As filed in the prospectus · 2026 Q1

The First Trust NASDAQ Clean Edge Smart Grid Infrastructure Index Fund (the Fund ) seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield (before the Funds fees and expenses) of an equity index called the Nasdaq Clean Edge Smart Grid Infrastructure TM Index (the Index ).

Strategy · summarised

The fund tracks the Nasdaq Clean Edge Smart Grid Infrastructure Index using an indexing approach, holding securities of companies engaged in electric grid infrastructure, energy storage, connected mobility, and related software. The index classifies holdings as "Pure Play" (80% weight) or "Diversified" (20% weight) based on revenue contribution to smart grid activities, with Pure Play companies capped at 8% each and Diversified companies at 2% each. Quarterly rebalancing may produce higher portfolio turnover than typical index funds.
