Fund profile

As filed in the prospectus · 2026 Q1

The First Trust Rising Dividend Achievers ETF (the Fund ) seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield (before the Funds fees and expenses) of an index called the Nasdaq US Rising Dividend Achievers TM Index (the Index ).

Strategy · summarised

The fund tracks the Nasdaq US Rising Dividend Achievers Index using an indexing approach, holding securities of companies that have increased dividends over the prior three and five year periods, meet positive earnings growth and cash-to-debt thresholds, and maintain payout ratios below 65%. The Index is reconstituted quarterly across four equally weighted sub-portfolios, with each sub-portfolio rebalanced annually, which may result in higher portfolio turnover. Because the Index reconstitution ranks securities by dividend growth, earnings, and payout metrics and selects up to 50 per sub-portfolio with industry caps, the fund's composition and sector exposure will shift as these criteria change.
