growth trend
Amplify ETFs announces the launch of the Amplify International
Online Retail ETF (NYSE Arca: XBUY), an index-based ETF that seeks
exposure to international companies expected to benefit from the
increased adoption of e-commerce around the world. A complementary
product to the firm’s flagship Online Retail ETF, (Nasdaq: IBUY),
companies in XBUY’s portfolio fall within the same three e-commerce
business segments: marketplace, traditional retail and travel.
“Many of the fastest growing e-commerce markets reside outside
of the U.S., primarily in developing countries where mobile devices
are stoking demand,” said Christian Magoon, CEO of Amplify ETFs.
“XBUY presents a compelling opportunity for investors to capitalize
on this international growth, a segment where 80% of total online
retail sales in 2018 were from countries outside the U.S.”
XBUY seeks investment results that generally correspond to the
EQM International Ecommerce Index (XBUYXT). The rules-based index
is comprised of a diverse group of non-U.S. companies that generate
at least 90% of their revenue from online and virtual retail
sales.

About Amplify ETFs
Amplify ETFs, sponsored by Amplify Investments, has over $650
million in assets across ETFs for which it is Adviser or
Sub-Adviser (as of 12/31/2018). Amplify believes the ETF structure
empowers investors through efficiency, transparency and
flexibility. Using those benefits as a foundation, Amplify seeks to
build ETFs powered by investment strategies from leading index
providers and asset managers within unique market segments. Amplify
is also the sponsor of YieldShares, a brand of income-oriented
ETFs.
Carefully consider the Fund’s investment objectives, risk
factors, charges, and expenses before investing. This and
additional information can be found in Amplify Funds statutory and
summary prospectus, which may be obtained above or by calling
855-267-3837, or by visiting AmplifyETFs.com. Read
the prospectus carefully before investing.
Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of
principal. The fund is new with limited operating history. 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. Narrowly
focused investments typically exhibit higher volatility. A
portfolio concentrated in a single industry, such as the online
retail industry, makes it vulnerable to factors affecting the
industry. The Fund may face more risks than if it were diversified
broadly over numerous industries or sectors. Investments in
consumer discretionary companies are tied closely to the
performance of the overall domestic and international economy,
interest rates, competition and consumer confidence. Online retail
companies are subject to risks of consumer demand and sensitivity
to profit margins. Additionally, technology and internet companies
are subject to rapidly changing technologies; short product life
cycles; fierce competition; aggressive pricing and reduced profit
margins; the loss of patent, copyright and trademark protections;
cyclical market patterns; evolving industry standards; and frequent
new product introductions. Information technology companies may be
smaller and less experienced companies, with limited product lines,
markets or financial resources and fewer experienced management or
marketing personnel. Stocks of many internet companies have
exceptionally high price-to-earnings ratios with little or no
earnings histories. Information technology company stocks,
especially those which are internet related, have experienced
extreme price and volume fluctuations that are often unrelated to
their operating performance. The Fund is non-diversified, meaning
it may concentrate its assets in fewer individual holdings than a
diversified fund. Investments in smaller companies tend to have
limited liquidity and greater price volatility than
large-capitalization companies. Investments in foreign securities
involve greater volatility and political, economic, and currency
risks and differences in accounting methods. The Fund's return may
not match or achieve a high degree of correlation with the return
of the underlying Index. To the extent the Fund utilizes a sampling
approach, it may experience tracking error to a greater extent than
if the Fund had sought to replicate the Index.
The EQM International Ecommerce Index seeks to measure the
performance of equity securities (common stock and depositary
receipts) issued by non-U.S. companies that derive at least 90% of
their revenue from online business transactions or e-commerce
platforms. The Index is premised on the principle that companies
that currently derive a significant portion of their revenues from
online and/or virtual business transactions may be better
positioned to benefit from the projected growth in online retail
activity than those companies deriving on a portion of their
revenues from such activities.
EQM Indexes is the Index Provider for the Fund. EQM Indexes is
not affiliated with the Trust, the Investment Adviser or the
distributor. The Investment Adviser has entered into a license
agreement with EQM Indexes to use the Online Retail Index. The Fund
is entitled to use its Index pursuant to a sublicensing arrangement
with the Investment Adviser.
Amplify Investments LLC serves as the Investment Advisor and
Penserra Capital Management LLC serves as Sub-Advisor to the
fund.
Amplify ETFs are distributed by Quasar Distributors LLC
