How did the Fund perform in the last year?

The Fund is an actively-managed exchange-traded fund (“ETF”) that seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in equity securities of U.S. and non-U.S. “Blockchain Companies”, as defined below, and in long positions in U.S. listed bitcoin futures (“Bitcoin Futures”) contracts. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 25% of its assets in Blockchain Companies and will have notional exposure to Bitcoin Futures equal to at least 20% of the total assets of the Fund.

 

Blockchain Companies include companies that derive or are expected to derive at least 50% of their revenues, operating income, or assets from digital asset mining, blockchain and digital asset transactions, blockchain applications, blockchain and digital asset hardware, and blockchain and digital asset integration. Blockchain Companies also include U.S.-listed operating companies that directly own a material amount of digital assets.

 

The Fund uses the Coin Metrics Bitcoin Index as its secondary benchmark index (the "Secondary Index"). The Secondary Index is designed to measure the performance of the top cryptocurrencies by market capitalization. 

 

For the 12-month period ended October 31, 2025 (the “reporting period”), the Fund increased 95.05%, while the Secondary Index increased 56.13%. The Fund had a net asset value of $71.47 per share on October 31, 2024 and ended the reporting period with a net asset value of $108.09 per share on October 31, 2025.

 

During the reporting period, the Fund delivered a positive performance as bitcoin-linked assets and blockchain equities advanced. Institutional demand strengthened with persistent inflows into U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs. The SEC's approval of in-kind creations for crypto ETFs improved market efficiency, while a federal stablecoin framework enacted in July 2025 added regulatory clarity. The Federal Reserve's 0.25 percentage point rate cut in September was supportive of the Fund’s assets, and the SEC's adoption of generic listing standards for spot crypto ETFs created additional market depth for digital assets, all of which contributed to the Fund’s positive performance during the reporting period.

How did the Fund perform in the last year?

The Fund seeks to provide investment results that correspond to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the CoinDesk Bitcoin Trend Indicator Futures Index (“Secondary Index”). The Fund is passively managed which means the investment adviser does not attempt to take defensive positions in declining markets. The Fund generally seeks to fully replicate the Secondary Index.

 

The Secondary Index is designed to provide exposure to a strategy that systematically and dynamically allocates between exposure to U.S. listed bitcoin futures contracts and cash based on the Bitcoin Trend Indicator, a signal which conveys the direction and strength of the current price trend of Bitcoin. Bitcoin is represented by the CoinDesk Bitcoin Futures Excess Return Index and cash is represented by the passively-managed Global X 1-3 Month T-Bill ETF, an affiliate of the Fund.

 

For the 12-month period ended October 31, 2025 (the “reporting period”), the Fund increased 42.33%, while the Secondary Index increased 36.07%. The Fund had a net asset value of $26.09 per share on October 31, 2024 and ended the reporting period with a net asset value of $36.21 per share on October 31, 2025.

 

Performance over the reporting period was positive, helped by a strong upswing in bitcoin prices as the token climbed back to previous highs amid improving risk sentiment and U.S. policy dynamics. Fresh demand from U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs provided a consistent tailwind, with multiple runs of net inflows towards the end of the reporting period that supported bitcoin’s price and mitigated drawdowns. On the macro side, the Federal Reserve’s September 2025 0.25 percentage point rate cut and a softer growth benefited digital currencies, contributing to the Fund’s positive performance. Periodic pullbacks tied to shifts in Fed guidance did spark brief ETF outflow days and higher volatility, but these episodes were typically short-lived and followed by renewed inflows as investors reassessed policy odds. Overall, the combination of supportive U.S. flows, easier policy signals, and deeper futures market liquidity underpinned the Fund’s gains over the reporting period.

How did the Fund perform in the period?

The Fund is an actively managed exchange traded fund that seeks to generate income while also providing exposure to the price return of Bitcoin through one or more U.S.-listed Exchange Listed Products (“ETPs”). The Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of borrowings for investment purposes, in assets providing direct or indirect exposure to Bitcoin. The Fund seeks to achieve its objective by utilizing a synthetic covered call strategy that is designed to provide current income and exposure to the share price returns of one or more Bitcoin ETPs.

 

The Fund uses the Coin Metrics Bitcoin Index as its secondary benchmark index (the "Secondary Index"). The Secondary Index is designed to measure the performance of the top cryptocurrencies by market capitalization.

 

For the period from June 3, 2025 to October 31, 2025 (the “reporting period”), the Fund increased 3.60%, while the Secondary Index increased 3.28%. The Fund had a net asset value of $25.30 per share on June 3, 2025 and ended the reporting period with a net asset value of $22.51 per share on October 31, 2025.

 

The Fund posted positive performance over the reporting period. Easing inflation and the U.S. Federal Reserve’s rate cut in mid-September 2025 created a more supportive environment for cryptocurrencies. Broader institutional adoption of cryptocurrency exposure was aided by structural improvements in the Exchange Traded Product ecosystem in the United States, which reinforced confidence in ETPs and supported price appreciation for their underlying assets. Meanwhile the crypto-related options markets experienced further deepening as activity in Bitcoin-linked products increased, contributing to elevated options premiums and higher income potential for the Fund's covered call strategy. Periods of macro uncertainty later in the reporting period sustained volatility, which also supported covered call related income. In all, a constructive macro environment, continued institutional engagement, and active options activity provided a favorable backdrop for the Fund’s covered call approach, allowing it to participate in Bitcoin’s upside while generating income through option premiums.

The Global X Funds (the “Trust”) is a Delaware statutory trust formed on March 6, 2008. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. As of October 31, 2025, the Trust had one hundred eleven portfolios, one hundred two of which were operational. The financial statements herein and the related notes pertain to the Global X Blockchain & Bitcoin Strategy ETF, Global X Bitcoin Trend Strategy ETF and Global X Bitcoin Covered Call ETF (each a “Fund”, and collectively, the “Funds”). Each Fund has elected non-diversified status under the 1940 Act.

 

The Global X Bitcoin Covered Call ETF commenced operations on June 3, 2025.

 

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Funds:

 

USE OF ESTIMATES — The Funds are investment companies that apply the accounting and reporting guidance issued in Topic 946 by the U.S. Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

 

SECURITY VALUATION — Securities listed on a securities exchange, market or automated quotation system for which quotations are readily available (except for securities traded on the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”)), including securities traded over the counter, are valued at the last quoted sale price on the primary exchange or market (foreign or domestic) on which they are traded (or at approximately 4:00 pm Eastern Standard Time if a security’s primary exchange is normally open at that time), or, if there is no such reported sale, at the most recent mean between the quoted bid and asked prices, which approximates fair value (absent both bid and asked prices on such exchange, the bid price may be used). For securities traded on NASDAQ, the NASDAQ Official Closing Price will be used. The prices for foreign securities are reported in local currency and converted to U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates as of the reporting date. The exchange rates used by the Trust for valuation are captured as of the New York or London close each day.

 

Securities for which market prices are not “readily available” are valued in accordance with fair value procedures (the “Fair Value Procedures”) established by Global X Management Company LLC, the Funds’ investment adviser (the “Adviser”), and approved by the Fund’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”). Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board has designated the Adviser as the “valuation designee” to determine the fair value of securities and other instruments for which no readily available market quotations are available. The

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

fair value procedures are implemented through a fair value committee (the “Committee”) of the Adviser. Some of the more common reasons that may necessitate that a security be valued using the Fair Value Procedures include: the security’s trading has been halted or suspended; the security has been de-listed from its primary trading exchange; the security’s primary trading market is temporarily closed at a time when, under normal conditions, it would be open; the security has not been traded for an extended period of time; the security’s primary pricing source is not able or willing to provide a price; or trading of the security is subject to local government imposed restrictions. In addition, the Funds may fair value a security if an event that may materially affect the value of the Funds’ security that is traded outside of the United States (a “Significant Event”) has occurred between the Fund’s security, the time of the security’s last close and the time that each Fund calculates its net asset value (“NAV”). A Significant Event may relate to a single issuer or to an entire market sector. Events that may be Significant Events include: government actions, natural disasters, armed conflict, acts of terrorism and significant market fluctuations. If the Adviser becomes aware of a Significant Event that has occurred with respect to a security or group of securities after the closing of the exchange or market on which the security or securities principally trade, but before the time at which the Funds calculate their NAVs, it may request that a Committee meeting be called. When a security is valued in accordance with the Fair Value Procedures, the Committee will determine the value after taking into consideration all relevant information reasonably available to the Committee.

 

If available, debt securities are priced based upon valuations provided by independent, third-party pricing agents. Such values generally reflect the last reported sales price if the security is actively traded. The third-party pricing agents may also value debt securities at an evaluated bid price by employing methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-supplied valuations, or other methodologies designed to identify the market value for such securities. Debt obligations with remaining maturities of sixty days or less will be valued at their market value. Prices for most securities held by the Funds are provided daily by recognized independent pricing agents. If a security price cannot be obtained from an independent, third-party pricing agent, the Funds seek to obtain a bid price from at least one independent broker.

 

In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosure under U.S. GAAP, the Funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The objective of a fair value measurement is to determine the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Accordingly, the fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3).

 

16

 

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

October 31, 2025

 

 

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

 

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access at the measurement date;

 

Level 2 – Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices in nonactive markets, quoted prices for similar investments, fair value of investments for which the Funds have the ability to fully redeem tranches at NAV as of the measurement date or within the near term, and short-term investments valued at amortized cost); and

 

Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments and fair value of investments for which the Funds do not have the ability to fully redeem tranches at NAV as of the measurement date or within the near term).

 

Investments are classified within the level of the lowest significant input considered in determining fair value. Investments classified within Level 3 whose fair value measurement considers several inputs may include Level 1 or Level 2 inputs as components of the overall fair value measurement. For details of the investment classification, reference the Consolidated Schedules of Investments.

 

The unobservable inputs used to determine fair value of Level 3 assets may have similar or diverging impacts on valuation. Significant increases and decreases in these inputs in isolation and interrelationships between those inputs could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurement.

 

DUE TO/FROM BROKERS — Due to/from brokers includes cash and collateral balances with the Funds’ clearing brokers or counterparties as of October 31, 2025. The Funds continuously monitors the credit standing of each broker or counterparty with whom they conducts business. In the event a broker or counterparty is unable to fulfill its obligations, the Funds would be subject to counterparty credit risk.

 

REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS — Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held by Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. (“BBH”) or The Bank of New York Mellon (“BNY”), as appropriate, in their roles as Custodian to respective Funds (each, a “Custodian” and together, the “Custodians”), and are designated as being held on each Fund’s behalf by the Custodian under a book-entry system. Each Fund monitors the adequacy of the collateral on a daily basis and can require the seller to provide additional collateral in the event the market value of the securities pledged falls below the carrying value of the repurchase agreement, including accrued interest.

 

17

 

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

October 31, 2025

 

 

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

It is each Fund’s policy to only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other financial institutions which are deemed by the Adviser to be creditworthy. The Funds bear the risk of loss in the event that the counterparty to a repurchase agreement defaults on its obligations and the Funds are prevented from exercising their rights to dispose of the underlying securities received as collateral. For financial statement purposes, the Funds record the securities lending collateral (included in repurchase agreements, at value or restricted cash) as an asset and the obligation to return securities lending collateral as a liability on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

 

Repurchase agreements are entered into by the Funds under Master Repurchase Agreements (“MRA”) which permit the Funds, under certain circumstances, including an event of default (such as bankruptcy or insolvency), to offset payables and/or receivables under the MRA with collateral held and/or posted to the counterparty and create one single net payment due to or from the Funds.

 

FEDERAL INCOME TAXES — It is each Fund’s intention to qualify, or continue to qualify, as a regulated investment company for Federal income tax purposes by complying with the appropriate provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”). Accordingly, no provisions for Federal income taxes have been made in the financial statements except as described below.

 

The Funds evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Funds’ tax returns to determine whether it is “more-likely-than-not” (i.e., greater than 50 percent) that each tax position will be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. The Funds did not record any tax positions in the current period; however, management’s conclusions regarding tax positions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, examination by tax authorities (i.e., the last three tax year ends, as applicable), and on-going analysis of and changes to tax laws and regulations, and interpretations thereof. If a Fund has foreign tax filings that have not been made, the tax years that remain subject to examination may date back to the inception of the Fund.

 

As of and during the reporting period ended October 31, 2025, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as an income tax expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the reporting period, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.

 

SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME — Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date for financial reporting purposes. Costs used in determining realized gains and losses on the sale of investment securities are based on

 

18

 

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

October 31, 2025

 

 

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

specific identification. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis from the settlement date. Amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts is included in interest income.

 

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS AND TRANSLATION — The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at the relevant rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The Funds do not isolate that portion of realized or unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in the foreign exchange rate from fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of the securities. These gains and losses are included in net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Net realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions and translations represent net foreign exchange gains or losses from foreign currency spot contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the amount of the investment income and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or paid.

 

FUTURES CONTRACTS — To the extent consistent with its investment objective and strategies, each Fund may use futures contracts for tactical hedging purposes as well as to enhance the Fund’s returns. Initial margin deposits of cash or securities are made upon entering into futures contracts. The contracts are marked to market daily and the resulting changes in value are accounted for as unrealized gains and losses. Variation margin payments are paid or received, depending upon whether unrealized gains or losses are incurred. When the contract is closed, a Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the amount invested in the contract.

 

Risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility that there will be an imperfect price correlation between the futures and the underlying securities. Second, it is possible that a lack of liquidity for futures contracts could exist in the secondary market, resulting in an inability to close a position prior to its maturity date. Third, a futures contract involves the risk that the Fund could lose more than the original margin deposit required to initiate a futures transaction.

 

Futures contracts shall be valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of the exchange on which they are traded. The daily settlement prices for financial futures are provided by an independent source.

Finally, the risk exists that losses could exceed amounts disclosed on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Refer to each Fund’s Consolidated Schedules of Investments for details regarding open futures contracts as of October 31, 2025.

 

DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS — The Funds distribute their net investment income on a pro rata basis. Any net investment income and net realized capital gains are distributed at least annually. All distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

 

CREATION UNITS — The Funds issue and redeem their shares (“Shares”) on a continuous basis at NAV and only in large blocks of 10,000 Shares, referred to as “Creation Units”. Purchasers of Creation Units (each, an “Authorized Participant”) at NAV must pay a standard creation transaction fee per transaction. The fee is a single charge and will be the same regardless of the number of Creation Units purchased by an Authorized Participant on the same day.

 

An Authorized Participant who holds Creation Units and wishes to redeem at NAV would also pay a standard redemption fee per transaction to the Fund’s Custodian, on the date of such redemption, regardless of the number of Creation Units redeemed that day.

 

If a Creation Unit is purchased or redeemed for cash, an additional variable fee may be charged. The following table discloses Creation Unit breakdown:

 

    Creation
Unit
Shares
  Creation
Fee
  Redemption
Fee
Global X Blockchain & Bitcoin Strategy ETF   10,000   $ 50     $ 50  
Global X Bitcoin Trend Strategy ETF   10,000     50       50  
Global X Bitcoin Covered Call ETF   10,000     250       250  

 

CASH OVERDRAFT CHARGES — Per the terms of an agreement with BBH, if the Global X Bitcoin Trend Strategy ETF has a cash overdraft on a given day, it is assessed an overdraft charge equal to the applicable BBH Base Rate plus 2.00%. Per the terms of an agreement with BNY, if the Global X Blockchain & Bitcoin Strategy ETF and Global X Bitcoin Covered Call ETF have a cash overdraft, they will be charged interest at a rate then charged by BNY to its institutional custody clients in the relevant currency. Cash overdraft charges are included in Custodian Fees Payable on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities and Custodian Fees on the Consolidated Statements of Operations, if applicable.

 

OPTIONS/SWAPTIONS WRITING/PURCHASING — To the extent consistent with their investment policies, certain Funds may either purchase or write options.

 

20

 

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

October 31, 2025

 

 

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

When a Fund purchases an option, the premium paid by it is recorded as an asset of the Fund. When a Fund writes an option, an amount equal to the net premium (the premium less the commission) received by the Fund is included in the liability section of the Fund’s Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as a deferred credit. The amount of this asset or deferred credit will be subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option purchased or written. The current value of the traded option is the last sale price or, in the absence of a sale, the current bid price. If an option purchased by a Fund expires unexercised, the Fund realizes a loss equal to the premium paid. If a Fund enters into a closing sale transaction on an option purchased by it, the Fund will realize a gain if the premium received by the Fund on the closing transaction is more than the premium paid to purchase the option, or a loss if it is less. If an option written by a Fund expires on the stipulated expiration date or if a Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction, it will realize a gain (or loss if the cost of a closing purchase transaction exceeds the net premium received when the option is sold) and the deferred credit related to such option will be eliminated. If an option written by a Fund is exercised, the proceeds of the sale will be increased by the net premium originally received and the Fund will realize a gain or loss.

 

Risks may arise from an imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held and the prices of options relating to the securities purchased or sold and from possible lack of a liquid secondary market for an option. The maximum exposure to loss for any purchased option is limited to the premium initially paid for the option. Written uncovered call options subject a Fund to unlimited risk of loss. Written covered call options limit the upside potential of a security above the strike price. Written put options expose a Fund to risk of loss if the value of the security declines below the strike price.

 

The Global X Bitcoin Covered Call ETF may write call and/or put options that correspond to their respective reference index. By writing a call option, a Fund, in exchange for the premium, foregoes the opportunity for capital appreciation above the strike price should the market price of the underlying security increase. Conversely, by writing a put option, the Fund, in exchange for the premium, accepts the risk of having to purchase a security at a fixed strike price even should the price of the underlying security decrease, exposing the Fund to downside risk in the underlying security.

 

When the written option expires, is terminated or is sold, a Fund will record a gain or loss. The net realized gain or loss on options contracts is reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and the net unrealized gains/(losses) are included as a component of the net change in unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) on options contracts in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

 

SEGMENT REPORTING — The Funds have adopted FASB Update 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) — Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”) during the period, with the intent of improving reportable segment disclosure

 

21

 

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses, allowing financial statement users to better understand the components of a segment’s profit or loss and assess potential future cash flows for each reportable segment and the entity as a whole, thereby enabling better understanding of how an entity’s segments impact overall performance. The Funds’ adoption of ASU 2023-07 impacted financial statement disclosures only and did not affect the Funds’ financial position or results of operations.

 

The Adviser’s Chief Financial Officer acts as each Fund’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) and is responsible for assessing performance and allocating resources with respect to the Funds. The CODM has concluded that each Fund operates as a single operating segment since each Fund has a single investment strategy as disclosed in its prospectus, against which the CODM assesses performance. The financial information provided to and reviewed by the CODM is presented within each Fund’s financial statements.

 

3. RELATED PARTIES AND SERVICE PROVIDER TRANSACTIONS

7. TAX INFORMATION

 

The amount and character of income and capital gain distributions to be paid, if any, are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. As a result, net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such period. These book/tax differences may be temporary or permanent. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, they are charged or credited to undistributed net investment income (loss), accumulated net realized gain (loss) or paid-in capital, as appropriate, in the period that the differences arise.

 

The permanent differences are primarily attributable to redemptions in kind and investment in wholly owned subsidiary.

 

The tax character of dividends and distributions declared for the years or periods ending October 31, 2025 and October 31, 2024 was as follows:

 

Global X Funds   Ordinary

The preceding differences between book and tax cost are primarily due to wash sales.

 

8. CONCENTRATION OF RISKS

 

Bitcoin is a relatively new asset with a limited history. It is subject to unique and substantial risks, and historically has been a highly speculative asset and has experienced significant price volatility. While the Funds will not invest directly in bitcoin, the value of the Funds’ investments in Bitcoin Futures and bitcoin funds is subject to fluctuations in the value of bitcoin, which may be highly volatile. The value of bitcoin is determined by supply and demand in the global market, which consists primarily of transactions of bitcoin on electronic exchanges (“Bitcoin Exchanges”). Pricing on Bitcoin Exchanges and/or other venues could drop precipitously for a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to, regulatory changes, a crisis of confidence, a flaw or operational issue in the bitcoin network (a network on which users may exchange bitcoin directly with one another (the “Bitcoin Network”)), or users preferring competing digital assets and cryptocurrencies. The further

8. CONCENTRATION OF RISKS (continued)

 

development of bitcoin as an asset and the growing acceptance and use of bitcoin in the marketplace are subject to a variety of factors that are difficult to evaluate. Currently, there is relatively limited use of bitcoin in the retail and commercial marketplace, which contributes to price volatility. A lack of expansion, or a contraction in the use of bitcoin, may result in increased volatility in its value. Legal or regulatory changes may negatively impact the operation of the Bitcoin Network or its protocols or restrict the ability to use bitcoin. Additionally, bitcoin transactions are irrevocable, and therefore stolen or incorrectly transferred bitcoin may be irretrievable. The realization of any of these risks could result in a decline in the acceptance of bitcoin and consequently a reduction in the value of bitcoin, Bitcoin Futures, and the Funds. Bitcoin is also subject to the risk of fraud, theft and manipulation, as well as security failures and operational or other problems that impact Bitcoin Exchanges. Unlike the exchanges utilized by traditional assets, such as equity and bond securities, Bitcoin Exchanges are largely unregulated. As a result, individuals or groups may engage in fraud and investors in bitcoin may be more exposed to the risk of theft and market manipulation than when investing in more traditional asset classes. Investors in bitcoin may have little or no recourse should such theft, fraud or manipulation occur and could suffer significant losses, which could ultimately impact bitcoin utilization, the price of bitcoin and the value of Funds’ investments with indirect exposure to bitcoin. Additionally, if one or a coordinated group of miners were to gain control of 51% or more of the Bitcoin Network, they would have the ability to manipulate transactions, halt payments and fraudulently obtain bitcoin. A significant portion of bitcoin is held by a small number of holders, who may have the ability to manipulate the price of bitcoin. In addition, Bitcoin Exchanges are subject to the risk of cybersecurity threats and breach, which has occurred in the past and resulted in the theft and/or loss of digital assets, including bitcoin. A risk also exists with respect to malicious actors or previously unknown vulnerabilities in the Bitcoin Network or its protocols, which may adversely affect the value of bitcoin. Shares of some bitcoin funds in which the Funds invests may trade at a premium or discount to the net asset value of the bitcoin fund itself.

 

Blockchain companies may be adversely impacted by government regulations or economic conditions. Blockchain technology is new and its uses are in many cases untested or unclear. These companies may also have significant exposure to fluctuations in the spot prices of digital assets, particularly to the extent that demand for a company’s hardware or services may increase as the spot price of digital assets increase. Blockchain companies typically face intense competition and potentially rapid product obsolescence. In addition, many Blockchain companies store sensitive consumer information and could be the target of cybersecurity attacks and other types of theft, which could have a negative impact on these companies.Access to a given blockchain may require a specific cryptographic key (in effect a string of characters granting unique access to initiate transactions related to specific digital assets) or set of keys, the theft, loss, or destruction of which, either by accident or as a result of the efforts of a third party, could irrevocably impair a claim to the digital assets stored on that blockchain.

8. CONCENTRATION OF RISKS (continued)

 

Many Blockchain companies currently operate under less regulatory scrutiny than traditional financial services companies and banks, but there is significant risk that regulatory oversight could increase in the future. For example, companies that operate trading platforms and/or exchanges may face heightened regulatory risks associated with their operations. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) has made several public statements indicating that some cryptocurrency exchanges may be operating as unregistered securities exchanges in violation of applicable regulations. In August 2021, the SEC settled charges with Poloniex for selling digital asset securities between 2017 and 2019 without registering as a national securities exchange. Higher levels of regulation could increase costs and adversely impact the current business models of some Blockchain companies and could even result in the outright prohibition of certain business activities. For example, on September 24, 2021, multiple Chinese regulators issued prohibitions on all cryptocurrency transactions and mining. Any further restrictions imposed by governments (including China or the U.S.) on cryptocurrency related activities may adversely impact Blockchain companies, and in turn the Funds. Blockchain companies could be negatively impacted by disruptions in service caused by hardware or software failure, or by interruptions or delays in service by third-party data center hosting facilities and maintenance providers. Blockchain companies involved in digital assets may face slow adoption rates and be subject to higher levels of regulatory scrutiny in the future, which could severely impact their viability. Blockchain companies, especially smaller companies, tend to be more volatile than companies that do not rely heavily on technology. The customers and/or suppliers of Blockchain companies may be concentrated in a particular country, region or industry. Any adverse event affecting one of these countries, regions or industries could have a negative impact on Blockchain companies.

 

Cryptocurrency (notably, bitcoin), often referred to as “virtual currency” or “digital currency,” operates as a decentralized, peer-to-peer financial exchange and value storage that is used like money. The Funds will have exposure to bitcoin, indirectly through investment in Bitcoin Futures, and individual Blockchain Companies held by the Funds may have exposure to cryptocurrencies, including cryptocurrencies other than bitcoin. Cryptocurrencies operate without central authority or banks and are not backed by any government. Cryptocurrencies may experience very high volatility, and related investment vehicles that invest in cryptocurrencies may be affected by such volatility. Cryptocurrency is not legal tender. Federal, state or foreign governments may restrict the use and exchange of cryptocurrency, and regulation in the U.S. is still developing. Some cryptocurrency have stopped operating and have permanently shut down due to fraud, technical glitches, hackers or malware. Cryptocurrency exchanges are new, largely unregulated, and may be more exposed to fraud. In November 2022, FTX, a Bahamas-based crypto asset exchange, collapsed due to a liquidity crisis of the company’s token, FTT, thus leading FTX to file for bankruptcy. An investigation into the collapse uncovered unauthorized movements and use of client assets to a sister company of FTX, Alameda Research, a crypto asset hedge fund. The collapse of FTX resulted in a ripple effect across

8. CONCENTRATION OF RISKS (continued)

 

the crypto asset industry, with the price of bitcoin falling to the lowest levels in calendar year 2022. Further, some crypto trading platforms may be operating out of compliance with regulation and are, or may become, subject to enforcement actions by regulatory authorities. In June 2023, the SEC charged the owners and operators of Binance, the largest crypto asset exchange in the world, with operating unregistered exchanges, broker-dealers, and clearing agencies; misrepresenting trading controls and oversight of its platform; and the unregistered offer and sale of securities. In November 2023, the SEC similarly charged Payward Inc. and Payward Ventures Inc., together known as Kraken, with operating an unregistered securities exchange, broker, dealer, and clearing agency.

 

A futures contract may generally be described as an agreement for the future sale by one party and the purchase by another of a specified security or instrument at a specified price and time. The risks of futures contracts include but are not limited to: (1) the Adviser’s ability to predict movements in the prices of individual currencies or securities, fluctuations in markets and movements in interest rates; (2) an imperfect or no correlation between the changes in market value of the currencies or securities and the prices of futures contracts; and (3) there being no guarantee that an active market will exist for the contracts at any particular time. Trading in the cash bitcoin market remains difficult as compared to more traditional cash markets, and in particular, short selling bitcoin remains challenging and costly.As a result of these features of the bitcoin cash market, market makers and arbitrageurs may not be as willing to participate in the Bitcoin Futures market as they are in other futures markets. Each of these factors may increase the likelihood that the price of Bitcoin Futures will be volatile and/or will deviate from the price of bitcoin. Bitcoin Futures may experience significant price volatility. Exchange-specified collateral for Bitcoin Futures is substantially higher than for most other futures contracts, and collateral may be set as a percentage of the value of the contract, which means that collateral requirements for long positions can increase if the price of the contract rises. In addition, futures commission merchants (“FCMs”) may require collateral beyond the exchange’s minimum requirement. FCMs may also restrict trading activity in Bitcoin Futures by imposing position limits, prohibiting short selling of Bitcoin Futures or prohibiting trades where the executing broker places a trade on behalf of another broker (so-called “give-up transactions”). Although the Funds will only take long positions in Bitcoin Futures, restrictions on the ability of certain market participants to take short Bitcoin Futures positions may ultimately constrain the Funds’ ability to take long positions in Bitcoin Futures or may impact the price at which the Funds are able to take such positions. Bitcoin Futures are subject to daily limits that may impede a market participant’s ability to exit a position during a period of high volatility.

 

The Funds may invest in securities of foreign issuers in various countries. These investments may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investments in the United States as a result of, among other factors, the possibility of future political and economic developments, the level of governmental supervision and regulation of securities markets in the respective countries.

8. CONCENTRATION OF RISKS (continued)

 

The securities markets of emerging market countries are less liquid, subject to greater price volatility, and have a smaller market capitalization than those of U.S. securities markets. In certain countries, there may be fewer publicly traded securities and the market may be dominated by a few issuers or sectors. Issuers and securities markets in such countries are not subject to as extensive and frequent accounting, financial and other reporting requirements or as comprehensive government regulations as are issuers and securities markets in the United States. In particular, the assets and profits appearing on the financial statements of emerging market country issuers may not reflect their financial position or results of operations in the same manner as financial statements for U.S. issuers. Substantially less information may be publicly available about emerging country issuers than is available about issuers in the United States.

 

The Global X Bitcoin Trend Strategy ETF invests in the constituents of the CoinDesk Bitcoin Trend Indicator Futures Index (the “Underlying Index”) and other securities that the Adviser determines have economic characteristics that are substantially identical to the economic characteristics of the constituents that comprise the Underlying Index, such as U.S. listed Bitcoin Futures ETFs. In addition, in seeking to track the Underlying Index, the Fund may invest in debt securities that are not included in the Underlying Index, cash and cash equivalents or money market instruments, such as repurchase agreements and money market funds.

 

The Underlying Index systematically and dynamically allocates between (i) U.S. exchange-traded bitcoin futures contracts, and (ii) the Global X 1-3 Month T-Bill ETF, a passively managed ETF and affiliate of the Fund. The Underlying Index allocates between these two exposures based on the value of the Bitcoin Trend Indicator (the “Signal”), a dynamic quantitative signal developed and administrated by CoinDesk Indices, Inc., which aims to detect the presence, direction, and strength of the price trend in bitcoin.

 

The Global X Blockchain & Bitcoin Strategy ETF and Global X Bitcoin Covered Call ETF are actively managed.

 

Certain Funds may invest in derivative instruments, such as options and futures, which expose the Funds to risks associated with investments in derivative instruments. Some derivatives are more sensitive to interest rate changes and market price fluctuations than other securities. Adverse price movements in a derivative instrument can result in a loss substantially greater than a Fund’s initial investment in that instrument. By writing (selling) call options in return for the receipt of premiums, a Fund will incur a loss when the value of a reference asset increases above the exercise price of such options, less any premiums received from the written calls. The premiums received from the options may not be sufficient to offset any losses sustained from the volatility of the underlying asset over time.

 

The Funds may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which they invest. Such taxes are generally based on either income or gains earned or repatriated. Each Fund accrues and

 

33

applies such taxes to net investment income, net realized gains and net unrealized gains as income and/or capital gains are earned.

 

Please refer to each Fund’s prospectus and statement of additional information for a more complete description of risks.

 

9. REVERSE SHARE SPLIT

 

The Board approved a reverse share split of one to four (1:4) of the issued and outstanding shares of the Global X Blockchain & Bitcoin Strategy ETF (the “Reverse Share Split”). The Reverse Share Split was completed after the close of business on December 19, 2022. The effect of this transaction for the Fund was to divide the number of outstanding shares of the Fund by four, resulting in a corresponding increase in the NAV per Share. The capital share activity presented on the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Net Assets and the per share data in the Consolidated Financial Highlights for the period then ended, have been given retroactive effect to reflect this reverse share split. There were no changes in net assets, results of operations or total return as a result of this transaction.

 

10. CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATION

 

The Funds enter into contracts in the normal course of business that contain a variety of indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these contracts is unknown; however, the Funds have not had prior gains or losses pursuant to these contracts. Management has reviewed the Funds’ existing contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

Pursuant to the Trust’s organizational documents, the Trustees of the Trust (the “Trustees”) and the Trust’s officers are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of the performance of their duties.

 

11. LOANS OF PORTFOLIO SECURITIES

 

On or about August 15, 2025, BBH was replaced by Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Corporation (“MUTB”) as the securities lending agent for the Global X Bitcoin Trend Strategy ETF.

 

Prior to August 15, 2025, BBH served as the Securities Lending Agent for the Global X Bitcoin Trend Strategy ETF. BNY and MUTB serve as the securities lending agents for the Trust.

 

Each Fund may lend portfolio securities having a market value up to one-third of its total assets. Security loans made pursuant to securities lending agreements with MUTB and BNY are initially required to be secured by collateral equal to at least 102% of the value of domestic equity securities and American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) and 105% of the

 

34

 

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

11. LOANS OF PORTFOLIO SECURITIES (continued)

 

value of foreign equity securities (other than ADRs). Such collateral received in connection with these loans will be cash and can be invested in repurchase agreements, short-term investments or U.S. Treasury obligations, and is recognized in the Consolidated Schedules of Investments and Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The obligation to return securities lending collateral is also recognized as a liability in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. It is each Fund’s policy to obtain additional collateral from or return excess collateral to the borrower by the end of the next business day, following the valuation date of the securities loaned. Therefore, the value of the collateral held may be temporarily less than the value of the securities on loan.

 

Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements held in the Funds are held by BNY, as appropriate, and are designated as being held on the Fund’s behalf under a book-entry system. The Funds monitor the adequacy of the collateral on a daily basis and can require the seller to provide additional collateral in the event the market value of the securities pledged falls below the carrying value of the repurchase agreement, including accrued interest. It is each Fund’s policy to only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other financial institutions which are deemed by the Adviser to be creditworthy. The Funds bear the risk of loss in the event the other party to a repurchase agreement defaults on its obligations and the Fund are prevented from exercising their rights to dispose of the underlying securities received as collateral and the risk of a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period. For financial statement purposes, the Funds record the securities lending collateral (including in repurchase agreements, at value or restricted cash) as an asset and the obligation to return securities lending collateral as a liability on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

 

Cash collateral received in connection with securities lending is invested in repurchase agreements and short-term investments by the lending agent. The Funds do not have effective control of the non-cash collateral and therefore it is not disclosed in each Fund’s Consolidated Schedule of Investments.

 

Securities lending transactions are entered into by the Funds under the Securities Lending Agreement, which permits a Fund, under certain circumstances such as an event of default, to offset amounts payable by the Fund to the same counterparty against amounts receivable from the counterparty to create a net payment due to or from the Fund.

 

Income from securities lending is determined by the amount of interest earned on collateral, net of any rebate and securities lending agent fees.

 

12. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09 (“ASU 2023-09”), Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which amends quantitative and qualitative income tax disclosure requirements in order to increase

disclosure consistency, bifurcate income tax information by jurisdiction and remove information that is no longer beneficial. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and early adoption is permitted. Fund Management is evaluating the impacts of these changes on the Funds’ financial statements.

 

13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

The Funds have been evaluated by management regarding the need for additional disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events. Based on this evaluation, no additional adjustments were required to the financial statements.

Basis for Opinions

 

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (Concluded)

 

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2025 by correspondence with the custodians and brokers; when a reply was not received from a broker, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
