Shareholder Letter (unaudited)
Message from the President
Stock and bond markets generally gained ground during the 12-month period ended April 30, 2024, bolstered by better-than-expected economic growth and the prospect of monetary easing in the face of a myriad of macroeconomic and geopolitical challenges.
Throughout the reporting period, interest rates remained at their highest levels in decades in most developed countries, with the U.S. federal funds rate in the 5.25%−5.50% range for most of the period, as central banks struggled to bring inflation under control. In late-2023, the U.S. Federal Reserve began to forecast interest rate cuts in 2024, but delayed action as inflation remained stubbornly high, fluctuating between 3.0% and 3.7%. Nevertheless, despite the increasing cost of capital and tighter lending environment that resulted from sustained high rates, economic growth remained surprisingly robust, supported by high levels of consumer spending, low unemployment and strong corporate earnings. Investors tended to shrug off concerns related to sticky inflation and high interest rates—not to mention the ongoing war in Ukraine, intensifying hostilities in the Middle East and simmering tensions between China and the United States—focusing instead on the positives of continued economic growth and surprisingly strong corporate profits.
The S&P 500® Index, a widely regarded benchmark of U.S. market performance, produced solid gains during the reporting period, reaching record levels in March 2024. A preponderance of the Index’s gains were generated by a relatively small number of growth-oriented, mega-cap stocks in the communication services and information technology sectors that stood to benefit from rapid developments in generative artificial intelligence (“AI”). Value-oriented, interest-rate sensitive and small-capitalization shares lagged by significant margins, although market strength widened late in the reporting period. Most overseas equity markets trailed the U.S. market, as developed international economies experienced relatively low growth rates, and weak economic conditions in China undermined emerging markets.
Bonds produced mixed results. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note hit a high of just under 5% in mid-October 2023, ranging between approximately 3.5% and 4.8% for most of the reporting period. The yield curve remained inverted throughout the year, with the 2-year Treasury yield modestly above the 10-year yield, a pattern often viewed as indicative of an impending economic slowdown. Long-term Treasury bonds declined early in the reporting period amid the prevailing environment of macroeconomic uncertainty and rising interest rates, although they later regained some of the lost ground as interest rates stabilized. Corporate bonds produced slightly stronger returns than Treasury securities, driven by more attractive valuations and income opportunities after years of low yields and tight credit spreads. Among corporates, markets generally rewarded longer duration and lower credit quality as investors sought higher yields, despite the added risks implicit in an uptick in default rates. International bond markets also produced mixed returns, with emerging-markets debt advancing over their developed-markets counterparts.
In the midst of the risks and uncertainties inherent in today’s markets, we remain dedicated to providing you with the disciplined investment tools you have come to expect from New York Life Investments over the years.
Thank you for continuing to place your trust in our team.
Sincerely,
Kirk C. Lehneis
President

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance (unaudited)
IQ MacKay ESG Core Plus Bond ETF
How did IQ MacKay ESG Core Plus Bond ETF perform during the 12 months ended April 30, 2024?
For the 12 months ended April 30, 2024 (the “reporting period”), IQ MacKay ESG Core Plus Bond ETF returned 1.14% at NAV (net asset value) and 1.49% at market price.1 To compare, the ETF’s Benchmark Index, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index2 returned −1.47% for the reporting period.
What factors affected the ETF’s performance during the reporting period?
The ETF outperformed its Benchmark Index, primarily due to relatively strong returns from lower-quality assets, which benefited from declining interest rates and narrowing credit spreads. Relative returns also benefited from positioning within structured credit and security selection among investment-grade corporate bonds, specifically within the banking sector.
During the reporting period, how was the ETF’s performance materially affected by investments in derivatives?
During the reporting period, the ETF used U.S. Treasury futures to hedge its duration,3 a position that detracted slightly from returns.
During the reporting period, were there any market events that materially impacted the ETF’s performance or liquidity?
Although U.S. Treasury yields moved quite dramatically during the reporting period, there was no impact on liquidity.
What was the ETF’s duration strategy during the reporting period?
The ETF maintained a longer duration than that of the Benchmark Index throughout the reporting period. As the reporting period progressed, the position was reduced in size, but still detracted slightly. As of April 30, 2024, the ETF’s duration was 6.1 years, in line with the Benchmark Index.
During the reporting period, which sectors made the strongest contributions to the ETF’s performance and which sectors made the weakest contributions?
The ETF’s positioning in structured credit and high-yield corporates made positive contributions to returns. (Contributions take weightings and total returns into account.) The most significant detractors were U.S. Treasury securities and residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”).
What were some of the ETF’s largest purchases and sales during the reporting period?
We rotated the ETF a little further into mortgage credit, focused on the credit risk transfer market, which remained an attractive area, particularly among seasoned deals with low loan-to-value ratios. The issuing agencies continued to tender these bonds at a premium to reduce their cost for providing insurance. We also reduced some of the ETF’s emerging-markets corporate exposure on valuations.
How did the ETF’s sector weightings change during the reporting period?
During the reporting period, we increased the ETF’s exposure to agency mortgages, and reduced its exposure to U.S. Treasury securities. On the margin, exposure to commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) increased slightly, while high-yield corporate exposure decreased moderately.
How was the ETF positioned at the end of the reporting period?
As of April 30, 2024, relative to the Benchmark Index, the ETF held overweight exposure to CMBS, asset-backed securities and RMBS. As of the same date, the ETF held underweight exposure to U.S. Treasury securities.

IQ MacKay ESG High Income ETF
How did IQ MacKay ESG High Income ETF perform during the 12 months ended April 30, 2024?
For the 12 months ended April 30, 2024 (the “reporting period”), IQ MacKay ESG High Income ETF returned 7.55% at NAV (net asset value) and 7.53% at market price.1 To compare, the ETF’s Benchmark Index, the Bloomberg Very Liquid High Yield Index2, returned 8.91% for the reporting period.
What factors affected the ETF’s relative performance during the reporting period?
Despite strong absolute returns, the ETF underperformed its Benchmark Index due to underweight exposure to bonds rated CCC, which, along with distressed credits, were the best performers during the reporting period after lagging in 2022. Risk assets rallied as credit spreads narrowed during the reporting period.
What was the ETF’s duration3 strategy during the reporting period?
The duration of the ETF remained in line with, or slightly lower (less than one-quarter of a year) than, the Benchmark Index. This neutral stance had minimal impact on relative returns during the reporting period.
During the reporting period, which sectors were the strongest positive contributors to the ETF’s relative performance and which sectors were particularly weak?
During the reporting period, the ETF’s energy positioning made a positive contribution to relative returns. (Contributions take weightings and total returns into account.) Top performers included oil and gas producer Vital Energy followed by pipeline company EQM Midstream Partners. Selection within capital goods also contributed positively, led by aerospace and defense company TransDigm Group. Consumer cyclicals detracted most significantly from the ETF’s relative returns, due primarily to overweight exposure to Service Corp. International, which underperformed, underweight exposure to the consumer staples group, which outperformed, and a position in Foot Locker, which lagged. Selection in information technology also detracted, as the bonds of CommScope Holding underperformed.
What were some of the ETF’s largest purchases and sales during the reporting period?
During the reporting period, the ETF initiated positions in Algoma Steel, financial concern Antares Holdings and Compass Minerals. During the same period, the ETF exited positions in Allegiant Travel, American Airlines and Callon Petroleum.
How did the ETF’s sector weightings change during the reporting period?
There were no material changes to the ETF’s positioning during the reporting period. On the margin, exposure to banking and basic industry increased slightly, while exposure to energy and information technology decreased.
How was the ETF positioned at the end of the reporting period?
As of April 30, 2024, the ETF held slightly overweight exposure to basic industry and transportation, and underweight exposure to capital goods and financials.

IQ MacKay Municipal Insured ETF
How did IQ MacKay Municipal Insured ETF perform during the 12 months ended April 30, 2024?
For the 12 months ended April 30, 2024 (the “reporting period”), IQ MacKay Municipal Insured ETF returned 2.21% at NAV (net asset value) and 2.03% at market price.1 To compare, the ETF’s Benchmark Index, the Bloomberg Municipal All Insured Bond Index2 returned 2.38% for the reporting period.
What factors affected the ETF’s performance during the reporting period?
The ETF’s performance relative to the Benchmark Index was undermined primarily by a large underweight position in A-rated3 securities. Conversely, the ETF’s relative performance benefited from favorable yield curve4 positioning. The ETF held overweight exposure to better-valued shorter-term and longer-term securities, while holding underweight exposure to the belly of the curve. Materially overweight exposure to AA-rated5 securities, as well as selection within that cohort, also contributed positively to relative performance, as did an overweight position and good security selection in the local general obligation sector.
What was the ETF’s duration6 strategy during the reporting period?
The ETF typically maintains a duration-neutral strategy that falls within a +/− 10% band of the Benchmark Index’s duration. The ETF finished the reporting period with a modified duration7 of 7.04 years versus the Benchmark Index’s modified duration of 7.17 years. Duration positioning did not have a material impact on relative performance.
During the reporting period, which sectors made the strongest contributions to the ETF’s performance and which sectors made the weakest contributions?
Overweight positioning in the local general obligation sector represented the largest and only material contributor to positive relative outperformance. Underweight exposure to the leasing, special tax and water & sewer sectors were the weakest relative contributors although the positions generated positive absolute returns.
What were some of the ETF’s largest purchases and sales during the reporting period?
The ETF typically maintains a very diversified portfolio. The largest purchase during the reporting period was of a City of Anaheim, CA lease revenue bond representing approximately 1.18% of the ETF. The largest sale was of a Pennsylvania school district bond representing approximately 1.10% of the Fund.
How did the ETF’s sector weightings change during the reporting period?
During the reporting period, the ETF decreased its exposure to the local general obligation sector. Exposure to the local transportation, leasing and education sectors increased.

3An obligation rated ‘A’ by S&P is deemed by S&P to be somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than obligations in higher-rated categories. In the opinion of S&P, however, the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is still strong. When applied to Fund holdings, ratings are based solely on the creditworthiness of the bonds in the portfolio and are not meant to represent the security or safety of the Fund.
4The yield curve is a line that plots the yields of various securities of similar quality—typically U.S. Treasury issues—across a range of maturities. The U.S. Treasury yield curve serves as a benchmark for other debt and is used in economic forecasting.
5An obligation rated ‘AA’ by S&P is deemed by S&P to differ from the highest-rated obligations only to a small degree. In the opinion of S&P, the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is very strong. When applied to Fund holdings, ratings are based solely on the creditworthiness of the bonds in the portfolio and are not meant to represent the security or safety of the Fund.
6Duration is a measure of the price sensitivity of a fixed-income investment to changes in interest rates. Duration is expressed as a number of years and is considered a more accurate sensitivity gauge than average maturity.
7Modified duration is inversely related to the approximate percentage change in price for a given change in yield.
Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance (unaudited) (continued)
How was the ETF positioned at the end of the reporting period?
As of April 30, 2024, the ETF held significantly overweight exposure to the local general obligation sector of 37.21% versus 15.99% for the Underlying Index. The largest underweight sector position was in transportation (14.51% vs. 20.46%). The ETF’s largest overweight exposures by state were to Texas (15.72% vs. 9.52%) and Illinois (12.85% vs 10.69%). Conversely, the most underweight state exposures were to California (9.24% vs. 17.63%) and New York (7.04% vs. 12.34%).

IQ MacKay Municipal Intermediate ETF
How did IQ MacKay Municipal Intermediate ETF perform during the 12 months ended April 30, 2024?
For the 12 months ended April 30, 2024 (the “reporting period”), IQ MacKay Municipal Intermediate ETF returned 2.09% at NAV (net asset value) and 1.96% at market price.1 To compare, the ETF’s Benchmark Index, the Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index 1-15 Year Blend2 returned 1.85% for the reporting period.
What factors affected the ETF’s performance during the reporting period?
The ETF’s performance relative to the Benchmark Index benefited primarily from favorable yield curve3 positioning. The ETF held overweight exposure to better-valued shorter-term and longer-term securities, while holding underweight exposure to the middle of the yield curve. Strong security selection within AAA-rated and AA-rated securities was additive.4 Within sectors, significantly overweight exposure to housing contributed positively. Finally, an overweight to—and security selection within—Texas bonds was additive.
What was the ETF’s duration5 strategy during the reporting period?
The ETF typically maintains a duration-neutral strategy that falls within a +/− 10% band of the Benchmark Index’s duration. The ETF finished the reporting period with a modified duration6 of 4.06 years versus the benchmark modified duration of 4.33 years. The ETF’s slightly shorter duration represented a modest drag on the relative results.
During the reporting period, which sectors made the strongest contributions to the ETF’s performance and which sectors made the weakest contributions?
Over the reporting period, the ETF’s overweight exposures to the housing and local general obligation sectors contributed positively to relative performance. The ETF’s underweight exposure to transportation detracted from relative performance.
What were some of the ETF’s largest purchases and sales during the reporting period?
The ETF typically maintains a very diversified portfolio. The largest buy trade during the reporting period was a Phoenix Children’s Hospital variable rate demand note, which is a cash equivalent, representing approximately 1.52% of the ETF. The largest sell trade was for a portion of the same Phoenix Children’s Hospital variable rate demand note, which represented less than 1% of assets. No single trade represented a large percentage of the ETF’s assets.
How did the ETF’s sector weightings change during the reporting period?
During the reporting period, the ETF’s exposure to the housing sector increased from 8.57% to 12.40%, while exposure to the IDR/PCR (industry development revenue/pollution control revenue) sector increased from 5.42% to 8.20%. Over the same period, exposure to the education sector decreased from 7.22% to 5.70% and exposure to the state general obligation sector decreased from 6.97% to 4.51%.

The most underweight sector position was in the state general obligation sector (4.51% vs. 15.79%).

IQ MacKay California Municipal Intermediate ETF
How did IQ MacKay California Municipal Intermediate ETF perform during the 12 months ended April 30, 2024?
For the 12 months ended April 30, 2024 (the “reporting period”), IQ MacKay California Municipal Intermediate ETF returned 2.73% at NAV (net asset value) and 2.72% at market price.1 To compare, the ETF’s Benchmark Index, the Bloomberg California Intermediate Municipal Bond Index2 returned 1.19% for the reporting period.
What factors affected the ETF’s performance during the reporting period?
The ETF’s performance relative to the Benchmark Index benefited primarily from favorable yield curve3 positioning. The Fund held overweight exposure to better-valued shorter-term and longer-term securities, while holding underweight exposure to the belly of the curve. The Fund’s high yield sleeve also added substantially to relative performance. An out-of-Index allocation to below-investment-grade securities, as well as strong security selection within that cohort, were particularly beneficial during the second half of the reporting period.
What was the ETF’s duration4 strategy during the reporting period?
The ETF’s duration was positioned slightly longer than that of its Benchmark Index, with an average duration of 5.11 years for the ETF versus 4.58 years for the Index. This is primarily due to the Fund’s out-of-Index allocation to below-investment-grade bonds. As AAA5 municipal yields decreased and ratios compressed in the latter part of the reporting period, we adjusted the ETF’s allocation by increasing exposure to less rate-sensitive premium coupon bonds while reducing exposure to lower coupon bonds. Consequently, the duration of the ETF’s investment grade-only holdings was slightly lower than that of the benchmark. Additionally, we identified attractive relative value opportunities in certain high yield securities and, on occasion, slightly increased the ETF’s holdings in below-investment-grade bonds. This allocation contributed to the ETF’s slightly longer duration compared to the Index.
During the reporting period, which sectors made the strongest contributions to the ETF’s performance and which sectors made the weakest contributions?
The strongest positive contributions to the ETF’s performance relative to the Benchmark Index during the reporting period came from overweight exposure to the transportation and electric sectors. (Contributions take weightings and total returns into account.) Conversely, the weakest contributions to relative performance came from overweight exposure to the local general obligation sector and underweight exposure to the hospital sector.
What were some of the ETF’s largest purchases and sales during the reporting period?
The ETF attempts to run a highly diversified portfolio. During the reporting period, the largest buys and sells were both approximately 6% of the ETF.
How did the ETF’s sector weightings change during the reporting period?
During the reporting period, we reduced the ETF’s overweight exposure to the local general obligation sector, while increasing exposure to transportation, special tax and electric.

3The yield curve is a line that plots the yields of various securities of similar quality—typically U.S. Treasury issues—across a range of maturities. The U.S. Treasury yield curve serves as a benchmark for other debt and is used in economic forecasting.
4Duration is a measure of the price sensitivity of a fixed-income investment to changes in interest rates. Duration is expressed as a number of years and is considered a more accurate sensitivity gauge than average maturity.
5An obligation rated ‘AAA’ has the highest rating assigned by Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”), and in the opinion of S&P, the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is extremely strong. When applied to Fund holdings, ratings are based solely on the creditworthiness of the bonds in the portfolio and are not meant to represent the security or safety of the Fund.
Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance (unaudited) (continued)
How was the ETF positioned at the end of the reporting period?
As of April 30, 2024, the ETF held overweight exposure to the local general obligation sector relative to the Benchmark Index, with a 20.02% exposure versus 13.47% Index weighting, although the 6.55% end-of-reporting-period overweight was considerably smaller than the 13.04% difference at the start of the reporting period. Conversely, the ETF continued to hold significantly underweight allocation to the state general obligation sector, with 3.08% exposure versus 24.85% for the Index. From a relative perspective, the ETF held exposure to Puerto Rico and Guam-issued bonds that the Index did not hold. Lastly, the Index only holds investment-grade securities, while the ETF can hold up to 20% non-investment grade securities. At the end of the reporting period, the ETF had 11.07% exposure to these lower-rated issuers.

IQ CBRE Real Assets ETF
How did IQ CBRE Real Assets ETF perform during the period since its inception on May 10, 2023, through April 30, 2024 (the “reporting period”)?
For the reporting period, IQ CBRE Real Assets ETF returned −0.16% at NAV (net asset value) and −0.18% at market price.1 To compare, the ETF’s Benchmark Index, the CBRE Real Assets Blended Index and the MSCI World Index (Net)2 returned −0.09% and 19.17%, respectively, for the reporting period.
What factors affected the ETF’s performance during the reporting period?
The ETF underperformed its Benchmark Index primarily due to unfavorable sector allocation. Conversely, relatively strong stock selection bolstered returns compared to the Index.
During the reporting period, which sectors were the strongest positive contributors to the ETF’s relative performance and which sectors were particularly weak?
On the basis of impact, which takes weightings and total returns into account, the sectors that made the strongest contributions to the ETF’s performance relative to the Index were midstream, U.S. retail and industrial. The sectors that made the weakest contributions to the ETF’s relative performance were emerging markets, self storage and Hong Kong retail.
During the reporting period, which individual stocks made the strongest positive contributions to the ETF’s absolute performance and which stocks detracted the most?
On the basis of impact, which takes weightings and total returns into consideration, the stocks that made the strongest contributions to the ETF’s absolute performance during the reporting period included U.S. retail real estate investment trust (“REIT”) Simon Property Group, midstream infrastructure company Targa Resources and health care REIT Welltower. The ETF continued to hold positions in all three companies as of the end of the reporting period.
During the same period, the weakest contributors to the ETF’s absolute performance were cell tower REIT Crown Castle, industrial REIT Rexford Industrial Realty and self-storage REIT Public Storage. The ETF continued to hold positions in all three companies as of the end of the reporting period, as we believed shares represented an attractive combination of value and growth.
How did the ETF’s sector weightings change during the reporting period?
During the reporting period, the largest increases in the ETF’s sector weightings were in U.S. health care and U.S. net lease, both reflecting attractive relative valuations. The largest decreases in exposure were in emerging markets and U.S. towers.
How was the ETF positioned at the end of the reporting period?
As of April 30, 2024, the ETF held its most overweight positions relative to the Index in storage, U.S. retail and hotels. As of the same date, the ETF’s most significantly underweight sector positions were in emerging markets, U.S. industrial and U.S. residential.

IQ Winslow Large Cap Growth ETF
How did IQ Winslow Large Cap Growth ETF perform during the 12 months ended April 30, 2024?
For the 12 months ended April 30, 2024 (the “reporting period”), IQ Winslow Large Cap Growth ETF returned 36.94% at NAV (net asset value) and 37.02% at market price.1 To compare, the ETF’s Benchmark Index, the Russell 1000 Growth Index2, returned 31.80% for the reporting period.
What factors affected the ETF’s performance during the reporting period?
Stock selection in the industrials, information technology and communication services sectors drove most of the ETF’s outperformance relative to its Benchmark Index. Relatively strong gains in these areas were partially offset by weaker stock selection results in the consumer discretionary and financials sectors. From an allocation perspective, the ETF’s relative performance benefited from underweight exposure to the lagging consumer staples and real estate sectors, and overweight exposure to the strong-performing information technology and communication services sectors. These positive allocation effects were partially offset by the ETF’s modestly overweight exposure to the underperforming health care sector.
During the reporting period, were there any market events that materially impacted the ETF’s performance or liquidity?
Large-cap equities generated strong returns for the reporting period. Early in 2023, inflation concerns mellowed. While the U.S. Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) continued to raise rates, 2-year and 10-year U.S. Treasury yields declined, with investors factoring in a nearer-term end to the prevailing tightening cycle. Multiple compression throughout much of 2022 presented attractive starting-point valuations for many companies with resilient and high-compounding growth levels. The longer duration of growth equities’ free cash flow generation positioned them as key beneficiaries for interest rate stabilization—even more so given earlier declines.
During the early months of 2024, global equities continued their strong run, building on 2023’s robust results. The markets appeared to accept the trade-off of modestly higher inflation and interest rates for stronger economic growth. Personal consumption expenditures remained above the Fed’s previously stated 2% long-term goal, and 10-year Treasury yields responded, ending the reporting period at 4.69%, up 81 basis points year to date. (A basis point is one one-hundredth of a percentage point.) Consensus expectations for real 2024 U.S. GDP growth increased to above 2%, up 50% from previous expectations.
During the reporting period, which sectors were the strongest positive contributors to the ETF’s relative performance and which sectors were particularly weak?
On the basis of impact, which takes weightings and total returns into account, the sectors that made the strongest contributions to the ETF’s performance relative to the Index were industrials and information technology, driven by strong security selection. The sectors that made the weakest contributions to the ETF’s absolute performance were consumer discretionary and financials, also driven by security selection.
During the reporting period, which individual stocks made the strongest positive contributions to the ETF’s absolute performance and which stocks detracted the most?
On the basis of impact, which takes weightings and total returns into consideration, the stocks that made the strongest contributions to the ETF’s absolute performance during the reporting period included semiconductor company NVIDIA and multinational software, services and global e-commerce and cloud services leader Amazon.com. NVIDIA continued to benefit from rapidly increasing demand for graphics processing units (“GPUs”) related to datacenter use and artificial intelligence (“AI”) acceleration, as well as gaming applications. GPUs are employed for compute-intensive workloads, which help process large language models used in AI and gaming applications more quickly by reducing computational latency. We believe NVIDIA has a sustainable competitive advantage due to its proprietary software and customer ecosystem. For Amazon.com, we see

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance (unaudited) (continued)
performance driven by the company’s greater focus on profitability in North American and international retail, along with an acceleration in topline growth for Amazon Web Services (“AWS”). Amazon doubled its fulfillment network during the pandemic, which caused profitability in North American retail to decline from a 5% margin in 2018 to approximately breakeven in 2022. As the company grows into its new capacity and implements cost-saving initiatives, we believe North American retail profitability can revert back to 2018 levels. AWS, the dominant player in cloud computing, experienced a slowdown in business due to a slower economy and customer optimizing workloads. The optimization phase moderated in the third and fourth quarters of 2023, and AI-related workloads started to drive an acceleration in topline growth of greater than 15%.
During the same period, the weakest contributors to the ETF’s absolute performance were digital media and marketing solutions company Adobe and discount retailer Dollar Tree. Adobe suffered from high expectations after strong results in 2023. The ETF initiated a position in the company during the reporting period as Adobe not only walked away from a $20 billion dilutive acquisition of Figma in December, which removed a significant concern, but was also expected to begin monetizing its generative AI product, Firefly, in 2024. The stock proved weak during the reporting period as revenue contributions from new AI products were forecast to be six-to-nine months away, while headwinds from a few pricing actions the company took last year created near-term headwinds. For Dollar Tree, research pointed to a reduced confidence level in the company’s margin trajectory despite better sales, leading to downward revisions in the earnings outlook. We exited the ETF’s position during the reporting period.
How did the ETF’s sector weightings change during the reporting period?
The ETF’s sector weightings changed materially during the reporting period, as the market started to look beyond the Fed’s anti-inflationary tightening cycle of 2022 and early 2023 to the expected unwinding of its aggressive monetary policy in 2024. We materially reduced the ETF’s exposure to sectors that are traditionally viewed as more defensive and cyclical in nature in favor of sectors where the trade-off of forecast growth and reasonable valuations appeared well positioned to benefit from market rotation. Health care exposure declined significantly, followed by a more muted reduction in financials. These reductions largely funded additions to communication services and industrials.
How was the ETF positioned at the end of the reporting period?
The ETF’s portfolio structure changed materially during the reporting period, as the trade-off of growth rates and valuation, both absolute and relative, are ever evolving. The weighting of our “consistent growth” investment style decreased significantly, as slowing growth and higher relative valuations led to this category becoming a funding source for increases in other segments. The ETF’s “dynamic growth” allocation increased modestly, with last year’s material outperformance leading to modest trimming of some of the reporting period’s strongest performers. The ETF’s “cyclical growth” allocation experienced the largest increase, due to a combination of strong performance and new additions to the portfolio.

IQ Winslow Focused Large Cap Growth ETF
How did IQ Winslow Focused Large Cap Growth ETF perform during the 12 months ended April 30, 2024?
For the 12 months ended April 30, 2024 (the “reporting period”), IQ Winslow Focused Large Cap Growth ETF returned 37.31% at NAV (net asset value) and 37.36% at market price.1 To compare, the ETF’s Benchmark Index, the Russell 1000 Growth Index2, returned 31.80% for the reporting period.
What factors affected the ETF’s performance during the reporting period?
Stock selection in the information technology, consumer discretionary, industrials and consumer staples sectors drove most of the ETF’s outperformance relative to its Benchmark Index. Relatively strong gains in these areas were partially offset by weaker stock selection results in the health care and energy sectors. From an allocation perspective, the ETF’s relative performance benefited from underweight exposure to the lagging consumer staples and energy sectors. These positive allocation effects were partially offset by the ETF’s modestly overweight exposure to the underperforming financials sector.
During the reporting period, were there any market events that materially impacted the ETF’s performance or liquidity?

The sectors that made the weakest contributions to the ETF’s absolute performance were health care and financials, due to a combination of stock selection and overweight allocation in health care, and overweight allocation in financials.
During the reporting period, which individual stocks made the strongest positive contributions to the ETF’s absolute performance and which stocks detracted the most?
On the basis of impact, which takes weightings and total returns into consideration, the stocks that made the strongest contributions to the ETF’s absolute performance during the reporting period included semiconductor company NVIDIA and multinational software company Microsoft.

GPUs are employed for compute-intensive workloads, which help process large language models used in AI and gaming applications more quickly by reducing computational latency. We believe NVIDIA has a sustainable competitive advantage due to its proprietary software and customer ecosystem. Microsoft is a core holding in software. The company continued to produce double-digit growth, driven by ongoing Azure adoption as more enterprises moved their workloads to the cloud and migrated to Office 365.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance (unaudited) (continued)
During the same period, the weakest contributors to the ETF’s absolute performance were construction, mining and equipment manufacturer Caterpillar and discount retailer Dollar Tree. We exited the ETF’s position in Caterpillar during the reporting period as a larger-than-anticipated decline in new orders changed our view of the stock’s near-term prospects and raised concerns about the company’s 2024 earnings estimates. For Dollar Tree, despite better sales, research reduced investors’ confidence level in the company’s margin trajectory, leading to downward revisions in its earnings outlook. We exited the ETF’s position during the reporting period.
How did the ETF’s sector weightings change during the reporting period?
The ETF’s sector weightings changed materially during the reporting period, as the market started to look beyond the Fed’s anti-inflationary tightening cycle of 2022 and early 2023 to the expected unwinding of its aggressive monetary policy in 2024.

The weighting of our “consistent growth” investment style decreased, as slowing growth and higher relative valuations led to this category becoming a funding source for increases in other segments. The ETF’s “cyclical growth” allocation also decreased as the impact of higher rates led to an expected overall slowing of economic conditions. The ETF’s “dynamic growth” allocation increased significantly, as calendar year 2022’s material underperformance, attractive relative valuations and a renewed focus on profitability for select companies created a compelling entry point for additional funds.

Fund Expenses (unaudited)
As a shareholder of a fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs on purchases and sales and (2) ongoing costs, including Advisory fees and other fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds. Shareholders may pay brokerage commissions on their purchase and sale of a Fund, which are not reflected in the example.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period as indicated below.
Actual Expenses
The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information together with the amount you invested, in a particular fund, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period 11/01/23 to 04/30/24” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. Each Fund will indirectly bear its pro rata share of the expenses incurred by any underlying Fund investments in which each Fund invests. These expenses are not included in the table.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the table below also provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed annual rate of return of 5% 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 a fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. The Funds will indirectly bear their pro rata share of the expenses incurred by any underlying fund investments in which the Funds invest. These expenses are not included in the table.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the hypothetical example is useful in comparing 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 would have been higher.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Each Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 Financial Services — Investment Companies. Each Fund prepares its financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and follows the significant accounting policies described below.
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2024
Use of Estimates
IndexIQ Advisors LLC (the “Advisor”) makes certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of increases and decreases in the net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Indemnification
In the normal course of business, the Funds may enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties that may provide general indemnifications for certain liabilities. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Trust. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. The Advisor believes that the risk of loss in connection with these potential indemnification obligations is remote. However, there can be no assurance that material liabilities related to such obligations will not arise in the future, which could adversely impact the Funds.
Investment Valuation
Each Fund issues and redeems shares on a continuous basis at Net Asset Value (“NAV”) only in large blocks of shares called “Creation Units.” The NAV is determined as of the close of trading (generally, 4:00 PM Eastern Time) on each day the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open for trading. The NAV of the shares of each Fund will be equal to each Fund’s total assets minus each Fund’s total liabilities divided by the total number of shares outstanding. The NAV that is published will be rounded to the nearest cent; however, for purposes of determining the price of Creation Units, the NAV will be calculated to five decimal places. The consideration for purchase of a Creation Unit of shares of each Fund generally consists of a basket of securities and/or cash that the Fund specifies each day.
Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board”) designated the Advisor as its Valuation Designee (the “Valuation Designee”). The Valuation Designee is responsible for performing fair valuations relating to all investments in the Fund’s for which market quotations are not readily available; periodically assessing and managing material valuation risks; establishing and applying fair value methodologies; testing fair valuation methodologies; evaluating and overseeing pricing services; segregation of valuation and portfolio management functions; providing quarterly, annual and prompt reporting to the Board, as appropriate; identifying potential conflicts of interest; and maintaining appropriate records. The Fund’s and the Valuation Designee’s policies and procedures (“Valuation Procedures”) govern the Valuation Designee’s selection and application of methodologies for determining and calculating the fair value of Fund investments. The Valuation Designee may value Fund portfolio securities for which market quotations are not readily available and other Fund assets utilizing inputs from pricing services and other third-party sources.
A Fund typically values fixed-income portfolio securities using last available bid prices or current market quotations provided by dealers or prices (including evaluated prices) supplied by the Fund’s approved independent third-party pricing services. Pricing services may use matrix pricing or valuation models that utilize certain inputs and assumptions to derive values. Pricing services generally value fixed-income securities assuming orderly transactions of an institutional round lot size, but a Fund may hold or transact in such securities in smaller odd lot sizes. Odd lots often trade at different prices that may be above or below the price at which the pricing service has valued the security. Amortized cost is used as a method of valuation with respect to debt obligations with sixty days or less remaining to maturity unless the Advisor determines in good faith that such method does not represent fair value.
Generally, trading in U.S. government securities, money market instruments and certain fixed-income securities is substantially completed each day at various times prior to the close of business on the NYSE. The values of such securities used in computing the NAV of the Fund are determined as of such times. Futures contracts generally are valued at the settlement or closing price determined by the applicable exchange.

Equity securities are generally valued at the closing price of the security on the security’s primary exchange. The primary exchanges for a Fund’s foreign equity securities may close for trading at various times prior to close of regular trading on the NYSE Arca, and the value of such securities used in computing a Fund’s NAV are generally determined as of such times.
If a Fund invests in open-end management investment companies (other than ETFs) registered under the 1940 Act, such investments are generally valued using the investment company’s NAV per share or public offering price. Those companies may also use fair value pricing under some circumstances.
When market quotations or prices are not readily available or not representative of an investment’s fair value, investments are valued using fair value pricing as determined in good faith by the Valuation Designee, pursuant to the Valuation Procedures. The Valuation Procedures state that, subject to the oversight of the Board and unless otherwise noted, the responsibility for the day-to-day valuation of portfolio assets (including fair value measurements for the Funds’ assets and liabilities) rests with the Valuation Designee. The Valuation Designee may conclude that a market quotation is not readily available or is unreliable if a security or other asset or liability does not have a price source due to its lack of liquidity or other reason, if a market quotation differs significantly from recent price quotations or otherwise no longer appears to reflect fair value, where the security or other asset or liability is thinly traded, or if the trading market on which a security is listed is suspended or closed and no appropriate alternative trading market is available. The frequency with which a Fund’s investments are valued using fair value pricing is primarily a function of the types of securities and other assets in which the Fund invests pursuant to its investment objective, strategies and limitations.
The IQ MacKay ESG Core Plus Bond ETF and IQ MacKay ESG High Income ETF sweeps uninvested cash balances into the BlackRock Liquidity Funds Treasury Trust Fund Portfolio, Institutional Class (“BlackRock Liquidity Fund”). BlackRock Liquidity Fund seeks as high a level of current income as is consistent with the preservation of capital and maintenance of liquidity. The IQ MacKay Municipal Insured ETF, IQ MacKay Municipal Intermediate ETF and IQ MacKay California Municipal Intermediate ETF sweeps uninvested cash balances into the Dreyfus Tax Exempt Cash Management, Institutional Class (“Dreyfus Tax Exempt”). The Dreyfus Tax Exempt seeks a high a level of current income exempt from federal income tax as is consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity. The IQ CBRE Real Assets ETF sweeps uninvested cash balances into the BlackRock Liquidity Fed Fund. The BlackRock Liquidity Fed Fund seek current income as is consistent with liquidity and stability of principal. The IQ Winslow Large Cap Growth ETF and IQ Winslow Focused Large Cap Growth ETF sweep uninvested cash balances into the Dreyfus Institutional Preferred Government Money Market Fund, Institutional Class (“Dreyfus Institutional Preferred”). The Dreyfus Institutional Preferred seeks as high a level of current income as is consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity.
Under normal conditions, the Funds invests cash collateral from securities lending activities into Dreyfus Government Cash Management Fund, Institutional Shares (“Dreyfus Government Fund”). The Dreyfus Government Fund has no redemption restrictions and is valued at the daily NAV.
Fair Value Measurement
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP, and requires disclosure about fair value measurements. It also provides guidance on determining when there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability, when a transaction is not orderly, and how that information must be incorporated into fair value measurement. Under ASC 820, various inputs are used in determining the value of the Funds’ investments. These inputs are summarized in the following hierarchy:
•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 securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2024
•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.
A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs or methodology used for valuing instruments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those instruments.
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and are 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 judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. With respect to the valuation of Level 3 securities, the Advisor may employ a market-based valuation approach which may use related or comparable securities, recent transactions, market multiples, book values, and other relevant information to determine fair value. The Advisor may also use an income-based valuation approach in which anticipated future cash flows of the financial instrument are discounted to calculate fair value. The Advisor representatives meet regularly to review and discuss the appropriateness of such fair values using more current information such as, recent security news, recent market transactions, updated corporate action information and/or other macro or security specific events.
All other securities and investments for which market values are not readily available, including restricted securities, and those securities for which it is inappropriate to determine prices in accordance with the aforementioned procedures, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under procedures adopted by the Board, although the actual calculations may be done by others. Factors considered in making this determination may include, but are not limited to, information obtained by contacting the issuer, analysts, or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), analysis of the issuer’s financial statements or other available documents and, if necessary, available information concerning other securities in similar circumstances.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The hierarchy classification of inputs used to value each Fund’s investments at April 30, 2024 is disclosed at the end of each Fund’s Schedule of Investments.
Tax Information and Uncertain Tax Positions
Each Fund is treated as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund’s policy is to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”), applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of the taxable income to the shareholders of the Fund within the allowable time limits.
The Advisor evaluates each Fund’s 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. Recognition of tax benefits of an uncertain tax position is required only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by taxing authorities. The Advisor has analyzed each Fund’s tax positions taken on federal, state and local income tax returns for all open tax years (for up to three tax years), and has concluded that no provisions for federal, state and local income tax are required in each Fund’s financial statements. Each Fund’s federal, state and local income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state and local departments of revenue.
The Funds have concluded that there is no tax liability resulting from uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders
Distributions to Shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. In addition, the Funds may determine to distribute at least annually amounts representing the full dividend yield net of expenses on the underlying investment securities, as if the Funds owned the underlying investment securities for the entire dividend period in which case some portion of each distribution may result in a return of capital. The amount of dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These “book/tax” differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the components of net assets based on their federal tax basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Dividends and distributions, which exceed earnings and profit for tax purposes are reported as a tax return of capital. Therefore, no federal, state and local income tax provisions are required.
Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments, with maturities of three months or less when acquired, and are disclosed as “Short-Term Investments” in the Schedules of Investments.
Security Transactions
Security transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Realized gains and losses on sales of investment securities are calculated using the identified cost method.
Investment Income and Expenses
Dividend income is recognized on the ex-date. Interest income is accrued daily. Distributions of realized capital gains by underlying funds are recorded as realized capital gains on the ex-date. Expenses of the Trust arising in connection with a specific Fund are allocated to that Fund. Other Trust expenses which cannot be directly attributed to a Fund are apportioned among the Funds in the Trust based upon the relative net assets or other appropriate measures. The Funds distribute substantially all their net investment income to shareholders in the form of dividends. Net investment income is distributed monthly and capital gains are typically distributed at least annually. Dividends may be declared and paid more frequently to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. The expenses of the investment companies in which the Funds invest are not included in the amounts shown as expenses on the Statements of Operations or in the expense ratios included in the Financial Highlights.
Discounts and premiums on securities purchased, other than Short-Term Investments, for the Funds are accreted and amortized, respectively, on the effective interest rate method over the life of the respective securities. Discounts and premiums on Short-Term Investments are accreted and amortized, respectively, on the straight-line method. The straight-line method approximates the effective interest method for Short-Term Investments. Income from payment-in-kind securities is accreted daily based on the effective interest method.
Securities Lending
The Bank of New York Mellon (“BNY Mellon”) serves as the securities lending agent for IQ MacKay ESG Core Plus Bond ETF, IQ MacKay ESG High Income ETF, IQ CBRE Real Assets ETF, IQ Winslow Large Cap Growth ETF and the IQ Winslow Focused Large Cap Growth ETF. These Funds may lend portfolio securities to certain creditworthy borrowers, including the Funds’ securities lending agent. It is the Fund’s policy that, at origination, all loans are secured by collateral of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned and 105% of the value of foreign securities loaned. Collateral in the form of cash and/or high grade debt obligations, is maintained at all times. Cash collateral can be invested in certain money market mutual funds which also have exposure to the fluctuations of the market. Each Fund receives compensation for lending its securities from fees paid by the borrowers of securities, net of fee rebates paid to the borrower plus reasonable administrative and custody fees. Each Fund will continue to receive dividend and interest income on securities loaned, any gain or loss in the market price of securities on loan will be accounted for by each Fund. Lending portfolio securities could result in a delay in recovering the Fund’s securities if the borrower defaults.
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2024
A Fund’s security lending activities are governed by a Securities Lending Authorization Agreement (“Lending Agreement”) between each Fund and the lending agent. The Lending Agreement authorizes the lending agent to lend qualifying U.S. and foreign securities held by a Fund to approved borrowers (each a “Borrower”). To mitigate borrower risk, a Fund typically receives from a Borrower, collateral in the form of U.S. dollar cash and/or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or its agencies in excess of the market value of the securities loaned. Under the provisions of the Lending Agreement, each Fund shall have, as to the collateral, all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under applicable law. The lending agent is permitted to invest the cash collateral it receives from a Borrower into a money market fund which is subject to market fluctuation. Therefore, a Fund is exposed to risk of loss if the value of invested cash collateral is insufficient to satisfy each Fund’s obligation to return the full amount owed to such Borrower.
In accordance with the securities lending agreement between the Funds and BNY Mellon, the Funds will be indemnified by BNY Mellon in the event of default of a third party Borrower.
The securities lending income earned by each Fund is disclosed on the Statements of Operations. The value of loaned securities and related collateral are shown on a gross basis in the Schedules of Investments and Statements of Assets and Liabilities. As of April 30, 2024, the cash collateral consisted of an institutional money market fund and non-cash collateral consisted of U.S. Treasury Bills, Notes, Bonds, Separate Trading of Registered Interest (“STRIPs”) and Principal of Securities and U.S. Treasury Inflation Indexed Notes and Bonds with the following maturities:

3. INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AND OTHER AGREEMENTS
Investment Advisory Agreement
The Advisor serves as the investment advisor to each series of the Trust, and is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of New York Life Insurance Company. Under an Investment Advisory Agreement (“Advisory Agreement”) between the Advisor and the Trust, on behalf of each Fund, the Advisor provides a continuous investment program for each Fund’s assets in accordance with its investment objectives, policies and limitations, and oversees the day-to-day operations of each Fund (including arranging for sub-advisory services, as applicable), subject to the supervision of the Board. The Advisor is responsible for the Sub-Advisors and their management of the investment portfolios of each of the Funds.
The Advisor also: (i) supervises all non-advisory operations of the Funds; (ii) provides personnel to perform such executive, administrative and clerical services as are reasonably necessary to provide effective administration of the Funds and the other series of the Trust; (iii) arranges for (a) the preparation of all required tax returns, (b) the preparation and submission of reports to existing shareholders, (c) the periodic updating of prospectuses and statements of additional information and (d) the preparation of reports to be filed with the SEC and other regulatory authorities; (iv) maintains the records of the Funds and the other series of the Trust; and (v) provides office space and all necessary office equipment and services.

Investment Sub-Advisory Agreements
The Sub-Advisors are registered investment advisors and are responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of the Funds subject to the supervision of the Advisor and the Board. Pursuant to the terms of the respective Sub-Advisory Agreements between the Advisor and the Sub-Advisors, the Subadvisor is compensated by the Advisor. To the extent that the Advisor has agreed to waive its management fee or reimburse expenses, the Subadvisor has agreed to waive or reimburse its fee proportionately.
Distribution (12b-1 Fees)
ALPS Distributors, Inc. serves as the Funds’ distributor (the “Distributor”) pursuant to a Distribution Agreement. NYLIFE Distributors LLC has entered into a Service Agreement with the Distributor to market the Funds. The Board has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (“Rule 12b-1Plan”). In accordance with the Rule 12b-1 Plan, the Funds are authorized to pay an amount up to 0.25% of each Fund’s average daily net assets each year for certain distribution-related activities. As authorized by the Board, no Rule 12b-1 fees are currently paid by the Funds and there are no plans to impose these fees. However, in the event Rule 12b-1 fees are charged in the future, they will be paid out of each respective Fund’s assets. The Advisor and its affiliates may, out of their own resources, pay amounts to third parties for distribution or marketing services on behalf of the Funds.
As described in Note 4 below, the Distributor has entered into Participant Agreements with certain broker-dealers and others that allow those parties to be Authorized Participants and to subscribe for and redeem shares of the Funds. Also as described in Note 4 below, such Authorized Participants may from time to time hold, of record or beneficially, a substantial percentage of the Funds’ shares outstanding, act as executing or clearing broker for investment transactions on behalf of the Funds and/or serve as counterparty to derivative transactions with each Fund.
Administrator, Custodian and Transfer Agent
BNY Mellon (in each capacity, the “Administrator,” “Custodian” or “Transfer Agent”) serves as the Funds’ Administrator, Custodian and Transfer Agent pursuant to the Fund Administration and Accounting Agreement, Custody Agreement and Transfer Agency Agreement. Pursuant to these agreements, BNY Mellon provides necessary administrative, custody, transfer agency, tax, accounting services and financial reporting for the maintenance and operations of the Trust and the Funds. BNY Mellon is also responsible for maintaining the books and records and calculating the daily NAV of the Funds. BNY Mellon is a subsidiary of The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation, a financial holding company.
4. CAPITAL SHARE TRANSACTIONS
Shares are created and redeemed on a continuous basis at NAV only in large blocks of shares called Creation Units. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares are not redeemable. Transactions in shares of the Funds are disclosed in detail in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. Only Authorized Participants may purchase or redeem shares directly from the Funds. An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker-dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with the Distributor. Most retail investors will not qualify as Authorized Participants or have the resources to create and redeem whole Creation Units. Therefore, they will be unable to purchase or redeem the shares directly from the Funds. Rather, most retail investors will purchase shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker and will be subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees. Securities received or delivered in connection with in-kind creates and redeems are valued as of the close of business on the effective date of the creation or redemption.

At April 30, 2024, the Funds did not have any capital losses incurred after October 31 (“Post-October Losses”) and any late year ordinary income losses within the taxable year that can arise on the first business day of the Funds’ next taxable year.
At April 30, 2024, the Funds listed below had net capital loss carryforwards for Federal income tax purposes which are available for offset against future taxable net capital gains. The amounts were determined after adjustments for certain differences between financial reporting and tax purposes, such as wash sale losses.
Accordingly, no capital gain distributions are expected to be paid to shareholders of these Funds until future net capital gains have been realized in excess of the available capital loss carryforwards. There is no assurance that any Fund will be able to utilize all of its capital loss carryforwards before they expire. These loss carryforwards are as follows:

8. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Futures Contracts
The Funds entered into futures contracts to help manage the duration and yield curve position of the Funds while minimizing the exposure to wide bid/ask spreads in traditional bonds. A futures contract is an agreement to purchase or sell a specified quantity of an underlying instrument at a specified future date and price, or to make or receive a cash payment based on the value of a financial instrument (e.g., foreign currency, interest rate, security or securities index). A Fund is subject to risks such as market price risk and/or interest rate risk in the normal course of investing in these transactions. Upon entering into a futures contract, a Fund is required to pledge to the broker or futures commission merchant an amount of cash and/or U.S. government securities equal to a certain percentage of the collateral amount, known as the “initial margin.” During the period the futures contract is open, changes in the value of the contract are recognized as unrealized appreciation or depreciation by marking to market such contract on a daily basis to reflect the market value of the contract at the end of each day’s trading. A Fund agrees to receive from or pay to the broker or futures commission merchant an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in the value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as “variation margin.” When the futures contract is closed, a Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the Fund’s basis in the contract.
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2024
The use of futures contracts involves, to varying degrees, elements of market risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The contract or notional amounts and variation margin reflect the extent of a Fund’s involvement in open futures positions. There are several risks associated with the use of futures contracts as hedging techniques. There can be no assurance that a liquid market will exist at the time when a Fund seeks to close out a futures contract. If no liquid market exists, a Fund would remain obligated to meet margin requirements until the position is closed. Futures may involve a small initial investment relative to the risk assumed, which could result in losses greater than if they had not been used.
Futures may be more volatile than direct investments in the instrument underlying the futures and may not correlate to the underlying instrument, causing a given hedge not to achieve its objective. A Fund’s activities in futures contracts have minimal counterparty risk as they are conducted through regulated exchanges that guarantee the futures against default by the counterparty. In the event of a bankruptcy or insolvency of a futures commission merchant that holds margin on behalf of a Fund, a Fund may not be entitled to the return of the entire margin owed to a Fund, potentially resulting in a loss. A Fund’s investment in futures contracts and other derivatives may increase the volatility of the Fund’s NAV and may result in a loss to the Fund. As of April 30, 2024, the open futures contracts for IQ MacKay ESG Core Plus Bond ETF are shown in the Schedule of Investments.

9. RISKS INVOLVED WITH INVESTING IN THE FUNDS
The Funds are subject to the principal risks described below, some or all of these risks may adversely affect a Fund’s NAV, trading price, yield, total return and ability to meet its investment objective. As with any investment, an investment in a Fund could result in a loss or the performance of a Fund could be inferior to that of other investments.
California State Specific Risk1
Investments in municipal bonds issued by, or on behalf of, the State of California, and its political subdivisions, agencies and instrumentalities, will be impacted by events in California that may affect the value of the Fund’s investments and performance. These events may include fiscal or political policy changes, tax base erosion, budget deficits and other financial difficulties. Any deterioration of California’s fiscal situation and economic situation of its municipalities could cause greater volatility and increase the risk of investing in California.
Debt Securities Risk
The ability of issuers of debt securities held by the Funds to meet their obligations may be affected by, among other things, economic or political developments in a specific country, industry or region. Debt securities are also subject to the risks associated with changes in interest rates. Debt investments are subject to many risks, including, but not limited to, interest rate risk, credit risk, market risk, regulatory risk, price volatility and liquidity risk. There is a risk that an issuer or guarantor of a debt investment might be unable or unwilling to meet its financial obligations and might not make interest or principal payments on an instrument when those payments are due (“default”). Defaults may potentially reduce a Fund’s income or ability to recover amounts due, and may reduce the value of the debt investment, sometimes dramatically. Certain debt investments may be difficult to value, purchase, or sell, particularly during adverse market conditions, because there is a limited market for the investment or there are restrictions on resale.
Debt securities most frequently trade in institutional round lot size transactions. If a Fund purchases bonds in amounts less than the institutional round lot size, which are frequently referred to as “odd” lots, the odd lot size positions may have more price volatility than institutional round lot size positions. The Fund uses a third-party pricing service to value bond holdings and the pricing service values bonds assuming orderly transactions of an institutional round lot size.
Derivatives Risk
Derivative strategies may expose a Fund to greater risk than if it had invested directly in the underlying instrument and often involve leverage, which may exaggerate a loss, potentially causing a Fund to lose more money than it originally invested and would have lost had it invested directly in the underlying instrument. Derivatives may be difficult to sell, unwind or value. Derivatives may also be subject to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the counterparty (the party on the other side of the transaction) on a derivative transaction will be unable to honor its contractual obligations to the Fund. Futures may be more volatile than direct investments in the instrument underlying the contract and may not correlate perfectly to the underlying instrument. Futures and other derivatives also may involve a small initial investment relative to the risk assumed, which could result in losses greater than if they had not been used. Due to fluctuations in the price of the underlying asset, a Fund may not be able to profitably exercise an option and may lose its entire investment in an option. Derivatives may also increase the expenses of a Fund.
ESG Investing Style Risk2
A Fund seeks exposure to the securities of companies meeting environmental, social and corporate governance investing criteria. A Fund excludes or limits exposure to securities of certain issuers for non-financial reasons, and a Fund may forgo some market opportunities available to funds that do not use these criteria. The application
1 Applies to IQ MacKay California Municipal Intermediate ETF.
2 Applies to IQ MacKay ESG Core Plus Bond ETF and IQ MacKay ESG High Income ETF.
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2024
of ESG investing criteria may affect the Fund’s exposure to certain sectors or types of investments and may impact the Fund’s relative investment performance depending on whether such sectors or investments are in or out of favor in the market. ESG investing is subjective by nature, and therefore offers no guarantee that the ESG criteria utilized by the Subadvisor will accurately provide exposure to issuers meeting environmental, social and corporate governance criteria or any judgment exercised by the Subadvisor will reflect the beliefs or values of any particular investor. In addition, ESG investing is dependent upon information and data that may be incomplete, inaccurate or unavailable, which could adversely affect the analysis of the factors relevant to a particular investment.
Large Investment Risk
From time to time, a Fund may receive large purchase or redemption orders from affiliated or unaffiliated funds or other investors. Such large transactions could have adverse effects on a Fund’s performance if a Fund were required to sell securities or invest cash at times when it otherwise would not do so. This activity could also accelerate the realization of capital gains and increase a Fund’s transaction costs.
LIBOR Replacement Risk
A Fund may invest in certain debt securities, derivatives or other financial instruments that have relied or continue to rely on LIBOR, as a “benchmark” or “reference rate” for various interest rate calculations. As of January 1, 2022, the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”), which regulates LIBOR, ceased its active encouragement of banks to provide the quotations needed to sustain most LIBOR rates due to the absence of an active market for interbank unsecured lending and other reasons. In connection with supervisory guidance from U.S. regulators, certain U.S. regulated entities have generally ceased to enter into certain new LIBOR contracts after January 1, 2022. On March 15, 2022, the Adjustable Interest Rate (LIBOR) Act was signed into law. This law provides a statutory fallback mechanism on a nationwide basis to replace LIBOR with a benchmark rate that is selected by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and based on SOFR (which measures the cost of overnight borrowings through repurchase agreement transactions collateralized with U.S. Treasury securities) for tough legacy contracts. On February 27, 2023, the Federal Reserve System’s final rule in connection with this law became effective, establishing benchmark replacements based on SOFR and Term SOFR (a forward-looking measurement of market expectations of SOFR implied from certain derivatives markets) for applicable tough legacy contracts governed by U.S. law. In addition, the FCA has announced that it will require the publication of synthetic LIBOR for the one-month, three-month and six-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings after June 30, 2023 through at least September 30, 2024. Certain of the Fund’s investments may involve individual tough legacy contracts which may be subject to the Adjustable Interest Rate (LIBOR) Act or synthetic LIBOR and no assurances can be given that these measures will have had the intended effects. Although the transition process away from LIBOR for many instruments has been completed, some LIBOR use is continuing and there are potential effects related to the transition away from LIBOR or continued use of LIBOR on the Fund.
The elimination of LIBOR or changes to other reference rates or any other changes or reforms to the determination or supervision of reference rates could have an adverse impact on the market for, or value of, any securities or payments linked to those reference rates, which may adversely affect the Fund’s performance and/or net asset value. It could also lead to a reduction in the interest rates on, and the value of, some LIBOR-based investments and reduce the effectiveness of hedges mitigating risk in connection with LIBOR-based investments. Uncertainty and risk also remain regarding the willingness and ability of issuers and lenders to include enhanced provisions in new and existing contracts or instruments. Consequently, the transition away from LIBOR to other reference rates may lead to increased volatility and illiquidity in markets that are tied to LIBOR, fluctuations in values of LIBOR-related investments or investments in issuers that utilize LIBOR, increased difficulty in borrowing or refinancing and diminished effectiveness of hedging strategies, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance. Furthermore, the risks associated with the expected discontinuation of LIBOR and transition may be exacerbated if the work necessary to effect an orderly transition to an alternative reference rate is not completed in a timely manner. The usefulness of LIBOR as a benchmark could deteriorate anytime during this transition period. Any such effects of the transition process, including unforeseen effects, could result in losses to a Fund.

Market Disruption Risk and Recent Market Events
Geopolitical and other events, including war, terrorism, economic uncertainty, trade disputes, public health crises and related geopolitical events have led, and in the future may lead, to disruptions in the U.S. and world economies and markets, which may increase financial market volatility and have significant adverse direct or indirect effects on a Fund and its investments. Market disruptions could cause a Fund to lose money, experience significant redemptions, and encounter operational difficulties. Although multiple asset classes may be affected by a market disruption, the duration and effects may not be the same for all types of assets.
Recent market disruption events include the pandemic spread of the novel coronavirus known as COVID-19, and the significant restrictions, market volatility, decreased economic and other activity and increased government activity that it has caused. While vaccines have been developed, there is no guarantee that vaccines will be effective against emerging future variants of the disease. As this global pandemic illustrated, such events may affect certain geographic regions, countries, sectors and industries more significantly than others.
Ongoing armed conflicts between Russia and Ukraine in Europe and among Israel, Hamas and other militant groups in the Middle East, have caused and could continue to cause significant market disruptions and volatility within the markets in Russia, Europe, the Middle East and the United States. The hostilities and resulting sanctions have and could continue to have a significant impact on a Fund’s investments as well as Fund performance and liquidity. The economies of the United States and its trading partners, as well as the financial markets generally, may be adversely impacted by trade disputes and other matters. Further, large corporations and U.S. and foreign governmental entities may divest interests or otherwise curtail business dealings in these countries. These events may result in a loss of liquidity and value of these countries’ securities and, in some cases, a complete inability to trade or settle trades in such securities.
Changing interest rate environments (whether downward or upward) impact the various sectors of the economy in different ways. For example, low interest rate environments tend to be a positive factor for the equity markets, whereas high interest rate environments tend to apply downward pressure on earnings and stock prices. Likewise, during periods when interest rates are increasing (rather than stagnant in a high or low interest rate environment), the price of fixed income investments tend to fall as investors begin to seek higher-yielding investments. Accordingly, a Fund is subject to heightened interest rate risk during periods of low interest rates. During rising interest rate environments, the Funds may be adversely affected, especially those Funds that are more susceptible to interest rate risk (e.g., those funds that hold fixed income investments or that invest in equity securities of issuers who are adversely affected by rising interest rates). As a means to fight inflation, which remains at elevated levels, the Federal Reserve and certain foreign central banks have raised interest rates and may continue to do so. U.S. regulators have proposed several changes to market and issuer regulations which would directly impact a Fund, and any regulatory changes could adversely impact a Fund’s ability to achieve its investment strategies or make certain investments.
Recent and potential future bank failures could result in disruption to the broader banking industry or markets generally and reduce confidence in financial institutions and the economy as a whole, which may also heighten market volatility and reduce liquidity. Events in the financial sector may result in reduced liquidity in the credit, fixed-income and other financial markets and an unusually high degree of volatility in the financial markets, both domestically and internationally. Certain isolated events in a financial market may also result in systemic adverse consequences across broader segments of the financial markets (domestically, regionally, or globally) in unanticipated or unforeseen ways. Such events may result from unregulated markets, systemic risk, natural market forces, bad actors, or other unforeseen scenarios.

Liquidity Risk Management Program (unaudited)
April 30, 2024
In compliance with Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the funds of IndexIQ Active ETF Trust (the “Funds”) have adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the “Program”), which IndexIQ Advisors LLC believes is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Funds’ liquidity risk. The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) designated IndexIQ Advisors LLC as administrator of the Program (the “Administrator”). The Program Administrator’s Liquidity Risk Management Committee assists the Administrator in the implementation and day-to-day administration of the Program and to otherwise support the Administrator in fulfilling its responsibilities under the Program.
At a meeting of the Board held on March 28, 2024, the Administrator provided the Board with a written report addressing the Program’s operation, adequacy, and effectiveness of implementation for the period from January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023 (the “Reporting Period”), as required under the Liquidity Rule. The report noted that the Administrator concluded that: (i) the Program operated effectively to assess and manage the Funds’ liquidity risk; (ii) the Program has been adequately and effectively implemented to monitor and, as applicable, respond to the Funds’ liquidity developments; and (iii) each Fund’s investment strategy continues to be appropriate for an open-end fund.
In accordance with the Program, each Fund’s liquidity risk is assessed no less frequently than annually taking into consideration certain factors, as applicable, such as: (i) each Fund’s investment strategy and liquidity of portfolio investments during both normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions; (ii) each Fund’s short-term and long-term cash flow projections during both normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions; (iii) each Fund’s holdings of cash and cash equivalents, as well as borrowing arrangements and other funding sources; (iv) the relationship between each Fund’s portfolio liquidity and the way in which, and the prices and spreads at which, Fund shares trade, including the efficiency of the arbitrage function and the level of active participation by market participants, including authorized participants; and (v) the effect of the composition of baskets on the overall liquidity of each Fund’s portfolio.
Each Fund portfolio investment (except the IQ Winslow Large Cap Growth ETF and IQ Winslow Focused Large Cap Growth ETF) is classified into one of four liquidity categories. The classification is based on a determination of the number of days it is reasonably expected to take to convert the investment into cash, or sell or dispose of the investment, in current market conditions without significantly changing the market value of the investment. The Administrator has delegated liquidity classification determinations to each Fund’s sub-adviser, subject to appropriate oversight by the Administrator, and classification determinations are made by taking into account each Fund’s reasonably anticipated trade size, various market, trading, and investment-specific considerations, as well as market depth, and, in certain cases, third-party vendor data.
The Liquidity Rule requires funds that do not primarily hold assets that are highly liquid investments to adopt a minimum amount of net assets that must be invested in highly liquid investments that are assets (“HLIM”). In addition, the Liquidity Rule limits a fund’s investments in illiquid investments. Specifically, the Liquidity Rule prohibits acquisition of illiquid investments if doing so would result in a fund holding more than 15% of its net assets in illiquid investments that are assets. The Program includes provisions reasonably designed to determine, periodically review, and comply with the HLIM requirement, as applicable, and to comply with the 15% limit on illiquid investments.
There were no material changes to the Program during the Reporting Period. The Report provided to the Board stated that the Committee concluded that based on the operation of the functions, as described in the Report, the Program is operating as intended and is effective in implementing the requirements of the Liquidity Rule.

Board Review of Investment Advisory Agreements (unaudited)
April 30, 2024
Approval Relating To Annual Continuation of the Advisory Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements
The Board (the members of which are referred to as “Trustees”) met by videoconference on March 28, 2024, pursuant to an order issued by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s Division of Investment Management temporarily exempting fund boards from the in-person approval requirements of certain provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), in light of the impact of COVID-19 to consider the approval of the continuation, for an additional year, of the Advisory Agreement with respect to the series of the Trust for which the agreement applies (the “Funds”). The Board noted that the Advisory Agreement was between the Trust and IndexIQ Advisors LLC (the “Advisor”). In addition, the Board considered the continuation of the Sub-Advisory Agreement between the Advisor and MacKay Shields LLC (“MacKay”), with respect to the IQ MacKay ESG Core Plus Bond ETF, IQ MacKay ESG High Income ETF, IQ MacKay Municipal Insured ETF, IQ MacKay Municipal Intermediate ETF and IQ MacKay California Municipal Intermediate ETF and the Sub-Advisory Agreement between the Advisor and Winslow Capital Management, LLC (“Winslow”), with respect to the IQ Winslow Large Cap Growth ETF and IQ Winslow Focused Large Cap Growth ETF (MacKay and Winslow, collectively, the “Sub-Advisors” and each a “Sub-Advisor”).
In accordance with Section 15(c) of the 1940 Act, the Board requested, reviewed and considered materials furnished by the Advisor relevant to the Board’s consideration of whether to approve the continuation of the Advisory Agreement with respect to the Funds, and from the Sub-Advisors and the Advisor relevant to the Board’s consideration of whether to approve the continuation of each Sub-Advisory Agreement as it relates to IQ MacKay ESG Core Plus Bond ETF, IQ MacKay ESG High Income ETF, IQ MacKay Municipal Insured ETF, IQ MacKay Municipal Intermediate ETF, IQ MacKay California Municipal Intermediate ETF, IQ Winslow Large Cap Growth ETF and IQ Winslow Focused Large Cap Growth ETF (each a “Sub-Advised Fund” and collectively, the “Sub-Advised Funds”). In connection with considering approval of the continuation of the Advisory Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust, as that term is defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), met in executive session with counsel to the Independent Trustees, who provided assistance and advice. The consideration of the continuation of the Advisory Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements was conducted by both the full Board and the Independent Trustees, who also voted separately.
During their review and consideration, the Board and the Independent Trustees focused on and analyzed the factors they deemed relevant, including: (1) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Advisor to the Funds and by MacKay and Winslow with respect to the Sub-Advised Funds, and the fees charged by the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor; (2) information concerning the business and operations, compliance program and portfolio management teams of the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor; (3) the expense levels of each Fund; (4) the investment performance of the Funds; (5) the costs of the services provided and profits realized by the Advisor and its affiliates from the relationship with the Trust, including expense limitation agreements and fee waiver agreements between the Advisor and certain Funds; (6) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as each Fund grows; (7) any “fall-out” benefits derived or to be derived by the Advisor or each Sub-Advisor from their relationships with the Trust; and (8) potential conflicts of interest. The Board considered that the Funds were actively managed exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”).
In reviewing such factors, the Board relied on certain information, including (1) a copy of the Advisory Agreement; (2) a copy of each Sub-Advisory Agreement; (3) information about applicable expense limitation and fee waiver agreements; (4) information describing the Advisor, MacKay and Winslow and the services provided thereby; (5) information regarding the respective compliance program and portfolio management teams of the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor; (6) copies of the Form ADV for each of the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor; (7) memoranda and guidance from legal counsel to the Independent Trustees on the fiduciary responsibilities of trustees, including Independent Trustees, in considering advisory and distribution agreements under the 1940 Act; (8) materials provided by each of the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor in response to a 15(c) request for information from legal counsel to the Independent Trustees; and (9) a presentation by personnel of the Advisor. In addition, the Board was provided data comparing the advisory fees and operating expenses (including acquired fund fees and expenses, as applicable) of the Funds with expenses and performance of other registered investment companies with similar investment objectives and policies. The Trustees also considered their personal experiences as Trustees and participants in the investment management industry, as applicable, including their experiences with the Advisor in respect of series of the Trust and IndexIQ ETF Trust.
Board Review of Investment Advisory Agreements (unaudited) (continued)
April 30, 2024
In particular, the Trustees including the Independent Trustees, considered and discussed the following with respect to the Funds:
1.The nature, extent and quality of the facilities and services provided by the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor. The Board reviewed the services that the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor provide to the respective Funds, noting that they had continually reviewed and overseen such services throughout the past year. The Board noted the responsibilities that the Advisor and the Sub-Advisors have as the investment advisor and sub-advisors to the respective Funds, including overall supervisory responsibility for the general management and investment of each Fund’s securities portfolio, monitoring fund compliance with regulatory requirements and Fund objectives and policies, daily monitoring of the portfolio, overseeing Fund service providers, providing officers for the Funds, ongoing reporting to the Board, and the implementation of Board directives as they relate to the Funds.
The Board reviewed the Advisor’s and each Sub-Advisor’s experience, resources, and strengths in managing ETFs and other investment mandates, including the Advisor’s management of the Funds and the funds of the IndexIQ ETF Trust. The Board also considered the experience of each Sub-Advisor’s team in managing strategies and asset classes similar to the Sub-Advised Funds, and their tenure in managing the portfolios of the operational Sub-Advised Funds. The Board also noted and discussed with the Advisor the resources and additional support and personnel from its affiliates New York Life Investment Management LLC (“NYLIM”) and New York Life Insurance Company, which resources enhance and support the work of the Advisor’s officers and staff. The Board also considered the tenure and experience of the personnel at the Advisor providing management and administrative services to the Funds. The Board also considered the Advisor’s marketing and distribution strategy, including the various services engaged by the Advisor in seeking to market and grow assets in the Funds.
Based on their consideration and review of the foregoing information, the Board concluded that each Fund was likely to continue to benefit from the nature, quality, and extent of these services, as well as the Advisor’s and each Sub-Advisor’s ability to render such services based on its personnel, experience, operations, and resources.
2.Comparison of services provided and fees charged by the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor and other investment advisors to similar clients, and the cost of the services provided and profits realized by the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor from their relationships with the respective Funds. The Board then compared both the services rendered and the fees paid with respect to the Funds pursuant to the Advisory Agreement and each Sub-Advisory Agreement to contracts of other registered investment advisors providing services to similar ETFs. The Board also considered that the Advisor is responsible for payment of the sub-advisory fee to the Sub-Advisors pursuant to each Sub-Advisory Agreement, and that shareholders of the Sub-Advised Funds do not directly pay the sub-advisory fee.
In particular, the Board compared each Fund’s advisory fee and expense ratio (including acquired fund fees and expenses, as applicable) to other investment companies considered to be in each such Fund’s peer group. The Advisor presented information on how peer groups were selected for the Funds and explained that peer groups were selected using an objective methodology by a NYLIM team.
The Board noted that certain Funds had peer groups of limited size and, in certain cases, with substantial differences in portfolio management and operational costs. The Board was presented with information describing the Funds’ performance and fees, with information relative to peer groups. The Board considered unique characteristics of certain Funds relative to peer groups, particularly where such Funds had fee or total expense ratios that diverged from the median levels of the applicable peer group. The Board also discussed price pressure in the general ETF marketplace and the impact of market pressures on the price levels for actively managed ETFs such as the Funds. The Board considered the level of each of the fees under the Advisory Agreement in the context of the services being provided.
Board Review of Investment Advisory Agreements (unaudited) (continued)
April 30, 2024
Additionally, the Trustees considered that the Advisor had put in place expense limitation agreements whereby the Advisor reimburses expenses and/or waives fees to limit the impact above set thresholds of certain expenses on shareholders of the Funds. The Board noted that such expense limitation agreements were reflected in the peer group analysis provided by the Advisor. The Board further noted that the Advisor had put in place permanent expense limitation and/or fee waiver agreements for certain Funds, which were subject to termination by the Board.
After comparing each Fund’s fees with those of other investment companies in the Fund’s peer group, and in light of the nature, quality, and extent of services provided by the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor and the costs incurred by the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor in rendering those services, the Board concluded that the level of fees paid (or proposed to be paid) to the Advisor with respect to each Fund and to the Sub-Advisors with respect to each Sub-Advised Fund, is fair and reasonable.
3.The Advisor’s, MacKay’s and Winslow’s profitability and the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Funds grow and whether fee levels would reflect such economies of scale. The Board discussed with the Advisor the costs and profitability of the Advisor in connection with its serving as investment advisor to each Fund, including operational costs. The Board also discussed additional resources available to the Advisor as part of a larger organization, including the investment of financial and human resources into the Advisor and additional support to market and distribute the Funds.
The Board considered information regarding the strategy of the Advisor to grow assets in the Funds during the calendar year, including the marketing and distribution details that were provided in the Board materials. The Board reviewed the net asset levels of the Funds and the impact of both high and low asset levels on such Funds. The Advisor presented to the Board information on the operating profits on a year over year basis. The Board also considered the impact of future asset growth on the services required and fees paid to each Sub-Advisor, noting again that such fees were paid by the Advisor out of its management fees. The Board considered whether the continued operation of certain Funds that had not attracted significant assets under management would be profitable to the Advisor and determined to continue to review the asset levels of the Funds in relation to the Advisor’s profitability. The Board also noted the existence of the Expense Limitation Agreement, and its respective impact on costs to shareholders and profitability of the Advisor.
The Board concluded that the fees paid to the Advisor and the Sub-Advisors, respectively, were reasonable when considering the relative asset levels and profitability of the Funds to the Advisor.
4.Investment performance of the Funds. The Board considered the investment performance of the existing Funds. In particular, the Board considered the investment performance of the Funds relative to their stated objectives and the success of the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor in reaching such objectives. The Board considered each Fund’s investment performance compared to its benchmark and peer group. The Board considered that certain Funds had recently launched and had limited performance and operational history to consider.
The Board concluded that the investment performance of the Funds supported the approval of the Advisory Agreement and each Sub-Advisory Agreement.
The Board agreed that it had been furnished with sufficient information, both at the meeting and in its ongoing oversight of the Funds, to make an informed business decision with respect to the Advisory Agreement for the Funds and, with respect to the Sub-Advised Funds, the Sub-Advisory Agreements. Based on the foregoing and such other matters as were deemed relevant, and while no single factor was determinative in the decision, the Independent Trustees concluded that the terms of the Advisory Agreement with the Advisor and the Sub-Advisory Agreements between the Advisor and each Sub-Advisor were reasonable and fair to the Funds and to recommend to the Board the approval of the Advisory Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements. As a result, all of the Board members, including the Independent Trustees, determined that the continuation of the Advisory Agreement with the Advisor and continuation of each Sub-Advisory Agreement was in the best interests of each applicable Fund and its shareholders. The Board and the Independent Trustees, voting separately, approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements for an additional one-year period.

Item 3. Audit Committee Financial Expert.
The Registrant’s Board of Trustees has one audit committee financial expert serving on its Audit Committee, an “independent” Trustee, Michael Pignataro. Under applicable securities laws, a person who is determined to be an audit committee financial expert will not be deemed an “expert” for any purpose, including without limitation for the purposes of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as a result of being designated or identified as an audit committee financial expert. The designation or identification of a person as an audit committee financial expert does not impose on such person any duties, obligations, or liabilities that are greater than the duties, obligations, and liabilities imposed on such person as a member of the Audit Committee and Board of Trustees in the absence of such designation or identification.
Item 4. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.
Audit Fees
| (a) | The aggregate fees billed for each of the last two fiscal years for professional services rendered by the principal accountant for the audit of the registrant's annual financial statements or services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for those fiscal years are $177,500 for 2024 and $167,592 for 2023. |
Audit-Related Fees
| (b) | The aggregate fees billed in each of the last two fiscal years for assurance and related services by the principal accountant that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit of the registrant's financial statements and are not reported under paragraph (a) of this Item are $0 for 2024 and $0 for 2023. |
Tax Fees
| (c) | The aggregate fees billed in each of the last two fiscal years for professional services rendered by the principal accountant for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning are $0 for 2024 and $0 for 2023. |
All Other Fees
| (d) | The aggregate fees billed in each of the last two fiscal years for products and services provided by the principal accountant, other than the services reported in paragraphs (a) through (c) of this Item are $0 for 2024 and $0 for 2023. |
| (e)(1) | Per Rule 2-01(c)(7)(A), the Audit Committee pre-approves all of the Audit, Audit-Related, Tax and Other Fees of the Registrant. |
| (e)(2) | With respect to the services described in each of Items 4(b) through (d), no amount was approved by the audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(A) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X. |
| (f) | The percentage of hours expended on the principal accountant's engagement to audit the registrant's financial statements for the most recent fiscal year that were attributed to work performed by persons other than the principal accountant's full-time, permanent employees was less than fifty percent. |
| (g) | The aggregate non-audit fees billed by the principal accountant for services rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any subadvisor whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant were (i) approximately $14,573,000 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2024, and (ii) $13,219,000 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2023. |
| (h) | The registrant’s Audit Committee has determined that the non-audit services rendered by the principal accountant for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2024 to the registrant’s investment adviser and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the registrant’s investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that were not required to be pre-approved by the Audit Committee because they did not relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the registrant were compatible with maintaining the respective independence of the principal accountant during the relevant time period. |
Item 5. Audit Committee of Listed Registrants.
| (a) | The Fund has a designated Audit Committee in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and the members of such committee are Michael Pignataro, Michelle Kinch, Lofton Holder and Paul Schaeffer. |
