SS&C ALPS Advisors Announces Share Split of the Barron's 400℠ ETF (BFOR)

SS&C ALPS Advisors announced today that the Board of Trustees of ALPS ETF Trust has approved a 4-for-1 split of the shares of Barron's 400℠ ETF (NYSE:BFOR).

The split of BFOR shares will be effective at the market open on July 1, 2026. BFOR will continue to trade on the NYSE Arca under the same ticker symbol.

The split will increase the number of BFOR's shares outstanding and will proportionately lower the price of the shares for BFOR, without affecting the total value of the shares outstanding, except with respect to the redemption of fractional shares, as discussed below.

As a result of the share split, a shareholder of BFOR could potentially hold fractional shares. However, fractional shares cannot trade on NYSE Arca, BFOR's primary listing exchange. Post-split fractional shares will be redeemed for cash and sent to the broker of record. This redemption may cause some shareholders to realize a gain or loss, which could be a taxable event for those shareholders. Otherwise, the split will not result in a taxable transaction for shareholders of BFOR. Some brokerage charges may apply as a result of the split and are not charges imposed by ALPS Advisors, Inc, the Fund's investment adviser.

Important Disclosures

An investor should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing. To obtain a prospectus containing this and other information, call 1-866-759-5679 or visit www.alpsfunds.com. Read the prospectus carefully before investing.

Shares of ETFs are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemable.

All investments are subject to risks, including the loss of money and the possible loss of the entire principal amount invested. Additional information regarding the risks of this investment is available in the prospectus.

Diversification does not eliminate the risk of experiencing investment losses.

Smaller and mid-size companies often have a more limited track record, narrower markets, less liquidity, more limited managerial and financial resources and a less diversified product offering than larger, more established companies. As a result, their performance can be more volatile, which may increase the volatility of the Fund's portfolio.

The Fund employs a "passive management" - or indexing - investment approach and seeks investment results that correspond (before fees and expenses) generally to the performance of its underlying index. Unlike many investment companies, the Fund is not "actively" managed. Therefore, it would not necessarily sell or buy a security unless that security is removed from or added to the underlying index, respectively.

ALPS Advisors, Inc., registered investment adviser with the SEC, is the investment adviser to the Fund. ALPS Advisors, Inc., ALPS Distributors, Inc. and ALPS Portfolio Solutions Distributor, Inc. are affiliated.

ALPS Portfolio Solutions Distributor, Inc. is the distributor for the Fund.
