Franklin Templeton Canada today announced cash distributions for certain ETFs and ETF series of mutual funds available to Canadian investors.

As detailed in the table below, unitholders of record as of November 28, 2025, will receive a per-unit cash distribution payable on December 8, 2025.

Estimated Annual Reinvested Distributions 

Unitholders of record on December 30, 2025, will receive a per-unit reinvested distribution payable on January 8, 2026. These annual reinvested distributions, detailed in the table below, are estimates only as of September 30, 2025. The final year-end distribution amounts will be announced on December 19, 2025.

The annual reinvested distributions, as applicable, will not be paid in cash but reinvested in additional units and reported as taxable distributions, with a corresponding increase in each unitholder's adjusted cost base of their units of the respective ETF. The additional ETF units will be immediately consolidated so that the number of units held by the unitholder, the outstanding units and the net asset value of the ETFs will not change as a result of the annual reinvested distribution. The annual reinvested distributions, as applicable, are expected to be capital gains in nature for each of the ETFs.

The actual taxable amounts of cash and reinvested distributions for 2025, including the tax characteristics of the distributions, will be reported to brokers through CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. in early 2026.
