Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited)
Dear Valued Shareholders,
The following shareholder letter covers the period ended April 30, 2021.
What a difference a year makes. This time last year, the stock market was struggling to get out of a bear market. Millions of Americans were losing their jobs. The country was in lockdown due to the pandemic, and people had to wear masks in public at all times. The outlook for the economy was dire and the nation was sorely divided over the presidential election.
Today, the severe impact of Covid is fading away. The stock market has not only recovered but has soared to new heights. The economy has rebounded, growing over the last three quarters at its fastest pace in 70 years. And there was a peaceful, albeit slightly extended, transition of power in the White House.
Life is getting back to normal – of a sort – even if there are longer-lasting changes to the post-Covid world.
In 2020, we were pleased to see that Innovator ETFs performed true to design by mitigating the declines of a bear market. Thank you for staying with us as market uncertainty tested the resiliency of our ETFs.
Looking ahead, we see the potential for a lower-return environment, signaled by historically high equity market valuations and continued low bond yields. Our Defined Outcome ETFs seek to continue to buffer client portfolios on the downside while letting them stay invested in equities.
We are pleased to report that the Innovator Stacker ETF series, which we introduced to you last October, provided enhanced upside from the broader U.S. equity market in the past six months. Stackers seek to offer a combined upside exposure to the S&P 500, Nasdaq 100, and, in the case of the Triple Stacker, also the Russell 2000, while reflecting the downside of just the S&P 500.
Innovator’s Russell 2000, MSCI EAFE, MSCI Emerging Markets, and Nasdaq 100 Power Buffer ETFs performed true to design, bringing in upside exposure to their underlying benchmark indices while mitigating market swings. Meanwhile, in the face of the 21st century’s sharpest increase in long-term Treasury yields, our 20+ Treasury Bond 9 Buffer ETF and 20+ Treasury Bond 5 Floor ETF mitigated the downside with their built-in risk management features.
Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited) (Continued)
BUFFER:
Innovator's Buffer ETFs were the first Defined Outcome ETFs to come to market. In exchange for capped upside, they offer built-in buffers against downside loss. Innovator offers buffers of 9%, 15% or 30%, across all 12 calendar months.
STACKER:
Innovator's Stacker ETFs provide capped upside exposure to SPY, QQQ and IWM, and downside exposure to SPY only.
ACCELERATED:
Innovator's Accelerated ETFs are designed to offer 2x or 3x the upside return of SPY (SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust) or QQQ (Invesco QQQ Trust), to a cap, with single exposure on the downside, over a 3-month or 1-year outcome period.
As always, all of us at Innovator thank you for your patronage. We will continue to work hard to earn your trust and support.
Looking forward to even better times ahead,
Bruce Bond
Chief Executive Officer
The views in this report were those of the Fund’s CEO as of April 30, 2021 and may not reflect his views on the date that this report is first published or anytime thereafter. These views are intended to assist shareholders in understanding their investments and do not constitute investment advice.
The Funds are designed to provide point-to-point exposure to the price return of a reference asset via a basket of Flex Options over a one year or three month outcome period. As a result, the ETFs are not expected to move directly in line with the reference asset during the interim period. The funds have characteristics unlike other traditional investment products and may not be suitable for all investors. Please see "investor suitability" in the prospectus.
Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited) (Continued)
Investing involves risks. Loss of principal is possible. The Funds face numerous market trading risks, including active markets risk, authorized participation concentration risk, buffered loss risk, cap change risk, capped upside return risk, correlation risk, liquidity risk, management risk, market maker risk, market risk, non-diversification risk, operation risk, options risk, trading issues risk, upside participation risk and valuation risk. For a detail list of fund risks see the prospectus.
Foreign and Emerging Markets Risk Non-U.S. securities and Emerging Markets are subject to higher volatility than securities of domestic issuers due to possible adverse political, social or economic developments, restrictions on foreign investment or exchange of securities, lack of liquidity, currency exchange rates, excessive taxation, government seizure of assets, different legal or accounting standards, and less government supervision and regulation of securities exchanges in foreign countries.
Technology Sector Risk Companies in the technology sector are often smaller and can be characterized by relatively higher volatility in price performance when compared to other economic sectors. They can face intense competition which may have an adverse effect on profit margins.
Small Cap Risk Small cap companies may be more volatile and susceptible to adverse developments than their mid and large cap counterpart. In addition, the small cap companies may be less liquid than larger companies.
FLEX Options Risk The Funds will utilize FLEX Options issued and guaranteed for settlement by the Options Clearing Corporation (OCC). In the unlikely event that the OCC becomes insolvent or is otherwise unable to meet its settlement obligations, the Funds could suffer significant losses. Additionally, FLEX Options may be less liquid than standard options. In a less liquid market for the FLEX Options, the Funds may have difficulty closing out certain FLEX Options positions at desired times and prices.
Stacker ETF Risk While the Funds will not participate in any QQQ or IWM ETF (as applicable) losses over the duration of the Outcome Period as whole, a decrease in the value of the QQQ or IWM ETF share price will cause a decrease in the Fund’s NAV while an Outcome Period is ongoing. In the event an Outcome Period has begun, and the QQQ or IWM ETF share price has increased in value, such an increase will be reflected in the value of the Fund’s purchased call option on the QQQ or IWM ETF. Accordingly, in the event that the QQQ or IWM ETF share price were to subsequently decrease in value, that decrease would also be reflected in the value of that option, and therefore the Fund’s NAV. An investor that purchases Fund Shares after the QQQ or IWM ETF has increased in value during an Outcome Period may be negatively affected by future decreases during the remainder of the Outcome Period.
Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited) (Continued)
Fund shareholders are subject to an upside return cap (Cap) that represents the maximum percentage return an investor can achieve from an investment in the funds' for the Outcome Period, before fees and expenses. If the Outcome Period has begun and the Fund has increased in value to a level near to the Cap, an investor purchasing at that price has little or no ability to achieve gains but remains vulnerable to downside risks. Additionally, the Cap may rise or fall from one Outcome Period to the next. The Cap, and the Fund's position relative to it, should be considered before investing in the Fund. The Funds' website, www.innovatoretfs.com, provides important Fund information as well information relating to the potential outcomes of an investment in a Fund on a daily basis.
Some of the Funds seek to provide a buffer or floor level against Index losses during the Outcome Period; however, the Funds only seek to provide that respective level of buffer or floor level for those shareholders that hold shares for the entire Outcome Period. Depending upon market conditions at the time of purchase, a shareholder that purchases shares after the Outcome Period has begun may also lose their entire investment. For instance, if the Outcome Period has begun and the Fund has decreased in value beyond any pre-determined buffer or floor, an investor purchasing shares at that price may not benefit from the buffer or floor, as applicable. Similarly, if the Outcome Period has begun and the Fund has increased in value, an investor purchasing shares at that price may not benefit from the buffer or floor until the Fund’s value has decreased to its value at the commencement of the Outcome Period.
This material must be preceded by or accompanied with a prospectus. The Funds' investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses should be considered carefully before investing. The prospectus contains this and other important information, and it may be obtained at innovatoretfs.com. Read it carefully before investing.

(a) | Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the six month period). |
(b) | Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 30/365 (to reflect the period since the Fund's inception). |
(c) | Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 117/365 (to reflect the period since the Fund's inception). |
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The following table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which are not the Funds’ actual returns. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds with other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as brokerage commissions on the purchase and sale of Fund shares with respect to the Funds. Therefore, the table below is useful in comparing the ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs could have been higher.

The Funds are exchange traded funds that offer one class of shares, do not charge a sales load, do not have a redemption fee and currently do not charge a 12b-1 fee to their shareholders. The Innovator MSCI EAFE and MSCI Emerging Markets ETFs list and principally trade their shares on NYSE Arca (“NYSE”). All other Innovator ETFs included in this report each, respectively, list and principally trade their shares on Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (“Cboe BZX”).
Each Fund employs a specific “defined outcome strategy.” Defined outcome strategies generally seek to produce pre-determined investment outcomes based upon the performance of an index or one or more underlying securities. The Funds’ pre-determined outcomes (“Outcomes”) are based upon the price performance of a benchmark index or one or more underlying exchange-traded fund (the “Benchmark”) over a period of approximately one year or another predetermined period (“Outcome Period”). The Funds’ investment strategy provides shareholders with participation in any gains experienced by the applicable Benchmark over the course of the Outcome Period, subject to a cap on upside returns (a “Cap”), and, if applicable, a predetermined buffer (a “Buffer”) against Benchmark losses for the Outcome Period. These defined outcomes are managed by purchasing and selling call and put FLexible EXchange Options (“FLEX Options”) to create layers within a Fund’s portfolio. Each Fund’s FLEX Option has the same reference asset and expiration date, with uniquely selected strike prices for the Fund’s Outcome Period. Due to the customizable nature of FLEX Options that allows for specific strike prices to be selected for the same reference asset and expiration date, when each of the FLEX Options expire on the last day of the Outcome Period, the Funds are expected to achieve a Benchmark investment return with the applicable Buffer and Cap investment parameters.
The Funds are investment companies and accordingly follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 “Financial Services — Investment Companies”.

2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
Valuation:
The net asset values (“NAV”) of the Funds are determined as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE (normally 4:00 p.m. ET). If the NYSE closes early on a valuation day, the Funds shall determine NAV as of that time.
Portfolio securities generally shall be valued utilizing prices provided by independent pricing services. The Trust’s Pricing Committee (“Pricing Committee”) is responsible for establishing valuation of portfolio securities and other instruments held by the Funds in accordance with the Trust’s valuation procedures.
Common stocks, preferred stocks and other equity securities listed on any national or foreign exchange (excluding the NASDAQ National Market (“NASDAQ”) and the London Stock Exchange Alternative Investment Market (“AIM”)) are generally valued at the last sale price on the exchange on which they are principally traded or, for NASDAQ and AIM securities, the official closing price. Securities traded on more than one securities exchange are valued at the last sale price or official closing price, as applicable, at the close of the exchange representing the principal market for such securities. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market are valued at the mean of the bid and the asked price, if available, and otherwise at their closing bid price. Redeemable securities issued by open-end investment companies shall be valued at the investment company’s applicable net asset value, with the exception of exchange-traded open-end investment companies which are priced as equity securities. Fixed income securities, swaps, currency-, credit- and commodity-linked notes, and other similar instruments will be valued using a pricing service. Fixed income securities having a remaining maturity of 60 days or less when purchased will be valued at cost adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, provided the Pricing Committee has determined that the use of amortized cost is an appropriate reflection of fair value given market and issuer specific conditions existing at the time of the determination. Deposit accounts are valued at acquisition cost. Foreign securities and other assets denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate of such currencies against the U.S. dollar as provided by the pricing service. All assets denominated in foreign currencies will be converted into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect at the time of valuation. Restricted securities (with the exception of Rule 144A Securities for which market quotations are available) will normally be valued at fair value as determined by the Pricing Committee.
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
Exchange-traded option contracts (other than FLexible EXchange Option or “FLEX Option” contracts) will be valued at the closing price in the market where such contracts are principally traded. If no closing price is available, they will be fair valued at the mean of their most recent bid and asked price, if available, and otherwise at their closing bid price. OTC options are fair valued at the mean of the most recent bid and asked price, if available, and otherwise at their closing bid price. FLEX Options will be valued at a model-based price provided by the exchange on which the option is traded at the official close of that exchange’s trading date. If the exchange on which the option is traded is unable to provide a model price, FLEX Options prices will be provided by backup provider Super Derivatives. Otherwise, the value of a FLEX Option will be determined by the Pricing Committee in accordance with the Trust’s valuation procedures.
If no quotation can be obtained from a pricing service, then the Pricing Committee will then attempt to obtain one or more broker quotes for the security. If no quotation is available from either a pricing service or one or more brokers or if the Pricing Committee has reason to question the reliability or accuracy of a quotation supplied or the use of amortized cost, the value of any portfolio security held by the Funds for which reliable market quotations are not readily available will be determined by the Pricing Committee in a manner that most appropriately reflects fair market value of the security on the valuation date. The use of a fair valuation method may be appropriate if, for example: (i) market quotations do not accurately reflect fair value of an investment; (ii) an investment’s value has been materially affected by events occurring after the close of the exchange or market on which the investment is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market); (iii) a trading halt closes an exchange or market early; or (iv) other events result in an exchange or market delaying its normal close.

Fair Valuation Measurement:
FASB established a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under ASC, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), various inputs are used in determining the value of the Funds’ investments. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The three Levels of inputs of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:
| • | Level 1 – | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access. |
| • | Level 2 – | Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data. |
| • | Level 3 – | Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Funds’ own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available. |
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgement. Accordingly, the degree of judgement exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

There were no Level 3 investments for the Funds during the period ended April 30, 2021.
Option Contracts:
In general, an option contract is an agreement between a buyer and seller that gives the purchaser of the option the right to buy or sell a particular asset at a specified future date at an agreed upon price (commonly known as the “strike price”).
The Funds invest primarily in FLEX Option contracts. FLEX Options are customized option contracts that trade on an exchange but provide investors with the ability to customize key contract terms like strike price, style and expiration date while achieving price discovery in competitive, transparent auctions markets and avoiding the counterparty exposure of over-the-counter options positions. Like traditional exchange-traded options, FLEX Options are guaranteed for settlement by the OCC, a market clearinghouse that guarantees performance by counterparties to certain derivatives contracts. The FLEX Options in which the Funds will invest are all European style options (options that are exercisable only on the expiration date). The FLEX Options are listed on the Chicago Board Options Exchange.
The Funds will purchase and sell call and put FLEX Options. In general, put options give the holder (i.e., the buyer) the right to sell an asset (or deliver the cash value of the index, in case of an index put option) and the seller (i.e., the writer) of the put has the obligation to buy the asset (or receive cash value of the index, in case of an index put option) at a certain defined price. Call options give the holder (i.e., the buyer) the right to buy an asset (or receive cash value of the index, in case of an index call option) and the seller (i.e., the writer) the obligation to sell the asset (or deliver cash value of the index, in case of an index call option) at a certain defined price.
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
When the Funds purchase an option, an amount equal to the premium paid by the Funds are recorded as an investment and is subsequently adjusted to the current value of the option purchased. If an option expires on the stipulated expiration date or if the Funds enter into a closing sale transaction, a gain or loss is realized. If a call option is exercised, the cost of the security acquired is increased by the premium paid for the call. If a put option is exercised, a gain or loss is realized from the sale of the underlying security, and the proceeds from such sale are decreased by the premium originally paid. Purchased options are non-income producing securities.
When the Funds write an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Funds are recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current value of the option written. Premiums received from writing options that expire unexercised are treated by the Funds on the expiration date as realized gain from written options. The difference between the premium and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain, or if the premium is less than the amount paid for the closing purchase transaction, as a realized loss. If a call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security in determining whether the Funds have realized a gain or loss. If a put option is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the Funds. The Funds, as writers of an option, bear the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option.
All of the FLEX Option contracts held by the Funds are fully funded and cash settled, therefore balance sheet offsetting under ASC 210 does not apply.
The Funds bear the risk that the OCC will be unable or unwilling to perform its obligations under the FLEX Options contracts. In the unlikely event that the OCC becomes insolvent or is otherwise unable to meet its settlement obligations, the Funds could suffer significant losses. Additionally, FLEX Options may be less liquid than certain other securities such as standardized options. In less liquid market for the FLEX Options, the Funds may have difficulty closing out certain FLEX Options positions at desired times and prices. The Funds may experience substantial downside from specific FLEX Option positions and certain FLEX Option positions may expire worthless. The value of the underlying FLEX Options will be affected by, among others, changes in the value of the exchange, changes in interest rates, changes in the actual and implied volatility of the Index and the remaining time to until the FLEX Options expire. The value of the FLEX Options does not increase or decrease at the same rate as the level of the Index (although they generally move in the same direction). However, as a FLEX Option approaches its expiration date, its value typically increasingly moves with the value of the Index.

Use of Estimates:
In preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Guarantees and Indemnifications:
In the normal course of business, the Trust may enter into a contract with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims against the Trust that have not yet occurred. Based on experience, the Trust expects the risk of loss to be remote.

Tax Information:
The Funds are treated as separate entities for federal income tax purposes. The Funds intend to qualify as regulated investment companies (“RICs”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”). To qualify and remain eligible for the special tax treatment accorded to RICs, the Funds must meet certain annual income and quarterly asset diversification requirements and must distribute annually at least 90% of the sum of (i) its investment company taxable income (which includes dividends, interest and net short-term capital gains) and (ii) certain net tax-exempt income, if any. If so qualified, the Funds will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent the Funds distribute substantially all of their net investment income and capital gains to shareholders.
Management evaluates the Funds’ tax positions to determine if the tax positions taken meet the minimum recognition threshold in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken for the purposes of measuring and recognizing tax liabilities in the financial statements. Tax benefits associated with an uncertain tax position can be recognized only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by taxing authorities. Interest and penalties related to income taxes would be recorded as tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the period ended April 30, 2021, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Funds’ federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction. As of April 30, 2021, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. As of April 30, 2021, the Funds have no examinations in progress and management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Funds are subject to examination by U.S. Federal tax authorities for all tax years since inception.

U.S. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be reclassified between distributable earnings/(accumulated deficit) and additional paid-in capital. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. For the year or period ended October 31, 2020, the Funds made the following permanent book-to-tax reclassifications due to different treatment of redemptions for tax purposes:

Distributions to Shareholders:
Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Funds intend to pay out dividends from their net investment income, if any, as annually. Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, will be declared and paid at least annually by the Funds. The Funds may periodically make reclassifications among certain of its capital accounts as a result of the recognition and characterization of certain income and capital gain distributions determined annually in accordance with federal tax regulations which may differ from U.S. GAAP. Distributions that exceed earnings and profits for tax purposes are reported as return of capital.
Investment Transactions and Investment Income:
Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. The Trust determines the gain or loss realized from investment transactions on the basis of identified cost. Dividend income, if any, is recognized on the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums is recognized on an accrual basis using the effective yield method.

5. CREATION AND REDEMPTION TRANSACTIONS
There were an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest (without par value) authorized by the Trust. Individual shares of the Funds may only be purchased and sold at market prices on the Exchange through a broker-dealer. Such transactions may be subject to customary commission rates imposed by the broker-dealer, and market prices for the Funds’ shares may be at, above or below its NAV depending on the premium or discount at which the Funds’ shares trade.
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
The Funds issue and redeem shares on a continuous basis at NAV only in blocks of 25,000 shares except NOCT, which issues and redeems in blocks of 35,000 shares, called “Creation Units.” Creation Units are issued and redeemed principally for cash. Once created, shares generally trade in the secondary market at market prices that change throughout the day in amounts less than a Creation Unit. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares are not redeemable securities of the Funds. Shares of the Funds may only be purchased or redeemed by certain financial institutions (“Authorized Participants”). An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker-dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a DTC participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with the Distributor. A transaction fee is applicable to each transaction regardless of the number of units purchased or sold in the transaction. All the Funds, excluding TFJL and TBJL, assess investors a transaction fee of $250 plus 0.05% of the value of the transaction on creations and redemptions (e.g. variable fees) of the respective Fund. TFJL and TBJL assess investors a transaction fee of $500 of the value of the transaction on creations and redemptions. Each Fund, subject to approval by the Board of Trustees, may adjust transaction fees from time to time based upon actual experience. Variable fees received by the Funds, if any, are disclosed as Transaction Fees on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. Most retail investors do not qualify as Authorized Participants nor have the resources to buy and sell whole Creation Units. Therefore, they are unable to purchase or redeem the shares directly from the Funds. Rather, most retail investors may purchase shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker and are subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees.

7. COVID-19
The recent global outbreak of COVID-19 has disrupted economic markets and the prolonged economic impact is uncertain. The operational and financial performance of the issuers of securities in which the Funds invest depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, and such uncertainty may in turn impact the value of the Funds’ investments.
8. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

Board Considerations Regarding Approval of Investment Management Agreement (Unaudited)
BOARD CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT AND INVESTMENT SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT FOR THE FOLLOWING INNOVATOR FUNDS:
INNOVATOR MSCI EAFE POWER BUFFER ETF – APRIL
INNOVATOR MSCI EMERGING MARKETS POWER BUFFER ETF – APRIL
At a quarterly in-person Board meeting held on June 27, 2019, the Trust’s Board considered approval of the Advisory Agreement with Innovator Capital Management, LLC (the “Adviser”), on behalf of the Innovator MSCI EAFE Power Buffer ETF – April and Innovator MSCI Emerging Markets Power Buffer ETF - April (the “Funds”), and the Sub-Advisory Agreement among the Trust, on behalf of the Funds, the Adviser and Milliman Financial Risk Management LLC (the “Sub- Adviser”), for an initial two-year term. The Board determined that the agreements were in the best interests of the Funds in light of the extent and quality of the services expected to be provided and such other matters as the Board considered to be relevant in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment.
To reach this determination, the Board considered its duties under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as well as under the general principles of state law in reviewing and approving advisory contracts; the requirements of the 1940 Act in such matters; the fiduciary duty of investment advisers with respect to advisory agreements and compensation; the standards used by courts in determining whether investment company boards have fulfilled their duties; and the factors to be considered by the Board in voting on such agreements. To assist the Board in its evaluation of the agreements, the Independent Trustees received a separate report from each of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser in advance of the Meeting responding to a request for information provided on behalf of the Independent Trustees that, among other things, outlined the services to be provided by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser to the Funds (including the relevant personnel responsible for these services and their experience); the proposed unitary fee rate payable by each Fund as compared to fees charged to peer groups of the Funds and as compared to fees charged to other clients of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, including other ETFs managed by the Adviser and the Sub- Adviser; the estimated expenses of the Funds as compared to expense ratios of the funds in the respective Fund’s peer group; the nature of the expenses to be incurred in providing services to the Funds and the potential for economies of scale, if any; financial data on the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser; any fall-out benefits accruing to the Adviser or the Sub-Adviser; and information on the Adviser’s and the Sub-Adviser’s compliance programs. The Independent Trustees also met separately with their Independent Counsel to discuss the information provided by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser. The Board applied its business judgment to determine whether the arrangements between the Trust and the Adviser and among the Trust, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser are reasonable business arrangements from each Fund’s perspective as well as from the perspective of each Fund’s shareholders.
Board Considerations Regarding Approval of Investment Management Agreement (Unaudited) (Continued)
In evaluating whether to approve the agreements, the Board applied its business judgment and considered the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser and Milliman pursuant to the agreements. With respect to the investment management agreement, the Board considered that the Adviser will be responsible for the overall management and administration of the Funds and reviewed all of the services to be provided by the Adviser to the Funds, including oversight of Milliman, as well as the background and experience of the persons responsible for such services. The Board noted that the Adviser will oversee Milliman’s day-to-day management of each of the Fund’s investments, including portfolio risk monitoring and performance review. In reviewing the services to be provided, the Board noted the compliance program that had been developed by the Adviser included an adequate program for monitoring the Adviser’s, Milliman’s and each Fund’s compliance with the 1940 Act, as well as each Fund’s compliance with its investment objective and policies. With respect to the sub-advisory agreement, the Board reviewed the materials provided by Milliman and noted the background and experience of Milliman’s portfolio management team and Milliman’s investment style. In light of the information presented and the considerations made, the Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided to the Funds by the Adviser and Milliman under the agreements were expected to be satisfactory.
Since the Funds had yet to commence investment operations, the Board could not consider the historical investment performance of the Funds.
The Board considered the proposed unitary fee rate payable by each Fund under the investment management agreement for the services to be provided. The Board noted that, under the unitary fee arrangement, the Innovator MSCI EAFE Power Buffer ETF – April would pay the Adviser a unitary fee equal to an annual rate of 0.85% of its average daily net assets and the Innovator MSCI Emerging Markets Power Buffer ETF - April would pay the Adviser a unitary fee equal to an annual rate of 0.89% of its average daily net assets . The Board considered that, from the unitary fee for each of the Funds, the Adviser would pay Milliman an annual sub-advisory fee equal to 0.12% on the Fund assets under management.
The Board noted that the Adviser would be responsible for the Funds’ expenses, including the cost of transfer agency, custody, fund administration, legal, audit and other services and license fees (if any), but excluding the fee payment under the investment management agreement, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and other expenses connected with the execution of portfolio transactions, and extraordinary expenses. The Board received and reviewed information for the Funds showing the advisory fee rates and expense ratios of the funds comprising of each Fund’s peer group, as well as advisory fee rates charged by the Adviser and Milliman to other funds (including ETFs) and non-fund clients, as applicable. In light of the information considered and the nature, extent and quality of the services expected to be provided to the Funds under the agreements, the Board determined that the proposed unitary fee for each of the Funds, including the fee rate to be paid by the Adviser to Milliman from the unitary fee, was fair.
Board Considerations Regarding Approval of Investment Management Agreement (Unaudited) (Continued)
The Board noted that the proposed unitary fee for each of the Funds were structured to pass the benefits of any economies of scale on to shareholders as the respective Fund’s assets grow. The Board noted that any reduction in fixed costs associated with the management of the respective Fund would benefit the Adviser and Milliman, but that the unitary fee structure provides a level of certainty in expenses for each of the Funds. The Board noted that the Adviser is continuing to invest in personnel and infrastructure for the Innovator fund complex.
Because the Funds have not yet commenced operations and the actual asset base of the Funds have not yet been determined, the Board noted that there was no historical profitability information with respect to the Funds to be reviewed. The Board noted that it would review profitability information in connection with subsequent renewals of the agreements. The Board also noted that, as a startup, the Adviser will likely have little to no profitability in the first few years of the Funds’ operation.
The Board considered potential “fall-out” or ancillary benefits anticipated to be received by the Adviser and Milliman. The Board concluded that the character and amount of potential fall-out benefits to the Adviser and Milliman were consistent with the types of benefits generally derived by investment managers and sub-advisers to funds.
Based on all of the information considered and the conclusions reached, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously determined that the terms of the agreements are fair and that the approval of the agreements is in the best interests of the Funds. No single factor was determinative in the Board’s analysis.

Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited)
Dear Valued Shareholders,
The following shareholder letter covers the period ended April 30, 2021.
What a difference a year makes. This time last year, the stock market was struggling to get out of a bear market. Millions of Americans were losing their jobs. The country was in lockdown due to the pandemic, and people had to wear masks in public at all times. The outlook for the economy was dire and the nation was sorely divided over the presidential election.
Today, the severe impact of Covid is fading away. The stock market has not only recovered but has soared to new heights. The economy has rebounded, growing over the last three quarters at its fastest pace in 70 years. And there was a peaceful, albeit slightly extended, transition of power in the White House.
Life is getting back to normal – of a sort – even if there are longer-lasting changes to the post-Covid world.
In 2020, we were pleased to see that Innovator ETFs performed true to design by mitigating the declines of a bear market. Thank you for staying with us as market uncertainty tested the resiliency of our ETFs.
Looking ahead, we see the potential of a lower-return environment, signaled by historically high equity market valuations and continued low bond yields. Our Defined Outcome ETFs seek to continue to buffer client portfolios on the downside while letting them stay invested in equities.
This past six months ended April 30 saw our S&P 500 Buffer ETFs helped dampen volatility while providing upside participation in the market, performing exactly as they were designed. Volatility is a statistical measure of the dispersion of returns for a given security or market index. Clients of buffered products benefited from significantly less volatility and lower drawdowns which we believe offers a compelling alternative to moving investment to cash and foregoing potential gains.
With higher volatility potentially ahead in a mature bull market, we believe more than ever that our Defined Outcome ETFs can play an important part in client portfolios for the long run.
Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited) (Continued)
As always, all of us at Innovator thank you for your patronage. We will continue to work hard to earn your trust and support.
Looking forward to even better times ahead,
Bruce Bond
Chief Executive Officer
The views in this report were those of the Fund’s CEO as of April 30, 2021 and may not reflect his views on the date that this report is first published or anytime thereafter. These views are intended to assist shareholders in understanding their investments and do not constitute investment advice.
The Funds are designed to provide point-to-point exposure to the price return of a reference asset via a basket of Flex Options over a one year outcome period. As a result, the ETFs are not expected to move directly in line with the reference asset during the interim period. The funds have characteristics unlike other traditional investment products and may not be suitable for all investors. Please see "investor suitability" in the prospectus.
Investing involves risks. Loss of principal is possible. The Funds face numerous market trading risks, including active markets risk, authorized participation concentration risk, buffered loss risk, cap change risk, capped upside return risk, correlation risk, liquidity risk, management risk, market maker risk, market risk, non-diversification risk, operation risk, options risk, trading issues risk, upside participation risk and valuation risk. For a detail list of fund risks see the prospectus.
Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited) (Continued)
FLEX Options Risk The Funds will utilize FLEX Options issued and guaranteed for settlement by the Options Clearing Corporation (OCC). In the unlikely event that the OCC becomes insolvent or is otherwise unable to meet its settlement obligations, the Funds could suffer significant losses. Additionally, FLEX Options may be less liquid than standard options. In a less liquid market for the FLEX Options, the Funds may have difficulty closing out certain FLEX Options positions at desired times and prices.
Fund shareholders are subject to an upside return cap (Cap) that represents the maximum percentage return an investor can achieve from an investment in the funds' for the Outcome Period, before fees and expenses. If the Outcome Period has begun and the Fund has increased in value to a level near to the Cap, an investor purchasing at that price has little or no ability to achieve gains but remains vulnerable to downside risks. Additionally, the Cap may rise or fall from one Outcome Period to the next. The Cap, and the Fund's position relative to it, should be considered before investing in the Fund. The Funds' website, www.innovatoretfs.com, provides important Fund information as well information relating to the potential outcomes of an investment in a Fund on a daily basis.
Some of the Funds seek to provide a buffer or floor level against Index losses during the Outcome Period; however, the Funds only seek to provide that respective level of buffer or floor level for those shareholders that hold shares for the entire Outcome Period. The floor in this context is the maximum loss percentage sought over the Outcome Period. Depending upon market conditions at the time of purchase, a shareholder that purchases shares after the Outcome Period has begun may also lose their entire investment. For instance, if the Outcome Period has begun and the Fund has decreased in value beyond any pre-determined buffer or floor, an investor purchasing shares at that price may not benefit from the buffer or floor, as applicable. Similarly, if the Outcome Period has begun and the Fund has increased in value, an investor purchasing shares at that price may not benefit from the buffer or floor until the Fund’s value has decreased to its value at the commencement of the Outcome Period.
This material must be preceded by or accompanied with a prospectus. The Funds' investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses should be considered carefully before investing. The prospectus contains this and other important information, and it may be obtained at innovatoretfs.com. Read it carefully before investing.

Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 equals 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the applicable line under the heading titled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The following table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which are not the Funds’ actual returns. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds with other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Expense Example
For the Period Ended April 30, 2021 (Unaudited) (Continued)
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as brokerage commissions on the purchase and sale of Fund shares with respect to the Funds. Therefore, the table below is useful in comparing the ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs could have been higher.

The Funds are exchange traded funds that offer one class of shares, do not charge a sales load, do not have a redemption fee and currently do not charge a 12b–1 fee to their shareholders. The Funds list and principally trade their shares on Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (“Cboe BZX” or the “Exchange”).
Each Fund employs a specific “defined outcome strategy.” Defined outcome strategies generally seek to produce pre-determined investment outcomes based upon the performance of an index or one or more underlying securities. The Funds’ pre-determined outcomes (“Outcomes”) are based upon the price performance of a benchmark index or one or more underlying exchange-traded fund (the “Benchmark”) over a period of approximately one year or another predetermined period (“Outcome Period”). The Funds’ investment strategy provides shareholders with participation in any gains experienced by the applicable Benchmark over the course of the Outcome Period, subject to a cap on upside returns (a “Cap”), and, if applicable, a predetermined buffer (a “Buffer”) against Benchmark losses for the Outcome Period. These defined outcomes are managed by purchasing and selling call and put FLexible EXchange Options (“FLEX Options”) to create layers within a Fund’s portfolio. Each Fund’s FLEX Option has the same reference asset and expiration date, with uniquely selected strike prices for the Fund’s Outcome Period. Due to the customizable nature of FLEX Options that allows for specific strike prices to be selected for the same reference asset and expiration date, when each of the FLEX Options expire on the last day of the Outcome Period, the Funds are expected to achieve a Benchmark investment return with the applicable Buffer and Cap investment parameters.
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
The Funds are investment companies and accordingly follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 “Financial Services — Investment Companies”.
2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
Valuation:
The net asset values (“NAV”) of the Funds are determined as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE (normally 4:00 p.m. ET). If the NYSE closes early on a valuation day, the Funds shall determine NAV as of that time.
Portfolio securities generally shall be valued utilizing prices provided by independent pricing services. The Trust’s Pricing Committee (“Pricing Committee”) is responsible for establishing valuation of portfolio securities and other instruments held by the Funds in accordance with the Trust’s valuation procedures.
Common stocks, preferred stocks and other equity securities listed on any national or foreign exchange (excluding the NASDAQ National Market (“NASDAQ”) and the London Stock Exchange Alternative Investment Market (“AIM”)) are generally valued at the last sale price on the exchange on which they are principally traded or, for NASDAQ and AIM securities, the official closing price. Securities traded on more than one securities exchange are valued at the last sale price or official closing price, as applicable, at the close of the exchange representing the principal market for such securities. Securities traded in the over–the–counter market are valued at the mean of the bid and the asked price, if available, and otherwise at their closing bid price. Redeemable securities issued by open–end investment companies shall be valued at the investment company’s applicable net asset value, with the exception of exchange–traded open–end investment companies which are priced as equity securities. Fixed income securities, swaps, currency–, credit– and commodity–linked notes, and other similar instruments will be valued using a pricing service. Fixed income securities having a remaining maturity of 60 days or less when purchased will be valued at cost adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, provided the Pricing Committee has determined that the use of amortized cost is an appropriate reflection of fair value given market and issuer specific conditions existing at the time of the determination. Deposit accounts are valued at acquisition cost. Foreign securities and other assets denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate of such currencies against the U.S. dollar as provided by the pricing service. All assets denominated in foreign currencies will be converted into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect at the time of valuation. Restricted securities (with the exception of Rule 144A Securities for which market quotations are available) will normally be valued at fair value as determined by the Pricing Committee.
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
Exchange–traded option contracts (other than FLexible EXchange Option or “FLEX Option” contracts) will be valued at the closing price in the market where such contracts are principally traded. If no closing price is available, they will be fair valued at the mean of their most recent bid and asked price, if available, and otherwise at their closing bid price. OTC options are fair valued at the mean of the most recent bid and asked price, if available, and otherwise at their closing bid price. FLEX Options will be valued at a model–based price provided by the exchange on which the option is traded at the official close of that exchange’s trading date. If the exchange on which the option is traded is unable to provide a model price, FLEX Options prices will be provided by backup provider Super Derivatives. Otherwise, the value of a FLEX Option will be determined by the Pricing Committee in accordance with the Trust’s valuation procedures.
If no quotation can be obtained from a pricing service, then the Pricing Committee will then attempt to obtain one or more broker quotes for the security. If no quotation is available from either a pricing service or one or more brokers or if the Pricing Committee has reason to question the reliability or accuracy of a quotation supplied or the use of amortized cost, the value of any portfolio security held by the Funds for which reliable market quotations are not readily available will be determined by the Pricing Committee in a manner that most appropriately reflects fair market value of the security on the valuation date. The use of a fair valuation method may be appropriate if, for example: (i) market quotations do not accurately reflect fair value of an investment; (ii) an investment’s value has been materially affected by events occurring after the close of the exchange or market on which the investment is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market); (iii) a trading halt closes an exchange or market early; or (iv) other events result in an exchange or market delaying its normal close.

Fair Valuation Measurement:
FASB established a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under ASC, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), various inputs are used in determining the value of the Funds’ investments. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The three Levels of inputs of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:
| • | Level 1 – | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access. |
| • | Level 2 – | Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data. |
| • | Level 3 – | Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Funds’ own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available. |
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgement. Accordingly, the degree of judgement exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Option Contracts:
In general, an option contract is an agreement between a buyer and seller that gives the purchaser of the option the right to buy or sell a particular asset at a specified future date at an agreed upon price (commonly known as the “strike price”).
The Funds invest primarily in FLEX Option contracts. FLEX Options are customized option contracts that trade on an exchange but provide investors with the ability to customize key contract terms like strike price, style and expiration date while achieving price discovery in competitive, transparent auctions markets and avoiding the counterparty exposure of over–the–counter options positions. Like traditional exchange–traded options, FLEX Options are guaranteed for settlement by the OCC, a market clearinghouse that guarantees performance by counterparties to certain derivatives contracts. The FLEX Options in which the Funds will invest are all European style options (options that are exercisable only on the expiration date). The FLEX Options are listed on the Chicago Board Options Exchange.
The Funds will purchase and sell call and put FLEX Options. In general, put options give the holder (i.e., the buyer) the right to sell an asset (or deliver the cash value of the index, in case of an index put option) and the seller (i.e., the writer) of the put has the obligation to buy the asset (or receive cash value of the index, in case of an index put option) at a certain defined price. Call options give the holder (i.e., the buyer) the right to buy an asset (or receive cash value of the index, in case of an index call option) and the seller (i.e., the writer) the obligation to sell the asset (or deliver cash value of the index, in case of an index call option) at a certain defined price.
When the Funds purchase an option, an amount equal to the premium paid by the Funds are recorded as an investment and is subsequently adjusted to the current value of the option purchased. If an option expires on the stipulated expiration date or if the Funds enter into a closing sale transaction, a gain or loss is realized. If a call option is exercised, the cost of the security acquired is increased by the premium paid for the call. If a put option is exercised, a gain or loss is realized from the sale of the underlying security, and the proceeds from such sale are decreased by the premium originally paid. Purchased options are non-income producing securities.
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
When the Funds write an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Funds are recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current value of the option written. Premiums received from writing options that expire unexercised are treated by the Funds on the expiration date as realized gain from written options. The difference between the premium and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain, or if the premium is less than the amount paid for the closing purchase transaction, as a realized loss. If a call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security in determining whether the Funds have realized a gain or loss. If a put option is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the Funds. The Funds, as writers of an option, bear the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option.
All of the FLEX Option contracts held by the Funds are fully funded and cash settled, therefore balance sheet offsetting under ASC 210 does not apply.
The Funds bear the risk that the OCC will be unable or unwilling to perform its obligations under the FLEX Options contracts. In the unlikely event that the OCC becomes insolvent or is otherwise unable to meet its settlement obligations, the Funds could suffer significant losses. Additionally, FLEX Options may be less liquid than certain other securities such as standardized options. In less liquid market for the FLEX Options, the Funds may have difficulty closing out certain FLEX Options positions at desired times and prices. The Funds may experience substantial downside from specific FLEX Option positions and certain FLEX Option positions may expire worthless. The value of the underlying FLEX Options will be affected by, among others, changes in the value of the exchange, changes in interest rates, changes in the actual and implied volatility of the Index and the remaining time to until the FLEX Options expire. The value of the FLEX Options does not increase or decrease at the same rate as the level of the Index (although they generally move in the same direction). However, as a FLEX Option approaches its expiration date, its value typically increasingly moves with the value of the Index.

Use of Estimates:
In preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting year or period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Guarantees and Indemnifications:
In the normal course of business, the Trust may enter into a contract with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims against the Trust that have not yet occurred. Based on experience, the Trust expects the risk of loss to be remote.
Tax Information:
The Funds are treated as separate entities for federal income tax purposes. The Funds intend to qualify as regulated investment companies (“RICs”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”). To qualify and remain eligible for the special tax treatment accorded to RICs, the Funds must meet certain annual income and quarterly asset diversification requirements and must distribute annually at least 90% of the sum of (i) its investment company taxable income (which includes dividends, interest and net short-term capital gains) and (ii) certain net tax-exempt income, if any. If so qualified, the Funds will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent the Funds distribute substantially all of their net investment income and capital gains to shareholders.
Management evaluates the Funds’ tax positions to determine if the tax positions taken meet the minimum recognition threshold in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken for the purposes of measuring and recognizing tax liabilities in the financial statements. Tax benefits associated with an uncertain tax position can be recognized only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by taxing authorities. Interest and penalties related to income taxes would be recorded as tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the period ended April 30, 2021, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Funds’ federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction. As of April 30, 2021, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. As of April 30, 2021, the Funds have no examinations in progress and management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Funds are subject to examination by U.S. Federal tax authorities for all tax years since inception.

U.S. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be reclassified between distributable earnings/(accumulated deficit) and additional paid-in capital. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. For the year or period ended October 31, 2020, the Funds made the following permanent book-to-tax reclassifications due to different treatment of redemptions for tax purposes:

Distributions to Shareholders:
Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex–dividend date. The Funds intend to pay out dividends from their net investment income, if any, annually. Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, will be declared and paid at least annually by the Funds. The Funds may periodically make reclassifications among certain of its capital accounts as a result of the recognition and characterization of certain income and capital gain distributions determined annually in accordance with federal tax regulations which may differ from U.S. GAAP. Distributions that exceed earnings and profits for tax purposes are reported as a return of capital.
Investment Transactions and Investment Income:
Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. The Trust determines the gain or loss realized from investment transactions on the basis of identified cost.

5. | CREATION AND REDEMPTION TRANSACTIONS |
There were an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest (without par value) authorized by the Trust. Individual shares of the Funds may only be purchased and sold at market prices on the Exchange through a broker-dealer. Such transactions may be subject to customary commission rates imposed by the broker-dealer, and market prices for the Funds’ shares may be at, above or below its NAV depending on the premium or discount at which the Funds’ shares trade.
The Funds issue and redeem shares on a continuous basis at NAV only in blocks of 25,000 shares, called “Creation Units.” Creation Units are issued and redeemed principally for cash. Once created, shares generally trade in the secondary market at market prices that change throughout the day in amounts less than a Creation Unit. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares are not redeemable securities of the Funds. Shares of the Funds may only be purchased or redeemed by certain financial institutions (“Authorized Participants”). An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker–dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a DTC participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with the Distributor. A transaction fee is applicable to each transaction regardless of the number of units purchased or sold in the transaction. The Funds assess investors a transaction fee of $250 plus 0.05% of the value of the transaction on creations and redemptions (e.g. variable fees) of the respective Fund. Each Fund, subject to approval by the Board of Trustees, may adjust transaction fees from time to time based upon actual experience. Variable fees received by the Funds, if any, are disclosed on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. Most retail investors do not qualify as Authorized Participants nor have the resources to buy and sell whole Creation Units. Therefore, they are unable to purchase or redeem the shares directly from the Funds. Rather, most retail investors may purchase shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker and are subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
The recent global outbreak of COVID-19 has disrupted economic markets and the prolonged economic impact is uncertain. The operational and financial performance of the issuers of securities in which the Funds invest depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, and such uncertainty may in turn impact the value of the Funds’ investments.
Management has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events of the Funds through the date of the financial statements were issued, and has determined that there were no subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.

Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited)
Dear Valued Shareholders,
The following shareholder letter covers the period ended April 30, 2021.
What a difference a year makes. This time last year, the stock market was struggling to get out of a bear market. Millions of Americans were losing their jobs. The country was in lockdown due to the pandemic, and people had to wear masks in public at all times. The outlook for the economy was dire and the nation was sorely divided over the presidential election.
Today, the severe impact of Covid is fading away. The stock market has not only recovered but has soared to new heights. The economy has rebounded, growing over the last three quarters at its fastest pace in 70 years. And there was a peaceful, albeit slightly extended, transition of power in the White House.
Life is getting back to normal – of a sort – even if there are longer-lasting changes to the post-Covid world.
Innovator Investor’s Business Daily (IBD) ETFs and Innovator Loup Frontier Tech ETF
We are pleased to report that most of our IBD ETFs and the Loup ETF outperformed the broad market in the six months ended April 30. In particular, the IBD Breakout Opportunities ETF (BOUT) outperformed the S&P over the six-month period. This ETF provides exposure to the IBD Breakout Stocks Index, which identifies stocks poised to experience a period of sustained price growth beyond their recent technical “resistance level.”
The Loup ETF (LOUP), also outperformed the Nasdaq’s returns over the six-month period. The ETF provides exposure to the Loup Frontier Tech Index, which tracks the performance of cutting-edge tech companies in the fields of AI, robotics, autonomous vehicles, virtual reality, and other areas. The index was created by Loup Ventures, a seed-stage venture capital firm founded by tech guru Gene Munster.
We are grateful for our successful partnerships with IBD, Loup Ventures, and Gene.
Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited) (Continued)
As always, all of us at Innovator thank you for your patronage. We will continue to work hard to earn your trust and support.
Looking forward to even better times ahead,
Bruce Bond
Chief Executive Officer
The views in this report were those of the Fund’s CEO as of April 30, 2021 and may not reflect his views on the date that this report is first published or anytime thereafter. These views are intended to assist shareholders in understanding their investments and do not constitute investment advice.
Investing involves risks. Principal loss is possible. An ETF that concentrates its investments in the securities of a particular industry, market, sector, or geographic area may be more volatile than a fund that invests in a broader range of industries. Additionally, the Fund may invest in securities that have additional risks. Foreign companies can be more volatile, less liquid, and subject to the risk of currency fluctuations. This risk is greater for emerging markets. Small- and mid-cap companies can have limited liquidity and greater volatility than large-cap companies.
Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited) (Continued)
Information Technology Companies Risk. Information technology companies face intense competition, both domestically and internationally, which may have an adverse effect on profit margins. Like other technology companies, information technology companies may have limited product lines, markets, financial resources or personnel. The products of information technology companies may face obsolescence due to rapid technological developments, frequent new product introduction, unpredictable changes in growth rates and competition for the services of qualified personnel. Companies in the information technology sector are heavily dependent on patent and intellectual property rights. The loss or impairment of these rights may adversely affect the profitability of these companies.
This material must be accompanied by a prospectus. Read carefully before investing.

The line graph and performance table do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder may pay on fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. Total return calculations reflect the effect of the Advisor’s expense limitation agreement for the Fund. Returns shown for the Fund, S&P 500® Index and IBD® 50 Index include the reinvestment of all dividends, if any.
The S&P 500® Index is an unmanaged, capitalization–weighted index generally representative of the U.S. market for large capitalization stocks.
The IBD® 50 Index is a weekly, rule–based, computer–generated stock index compiled and published by Investor’s Business Daily® that seeks to identify the current top 50 growth stocks.
The Fund’s portfolio holdings may differ significantly from the securities held in the relevant index and, unlike an exchange–traded fund, the performance of an unmanaged index does not reflect deductions for transaction costs, taxes, management fees or other expenses.

Expense Example
For the Period Ended April 30, 2021 (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) ongoing costs, including management fees, and other Fund expenses; and (2) transaction costs, including brokerage commissions on the purchase and sale of Fund shares. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from November 1, 2020 to April 30, 2021 for each Fund.
Actual Expenses
The first line under each Fund in the following table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 equals 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the applicable line under the heading titled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line under each Fund in the following table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which are not the Funds’ actual returns. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds with other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as brokerage commissions on the purchase and sale of Fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing the ongoing Fund costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs could have been higher.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
The Funds are exchange traded funds that offer one class of shares, do not charge a sales load, do not have a redemption fee and currently do not charge a 12b–1 fee to their shareholders. The Funds list and principally trade their shares on NYSE Arca, Inc. (“NYSE” or the “Exchange”).
The Funds are investment companies and accordingly follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 “Financial Services — Investment Companies”.
2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
Valuation:
The net asset values (“NAV”) of the Funds are determined as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE (normally 4:00 p.m. ET). If the NYSE closes early on a valuation day, the Funds shall determine NAV as of that time.
Portfolio securities generally shall be valued utilizing prices provided by independent pricing services. The Trust’s Pricing Committee (“Pricing Committee”) is responsible for establishing valuation of portfolio securities and other instruments held by the Funds in accordance with the Trust’s valuation procedures.
Common stocks, preferred stocks, exchange traded funds and other equity securities listed on any national or foreign exchange (excluding the NASDAQ National Market (“NASDAQ”) and the London Stock Exchange Alternative Investment Market (“AIM”)) are generally valued at the last sale price on the exchange on which they are principally traded or, for NASDAQ and AIM securities, the official closing price. Securities traded on more than one securities exchange are valued at the last sale price or official closing price, as applicable, at the close of the exchange representing the principal market for such securities. Securities traded in the over–the–counter market are valued at the mean of the bid and the asked price, if available, and otherwise at their closing bid price. Redeemable securities issued by open–end investment companies shall be valued at the investment company’s applicable net asset value, with the exception of exchange–traded open–end investment companies which are priced as equity securities. Units of Mount Vernon Liquid Assets Portfolio, LLC are not traded on an exchange and are valued at the investment company’s net asset value per share as provided by the underlying fund’s administrator. Fixed income securities, swaps, currency–, credit– and commodity–linked notes, and other similar instruments will be valued using a pricing service. Fixed income securities having a remaining maturity of 60 days or less when purchased will be valued at cost adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, provided the Pricing Committee has determined that the use of amortized cost is an appropriate reflection of fair value given market and issuer specific conditions existing at the time of the determination. Deposit accounts are valued at acquisition cost. Foreign securities and other assets denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate of such currencies against the U.S. dollar as provided by the pricing service. All assets denominated in foreign currencies will be converted into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect at the time of valuation. Restricted securities (with the exception of Rule 144A Securities for which market quotations are available) will normally be valued at fair value as determined by the Pricing Committee.
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
If no quotation can be obtained from a pricing service, then the Pricing Committee will then attempt to obtain one or more broker quotes for the security. If no quotation is available from either a pricing service or one or more brokers or if the Pricing Committee has reason to question the reliability or accuracy of a quotation supplied or the use of amortized cost, the value of any portfolio security held by the Funds for which reliable market quotations are not readily available will be determined by the Pricing Committee in a manner that most appropriately reflects fair market value of the security on the valuation date. The use of a fair valuation method may be appropriate if, for example: (i) market quotations do not accurately reflect fair value of an investment; (ii) an investment’s value has been materially affected by events occurring after the close of the exchange or market on which the investment is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market); (iii) a trading halt closes an exchange or market early; or (iv) other events result in an exchange or market delaying its normal close.
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
Fair Valuation Measurement:
FASB established a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under ASC, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), various inputs are used in determining the value of the Funds’ investments. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The three Levels of inputs of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:
| • | Level 1 – | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access. |
| • | Level 2 – | Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data. |
| • | Level 3 – | Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Funds’ own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available. |
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgement. Accordingly, the degree of judgement exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Use of Estimates:
In preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Guarantees and Indemnifications:
In the normal course of business, the Trust may enter into a contract with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims against the Trust that have not yet occurred. Based on experience, the Trust expects the risk of loss to be remote.
Tax Information:
The Funds are treated as separate entities for federal income tax purposes. The Funds intend to qualify as regulated investment companies (“RICs”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”). To qualify and remain eligible for the special tax treatment accorded to RICs, the Funds must meet certain annual income and quarterly asset diversification requirements and must distribute annually at least 90% of the sum of (i) its investment company taxable income (which includes dividends, interest and net short–term capital gains) and (ii) certain net tax–exempt income, if any. If so qualified, the Funds will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent the Funds distribute substantially all of their net investment income and capital gains to shareholders.
Management evaluates the Funds’ tax positions to determine if the tax positions taken meet the minimum recognition threshold in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken for the purposes of measuring and recognizing tax liabilities in the financial statements. Tax benefits associated with an uncertain tax position can be recognized only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by taxing authorities. Interest and penalties related to income taxes would be recorded as tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the period ended April 30, 2021, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Funds’ federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction. As of April 30, 2021, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. As of April 30, 2021, the Funds have no examinations in progress and management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Funds are subject to examination by U.S. Federal tax authorities for all tax years since the fiscal year ended November 30, 2016, as applicable.
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
U.S. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be reclassified between distributable earnings/(accumulated deficit) and additional paid–in capital.
These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. For the year ended October 31, 2020, the Funds made the following permanent book–to–tax reclassifications primarily related to net operating loss forfeiture and redemptions in kind:
| | Distributable Earnings/ | | | Paid-In | |
| | (Accumulated Deficit) | | �� | Capital | |
FFTY | | $ | (57,770,837 | ) | | $ | 57,770,837 | |
LDRS | | | (1,308,956 | ) | | | 1,308,956 | |
BOUT | | | (965,030 | ) | | | 965,030 | |
LOUP | | | (2,930,089 | ) | | | 2,930,089 | |
Distributions to Shareholders:
Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex–dividend date. FFTY, BOUT and LOUP intend to pay out dividends from their net investment income, if any, annually. LDRS intends to pay out dividends from its net investment income, if any, quarterly. Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, will be declared and paid at least annually by the Funds. The Funds may periodically make reclassifications among certain of its capital accounts as a result of the recognition and characterization of certain income and capital gain distributions determined annually in accordance with federal tax regulations which may differ from U.S. GAAP. Distributions that exceed earnings and profits for tax purposes are reported as a return of capital.
Investment Transactions and Investment Income:
Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. The Trust determines the gain or loss realized from investment transactions on the basis of identified cost. Dividend income, if any, is recognized on the ex–dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Funds are informed of the ex–dividend dates. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums is recognized on an accrual basis using the effective yield method.
Distributions received from investments in master limited partnerships (“MLPs”), closed–end funds, real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) and royalty trusts are comprised of ordinary income, capital gains and return of capital. For financial statement purposes, estimates are used to characterize these distributions received as return of capital, capital gains or ordinary income. Such estimates are based on historical information available from each MLP, closed–end fund, REIT or royalty trust and other industry sources. These estimates may subsequently be revised and reflected on the Form 1099 received by shareholders based on information received for the security after its tax reporting periods are concluded, as the actual character of these distributions is not known until after the fiscal year end. The distributions received from MLPs, REITs, closed–end funds, and royalty trust securities that have been classified as income and capital gains are included in dividend income and net realized gain/(loss) on investments, respectively, on the Statements of Operations. The distributions received that are classified as return of capital reduce the cost of investments on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
Purchases and sales of investments and dividend and interest income are translated into U.S. dollars using the spot market rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such translations. The gain or loss resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates is included with net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments, as appropriate. Foreign securities and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with those of domestic origin. Foreign securities are recorded in the financial statements after translation to U.S. dollars based on the applicable exchange rate at the end of the period. The Funds report certain foreign currency–related transactions as components of realized gains or losses for financial reporting purposes, whereas such components are treated as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes.
3. | INVESTMENT ADVISOR AND OTHER AFFILIATES |
Innovator Capital Management, LLC (the “Adviser”) acts as investment adviser to the Funds pursuant to investment advisory agreements between the Trust and the Adviser with respect to the Funds (“Advisory Agreements”) and, pursuant to the Advisory Agreements, is responsible for the day–to–day management of the Funds.
Pursuant to an investment advisory agreement between the Trust and the Adviser with respect to FFTY, FFTY pays monthly the Adviser a management fee calculated daily based on the average daily net assets of the Fund at the annual rate of 0.70%.
Pursuant to an investment advisory agreement between the Trust and the Adviser with respect to LDRS, BOUT and LOUP, LDRS pays monthly the Adviser a unitary fee calculated daily based on the average daily net assets of the Fund at the annual rate of 0.60%, BOUT pays monthly the Adviser a unitary fee calculated daily based on the average daily net assets of the Fund at the annual rate of 0.80% and LOUP pays monthly the Adviser a unitary fee calculated daily based on the average daily net assets of the Fund at the annual rate of 0.70%. During the term of the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser pays all expenses of LDRS, BOUT and LOUP, including the cost of transfer agency, custody, fund administration, legal, audit, and other services and license fees, except for the fees paid under the Advisory Agreement, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and other expenses connected with the execution of portfolio transactions, distribution and service fees payable pursuant to a Rule 12b–1 plan, if any, and extraordinary expenses.
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
Penserra Capital Management LLC (the “Sub–Adviser”) acts as sub–adviser to the Funds pursuant to a sub–advisory agreement between the Adviser and the Sub–Adviser with respect to the Funds (“Sub–Advisory Agreement”) and, pursuant to the Sub–Advisory Agreement, is responsible for execution of the Sub–Adviser’s strategy for each of the Funds. The Sub–Adviser is responsible for the day–to–day management of the Fund’s portfolio. Pursuant to the Sub–Advisory Agreement between the Adviser and the Sub–Adviser, the Adviser pays the Sub–Adviser a fee, based on the Funds’ average daily net assets, for the services and facilities it provides payable on a monthly basis.
Certain trustees and officers of the Trust are affiliated with the Adviser. Excluding FFTY, Trustee compensation is paid for by the Adviser.
The Trust entered into an Expense Limitation Agreement on behalf of FFTY with the Adviser. Under the terms of the Expense Limitation Agreement with FFTY, the Adviser contractually agreed to waive their advisory fees and/or assume as their own expense, certain expenses otherwise payable by the Fund to the extent necessary to ensure that total annual fund operating expenses (excluding any Rule 12b–1 fees, taxes, interest, brokerage fees, acquired fund fees and expenses, expenses incurred in connection with any merger, reorganization or proxy solicitation, litigation, and other extraordinary expenses) do not exceed 0.80% of average daily net assets of FFTY until August 31, 2021. Pursuant to the terms of the Expense Limitation Agreement, Innovator is entitled to recoup any fees that it waived and/or Fund expenses that it paid for a period of three years following such fee waivers and/or expense payments. The Fund may only make such repayment to the Adviser if, after the recoupment payment has been taken into account, it does not cause the Fund’s expense ratio to exceed either the expense cap in place at the time the expenses were waived or the Fund’s current expense cap. For the period ended April 30, 2021, the Adviser waived $133,953 of their advisory fees for FFTY without recouping any of their previously waived fees. The table below indicates the amount of fees that the Adviser may recoup:
| | Recovery Expiring in*: | |
| | FYE 10/31/2021 | | | FYE 10/31/2022 | | | FYE 10/31/2023 | | | FYE 10/31/2024 | | | Total | |

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
* Recoupment expires on a rolling monthly basis three years following the respective fee waivers. | |

Individual shares of the Funds may only be purchased and sold at market prices on the Exchange through a broker–dealer. Such transactions may be subject to customary commission rates imposed by the broker–dealer, and market prices for the Funds’ shares may be at, above or below its NAV depending on the premium or discount at which the Funds’ shares trade.
The Funds issue and redeem shares on a continuous basis at NAV only in blocks of 50,000 shares, called “Creation Units.” Creation Units are issued and redeemed principally in–kind for securities included in a specified universe. Once created, shares generally trade in the secondary market at market prices that change throughout the day in amounts less than a Creation Unit. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares are not redeemable securities of the Funds. Shares of the Funds may only be purchased or redeemed by certain financial institutions (“Authorized Participants”). An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker–dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a DTC participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with the Distributor. A fixed transaction fee is applicable to each transaction regardless of the number of units purchased or sold in the transaction. FFTY, LDRS and BOUT each charge a $250 transaction fee on creations and redemptions of the respective Fund. LOUP charges a $500 transaction fee on creations and redemptions of the Fund. An additional charge may be imposed with respect to custom order transactions effected outside of the clearing process through a DTC Participant or to the extent that cash is used in lieu of securities to purchase Creation Units through a custom order. Each Fund, subject to approval by the Board of Trustees, may adjust transaction fees from time to time based upon actual experience. Additional charges received by the Funds, if any, are disclosed as Transaction Fees on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. Most retail investors do not qualify as Authorized Participants nor have the resources to buy and sell whole Creation Units. Therefore, they are unable to purchase or redeem the shares directly from the Funds. Rather, most retail investors may purchase shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker and are subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees.
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
The Funds may lend up to 331/3% of the value of the securities in their respective portfolios to brokers, dealers and financial institutions (but not individuals) under terms of participation in a securities lending program administered by the securities lending agent. The Trust has entered into a Securities Lending Agreement (“SLA”) with U.S. Bank, N.A., the Funds’ custodian (the “Agent”). Under the terms of the SLA, the Funds may lend securities to certain broker–dealers and banks in exchange for collateral in the amount of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned or at least 105% of the value of non–U.S. securities loaned, marked to market daily. The collateral can be received in the form of cash collateral and/or non–cash collateral. Non–cash collateral can include U.S. Government Securities and letters of credit. The cash collateral is invested in the Mount Vernon Liquid Assets Portfolio, LLC (“Mount Vernon”), as noted in the Funds’ Schedules of Investments. Mount Vernon seeks to maximize current income to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital and liquidity; and to maintain a stable NAV of $1.00. Mount Vernon has an overnight and continuous maturity. The market value of the loaned securities is determined daily at the close of business of the Funds and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Funds on the next business day. The Funds continue to benefit from interest or dividends on the securities loaned and may also earn a return from the collateral. The Funds pay various fees in connection with the investment of cash collateral. The Funds pay the Agent fees based on the investment income received from securities lending activities. Although risk is mitigated by the collateral, the Funds could experience a delay in recovering their securities and possible loss of income or value if the borrower fails to return them. In the event of a borrower’s material default, the Agent shall take all actions the Agent deems appropriate to liquidate the collateral, purchase replacement securities at the Agents’ expense, or pay the Funds an amount equal to the market value of the loaned securities, subject to certain limitations.
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
As of April 30, 2021, the values of the securities on loan, cash collateral received, and fees and interest were as follows:
| | Value of Securities on Loan | | | Cash Collateral Received | | | Fees and Interest Earned | |
FFTY | | $ | 59,514,546 | | | $ | 60,676,232 | | | $ | 105,802 | |
LDRS | | | 3,101,066 | | | | 3,184,539 | | | | 16,395 | |
BOUT | | | 5,122,041 | | | | 5,352,399 | | | | 875 | |
LOUP | | | 30,054,352 | | | | 31,293,497 | | | | 51,360 | |
Due to the absence of a master netting agreement related to the Funds’ participation in securities lending, no additional offsetting disclosures have been made on behalf of the Funds for the total borrowings listed above.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
The recent global outbreak of COVID-19 has disrupted economic markets and the prolonged economic impact is uncertain. The operational and financial performance of the issuers of securities in which the Funds invest depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, and such uncertainty may in turn impact the value of the Funds’ investments.
Management has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events of the Funds through the date of the financial statements were issued, and has determined that there were no subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.
