ETFs and AUM reflect what Dividend Vision tracks — the issuer's full lineup may be larger.
TappAlpha operates a focused ETF lineup of four funds organized around two main families: Growth & Daily Income and T² Lift Series. The company's fund offerings span growth-oriented strategies and daily income approaches, with ticker symbols including TDAQ, TDAX, TSPY, and TSYX that target investors seeking regular income generation or equity growth exposure. As a smaller, specialized ETF provider, TappAlpha positions itself in a niche segment of the ETF market focused on daily income strategies and differentiated growth approaches.

TDAQ (TappAlpha Innovation 100 Growth & Daily Income ETF)
TSPY (TappAlpha SPY Growth & Daily Income ETF)
Objective
The TDAQ Lift ETF (the “Fund”) seeks daily leveraged investment results and is very different
from most other exchange-traded funds. As a result, the Fund may be riskier than alternatives
that do not use leverage because the Fund’s objective is to magnify (130%) the daily
performance of the ETF shares of the TappAlpha Innovation 100 Growth & Daily Income ETF
(NASDAQ: TDAQ) (“TDAQ”).
The Fund seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, of 130% of the daily
performance of TSPY. The Fund does not seek to achieve its stated investment objective for a
period of time different than a trading day.
