$10k income snapshot

What could $10,000 in PFFD do?

Using the current trailing 12-month yield, this is the simple cashflow picture: one position, one estimated average income stream, and one more step toward your freedom number.

Estimated annual income

$635

Monthly average

$53

About per month

$53

DRIP framing

At today's price, $10,000 buys about 529.4 shares. If the estimated distributions were reinvested for a year at the same price, DRIP could add roughly 33.6 shares before any market movement.

Think of each $10k as a cashflow block. Stack enough blocks, diversify the roles, and the portfolio starts taking over small monthly bills before it ever replaces a full paycheck.

Educational estimate only - not financial advice or a recommendation. Figures use this ETF's trailing 12-month distributions, latest synced price, and inferred payout cadence from recent data. Actual payments, taxes, prices, distribution timing, and future yields can change.

About PFFD

The Fund invests at least 80% of its total assets in the securities of the ICE BofA Diversified Core U.S. Preferred Securities Index ("Underlying Index"). The Fund also invests at least 80% of its total assets in preferred securities that are domiciled in, principally traded in or whose revenues are primarily from the U.S. The Fund's 80% investment policies are non-fundamental and require 60 days prior written notice to shareholders before they can be changed. The Fund may lend securities representing up to one-third of the value of the Fund’s total assets (including the value of the collateral received).

The Underlying Index is designed to track the broad-based performance of the U.S. preferred securities market. The Underlying Index includes different categories of preferred stock, such as floating, variable and fixed-rate prefer reds, cumulative and non-cumulative prefer reds, and trust prefer reds. Qualifying preferred securities must be listed on a U.S. exchange, denominated in U.S. dollars, and have a minimum amount outstanding of $50 million. Qualifying securities must meet minimum price, liquidity, maturity and other requirements as determined by ICE Data Indices, LLC (the "Index Provider").

Constituents in the Underlying Index are capitalization-weighted based on their current amount outstanding times the market price plus accrued interest. The total allocation to an individual issuer across the Underlying Index is capped at 4.75%, and the aggregate weight of all issuers with a weight greater than 4.5% is capped at 23% each month. The Underlying Index may include large-, mid- or small-capitalization companies. Components of the Underlying Index primarily include financials, real estate, telecommunications and utility companies. The Underlying Index is rebalanced quarterly and reweighted monthly.

The Fund's investment objective and Underlying Index may be changed without shareholder approval.The Underlying Index is sponsored by the Index Provider, which is an organization that is independent of, and unaffiliated with, the Fund and Global X Management Company LLC, the investment adviser for the Fund ("Adviser"). The Index Provider determines the relative weigh tings of the securities in the Underlying Index and publishes information regarding the market value of the Underlying Index.The Adviser uses an indexing approach to try to achieve the Fund's investment objective.

Unlike many investment companies, the Fund does not try to outperform the Underlying Index and does not seek temporary defensive positions when markets decline or appear over valued.The Fund generally uses a representative sampling strategy with respect to the Underlying Index. "Representative sampling" is an indexing strategy that involves investing in a representative sample of securities that collectively has an investment profile similar to the Underlying Index in terms of key risk factors, performance attributes and other characteristics.

These include country weigh tings, market capitalization and other financial characteristics of securities. The Fund may or may not hold all of the securities in the Underlying Index.The Adviser expects that, over time, the correlation between the Fund's performance and that of the Underlying Index, before fees and expenses, will exceed 95%. A correlation percentage of 100% would indicate perfect correlation. The Fund concentrates its investments (i.e., holds 25% or more of its total assets) in a particular industry or group of industries to approximately the same extent that the Underlying Index is concentrated.

As of January 31, 2026, the Underlying Index was concentrated in the banking industry and had significant exposure to the financials sector.
