Overview
Sprott Gold Miners Exchange Traded Fund (NYSE Arca: SGDM) seeks investment results that correspond (before fees and expenses) generally to the performance of its underlying index, the Solactive Gold Miners Custom Factors Index (Index Ticker: SOLGMCFT). The Index aims to track the performance of larger-sized gold companies whose stocks are listed on Canadian and major U.S. exchanges.
The Index uses a transparent, rules-based methodology that is designed to emphasize larger-sized gold companies with the highest revenue growth, free cash flow yield and the lowest long-term debt to equity. The Index is reconstituted on a quarterly basis to reflect the companies with the highest factor scores.

1 Inception Date: 7/14/2014.
2 Market Price is based on the midpoint of the bid/ask spread at 4 p.m. ET and does not represent the returns an investor would receive if shares were traded at other times.
3 The Premium/Discount is the amount (stated in dollars or percent) by which the selling or purchase price of an ETF is greater than (premium) or less than (discount) its face amount/value or net asset value (NAV).
4 Sprott Asset Management USA, Inc. (the “Adviser”), the Investment Adviser to the Fund, has contractually agreed to waive the management fee, and/or reimburse expenses so that Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver/Expense Reimbursements (not including distribution (12b-1) fees, shareholder service fees, acquired fund fees and expenses, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses) do not exceed a maximum of 0.50% of the share’s average daily net assets through April 30, 2025.
5 From July 22, 2019, forward Index data reflects the Fund’s current underlying Index, the Solactive Gold Miners Custom Factors Index (SOLGMCFT), which was created by Solactive AG ("Index Provider") to provide a means of generally tracking the performance of gold mining companies whose stocks are traded on Canadian and major U.S. exchanges. Index data prior to July 22, 2019, reflects the Fund’s former index, the Sprott Zacks Gold Miners Index (ZAXSGDM). Index data shown for periods that include dates prior to July 22, 2019, reflect a blend of the performance of the SOLGMCFT and ZAXSGDM Indices. An investor cannot invest directly in an Index. SGDM was reorganized from ALPS ETF Trust into Sprott ETF Trust on or about 7/19/19. SGDM is a continuation of the prior Fund and, therefore, the performance information shown includes the prior Fund's performance. The S&P 500 Index is a stock market index that tracks the stocks of 500 large-cap U.S. companies; it is included as a broader U.S. equities markets reference. As of September 30, 2024, one of the fund’s comparative indexes changed from the S&P 500 to the MSCI All Country World Index (MSCI ACWI) to offer a more fulsome view of the fund’s performance in relation to a broad cross-section of global markets. The MSCI ACWI includes stocks from 23 developed countries and 24 emerging markets, covering approximately 85% of the global investable equity opportunity set.
