How did the Fund perform last year and what affected its performance?

The TCW AAA CLO ETF funded on November 15, 2024.  In the period since inception, the ETF’s shorter-than-index spread duration has contributed to relative performance, insulating returns and helping to preserve capital during periods of volatility.   Meanwhile, the allocation to AA CLOs and European CLOs have helped the ETF carry an overall yield advantage relative to the Index, which further contributed to relative performance over the period.

Annualized. The Fund has changed its fiscal year-end from March 31 to October 31. This period represents the seven-month period from April 1, 2025 to October 31, 2025.

How did the Fund perform last year and what affected its performance?

The TCW Core Plus Bond ETF (FIXT) transitioned from the predecessor mutual fund, the TCW MetWest Intermediate Bond Fund on June 16, 2025. Over the period since the transition, positioning has been adjusted to meet the allocation targets of the new strategy, though overall investment themes remain similar to the predecessor fund. Outperformance over the period was driven by duration and yield curve positioning, with the ETF’s duration position and emphasis on shorter tenors of the curve rewarded as short and intermediate yields fell. Additionally, relative returns benefited from the overweight in securitized products, particularly agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS) as the sector bested Treasuries by 165 bps on a duration-adjusted basis for the period. Meanwhile, with corporate credit posting over 147 bps of excess returns versus comparable Treasuries, the sustained underweight to the sector weighed on relative returns, though the volatility in early April provided opportunity to capitalize on the liquidity afforded by this more defensive positioning. During that time, the portfolio was aggressive in adding exposure at better levels of spread and yield that subsequently benefited returns as markets recovered and spreads retraced the widening.

Annualized. The Fund has changed its fiscal year-end from March 31 to October 31. This period represents the seven-month period from April 1, 2025 to October 31, 2025.

How did the Fund perform last year and what affected its performance?

Outperformance was driven by the overweight duration position as rates fell over the 1-year period, while the emphasis on shorter yields provided a further boost as the yield curve steepened. Additionally, issue selection and selective repositioning across corporate credit bolstered returns.  With the substantial market volatility in early April, the ETF took the opportunity to capitalize on attractive pricing and spread entry points among corporate credit.  Additions that were made during this period, including non-cyclicals and large U.S. banks, significantly added to performance as spreads remediated and the differential between large U.S. banks and the broader investment grade corporate universe narrowed. Notwithstanding these additions, the ETFs remained underweight industrials and financials overall, which helped insulate returns heading into the April volatility, but have been a headwind since as yield spreads have tightened.  Finally, the ETF’s small position in commercial MBS interest only bonds represented a steady source of income over the trailing 1-year period, contributing to relative performance.

How did the Fund perform last year and what affected its performance?

Strong performance over the period was supported by allocations across securitized sectors, particularly non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities (MBS) with both legacy and newer vintage deals offering steady income and attractive yield premiums. Within agency MBS, the ETF’s emphasis on lower and middle coupons within the 30-Year coupon stack proved advantageous as heightened prepayment concerns in recent months have negatively impacted premium coupon performance in favor of the total return potential of discount-priced coupons. Non-agency commercial MBS (CMBS) securities remained resilient, especially higher-quality single asset single borrower deals backed by trophy and class-A properties which have performed well year-over-year in the broader risk-on backdrop and continued sponsorship of performing properties. Elsewhere in securitized assets, the allocation to asset-backed securities was also additive, with notable contributions from subordinate collateralized loan obligations (CLOs) and single-family rentals. Among corporates, investments in both investment-grade and high-yield names bolstered returns. With the substantial market volatility in early April, the ETF took the opportunity to capitalize on attractive pricing and spread entry points among corporate credit. Additions that were made during this period, including non-cyclicals and large U.S. banks, significantly added to performance as spreads remediated and the differential between large U.S. banks and the broader investment grade corporate universe narrowed. Finally, performance benefited from the positive duration profile and curve-steepening bias as yields fell over the period and the curve steepened.

How did the Fund perform last year and what affected its performance?

Over the trailing 1-year period, relative underperformance stemmed from the off-Index allocation to bank loans given two defaults over the period, with one of those issuer defaults also affecting a bond held in the consumer non-cyclical healthcare sector. Communication was also impacted by softening demand and volatile M&A news, which resulted in an issue selection headwind. In particular, holdings in cable satellite weighed on returns as they were less widely held in the Bloomberg U.S. High Yield Corporate Index (Index). Meanwhile, the sharp widening in spreads that occurred in April’s selloff provided the ability to capitalize on attractive spread entry points among energy and consumer cyclical issuers, which helped offset some of the drag over the period as spreads remediated. Furthermore, the positioning in capital goods, electric utilities, and technology supported relative returns, with additional contributions coming from favorable credit selection across the period. Finally, the Fund remained underweight basic industry given the view that cyclical sectors are more sensitive to volatility, which helped insulate returns from the spread widening that occurred early in 2025.

How did the Fund perform last year and what affected its performance?

Relative underperformance for the period was driven by underweight positioning in emerging markets (EM) and idiosyncratic exposure in high yield and bank loans. On the other hand, an off-index allocation to investment grade credit benefited relative performance for the period. The market sell-off in April 2025 provided an opportunity to capitalize on wider spreads across a diversified investment universe, reducing investment grade credit and CLO exposure and adding developed market high yield credit and emerging market debt.

Annualized. The Fund has changed its fiscal year-end from March 31 to October 31. This period represents the seven-month period from April 1, 2025 to October 31, 2025.

How did the Fund perform last year and what affected its performance?

Positive relative returns for the trailing 1-year period were driven by the positioning in software services and from holdings with strong recurring revenue that outpaced those in the Morningstar LSTA Leveraged Loan Index (Index). The underweight position to materials was also a tailwind as the sector continues to lag the Index, with additional contributions coming from the favorable security selection to top-performing loans. Also, issue selection in capital goods, consumer, and commercial services was beneficial. Despite loans held in the food & beverage sector positively impacting relative returns, the overweight to the sector was a headwind as it is one of the bottom performers in the Index. Similarly, the continued underweight to automobiles insulated returns from the broad weakness over the period, but a loan held in that space defaulted and slightly mitigated those gains. Furthermore, a loan held in the healthcare sector entered a restructuring process which weighed on relative returns. Finally, loan selection in media entertainment and consumer discretionary resulted in a drag as loans held underperformed those in the Index.

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION

TCW ETF Trust (formerly Engine No. 1 ETF) (the “Trust”), a Delaware statutory trust organized on October 26, 2020, is an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Trust is authorized to issue multiple series of portfolios. As of October 31, 2025, the Trust consisted of twelve operating investment portfolios, seven of which are presented herein: TCW AAA CLO ETF, TCW Core Plus Bond ETF, TCW Corporate Bond ETF, TCW Flexible Income ETF, TCW High Yield Bond ETF, TCW Multisector Credit Income ETF, and TCW Senior Loan ETF (each a “Fund” and collective, the “Funds”).

TCW Investment Management Company LLC (the “Adviser”) is the investment adviser to and an affiliate of the Funds and is registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. Each Fund has its own investment objective and strategies. The following is a brief description of the investment objectives and principal investment strategies for the Funds that are covered in this report:

Investment Objectives and Principal Investment Strategies

 

ETF Fund   Strategies
Non-Diversified Fund    
TCW AAA CLO ETF   Seeks to provide capital preservation and current income by investing at least 80% of the value of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) that are, at the time of purchase, rated AAA (or an equivalent rating) by at least one of the major rating agencies or, if unrated, determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. The Fund has no restrictions on investment maturity.
Diversified Fund    
TCW Core Plus Bond ETF   Seeks to maximize long-term total return by investing at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in fixed income securities and instruments that generate income. The Fund’s investments include securities of any maturity, however, under normal market conditions, the Fund’s average portfolio duration varies within one and one-half (1.5) years (plus or minus) of the portfolio duration of the securities comprising the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Index.
TCW Corporate Bond ETF   Seeks to maximize long-term total return, by investing at least 80% of value of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in a diversified portfolio of corporate bonds of varying maturities issued by U.S. and foreign corporations, including those in developed market and emerging market countries. There is no limit on the weighted average maturity of the Fund’s portfolio, and the Fund’s average portfolio duration is expected, but not required, to vary from three to nine years.

TCW ETF Trust

 

October 31, 2025

 

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION (Continued)

 

TCW Flexible Income ETF   Seeks a high level of current income with a secondary objective of long-term capital appreciation by utilizing a flexible investment approach that allocates investments across a range of global investment opportunities related to credit, currencies and interest rates. The Fund will invest at least 80% of the value of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in fixed income securities and instruments that generate income. There is no limit on the weighted average maturity of the Fund’s portfolio, however, under normal circumstances, the Fund’s average portfolio duration is expected to vary from zero to eight years.
TCW High Yield Bond ETF   Seeks to maximize income and achieve above average total return consistent with reasonable risk over a full market cycle by investing at least 80% of the value of its net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, in high yield/below investment grade bonds (commonly known as “junk bonds”). The Fund may invest up to 20% of its net assets in equity securities (including common stock and convertible and non-convertible preferred stocks).
TCW Multisector Credit Income ETF   Seeks long-term income by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the value of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in a multisector portfolio of fixed income securities and instruments. The Fund will generally allocate its assets among several fixed income sectors, including high yield securities; bank loans; and foreign securities, principally emerging market securities. The Fund is not required to gain exposure to any particular investment sector and sector exposures are expected to vary over time. The Fund does not have a duration target, however, under normal circumstances, the Fund’s average portfolio duration varies from zero to eight years.
TCW Senior Loan ETF   Seeks current income with a secondary objective of long-term capital appreciation, by investing at least 80% of the value its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in senior secured floating rate investments and in investments that are the economic equivalent of senior secured floating rate loans. The Fund’s portfolio securities may have any duration or maturity.

There can be no assurance that the Funds will achieve their respective investment objectives.

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

These financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amount of increase and

TCW ETF Trust

 

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

 

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

decrease in net assets from operations during the fiscal period. Actual amounts could differ from these estimates. The Funds are investment companies and follow the investment company accounting standards and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, “Financial Services — Investment Companies”. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal laws are also sources of authoritative guidance for SEC registrants. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Funds:

Principles of Accounting: The Funds use the accrual method of accounting for financial reporting purposes.

Net Asset Value: The net asset value (“NAV”) of each Fund’s shares is calculated each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), generally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time. NAV per share is computed by dividing the net assets by the number of each Fund’s shares outstanding.

Security Valuation: Securities listed or traded on the NYSE and other stock exchanges were valued at the latest sale price on the exchange. Securities traded on the NASDAQ stock market (“NASDAQ”) were valued during the period using official closing prices as reported by NASDAQ, which may not have been the last sale price. Investments in open-end mutual funds including money market funds were valued based on the NAV per share as reported by the investment companies. All other securities for which over-the-counter (“OTC”) market quotations were readily available, including short-term securities, swap agreements and forward currency exchange contracts, were valued with prices furnished by independent pricing services or by broker-dealers.

Shares Not Listed; No Market for Shares. The TCW Private Asset Income Fund has been organized as a closed-end management investment company. Closed-end funds differ from open-end management investment companies (commonly known as mutual funds) because investors in a closed-end fund do not have the right to redeem their shares on a daily basis. Unlike most closed-end funds, which typically list their shares on a securities exchange, the TCW Private Asset Income Fund does not currently intend to list the Shares for trading on any securities exchange, and the TCW Private Asset Income Fund does not expect any secondary market to develop for the Shares in the foreseeable future. Therefore, an investment in the TCW Private Asset Income Fund, unlike an investment in a typical closed-end fund, is not a liquid investment.

Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”, and each member thereof, a “Trustee”) has designated the Adviser as the “valuation designee” with respect to the fair valuation of the Funds’ portfolio securities, subject to oversight by and periodic reporting to the Board. Fair valued securities are those for which market quotations were not readily available, including in circumstances under which it was determined by the Adviser that prices received were not reflective of their market values.

Fair value is defined as the price that a Fund would receive upon selling an investment in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment. In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the Fund disclose investments in their financial statements in a three-tier hierarchy. This hierarchy is utilized to establish classification of fair value measurements based on

inputs. Inputs that go into fair value measurement refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

 

Level 1 —    quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.
Level 2 —    other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3 —    significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment’s assigned Level within the hierarchy. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those investments and the determination of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and consideration of factors specific to each security.

The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized as Level 3.

In periods of market dislocation, the observability of prices and inputs may be reduced for many instruments. This condition, as well as changes related to liquidity of investments, could cause a security to be reclassified between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Fair Value Measurements: Descriptions of the valuation techniques applied to the Funds’ major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:

Asset-backed securities (“ABS”) and mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”). The fair value of ABS and MBS is estimated based on pricing models that consider the estimated cash flows of each debt tranche of the issuer, establish a benchmark yield, and develop an estimated tranche-specific spread to the benchmark yield based on the unique attributes of the tranche including, but not limited to, the prepayment speed assumptions and attributes of the collateral. To the extent the inputs are observable and timely, the values would be categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy; otherwise, they would be categorized as Level 3.

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Bank loans. The fair value of bank loans is estimated using recently executed transactions, market price quotations, credit/market events, and cross-asset pricing. Inputs are generally observable and are obtained from independent sources. Bank loans are generally categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Corporate bonds. The fair value of corporate bonds is estimated using recently executed transactions, market price quotations (where observable), bond spreads, or credit default swap spreads adjusted for any basis difference between cash and derivative instruments. Corporate bonds are generally categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy; in instances where prices, spreads, or any of the other aforementioned key inputs are unobservable, they are categorized as Level 3 of the hierarchy.

Foreign currency contracts. The fair values of foreign currency contracts are derived from indices, reference rates, and other inputs or a combination of these factors. To the extent that these factors can be observed, foreign currency contracts are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Futures contracts. Futures contracts are generally valued at the settlement price established at the close of business each day by the exchange on which they are traded. They are categorized as Level 1.To the extent that valuation adjustments are observable and timely, the fair values of futures contracts would be categorized as Level 2; otherwise the fair values would be categorized as Level 3.

Government and agency securities. Government and agency securities are normally valued using a model that incorporates market observable data such as reported sales of similar securities, broker quotes, yields, bids, offers, quoted market prices, and reference data. Accordingly, government and agency securities are normally categorized as Level 1 or 2 of the fair value hierarchy depending on the liquidity and transparency of the market.

Money market funds. Money market funds are open-end mutual funds that invest in short-term debt securities. To the extent that these funds are valued based upon the reported NAV, they are categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Municipal bonds. Municipal bonds are fair valued based on pricing models that take into account, among other factors, information received from market makers and broker-dealers, current trades, bid-wanted lists, offerings, market movements, the callability of the bond, state of issuance, benchmark yield curves, and bond insurance. To the extent that these inputs are observable and timely, the fair values of municipal bonds are categorized as Level 2; otherwise, the fair values are categorized as Level 3.

Restricted securities. Restricted securities, including illiquid Rule 144A securities, issued by non-public entities are categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because they trade infrequently, and therefore the inputs are unobservable. Any other restricted securities valued similar to publicly traded securities may be categorized as Level 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy depending on whether a discount is applied and significant to the fair value.

Short-term investments. Short-term investments are valued using market price quotations, and are categorized as Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Warrants. Warrants are generally valued based on quoted prices from the applicable exchange. To the extent these securities are actively traded, and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are generally categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Security Transactions and Related Investment Income: Throughout the reporting period, security transactions are accounted for one business day following the trade date. For financial reporting purposes, security transactions are accounted for on trade date on the last business day of the reporting period. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis and includes, where applicable, the amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Dividend income, net of any applicable foreign withholding taxes, is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the asset received. Large, non-recurring dividends recognized by a Fund, if any, are presented separately on the Statement of Operations as “Special Dividends” and the impact of these dividends is presented in the Financial Highlights. Gains or losses realized on sales of securities are determined using the specific identification method by comparing the identified cost of the security lot sold with the net sales proceeds.

Dividends and Distributions: Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. The Funds intend to declare and make distributions of taxable net investment income quarterly and net capital gains annually. Distributions from net realized gains for book purposes may include short-term capital gains, which are included as ordinary income for tax purposes. Therefore, no provision for federal income tax should be required.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of the accompanying financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Foreign Currency Translation: The books and records of each Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars as follows: (1) foreign currency denominated securities, and other assets and liabilities stated in foreign currencies are translated using the daily spot rate; and (2) purchases, sales, income and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The resultant exchange gains and losses are included in net realized or net unrealized

gain (loss) in the Statement of Operations. Pursuant to U.S. federal income tax regulations, certain foreign exchange gains and losses included in realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in, or are a reduction of, ordinary income for federal income tax purposes.

Foreign Taxes: The Funds may be subject to withholding taxes on income and capital gains imposed by certain countries in which they invest. The withholding tax on income is netted against the income accrued or received. Any reclaimable taxes are recorded as income. The withholding tax on realized or unrealized gain is recorded as a liability.

Derivative Instruments: Derivatives are financial instruments which are valued based on the values of one or more indicators, such as a security, asset, currency, interest rate, or index. Derivative transactions can create investment leverage and may be highly volatile. A derivative contract may result in a mark-to-market loss if the value of the contract decreases due to an unfavorable change in the market rates or values of the underlying instrument. It is possible that a derivative transaction will result in a loss greater than the principal amount invested. The Funds may not be able to close out a derivative transaction at a favorable time or price.

For the period ended October 31, 2025, each Fund had derivatives and transactions in derivatives, grouped in the following risk categories:

Counterparty Credit Risk: Derivative contracts may be exposed to counterparty credit risk. Losses can occur if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.

The Funds’ risk of loss from counterparty credit risk on OTC derivatives is generally limited to the aggregate unrealized gain netted against any collateral held by the Funds.

With exchange-traded futures and centrally cleared swaps, there is less counterparty credit risk to the Funds since the exchange or clearinghouse, as counterparty to such instruments, guarantees against a possible default. The clearinghouse stands between the buyer and the seller of the contract; therefore, the credit risk is limited to failure of the clearinghouse. While offset rights may exist under applicable law, the Funds do not have a contractual right of offset against a clearing broker or clearinghouse in the event of a default (including the bankruptcy or insolvency) of the clearing broker or clearinghouse. Additionally, credit risk exists in exchange-traded futures and centrally cleared swaps with respect to initial and variation margin that is held in a clearing broker’s customer accounts. While clearing brokers are required to segregate customer margin from their own assets, in the event that a clearing broker becomes insolvent or goes into bankruptcy and at that time there is a shortfall in the aggregate amount of margin held by the clearing broker for all its clients, typically the shortfall would be allocated on a pro rata basis across all the clearing broker’s customers, potentially resulting in losses to the Funds.

For OTC derivatives, the Funds mitigate their counterparty risk by entering into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement (“ISDA Master Agreement”) or similar agreement with each counterparty. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between the Funds and a counterparty that governs OTC derivatives and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. Under an ISDA Master Agreement, the Funds may, under certain circumstances, offset with the counterparty certain derivative financial instruments’ payables and/or receivables with collateral held and/or posted and create one single net payment. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of default including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty. However, bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against the right of offset in bankruptcy, insolvency or other events. In addition, certain ISDA Master Agreements allow counterparties to OTC derivatives to terminate

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

derivative contracts prior to maturity in the event a Fund’s net assets declines by a stated percentage or a Fund fails to meet the terms of its ISDA Master Agreements, which would cause the Fund to accelerate payment of any net liability owed to the counterparty.

Collateral Requirements: For derivatives traded under an ISDA Master Agreement, the collateral requirements are typically calculated by netting the mark-to-market amount for each transaction under such agreement and comparing that amount to the value of any collateral pledged or received by the Fund.

Cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of a Fund is reported separately on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Non-cash collateral pledged by a Fund, if any, is noted in the Schedule of Investments. Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to a party has to exceed a minimum transfer amount threshold, typically $250,000 or $500,000, before a transfer is required, which is determined at the close of each business day and the collateral is transferred on the next business day. To the extent amounts due to a Fund from its counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Fund bears the risk of loss from counterparty non-performance. The Funds attempt to mitigate counterparty risk by entering into agreements only with counterparties that the Adviser believes have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds do not offset derivative assets and derivative liabilities that are subject to netting arrangements in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Funds have implemented the disclosure requirements pursuant to ASC 210 Balance Sheet (“ASC 210”), Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities that requires disclosures to make financial statements that are prepared under GAAP more comparable to those prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards.

Master Agreements and Netting Arrangements. Certain Funds are parties to various agreements, including but not limited to International Swaps and Derivatives Association Agreements and related Credit Support Annex, Master Repurchase Agreements, and Master Securities Forward Transactions Agreements (collectively “Master Agreements”), which govern the terms of certain transactions with select counterparties. These Master Agreements generally include provisions for general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral, and certain events of default or termination. These Master Agreements also include provisions for netting arrangements that help reduce credit and counterparty risk associated with relevant transactions (“netting arrangements”). The netting arrangements are generally tied to credit -related events that, if triggered, would cause an event of default or termination giving a Fund or counterparty the right to terminate early and cause settlement, on a net basis, of all transactions under the applicable Master Agreement. In the event of an early termination as a result of an event of default under the Master Agreement, the total value exposure of all transactions will be offset against collateral exchanged to date, which would result in a net receivable or payable that would be due from or to the counterparty. However, bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against the right of offset in the event of a bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty. Credit related events include, but are not limited to, bankruptcy, failure to make timely payments, restructuring, obligation acceleration, obligation default, a material decline in net assets, decline in credit rating or repudiation/ moratorium. Any election made by a counterparty to early terminate the transactions under a Master Agreement could have a material adverse impact on a Fund’s financial statements. A

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Fund’s overall exposure to credit risk subject to netting arrangements can change substantially within a short period, as it is affected by each transaction subject to the arrangement.

Master Agreements can also help limit counterparty risk by specifying collateral posting arrangements at pre-arranged exposure levels. Under the Master Agreements, collateral is routinely transferred if the total net exposure to certain transactions under the relevant Master Agreement with a counterparty in a given Fund exceeds a specified threshold, net of collateral already in place, typically $250,000 or $500,000 depending on the counterparty and the type of Master Agreement. Collateral under the Master Agreements is usually in the form of cash or U.S. Treasury Bills but could include other types of securities. If permitted under the Master Agreement, certain funds may rehypothecate cash collateral received from a counterparty. The value of all derivative transactions outstanding under a Master Agreement is calculated daily to determine the amount of collateral to be received or pledged by the counterparty. Posting of collateral for OTC derivative transactions are covered under tri-party collateral agreements between the Fund, the Fund’s custodian, and each counterparty. Collateral for centrally cleared derivatives transactions are posted with the applicable derivatives clearing organization.

The following table presents the Fund’s OTC derivative assets by counterparty net of amounts available for offset under an ISDA Master Agreement or similar agreement and net of the related collateral received or pledged by the Fund as of October 31, 2025:

NOTE 3 — PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS

Mortgage-Backed and Other Asset-Backed Securities: The Funds may invest in MBS, which represent interests in pools of mortgages in which payments of both principal and interest on the securities are generally made monthly, in effect “passing through” monthly payments made by borrowers on the residential or commercial mortgage loans which underlie the securities (net of any fees paid to the issuer or guarantor of the securities). Mortgage pass-through securities differ from other forms of debt securities, which normally provide for periodic payment of interest in fixed amounts with principal payments at maturity or specified call dates. The Funds may also invest in Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (“CMOs”). CMOs are debt obligations collateralized by residential or commercial mortgage loans or residential or commercial mortgage pass-through securities. Interest and principal are generally paid monthly. CMOs may be collateralized by whole mortgage loans or private mortgage pass-through securities but are more typically collateralized by portfolios of mortgage pass-through securities guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae), Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) or Federal National Mortgage Corporation (Fannie Mae). The issuer of a series of CMOs may elect to be treated for tax purposes as a Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit. CMOs are structured into multiple classes, each bearing a different stated maturity. Monthly payment of principal received from the pool of underlying mortgages, including prepayments, is first returned to investors holding the shortest maturity class. Investors holding the longer maturity classes usually receive principal only after shorter classes have been retired. An investor may be partially protected against a sooner than desired return of principal because of the sequential payments. The Funds may invest in stripped MBS. Stripped MBS are usually structured with two classes that receive different proportions of the interest and principal distributions on a pool of mortgage assets. In certain cases, one class will receive all of the interest (the interest only or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the

principal (the principal only or “PO” class). The yield to maturity on IOs is sensitive to the rate of principal repayments (including prepayments) on the related underlying mortgage assets, and principal payments may have a material effect on yield to maturity. If the underlying mortgage assets experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, a Fund may not fully recoup its initial investment in IOs. Mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities held by the Fund at October 31, 2025 are listed in the Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

Inflation-Indexed Bonds: The Funds may invest in inflation-indexed bonds, which are fixed income securities whose principal value or coupon is periodically adjusted according to the rate of inflation. Any increase or decrease in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income.

Inflation-indexed securities issued by the U.S. Treasury have maturities of five, ten, twenty, or thirty years, although it is possible that securities with other maturities will be issued in the future. The U.S.

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

 

NOTE 3 — PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS (Continued)

 

Treasury securities pay interest on a semi-annual basis, equal to a fixed percentage of the inflation-adjusted principal amount.

If the periodic adjustment rate measuring inflation falls, the principal value of inflation-indexed bonds will be adjusted downward, and consequently the interest payable on these securities (calculated with respect to a smaller principal amount) will be reduced. Repayment of the original bond principal upon maturity (as adjusted for inflation) is guaranteed in the case of U.S. Treasury inflation-indexed bonds, even during a period of deflation. However, the current market value of the bonds is not guaranteed, and will fluctuate. The Funds may also invest in other inflation-related bonds which may or may not provide a similar guarantee. If a guarantee of principal is not provided, the adjusted principal value of the bond repaid at maturity may be less than the original principal.

The value of inflation-indexed bonds is expected to change in response to changes in real interest rates. Real interest rates in turn are tied to the relationship between nominal interest rates and the rate of inflation. Therefore, if inflation were to rise at a faster rate than nominal interest rates, real interest rates might decline, leading to an increase in value of inflation-indexed bonds. In contrast, if nominal interest rates increased at a faster rate than inflation, real interest rates might rise, leading to a decrease in value of inflation-indexed bonds.

While the values of these securities are expected to be protected from long-term inflationary trends, short-term increases in inflation may lead to declines in values. If interest rates rise due to reasons other than inflation (for example, due to changes in currency exchange rates), investors in these securities may not be protected to the extent that the increase is not reflected in the bond’s inflation measure.

When-Issued, Delayed-Delivery, To Be Announced (“TBA”) and Forward Commitment Transactions: The Funds may enter into when-issued, delayed-delivery, TBA or forward commitment transactions in order to lock in the purchase price of the underlying security or to adjust the interest rate exposure of each Fund’s existing portfolio. In when-issued, delayed-delivery, TBA or forward commitment transactions, a Fund commits to purchase or sell particular securities, with payment and delivery to take place at a future date. Although a Fund does not pay for the securities or start earning interest on them until they are delivered, it immediately assumes the risks of ownership, including the risk of price fluctuation. If a Fund’s counterparty fails to deliver a security purchased on a when-issued, delayed-delivery, TBA or forward commitment basis, there may be a loss, and the Fund may have missed an opportunity to make an alternative investment.

Prior to settlement of these transactions, the value of the subject securities will fluctuate with market conditions. In addition, because the Funds is not required to pay for when-issued, delayed-delivery, TBA or forward commitment securities until the delivery date, they may result in a form of leverage to the extent the Fund does not set aside liquid assets to cover the commitment. To guard against this deemed leverage, the Fund monitors the obligations under these transactions on a daily basis and ensures that the Fund has sufficient liquid assets to cover them.

Dollar Roll Transactions: The Funds may enter into dollar roll transactions with financial institutions to take advantage of opportunities in the MBS market. A dollar roll transaction involves a simultaneous sale of securities by a Fund with an agreement to repurchase substantially similar securities at an agreed upon price and date, but generally will be collateralized at time of delivery by different pools of mortgages with different prepayment histories than those securities sold. These

 

158


TCW ETF Trust

 

October 31, 2025

 

NOTE 3 — PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS (Continued)

 

transactions are accounted for as financing transactions as opposed to sales and purchases. The differential between the sale price and the repurchase price is recorded as deferred income and recognized between the settlement dates of the sale and repurchase. During the period between the sale and repurchase, a Fund will not be entitled to receive interest and principal payments on the securities sold. Dollar roll transactions involve risk that the market value of the security sold by a Fund may decline below the repurchase price of the security and the counterparties may potentially be unable to complete the transaction. There were no such transactions by the Funds for the period ended October 31, 2025.

Repurchase Agreements: The Funds may enter into repurchase agreements under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement (“MRA”). In a repurchase agreement, the Funds purchase a security from a counterparty who agrees to repurchase the same security at a mutually agreed upon date and price. The MRA permits each Fund, 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 Fund. However, bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against such a right of offset in the event of the MRA counterparty’s bankruptcy or insolvency. Pursuant to the terms of the MRA, each Fund receives securities as collateral with a market value in excess of the repurchase price. Upon a bankruptcy or insolvency of the MRA counterparty, the Fund recognizes a liability with respect to such excess collateral to reflect the Fund’s obligation under bankruptcy law to return the excess to the counterparty. There were no repurchase agreements outstanding as of October 31, 2025.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements: The Funds may enter into reverse repurchase agreements accounted for as secured borrowings in accordance with ASC No. 860, Transfers & Servicing: Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings and Disclosures. Under a reverse repurchase agreement, a Fund sells portfolio assets subject to an agreement by the Fund to repurchase the same assets at an agreed upon price and date. The Funds may utilize reverse repurchase agreements when it is anticipated that the interest income to be earned from the investment of the proceeds of the transaction is greater than the interest expense of the transaction. During the term of the reverse repurchase agreement, the Funds continue to receive the principal and interest payments on the securities sold. There were no reverse repurchase agreements outstanding during the period ended October 31, 2025.

Securities Lending: The Funds may lend their securities to qualified brokers. The loans must be collateralized at all times primarily with cash although the Fund can accept money market instruments or U.S. Government securities with a market value at least equal to the market value of the securities on loan. As with any extensions of credit, the Fund may bear the risk of delay in recovery or even loss of rights in the collateral if the borrowers of the securities fail financially. The Funds earn additional income for lending their securities by investing the cash collateral in short-term investments. The Funds did not lend any securities during the period ended October 31, 2025.

Derivatives:

Forward Currency Exchange Contracts: The Funds enter into forward currency exchange contracts as a hedge against fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. Forward currency exchange

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

 

NOTE 3 — PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS (Continued)

 

contracts are marked-to-market daily and the change in market value is recorded by the Funds as unrealized gains or losses in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. When a contract is closed or delivery is taken, a Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Risks may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of the foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. Outstanding forward currency exchange contracts at October 31, 2025 are disclosed in the Schedule of Investments.

Futures Contracts: The Funds may enter into futures contracts. A Fund may seek to manage a variety of different risks through the use of futures contracts, such as interest rate risk, equity price risk, and currency risk. A Fund may use index futures to hedge against broad market risks to its portfolio or to gain broad market exposure. Securities index futures contracts are contracts to buy or sell units of a securities index at a specified future date at a price agreed upon when the contract is made, and are settled in cash. Positions in futures may be closed out only on an exchange or board of trade which provides a secondary market for such futures. Because futures contracts are exchange-traded, they typically have minimal exposure to counterparty risk. Parties to a futures contract are not required to post the entire notional amount of the contract, but rather a small percentage of that amount (by way of margin), both at the time they enter into futures transactions, and then on a daily basis if their positions decline in value; as a result, futures contracts are highly leveraged. Such payments are known as variation margin and are recorded by a Fund as unrealized gains or losses. Because futures markets are highly leveraged, they can be extremely volatile, and there can be no assurance that the pricing of a futures contract will correlate precisely with the pricing of the asset or index underlying it or the asset or liability of a Fund that is the subject of the hedge. It may not always be possible for a Fund to enter into a closing transaction with respect to a futures contract it has entered into at a favorable time or price. When a Fund enters into a futures transaction, it is subject to the risk that the value of the futures contract will move in a direction unfavorable to it.

When a Fund uses futures contracts for hedging purposes, it is likely that the Fund will have an asset or liability that will offset any loss (or gain) on the transactions, at least in part. When a futures contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. During the period ended October 31, 2025, the Funds utilized treasury futures to help manage interest rate duration and credit market exposure. Futures contracts outstanding at October 31, 2025 are listed in the Funds’ Schedule of Investments.

Options: The Funds may purchase and sell put and call options on a security or an index of securities to enhance investment performance and/or to protect against changes in market prices. The Funds may also enter into currency options to hedge against or to take advantage of currency fluctuations.

A call option gives the holder the right to purchase, and obligates the writer to sell, a security at the strike price at any time before the expiration date. A put option gives the holder the right to sell, and obligates the writer to buy, a security at the exercise price at any time before the expiration date. A Fund may purchase put options to protect portfolio holdings against a decline in market value of a security or securities held by it. A Fund may also purchase a put option hoping to profit from an

 

160


TCW ETF Trust

 

October 31, 2025

 

NOTE 3 — PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS (Continued)

 

anticipated decline in the value of the underlying security. If a Fund holds the security underlying the option, the option premium and any transaction costs will reduce any profit the Fund might have realized had it sold the underlying security instead of buying the put option. A Fund may purchase call options to hedge against an increase in the price of securities that the Fund ultimately wants to buy. A Fund may also purchase a call option as a long directional investment hoping to profit from an anticipated increase in the value of the underlying security. In order for a call option to be profitable, the market price of the underlying security must rise sufficiently above the exercise price to cover the premium and transaction costs. These costs will reduce any profit a Fund might have realized had it bought the underlying security at the time it purchased the call option.

Purchasing foreign currency options gives a Fund the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell specified amounts of currency at a rate of exchange that may be exercised by a certain date. These currency options may be used as a short or long hedge against possible variations in foreign exchange rates or to gain exposure to foreign currencies.

When a Fund purchases an option, it runs the risk that it will lose its entire investment in the option in a relatively short period of time, unless the Fund exercises the option or enters into a closing sale transaction before the option’s expiration. If the price of the underlying security does not rise (in the case of a call) or fall (in the case of a put) to an extent sufficient to cover the option premium and transaction costs, the Fund will lose part or all of its investment in the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options that expire are treated as realized losses.

Options purchased or sold by a Fund may be traded on a securities or options exchange. Such options typically have minimal exposure to counterparty risk. However, an exchange or market may at times find it necessary to impose restrictions on particular types of options transactions, such as opening transactions. If an underlying security ceases to meet qualifications imposed by an exchange or the Options Clearing Corporation, new series of options on that security will no longer be opened to replace the expiring series, and opening transactions in existing series may be prohibited.

OTC options are options not traded on exchanges or backed by clearinghouses. Rather, they are entered into directly between a Fund and the counterparty to the option. In the case of an OTC option purchased by a Fund, the value of the option to the Fund will depend on the willingness and ability of the option writer to perform its obligations to the Fund. In addition, OTC options may not be transferable and there may be little or no secondary market for them, so they may be considered illiquid. It may not be possible to enter into closing transactions with respect to OTC options or otherwise to terminate such options, and as a result a Fund may be required to remain obligated on an unfavorable OTC option until its expiration.

Swap Agreements: The Funds may enter into swap agreements. Swap agreements are typically two-party contracts entered into primarily by institutional investors. In a standard “swap” transaction, two parties agree to exchange the returns (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on particular predetermined investments or instruments, which may be adjusted for an interest factor. The gross returns to be exchanged or “swapped” between the parties are generally calculated with respect to a “notional amount” (i.e., the return on or increase in value of a particular dollar amount invested at a particular interest rate or in a “basket” of securities representing a particular index).

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

 

NOTE 3 — PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS (Continued)

 

In a total return swap, one party typically agrees to pay to the other a short-term interest rate in return for a payment at one or more times in the future based on the increase in the value of an underlying security or other asset, or index of securities or assets; if the underlying security, asset, or index declines in value, the party that pays the short-term interest rate must also pay to its counterparty a payment based on the amount of the decline. A Fund may take either side of such a swap, and so may take a long or short position in the underlying security, asset, or index. A Fund may enter into a total return swap to hedge against an exposure in its portfolio — such as interest rate risk (including to adjust the duration or credit quality of a Fund’s bond portfolio), equity risk, or credit risk — or generally to put cash to work efficiently in the markets in anticipation of, or as a replacement for, cash investments. A Fund may also enter into a total return swap to gain exposure to securities or markets in which it might not be able to invest directly (in so-called market access transactions).

Interest rate swaps are agreements in which one party pays a floating rate of interest on a notional principal amount and receives a fixed rate of interest on the same notional principal amount for a specified period of time. Alternatively, a party may pay a fixed rate and receive a floating rate. In more complex swaps, the notional principal amount may decline (or amortize) over time. A Fund’s maximum risk of loss due to counterparty default is the discounted NAV of the cash flows paid to/received from the counterparty over the interest rate swap’s remaining life.

The Funds may write (sell) and purchase put and call swaptions. Swaption contracts written by the Funds represent an option that gives the purchaser the right, but not the obligation, to enter into a new swap agreement, or to shorten, extend, cancel or modify an existing swap agreement, on a future date on specified terms. See “Swap Agreements” below. Depending on the terms of the particular option agreement, a Fund will generally incur a greater degree of risk when it writes a swaption than it will incur when it purchases a swaption. When a Fund purchases a swaption, it risks losing only the amount of the premium it has paid should it decide to let the option expire unexercised. However, when a Fund writes a swaption, upon exercise of the option the Fund will become obligated according to the terms of the underlying agreement. During the period ended October 31, 2025, none of the Funds held written swaptions.

A Fund may enter into credit default swap transactions as a “buyer” or “seller” of credit protection. In a credit default swap, one party provides what is in effect insurance against a default or other adverse credit event affecting an issuer of debt securities (typically referred to as a “reference entity”). In general, the buyer of credit protection is obligated to pay the protection seller an upfront amount or a periodic stream of payments over the term of the swap. If a “credit event” occurs, the buyer has the right to deliver to the seller bonds (or other obligations of the reference entity with a value up to the full notional value of the swap), and to receive a payment equal to the par value of the bonds or other obligations. Credit events that would trigger a request that the seller make payment are specific to each credit default swap agreement, but generally include bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring, obligation acceleration, obligation default, or repudiation/moratorium. When the Fund buys protection, it may or may not own securities of the reference entity. When a Fund sells protection under a credit default swap, the position may have the effect of creating leverage in the Fund’s portfolio through the Fund’s indirect long exposure to the issuer or securities on which the swap is written. When a Fund sells protection, it may do so either to earn additional income or to create such a “synthetic” long position.

NOTE 3 — PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS (Continued)

 

Whenever a Fund enters into a swap agreement, it takes on counterparty risk — the risk that its counterparty will be unable or unwilling to meet its obligations under the swap agreement. A Fund also takes the risk that the market will move against its position in the swap agreement. In the case of a total return swap, the swap will change in value depending on the change in value of the asset or index on which the swap is written. When a Fund enters into any type of swap for hedging purposes, it is likely that the Fund will have an asset or liability that will offset any loss (or gain) on the swap, at least in part. Swap agreements may be non-transferable or otherwise highly illiquid, and the Fund may not be able to terminate or transfer a swap agreement at any particular time or at an acceptable price.

During the term of a swap transaction, changes in the value of the swap are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by marking-to-market to reflect the market value of the swap. When the swap is terminated, a Fund will record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference, if any, between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the Fund’s basis in the agreement. Upfront swap premium payments paid or received by a Fund, if any, are recorded within the value of the open swap agreement on the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities and represent payments paid or received upon entering into the swap agreement to compensate for differences between stated terms of the swap agreement and prevailing market conditions (credit spreads, currency exchange rates, and other relevant factors). These upfront payments are recorded as realized gains or losses on each Fund’s Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap agreement.

During the term of a swap transaction, the periodic net payments can be made for a set period of time or may be triggered by a predetermined credit event. The net periodic payments may be based on a fixed or variable interest rate, the change in market value of a specified security, basket of securities or index, or the return generated by a security. These periodic payments received or made by the Fund are recorded as realized gains and losses, respectively. During the period ended October 31, 2025 the TCW Corporate Bond ETF entered into interest rate swaps to manage duration, the yield curve or interest rate risk by economically hedging the value of the fixed-rate bonds which may decrease when interest rates rise (interest rate risk). Outstanding swap agreements at October 31, 2025, if any, are disclosed in the Schedules of Investments.

NOTE 4 — RISK CONSIDERATIONS

Market Risk: The Funds’ investments will fluctuate with market conditions, and so will the value of your investment in the Funds. You could lose money on your investment in the Funds or the Funds could underperform other investments.

Liquidity Risk: The Funds’ investments in illiquid securities may reduce the returns of the Funds because they may not be able to sell the illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price. Investments in high-yield securities, foreign securities, derivatives or other securities with substantial

market and/or credit risk tend to have the greatest exposure to liquidity risk. Certain investments in private placements and Rule 144A securities may be considered illiquid investments. The Funds may invest in private placements and Rule 144A securities.

Interest Rate Risk: The values of the Funds’ investments fluctuate in response to movements in interest rates. If rates rise, the values of debt securities generally fall. The longer the average duration of a Fund’s investment portfolio, the greater the change in value.

TCW ETF Trust

 

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

 

NOTE 4 — RISK CONSIDERATIONS (Continued)

 

Mortgage-Backed and Other Asset-Backed Securities Risk: The Funds may invest in MBS or other ABS. The values of some mortgage-backed securities or other asset-backed securities may expose the Funds to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. When interest rates rise, the value of mortgage-related securities generally will decline; however, when interest rates are declining, the value of mortgage-related securities with prepayment features may not increase as much as other fixed-income securities. The rate of prepayments on underlying mortgages will affect the price and volatility of a mortgage-related security, and may shorten or extend the effective maturity of the security beyond what was anticipated at the time of purchase. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.

Derivatives Risk: Use of derivatives, which at times is an important part of the Funds’ investment strategies, involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. Investments in derivatives could cause the Funds to lose more than the principal amount invested. Also, suitable derivative transactions may not be available in all circumstances and there can be no assurance that the Funds will achieve their objective through the use of the derivatives.

Credit Risk: The values of any of the Funds’ investments may also decline in response to events affecting the issuer or its credit rating. The lower-rated debt securities in which a Fund may invest are considered speculative and are subject to greater volatility and risk of loss than investment-grade securities, particularly in deteriorating economic conditions. The value of some mortgage-related securities in which the Funds invest also may fall because of unanticipated levels of principal prepayments that can occur when interest rates decline. Certain Funds invest a material portion of their assets in securities of issuers that hold mortgage- and asset-backed securities and direct investments in securities backed by commercial and residential mortgage loans and other financial assets. The value and related income of these securities are sensitive to changes in economic conditions, including delinquencies and/or defaults. Continuing shifts in the market’s perception of credit quality on securities backed by commercial and residential mortgage loans and other financial assets may result in increased volatility of market price and periods of illiquidity that can negatively impact the valuation of certain issuers held by the Funds.

MBS and ABS are characterized and classified in a variety of different ways. These classifications include a view of the securities’ cash flow structure (pass-through, sequential pay, prepayment-protected, interest only, principal only, etc.), the security of the claim on the underlying assets (senior, mezzanine and subordinated), as well as types of underlying collateral (prime conforming loans, prime non-conforming loans, Alt-A loans, subprime loans, commercial loans, etc.). In many cases, the

classification incorporates a degree of subjectivity: a particular loan might be categorized as “prime” by the underwriting standards of one mortgage issuer while another might classify the loan as “subprime.” In addition to other functions, the risk associated with an investment in a mortgage loan must take into account the nature of the collateral, the form and the level of credit enhancement, the vintage of the loan, the geography of the loan, the purpose of the loan (refinance versus purchase versus equity takeout), the borrower’s credit quality (e.g., FICO score), and whether the loan is a first trust deed or a second lien.

NOTE 4 — RISK CONSIDERATIONS (Continued)

 

Counterparty Risk: The Funds may be exposed to counterparty risk, the risk that an entity with which a Fund has unsettled or open transactions may not fulfill its obligations.

Foreign Currency Risk: The Funds may be exposed to the risk that the value of the Funds’ investments denominated in foreign currencies will decline in value because the foreign currencies have declined in value relative to the U.S. dollar.

Foreign Investing Risk: The Funds may be exposed to the risk that the Funds’ share prices will fluctuate with market conditions, currency exchange rates and the economic and political climates in countries where the Funds invest.

U.S. Trade Policy Risk: There have been significant changes to United States trade policies, treaties and tariffs, and in the future there may be additional significant changes. These and any future developments, and continued uncertainty surrounding trade policies, treaties and tariffs, may have a material adverse effect on global economic conditions, inflation and the stability of global financial markets, and may significantly reduce global trade and, in particular, trade between the impacted nations and the United States. Any of these factors could depress economic activity and restrict the access by issuers of our portfolio securities to suppliers or customers, increase their supply-chain costs and expenses and could have material adverse effects on our portfolio investments.

Investment Style Risk: Certain Funds may also be subject to investment style risk. The Adviser’s investment styles may be out of favor at times or may not produce the best results over short or longer time periods and may increase the volatility of a Fund’s share price.

Bank Loan Risk: There is a risk of investing in corporate loans made by commercial banks and other financial institutions or institutional investors to companies that need capital to grow or restructure, which includes interest rate risk, liquidity risk and prepayment risk. A Fund may also be subject to the credit risk of other financial institutions and the risks associated with insufficient collateral securing a bank loan, limited available public information about a bank loan, delayed settlement, and less protection for holders of bank loans as compared to holders of registered securities. Bank loans are not registered and otherwise may not be treated as securities under the federal securities laws, meaning investors in loans have less protection against improper practices than investors in securities that are registered under or are otherwise subject to the protections of the securities laws.

NOTE 5 — FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

It is the policy of the Funds to comply with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its net taxable income, including any net realized gains on investments, to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense on the Statements of operations. Management of the Funds is required to determine whether a tax position taken by the Funds is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority. Based on its analysis, Management has concluded that the Funds do not have any unrecognized tax benefits or uncertain tax positions that would require a provision for income tax. Accordingly, the Funds did not incur any interest or

There were no borrowings from the line of credit as of or during the year ended October 31, 2025. The Funds pay the Bank a commitment fee equal to 0.25% per annum on the unused portion of the committed line amount. The commitment fees incurred by the Funds would be presented in each Fund’s Statements of Operations. The commitment fees would be allocated to each applicable Fund in proportion to its relative average daily net assets and the interest expenses are charged directly to the applicable Fund.

NOTE 10 — CREATION AND REDEMPTION TRANSACTIONS

Each Fund issues and redeems shares (“Shares”) at NAV only in aggregations of a specified number of Shares (each a “Creation Unit”). The Funds may issue and redeem Creation Units of its Shares in exchange for a designated basket of portfolio investments (including any portion of such investments for which cash may be substituted) (“Deposit Instruments”), together with the deposit of a specified cash payment (“Cash Component”). Shares of each Fund are listed and trade on the New York Stock Exchange LLC (the “Exchange” or “NYSE”), a national securities exchange. Shares of the Funds are traded in the secondary market and elsewhere at market values that may be at, above or below each Fund’s NAV. Shares are redeemable only in Creation Units by authorized participants that have entered into agreements with the Distributor (“Authorized Participants”), and, generally, in exchange for securities in kind and or a cash amount. Creation Units typically are large blocks of a specified number of shares or multiples thereof. In the event of liquidation of a Fund, the Trust may lower the number of shares in a Creation Unit.

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

 

NOTE 10 — CREATION AND REDEMPTION TRANSACTIONS (Continued)

 

Shares may be issued in advance of receipt of Deposit Instruments, subject to various conditions, including a requirement that the Authorized Participant maintain with the Trust a cash deposit in an amount at least equal to a specified percentage, as set forth in the applicable Participant Agreement, of the value of the missing Deposit Instruments. The Trust may use such cash deposit at any time to purchase Deposit Instruments. Transaction fees and other costs associated with creations or redemptions that include cash may be higher than the transaction fees and other costs associated with in-kind creations or redemptions. In all cases, conditions with respect to creations and redemptions of Shares and fees will be limited in accordance with the requirements of SEC rules and regulations applicable to management investment companies offering redeemable securities.

NOTE 13 — RESTRICTED SECURITIES

The Funds are permitted to invest in securities that have legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities may be sold privately, but are required to be registered before being sold to the public (exemption rules apply). Private placement securities are generally considered to be restricted except for those securities traded between qualified institutional investors under the provisions of Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). However, the Company considers 144A securities to be restricted if those securities have been deemed illiquid. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. The restricted securities held by the Funds at October 31, 2025 are listed below.

NOTE 15 — INDEMNIFICATIONS

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its Officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into agreements with service providers that may

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

 

NOTE 15 — INDEMNIFICATIONS (Continued)

 

contain indemnification clauses. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Trust expects the risk of loss to be remote. The Trust has not accrued any liability in connection with such indemnification.

NOTE 16 — SEGMENT REPORTING

In the reporting period, the Funds adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update 2023-07, Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. Adoption of the new standard impacted financial statement disclosures only and did not affect the Funds’ financial position or the results of their operations. The Funds represent a single operating segment as the operating results of the Funds are monitored as a whole and their long-term asset allocation is determined in accordance with the terms of the applicable prospectus, based on defined investment objectives that is executed by the Funds’ portfolio management team. A senior executive team comprised of the Funds’ Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, serves as the Funds’ chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), who act in accordance with Board of Trustee reviews and approvals. The CODM uses financial information, such as changes in net assets from operations, changes in net assets from fund share transactions, and income and expense ratios, consistent with that presented within the accompanying financial statements and financial highlights to assess the Funds’ profits and losses and to make resource allocation decisions. Segment assets are reflected in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as Net Assets, which consists primarily of investment securities, at value, and significant segment expenses are listed in the accompanying Statement of Operations.

NOTE 17 — NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which enhances income tax disclosure requirements, including, but not limited to, those with respect to the Fund’s income tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. Management is currently evaluating the ASU and its impact to the financial statements.

NOTE 18 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Management has evaluated subsequent events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the financial statements were issued and has determined that there are no material events that would require recognition or disclosure in the Funds’ financial statements.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements and financial highlights 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 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 financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (Continued)

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, 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 financial statements and financial highlights. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2025, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Board Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited)

 

Renewal of Investment Advisory Agreement

The Investment Company Act of 1940 requires that both the full Board of Trustees and a majority of non-interested (“Independent”) Trustees, voting separately, annually approve the continuation of each Fund’s investment advisory agreement (each, an “Agreement”) with TCW Investment Management Company LLC (the “Advisor”). The Trustees consider matters bearing on the Funds and their advisory agreements throughout the year, including a review of performance data at each regular meeting. In addition, at an in-person meeting on September 15, 2025, the Board approved the renewal of the Agreement for an additional one-year term from [TCW to insert contract begin date] through [TCW to insert contract end date]. The renewal of the Agreement was approved by the Board (including by a majority of the Independent Trustees) upon the recommendation of the Independent Trustees. The Independent Trustees also met by videoconference in a working session on August 21, 2025 to hear presentations by representatives of the Advisor, to ask related questions, to review and discuss materials provided by the Advisor for their consideration, and to meet separately with their independent legal counsel. On September 15, 2025, they also met separately with their independent legal counsel to review and discuss supplemental information that had been requested on their behalf by their independent legal counsel and presented by the Advisor. The information, material facts, and conclusions that formed the basis for the Independent Trustees’ recommendation and the Board’s subsequent approval are described below.

1. Information received

Materials reviewed—Over the period since October 13, 2023, when the Advisor acquired the exchange-traded fund platform of Engine No. 1 LLC (“Engine No. 1”), the former investment adviser to the Trust, the Trustees received a wide variety of materials relating to the services provided by the Advisor, including reports on the Advisor’s investment processes, as well as on each Fund’s investment results, portfolio composition, portfolio trading practices, compliance monitoring, shareholder services, and other information relating to the nature, extent, and quality of services provided by the Advisor to the Funds. In addition, the Board reviewed information furnished to the Independent Trustees in response to a detailed request sent to the Advisor on their behalf. The information in the Advisor’s responses included extensive materials regarding each Fund’s investment results, advisory fee comparisons to advisory fees charged by the Advisor to its institutional clients, financial and profitability information regarding the Advisor, descriptions of various services provided to the Funds and to other advisory and sub-advisory clients, descriptions of functions such as compliance monitoring and portfolio trading practices, and information about the personnel providing investment management services to each Fund. The Trustees also considered information provided by an independent data provider, Broadridge, comparing the investment performance and the fee and expense levels of each Fund to those of appropriate peer groups of registered funds selected by Broadridge. After reviewing this information, the Trustees requested additional information from the Advisor, which the Advisor provided and the Trustees considered.

Review process—The Trustees’ determinations were made on the basis of each Trustee’s business judgment after consideration of all the information presented. The Independent Trustees were advised by their independent legal counsel throughout the renewal process and received and reviewed advice from their independent legal counsel regarding legal and industry standards applicable to the renewal of the Agreement, including a legal memorandum from their independent legal counsel discussing their fiduciary duties related to their approval of the continuation of the

Board Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

Agreement. The Independent Trustees also discussed the renewal of the Agreement with the Advisor’s representatives and in private sessions at which no representatives of the Advisor were present. In deciding to recommend the renewal of the Agreement with respect to each Fund, the Independent Trustees did not identify any single piece of information or particular factor that, in isolation, was the controlling factor. Some of the factors that figured particularly in the Trustees’ deliberations are described below, although individual Trustees may have evaluated the information presented differently from one another, giving different weights to various factors. It is also important to recognize that the fee arrangements for each Fund are the result of years of review and discussion between the Independent Trustees and the Board, that certain aspects of such arrangements may receive greater scrutiny in some years than in others, and that the Trustees’ conclusions may be based, in part, on their consideration of these same arrangements during the course of the year and in prior years. This summary describes the most important, but not all, of the factors considered by the Board and the Independent Trustees.

2. Nature, extent, and quality of services provided by the Advisor

The Board and the Independent Trustees noted that the Advisor had become investment adviser to the Trust effective October 13, 2023, when the Advisor acquired the exchange-traded fund platform of Engine No. 1. The Board and the Independent Trustees considered the depth and quality of the Advisor’s investment management process, including its research and strong analytical capabilities; the experience, capability, and integrity of its senior management and other personnel; the advance planning and transition arrangements put in place with respect to the changes in key portfolio management and other personnel; and the overall resources available to the Advisor in managing the Funds’ assets. The Board and the Independent Trustees considered the ability of the Advisor to attract and retain well-qualified investment professionals, noting in particular the Advisor’s hiring of professionals in various areas over the past several years, continued upgrading of resources in its middle office and back office operations and other areas, as well as a continuing and extensive program of infrastructure and systems enhancements, including business continuity, cybersecurity, and the modernization of the technology ecosystem with the implementation of Aladdin, as well as investments in sales and marketing to increase brand awareness, updates to information security defenses, and budgeting for certain future initiatives. The Board and the Independent Trustees noted the significant role played by the Advisor, as valuation designee, with respect to the valuation of portfolio securities, including research and analysis related to fair valued securities and due diligence and oversight of pricing vendors. The Board and the Independent Trustees also considered that the Advisor made available to its investment professionals a variety of resources and systems relating to investment management, compliance, trading, operations, administration, research, portfolio accounting, and legal matters. They noted the substantial additional resources made available by The TCW Group, Inc., the parent company of the Advisor (“TCW”). The Board and the Independent Trustees examined and discussed a detailed description of the extensive additional services provided to the Funds to support their operations and compliance, as compared to the much narrower range of services provided to the Advisor’s institutional and sub-advised clients, as well as the Advisor’s oversight and coordination of numerous outside service providers to the Funds. They further noted the high level of regular communication between the Advisor and the Independent Trustees. The Advisor explained its responsibility to supervise the activities of the Funds’ various service providers, as well as supporting the Independent Trustees and their meetings, regulatory filings, and various operational personnel, and the related costs.

TCW ETF Trust

 

The Board and the Independent Trustees concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by the Advisor are of a high quality and have benefited and should continue to benefit the Funds and their shareholders.

3. Investment results

The Board and the Independent Trustees considered the investment results of each Fund in light of its investment objective(s) and principal investment strategies. They compared each Fund’s total returns with the total returns of other registered funds in peer group reports prepared by Broadridge with respect to various longer and more recent periods all ended May 31, 2025. The Board and the Independent Trustees reviewed information as to peer group selections presented by Broadridge and discussed the methodology for those selections with Broadridge. In reviewing each Fund’s relative performance, the Board and the Independent Trustees took into account each Fund’s investment strategies, distinct characteristics, asset size and diversification.

The Board and the Independent Trustees reviewed each Fund’s performance over the relevant periods. The Board and the Independent Trustees noted that the investment performance of each Fund was generally close to or above the median performance of the applicable peer group during the three-year period emphasized by Broadridge in the supplemental materials, and for the period since inception for those Funds with shorter operating histories. The Board indicated that it would continue to monitor portfolio investment performance on a regular basis and discuss with the Advisor from time to time any instances of long-term underperformance that may arise.

The Board and the Independent Trustees noted that the performance of the Funds for the various periods reviewed ranked in the first, second or third quintiles, with certain exceptions, as noted below. The Board and the Independent Trustees considered that certain of the Funds, including the Flexible Income ETF, Corporate Bond ETF, High Yield Bond ETF and Senior Loan ETF were newly formed but had acquired the performance history of their respective predecessor mutual fund, each of which was managed by the Advisor or its affiliate. The Board and the Independent Trustees further considered that certain other Funds had relatively short operating histories, and that these Funds had been managed by another investment adviser prior to October 13, 2023.

For the Flexible Income ETF, the Board and the Independent Trustees noted that the Fund’s performance was in the first quintile for the five-, three-and one-year periods. The Board and the Independent Trustees further noted that the Fund had acquired the assets and liabilities of its predecessor mutual fund, the Metropolitan West Flexible Income Fund, effective June 24, 2024 and had adopted the performance history of that mutual fund.

For the Corporate Bond ETF, the Board and the Independent Trustees noted that the Fund’s performance was in the fourth quintile for the five- and three-year periods and in the second quintile for the one-year period and for the period since the Fund’s inception on June 29, 2018. The Board and the Independent Trustees further noted that the Fund had acquired the assets and liabilities of its predecessor mutual fund, the TCW Metropolitan West Corporate Bond Fund, effective November 18, 2024 and had adopted the performance history of that mutual fund. The Board and the Independent Trustees also took into account the Advisor’s discussions of the Fund’s relative underperformance for certain periods, including that the Fund’s underweight position in corporate credit as spreads have tightened and an overweight position in duration as rates have risen contributed to its underperformance. The Board and the Independent Trustees noted that, while the Fund

 

191


TCW ETF Trust

Board Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

underperformed relative to its benchmark and peer groups for certain periods, recent performance has been stronger.

For the High Yield Bond ETF, the Board and the Independent Trustees noted that the Fund’s performance was in the second quintile for the ten-year period, the fifth quintile for the five- and three-year periods and the fourth quintile for the one-year period. The Board and the Independent Trustees noted that the Fund had acquired the assets and liabilities of its predecessor mutual fund, the TCW High Yield Bond Fund, effective November 18, 2024 and had adopted the performance history of that mutual fund. The Board and the Independent Trustees also took into account the Advisor’s discussions of the relative underperformance of the Fund for certain periods, including that the Fund’s defensive positioning contributed to that underperformance, and noted the Fund’s stronger performance for the seven- and ten-year periods ended May 31, 2025.

For the Senior Loan ETF, the Board and the Independent Trustees noted that the Fund’s performance was in the third quintile for the five- and one-year periods and the second quintile for the three-year period. The Board and the Independent Trustees further noted that the Fund had acquired the assets and liabilities of its predecessor mutual fund, the TCW MetWest Floating Rate Income Fund, effective November 18, 2024 and had adopted the performance history of that mutual fund.

For the Multisector Credit Income ETF, the Board and the Independent Trustees noted that the Fund’s performance was in the second quintile for the period since the Fund’s inception on November 15, 2024. The Board and the Independent Directors considered the Fund’s limited operating history.

For AAA CLO ETF, the Board and the Independent Trustees noted that the Fund’s performance was ranked in the first quintile for the period since the Fund’s inception on November 15, 2024. The Board and the Independent Directors considered the Fund’s limited operating history.

4. Advisory fees and total expenses

The Board and the Independent Trustees compared the management fees and net total expenses of each Fund (each as a percentage of average net assets) with the median management fee and operating expense level of the other registered funds in the relevant Broadridge peer groups. These comparisons assisted the Board and the Independent Trustees by providing a reasonable statistical measure to assess each Fund’s fees relative to its relevant peers. The Board and the Independent Trustees noted that each Fund is an actively-managed ETF and that peer group comparisons are more challenging when considering active ETFs because of the uniqueness and complexity of investment styles among the respective peer funds.

The Flexible Income ETF was below the medians of the peer group funds for both management fees and net total expenses.

The Corporate Bond ETF was the same as the medians of the peer group funds for both management fees and net total expenses.

The High Yield Bond ETF, Senior Loan ETF, and Multisector Credit Income ETF were above the medians of their respective peer group funds for both management fees and net total expenses.

The AAA CLO ETF was the same as the median of the peer group funds for management fees and below the median for net total expenses.

 

192


TCW ETF Trust

 

The Board and the Independent Trustees observed the unitary fee structure of the Funds, under which the Advisor is responsible for substantially all other costs associated with managing and operating the Fund, except as set forth in the investment management agreement, and that the Advisor pays all distribution costs out of its own profits. The Board and the Independent Trustees considered that the unitary fee structure is used by exchange-traded funds due to the lower cost associated with ongoing management and distribution. The Board and the Independent Trustees also considered how these arrangements affected the expenses borne by each Fund’s shareholders and noted that the net total expense ratios were reasonable when taking into account the unitary fee arrangement.

The Board and the Independent Trustees also reviewed information regarding the advisory fees charged by the Advisor to its institutional and sub-advisory clients with similar investment mandates. The Board and the Independent Trustees concluded that, although the fees paid by those clients generally were lower than advisory fees paid by the Funds, the differences appropriately reflected the more extensive services provided by the Advisor to the Funds and the Advisor’s significantly greater responsibilities and expenses with respect to the Funds, including the additional time spent by portfolio managers for reasons such as managing the more active cash flows from creations and redemptions by authorized participants, the additional risks of managing a pool of assets for public investors, administrative burdens, daily pricing, valuation and liquidity responsibilities, the supervision of vendors and service providers, and the costs of additional infrastructure and operational resources and personnel and of complying with and supporting the more comprehensive regulatory and governance regime applicable to registered funds.

Based on these factors, the Trustees concluded that each Fund’s advisory fee was not unreasonable.

5. The Advisor’s costs, level of profits, and economies of scale

The Board and the Independent Trustees reviewed information regarding the Advisor’s costs of providing services to the Funds, as well as the resulting level of profits to the Advisor. They reviewed the Advisor’s stated assumptions and methods of allocating certain costs, such as personnel costs, which constitute the Advisor’s largest operating cost. The Board and the Independent Trustees recognized that the Advisor should be entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits for the services that it provides to each Fund. The Board and the Independent Trustees also reviewed a comparison of the Advisor’s profitability with respect to the Funds to the profitability of certain unaffiliated publicly traded asset managers, which the Advisor believed supported its view that the Advisor’s profitability was reasonable. Based on their review, the Board and the Independent Trustees concluded that they were satisfied that the Advisor’s level of profitability from its relationship with each Fund was not unreasonable or excessive.

The Board and the Independent Trustees considered the extent to which potential economies of scale could be realized as the Funds grow and whether the advisory fees reflect those potential economies of scale. They recognized that the advisory fees for the Funds do not have breakpoints, which would otherwise result in lower advisory fee rates as the Funds grow larger. The Board and the Independent Trustees recognized the benefits of the Advisor’s substantial past and ongoing investment in the advisory business, such as successfully recruiting and retaining key professional talent, systems and technology upgrades, added resources dedicated to legal, compliance, risk management and cybersecurity programs, and improvements to the overall firm infrastructure, as well as the financial pressures of competing against much larger firms and passive investment

products. The Board and the Independent Trustees also recognized that the Funds benefit from receiving investment advice from an organization with other types of advisory clients in addition to ETFs. The Board and the Independent Trustees considered the risk borne by the Advisor that the Funds’ net assets and thus the Advisor’s fees might decline in the event of sales and that smaller Funds might not grow to become profitable. The Board and the Independent Trustees concluded that the Advisor was appropriately sharing potential economies of scale with the Funds through reasonable fees and expenses, and through reinvesting in its capabilities for serving the Funds and their shareholders.

6. Ancillary benefits

The Board and the Independent Trustees also considered ancillary benefits received or to be received by the Advisor and its affiliates as a result of the relationship of the Advisor with the Funds. The Board and the Independent Trustees noted that, in addition to the fees the Advisor receives under the Agreement, the Advisor receives additional benefits in connection with management of the Funds in the form of reports, research and other services from brokers and their affiliates in return for brokerage commissions paid to such brokers. The Board and the Independent Trustees concluded that any potential benefits received or to be derived by the Advisor from its relationships with the Funds are reasonably related to the services provided by the Advisor to the Funds.

7. Conclusions

Based on their overall review, including their consideration of each of the factors referred to above (and others), the Board and the Independent Trustees concluded that the Agreement is fair and reasonable to each Fund and its shareholders, that each Fund’s shareholders received reasonable value in return for the advisory fees and other amounts paid to the Advisor by each Fund, and that the renewal of the Agreement was in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders.
