Horizons ETFs Confirms 2017 Annual Non-Cash Distributions
TORONTO, Dec. 29, 2017 /CNW/ - Horizons ETFs Management (Canada) Inc. ("Horizons ETFs") confirmed today the annual non-cash distributions (the "Non-Cash Distributions") to unitholders of certain of the exchange traded funds that Horizons ETFs manages (the "ETFs") for the 2017 tax year as indicated in the table below. Please note that this is a further update to the estimated annual Non-Cash Distributions previously announced on December 1, 2017, and updated on December 20, 2017.
Each of the ETFs is required to distribute any net income and capital gains that they have earned in the year. The annual Non-Cash Distributions will not be paid in cash but will be reinvested and reported as taxable distributions and will be used to increase each unitholder's adjusted cost base for the respective ETF. The nature of the Non-Cash Distributions for the respective ETFs as either income or capital gains is disclosed in the footnotes to the table below. The Non-Cash Distributions will be reinvested automatically in additional units of the respective ETFs and immediately consolidated so that the number of units held by the unitholder, the units outstanding of the ETFs, and the net asset value of the ETFs, will not change as a result of the Non-Cash Distributions. These amounts do not include the regular monthly or quarterly cash distributions, as applicable, announced on December 20, 2017.
The ex-dividend date for these distributions was December 28, 2017, for all unitholders of record on December 29, 2017. In early 2018, the tax characteristics of all distributions for 2017 for the ETFs will be reported to brokers via the CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. ("CDS") and will be posted on our website shortly thereafter.

The approximate U.S. dollar equivalent distribution rate for HMMJ.U is $0.17356 per unit. For unitholders who hold the U.S. dollar traded HMMJ.U, distribution payments will typically be converted to U.S. dollars by the unitholder's account holder. |
