T-REX 2X Long KTOS Daily Target ETF is a leveraged equity fund that seeks to deliver twice the daily price performance of Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, a defense and security technology company, through financial instruments including derivatives and borrowing. The fund carries a high expense ratio of 1.50% and has made a recent special distribution; distributions occur on an annual basis at a high current rate. This fund is designed for experienced investors seeking amplified short-term exposure to Kratos' stock price movements and is not suitable for buy-and-hold investors, as daily rebalancing in leveraged funds can result in returns that differ significantly from two times the longer-term performance of the underlying security.

How Dividend Vision calculates yield and returns
Distribution rate (the posted rate) uses calculation basis unavailable. Issuer rates can use a different denominator and date, including ex-date NAV. Trailing-12-month yield (13.59%) is the sum of split-adjusted cash distributions with ex-dates in the last 12 months, divided by the published price. It lags a recent raise or cut. Total return uses split-adjusted close with distributions reinvested on the ex-dividend date (a modeling convention, not the cash-settlement date) from the first stored bar on or after inception through the latest bar, compared with the same window on the benchmark. That is the security's total return, not your personal gain/loss.

KTUP risks and drawbacks
Payments are annual, so cash flow is lumpy versus a monthly fund. Total return has trailed KTOS over the available window. The deepest 1-year drawdown on record here is 94.7%.
Who may consider KTUP β and who may not
It is a weaker fit for investors who need monthly cash flow (KTUP pays annual); investors whose main goal is matching KTOS total return. This is educational context, not a recommendation to buy or sell.
