Harvest Announces Filing of the Preliminary Prospectus for 2 New Harvest Premium Yield ETFs

OAKVILLE, Ontario--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Harvest Portfolios Group Inc. (“Harvest”) is pleased to announce that it has filed a preliminary prospectus with the Canadian securities regulators for the Harvest Premium Yield Canadian Bank ETF (“HPYB”) and the Harvest Premium Yield Enhanced ETF (“HPYE”).

HPYB provides investors access to a Canadian Banks equity portfolio seeking long-term capital appreciation, on a levered basis, utilizing an active option strategy designed to provide steady monthly cash distributions, while HPYE provides investors access to the same strategy on a broad portfolio of equities.

“Harvest is pleased to offer two new premium yield ETFs for investors seeking equity exposure and attractive monthly cash distributions,” said Michael Kovacs, President and CEO of Harvest. “HPYB and HPYE complement our growing array of equity income ETFs.”

Investment Objectives of the 2 new Harvest Premium Yield ETFs

HPYB will seek to provide Unitholders with (i) the opportunity for capital appreciation by investing, directly or indirectly, on a levered basis, in a portfolio of Equity Securities of Canadian banks; (ii) regular cash distributions; and (iii) lower overall volatility of portfolio returns than would otherwise be experienced by owning the securities held by HPYB, directly. To achieve lower overall volatility of portfolio returns and generate monthly premiums, HPYB will write covered call and/or covered put options on the Equity Securities held in its portfolio. The level of option writing may vary based on market volatility and other factors.

HPYE will seek to provide Unitholders with (i) the opportunity for capital appreciation by investing, directly or indirectly, on a levered basis, in a portfolio of Equity Securities; (ii) regular cash distributions; and (iii) lower overall volatility of portfolio returns than would otherwise be experienced by owning the Equity Securities directly. To achieve lower overall volatility of portfolio returns and generate monthly premiums, HPYE will write covered call and/or covered put options on the Equity Securities held in its portfolio.
