FCMH Fidelity US Momentum Currency Neutral ETF

TORONTO, Feb. 10, 2021 /CNW/ - Fidelity Investments Canada ULC, one of Canada's top investment management firms, today announced that it intends to subdivide the units (the Units) of the exchange-traded funds (the ETFs) listed below.

Each subdivision will be effective after the close of trading on March 3, 2021 for unitholders of record on March 2, 2021.

Units will trade on a "due bill" basis, as described below, on the TSX from March 1, 2021 to March 3, 2021. The Units will trade on a split-adjusted basis as of March 4, 2021.

Each "Split Ratio" shown below indicates the number of Units that a unitholder of the applicable ETF will hold after the subdivision in relation to the number of Units held by the unitholder before the subdivision. Unitholders of an ETF with a Split Ratio of 2:1 will be entitled to receive one additional Unit of that ETF for every Unit they own as of the record date. Unitholders of an ETF with a Split Ratio of 3:1 will be entitled to receive two additional Units of that ETF for every Unit they own as of the record date.

When the subdivision of the Units of an ETF occurs, the net asset value per Unit will decrease by the applicable Split Ratio, so that the subdivision has no impact on the value of the unitholder's total position. The unitholder's cost per Unit will also decrease by the same Split Ratio, although their total cost will remain unchanged.

The "due bill" trading procedures of the TSX will apply to the Unit subdivisions. A due bill is an entitlement attached to listed securities undergoing a corporate action, such as a Unit subdivision. Any trades that are executed on the TSX during the due bill period will be identified to ensure purchasers of the Units receive the entitlement to the Unit subdivision.

The mandates of the ETFs remain unchanged and there will be no impact to unitholders. Unitholders are not required to take any action, as their brokerage accounts will automatically be updated to reflect the Unit subdivisions after the effective date. A unitholder's broker may take several days to reflect the Unit subdivisions in the unitholder's account (the Settlement Period). Unitholders are encouraged to speak to their broker during the Settlement Period should they wish to trade any Units of the ETFs in question.
