Abacus FCF Innovation Leaders 

The ABOT ETF targets U.S. companies across all market capitalizations that demonstrate robust free cash flow and a commitment to innovation. Its selection methodology identifies firms within the top quartile (25%) of an eligible universe, based on a comprehensive evaluation across five key criteria: the quality of their earnings, profits generated from research and development (R&D), the proportion of R&D investment relative to total assets, asset turnover efficiency, and financial leverage. Target weights for each security are determined by combining these five factors with the company's market capitalization. The index then selects a maximum of 120 companies, or continues to include securities until 90% of the cumulative portfolio weight has been achieved, whichever limit is reached first. It is important to note the fund's operational history, marked by several name and index changes. Prior to November 29, 2021, it was known as the TrimTabs Donoghue Forlines Risk Managed Innovation ETF, tracking the TrimTabs Donoghue Forlines Risk Managed Free Cash Flow Innovation Index. Between that date and November 7, 2023, it operated as the Donoghue Forlines Risk Managed Innovation ETF, followed the FCF Risk Managed Quality Innovation Index, and employed a risk-managed strategy for downside protection. More recently, before November 13, 2024, the fund was named Donoghue Forlines Innovation ETF and traded under the ticker DFNV.
