Effective January 1, 2025, the Adviser acquired the trading team previously employed by ZEGA Financial, LLC (“ZEGA”), the former sub-adviser to the Funds. In connection with this transaction, ZEGA ceased operations as a registered investment adviser and resigned as sub-adviser. The Adviser has assumed full management responsibilities for the Funds. Jay Pestrichelli, a key member of the Funds’ portfolio management team previously employed by ZEGA, continues to serve as a portfolio manager for the Funds, now as an employee of the Adviser. There were no other portfolio manager changes for the Funds in connection with the transaction. The transaction did not result in any changes to the Funds’ investment objective, principal investment strategies, or fees. The Funds continues to be managed in accordance with its stated policies and objectives, ensuring continuity for Fund shareholders.
| NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
A. Security Valuation. Equity securities, including Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”), listed on a securities exchange, market or automated quotation system for which quotations are readily available (except for securities traded on The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (the “NASDAQ”), including securities traded over-the-counter, are valued at the last quoted sale price on the primary exchange or market (foreign or domestic) on which they are traded on the valuation date (or at approximately 4:00 p.m. EST if a security’s primary exchange is normally open at that time), or, if there is no such reported sale on the valuation date, at the most recent quoted bid price or mean between the most recent quoted bid and ask prices for long and short positions. For a security that trades on multiple exchanges, the primary exchange will generally be considered the exchange on which the security is generally most actively traded. For securities traded on the NASDAQ, the NASDAQ Official Closing Price will be used. Prices of securities traded on the securities exchange will be obtained from recognized independent pricing agents each day that the Funds are open for business.
Debt securities are valued by using an evaluated mean of the bid and ask prices provided by independent pricing agents. The independent pricing agents may employ methodologies that utilize actual market transactions (if the security is actively traded), broker-dealer supplied valuations, or other methodologies designed to identify the market value for such securities. In arriving at valuations, such methodologies generally consider factors such as security prices, yields, maturities, call features, ratings and developments relating to specific securities.
Options contracts are valued using the mean/mid of quoted bid and ask spread prices, as provided by independent pricing vendors.
FLexible EXchange® Options (“FLEX Options”) listed on an exchange will typically be valued at a model-based price provided by the exchange at the official close of that exchange’s trading day. However, when the Funds’ options have a same-day market trade price, this same-day market trade price will be used for FLEX Option values instead of the exchange’s model-based price. If the exchange on which the option is traded is unable to provide a model price, model-based FLEX Options prices will additionally be provided by a backup third-party pricing provider. If the pricing vendor is not available to provide a model price for that day, the value of a FLEX Option will be determined by the Valuation Designee in accordance with the Valuation Procedures (as defined below). In instances where in the same trading day a particular FLEX Option is both represented in an all-cash basket (either a creation unit or redemption unit), as well as in an in-kind basket (either a creation unit or redemption unit), for valuation purposes that trading day the Funds will default to use the trade price for both instances, rather than using the model price otherwise available for the in-kind transaction.
Under Rule 2a-5 of the 1940 Act, a fair value will be determined by the Valuation Designee (as defined in Rule 2a-5) in accordance with the Pricing and Valuation Policy and Fair Value Procedures, as applicable, of the Adviser, subject to oversight by the Board. When a security is “fair valued,” consideration is given to the facts and circumstances relevant to the particular situation, including a review of various factors set forth in the Adviser’s Pricing and Valuation Policy and Fair Value Procedures, as applicable. Fair value pricing is an inherently subjective process, and no single standard exists for determining fair value. Different funds could reasonably arrive at different values for the same security.
As described above, the Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of its investments on a recurring basis. U.S. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation 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.
32
| Notes to the Financial Statements | YieldMax ETFs |
July 31, 2025
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.
The following is a summary of the inputs used to value each Funds’ investments as of July 31, 2025:

B. Derivative Instruments. As the buyer of a call option, each Fund has a right to buy the underlying reference instrument (e.g., a currency or security) at the exercise price at any time during the option period (for American style options). Each Fund may enter into closing sale transactions with respect to call options, exercise them, or permit them to expire. For example, a Fund may buy call options on underlying reference instruments that it intends to buy with the goal of limiting the risk of a substantial increase in their market price before the purchase is affected. Unless the price of the underlying reference instrument changes sufficiently, a call option purchased by a Fund may expire without any value to the Fund, in which case such Fund would experience a loss to the extent of the premium paid for the option plus related transaction costs.
As the buyer of a put option, each Fund has the right to sell the underlying reference instrument at the exercise price at any time during the option period (for American style options). Like a call option, each Fund may enter into closing sale transactions with respect to put options, exercise them, or permit them to expire. A Fund may buy a put option on an underlying reference instrument owned by the Fund (a protective put) as a hedging technique in an attempt to protect against an anticipated decline in the market value of the underlying reference instrument. Such hedge protection is provided only during the life of the put option when a Fund, as the buyer of the put option, is able to sell the underlying reference instrument at the put exercise price, regardless of any decline in the underlying instrument’s market price. Each Fund may also seek to offset a decline in the value of the underlying reference instrument through appreciation in the value of the put option. Put options may also be purchased with the intent of protecting unrealized appreciation of an instrument when the Sub-Advisers deem it desirable to continue to hold the instrument because of tax or other considerations. The premium paid for the put option and any transaction costs would reduce any short-term capital gain that may be available for distribution when the instrument is eventually sold. Buying put options at a time when the buyer does not own the underlying reference instrument allows the buyer to benefit from a decline in the market price of the underlying reference instrument, which generally increases the value of the put option.
If a put option is not terminated in a closing sale transaction when it has remaining value, and if the market price of the underlying reference instrument remains equal to or greater than the exercise price during the life of the put option, the buyer would not make any gain upon exercise of the option and would experience a loss to the extent of the premium paid for the option plus related transaction costs. In order for the purchase of a put option to be profitable, the market price of the underlying reference instrument must decline sufficiently below the exercise price to cover the premium and transaction costs.
Writing options may permit the writer to generate additional income in the form of the premium received for writing the option. The writer of an option may have no control over when the underlying reference instruments must be sold (in the case of a call option) or purchased (in the case of a put option) because the writer may be notified of exercise at any time prior to the expiration of the option (for American style options). In general, though, options are infrequently exercised prior to expiration. Whether or not an option expires unexercised, the writer retains the amount of the premium. Writing “covered” call options means that the writer owns the underlying reference instrument that is subject to the call option. Call options may also be written on reference instruments that the writer does not own.
FLEX Options are customized option contracts available through national securities exchanges that are guaranteed for settlement by the Options Clearing Corporation (“OCC”). FLEX Options are listed on a U.S. national securities exchange. FLEX Options provide
36
| Notes to the Financial Statements | YieldMax ETFs |
July 31, 2025
investors with the ability to customize assets referenced by the options, exercise prices, exercise styles (i.e., American-style, exercisable any time prior to the expiration date, or European-style, exercisable only on the option expiration date) and expiration dates, while achieving price discovery in competitive, transparent auctions markets and avoiding the counterparty exposure of OTC options positions. Each option contract entitles the holder thereof to purchase (for the call options) or sell (for the put options) shares of the reference asset at the strike price. A Fund’s portfolio may include several types of FLEX Options, including both purchased and written put and call options (as further described below). The FLEX Options are all European style options, which means that they are exercisable at a predetermined specified price (the “strike price”) only on the FLEX Option’s expiration date.
If a Fund writes a covered call option, any underlying reference instruments that are held by the Fund and are subject to the call option will be earmarked on the books of such Fund as segregated to satisfy its obligations under the option. A Fund will be unable to sell the underlying reference instruments that are subject to the written call option until it either effects a closing transaction with respect to the written call, or otherwise satisfies the conditions for release of the underlying reference instruments from segregation. As the writer of a covered call option, a Fund gives up the potential for capital appreciation above the exercise price of the option should the underlying reference instrument rise in value. If the value of the underlying reference instrument rises above the exercise price of the call option, the reference instrument will likely be “called away,” requiring a Fund to sell the underlying instrument at the exercise price. In that case, the Fund will sell the underlying reference instrument to the option.
By virtue of each Fund’s investments in option contracts, equity ETFs and equity indices, the Funds are exposed to common stocks indirectly which subjects the Funds to equity market risk. Common stocks are generally exposed to greater risk than other types of securities, such as preferred stock and debt obligations, because common stockholders generally have inferior rights to receive payment from specific issuers. Equity securities may experience sudden, unpredictable drops in value or long periods of decline in value. This may occur because of factors that affect securities markets generally or factors affecting specific issuers, industries, or sectors in which the Funds invest.
Each Fund has adopted financial reporting rules and regulations that require enhanced disclosure regarding derivatives and hedging activity intending to improve financial reporting of derivative instruments by enabling investors to understand how an entity uses derivatives, how derivatives are accounted for, and how derivative instruments affect an entity’s results of operations and financial position.

July 31, 2025
The Funds are not subject to master netting agreements; therefore, no additional disclosures regarding netting arrangements are required.
C. Federal Income Taxes. Each Fund has elected to be taxed as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) and intends to distribute substantially all taxable income to its shareholders and otherwise comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to RICs. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes or excise taxes has been made.
In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to RICs, each Fund intends to declare as dividends in each calendar year at least 98% of its net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and at least 98.2% of its net realized capital gains (earned during the twelve months ended October 31) plus undistributed amounts, if any, from prior years. As a RIC, each Fund is subject to a 4% excise tax that is imposed if a Fund does not distribute by the end of any calendar year at least the sum of (i) 98% of its ordinary income (not taking into account any capital gain or loss) for the calendar year and (ii) 98.2% of its capital gain in excess of its capital loss (adjusted for certain ordinary losses) for a one year period generally ending on October 31 of the calendar year (unless an election is made to use the Funds’ fiscal year). The Funds generally intend to distribute income and capital gains in the manner necessary to minimize (but not necessarily eliminate) the imposition of such excise tax. The Funds may retain income or capital gains and pay excise tax when it is determined that doing so is in the best interest of shareholders. Management evaluates the costs of the excise tax relative to the benefits of retaining income and capital gains, including that such undistributed amounts (net of the excise tax paid) remain available for investment by the Funds and are available to supplement future distributions. Tax expense is disclosed in the Statements of Operations, if applicable.
As of July 31, 2025, the Funds did not have any tax positions that did not meet the threshold of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Generally, tax authorities can examine all the tax returns filed for the last three years. The Funds identify their major tax jurisdiction as U.S. Federal and the Commonwealth of Delaware; however, the Funds are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits on uncertain tax positions as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations.
D. Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Investment securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Gains and losses realized on sales of securities are determined on a specific identification basis. Discounts/premiums on debt securities purchased are accreted/amortized over the life of the respective securities using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Other non-cash dividends are recognized as investment income at the fair value of the property received. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with each Fund’s understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.
Distributions received from the Funds’ investments in REITs may be characterized as ordinary income, net capital gains or return of capital. The proper characterization of REIT distributions is generally not known until after the end of each calendar year. As such, the Funds may use estimates in reporting the character of their income and distributions for financial statement purposes; otherwise, these amounts are recorded once the issuers provide the information about the actual composition of the distributions. The actual character of distributions to the Funds’ shareholders will be reflected on the Form 1099 received by shareholders after the end of the calendar year. Due to the nature of REIT investments, a portion of the distributions received by the Funds’ shareholders may represent a return of capital.
The Fund may invest in other investment companies (the “Underlying Funds”), including exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), mutual funds, or money market funds. Securities transactions are recorded on a trade-date basis. Realized gains and losses from the sale of securities are determined using the specific identification method. Dividend income and distributions from Underlying Funds are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income, if any, is recognized on an accrual basis. Investment income from securities of unaffiliated investment companies represents distributions received from those Underlying Funds and is recorded as dividend income. Distributions of capital gains received from Underlying Funds are recorded as “Realized Gain on Investments in Unaffiliated Investment Companies.” Distributions of income received are recorded as “Dividend Income.” Income and capital gains distributions received from Affiliated Funds are recorded as dividend income and realized gain, respectively. Realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments in Affiliated Funds are recorded in the Statements of Operations.
E. Return of Capital Distributions. During the period ended July 31, 2025, the FEAT ETF and FIVY ETF received $1,717,314 and $653,007, respectively, in distributions from portfolio companies that were classified as return of capital for tax purposes. These amounts are excluded from dividend income in the Statements of Operations and have been recorded as a reduction of the cost basis of the related investments.
F. Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions to shareholders from net investment income, if any, for the GPTY ETF, LFGY ETF, QDTY ETF, RDTY ETF, SDTY ETF, and CHPY ETF are declared and paid weekly. Distributions to shareholders from net investment
39
| Notes to the Financial Statements | YieldMax ETFs |
July 31, 2025
income, if any, for the FEAT ETF, FIVY ETF, WNTR ETF, BIGY ETF, RNTY ETF, and SOXY ETF are declared and paid monthly. Distributions to shareholders from net realized gains on securities, if any, for the Funds normally are declared and paid on an annual basis. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
G. Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
H. Share Valuation. The net asset value (“NAV”) per Share is calculated by dividing the sum of the value of the securities held by each Fund, plus cash or other assets, minus all liabilities by the total number of Shares outstanding for each Fund, rounded to the nearest cent. Fund Shares will not be priced on the days on which the NYSE Arca, Inc. (“NYSE”) or the NASDAQ are closed for trading.
I. Guarantees and Indemnifications. In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. 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. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
J. Illiquid Securities. Pursuant to Rule 22e-4 under the 1940 Act, the Funds have adopted a Board-approved Liquidity Risk Management Program (the “Program”) that requires, among other things, that each Fund limit its illiquid investments that are assets to no more than 15% of the value of the Fund’s net assets. An illiquid investment is any security that a Fund reasonably expects cannot be sold or disposed of in current market conditions in seven calendar days or less without the sale or disposition significantly changing the market value of the investment. If a Fund should be in a position where the value of illiquid investments held by the Fund exceeds 15% of the Fund’s net assets, the Fund will take such steps as set forth in the Program.
K. Derivatives Transactions. Pursuant to Rule 18f-4 under the 1940 Act, the SEC imposes limits on the amount of derivatives a fund can enter into, eliminates the asset segregation and cover framework arising from prior SEC guidance for covering derivatives and certain financial instruments currently used by funds to comply with Section 18 of the 1940 Act and treats derivatives as senior securities. Under Rule 18f-4, a fund’s derivatives exposure is limited through a value-at-risk test. Funds whose use of derivatives is more than a limited specified exposure amount are required to establish and maintain a comprehensive derivatives risk management program, subject to oversight by a fund’s board of trustees, and appoint a derivatives risk manager. The Funds implemented a Rule 18f-4 Derivative Risk Management Program that complies with Rule 18f-4.
L. Reclassification of Capital Accounts. U.S. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets relating to permanent differences be reclassified between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or NAV per Share. These reclassifications are primary due to adjustments for redemptions in-kind, and non-deductible excise tax paid. For the periods ended July 31, 2025, the following table shows the reclassifications made:
| Fund: | Paid-In Capital | Total
Distributable Earnings/(Accumulated Losses) | ||||||
| GPTY ETF | 16,338 | (16,338 | ) | |||||
| LFGY ETF | 601,661 | (601,661 | ) | |||||

The Funds may realize net capital gains (losses) resulting from in-kind redemptions, in which shareholders exchange Fund Shares for securities held by the Funds rather than for cash. Because such gains (losses) are not taxable to the Funds, and are not distributed to shareholders, they have been reclassified from accumulated gains to paid-in capital. During the periods ended July 31, 2025, the Funds realized the following amounts in net capital gains (losses) resulting from in-kind redemptions.
| Fund: | Redemptions In-Kind |
| GPTY ETF | 16,338 |

| NOTE 3 – PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS |
Artificial Intelligence Risk (GPTY ETF Only). Issuers engaged in artificial intelligence typically have high research and capital expenditures and, as a result, their profitability can vary widely, if they are profitable at all. The space in which they are engaged is highly competitive and issuers’ products and services may become obsolete very quickly. These companies are heavily dependent on intellectual property rights and may be adversely affected by loss or impairment of those rights. The issuers are also subject to legal, regulatory and political changes that may have a large impact on their profitability. A failure in an issuer’s product or even questions about the safety of the product could be devastating to the issuer, especially if it is the marquee product of the issuer. It can be difficult to accurately capture what qualifies as an artificial intelligence company.
Concentration Risk (FEAT ETF & FIVY ETF Only). To the extent that the Nasdaq Dorsey Wright Tactical Hybrid Option Income Strategy Index and the Nasdaq Dorsey Wright Tactical Option Income Strategy Index (the “Indexes”) and therefore, the Funds, concentrate in an industry, the Funds will be subject to the risk that economic, political, or other conditions that have a negative effect on that industry will negatively impact the Funds to a greater extent than if their assets were invested in a wider variety of industries. As of November 15, 2024, Index constituents assigned to the Consumer Cyclicals group of industries represented 40% of the Indexes and the Index constituents assigned to the Technology group of industries represented 40% of the Indexes.
Counterparty Risk (GPTY ETF, LFGY ETF, WNTR ETF, CHPY ETF, BIGY ETF, RNTY ETF & SOXY ETF Only). The Funds are subject to counterparty risk by virtue of their investments in options contracts. Transactions in some types of derivatives, including options, are required to be centrally cleared (“cleared derivatives”). In a transaction involving cleared derivatives, each Fund’s counterparty is a clearing house rather than a bank or broker. Since the Funds are not a member of clearing houses and only members of a clearing house (“clearing members”) can participate directly in the clearing house, the Funds will hold cleared derivatives through accounts at clearing members. In cleared derivatives positions, the Funds will make payments (including margin payments) to and receive payments from a clearing house through their accounts at clearing members. Customer funds held at a clearing organization in connection with any options contracts are held in a commingled omnibus account and are not identified to the name of the clearing member’s individual customers. As a result, assets deposited by the Funds with any clearing member as margin for options may, in certain circumstances, be used to satisfy losses of other clients of each Fund’s clearing member. In addition, although clearing members guarantee performance of their clients’ obligations to the clearing house, there is a risk that the assets of the Funds might not be fully protected in the event of the clearing member’s bankruptcy, as the Funds would be limited to recovering only a pro rata share of all available funds segregated on behalf of the clearing member’s customers for the relevant account class. The Funds are also subject to the risk that a limited number of clearing members are willing to transact on each Fund’s behalf, which heightens the risks associated with a clearing member’s default.
41
| Notes to the Financial Statements | YieldMax ETFs |
| July 31, 2025 |
This risk is greater for the Funds as they seek to hold options contracts on a single security, and not a broader range of options contracts, which may limit the number of clearing members that are willing to transact on each Fund’s behalf. If a clearing member defaults, the Funds could lose some or all of the benefits of a transaction entered into by the Funds with the clearing member. If the Funds cannot find a clearing member to transact with on each Fund’s behalf, the Funds may be unable to effectively implement their investment strategies.
Covered Call Strategy Risk (QDTY ETF, RDTY ETF & SDTY ETF Only). When the Funds sell call options, it receives cash but limits its opportunity to profit from an increase in the market value of the underlying asset to the exercise price (plus the premium received). The maximum potential gain on the underlying asset will be equal to the difference between the exercise price and the purchase price of the reference asset at the time the option is written, plus the premium received. In a rising market, the option may require an underlying asset to be sold at an exercise price that is lower than would be received if the underlying asset was sold at the market price. If a call expires, the Funds realize a gain in the amount of the premium received, but because there may have been a decline (unrealized loss) in the market value of the reference asset during the option period, the loss realized may exceed such gain. If the underlying asset declines by more than the option premium the Funds receive, there will be a loss on the overall position.
Additionally, because the Funds engage in daily sales of 0DTE options (zero days to expiration), the Funds may experience heightened volatility and rapid loss realization if market movements cause the sold options to be exercised before the end of the day, creating short-term losses that may affect daily returns. By selling out-of-the-money call options, the Funds’ upside potential is further limited, as any gains in the Nasdaq 100 Index (QDTY ETF’s Index), the Russell 2000 Index (RDTY ETF’s Index), and the S&P 500 Index (SDTY ETF’s Index) (each an “Index” and collectively the “Indexes”) value beyond the strike price of the sold calls may result in losses on these positions, reducing potential gains from the Funds’ synthetic exposure. While the premiums generated provide income, they may not fully protect against losses if the Indexes declines significantly. The deep-in-the-money calls used for synthetic exposure may not offer the same performance as directly holding the Indexes, leading to potential tracking issues where the Funds’ returns may diverge from the Indexes daily movements.
Crypto Industry Risk (LFGY ETF Only). Investing in the Crypto Industry involves substantial risks, including but not limited to market volatility, regulatory changes, technological obsolescence, and security vulnerabilities. Crypto Industry companies typically face significant volatility due to the nascent and rapidly evolving nature of the sector. High research and capital expenditures are common, which can result in substantial variability in profitability, or even sustained losses. The industry is intensely competitive, with technological advancements occurring at a rapid pace, potentially rendering existing products or services obsolete. These companies are heavily reliant on digital and intellectual property, including proprietary blockchain technology and cryptographic algorithms, and may be adversely affected by the loss, theft, or impairment of these assets. Furthermore, the Crypto Industry is subject to a complex and constantly changing legal, regulatory, and political landscape, which can have a substantial impact on the profitability and viability of companies within the sector. Regulatory actions or unfavorable legal rulings could significantly hinder operations or market access. Additionally, security breaches, hacking incidents, or failures in the underlying technology of a crypto asset or blockchain could have devastating effects on the issuer, particularly if the compromised asset or technology is central to the issuer’s business model. The Crypto Industry has been, and may continue to be, dependent on speculation. The identification and classification of Crypto Industry companies can be challenging, as the boundaries of the industry are often unclear and subject to interpretation.
| • Blockchain Risk. Companies involved in the crypto asset industry are subject to the risks associated with blockchain technology, the occurrence of which could negatively impact the value of such companies. These risks include (i) the risk that the integrity and viability of the consensus mechanism of the blockchain fails; (ii) the risk that the blockchain’s capacity to execute and settle transactions in a timely and predictable manner is compromised; (iii) the open source nature of blockchain technology which makes it vulnerable to being “forked” by users and miners/validators (i.e., creation of a new competing blockchain when a significant portion of the miners/validators adopt updates to the existing blockchain protocol); and (iv) development of so -called Layer 2 networks, including the “Lightning Network,” which are separate blockchains built on top of “Layer 1” blockchains, like the Bitcoin Blockchain, for the purpose of augmenting the throughput of the Layer 1 blockchain. Layer 2 blockchains are a relatively new and still developing technology and include certain risks, such as the potential for hacks, bugs or failures. |
| • Crypto Asset Trading Platform Risk. Companies involved in the crypto asset industry are subject to the risks associated with crypto asset trading platforms. Crypto asset trading platforms and other trading venues on which crypto assets trade are relatively new and, in most cases, largely unregulated and may therefore be more exposed to market manipulation, fraud and failure than established, regulated exchanges for securities, derivatives and other currencies. Crypto asset trading platforms may (and in certain cases have) become subject to enforcement actions by regulatory authorities. |

Derivatives Risk (GPTY ETF, LFGY ETF, WNTR ETF, QDTY ETF, RDTY ETF, SDTY ETF, CHPY ETF, BIGY ETF, RNTY ETF & SOXY ETF Only). Derivatives are financial instruments that derive value from the underlying reference asset or assets, such as stocks, bonds, or funds (including ETFs), interest rates or indexes. The Funds’ investments in derivatives may pose risks in addition to, and greater than, those associated with directly investing in securities or other ordinary investments, including risk related to the market, imperfect correlation with underlying investments or the Funds’ other portfolio holdings, higher price volatility, lack of availability, counterparty risk, liquidity, valuation and legal restrictions. The use of derivatives is a highly specialized activity that involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. The use of derivatives may result in larger losses or smaller gains than directly investing in securities. When a Fund uses derivatives, there may be an imperfect correlation between the value of the Underlying Security and the derivative, which may prevent the Fund from achieving its investment objective. Because derivatives often require only a limited initial investment, the use of derivatives may expose a Fund to losses in excess of those amounts initially invested. Less liquidity in the trading of the Fund’s FLEX Options could have an impact on the prices paid or received by the Fund for the FLEX Options in connection with creations and redemptions of the Fund’s shares. Depending on the nature of this impact to pricing, the Fund may be forced to pay more for redemptions (or receive less for creations) than the price at which it currently values the FLEX Options. Such overpayment or under collection may impact the value of the Fund and whether the Fund can satisfy its investment objective. In addition, the Funds’ investments in derivatives are subject to the following risks:
| • Options Contracts (GPTY ETF, LFGY ETF, WNTR ETF, CHPY ETF, BIGY ETF, RNTY ETF & SOXY ETF Only). The use of options contracts involves investment strategies and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. The prices of options are volatile and are influenced by, among other things, actual and anticipated changes in the value of the underlying instrument, including the anticipated volatility, which are affected by fiscal and monetary policies and by national and international political and economic events, changes in the actual or implied volatility or the reference asset, and the time remaining until the expiration of the option contract. For the Funds in particular, the value of the options contracts in which they invest are substantially influenced by the value of the Underlying Security. A Fund may experience substantial downside from specific option positions and certain option positions held by the Funds may expire worthless. The options held by the Funds are exercisable at the strike price on their expiration date. As an option approaches its expiration date, its value typically increasingly moves with the value of the underlying instrument. However, prior to such date, the value of an option generally does not increase or decrease at the same rate as the underlying instrument. There may at times be an imperfect correlation between the movement in the values of options contracts and the underlying instrument, and there may at times not be a liquid secondary market for certain options contracts. The value of the options held by a Fund will be determined based on market quotations or other recognized pricing methods. The Funds may also write call and put options, which includes the risk that the underlying instrument appreciates or depreciates sufficiently over the period to offset the net premium received by the Funds for the written option, resulting in a loss to the Funds. Additionally, to the extent a Fund maintains indirect exposure to an Underlying Security through the use of options contracts, as the options contracts it holds are exercised or expire it will enter into new options contracts, a practice referred to as “rolling.” If the expiring options contracts do not generate proceeds enough to cover the cost of entering into new options contracts, the Funds may experience losses. |
| • Options Contracts (QDTY ETF, RDTY ETF, & SDTY ETF Only). The use of options contracts, including deep-in-the-money ("deep ITM") and 0DTE options, involves investment strategies and risks that differ significantly from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. Options prices are highly volatile and influenced by multiple factors, including changes in the value of the underlying index or instrument, actual or implied volatility, time remaining until expiration, interest rates, fiscal and monetary policies, and national and international political or economic events. For the Funds, the value of the options contracts in which it invests is substantially influenced by the value of the Index’s and the unique characteristics of deep ITM and 0DTE options. While deep ITM options generally have a high delta, meaning their value moves almost in tandem with the underlying Index, prior to expiration, their price may not fully replicate the rate of change of the underlying instrument, leading to tracking differences. Additionally, 0DTE options are particularly sensitive to intraday price movements and volatility, which can exacerbate price swings and increase the risk of loss. |
The Funds may experience substantial downside risk from certain options positions, including the potential for purchased options to expire worthless, resulting in the loss of premiums paid. Additionally, selling (writing) options exposes the Funds to significant risks that can exceed the premiums received. When writing call options, the Funds face the risk of unlimited losses if the Index’s rise significantly, as it may be required to pay the difference between the strike price and the higher market value of the Indexes. Conversely, writing put options can lead to substantial losses if the Index’s decline significantly, as the Funds may be obligated to pay the difference between the strike price and the lower market value of the Indexes. These risks are heightened with 0DTE options, as their sensitivity to intraday price movements and volatility can lead to sudden and extreme losses within a single trading day.

The Funds may also encounter challenges in managing written options positions, particularly in volatile or illiquid markets, where closing or adjusting positions may be difficult or costly. Additionally, the process of rolling options positions—replacing expiring options with new contracts to maintain exposure—can involve significant transaction costs and expose the Funds to additional risks, such as adverse price movements during the roll period or reduced liquidity in the desired contracts. The Funds may also face margin requirements associated with written options, which could require the Funds to liquidate other assets to meet these obligations, potentially at unfavorable prices. Collectively, these risks may result in significant losses or reduced investment efficiency for the Funds.
Distribution Risk (GPTY ETF, LFGY ETF, QDTY ETF, RDTY ETF & SDTY ETF Only). As part of each Fund’s investment objective to provide current income, the Funds seek to provide weekly income distributions. There is no assurance that the Funds will make a distribution in any given week. If the Funds do make distributions, the amounts of such distributions will likely vary greatly from one distribution to the next. Additionally, weekly distributions, if any, may consist of returns of capital, which would decrease each Fund’s NAV and trading price over time. As a result, an investor may suffer significant losses to their investment.
Distribution Risk (BIGY ETF, RNTY ETF & SOXY ETF Only). As part of each Fund’s investment objective to provide current income, the Funds seek to provide monthly income distributions. There is no assurance that the Funds will make a distribution in any given month. If the Funds do make distributions, the amounts of such distributions will likely vary greatly from one distribution to the next. Additionally, monthly distributions, if any, may consist of returns of capital, which would decrease each Fund’s NAV and trading price over time. As a result, an investor may suffer significant losses to their investment.
Equity Market Risk (FEAT ETF & FIVY ETF Only). The prices of equity securities rise and fall daily. These price movements may result from factors affecting individual issuers, industries or the stock market as a whole. In addition, equity markets tend to move in cycles which may cause stock prices to fall over a short and extended periods of time. In a declining stock market, stock prices for all companies (including those in the Funds’ portfolios) may decline, regardless of their long-term prospects.
MSTR Price Appreciation Risk (WNTR ETF Only). As part of the Fund’s synthetic covered put strategy, the Fund purchases and sells call and put option contracts that are based on the share price of MSTR common stock. This strategy subjects the Fund to certain of the same risks as if it shorted shares of the Underlying Security, even though it does not. By virtue of the Fund’s indirect inverse exposure to changes in the share price of the Underlying Security, the Fund is subject to the risk that the Underlying Security’s share price increases. If the share price of the Underlying Security increases, the Fund will likely lose value and, as a result, the Fund may suffer significant losses. The Fund may also be subject to the following risks:
Indirect Investment in MSTR Risk. MicroStrategy Incorporated is not affiliated with the Trust, the Fund, the Adviser, or their respective affiliates and is not involved with this offering in any way and has no obligation to consider your Shares in taking any corporate actions that might affect the value of Shares. Investors in the Fund will not have voting rights and will not be able to influence the management of MicroStrategy Incorporated but will be exposed to the performance of the Underlying Security. Investors in the Fund will not have rights to receive dividends or other distributions or any other rights with respect to the Underlying Security, but will be adversely impacted by increases in the share price of the Underlying Security.
Underlying Security Trading Risk. The trading price of the Underlying Security may become less volatile over time, which could have an adverse impact on the Fund’s performance. The Fund’s synthetic covered put strategy is designed to benefit from significant price fluctuations in the Underlying Security. However, if the Underlying Security experiences reduced volatility, it may lead to a decrease in the Fund’s potential returns. There is a possibility that market conditions, investor sentiment, or other factors may contribute to decreased volatility in the future. Such reduced volatility could limit the opportunities for the Fund to profit from its credit spread positions, as the strategy relies on price differentials between options with varying strike prices.
It’s important to note that the Fund’s performance is closely tied to the dynamics of the Underlying Security’s share price. As such, any significant reduction in the volatility of the Underlying Security’s share price may present challenges for the Fund’s synthetic covered put strategy and may affect its ability to achieve its investment objectives. Investors should consider this potential risk when evaluating their investment in the Fund.
MSTR Good Performance Risk. Several factors could contribute to positive performance in MicroStrategy’s stock, posing a risk to the Fund. MicroStrategy’s substantial Bitcoin holdings could lead to appreciation in its stock price if Bitcoin's value rises, as the company’s performance is often closely correlated with Bitcoin's price movements. MicroStrategy may also experience gains
44
| Notes to the Financial Statements | YieldMax ETFs |
| July 31, 2025 |
from its core analytics and business intelligence services. As demand for data-driven solutions and enterprise analytics grows, MicroStrategy’s offerings may generate strong revenues, potentially leading to increased market confidence and upward price movement in MSTR stock. Additionally, favorable economic conditions, strong execution of strategic objectives, or significant cost reductions could bolster MicroStrategy’s profitability, potentially attracting investors and contributing to share price appreciation. Should any of these factors lead to positive stock performance, the Fund could suffer substantial losses due to its inverse exposure.
Real Estate Sector Risk (RNTY ETF Only). Changes in real estate values can have a significant negative effect on issuers in the real estate sector. The value of securities of issuers in the real estate sector can be affected by changes in real estate values and rental income, property taxes, interest rates, tax and regulatory requirements, and the management skill and creditworthiness of the issuer. The real estate sector is particularly sensitive to economic downturns. Real estate values rise and fall in response to a variety of factors, including local, regional and national economic conditions, interest rates and tax considerations. When economic growth is slow, demand for property decreases and prices tend to decline. Property values tend to decrease because of overbuilding, increases in property taxes and operating expenses, changes in zoning laws, environmental regulations or hazards, uninsured casualty or condemnation losses, or a general decline in neighborhood values.
• REIT Risk. REITs are subject to additional risks, including those related to adverse governmental actions; declines in property value and the real estate market; the potential failure to qualify for tax-free pass through of income; and exemption from registration as an investment company. REITs are dependent upon specialized management skills and may invest in relatively few properties, a small geographic area, or a small number of property types. As a result, investments in REITs may be volatile. To the extent the Fund invests in REITs concentrated in specific geographic areas or property types, the Fund may be subject to a greater loss as a result of adverse developments affecting such area or property types. REITs are pooled investment vehicles with their own fees and expenses and the Fund will indirectly bear a proportionate share of those fees and expenses.
Referenced Index Risk (QDTY ETF, RDTY ETF, & SDTY ETF Only). The Funds invest in options contracts that are based on the value of the Indexes (or in ETFs that track the Index’s performance). This subjects the Funds to certain of the same risks as if it owned shares of companies that comprised the Indexes or an ETF that tracks the Indexes, even though it does not. By virtue of the Funds’ investments in options contracts that are based on the value of the Indexes, the Funds may also be subject to the following risks:
| • Indirect Investment Risk. The Indexes are not affiliated with the Trust, the Funds, the Adviser, or their respective affiliates and are not involved with this offering in any way. Investors in the Funds will not have the right to receive dividends or other distributions or any other rights with respect to the companies that comprise the Indexes but will be subject to declines in the performance of the Indexes. However, the effect of dividends is indirectly reflected in each Fund’s strategy, as dividends paid by the Indexes’ component securities are incorporated into the pricing of the options used for synthetic tracking. |
| • Index Trading Risk. The trading price of the Indexes may be highly volatile and could continue to be subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors. The stock market in general has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies. |
| • The Nasdaq 100 Index Risks (QDTY ETF Only). The Index’s major risks stem from its high concentration in the technology sector and significant exposure to high-growth, high-valuation companies. A downturn in the tech industry, whether from regulatory changes, shifts in technology, or competitive pressures, can greatly impact the Index. It’s also vulnerable to geopolitical risks due to many constituent companies having substantial international operations. Since many of these tech companies often trade at high valuations, a shift in investor sentiment could lead to significant price declines. |
| • Russell 2000 Index Risks (RDTY ETF Only). The Index, which consists of small-cap U.S. companies, is particularly susceptible to economic changes, as these firms often have less financial resilience than larger companies. Market volatility can disproportionately affect these smaller businesses, leading to significant price swings. Additionally, these companies are often more exposed to specific industry risks and have less diverse revenue streams. They can also be more vulnerable to changes in domestic regulatory or policy environments. |
| • S&P 500 Index Risks (SDTY ETF Only). The Index, which includes a broad swath of large U.S. companies, is primarily exposed to overall economic and market conditions. Recession, inflation, and changes in interest rates can significantly impact the Index’s performance. Furthermore, despite its diverse representation, a downturn in a major sector such as technology or financials could notably affect the Index. Geopolitical risks and unexpected global events, like pandemics, can introduce volatility and uncertainty. |
Semiconductor Industry Risk (CHPY ETF & SOXY ETF Only). Semiconductor companies may face intense competition, both domestically and internationally, and such competition may have an adverse effect on their profit margins. Semiconductor companies
45
| Notes to the Financial Statements | YieldMax ETFs |
| July 31, 2025 |
may have limited product lines, markets, financial resources or personnel. Semiconductor companies’ supply chain and operations are dependent on the availability of materials that meet exacting standards and the use of third parties to provide components and services. Semiconductor companies may rely on a limited number of suppliers, or upon suppliers in a single location, for certain materials, equipment or tools. Finding and qualifying alternate or additional suppliers can be a lengthy process that can cause production delays or impose unforeseen costs, and such alternatives may not be available at all. Production can be disrupted by the unavailability of resources, such as water, silicon, electricity, gases and other materials. Suppliers may also increase prices or encounter cybersecurity or other issues that can disrupt production or increase production costs.
The products of semiconductor companies may face obsolescence due to rapid technological developments and frequent new product introduction, unpredictable changes in growth rates and competition for the services of qualified personnel. Capital equipment expenditures could be substantial, and equipment generally suffers from rapid obsolescence. Companies in the semiconductor industry are heavily dependent on patent and intellectual property rights. The loss or impairment of these rights would adversely affect the profitability of these companies.
Technology Sector Risk (GPTY ETF & LFGY ETF Only). The Funds will invest substantially in companies in the information technology sector, and therefore the performance of the Funds could be negatively impacted by events affecting this sector. Market or economic factors impacting technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technological advances could have a significant effect on the value of the Funds’ investments. The value of stocks of information technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology is particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technology product cycles, rapid product obsolescence, government regulation and competition, both domestically and internationally, including competition from foreign competitors with lower production costs. Stocks of information technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology, especially those of smaller, less-seasoned companies, tend to be more volatile than the overall market. Information technology companies are heavily dependent on patent and intellectual property rights, the loss or impairment of which may adversely affect profitability.
YieldMax™ ETF Risks (FEAT ETF & FIVY ETF Only). In addition to equity securities, the Funds will invest their assets in selected eligible YieldMax™ ETFs, so each Fund’s investment performance is likely to be substantially related to the performance of the YieldMax™ ETFs. Each Fund’s NAV will change with changes in the value of the YieldMax™ ETFs in which they invest. An investment in the Funds entails more costs and expenses than the combined costs and expenses of direct investments in the YieldMax™ ETFs. Each YieldMax™ ETF is subject to the principal risks outlined for the Funds (including ETF Risks), along with the following additional risks:
| • Underlying Security Risks. Each YieldMax™ ETF invests in options contracts that are based on the value of one or more underlying securities (each, an “Underlying Security”). This subjects each YieldMax™ ETF to certain of the same risks as if it owned shares of its Underlying Security, even though it does not. As a result, each YieldMax™ ETF is subject to the risks associated with the industry of the corresponding Underlying Issuer. |
○ BITO Risks. From time to time, the Funds may invest in BITO (the designated Evaluated Security for the YieldMax™ Bitcoin Option Income Strategy ETF). During such times, the Funds will be subject to additional risks. BITO seeks to provide investment results that correspond to the performance of Bitcoin by primarily investing in Bitcoin futures contracts. BITO does not invest directly in or hold Bitcoin. BITO is subject to many of the same risks to which the YieldMax™ ETFs are subject. For example, Counterparty Risks, Derivatives Risks, ETF Risks, Liquidity Risk, Money Market Instrument Risks, Non-Diversification Risks, and Management Risks. BITO is also subject to the additional risks, which are described in more detail in BITO’s prospectus.
| • Derivatives Risk. Derivatives are financial instruments that derive value from the underlying reference asset or assets, such as stocks, bonds, or funds (including ETFs), interest rates or indexes. Each YieldMax™ ETF’s investments in derivatives may pose risks in addition to, and greater than, those associated with directly investing in securities or other ordinary investments, including risk related to the market, imperfect correlation with underlying investments or YieldMax™ ETF’s other portfolio holdings, higher price volatility, lack of availability, counterparty risk, liquidity, valuation and legal restrictions. The YieldMax™ ETFs investment strategies are options-based. The prices of options are volatile and are influenced by, among other things, actual and anticipated changes in the value of the underlying instrument, including the anticipated volatility, which are affected by fiscal and monetary policies and by national or international political and economic events, changes in the actual or implied volatility or the reference asset, and the time remaining until the expiration of the option contract. |
| • Counterparty Risk. Each YieldMax™ ETF faces counterparty risk through its investments in options contracts, held via clearing members due to its non-membership in clearing houses, with the risk exacerbated if a clearing member defaults or if limited |
46
| Notes to the Financial Statements | YieldMax ETFs |
| July 31, 2025 |
clearing members are willing to transact on its behalf. This risk is also magnified as the YieldMax™ ETF primarily focuses on options contracts on a single security, potentially leading to losses or hindrance in implementing its investment strategy if adverse situations with clearing members arise.
| • Price Participation Risk. Each YieldMax™ ETF employs a strategy of selling call option contracts, limiting its participation in the value increase of the Underlying Security during the call period. Should an Underlying Security’s value increase beyond the sold call options’ strike price, the YieldMax™ ETF may not experience the same extent of increase, potentially underperforming the Underlying Security and experiencing a NAV decrease, especially given its full exposure to any value decrease of the Underlying Security over the call period. |
| • Distribution Risk. Each YieldMax™ ETF aims to provide monthly income, although there’s no guarantee of distribution in any given month, and the distribution amounts may vary significantly. Monthly distributions may consist of capital returns, reducing each YieldMax™ ETF’s NAV and trading price over time, thus potentially leading to significant losses for investors (including the Funds), especially as a YieldMax™ ETF’s returns exclude any dividends paid by the Underlying Security, which may result in lesser income compared to a direct investment in the Underlying Security. |
| • NAV Erosion Risk Due to Distributions. When a YieldMax™ ETF makes a distribution, its NAV typically drops by the distribution amount on the related ex-dividend date. The repetitive payment of distributions may significantly erode a YieldMax™ ETF’s NAV and trading price over time, potentially resulting in notable losses for investors (including the Funds). |
| • Call Writing Strategy Risk. The continuous application of each YieldMax™ ETF’s call writing strategy impacts its ability to participate in the positive price returns of its Underlying Security, which in turn affects each YieldMax™ ETF’s returns both during the term of the sold call options and over longer time frames. A YieldMax™ ETF’s participation in its Underlying Security’s positive price returns and its own returns will depend not only on the Underlying Security’s price but also on the path the Underlying Security’s price takes over time, illustrating that certain price trajectories of the Underlying Security could lead to suboptimal outcomes for the YieldMax™ ETF. |
| • Single Issuer Risk. Each YieldMax™ ETF, focusing on an individual security, may experience more volatility compared to traditional pooled investments or the market generally due to issuer-specific attributes. Its performance may deviate from that of diversified investments or the overall market, making it potentially more susceptible to the specific performance and risks associated with the Underlying Security. |
| • High Portfolio Turnover Risk. Each YieldMax™ ETF may actively and frequently trade all or a significant portion of the YieldMax™ ETF’s holdings. A high portfolio turnover rate increases transaction costs, which may increase the YieldMax™ ETF’s expenses. |
| • Liquidity Risk. Some securities held by the YieldMax™ ETFs, including options contracts, may be difficult to sell or be illiquid, particularly during times of market turmoil. This risk is greater for the YieldMax™ ETFs as each will hold options contracts on a single security, and not a broader range of options contracts. Markets for securities or financial instruments could be disrupted by a number of events, including, but not limited to, an economic crisis, natural disasters, epidemics/pandemics, new legislation or regulatory changes inside or outside the United States. Illiquid securities may be difficult to value, especially in changing or volatile markets. If a YieldMax™ ETF is forced to sell an illiquid security at an unfavorable time or price, the YieldMax™ ETF may be adversely impacted. Certain market conditions or restrictions, such as market rules related to short sales, may prevent the YieldMax™ ETF from limiting losses, realizing gains or achieving a high correlation with the Underlying Security. There is no assurance that a security that is deemed liquid when purchased will continue to be liquid. Market illiquidity may cause losses for the YieldMax™ ETFs. |
| • Money Market Instrument Risk. The YieldMax™ ETFs may use a variety of money market instruments for cash management purposes, including money market funds, depositary accounts and repurchase agreements. Repurchase agreements are contracts in which a seller of securities agrees to buy the securities back at a specified time and price. Repurchase agreements may be subject to market and credit risk related to the collateral securing the repurchase agreement. Money market instruments, including money market funds, may lose money through fees or other means. |
| • Tax Risk. Each YieldMax™ ETF aims to qualify as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code to avoid U.S. federal income tax on distributed net investment income and net capital gain, provided certain conditions are met. Failure to meet the RIC criteria, |
47
| Notes to the Financial Statements | YieldMax ETFs |
| July 31, 2025 |
especially if the value of held options exceeds 25% of the total ETF assets at the end of a tax quarter, could subject a YieldMax™ ETF’s income to taxation at both the fund and shareholder levels, though there’s a grace period to rectify such non-compliance; each YieldMax™ ETF employs a synthetic strategy, maintaining a treasury securities portfolio to aid in meeting diversification requirements.
• U.S. Government and U.S. Agency Obligations Risk. Each YieldMax™ ETF may invest in securities issued by the U.S. government or its agencies, where the repayment of principal and interest might be backed by the full faith and credit of the United States or solely by the issuing agency. In cases where the issuing agency or instrumentality is the sole backer, investors are reliant on that entity for repayment, with no assurance that the U.S. government would provide financial support to such agencies or instrumentalities if not obligated, potentially posing a repayment risk.
As with any investment, there is a risk that you could lose all or a portion of your principal investment in the Funds. The Funds are subject to the above principal risks, as well as other principal risks which may adversely affect each Fund’s NAV, trading price, yield, total return and/or ability to meet their objectives. For more information about the risks of investing in the Funds, see the section in each Fund’s Prospectus titled “Additional Information About the Fund — Principal Investment Risks”.
| NOTE 4 – COMMITMENTS AND OTHER RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS |
The Adviser serves as investment adviser to the Funds pursuant to an investment advisory agreement between the Adviser and the Trust, on behalf of the Funds (the “Advisory Agreement”), and, pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, provides investment advice to the Funds and oversees the day-to-day operations of the Funds, subject to the direction and oversight of the Board. The Adviser is also responsible for trading portfolio securities for the Funds, including selecting broker-dealers to execute purchase and sale transactions, subject to the supervision of the Board.
Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, each Fund pays the Adviser a unitary management fee (the “Investment Advisory Fee”) based on the average daily net assets of each Fund as follows:
| Fund | Investment Advisory Fee | |
| GPTY ETF | 0.99% | |
| LFGY ETF | 0.99% | |
| FEAT ETF | 0.29% | |
| FIVY ETF | 0.29% | |
| WNTR ETF | 0.99% | |
| QDTY ETF | 0.99% | |
| RDTY ETF | 0.99% | |
| SDTY ETF | 0.99% | |
| CHPY ETF | 0.99% | |
| BIGY ETF | 0.99% | |
| RNTY ETF | 0.99% | |
| SOXY ETF | 0.99% | |
Out of the Investment Advisory Fees, the Adviser is obligated to pay or arrange for the payment of substantially all expenses of the Funds, including the cost of transfer agency, custody, fund administration, and all other related services necessary for the Funds to operate. Under the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser has agreed to pay all expenses incurred by each Fund except for interest charges on any borrowings, dividends and other expenses on securities sold short, taxes, brokerage commissions and other expenses incurred in placing orders for the purchase and sale of securities and other investment instruments, acquired fund fees and expenses, accrued deferred tax liability, extraordinary expenses, and distribution fees and expenses paid by each Fund under any distribution plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (collectively, “Excluded Expenses”), and the Investment Advisory Fees payable to the Adviser. The Investment Advisory Fees incurred are paid monthly to the Adviser. Investment Advisory Fees for the periods ended July 31, 2025, are disclosed in the Statements of Operations.
As stated above, effective January 1, 2025, the Adviser assumed full management responsibilities for the Funds following the resignation of ZEGA as sub-adviser and its cessation of operations as a registered investment adviser. As a result, there is no sub-advisory agreement currently in effect for the Funds, and the Adviser is directly responsible for all portfolio management functions, including day-to-day trading, security selection, and execution, under the oversight of the Board.
48
| Notes to the Financial Statements | YieldMax ETFs |
| July 31, 2025 |
The Adviser has entered into an agreement with ZEGA, Lucania Investments LLC, and Level ETF Ventures LLC (each a “Supporter” and collectively the “Supporters”), with respect to the Funds, under which each Supporter assumes the obligation of the Adviser to pay all or a portion of expenses of the Funds, except the Excluded Expenses (such expenses of the Funds, except Excluded Expenses, the “Unitary Expenses”). For assuming the payment obligations for the Funds, the Adviser has agreed to pay the Supporters all or a portion of the profits, if any, generated by each Fund’s unitary fee less a contractual fee retained by the Adviser. Expenses incurred by the Funds and paid by the Supporters include fees charged by Tidal (defined below) which is an affiliate of the Adviser. Although the Supporters have agreed to be responsible for all of the Unitary Expenses for the Funds, the Adviser retains the ultimate obligation to the Funds to pay such expenses.
Tidal ETF Services LLC (“Tidal”), a Tidal Financial Group company and an affiliate of the Adviser, serves as the Funds’ administrator and, in that capacity, performs various administrative and management services for the Funds. Tidal coordinates the payment of Fund-related expenses and manages the Trust’s relationships with its various service providers. As compensation for the services it provides, Tidal receives a fee based on each Fund’s average daily net assets, subject to a minimum annual fee. Tidal also is entitled to certain out-of-pocket expenses for the services mentioned above.
U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC, doing business as U.S. Bank Global Fund Services (“Fund Services”), serves as the Funds’ sub - administrator, fund accountant and transfer agent. In those capacities, Fund Services performs various administrative and accounting services for the Funds. Fund Services prepares various federal and state regulatory filings, reports and returns for the Funds, including regulatory compliance monitoring and financial reporting; prepares reports and materials to be supplied to the Board; and monitors the activities of the Funds’ custodian. U.S. Bank N.A. (the “Custodian”), an affiliate of Fund Services, serves as the Funds’ custodian.
Foreside Fund Services, LLC (the “Distributor”) acts as the Funds’ principal underwriter in a continuous public offering of each Fund’s shares.
Certain officers and a trustee of the Trust are affiliated with the Adviser. Neither the affiliated trustee nor the Trust’s officers receive compensation from the Funds.
The Board has adopted a Distribution (Rule 12b-1) Plan (the “Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. In accordance with the Plan, the Funds are authorized to pay an amount up to 0.25% of their average daily net assets each year to pay distribution fees for the sale and distribution of its Shares. 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, because the fees are paid out of each Fund’s assets on an ongoing basis, over time these fees will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than certain other types of sales charges.
| NOTE 5 – SEGMENT REPORTING |
In accordance with the FASB Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, the Funds have evaluated their business activities and determined that they each operate as a single reportable segment.
Each Fund's investment activities are managed by the Adviser, which serves as the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"). The Adviser is responsible for assessing each Fund’s financial performance and allocating resources. In making these assessments, the Adviser evaluates each Fund’s financial results on an aggregated basis, rather than by separate segments. As such, the Funds do not allocate operating expenses or assets to multiple segments, and accordingly, no additional segment disclosures are required. There were no intra-entity sales or transfers during the reporting period.
The Funds primarily generate income through dividends, interest, and realized/unrealized gains on their investment portfolios. Expenses incurred, including management fees, Fund operating expenses, and transaction costs, are considered general Fund-level expenses and are not allocated to specific segments or business lines.
Management has determined that the Funds do not meet the criteria for disaggregated segment reporting under ASU 2023 -07 and will continue to evaluate its reporting requirements in accordance with applicable accounting standards.

2025, the QDTY ETF, RDTY ETF, and SDTY ETF have elected to defer late-year losses in the amount of $31,687, $18,910, and $27,457, respectively. As of the fiscal periods ended July 31, 2025, the FEAT ETF, FIVY ETF, and WNTR ETF had short-term capital loss carryovers, which do not expire, in the amount of $4,310,831, $2,358,394, and $1,373,055, respectively.
| NOTE 9 – SHARES TRANSACTIONS |
Shares of the Funds are listed and traded on NYSE, except for the FEAT ETF, FIVY ETF, QDTY ETF, RDTY ETF, and SDTY ETF, which are listed and traded on the NASDAQ. Market prices for the Shares may be different from their NAV. The Funds issue and redeem Shares on a continuous basis at NAV generally in large blocks of Shares, called Creation Units. Creation Units are issued and redeemed principally in-kind for securities included in a specified universe. Once created, Shares generally trade in the secondary market at market prices that change throughout the day. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, Shares are not redeemable securities of the Funds. Creation Units may only be purchased or redeemed by 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 Depository Trust Company participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with 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 the Funds. Rather, most retail investors may purchase Shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker and are subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees.
The Funds currently offer one class of Shares, which has no front-end sales load, no deferred sales charge, and no redemption fee. A fixed transaction fee is imposed for the transfer and other transaction costs associated with the purchase or sale of Creation Units. The standard fixed transaction fees for the Funds is $300, payable to the Custodian. The fixed transaction fee may be waived on certain orders if the Funds’ Custodian has determined to waive some or all of the costs associated with the order or another party, such as the Adviser, has agreed to pay such fee. In addition, a variable fee may be charged on all cash transactions or substitutes for Creation Units and Redemption Units of up to a maximum of 2% of the value of the Creation Units and Redemption Units subject to the transaction. Variable fees are imposed to compensate the Funds for transaction costs associated with the cash transactions. Variable fees received by the Funds, if any, are disclosed in the capital shares transactions section of the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. The Funds may issue an unlimited number of Shares of beneficial interest, with no par value. All Shares of the Funds have equal rights and privileges.
| NOTE 10 – RECENT MARKET EVENTS |
U.S. and international markets have experienced and may continue to experience significant periods of volatility in recent years and months due to a number of economic, political and global macro factors including uncertainty regarding inflation and central banks’ interest rate changes, the possibility of a national or global recession, trade tensions and tariffs, political events, armed conflict, war, and geopolitical conflict. These developments, as well as other events, could result in further market volatility and negatively affect financial asset prices, the liquidity of certain securities and the normal operations of securities exchanges and other markets, despite government efforts to address market disruptions. As a result, the risk environment remains elevated. The Adviser will monitor developments and seek to manage the Funds in a manner consistent with achieving the Funds’ investment objectives, but there can be no assurance that they will be successful in doing so.
| NOTE 11 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS |
In preparing these financial statements, management has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the financial statements were issued. Management has determined that there are no subsequent events that would need to be recognized or disclosed in the Funds’ financial statements.

(the “YieldMaxTM ETFs”, each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”)
Pursuant to Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), at meetings held between November 6- 7, 2024, January 1, 2025, and February 5-6, 2025, the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Tidal Trust II (the “Trust”) considered the approval of:
| ● | the Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) between Tidal Investments LLC (the “Adviser”) and the Trust, on behalf of each Fund. |
| ● | a Sub-Advisory Agreement between the Adviser and ZEGA Financial, LLC (“ZEGA”) with respect to the YieldMaxTM ETFs. |
Pursuant to Section 15 of the 1940 Act, the Agreement must be approved by the vote of a majority of the Trustees who are not parties to the Agreement or “interested persons” of any party thereto, as defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval.
In preparation for such meeting, the Board requested and reviewed a wide variety of information from the Adviser.
In reaching its decision, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, considered all factors it believed relevant, including: (i) the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided to each Fund’s shareholders by the Adviser; (ii) the costs of the services to be provided and the profits to be realized by the Adviser from services to be provided to the Funds, including any fall-out benefits; (iii) comparative fee and expense data for each Fund in relation to other investment companies with similar investment objectives; (iv) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as each Fund grows and whether the advisory fees for each Fund reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of each Fund; and (v) other financial benefits to the Adviser and their affiliates resulting from services rendered to the Funds. The Board’s review included written and oral information furnished to the Board prior to and at the meetings held between November 6-7, 2024, January 1, 2025, and February 5-6, 2025. Among other things, the Adviser provided responses to a detailed series of questions, which included information about the Adviser’s operations, service offerings, personnel, compliance program and financial condition. The Board then discussed the written and oral information that it received before the meeting, and the Adviser’s oral presentations and any other information that the Board received at the meeting and deliberated on the approval of the Agreements in light of this information.
The Independent Trustees were assisted throughout the contract review process by independent legal counsel. The Independent Trustees relied upon the advice of such counsel and their own business judgment in determining the material factors to be considered in evaluating the approval of the Agreement, and the weight to be given to each such factor. The conclusions reached with respect to the Agreement were based on a comprehensive evaluation of all the information provided and not any single factor. Moreover, each Trustee may have placed varying emphasis on particular factors in reaching conclusions with respect to each Fund. The Independent Trustees conferred amongst themselves and independent legal counsel in executive sessions both with and without representatives of management.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services to be Provided. The Trustees considered the scope of services to be provided under the Advisory Agreement. In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser; the Board reviewed the Adviser’s compliance infrastructure and its financial strength and resources. The Board also considered the experience of the personnel of the Adviser working with ETFs. The Board also considered other services to be provided to the Funds by the Adviser, such as selecting broker-dealers for executing portfolio transactions, monitoring adherence to each 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 that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided to each Fund by the Adviser based on their experience, personnel, operations and resources.
Historical Performance. The Board noted that the Funds had not yet commenced operations and that therefore there was no prior performance to review.
Cost of Services Provided, Profitability and Economies of Scale. The Board reviewed the proposed advisory fees for each Fund and compared them to the management fees and total operating expenses of its Peer Group. The Board noted that the comparisons to the total expense ratios were the most relevant comparisons, given the fact that the advisory fee for each Fund is a “unified fee.”
The Board noted the importance of the fact that the proposed advisory fee for each Fund is a “unified fee,” meaning that the shareholders of each Fund pay no expenses except for interest charges on any borrowings, dividends and other expenses on securities sold short, taxes, brokerage commissions and other expenses incurred in placing orders for the purchase and sale of securities and other investment instruments, acquired fund fees and expenses, accrued deferred tax liability, distribution fees and expenses paid by each Fund under any distribution plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, litigation expenses, non-routine or extraordinary expenses, and the unitary management fee payable to the Adviser. The Board also noted that the Adviser was responsible for compensating the Trust’s other service providers and paying the Fund’s other expenses (except as noted above) out of its own fees and resources. The Board further noted that because the Funds are new, it was difficult to estimate the profitability of each Fund to the Adviser. The Board, however, considered collateral or “fall out” benefits that the Adviser and its affiliates may derive as a result of their relationship with the Funds.
The Board noted that because the Funds are new, it also was difficult to estimate whether each Fund would experience economies of scale. The Board noted that the Adviser will review expenses as each Fund’s assets grow. The Board determined to evaluate economies of scale on an ongoing basis if the Funds achieved asset growth.
The Board also reviewed the proposed advisory fee paid to the Adviser, where applicable, for their services. The Board considered each of these fees in light of the services being provided. The Board determined that the proposed fees reflected an appropriate allocation of the advisory fee paid to the Adviser given the work performed by the Adviser. The Board also considered that ZEGA was acting as sponsor to the Funds and had agreed to assume the payment of any fund expenses above the level of the unitary fee. The Board considered that pursuant to these arrangements, if fund expenses, including a payment to the Adviser of a certain amount, fall below the level of the unitary fee, the Adviser would pay any remaining portion of the unitary fee to ZEGA out of its profits. The Board concluded that the proposed fees for each Fund were reasonable in light of the services rendered.
The Board also considered that the sub-advisory fees paid to the Sub-Adviser is paid out of the Adviser’s unified fee and represents an arm’s-length negotiation between the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser. For these reasons, the Trustees determined that the profitability to the Sub-Adviser from respective relationships with the respective Funds was not a material factor in their deliberations with respect to consideration of approval of the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Board considered that, because these fees are paid by the Adviser out of its unified fee, any economies of scale would not benefit shareholders and, thus, were not relevant for the consideration of the approval of the sub-advisory fee.
Conclusion. No single factor was determinative to the decision of the Board. Based on the Board’s deliberations and its evaluation of the information described above and such other matters as were deemed relevant, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously: (a) concluded that the terms of each Advisory Agreement are fair and reasonable; (b) concluded that each of the Adviser’s fees are reasonable in light of the services that the Adviser will provide to each Fund; and (c) agreed to approve the Agreement for an initial term of two years.

Exhibit 99.CODE ETH
FINANCIAL OFFICER CODE OF ETHICS
Purposes of the Code
The reputation and integrity of Tidal Trust II (the “Trust”) are valuable assets that are vital to the Trust’s success. Each officer and employee of the Trust, including each of the Trust’s senior financial officers (“SFOs”), is responsible for conducting the Trust’s business in a manner that demonstrates a commitment to the highest standards of integrity. SFOs include the principal executive officer, the principal financial officer, comptroller (or principal accounting officer), and any person who performs a similar function.
The Trust has adopted a code of ethics pursuant Rule 17j-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“Code of Ethics”). The Trust’s Rule 17j-1 Code of Ethics is designed to prevent certain conflicts of interest that may arise when officers, employees, or trustees know about present or future Trust transactions, have the power to influence those transactions; and engage in securities transactions in their personal account(s).
The Trust has chosen to adopt a senior financial officer code of ethics (“SFO Code”) for the purpose of promoting:
| ● | Honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships; | |
| ● | Full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Trust files with, or submits to, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and in other public communications made by the Trust; | |
| ● | Compliance with applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations; | |
| ● | The prompt internal reporting of violations of the SFO Code to an appropriate person or persons identified in the SFO Code; and | |
| ● | Accountability for adherence to the SFO Code. |
This SFO Code should be read in conjunction with the Trust’s other policy statements, including its Code of Ethics and its Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
Principles for the Handling of Financial Information
The Trust has adopted the following principles to govern the manner in which SFOs perform their duties. Persons subject to these guidelines include the principal executive officer, the principal financial officer, comptroller (or principal accounting officer), and any Trust officer or employee who performs a similar function or who participates in the preparation of any part of the Trust’s financial statements. Specifically, persons subject to this SFO Code shall:
| ● | Act with honesty and integrity |
| ● | Avoid actual or apparent conflicts of interest with the Trust in personal and professional relationships |
● Provide information to the Trust’s employees and service providers (adviser, sub, administrator, administrator, outside auditor, outside counsel, custodian, etc..) that is accurate, complete, objective, relevant, timely, and understandable
● Endeavor to ensure full, fair, timely, accurate, and understandable disclosure in the Trust’s periodic reports
● Comply with the federal securities laws and other applicable laws and rules, such as the Internal Revenue Code
● Act in good faith, responsibly, and with due care, competence and diligence, without misrepresenting material facts or subordinating independent judgment to another end
● Respect the confidentiality of information acquired in the course of their work, except where disclosure is expressly permitted or is otherwise legally mandated
● Record (or participate in the recording of) entries in the Trust’s books and records that are accurate
● Refrain from using confidential information for personal advantage
Violations of the SFO Code
Any action that directly or indirectly contravenes one or more of the Principles outlined above shall be treated as a violation of this SFO Code unless good cause for such apparent contravention is found to exist.
Dishonest or unethical conduct or conduct that is illegal will constitute a per se violation of this SFO Code, regardless of whether this Code refers to that particular conduct.
A violation of this SFO Code may result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment. The Trust must and will report all suspected criminal violations to the appropriate authorities for possible prosecution, and will investigate, address and report as appropriate, non-criminal violations.
Enforcement of the SFO Code
Violations
All persons subject to this SFO Code who observe, learn of, or, in good faith, suspect a current or threatened violation of the SFO Code must immediately report the violation in writing to the Compliance Officer, another member of the Trust’s senior management, or to the Audit Committee of the Board. An example of a possible SFO Code violation is the preparation and filing of financial disclosure that omits material facts, or that is accurate but is written in a way that obscures its meaning.
Disclosures
All persons subject to this SFO Code shall file a letter (a “Disclosure Letter”) regarding any transaction or relationship that reasonably appears to involve an actual or apparent conflict of interest with the Trust within ten days of becoming aware of such transaction or relationship. A Disclosure Letter should be prepared regarding these transactions or relationships whether you are involved or have only observed the transaction or relationship. All Disclosure Letters shall be submitted to the compliance officer, or if it is not possible to disclose the matter to the compliance officer, then the Disclosure Letter shall be submitted to another member of the Trust’s senior management or to the Audit Committee of the Board of Trustees.
An executive officer of the Trust or the Audit Committee will review all Disclosure Letters and determine whether further action is warranted. All determinations will be documented in writing and will be maintained by the compliance officer or other appropriate officers of the Trust.
Outside Service Providers
Because service providers to the Trust, such as the sub-administrator, administrator, outside accounting firm, and custodian, provide much of the work relating to the Trust’s financial statements, you should be alert for actions by service providers that may be illegal, or that could be viewed as dishonest or unethical conduct. You should report these actions to the compliance officer even if you know, or think, that the service provider has its own code of ethics covering persons who are Trust SFOs or employees.
Non-Retaliation Policy
SFOs who report violations or suspected violations in good faith will not be subject to retaliation of any kind. Reported violations will be investigated and addressed promptly and will be treated confidentially to the extent possible.
Annual Certification
SFOs will receive training on the contents and importance of this SFO Code and related policies and the manner in which violations must be reported and how Disclosure Letters must be submitted. Each SFO will be asked to certify on an annual basis that he/she is in full compliance with the SFO Code and any related policy statements.
Questions about the Code
The Trust’s Board of Trustees has designated the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer to be the compliance officer for purposes of implementing and administering this SFO Code. Any questions about this SFO Code should be directed to the compliance officer.
