OZEM: Active Management Crucial in the Weight Loss Drug Landscape

The GLP-1 and weight loss drug landscape is teeming with innovation as companies test drugs with different agonists, methods of administration, and frequency of consumption. 

Since inception, the Roundhill GLP-1 & Weight Loss ETF (OZEM) has outperformed its direct peers. As an actively managed ETF, OZEM seeks to provide global exposure to weight loss stocks tackling obesity and supporting weight loss through ground-breaking drug development and innovation. Through October 31, Scholar Rock Holding (SRRK), Chugai Pharmaceuticals (4519 JP), and Eli Lilly (LLY) are the top three positive contributors to OZEM’s total return since inception.

ETF Discussion

Past performance does not guarantee future results. Short term performance, in particular, is not a good indication of the fund’s future performance, and an investment should not be made solely on returns. The standardized performance of each ticker is shown below.

Liquidity: Because these Funds are ETFs, only a limited number of institutional investors (known as “Authorized Participants”) are authorized to purchase and redeem shares directly from the Fund. In addition, there may be a limited number of market makers and/or liquidity providers in the marketplace. To the extent either of the following events occur, shares of the Fund may trade at a material discount to their net asset value (“NAV”) per share and possibly face delisting: (i) Authorized Participants exit the business or otherwise become unable to process creation and/or redemption orders and no other Authorized Participants step forward to perform these services, or (ii) market makers and/or liquidity providers exit the business or significantly reduce their business activities and no other entities step forward to perform their functions.

Guarantees or Insurance: An investment in the Fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.

The ETFs shown are not meant to be a representative sample of all weight loss ETFs. All funds shown are managed differently and do not react the same to economic or market events. The investment objectives, strategies, policies or restrictions of other funds may differ, and more information can be found in their respective prospectuses. Therefore, we generally do not believe it is possible to make direct fund comparisons in an effort to highlight the benefits of a fund versus another.

Carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of Roundhill ETFs before investing. This and other information about each fund is contained in the Prospectus. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing as it explains the risks associated with investing in the ETFs.

These include risks related to investments in small and mid-capitalization companies, which may be more volatile and less liquid due to limited resources or product lines and more sensitive to economic factors. Funds investments may be non-diversified, meaning its assets may be concentrated in fewer individual holdings than a diversified fund and, therefore, more exposed to individual stock volatility than diversified funds. Investments in foreign securities involves social and political instability, market illiquidity, exchange-rate fluctuation, high volatility and limited regulation risks. Emerging markets involve different and greater risks, as they are smaller, less liquid and more volatile than more develop countries. Depositary Receipts involve risks similar to those associated with investments in foreign securities, but may not provide a return that corresponds precisely with that of the underlying shares. All investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. Please see the prospectus for specific risks related to each fund.
