Insights

The rapid accumulation of $1 billion in AUM across Roundhill's 0DTE covered call ETF suite represents significant market validation for this innovative income strategy. The outperformance versus underlying indices is particularly noteworthy - XDTE has delivered 15.71% vs S&P 500's 13.76%, while maintaining weekly distributions.

The "night effect" advantage through uncapped overnight exposure provides a unique edge over traditional covered call ETFs. This structural advantage, combined with the high-frequency 0DTE options strategy, has proven effective in both generating income and capturing market upside. The 0.95% expense ratio, while not low, appears justified by the complex strategy's execution requirements and performance delivered.

The success of these pioneering 0DTE ETFs signals a growing appetite for sophisticated options-based income strategies among retail investors. The suite's ability to attract $1 billion AUM in less than a year demonstrates strong product-market fit and potential industry disruption.

Each fund's outperformance of its benchmark index challenges the conventional wisdom that covered call strategies necessarily underperform in rising markets. This could reshape how investors view options-based ETFs, potentially leading to increased adoption of similar products. The weekly distribution feature particularly appeals to income-focused investors seeking more frequent payouts than traditional monthly dividend products.

XDTE, QDTE and RDTE are the first-ever ETFs to sell zero-days-to-expiry (0DTE) options to generate income and provide weekly distributions to shareholders.

NEW YORK, Dec. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Roundhill Investments, an ETF sponsor focused on innovative financial products, is pleased to announce that its suite of 0DTE covered call ETFs, including the Roundhill S&P 500® 0DTE Covered Call Strategy ETF (XDTE), the Roundhill Innovation-100 0DTE Covered Call Strategy ETF (QDTE), and the Roundhill Small Cap 0DTE Covered Call Strategy ETF (RDTE), have surpassed $1 billion in combined assets under management (AUM).1

In addition to providing weekly distributions, the suite has delivered strong total returns for shareholders. As of the most recent quarter end, all three ETFs had outperformed the underlying indices that they trade options on. This outperformance has been attributable to several factors, including the "night effect" captured via uncapped overnight market exposure, a unique feature of the suite when compared against other covered call strategies in the marketplace.

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.

QDTE & XDTE
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.

New Fund Risk. The fund is new and has a limited operating history.

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.
