Confirmed 2017 Annual Special Distributions For First Asset ETFs

/NOT FOR DISSEMINATION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION TO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA./

TORONTO, Dec. 29, 2017 /CNW/ - First Asset Investment Management Inc. ("First Asset") announces the confirmed amounts of the annual, special, year-end distributions (the "Special Distributions") for the 2017 tax year for its First Asset exchange traded funds ("First Asset ETFs"), as set out in the table below.

Each of the First Asset ETFs is required to distribute any net income and capital gains that it has earned in the year.  The Special Distributions will generally consist of capital gains and/or any excess net income at year end.  The Special Distributions will not be paid in cash, but will be reinvested and the resulting units immediately consolidated so that the number of units held by each investor will not change.  Investors holding their units outside registered plans will have taxable amounts to report and an increase in the adjusted cost base of their investment. In all cases, the Special Distributions will be paid on or about December 29, 2017, to unitholders of record on December 28, 2017.  The ex-dividend date in each case is December 27, 2017.

These confirmed amounts are for the Special Distributions only and do not include the ongoing regular monthly or quarterly cash distribution amounts which were announced on December 15, 2017, in a separate press release.  These confirmed Special Distribution amounts replace the previous estimates announced on December 8, 2017. 

The actual taxable amounts of all distributions for the First Asset ETFs for 2017, including the tax characteristics of the distributions, will be reported to brokers (through CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. or "CDS") in early 2018.
