GREENWICH, Conn., Sept. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Due to their inability to attract sufficient investment assets, the Board of Trustees of the Themes ETF Trust (the "Board") has decided to liquidate and close three ETFs (each, a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds"). The Board concluded that liquidating and closing the Funds would be in the best interest of the Funds and their shareholders.
The Funds closing are as follows:
Fund Name Ticker Exchange
Themes US Cash Flow Champions ETF LGCF Nasdaq
Themes US Small Cap Cash Flow Champions ETF SMCF Nasdaq
Themes Lithium & Battery Metal Miners ETF LIMI Cboe
The Funds will cease trading as of the close of regular trading on September 21, 2026 (the "Closing Date") and will be closed to purchases by investors at that time. LGCF and SMCF will cease trading on Nasdaq, and LIMI will cease trading on Cboe. The Funds will not accept creation or redemption orders after September 18, 2026.
Shareholders may sell their holdings in any Fund prior to the Closing Date, and customary brokerage charges may apply to these transactions. However, from the Closing Date through September 25, 2026 (the "Liquidation Date"), shareholders may only be able to sell their shares to certain broker-dealers, and there is no assurance that there will be a market for a Fund's shares during this period.
As the Funds prepare for liquidation, they will increase their cash holdings and reduce exposure to their underlying investments. Consequently, each Fund will no longer pursue its stated investment objective, which is inconsistent with the Fund's principal investment strategy.
On or about the Liquidation Date, each Fund will liquidate its assets and distribute cash on a pro rata basis to shareholders who have not previously redeemed or sold their shares. The amount of the liquidating distribution per share will be announced when it becomes available. These distributions are taxable events and may include accrued capital gains and dividends. As calculated on the Liquidation Date, each Fund's net asset value will reflect the costs associated with closing the Fund. Once the distributions have been completed, the Funds will terminate.
No dividend will be paid by the Funds prior to liquidation.

Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal.

Shares of ETFs are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the Fund. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns. Market price returns are based on the official closing price of an ETF share or, if the official closing price is not available, the midpoint between the national best bid and national best offer ("NBBO") as of the time the ETF calculates current NAV per share, and do not represent the returns you would receive if you traded shares at other times. NAVs are calculated using prices as of 4:00 PM Eastern Time. Indices are unmanaged and do not include the effect of fees, expenses, or sales charges. One cannot invest directly in an index.
