LongPoint Adds USD Shares to Return Stacked Global Balanced & Macro ETF ("RGBM.U")

• RGBM.U stacks the returns of a global balanced allocation with a systematic macro overlay
• USD Shares provide a convenient USD hedged listing for U.S. dollar investors

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - April 30, 2025) - LongPoint Asset Management Inc. ("LongPoint"), ReSolve Asset Management Inc. ("ReSolve"), ReSolve Asset Management SEZC (Cayman) ("ReSolve Global"), and Newfound Research LLC ("Newfound") today announced the listing of the Return Stacked® Global Balanced & Macro ETF USD Shares (TSX: RGBM.U) on the Toronto Stock Exchange.

RGBM.U adds a U.S. dollar denominated series to complement the existing CAD Shares of the Return Stacked® Global Balanced & Macro ETF ("RGBM") listed earlier this year on February 6^th. RGBM.U further adds to the Canadian listings alongside the successful family of U.S. Return Stacked® ETFs. This follows the achievement of a major milestone in the U.S., surpassing $1 billion CAD in assets under management (AUM) in less than two years. ReSolve serves as portfolio manager to RGBM with ReSolve Global acting as portfolio sub-advisor. Each of LongPoint, ReSolve, ReSolve Global and Newfound are co-promoters of RGBM.

RGBM.U and the ETF Partnership Platform

RGBM.U is now the third listing launched under LongPoint's unique ETF partnership platform.

"LongPoint simplifies the launch, operation and growth of ETFs which can be daunting and commercially unviable for many asset managers looking to enter the Canadian ETF market. With our flexible platform, it can allow our partners to focus on their own areas of expertise while we oversee and administer the day-to-day operations of the ETF," said Steven Hawkins, CEO of LongPoint. "RGBM.U adds to the already successful Canadian listing of RGBM based off the recognized success of the teams at ReSolve and ReSolve Global in the Canadian marketplace."

RGBM.U seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing, directly or indirectly, in a global balanced strategy consisting of global equity securities and fixed income securities, and using leverage and derivative instruments, to stack on the returns of a systematic macro strategy that provides exposure to major global asset classes including but not limited to equity indices, volatility indices, fixed income indices, interest rates, commodities and currencies. RGBM.U uses leverage and derivative instruments to stack the returns of a global balanced strategy with those of a systematic macro strategy.

The Canadian dollar currency exposure in the USD Shares to the global balanced strategy is hedged back to the U.S. dollar.

RGBM.U allows Canadian individuals, advisors and institutional investors the ability to add a diversifying alternative to their portfolios by accessing the power of Return Stacking while investing in U.S. dollar exposed assets.

Key Benefits of a Return Stacked® Approach

• Multi-Layered Exposure: Aims to deliver the returns of both a balanced global portfolio stacked with a systematic global macro overlay in a single investment.
• Diversification: The systematic global macro strategy has historically exhibited low correlation to both stocks and bonds.
• Inflation Hedging: Historically, with the ability to go both long and short global futures markets (including equities, bonds, commodities, and currencies), systematic macro strategies have generally exhibited some inflation-hedging benefits.

RGBM.U has closed its offering of initial shares and will begin trading on the TSX when the market opens this morning.
