Investment Case Why FLWR?

Medical cannabis has the potential to help millions of people globally. The stigma is coming down, and the cannabis plant is metamorphosing from a vice steeped in political, legal and cultural controversy to a medicine hailed for its remarkable therapeutic applications. Today, the movement is backed by the tailwinds of favourable legislation, social acceptance, medical recognition and pharmaceutical applications. Cannabis-derived pharmaceutical drugs are now available to treat symptoms associated with multiple sclerosis, certain types of cancer and rare forms of childhood epilepsy, including Lennox- Gastaut syndrome and Dravet syndrome. Our purpose-built investment strategy and ETF – the first truly global Medical Cannabis ETF in Europe – provides investors with access to those companies that are positively exposed to this revolution in cannabis-derived medicine.

As the medical cannabis movement gathers steam, catalysed by breakthroughs in our understanding of cannabinoids and the corresponding trend towards liberalisation and legalisation, getting on the front foot of this megatrend has its perks for those who can spot the investment opportunity today.

• Favourable Growth Prospects FLWR is Europe’s first global medical cannabis ETF, and provides investors with exposure to the global revolution in cannabis-derived medication and wellness products.

• Powered by New Frontier Data® FLWR is purpose-built in collaboration with New Frontier Data, an independent cannabis research and tech-driven analytics firm based in Washington, D.C., and leverages their unique insights and proprietary classification system of companies that have demonstrable exposure to the medical cannabis and life sciences sector.

• Unconstrained Approach FLWR’s composition transcends classic sector, size and geographic classifications by tracking an emerging theme.

• �ETF�Efficiency In a single trade, FLWR delivers access to dozens of companies that are favourably positioned to ride the tailwinds of the medical cannabis and life sciences theme.

The Foxberry Medical Cannabis & Life Sciences Index provides exposure to companies in the global medical cannabis and cannabis-related life sciences sectors, with a focus on companies in the biotechnology/pharma and hemp and cannabidiol sectors. The index excludes companies that are considered to be either non-compliant with state and federal laws in the countries in which they operate and/or directly involved in the production and/or distribution of cannabis and/or cannabis-derived products containing more than hemp-defined levels of tetrahydrocannabinol for the recreational consumer market. The index follows a liquidity-based weighting scheme where companies with higher liquidity achieve a bigger weight in the index.
