be repeated in the future. Please see the Supplemental Tax Information section of the webpage for more information on the distribution composition including the estimated return of capital. Current distributions may include return of capital.

*The Distribution Per Share (%) is calculated by dividing the most recent distribution by the fund NAV as of market close on 12/13/24.

**30-Day SEC Yield: Yield calculation that reflects the dividends and interest earned during the period after the deduction of the fund's expenses. It is also referred to as the "standardized yield".

All investing involves risk, including the risk of loss of principal. There is no guarantee the investment strategy will be successful. The funds faces numerous risks, including options risk, liquidity risk, market risk, cost of futures investment risk, clearing broker risk, commodity regulatory risk, futures contract risk, active management risk, active market risk, clearing broker risk, credit risk, derivatives risk, legislation and litigation risk, operational risk, trading issues risk, valuation risk and non-diversification risk. For a detailed list of fund risks see the prospectus.

Covered Call Strategy Risk. A covered call strategy involves writing (selling) covered call options in return for the receipt of premiums. The seller of the option gives up the opportunity to benefit from price increases in the underlying instrument above the exercise price of the options, but continues to bear the risk of underlying instrument price declines. The premiums received from the options may not be sufficient to offset any losses sustained from underlying instrument price declines, over time. As a result, the risks associated with writing covered call options may be similar to the risks associated with writing put options. Exchanges may suspend the trading of options during periods of abnormal market volatility. Suspension of trading may mean that an option seller is unable to sell options at a time that may be desirable or advantageous to do.

Flex Options Risk. The Fund will utilize FLEX Options issued and guaranteed for settlement by the Options Clearing Corporation (OCC). In the unlikely event that the OCC becomes insolvent or is otherwise unable to meet its settlement obligations, the Fund could suffer significant losses. Additionally, FLEX Options may be less liquid than standard options. In a less liquid market for the FLEX Options, the Fund may have difficulty closing out certain FLEX Options positions at desired times and prices. The values of FLEX Options do not increase or decrease at the same rate as the reference asset and may vary due to factors other than the price of reference asset.

0DTE Options Risk.*** The Fund's use of zero days to expiration, known as "0DTE" options, presents additional risks. Due to the short time until their expiration, 0DTE options are more sensitive to sudden price movements and market volatility than options with more time until expiration. Because of this, the timing of trades utilizing 0DTE options becomes more critical. Although the Fund intends to enter into 0DTE options trades on market open, or shortly thereafter, even a slight delay in the execution of these trades can significantly impact the outcome of the trade. Such options may also suffer from low liquidity, making it more difficult for the Fund to enter into its positions each morning at desired prices. The bid-ask spreads on 0DTE options can be wider than with traditional options, increasing the Fund's transaction costs and negatively affecting its returns. Additionally, the proliferation of 0DTE options is relatively new and may therefore be subject to rule changes and operational frictions. To the extent that the OCC enacts new rules relating to 0DTE options that make it impractical or impossible for the Fund to utilize 0DTE options to effectuate its investment strategy, it may instead utilize options with the shortest remaining maturity available or it may utilize swap agreements to provide the desired exposure.

Roundhill Financial Inc. serves as the investment advisor. The Funds are distributed by Foreside Fund Services, LLC which is not affiliated with Roundhill Financial Inc., U.S. Bank, or any of their affiliates.
