National Bank Investments Inc. ("NBI" or the "Investment Fund Manager") announced today the annual reinvested capital gains and/or net income distribution amount (the "reinvested distribution") to be paid for 2024 to unitholders of the Evovest Global Equity ETF (the â??EVO ETF"), as indicated in the table below.

NBI is the Investment Fund Manager of the EVO ETF and Evovest Inc. ("Evovest") acts as Portfolio Manager.

Unitholders of record on December 30, 2024, will receive the reinvested distribution on January 7, 2025. This distribution will be reinvested and the resulting units will be immediately consolidated.

Investors holding their units outside of registered plans will therefore have taxable amounts to report.

This amount is for the reinvested distribution only and does not include the cash distribution which is the subject of a separate press release.
