Pacer Funds
Dear Shareholder:
Pacer ETFs recently crossed its second year in the ETF business. We continue to grow in the development of new products, new fund launches, and assets under management. Our strategy driven ETFs continue to find a place in client portfolios by delivering funds that accomplish specific goals for investors. As of this writing, our assets crossed $1 billion in just under two years. Because of that commitment from you, we are able to build out our suite of products.
The ETF marketplace continues to grow as global ETF assets recently crossed $4 trillion. More investors are adopting the benefits of ETFs. The wave of investors choosing passive investing over active management does not look like it will subside any time soon. Smart Beta investing also continues to grow in number of fund offerings and assets under management. Investors have determined that there is a real need for these strategies. Pacer delivers for those with our belief through our Cash Cows series. Indexes can hold hundreds, if not thousands, of securities, but we believe that not every one of those stocks is worth buying. If you wouldn’t buy the stock on its own merit, why own it in an index. We believe there is true value in our methodology that selects the best securities from an index in constructing our funds.
The market continues to reach new highs, but there is a complacency that is making investors nervous. Volatility, as measured by the VIX, is also near record lows. We believe our Trendpilot ETFs can help investors participate in market rallies and protect them against a long-term major market downturn.
Thank you for your business and support. We look forward to growing with you in the future.
Sincerely,
Joe M. Thomson
Chairman, Pacer Funds Trust

Market Environment Overview
Investors saw a lot of global events over the last twelve months. Some of the more notable ones include The U.S. Presidential election, the Federal Reserve raising rates in December 2016 for only the second time in a decade and the United Kingdom’s vote to withdrawal from the European Union in June 2016.
Stock markets have seen record highs extending the second longest bull market in history. Investors are looking for a reason or catalyst for a stock market correction or recession, but market volatility is at an all-time low. There have been periods over the last 6 months where stocks have had the lowest number of daily 1% moves since 1995. Economic and job data continue to creep along helping perpetuate the stock market momentum.
The market’s reaction to the U.S. Presidential election and the potential policies to be implemented or eliminated saw an 11% increase only to see that erase. The real story however, is that earnings for Q1 2017 show some of the strongest growth in years.
According to FactSet, as of May 19, 2017 (with 95% of the companies in the S&P 500 reporting actual results for Q1 2017), 75% of S&P 500 companies have beat the mean EPS estimate and 64% of S&P 500 companies have beat the mean sales estimate. The blended earnings growth rate for Q1 for the S&P 500 is 13.9%. If 13.9% is the actual growth rate for the quarter, it will mark the highest (year-over-year) earnings growth for the index since Q3 2011 (16.7%).
Regardless of news, whether fake or real, investors must be ever vigilant that their portfolios can adapt to all market conditions and not let emotions take over.

• | May 5, 2016 – 100% T-Bills | |
• | June 1, 2016 – 100% Equities |
The underperformance can be attributed to the fund missing on 5.03% of performance when it moved from equities to T Bills and back again to 100% Equities. The NASDAQ-100 has 52.55% of its holdings in Information Technology. When the fund was invested in equities, the top three sectors for contribution to performance were Information Technology at 32.57%, Consumer Discretionary at 3.35%, and Consumer Staples at 10.57%.

Pacer Funds
The fund has remained in equities through the end of the period.
The funds under performance can be attributed to the period between June 16 and August 1, where the Pacer Trendpilot European Index went to 100% T Bills. While the Trendpilot Index was exposed to T bills, the market rallied 6.55% resulting in under performance for the Trendpilot Index.

Sector performance numbers reflect their total return during the period.
Pacer Cash Cows Series
The Cash Cows series are strategy driven funds designed to identify companies with high free cash flow. The ability for a company to generate high free cash flow indicates a company is producing more cash than it needs to run the business. Selecting the best companies from a broad based index with high free cash flow yield identifies healthier companies with the potential to produce greater returns than a broad based index.
The period referenced in this section for all Cash Cows funds is for fiscal year end April 30, 2017, except for the Pacer U.S. Cash Cows 100 ETF.
Pacer Global Cash Cows Dividend ETF
The Pacer Global Cash Cows Dividend ETF (the “Fund”) seeks to track the total return performance, before fees and expenses, of the Pacer Global Cash Cows Dividend Index (the “Index”).
The Index uses an objective, rules-based methodology to provide exposure to global companies with high dividend yields backed by a high free cash flow yield. The initial index universe is derived from the component companies of the FTSE Developed Large Cap Index. The initial universe of companies is screened based on their average projected free cash flows and earnings (if available) over each of the next two fiscal years. Companies with negative average projected free cash flows or earnings are removed from the index universe. Additionally, financial companies, other than real estate investment trusts (“REITs”), are excluded from the index universe.
The remaining companies are ranked by their free cash flow yield for the trailing twelve-month period. The 300 companies with the highest free cash flow yield are then ranked by their dividend yield. The equity securities of the 100 companies with the highest dividend yield are included in the Index.

Pacer Funds
At the time of each rebalance of the Index, the companies included in the Index are weighted based on the aggregate amount of dividends distributed by each company for the trailing twelve-month period, and weightings are capped at 2% of the weight of the Index for any individual company. The Index is reconstituted and rebalanced semi-annually as of the close of business on the 2nd Wednesday of June and December.
The FTSE Developed Large-Cap Index is comprised of approximately 1,000 companies in developed markets worldwide. Financial companies, other than real estate investment trusts (REITs) are excluded from the Index universe.
The Fund
The Fund had a total return of 8.03% and the Pacer Global Cash Cows Dividend Index total return was 8.69%. The FTSE Developed Large-Cap Index had a total return of 15.79%. There were several factors that contributed to performance. Following the market bottom in February, high dividend stocks lagged the benchmark indexes, as investors turned their focus towards cyclical stocks with higher exposure to the economic recovery. This is not an unusual experience, as higher stocks tend to provide their best performance during flat or negative market periods, where investors seek the stability of high dividend paying companies. During the fiscal year, three top sectors that contributed to performance were Information technology at 21.78%, Industrials at 23.66%, and Health Care at 11.03%. The three sectors that had the lowest contribution to performance were Real Estate at -6.39%, Telecommunication Services at -4.36%, and Utilities at -6.04%. The Fund had a weighting of 35.24% U.S. and 64.76% International exposure at the end of the period. This allowed the fund to capture the returns of the higher yielding international companies. The return for each of those categories during that period is 14.03% and 5.63%, respectively. The top three countries that contributed most to the positive performance were the U.S., Japan and Switzerland. The fund uses a rules based methodology that uses quality and value screens to select top constituents from the index universe. Free Cash Flow indicates a company is generating more cash than it needs to run the business and can invest in growth opportunities. Sector performance numbers reflect their total return during the period.
Pacer US Cash Cows 100 ETF
The Pacer US Cash Cows 100 ETF (the “Fund”) is an exchange traded fund that seeks to track the total return performance, before fees and expenses, of the Pacer US Cash Cows 100 Index (the “Index”).
The Index
The Index uses an objective, rules-based methodology to provide exposure to large and mid-capitalization U.S. companies with high free cash flow yields. Companies with high free cash flow yields are commonly referred to as “cash cows”.
The initial index universe is derived from the component companies of the Russell 1000 Index. The initial universe of companies is screened based on their average projected free
7
Pacer Funds
cash flows and earnings (if available) over each of the next two fiscal years. Companies with no forward year estimates available for free cash flows or earnings will remain in the Index universe. Companies with negative average projected free cash flows or earnings are removed from the Index universe. Additionally, financial companies, other than real estate investment trusts (“REITs”), are excluded from the Index universe.
The remaining companies are ranked by their free cash flow yield for the trailing twelve month period. The equity securities of the 100 companies with the highest free cash flow yield are included in the Index.
At the time of each rebalance of the Index, the companies included in the Index are weighted in proportion to their trailing twelve month free cash flow, and weightings are capped at 2% of the weight of the Index for any individual company. As of December 8, 2016, the companies included in the Index had a market capitalization of $1.48 billion to $598.3 billion. The index is reconstituted and rebalanced quarterly as of the close of business on the 3rd Friday of March, June, September, and December based on data as of the 1st Friday of the applicable rebalance month.
The Fund
The Fund’s inception date was December 16, 2016. The Fund had a since inception total return of 4.87%. The Pacer US Cash Cows 100 Index was 5.11%. The Russell 1000 Index had a total return of 6.32%. There were several factors that contributed to positive performance. The three top sectors for contribution to performance during this period were Information Technology at 15.01%, Consumer Staples at 7.57%, and Industrials at 3.54%. The three sectors that had the lowest contribution to performance were Health Care at -.80%, Consumer Discretionary at -3.35%, and Energy at -10.47%. The fund uses a rules based methodology that uses quality and value screens to select top constituents from the index universe. Free Cash Flow indicates a company is generating more cash than it needs to run the business and can invest in growth opportunities. High Free Cash Flow yield stocks have historically performed well in most market cycles, with the exception of the mega growth cycles like the 1990s where stocks with high cash flow yields lagged the market. Sector performance numbers reflect their total return during the period.

The Pacer Global Cash Cows Dividend Index uses an objective, rules-based methodology to provide exposure to global companies with high dividend yield backed by a high free cash flow yield. The initial index universe is derived from the component companies of the FTSE Developed Large Cap Total Return Index.

Companies with negative average projected free cash flows or earnings are removed from the Index universe. Additionally, financial companies, other than real estate investment trusts, are excluded from the Index universe. The remaining companies are ranked by their free cash flow yield for the trailing twelve month period. The 300 companies with the highest free cash flow yield are then ranked by their dividend yield. The equity securities of the 100 companies with the highest dividend yield are included in the Index.

EXPENSE EXAMPLE
For the Periods Ended April 30, 2017 (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of a Fund, you pay ongoing expenses, such as advisory fees, and other fund expenses. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. Please note, the expenses shown in the tables are meant to highlight ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. You may pay brokerage commissions on your purchase and sale of Fund shares, which are not reflected in the following examples. Each example is 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 columns under the heading entitled “Actual” help you estimate the actual expenses you paid over the period. The “Actual Ending Account Value” shown is derived from a Fund’s actual return and the “Actual Expenses Paid During Period” show the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in a Fund. To estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this 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 column under the heading untitled “Actual Expenses Paid During Period”.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The columns under the heading entitled “Hypothetical” provide information about hypothetical account value and hypothetical expenses based on a Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s return. 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.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs which may be applicable to your account. Therefore, the last column of the table (Hypothetical Expenses Paid During Period) 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.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION
Pacer Trendpilot™ 750 ETF, Pacer Trendpilot™ 450 ETF, Pacer Trendpilot™ 100 ETF, Pacer Trendpilot™ European Index ETF, Pacer Global Cash Cows Dividend ETF and Pacer US Cash Cows 100 ETF (individually the “Fund” or collectively the “Funds”) are series of Pacer Funds Trust (the “Trust”), a Delaware statutory trust organized on August 12, 2014. The Trust is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company and the offering of the Funds’ shares (“Shares”) is registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The investment objectives of the Funds are to seek to track the total return performance, before fees and expenses, of the Pacer Wilshire US Large-Cap Trendpilot Total Return Index, the Pacer Wilshire US Mid-Cap Trendpilot Total Return Index, the Pacer NASDAQ-100 Trendpilot Total Return Index, the Pacer Trendpilot European Total Return Index, the Pacer Global Cash Cows Dividend Total Return Index and the Pacer US Cash Cows 100 Index, respectively. Pacer Trendpilot™ 750 ETF, Pacer Trendpilot™ 450 ETF, and Pacer Trendpilot™ 100 ETF commenced operations on June 11, 2015. Pacer Trendpilot™ European Index ETF commenced operations on December 14, 2015. Pacer Global Cash Cows Dividend ETF commenced operations on February 22, 2016. Pacer US Cash Cows 100 ETF commenced operations on December 16, 2016. Each of the Funds are non-diversified series of the Trust.
Shares of the Funds are listed and traded on the BATS Exchange, Inc. (“BATS”). Market prices for the shares may be different from their net asset value (“NAV”). The Funds issue and redeem shares on a continuous basis at NAV only in large blocks of shares, called “Creation Units,” which generally consist of 50,000 shares. Creation Units are issued and redeemed principally in-kind for securities included in a specified universe. Once created, Shares generally trade in the secondary market at market prices that change throughout the day in amounts less than a Creation Unit. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, Shares are not redeemable securities of a Fund. Shares of a Fund may only be purchased directly from or redeemed directly to a Fund by certain financial institutions (“Authorized Participants”). An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker-dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a DTC participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with Pacer Financial, Inc. (the “Distributor”). Most retail investors do not qualify as Authorized Participants nor have the resources to buy and sell whole Creation Units. Therefore, they are unable to purchase or redeem the shares directly from a Fund. Rather, most retail investors may purchase Shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker and are subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees.

Pacer Funds
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
April 30, 2017 (Continued)
The Funds each currently offer one class of Shares, which have no front end sales loads, no deferred sales charges, and no redemption fees. A purchase (i.e., creation) transaction fee is imposed for the transfer and other transaction costs associated with the purchase of Creation Units. Pacer Trendpilot™ 750 ETF charges $750, Pacer Trendpilot™ 450 ETF charges $500, Pacer Trendpilot™ 100 ETF charges $250, Pacer Trendpilot™ European Index ETF charges $5,000, Pacer Global Cash Cows Dividend ETF charges $1,500, and Pacer US Cash Cows 100 ETF charges $250 for the standard fixed creation fee. For the Pacer Trendpilot™ 750 ETF, Pacer Trendpilot™ 450 ETF, Pacer Trendpilot™ 100 ETF, and the Pacer Trendpilot™ European Index ETF, the standard fixed creation transaction fee is $200 when the Deposit Securities include only U.S. Treasury bills. In addition, a variable fee may be charged on all cash transactions or substitutes for Creation Units of up to a maximum of 2% as a percentage of the value of the Creation Units subject to the transaction. Variable fees received by each Fund are displayed in the Capital Share Transaction section of the Statement of Changes in Net Assets. Each Fund may issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, with no par value. Shares of each Fund have equal rights and privileges with respect to such Fund.
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of the financial statements. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Funds are investment companies that follow the accounting and reporting guidelines of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 applicable to investment companies.
A. | Investment Valuation. Securities listed on a securities exchange, market or automated quotation system for which quotations are readily available, are valued at the last quoted sale price on the primary exchange or market (foreign or domestic) on which they are traded, except for securities listed on NASDAQ Global Market (“NASDAQ”). If, on a particular day, there is no such reported sale, then the most recent quoted bid price will be used. For securities traded on NASDAQ, the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”) will be used. If a Fund holds foreign shares of a security for which there is no reported volume, and there is an actively trading local version of the security, the last quoted sale price of the local security shall be used. Prices denominated in foreign currencies are converted to U.S. dollar equivalents at the current exchange rate. |
Investments in other open-end investment companies, including money market funds, are valued at the investment company’s net asset value per share, with the exception of exchange-traded open-end investment companies, which are priced as equity securities described above. |
120
Pacer Funds
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
April 30, 2017 (Continued)
Fixed-income securities are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from independent pricing services in accordance with the procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees (the “Board”). The independent pricing services may employ methodologies that utilize market transactions (if the security is actively traded), broker-dealer supplied valuations, or matrix pricing. Short-term securities that have maturities of less than 60 days, at the time of purchase, are valued at amortized cost, which, when combined with accrued interest, approximates market value. | |
Any securities for which there are no readily available market quotations and other assets will be valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by the Fair Value Pricing Committee using the Fair Value Procedures approved by the Board. | |
As described above, the Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of their investments on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuations methods. The three levels of inputs are: |
Level 1 – | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access. | |
Level 2 – | Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data. | |
Level 3 – | Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available; representing the Funds’ own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available. |
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. | |
The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. |

Transfers between levels are recognized at the end of the reporting period. During the fiscal year/period ended April 30, 2017, the Funds recognized no transfers to or from Levels 1, 2, or 3. | |
B. | Foreign Currency. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions. The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on |

investments from fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments. The Funds report net realized foreign exchange gains or losses that arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the differences between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent gains and losses arise from changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates. | |
C. | Federal Income Taxes. The Funds comply with the requirements of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, necessary to qualify as regulated investment companies and distribute substantially all net taxable investment income and net realized gains to shareholders in a manner which results in no tax cost to the Funds. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. As of and during the fiscal year/period ended April 30, 2017, the Funds did not have any tax positions that did not meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. As of and during the fiscal year/period ended April 30, 2017, the Funds did not have liabilities for any unrecognized tax benefits on uncertain tax positions as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. The Funds are subject to examination by U.S. taxing authorities for the tax periods since each Fund’s commencement of operations. |
D. | Security Transactions and Investment Income. Investment securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Gains and losses realized on sales of securities are computed on the basis of highest amortized cost. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are accreted and amortized over the lives of the respective securities. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable tax rules and regulations. |
E. | Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions to shareholders from net investment income for the Funds are declared and paid at least on an annual basis and net realized gains on securities normally are declared and paid on an annual basis. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. |
F. | Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make 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 the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |

G. | Share Valuation. The NAV per share of each Fund is calculated by dividing the sum of the value of the securities held by the Fund, plus cash and other assets, minus all liabilities (including estimated accrued expenses) by the total number of shares outstanding for the Fund, rounded to the nearest cent. The Funds’ shares will not be priced on the days on which the BATS is closed for trading. The offering and redemption price per share for each Fund is equal to the Fund’s net asset value per share. |
H. | Guarantees and Indemnifications. In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. Each Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be against the Funds that have not yet occurred. |
I. | Reclassification of Capital Accounts. Additionally, U.S. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets relating to permanent differences be reclassified between financial and tax reporting.

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).

The Funds were not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting.

An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities and cash owned as of April 30, 2017, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTE 5 – BOARD CONSIDERATIONS IN APPROVING THE INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT FOR THE FUNDS |
Pacer US Cash Cows 100 ETF
The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Pacer Funds Trust (the “Trust”), including the Trustees who are not “interested persons,” as defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940, of the Trust (the “Independent Trustees”), attended an in-person meeting held on September 19, 2016 (the “Meeting”), called for the purpose of, among other things, the consideration of, and voting on, the approval of the investment advisory agreement (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) between the Trust and Pacer Advisors, Inc. (the “Advisor”) with respect to the Pacer US Cash Cows 100 ETF (the “Fund”).
Prior to reaching the conclusion to approve the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Independent Trustees requested and obtained from the Advisor such information as the Independent Trustees deemed reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement. In addition, the Board received a memorandum from fund counsel regarding the responsibilities of the Board with respect to the approval of investment advisory agreements. Prior to the Meeting, the Board obtained and reviewed a variety of information, including certain comparative information regarding the Fund’s proposed expenses relative to the expenses of other comparable funds. The Independent Trustees carefully evaluated this information and were advised by independent legal counsel with respect to their deliberations.
At the Meeting, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, evaluated a number of factors and various materials in connection with the approval process, including: (1) a copy of the proposed Investment Advisory Agreement; (2) the Advisor’s responses to a questionnaire designed to provide the Board with information reasonably necessary to

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

evaluate the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement; (3) the Advisor’s Form ADV disclosures; (4) information describing the nature, quality and extent of services that the Advisor will provide to the Fund, and the proposed advisory fees payable to the Advisor for its services; (5) certain comparative information regarding the Fund’s proposed expenses relative to the expenses of other comparable funds; (6) a copy of the Trust’s registration statement that included the Fund; and (7) information regarding the financial condition of the Advisor. Representatives from the Advisor, along with other Trust service providers, presented additional information and participated in question and answer sessions at the Meetings to help the Board evaluate the Advisor’s services, fees and other aspects of the Investment Advisory Agreement.
In considering the approval of the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Board considered various factors that they determined were relevant, including: (i) the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Advisor; and (ii) the fees to be paid to the Advisor, as discussed in further detail below.
• | Nature, Extent and Quality of Services to be Provided by the Advisor. The Board reviewed the scope of services to be provided by the Advisor under the Investment Advisory Agreement and determined that the Advisor was capable of providing the necessary advisory services to the Fund, as indicated by the firm’s management capabilities and the professional qualifications and experience of its portfolio managers. Among other things, the Trustees considered the quality of the Adviser’s portfolio management personnel and the level of services provided to the existing exchange traded funds managed by the Advisor. The Board also considered other services to be provided to the Fund by the Advisor, such as selecting broker-dealers for executing portfolio transactions, monitoring adherence to the Fund’s investment restrictions, and monitoring compliance with various Fund policies and procedures and with applicable securities regulations. Based on the factors above, as well as those discussed below, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided to the Fund by the Advisor. | |
• | Costs of Services to be Provided to the Fund and Profitability. In considering the advisory fees payable by the Fund to the Advisor and such Fund’s expected expense ratio, the Board reviewed certain statistical information provided by the Advisor and the Trust’s administrator that compared the Fund’s expenses to those of comparable funds in the Fund’s peer groups, as determined by the administrator and the Advisor. In the report, the Fund’s expected expense ratio was compared to those of other funds with shared key characteristics determined by the administrator and Advisor to comprise the Fund’s applicable peer groups. The Board also noted that the Advisor had contractually agreed to pay all operating expenses of the Fund, including the cost of transfer agency, custody, |

fund administration, legal, audit and other services, except interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and other expenses in connection with the execution of portfolio transactions, and extraordinary and non-routine expenses. The Board also evaluated the compensation and benefits expected to be received by the Advisor from its relationship with the Fund, taking into account projections of the Advisor’s anticipated profitability at different asset levels. Based on the factors above, as well as those discussed below, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the Fund’s advisory fee was reasonable in light of the nature and quality of the services expected to be rendered by the Advisor. | ||
• | Performance of the Fund and Economies of Scale. Because the Fund was new and had not commenced operations, they did not yet have an investment performance record for the Board to review and consider. Similarly, it was not possible for the Board to review and consider the extent to which economies of scale would be realized by the Advisor as the assets of the Fund grow. Accordingly, the Board did not make any conclusions regarding the Fund’s investment performance or the extent to which economies of scale would be realized by the Advisor as the assets of the Fund grow, but will do so during future considerations of the Investment Advisory Agreement. |
Based on the Board’s deliberations and its evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously: (a) concluded that the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement are fair and reasonable; (b) concluded that the Advisor’s fees are reasonable in light of the nature and quality of the services expected to be rendered by the Advisor to the Fund; and (c) agreed to approve the Investment Advisory Agreement for an initial term of two years. In its deliberations, the Board did not identify any particular factor (or conclusion with respect thereto) or single piece of information that was all-important, controlling or determinative of its decision, but considered all of the factors together, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors (and conclusions with respect thereto) and information.

In considering the advisory fees payable by the Funds to the Advisor and each Fund’s expense ratio, the Board reviewed data compiled by the Advisor from an unaffiliated third party proprietary database comparing the expense ratios and performance of the Funds with the expense ratios and performance of other ETFs having similar investment objectives (the “Peer Group”). The Board compared each Fund’s expense ratio to the net expense ratios (i.e., expense ratios after any fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements) of the ETFs in each Fund’s Peer Group as of February 28, 2017. Except with respect to the Pacer Trendpilot™ 100 ETF, the Board noted that expense ratio of each Fund was above the median and average, but below the maximum, expense ratio of the ETFs in each such Fund’s Peer Group. With respect to the Pacer Trendpilot™ 100 ETF, the Board noted that expense ratio of such Fund was slightly above the maximum expense ratio of the ETFs in such Fund’s Peer Group and discussed with the Advisor the reasons therefor. The Board also noted that the Advisor had contractually agreed to pay all operating expenses of each Fund, including the cost of transfer agency, custody, fund administration, legal, audit and other services, except interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and other expenses in connection with the execution of portfolio transactions, and extraordinary and non-routine expenses. It was noted that this contractual agreement cannot be changed without shareholder approval. The Board also evaluated the compensation and benefits received by the Advisor from its relationship with the Funds, taking into account assessments of the Advisor’s anticipated profitability at different asset levels. Based on the factors above, as well as those discussed below, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that each Fund’s advisory fee was reasonable in light of the nature and quality of the services expected to be rendered by the Advisor. | |
• | Performance of each Fund and Economies of Scale. The Board reviewed the performance of the Funds since inception, including tracking difference (i.e., the difference of the returns between a fund and the underlying index it seeks to track). The Board noted that the Advisor discussed at each quarterly meeting the |

factors contributing to each Fund’s investment performance. In particular, the Board considered the investment performance of each Fund relative to its stated investment objective to seek investment results that correspond (before fees and expenses) to the price and yield performance of the applicable underlying index that is referenced in the Fund’s investment objective, and the Advisor’s success in achieving each Fund’s objective. The Board also reviewed and considered the extent to which economies of scale had been and/or would be realized by the Advisor as the assets of the Funds grew or may grow in the future. |
Based on the Board’s deliberations and its evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously: (a) concluded that the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement are fair and reasonable; (b) concluded that the Advisor’s fees are reasonable in light of the nature and quality of the services expected to be rendered by the Advisor to the Funds; and (c) agreed to approve the continuation of the Investment Advisory Agreement for an additional term of one year. In its deliberations, the Board did not identify any particular factor (or conclusion with respect thereto) or single piece of information that was all-important, controlling or determinative of its decision, but considered all of the factors together, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors (and conclusions with respect thereto) and information.
NOTE 6 – TRUSTEES AND OFFICERS
The business of the Funds is managed under the direction of the Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees formulates the general policies of the Funds and meets periodically to review the Funds’ performance, monitor investment activities and practices, and discuss other matters affecting the Funds. The Trustees are fiduciaries for the Funds’ shareholders and are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware in this regard. The names and addresses of the Trustees and officers of the Trust are listed below along with a description of their principal occupations over at least the last five years.

Item 2. Code of Ethics.
The registrant has adopted a code of ethics that applies to the registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer. The registrant has not made any substantive amendments to its code of ethics during the period covered by this report. The registrant has not granted any waivers from any provisions of the code of ethics during the period covered by this report.
A copy of the registrant’s Code of Ethics is filed herewith.
Item 3. Audit Committee Financial Expert.
The registrant’s board of trustees has determined that there is at least one audit committee financial expert serving on its audit committee. Deborah Wolk is the “audit committee financial expert” and is considered to be “independent” as each term is defined in Item 3 of Form N‑CSR.
Item 4. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.
The registrant has engaged its principal accountant to perform audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services during the past two fiscal years. “Audit services” refer to performing an 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. “Audit-related services” refer to the assurance and related services by the principal accountant that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit. “Tax services” refer to professional services rendered by the principal accountant for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning. No “Other services” were provided by the principal accountant were. The following table details the aggregate fees billed or expected to be billed for each of the last two fiscal years for audit fees, audit-related fees, tax fees and other fees by the principal accountant.
FYE 04/30/2017 | FYE 04/30/2016 | |
Audit Fees | $51,000 | $64,000 |
Audit-Related Fees | $0 | $0 |
Tax Fees | $6,000 | $0 |
All Other Fees | $0 | $0 |
The audit committee has adopted pre-approval policies and procedures that require the audit committee to pre‑approve all audit and non‑audit services of the registrant, including services provided to any entity affiliated with the registrant.
The percentage of fees billed by Sanville & Company applicable to non-audit services pursuant to waiver of pre-approval requirement were as follows:
FYE 04/30/2017 | FYE 04/30/2016 | |
Audit-Related Fees | 0% | 0% |
Tax Fees | 0% | 0% |
All Other Fees | 0% | 0% |
All of the principal accountant’s hours spent on auditing the registrant’s financial statements were attributed to work performed by full‑time permanent employees of the principal accountant. (If more than 50 percent of the accountant’s hours were spent to audit the registrant's financial statements for the most recent fiscal year, state how many hours were attributed to work performed by persons other than the principal accountant's full-time, permanent employees.)
The following table indicates the non-audit fees billed or expected to be billed by the registrant’s accountant for services to the registrant and to the registrant’s investment adviser (and any other controlling entity, etc.—not sub-adviser) for the last two years. The audit committee of the board of trustees/directors has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant's investment adviser is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant's independence and has concluded that the provision of such non-audit services by the accountant has not compromised the accountant’s independence.
Non-Audit Related Fees | FYE 04/30/2017 | FYE 04/30/2016 |
Registrant | $0 | $0 |
Registrant’s Investment Adviser | $0 | $0 |
