*MEDX since inception returns are as of September 30, 1999. Returns greater than one year are annualized. Effective January 27, 2023, the Medical Fund (“Predecessor Fund”) was reorganized into the Horizon Kinetics Medical ETF and first listed on the exchange on January 27, 2023. The returns shown for periods ending on or prior to January 27, 2023 are those of the Predecessor Fund, a 1940 Act mutual fund. Returns of the ETF will be different from the returns of the Predecessor Fund as they have different expenses. Market returns as of January 27, 2023 and thereafter are based on the closing price on the listed exchange at 4:00 p.m. ET and do not represent the returns an investor would receive if shares were traded at other times. Prior to this date, all returns are based on the Predecessor Fund’s at 4:00 p.m. ET NAV.
The performance quoted represents past performance and does not guarantee future results. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost and current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted.

Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. Shares of any ETF are bought and sold at market price (not NAV), may trade at a discount or premium to NAV and are not individually redeemed from the Fund. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns. The Fund’s investments in securities linked to real assets involve significant risks, including financial, operating, and competitive risks. Investments in securities linked to real assets expose the Fund to potentially adverse macroeconomic conditions, such as a rise in interest rates or a downturn in the economy in which the asset is located.
The Fund is non‐diversified, meaning it may concentrate its assets in fewer individual holdings than a diversified fund. Therefore, the Fund is more exposed to individual stock volatility than a diversified fund. The Fund invests in foreign securities which involve greater volatility and political, economic and currency risks and differences in accounting methods. These risks are greater for investments in emerging markets. The S&P 500 Index is a broad based index intended to show the performance of the 500 largest companies listed on stock exchanges in the United States.
The Fund may invest in the securities of smaller and mid‐capitalization companies, which may be more volatile than funds that invest in larger, more established companies. The Fund is actively managed and may be affected by the investment adviser’s security selections. Diversification does not assure a profit or protect against a loss in a declining market.
