About ORBX
The Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus borrowings for investment purposes (if any), in the securities of the Underlying Index, which may include common stocks, American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs"), and Global Depositary Receipts (“GDRs”). The Fund's 80% investment policy is non-fundamental and requires 60 days prior written notice to shareholders before it can be changed. The Underlying Index is owned and was developed by Global X Management Company LLC (the “Index Provider”), the Fund's investment adviser (the “Adviser”) and an affiliate of the Fund. The Underlying Index is administered and calculated by Mirae Asset Global Indices Pvt. Ltd. (the “Index Administrator”), an affiliate of the Index Provider and the Fund. The Underlying Index, as presently constituted, is designed to track the performance of space technology (“Space Tech”) companies involved in the commercialization of the global space economy. “Space Tech” means technology that is used to support, enable, and/or conduct activities beyond the surface of the Earth. Space Tech companies are companies that are involved in critical segments of the upstream and downstream Space Tech theme such as space technology and components, reusable launch vehicles, orbital transportation services, space exploration and tourism, and satellite-enabled telecommunications and data services, as described below. In constructing the Underlying Index, the Index Administrator analyzes industries and business segments within FactSet’s classification system that the Index Administrator considers to be related to the Space Tech theme to create an initial universe of eligible securities. FactSet is an independent leading financial data provider that maintains a comprehensive structured taxonomy designed to offer precise classification of global companies and their individual business units. Companies that are identified as deriving a significant proportion of their revenue from the following sub-themes will be evaluated for inclusion in the initial universe: •Rocket Launch and Reusable Rockets: Companies providing launch systems and reusable rocket technology reducing costs and increasing access to space for cargo, satellites, and missions. •Space Tech & Components: Companies delivering mission-critical hardware, components, software, and analytics that power modern space operations. This includes specialized engines, orbital transport systems, space-grade components, satellite imagery, AI based systems, and data solutions that underpin space manufacturing, logistics, intelligence gathering, and computing. •Satellite Telecommunications & Data Services: Companies engaged in delivering global connectivity systems powered by their satellite networks, enabling broadband internet, GPS, and secure communications for individual, commercial, and government use. This includes companies that design and manufacture satellites, satellite systems and platforms, spacecraft for satellites, and related technologies.•Space Transportation, Tourism and Exploration: Companies providing human spaceflight ventures, from orbital tourism to deep space missions, commercializing space travel as well as offering orbital discovery services.To be a part of the initial universe, companies must meet certain minimum market capitalization and liquidity criteria, as determined by the Index Administrator. As of March 31, 2026, companies other than those newly listed (as described below) must have a minimum market capitalization of $200 million and an average daily turnover for the last 6 months greater than or equal to $2 million for inclusion in the initial universe. Newly listed securities may be considered for inclusion subject to certain criteria related to trading history, number of days traded and market capitalization, determined by the Index Administrator. Additionally, companies must be listed in developed or emerging market countries to be eligible for inclusion in the initial universe. As of March 31, 2026, companies listed in the following countries are not eligible for inclusion: Bangladesh, China, India, Kuwait, Pakistan, Russia, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia. As of March 31, 2026, companies must have a minimum of 10% of their outstanding shares available for public investment or a "free float" market capitalization of $10 billion. After identifying business segments eligible for inclusion in the initial universe, the Index Administrator further screens securities within the segments to identify companies that derive a majority of their revenues from one or more of the stated business activities of the sub-themes. To be considered for inclusion in the Underlying Index, and therefore be considered a "Space Tech” company, companies must generate at least 50% of their revenues from one or more of the stated business activities of the above sub-themes, in aggregate, as determined by the Index Administrator. The Underlying Index is reconstituted and re-weighted on a quarterly basis; however, certain newly listed companies such as those that are listed via an initial public offering (“IPO”), direct listing, or spin-off and meet the Index Provider’s criteria may be added to the Underlying Index on a “fast entry” basis between scheduled quarterly reconstitutions. Newly listed companies will be assessed for inclusion on the second and fourth Friday of each month, with the exception of February, May, August, and November. In February, May, August, and November, newly listed companies will be considered for inclusion on the regular quarterly reconstitution dates in accordance with applicable eligibility requirements. The Underlying Index is weighted according to a modified capitalization weighting methodology. The modified capitalization weighting seeks to weight constituents based on their “free float” market capitalization subject to caps on the weights of the individual securities. Free float market capitalization measures a company’s market capitalization discounted by the percentage of its shares readily available to be traded by the general public in the open market (“free float”). At each rebalance, the maximum weight of any individual security will not exceed 20%. Modified capitalization weighting is expected to limit the Fund’s exposure to the largest market capitalization companies in the Underlying Index. The Underlying Index may include large-, mid- or small-capitalization companies; however, the Underlying Index is not required to reflect any one or all market capitalizations. As of March 31, 2026, the Underlying Index had 28 constituents. The Fund's investment objective and Underlying Index may be changed without shareholder approval. The Underlying Index is created and sponsored by the Index Provider. Any determinations related to the constituents of the Underlying Index are made by the Index Administrator and are independent of the Fund's portfolio managers. The Index Administrator determines the composition and relative weightings of the securities in the Underlying Index. The Adviser uses an indexing approach to try to achieve the Fund's investment objective. Unlike many investment companies, the Fund does not try to outperform the Underlying Index and does not seek temporary defensive positions when markets decline or appear overvalued. The Fund generally will use a replication strategy. A replication strategy is an indexing strategy that involves investing in the securities of the Underlying Index in approximately the same proportions as in the Underlying Index. However, the Fund may utilize a representative sampling strategy with respect to the Underlying Index when a replication strategy might be detrimental or disadvantageous to shareholders, such as when there are practical difficulties or substantial costs involved in compiling a portfolio of equity securities to replicate the Underlying Index, in instances in which a security in the Underlying Index becomes temporarily illiquid, unavailable or less liquid, or as a result of legal restrictions or limitations (such as tax diversification requirements) that apply to the Fund but not the Underlying Index. The Adviser expects that, over time, the correlation between the Fund's performance and that of the Underlying Index, before fees and expenses, will exceed 95%. A correlation percentage of 100% would indicate perfect correlation. If the Fund uses a replication strategy, it can be expected to have greater correlation to the Underlying Index than if it uses a representative sampling strategy. The Fund concentrates its investments (i.e., holds 25% or more of its total assets) in a particular industry or group of industries to approximately the same extent that the Underlying Index is concentrated. As of March 31, 2026, the Underlying Index was concentrated in the aerospace & defense industry and had significant exposure to the industrials sector. The Fund is classified as “non-diversified,” which means it may invest a larger percentage of its assets in a smaller number of issuers than a diversified fund.
