Letter from the President (unaudited)

 

Dear Shareholders,

 

Thank you for being an investor in AllianzIM Exchange-Traded Funds (“ETFs”). As part of one of the largest asset management and diversified insurance companies in the world, Allianz Investment Management LLC (“AllianzIM”) specializes in the development and execution of innovative risk management strategies. The AllianzIM Buffered ETFs (the “Funds”) are risk mitigation solutions which seek to provide downside risk mitigation through a buffer against the first 10% and 20% of market losses and to offer upside potential by tracking market returns up to a stated cap. The AllianzIM ETF platform offers 26 Buffered ETFs.

 

For the twelve month period that ended October 31, 2023, equities, as measured by the S&P 500 Price Return IndexSM 1, gained 8.31%, while fixed income, as measured by the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index2, edged out a small gain of 0.36%. Monetary policy headwinds were overshadowed by fiscal policy tailwinds this year as what was expected to be a gloomy backdrop for equity investors turned into an extended run of economic prosperity. Going into 2023, many economists had penciled in an economic correction as Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) policy took a bite into the American consumer. However, those views were decidedly pushed out further on the calendar as consumer spending proved to withstand a higher rate regime from the Fed. In turn, equity investors enjoyed a nice ride throughout most of 2023 as strong fundamentals, including three quarters of sequential earnings growth, lifted the S&P 500 Index to nearly 4,600.

 

Notwithstanding, many investors are beginning to ask, “is this as good as it gets?” There is no doubt consumers were on a spending frenzy over the summer months given the culmination of a 4.9% Gross Domestic Product (GDP) print for the third quarter 2023. This was likely the point when many market participants realized the Taylor Rule was not just referring to an economic model for monetary policy, but rather a boost to GDP from Taylor Swift’s concert tour. All jokes aside, the fundamentals were strong for equity investors and the performance of the S&P 500 Index reflected that. Lastly, the lower trajectory monthly inflation data over the summer helped the Fed refrain from being as aggressive on policy tightening and acted as an additional tailwind for investors.

 

It has been difficult to gauge what stage of the economic cycle we are in as recession projections continue to be pushed out for the time being, but it is becoming harder to argue the path forward is becoming more clear as indicated by sluggish equity returns in recent months. Geopolitical tensions have ratcheted up again, the U.S. is trying to avert a government shutdown, the Fed has not yet declared victory on inflation, and on top of all of that we are heading into an election year. As a result, buckle-up, as 2024 could prove to be a wild ride.

 

Despite positive equity returns over the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023, lingering concerns on market prospects remain from investors. The Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America (“Allianz Life”) Q3 2023 Quarterly Market Perceptions Study3 indicated that a majority of Americans (53%) fear another big market crash. A similar number have concerns that another recession is right around the corner. Given the economic backdrop and investor sentiment, we believe investment solutions that offer built-in risk mitigation with upside potential can be an important component of a diversified portfolio by seeking to keep investors in the market and to attempt to eliminate challenges in trying to time the market.

Sincerely,

 

 

Brian J. Muench, CFA®

ALLIANZIM U.S. LARGE CAP BUFFER10 JAN ETF

ALLIANZIM U.S. LARGE CAP BUFFER20 JAN ETF

 

Fund Performance Overview (unaudited)

 

As of January 1, 2023, the Funds seek to match the share price returns of the SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust (the “Underlying ETF”) up to a stated upside Cap, while limiting downside losses of the Fund by the amount of the stated Buffer over a twelve-month Outcome Period. The Funds’ most recent Outcome Period initiated on January 1, 2023. Prior to January 1, 2023, the Funds sought to match the returns of the S&P 500 Price Return IndexSM, up to a specified upside cap, while limiting downside losses of the Fund by the amount of the stated buffer over a twelve-month outcome period. AllianzIM’s Buffered ETF solutions seek to provide downside risk mitigation through a Buffer against the first 10% and 20% of market losses. The buffer for the AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer10 Jan ETF is 10% and the AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer20 Jan ETF is 20%. This market commentary will primarily focus on factors influencing the S&P 500 Price Return IndexSM for the period covered by this report. Because this period does not align with the Outcome Period of the Funds, the Fund performance stated over the last year does not align with the investment objective of the Funds.

 

For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023, the S&P 500 Price Return IndexSM returned 8.31%. While volatility and inflation have subdued over the past calendar year, rising interest rates, geopolitical uncertainty, and macro risks influenced the market. Positive returns in the S&P 500 Price Return IndexSM, which is a market capitalization-weighted index, throughout the first half of the calendar year have become more concentrated with a select group of securities driving returns of the index. The Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) continued to raise its key rate in 2023 to a range between 5.25% - 5.50% which left investors wondering if these actions will produce the lower inflation environment they expect without pushing the U.S. economy into a recession, with rising rates putting downward pricing pressure on bonds. Even with the strong equity markets early in the calendar year, investor sentiment was cautious as equity markets began to pull back toward the end of the fiscal year with negative index returns in August, September and October.

 

The risk mitigation attributes of the 10% and 20% Buffer enabled the Funds to soften market fluctuations during the reporting period relative to the S&P 500 Price Return IndexSM. Against a backdrop of rapidly rising rates, the potential of a recession, and continuing geopolitical risks, we believe it makes sense for investors to prepare for the possibility of more volatile market events and look for ways to mitigate risks along the uncertain road ahead.

 

Each AllianzIM Buffered ETF is subject to an upside return Cap that represents the absolute maximum percentage return that the Fund can achieve for its Outcome Period. Therefore, even though the Fund seeks to provide returns based upon the performance of the SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust, if the return of the SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust for the Outcome Period exceeds the Cap, the Fund will not experience those excess gains. The Funds’ website, www.allianzIMetfs.com, provides important information relating to each Fund, including potential outcomes of an investment in the Fund. One cannot invest directly in an index. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Positive returns in the S&P 500 Price Return IndexSM, which is a market capitalization-weighted index, throughout the first half of the calendar year have become more concentrated with a select group of securities driving returns of the index. The Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) continued to raise its key rate in 2023 to a range between 5.25% - 5.50% which left investors wondering if these actions will produce the lower inflation environment they expect without pushing the U.S. economy into a recession, with rising rates putting downward pricing pressure on bonds. Even with the strong equity markets early in the calendar year, investor sentiment was cautious as equity markets began to pull back toward the end of the fiscal year with negative index returns in August, September and October.

 

The risk mitigation attributes of the 10% and 20% Buffer enabled the Funds to soften market fluctuations during the reporting period relative to the S&P 500 Price Return IndexSM. Against a backdrop of rapidly rising rates, the potential of a recession, and continuing geopolitical risks, we believe it makes sense for investors to prepare for the possibility of more volatile market events and look for ways to mitigate risks along the uncertain road ahead.

 

Each AllianzIM Buffered ETF is subject to an upside return Cap that represents the absolute maximum percentage return that the Fund can achieve for its Outcome Period. Therefore, even though the Fund seeks to provide returns based upon the performance of the SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust, if the return of the SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust for the Outcome Period exceeds the Cap, the Fund will not experience those excess gains. The Funds’ website, www.allianzIMetfs.com, provides important information relating to each Fund, including potential outcomes of an investment in the Fund. One cannot invest directly in an index. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

ALLIANZIM U.S. LARGE CAP BUFFER20 APR ETF

 

Fund Performance Overview (unaudited)

 

As of April 1, 2023, the Funds seek to match the share price returns of the SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust (the “Underlying ETF”) up to a stated upside Cap, while limiting downside losses of the Fund by the amount of the stated Buffer over a twelve-month Outcome Period. The Funds’ most recent Outcome Period initiated on April 1, 2023. Prior to April 1, 2023, the Funds sought to match the returns of the S&P 500 Price Return IndexSM, up to a specified upside cap, while limiting downside losses of the Fund by the amount of the stated buffer over a twelve-month outcome period. AllianzIM’s Buffered ETF solutions seek to provide downside risk mitigation through a Buffer against the first 10% and 20% of market losses. The buffer for the AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer10 Apr ETF is 10% and the AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer20 Apr ETF is 20%.

The Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) continued to raise its key rate in 2023 to a range between 5.25% - 5.50% which left investors wondering if these actions will produce the lower inflation environment they expect without pushing the U.S. economy into a recession, with rising rates putting downward pricing pressure on bonds. Even with the strong equity markets early in the calendar year, investor sentiment was cautious as equity markets began to pull back toward the end of the fiscal year with negative index returns in August, September and October.

 

The risk mitigation attributes of the 10% and 20% Buffer enabled the Funds to soften market fluctuations during the reporting period relative to the S&P 500 Price Return IndexSM. Against a backdrop of rapidly rising rates, the potential of a recession, and continuing geopolitical risks, we believe it makes sense for investors to prepare for the possibility of more volatile market events and look for ways to mitigate risks along the uncertain road ahead.

 

Each AllianzIM Buffered ETF is subject to an upside return Cap that represents the absolute maximum percentage return that the Fund can achieve for its Outcome Period. Therefore, even though the Fund seeks to provide returns based upon the performance of the SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust, if the return of the SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust for the Outcome Period exceeds the Cap, the Fund will not experience those excess gains. The Funds’ website, www.allianzIMetfs.com, provides important information relating to each Fund, including potential outcomes of an investment in the Fund. One cannot invest directly in an index. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

ALLIANZIM U.S. LARGE CAP BUFFER10 OCT ETF

ALLIANZIM U.S. LARGE CAP BUFFER20 OCT ETF

 

Fund Performance Overview (unaudited)

 

The Funds seek to match the share price returns of the SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust (the “Underlying ETF”) up to a stated upside Cap, while limiting downside losses of the Fund by the amount of the stated Buffer over a twelve-month Outcome Period. The Funds’ most recent Outcome Period initiated on October 1, 2023. AllianzIM’s Buffered ETF solutions seek to provide downside risk mitigation through a Buffer against the first 10% and 20% of market losses. The buffer for the AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer10 Oct ETF is 10% and the AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer20 Oct ETF is 20%. This market commentary will primarily focus on factors influencing the S&P 500 Price Return IndexSM for the period covered by this report. Because this period does not align with the Outcome Period of the Funds, the Fund performance stated over the last year does not align with the investment objective of the Funds.

 

For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023, the S&P 500 Price Return IndexSM returned 8.31%. While volatility and inflation have subdued over the past calendar year, rising interest rates, geopolitical uncertainty, and macro risks influenced the market. Positive returns in the S&P 500 Price Return IndexSM, which is a market capitalization-weighted index, throughout the first half of the calendar year have become more concentrated with a select group of securities driving returns of the index.

Because this period does not align with the Outcome Period of the Funds, the Fund performance stated over the last year does not align with the investment objective of the Funds.

 

For the fiscal period November 30, 2022 (commencement of Fund operations) through October 31, 2023, the S&P 500 Price Return IndexSM returned 2.79%. While volatility and inflation have subdued over the past calendar year, rising interest rates, geopolitical uncertainty, and macro risks influenced the market. Positive returns in the S&P 500 Price Return IndexSM, which is a market capitalization-weighted index, throughout the first half of the calendar year have become more concentrated with a select group of securities driving returns of the index. The Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) continued to raise its key rate in 2023 to a range between 5.25% - 5.50% which left investors wondering if these actions will produce the lower inflation environment they expect without pushing the U.S. economy into a recession, with rising rates putting downward pricing pressure on bonds. Even with the strong equity markets early in the calendar year, investor sentiment was cautious as equity markets began to pull back toward the end of the fiscal year with negative index returns in August, September and October.

 

The risk mitigation attributes of the 10% and 20% Buffer enabled the Funds to soften market fluctuations during the reporting period relative to the S&P 500 Price Return IndexSM. Against a backdrop of rapidly rising rates, the potential of a recession, and continuing geopolitical risks, we believe it makes sense for investors to prepare for the possibility of more volatile market events and look for ways to mitigate risks along the uncertain road ahead.

 

Each AllianzIM Buffered ETF is subject to an upside return Cap that represents the absolute maximum percentage return that the Fund can achieve for its Outcome Period. Therefore, even though the Fund seeks to provide returns based upon the performance of the SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust, if the return of the SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust for the Outcome Period exceeds the Cap, the Fund will not experience those excess gains. The Funds’ website, www.allianzIMetfs.com, provides important information relating to each Fund, including potential outcomes of an investment in the Fund. One cannot invest directly in an index. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

ALLIANZIM U.S. LARGE CAP 6 MONTH BUFFER10 JAN/JUL ETF

 

Fund Performance Overview (unaudited)

 

As of January 1, 2023, the Fund seeks to match the share price returns of the SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust (the “Underlying ETF”) up to a stated upside Cap, while limiting downside losses to the Fund by the amount of the stated Buffer over a six-month Outcome Period. The Fund’s most recent Outcome Period initiated on July 1, 2023. Prior to January 1, 2023, the Fund sought to match the returns of the S&P 500 Price Return IndexSM up to a specified upside cap, while limiting downside losses of the Fund by the amount of the stated buffer over a six-month outcome period. The Fund’s previous Outcome Period was from January 1, 2023 to June 30, 2023 and the Fund sought to match the returns of the Underlying ETF up to a stated upside Cap, while limiting downside losses to the Underlying ETF by the amount of the stated Buffer. The buffer for the AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap 6 Month Buffer10 Jan/Jul ETF is 10%. This market commentary will primarily focus on factors influencing the S&P 500 Price Return IndexSM for the period covered by this report. Because this period does not align with the Outcome Period of the Fund, the Fund performance stated over the last year does not align with the investment objective of the Fund.

 

For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023, the S&P 500 Price Return IndexSM returned 8.31%. While volatility and inflation have subdued over the past calendar year, rising interest rates, geopolitical uncertainty, and macro risks influenced the market. Positive returns in the S&P 500 Price Return IndexSM, which is a market capitalization-weighted index, throughout the first half of the calendar year have become more concentrated with a select group of securities driving returns of the index. The Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) continued to raise its key rate in 2023 to a range between 5.25% - 5.50% which left investors wondering if these actions will produce the lower inflation environment they expect without pushing the U.S. economy into a recession, with rising rates putting downward pricing pressure on bonds.

Fund’s prospectus), the share price returns of the Underlying ETF, up to a specified upside Cap, while providing a Buffer against the first 20% of Underlying ETF losses. The Cap and the Buffer will be reduced after taking into account management fees and other Fund fees and expenses.

 

The Underlying ETF is an exchange-traded unit investment trust that seeks to provide investment results that, before expenses, correspond generally to the price and yield performance of the S&P 500® Index (the “Underlying Index”). The Underlying Index is a large-cap, market-weighted, U.S. equities index. The Underlying ETF seeks to achieve its investment objective by holding a portfolio of the common stocks that are included in the Underlying Index, with the weight of each stock in the Underlying ETF’s portfolio substantially corresponding to the weight of such stock in the Underlying Index. The Funds that invest in FLEX Options on the Underlying ETF will not receive or benefit from any dividend payments made by the Underlying ETF.

 

Each Fund is a separate series of the Trust, and each share of a Fund represents an equal proportionate interest in the Fund. All consideration received by the Trust for a Fund’s shares and all assets of a Fund belong solely to that Fund and would be subject to liabilities related thereto.

 

The net asset value (“NAV”) is determined as of the close of trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE” or “Exchange”) is open for business. NAV is calculated for each Fund by taking the value of the Fund’s total assets, including interest or dividends accrued but not yet collected, less all liabilities, and dividing such amount by the total number of shares outstanding. The result, rounded to the nearest cent, is the NAV per share.

 

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The accompanying financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), which require the use of estimates and assumptions to be made by management. These may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in preparation of their financial statements.

 

a. Basis of Presentation

 

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP as detailed in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). Each Fund is an investment company and follows the accounting and reporting guidance in FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services – Investment Companies.”

 

b. Investment Valuation

 

The Funds’ investments are valued daily at market or, in the absence of market value with respect to any investments, at fair value. Market value prices generally represent last sale or official closing prices from a national or foreign exchange (i.e., a regulated market) and are primarily obtained from third-party pricing services. Fair value prices represent any prices not considered market value prices and are determined in accordance with valuation procedures approved by the Board and the requirements of the 1940 Act. As a general principle, the current “fair value” of a security would be the amount which the owner might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale. Valuing the Funds’ assets using fair value pricing can result in using prices for those assets that may differ from current market valuations.

 

Options purchased and written by the Funds generally are valued at the last sale price on the principal exchange on which the option is traded, as of the close of the NYSE. The close of trading for some options exchanges may occur later than the closing of the NYSE. If market quotations are not available, the value of an option may be priced at fair value as determined in accordance with valuation procedures approved by the Board and the requirements of the 1940 Act.

 

The Funds place excess cash balances into overnight time deposits with one or more eligible deposit institutions that meet credit and risk standards approved by the Funds. These are classified as short-term investments in the Funds’ Schedule of Investments.

 

Fair value pricing is used by a Fund when reliable market valuations are not readily available or are not deemed to reflect current market values. Securities that may be valued using “fair value” pricing may include, but are not limited to, securities for which there are no current market quotations or whose issuer is in default or bankruptcy, securities subject to corporate actions (such as mergers or reorganizations), securities subject to non-U.S. investment limits or currency controls, and securities affected by

105

Notes to Financial Statements

”significant events.” An example of a significant event is an event occurring after the close of the market in which a security trades but before a Fund’s next net asset value calculation time that may materially affect the value of the Fund’s investment (e.g., government action, natural disaster, or significant market fluctuation). When fair-value pricing is employed, the prices of securities used by a Fund to calculate its net asset value may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities.

 

The Board has designated the Adviser to perform the Fund’s fair value determinations in accordance with valuation procedures approved by the Board. The effect of using fair value pricing is that the Fund’s NAV will be subject to the judgment of the

Adviser. The Adviser’s fair valuation process is subject to the oversight of the Board.

 

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Funds’ investments. The three levels defined by the hierarchy are as follows:

 

Level 1 — unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets

 

Level 2 — other significant inputs (including quoted prices of similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Adviser’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets and liabilities)

 

The inputs or methodology used for valuing assets and liabilities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those assets and liabilities.

 

The following tables summarize the valuation of the Funds’ assets and liabilities under the fair value hierarchy levels as of October 31, 2023:

c. Derivatives

 

FLEX Options - Each Fund intends to invest substantially all of its assets in FLEX Options on the Underlying ETF (as described above). FLEX Options are customizable exchange-traded option contracts guaranteed for settlement by the Options Clearing Corporation (‘‘OCC’’), a market clearinghouse.

 

Options on ETF - The FLEX Options in which each Fund invests are both purchased and written put and call options on the Underlying ETF. The Funds may also invest in other types of options. In general, an options contract is an agreement between a buyer and seller that gives the purchaser of the option the right, but not the obligation, to buy (in the case of a call option) or sell (in the case of a put option) a particular asset at a specified future date at an agreed upon price.

 

The Funds purchase and sell call and put FLEX Options. In general, put options give the holder (i.e., the buyer) the right, but not the obligation, to sell an asset (or, in the case of certain put options, to receive a cash settlement equal to the amount by which the strike price of the option exceeds the value of the asset, times a specified multiple) and the seller (i.e., the writer) of the put has the obligation to buy the asset (or, in the case of an certain put options, to deliver a cash settlement equal to the amount by which the strike price of the option exceeds the value of the asset, times a specified multiple) at a certain defined price.

e.      Securities Transactions and Net Investment Income

 

Securities transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains (losses) from investment and currency transactions are calculated on the specific identification method. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-date, or for certain foreign securities, when a Fund becomes aware of such dividends. Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis, which may require the use of certain estimates by management that may differ from actual expenses.

 

f.       Cash Equivalents and Temporary Investments

 

Each Fund may invest in securities with maturities of less than one year or cash equivalents, including money market funds, or each may hold cash.

 

g.      Dividend Distributions

 

Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid at least annually by the Funds. The Funds distribute net realized capital gains, if any, to shareholders annually.

 

h.      Reclassification

 

GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be adjusted to reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or the NAV per share.

 

i.       Taxes

 

It is the Funds’ policy to continue to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of their taxable net investment income and capital gains, if any, to their shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, interest and capital gains, if any, are recorded, net of reclaimable amounts, at the time the related income is earned. Management has reviewed the tax positions and has determined that no provision for income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements for uncertain tax positions for the tax years ended October 31, 2023, and other open tax years. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the year or period ended October 31, 2023, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.

 

NOTE 3 – INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND OTHER AGREEMENTS

 

Investment Adviser

 

The Adviser, located at 5701 Golden Hills Drive, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55416, furnishes investment advisory services to the Funds pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement with the Trust on behalf of each Fund (the ‘‘Advisory Agreement’’), subject to the supervision and direction of the Board. The Adviser is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (‘‘SEC’’) as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended.

 

Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, each Fund pays the Adviser a unitary management fee for managing the Funds’ assets at the annual rate listed below. This unitary management fee is designed to pay the Funds’ ordinary operating expenses and to compensate the Adviser for the services it provides to the Funds. Under the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser pays all of the ordinary operating expenses of the Funds, excluding (i) the Funds’ investment advisory fees, (ii) acquired fund fees and expenses, (iii) payments under the Funds’ Rule 12b-1 plan (if any), (iv) brokerage expenses (including any costs incidental to transactions in portfolio securities or other instruments), (v) taxes, (vi) interest (including borrowing costs and dividend expenses on securities sold short and overdraft charges), (vii) litigation expenses (including litigation to which the Trust or the Funds may be a party and indemnification of the Trustees and officers with respect thereto), and (viii) other non-routine or extraordinary expenses (including expenses arising from mergers, acquisitions or similar transactions involving any Fund).

 

The fee is equal to the 0.74% annual rate of the average daily net assets of each Fund. Investment advisory fees are paid at the end of each outcome period.

Other Funds’ Service Providers

 

Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. (‘‘BBH’’) is the Funds’ administrator, fund accountant, transfer and dividend agent and custodian. BBH is primarily in the business of providing administrative, fund accounting and transfer agent services to retail and institutional mutual funds and ETFs.

 

Foreside Fund Services, LLC (the ‘‘Distributor’’), serves as the distributor of Creation Units of the Funds. The Distributor is a broker-dealer registered under the Exchange Act and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (‘‘FINRA’’).

 

Foreside Fund Officer Services, LLC provides the Funds with a Principal Financial Officer.

 

Stradley Ronon Stevens and Young, LLP serves as legal counsel to the Trust.

 

Cohen & Company, Ltd. serves as the Funds’ independent registered public accounting firm. The independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for auditing the annual financial statements of the Funds and performing tax compliance services.

 

NOTE 4 – PORTFOLIO SECURITIES

 

There were no aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of investments (excluding short-term investments) for the reporting year or period ended October 31, 2023.

 

NOTE 5 – PURCHASE AND SALE OF FUND SHARES

 

The Funds issue and redeem shares at NAV only with Authorized Participants and only in Creation Units (large blocks of 25,000 shares) or multiples thereof, generally in exchange for the deposit or delivery of a basket of instruments (including cash in lieu of any portion of such instruments) and/or an amount of cash that each Fund specifies each day. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, the shares are not redeemable by the Funds.

 

Individual shares may be purchased and sold only on a national securities exchange through brokers. Shares will be listed for trading on NYSE Arca, Inc. and because the shares will trade at market prices rather than NAV, shares may trade at prices greater than NAV (at a premium), at NAV, or less than NAV (at a discount).

 

Beneficial Ownership

 

The beneficial ownership, either directly or indirectly, of more than 25% of the voting securities of a fund creates a presumption of control of the fund under section 2(a)(9) of the 1940 Act. As of October 31, 2023, Allianz Life Insurance Company North America, the parent company of the Adviser (‘‘Allianz Life’’), owned more than 25% of the outstanding shares of AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer10 Mar ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer10 Sep ETF and AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer10 Nov ETF.

 

NOTE 6 – DISTRIBUTIONS AND TAXATION OF THE FUNDS

 

The Funds intend to elect and qualify each year for treatment as a regulated investment company (‘‘RIC’’) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the ‘‘Code’’). If the Funds meet certain minimum distribution requirements, a RIC is not subject to tax at the fund level on income and gains from investments that are timely distributed to shareholders. However, a Fund’s failure to qualify as a RIC or to meet minimum distribution requirements would result (if certain relief provisions were not available) in fund-level taxation and, consequently, a reduction in income available for distribution to shareholders.

 

The Funds may use the utilization of earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemption of shares (in lieu of making some cash distributions) in determining the portion of their income and gains that have been distributed. If the Funds use the utilization of earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemption of shares, they will allocate a portion of their undistributed investment company taxable income and net capital gains to redemptions of Fund shares and will correspondingly reduce the amount of such income and gains that they distribute in cash. If the IRS determines that the Funds’ allocation is improper and that the Funds have under-distributed their income and gain for any taxable year, the Funds may be liable for federal income and/or excise tax. If, as a result of such adjustment, the Funds fail to satisfy the distribution requirements under the Code as noted above, the Funds will not qualify that year as a RIC.

NOTE 7 – INDEMNIFICATION

 

The Trust will indemnify its officers and trustees for certain liabilities that may arise from the performance of their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, the Trust expects the risk of loss due to these warranties and indemnities to be remote.

 

NOTE 8 – RISK OF INVESTING IN THE FUNDS

 

The Funds’ investment strategy is different from more typical investment products, and the Funds may be unsuitable for some investors. It is important that investors understand the Funds’ investment strategy before making an investment in the Funds. Investors should carefully review the Funds’ investment objectives, strategies and risks included in the Funds’ prospectus before investing. Risks shown below that are applicable to ETFs, such as the Funds, also apply to the Underlying ETF.

 

FLEX Options Risk

 

The Funds will utilize FLEX Options issued and guaranteed for settlement by the OCC. The Funds bear the risk that the OCC will be unable or unwilling to perform its obligations under the FLEX Options contracts. In the unlikely event that the OCC becomes insolvent or is otherwise unable to meet its settlement obligations, the Funds could suffer significant losses. The Funds may experience substantial downside from specific FLEX Option positions and certain FLEX Option positions may expire worthless. The value of the underlying FLEX Options will be affected by, among other things, changes in the share price of the Underlying ETF, changes in interest rates, changes in the actual and implied volatility of the share price of the Underlying ETF

and the remaining time until the FLEX Options expire. The value of the FLEX Options does not increase or decrease at the same rate as the share price of the Underlying ETF; although they generally move in the same direction, it is possible they may move in different directions.

 

Underlying ETF Risk

 

The Funds invest in FLEX Options that derive their value from the Underlying ETF, and therefore the Funds’ investment performance largely depends on the investment performance of the Underlying ETF. The value of the Underlying ETF will fluctuate over time based on fluctuations in the values of the securities held by the Underlying ETF, which may be affected by changes in general economic conditions, expectations for future growth and profits, interest rates and the supply and demand for those securities. In addition, ETFs are subject to absence of an active market risk, premium/discount risk, tracking error risk and trading issues risk. Brokerage, tax and other expenses may negatively impact the performance of the Underlying ETF and, in turn, the value of the Funds’ investments. The Underlying ETF seeks to track the Underlying Index but may not exactly match the performance of the Underlying Index due to differences between the portfolio of the Underlying ETF and the components of the Underlying Index, fees and expenses, transaction costs, and other factors.

 

Market Risk

 

The Funds could lose money over short periods due to short-term market movements and over longer periods during more prolonged market downturns. Assets may decline in value due to factors affecting financial markets generally or particular asset classes or industries represented in the markets. The value of a FLEX Option or other asset may also decline due to general market conditions, economic trends or events that are not specifically related to the issuer of the security or other asset, or due to factors that affect a particular issuer or issuers, country, group of countries, region, market, industry, group of industries, sector or asset class. During a general market downturn, multiple asset classes may be negatively affected. Changes in market conditions and interest rates will not have the same impact on all types of securities. In addition, unexpected events and their aftermaths, such as pandemics, epidemics or other public health issues; natural, environmental or man-made disasters; financial, political or social disruptions; military conflict; terrorism and war; and other tragedies or catastrophes, can cause investor fear and panic, which can adversely affect the economies of many companies, sectors, nations, regions and the market in general, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen. Any such circumstances could have a materially negative impact on the value of the Funds’ shares and could result in increased market volatility. During any such events, the Funds’ shares may trade at increased premiums or discounts to their NAV.

 

Buffered Loss Risk

 

There can be no guarantee that the Funds will be successful in implementing their stated Buffer strategy in an Outcome Period. Despite the intended Buffer, a shareholder may lose their entire investment. If an investor purchases shares during an Outcome Period after the Underlying ETF’s share price has decreased, the investor may receive less, or none, of the intended benefit of the Buffer. The Funds do not provide principal protection or protection of gains and shareholders could experience significant losses including loss of their entire investment.

 

Capped Upside Return Risk

 

The Funds’ strategy seeks to provide returns that match the share price returns of the Underlying ETF at the end of the Outcome Period, subject to each Fund’s stated Cap. The Cap represents the absolute maximum percentage return an investor can achieve from an investment in a Fund held for the entire Outcome Period. In the event that the Underlying ETF experiences gains in excess of a Fund’s stated Cap for the Outcome Period, the Fund will not participate in those gains beyond the Cap. If an investor purchases shares during an Outcome Period after the Underlying ETF’s share price has increased, the investor may have little or no opportunity for investment gain on their shares for that Outcome Period due to the effect of the Cap. The Cap will change from one Outcome Period to the next and is unlikely to remain the same for consecutive Outcome Periods and could change significantly from one Outcome Period to another.

Investment Objective and Outcome Period Risk

 

There can be no guarantee that the Funds will be successful in their strategy to provide shareholders with a return that matches share price return of the Underlying ETF at the end of an Outcome Period, subject to the Cap and the Buffer. The Funds’ strategy is designed to produce the outcomes upon the expiration of the FLEX Options on the last business day of the Outcome Period, and it should not be expected that the outcomes will be provided at any point other than the end of the Outcome Period. If an investor purchases or sells shares during an Outcome Period, the returns realized by the investor will not match those that the Funds seek to achieve for the Outcome Period.

 

Tax Risk

 

To maintain its status as a RIC, the Funds must meet certain income, diversification and distributions tests. For purposes of the diversification test, the identification of the issuer (or, in some cases, issuers) of a particular Fund investment can depend on the terms and conditions of that investment. In particular, there is no published IRS guidance or case law on how to determine the ‘‘issuer’’ of certain derivatives that the Funds will enter into. The Funds intend to treat FLEX Options referencing an index as “issued” by the issuer of the securities underlying the index, which would allow the Funds to count the FLEX Options as automatically diversified investments under the Code’s diversification requirements. Based upon the language in the legislative history, the Funds that invest in FLEX Options on the Underlying ETF intend to treat the issuer of the FLEX Options as the referenced asset, which, assuming the referenced asset qualifies as a RIC, would allow such Funds to qualify for special rules in the RIC diversification requirements. In addition, the Funds intend to treat any income they may derive from the FLEX Options as “qualifying income” under the provisions of the Code applicable to RICs. If the income is not qualifying income or if the FLEX Options are not treated as issued by the issuer of the securities underlying the index or issued by the reference asset, as applicable, the Funds may not qualify, or may be disqualified, as a RIC. If the Funds do not qualify as a RIC for any taxable year and certain relief provisions are not available, the Funds’ taxable income will be subject to tax at the Fund level and to a further tax at the shareholder level when such income is distributed. Additionally, if a shareholder purchases shares after the Outcome Period has begun and shortly thereafter the Funds issue a dividend (commonly known as ‘‘buying a dividend’’), the entire distribution may be taxable to the shareholder even though a portion of the distribution effectively represents a return of the purchase price.

 

Valuation Risk

 

During periods of reduced market liquidity or in the absence of readily available market quotations for the holdings of the Funds, the ability to value the FLEX Options becomes more difficult and the judgment of the Adviser or a fair value pricing vendor (in accordance with the fair value procedures approved by the Board of Trustees of the Trust) may play a greater role in the valuation of the Funds’ holdings due to reduced availability of reliable objective pricing data. Consequently, while such determinations will be made in good faith, it may nevertheless be more difficult to accurately assign a daily value.

 

Liquidity Risk

 

In the event that trading in the underlying FLEX Options is limited or absent, the value of the Funds’ FLEX Options may decrease. There is no guarantee that a liquid secondary trading market will exist for the FLEX Options. The trading in FLEX Options may be less deep and liquid than the market for certain other securities. FLEX Options may be less liquid than certain non-customized options. In a less liquid market for the FLEX Options, the Funds may have difficulty closing out certain FLEX Options positions at desired times and prices. In a less liquid market for the FLEX Options, the liquidation of a large number of options may significantly impact the price of the options. A less liquid trading market may adversely impact the value of the FLEX Options and the value of your investment.

 

Cash Transactions Risk

 

The Funds may issue and redeem creation units of their shares solely or partially for cash, rather than in-kind for securities and portfolio instruments. As a result, an investment in the Funds may be less tax-efficient than an ETF that transacts principally in-kind. To the extent the Funds effect redemptions for cash, it may be required to sell portfolio securities or close derivatives positions in order to obtain the cash needed to distribute redemption proceeds. A sale of shares may result in capital gains or losses and may also result in higher brokerage costs. Moreover, cash transactions may have to be carried out over several days if the securities market is relatively illiquid and may involve considerable brokerage fees and taxes, which generally will be passed on to purchasers and redeemers of shares in the form of creation and redemption transaction fees. In addition, these factors may result in wider spreads between the bid and the offered prices of shares than for other ETFs.

October 31, 2023 (continued)

 

Non-Diversification

 

The Funds are classified as non-diversified under the 1940 Act. As a result, the Funds are only limited as to the percentage of their assets which may be invested in the securities of any one issuer by the diversification requirements imposed by the Code. The Funds may invest a relatively high percentage of their assets in a limited number of issuers. As a result, the Funds may be more susceptible to a single adverse economic or regulatory occurrence affecting one or more of these issuers, experience increased volatility and be highly invested in certain issuers.

 

Premium/Discount Risk

 

The Adviser cannot predict whether shares will trade on the Exchange below, at or above their NAV because the shares trade at market prices and not at NAV. Price differences can be especially pronounced during times of market volatility or stress. During these periods, the demand for shares may decrease considerably and cause the market price of shares to deviate significantly from the Fund’s NAV.

 

Active Markets Risk

 

There can be no assurance that an active trading market for the shares will develop or be maintained. The Funds face numerous market trading risks, including losses from trading in secondary markets, periods of high volatility and disruption in the creation/ redemption process of the Funds. In stressed market conditions, the market for shares may become less liquid in response to deteriorating liquidity in the markets for the Funds’ portfolio holdings, which may cause a significant variance in the market price of shares and their underlying value and wider bid-ask spreads.

 

NOTE 9 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

The Funds have evaluated the need for disclosure and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through the dates the financial statements were issued. Based on this evaluation, no adjustments were required to the financial statements.

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement whether due to error or fraud.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2023, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

We have served as the Funds’ auditor since 2020.

Disclosure of Fund Expenses

October 31, 2023 (unaudited)

 

Example

 

As a shareholder of a Fund, you may incur two potential types of costs: (1) transaction costs, such as brokerage commissions for the purchases and sales of your Fund shares, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. The following examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the period from May 1, 2023 until October 31, 2023.

 

Actual Expenses

 

The ‘‘Actual’’ columns in the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number under the heading ‘‘Actual Expenses Paid During the Period’’ to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

 

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

 

The ‘‘Hypothetical’’ columns in the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare ongoing costs of investing in a Fund to other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. The expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction fees, such as brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of Fund shares. Therefore, the numbers under the heading ‘‘Hypothetical Expenses Paid During the Six-Month Period’’ is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and may not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

At an in-person meeting of the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of AIM ETF Products Trust (the “Trust”) held September 19, 2023, the Board, including those Trustees (the “Independent Trustees”) who are not “interested persons” (as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”)) of the Trust, approved the renewal of the investment advisory agreement (the “Agreement”) between Allianz Investment Management LLC (the “Manager”) and the Trust with respect to each of the AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer10 Jan ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer20 Jan ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer10 Feb ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer20 Feb ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer10 Mar ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer20 Mar ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer10 Apr ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer20 Apr ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer10 May ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer20 May ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer10 Jun ETF, AllianzIM U.S. U.S. Large Cap Buffer20 Jun ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer10 Jul ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer20 Jul ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer10 Aug ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer20 Aug ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer10 Sep ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer20 Sep ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer10 Oct ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer20 Oct ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer10 Nov ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer20 Nov ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer10 Dec ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap Buffer20 Dec ETF, AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap 6 Month Buffer10 Jan/Jul ETF, and AllianzIM U.S. Large Cap 6 Month Buffer10 Apr/Oct ETF (each, a “Fund”), for an additional one-year period, ending December 31, 2024.

 

Under the Agreement, the Manager is obligated to pay all of the ordinary operating expenses of each Fund, except for certain excluded items (the “Unified Fee”). Information relevant to the approval of renewal was presented and considered at Board meetings held June 13, 2023, June 20-21, 2023, and September 19, 2023 (the “Meetings”). In considering renewal of the Agreement, the Independent Trustees also met in executive session with independent counsel, who provided assistance and advice.

 

The Board, including the Independent Trustees, evaluated the terms of the Agreement, reviewed information provided by the Manager in connection with the Agreement, and reviewed the duties and responsibilities of the Trustees in evaluating and renewing the Agreement. The materials provided for the Meetings included: (i) the Agreement; (ii) the Manager’s responses to an information request relating to the Agreement and the services thereunder; (iii) financial information relating to the Manager’s profitability in managing each Fund; (iv) information concerning the business, operations and compliance program of the Manager; and (v) a memorandum from independent counsel regarding the role and responsibilities of trustees in considering the renewal of investment advisory arrangements. The Board reviewed and considered information provided by

the Manager throughout the year at regular Board meetings and in executive sessions. At each such meeting, the Board was advised by independent counsel. The Board also considered data provided by the Manager, from an unaffiliated third-party database, comparing the advisory fee and expense ratio of each Fund with the fees and expenses of a peer group of similar U.S.-listed buffer ETFs (the “Peer Group”). The Board discussed the criteria used by the Manager for selecting the Peer Group and concluded that the data was useful and reliable for the purpose of reviewing the Agreement. Throughout the process, the Board had numerous opportunities to ask questions of and request additional materials from the Manager.

 

The Board is aware that various courts have interpreted provisions of the 1940 Act and have indicated in their decisions that the following factors may be relevant to an adviser’s compensation: the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the adviser, including the performance of the fund; the adviser’s cost of providing the services; the extent to which the adviser has realized or may realize “economies of scale” as the fund grows larger; any indirect benefits that have accrued or may accrue to the adviser and its affiliates as a result of the adviser’s relationship with the fund; performance and expenses of comparable funds; the profitability of acting as adviser to the fund; and the extent to which the independent board members are fully informed about all facts bearing on the adviser’s services and fees. The Board is aware of these factors and took them into account in its review of the Agreement for each Fund.

 

Shareholder reports are required to include a discussion of certain factors relating to the selection of the investment adviser and the approval of the advisory fee. The “factors” enumerated by the SEC are set forth below with the Board’s conclusions regarding such factors:

 

(a) The nature, extent and quality of services provided to each Fund by the Manager. The Board considered the scope of services provided under the Agreement. In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Manager, the Board reviewed the Manager’s compliance infrastructure and the financial strength and resources of the Manager and its parent organization. The Board also reviewed information regarding the qualifications, background and experience of the investment personnel responsible for the day-to-day management of each Fund, including expertise with hedging strategies and derivatives instruments. The Board considered the Manager’s experience as the investment manager to the Funds as well as to mutual funds underlying variable products and other accounts. The Board also considered the services provided to each Fund by the Manager, such as implementation of the Fund’s investment strategy, monitoring adherence to the Fund’s investment restrictions, and monitoring compliance with various Fund policies and procedures and with applicable securities regulations. Based on the factors above, as well as those discussed below, the Board concluded that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to each Fund by the Manager based on its experience, personnel, operations and resources.

 

(b) The cost of services provided to each Fund by the Manager, profitability and economies of scale. The Board reviewed the expense ratio and advisory fee paid by each Fund and considered the expense ratios and advisory fees of the Peer Group. The Board noted that each Fund’s advisory fee and net expense ratio were lower than the advisory fees and net expense ratios of all but one of the funds included in the Peer Group, but the Board also took into account that the buffer ETF strategy is relatively new and unique and, therefore, that the Peer Group is relatively limited. The Board took into consideration that the advisory fee was a “unified fee,” meaning that the Manager bears all of the ordinary operating expenses of the Funds, except for certain excluded items. The Board concluded that the advisory fee was reasonable.

 

The Board also evaluated the compensation and benefits received by the Manager and its affiliates from their relationship with each Fund, taking into account the Manager’s profitability. The Board noted that, due to the relatively recent inception of the Funds, the Funds were currently operating at a loss to the Manager and that each Fund had not yet gathered sufficient resources to result in any meaningful economies of scale; the Board determined to address economies of scale when assets under management reached appropriate levels.

 

(c) The investment performance of each Fund and the Manager. The Board considered the investment performance of each Fund, including how it compared to the performance of the Fund’s reference index and in light of the Fund’s buffered outcome investment strategy, recognizing that the Funds have only a limited performance history due to the relatively recent inception of the Funds. The Board considered that each Fund had finished one or more outcome periods in line with the performance outcome it seeks to achieve. The Board concluded that each Fund’s investment performance has been consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and strategies. The Board received and considered information about the premium/discount history of each Fund, which illustrated the number of times that the market price of the Fund trading on the secondary market closed above or below the net asset value of the Fund,

and by how much, measured in basis points. The Board also took into account the Manager’s experience managing mutual funds underlying variable products and other accounts. The Board noted that such experience demonstrated the Manager’s ability to effectively manage 1940 Act registered investment companies. After considering all of the information, the Board concluded that each Fund and its shareholders were likely to continue to benefit from the

Manager’s management.

 

In conclusion, after full consideration of the above factors, as well as such other factors as each member of the Board considered instructive in evaluating the Agreement, the Board concluded that the advisory fee was reasonable, and that the renewal of the Agreement was in the best interest of each Fund. No single factor was determinative to the decision of the Board, and each individual Trustee may have assigned different weights to various factors.
