National Bank Investments Announces Estimated Annual Distribution Amounts for Its Exchange-Traded Funds

Montreal, November 22, 2024

National Bank Investments Inc. (‟NBI”) announced today the estimated annual reinvested capital gain amounts to be paid for 2024 to unitholders of NBI Exchange-Traded Funds (‟NBI ETFs”), as indicated in the table below.

Unitholders of record on December 30, 2024, will receive the capital gain distributions on January 7, 2025. The capital gain distributions will be reinvested, and the resulting units will be immediately consolidated, so the number of units held by each investor will not change. Investors holding their units outside registered plans will have taxable amounts to report and will see an increase in the adjusted cost base of their units.

These estimated amounts are for the reinvested capital gain distributions only and do not include the ongoing periodic cash distribution amounts to be announced later.

Please note that the amounts are only an estimation based on data as of October 31, 2024. Therefore, the final capital gain distribution amounts could change by the end of the NBI ETFs’ fiscal year on December 15, 2024. NBI expects to issue a press release on or around December 18, 2024, confirming the final amounts of the reinvested distributions for all NBI ETFs (subject to a further revision of the per unit amounts resulting from subscription and redemption activity prior to the record date). The final amounts of the reinvested distributions are only an estimation and may vary between December 18, 2024, and December 30, 2024. Generally, reinvested distributions consist solely of capital gains.

Here is an estimate of the annual per-unit reinvested capital gain distributions for each NBI ETF:
