| 1 | On February 18, 2025, all of the assets of a separately managed account (the “Predecessor Account”), which had been managed by the Fund’s investment adviser, Abacus FCF Advisors LLC, since March 18, 2021, and had investment policies, objectives, guidelines and restrictions that were in all material respects equivalent to those of the Fund, were transferred to the Fund in a tax-free transaction (the “Transaction”). Performance shown for periods prior to the date of the Transaction represents the performance of the Predecessor Account.

HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM LAST YEAR AND WHAT AFFECTED ITS PERFORMANCE?
During this period, ABXB was up 2.81% (NAV) and 2.81% (Market) and its benchmark returned 2.71%. On a benchmark relative basis, the best active contributor was iShares J.P. Morgan USD Emerging Markets Bond ETF. The main active detractor was iShares 10-20 Year Treasury Bond ETF. The period was marked by Federal Reserve rate cuts in late 2025 followed by an extended pause as sticky inflation and rising oil prices pushed longer-term Treasury yields higher, weighing on ABXB’s duration exposure. Emerging markets debt was the primary contributor as credit spreads tightened to multi-year lows amid resilient global growth and strong investor demand for yield. ABXB seeks current income and capital preservation by dynamically allocating across diverse fixed income categories using a trend-following approach that can move to cash during unfavorable market conditions, creating intermediate core bond plus exposure seeking downside protection.

1. ORGANIZATION
The Abacus FCF Innovation Leaders ETF (“ABOT”) (formerly known as the Donoghue Forlines Innovation ETF), Abacus FCF International Leaders ETF (“ABLG”) (formerly known as the FCF International Quality ETF), Abacus FCF Leaders ETF (“ABFL”) (formerly known as the FCF US Quality ETF), Abacus FCF Real Assets Leaders ETF (“ABLD”) (formerly known as the Donoghue Forlines Yield Enhanced Real Asset ETF), Abacus FCF Small Cap Leaders ETF (“ABLS”) and Abacus Flexible Bond Leaders ETF (“ABXB”) (formerly known as the Abacus Tactical High Yield ETF and, prior to that, Donoghue Forlines Tactical High Yield ETF) (each, a “Fund,” and collectively, the “Funds”) are each a series of the Abacus FCF ETF Trust (formerly known as the TrimTabs ETF Trust) (the “Trust”). The Trust was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on April 2, 2014. Each Fund is classified as a diversified, open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). ABFL commenced operations on September 27, 2016 and that is the date the initial creation units were established. The Fund seeks to generate long-term returns in excess of the total return of the Russell 3000® Index (the “Russell Index”), with less volatility than the Russell Index. ABLG commenced operations on June 27, 2017 and that is the date the initial creation units were established. The Fund seeks to generate long-term total returns. ABXB commenced operations on December 7, 2020 and that is the date the initial creation units were established. The Fund seeks to provide investment results that closely correspond, before fees and expenses, to the performance of the Abacus Flexible Bond Leaders Index. ABXB is a “fund of funds”, meaning it will generally invest its assets in other registered investment companies. ABOT commenced operations on December 7, 2020 and that is the date the initial creation units were established. The Fund seeks to provide investment results that closely correspond, before fees and expenses, to the performance of the Abacus FCF Innovation Leaders Index. ABLD commenced operations on December 13, 2021 and that is the date the initial creation units were established. The Fund seeks to provide investment results that closely correspond, before fees and expenses, to the performance of the Abacus FCF Real Assets Leaders Index. ABLS commenced operations on February 18, 2025 and that is the date the initial creation units were established. On February 18, 2025, all of the assets of a separately managed account (the “Predecessor Account”), which had been managed by the Abacus FCF Advisors LLC (the “Adviser”) since March 18, 2021, and had investment policies, objectives, guidelines and restrictions that were in all material respects equivalent to those of ABLS, were transferred to ABLS in a tax-free transaction (the “Transaction”). Prior to the date of the Transaction, ABLS had not commenced investment operations. As part of the commencement of operations on February 18, 2025, ABLS received an in-kind contribution from the Predecessor Account, which consisted of $10,508 of cash and $1,002,675 of securities which were recorded at their fair value. However, as the Transaction was determined to be a non-taxable transaction by management, the Fund elected to retain the securities’ original cost basis for book and tax purposes to align ongoing reporting. The cost of the contributed securities as of February 18, 2025 was $783,213, resulting in net unrealized appreciation on investments of $219,462 as of the Transaction date. ABLS issued 40,500 shares at $25.02 per share net asset value. ABLS seeks to provide investment results that closely correspond, before fees and expenses, generally to the performance of the Abacus FCF Small Cap Leaders Index.
Shares of the Funds are listed and traded on the Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (“Cboe” or the “Exchange”). Market prices for the shares may be different from their net asset value (“NAV”). Each Fund issues and redeems shares on a continuous basis at NAV only in large blocks of shares, called “Creation Units,” which generally consist of 25,000 shares. Creation Units are issued and redeemed principally in-kind for securities included in a specified universe. Once created, shares generally trade in the secondary market at market prices that change throughout the day in amounts less than a Creation Unit. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares are not redeemable securities of a Fund. Shares of a Fund may only be purchased directly from or redeemed directly to a Fund by certain financial institutions (“Authorized Participants”). An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker-dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a DTC participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with Quasar Distributors, LLC (the “Distributor”). Most retail investors do not qualify as Authorized Participants or have the resources to buy and sell whole Creation Units. Therefore, most retail investors may purchase shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker and are subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees.
Each Fund currently offers one class of shares, which have no front-end sales loads, no deferred sales charges, and no redemption fees. A purchase (i.e., creation) transaction fee is imposed for the transfer and other transaction costs associated with the purchase of Creation Units. Each Fund charges $300 for the standard fixed creation fee, payable to

the Custodian. In addition, a variable fee may be charged on all cash transactions or substitutes for Creation Units of up to a maximum of 2% as a percentage of the total value of the Creation Units subject to the transaction. Variable fees received by each Fund are displayed in the Capital Share Transactions section of the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. There were no variable fees charged in any Fund during the fiscal year. Each Fund may issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, with no par value. Shares of each Fund have equal rights and privileges with respect to such Fund.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Each Fund is a registered investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 Financial Services – Investment Companies.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by each Fund in the preparation of their financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Security Transactions and Investment Income: Investment securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Gains and losses realized on sales of securities are computed on the basis of specific identification. Dividend income and income from underlying investment companies is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable tax rules and regulations. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are accreted and amortized over the lives of the respective securities using the effective interest method.
Dividend Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Each Fund distributes all or substantially all of its net investment income to shareholders in the form of dividends.
Federal Income Taxes: The Funds comply with the requirements of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, necessary to qualify as regulated investment companies and distribute substantially all net taxable investment income and net realized gains to shareholders in a manner which results in no tax cost to the Funds. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. As of and during the year ended July 31, 2026, the Funds did not have any tax positions that did not meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. As of and during the year ended July 31, 2026, the Funds did not have liabilities for any unrecognized tax benefits on uncertain tax positions as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the year ended July 31, 2026, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Funds are subject to examination by U.S. taxing authorities for the prior three fiscal years.
Currency Translation: Assets and liabilities, including investment securities, denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates supplied by one or more pricing vendors on the valuation date. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates on the dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in exchange rates on investment securities are included with the net realized gain or loss and net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments in the Funds’ Statements of Operations. The realized gain or loss and unrealized appreciation or depreciation resulting from all other transactions denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are disclosed separately.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that 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.
Share Valuation: The NAV per share of each Fund is calculated by dividing the sum of the value of the securities held by the Fund, plus cash and other assets, minus all liabilities (including estimated accrued expenses) by the total number of shares outstanding for the Fund, rounded to the nearest cent. The offering and redemption price per share for each Fund is equal to the Fund’s net asset value per share.

July
31, 2026(Continued)
Guarantees and Indemnifications: The Funds indemnify their officers and trustees for certain liabilities that may arise from the performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts with its vendors and others that provide for general indemnifications. The Trust and Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds. However, based on industry experience, the Funds expect that risk of loss to be remote.
Reclassification of Capital Accounts: U.S. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets relating to permanent differences be reclassified between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or NAV per share. For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2026, the following table shows the reclassifications made:

Underlying Investment in Other Investment Companies: ABXB seeks to provide investment results that closely correspond, before fees and expenses, to the performance of the Abacus Flexible Bond Leaders Index. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in Underlying ETFs. As of July 31, 2026, the Fund did not hold any investment that exceeded 20% of its total net assets.
The Funds participate in the securities lending program and receive cash collateral in return for securities lent. The collateral is invested in the Mount Vernon Liquid Assets Portfolio, LLC of which the investment objective is to seek to maximize current income to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital and liquidity and to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per unit by investing in dollar-denominated securities with remaining maturities of 397 calendar days or less. As of July 31, 2026, none of the Funds had an investment in the Mount Vernon Liquid Assets Portfolio, LLC that exceeded 20% of their total net assets.
Subsequent Events: The Trust has evaluated the need for disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued. Based on this evaluation, no adjustments or disclosures were required to the financial statements.
3. SECURITIES VALUATION
Investment Valuation: Each Fund calculates its net asset value (“NAV”) each day the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) is open for trading as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE, normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time (the “NAV Calculation Time”).
Equity securities are valued primarily on the basis of market quotations reported on stock exchanges and other securities markets around the world. If an equity security is listed on a national securities exchange, the security is valued at the closing price or, if the closing price is not readily available, the mean of the closing bid and asked prices.
Investments in other open-end investment companies, including money market funds, are valued at the investment company’s net asset value per share, with the exception of exchange-traded open-end investment companies, which are priced as equity securities described above.
Units of Mount Vernon Liquid Assets Portfolio, LLC are not traded on an exchange and are valued at the investment company’s NAV per share as provided by its administrator.
Deposit accounts are valued at acquisition cost, which approximates fair value. Market quotations and indicative bids are obtained from outside pricing services.
The Funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has designated the Adviser to serve as the valuation designee, pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, to perform the fair value determinations relating to any or all Fund investments. Accordingly, if a market quotation is not readily available or otherwise becomes unreliable, the Adviser will determine

NOTES

in good faith the price of the security held by the Funds based on a determination of the security’s fair value pursuant to policies and procedures approved by the Board. In addition, the Adviser may use fair valuation to price securities that trade on a foreign exchange when a significant event has occurred after the foreign exchange closes but before the time at which the Funds’ NAVs are calculated. Such valuations would typically be categorized as Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy described below.
Foreign exchanges typically close before the time at which Fund share prices are calculated and may be closed altogether on some days when shares of the Funds are traded. Significant events affecting a foreign security may include, but are not limited to: corporate actions, earnings announcements, litigation or other events impacting a single issuer; governmental action that affects securities in one sector or country; natural disasters or armed conflicts affecting a country or region; or significant domestic or foreign market fluctuations.
Fair valuations and valuations of investments that are not actively trading involve judgment and may differ materially from valuations that would have been used had greater market activity occurred.
Fair Valuation Measurement: The FASB established a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP. Under FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, various inputs are used in determining the value of each Fund’s investments. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The three Levels of inputs of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:
|
Level 1 – |
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
|
Level 2 – |
Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data. |
|
Level 3 – |
Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available; representing the Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability and would be based on the best information available. |
A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Funds’ investments as of July 31, 2026:

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has led to unprecedented market and policy responses of governments and regulators around the world. There is no functioning or orderly market to facilitate the liquidation of any security impacted by Russia-related sanctions. As a result, the fair value of the Russia-related sanctioned security held by the Fund has been reduced to zero. |
Management has determined that the amount of Level 3 securities compared to total net assets is not material for ABLG; therefore, the rollforward of Level 3 securities is not shown for the year ended July 31, 2026.
Accounting Pronouncements: In June 2022, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2022-03, which amends Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions (“ASU 2022-03”). ASU 2022-03 clarifies guidance for fair value measurement of an equity security subject to a contractual sale restriction and establishes new disclosure requirements for such equity securities. ASU 2022-03 is currently effective for the Funds. Management has determined that there were no significant impacts of these amendments on the Funds’ financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. Effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, the amendments require greater disaggregation of disclosures related to income taxes paid. The Funds have adopted ASU 2023-09 as of July 31, 2026, with no material impact on the Funds’ financial statements.
Segment Reporting: Each Fund operates as a single segment entity. Each Fund’s income, expenses, assets, and performance are regularly monitored and assessed by the Chief Operating Officer/Chief Compliance Officer of the Adviser, who serves as the chief operating decision maker, using the information presented in the financial statements and financial highlights.
4. OTHER RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement (“Investment Advisory Agreement”) between the Trust, on behalf of the Funds, and the Adviser, the Adviser provides investment advice to the Funds and oversees the day-to-day operations of the Funds, subject to the direction and control of the Board and the officers of the Trust. The Adviser administers the Funds’ business affairs, provides office facilities and equipment and certain clerical, bookkeeping and administrative services. The Adviser bears the costs of all advisory and non-advisory services required to operate the Funds, including payment of Trustee compensation, in exchange for a single unitary management fee. For services provided to the Funds, ABLG and ABFL pay the Adviser 0.54% and 0.49%, respectively, of their average daily net assets. ABOT, ABLD, ABLS and ABXB each pay the Adviser 0.59% at an annual rate based on each Fund’s average daily net assets. The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive a portion of the management fee for ABOT, ABLD, ABLS and ABXB equal to 0.20% of each Fund’s average daily net assets through at least November 28, 2026. There are no expense recapture provisions in the fee waiver agreements.
Certain officers and a Trustee of the Trust are affiliated with the Adviser and are not paid any fees by the Funds for serving in such capacities.
5. SERVICE AND CUSTODY AGREEMENTS
The Funds have entered into Service Agreements with U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC (“Fund Services” or “Administrator”), doing business as U.S. Bank Global Fund Services, and a Custody Agreement with U.S. Bank, N.A. (“USB”), an affiliate of Fund Services. Under these agreements, Fund Services and USB provide certain transfer agency, administrative, accounting and custody services and are paid by the Adviser under the unitary fee arrangement noted above.
Quasar Distributors, LLC (“Quasar”) acts as the Funds’ principal underwriter in a continuous public offering of the Funds’ shares. Quasar is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Foreside Financial Group, LLC (“Foreside”), doing business as ACA Group.
The Trust has adopted a distribution and service plan (“Rule 12b-1 Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the Rule 12b-1 Plan, each Fund is authorized to pay distribution fees in connection with the sale and distribution of its shares and pay service fees in connection with the provision of ongoing services to shareholders. To date, the Rule 12b-1 Plan has not been implemented for the Funds and there is no current intention to implement the Rule 12b-1 Plan.

The difference between book and tax-basis cost is attributable to the realization for tax purposes of unrealized gains on investments in publicly traded partnerships and wash sales. Under tax law, certain capital and foreign currency losses realized after October 31 and within the taxable year are deemed to arise on the first business day of each Fund’s next taxable year. The other accumulated losses presented in the table above for ABLG and ABLD differ from the capital loss carryforwards presented in the table below due to foreign currency unrealized gains in ABLG and ABLD, and accumulated outstanding passive activity losses from partnership interests in ABLD.

8. SECURITIES LENDING
Following terms of a securities lending agreement with USB, each Fund may lend securities from its portfolio to brokers, dealers and financial institutions in order to increase the return on its portfolio, primarily through the receipt of borrowing fees and earnings on invested collateral. Any such loan must be continuously secured by collateral in cash or cash equivalents maintained on a current basis in an amount at least equal to 105% of the value of the loaned securities that are foreign securities or 102% of the value of any U.S. loaned securities. Loans shall be marked to market daily. If the market value of the collateral at the close of trading on a business day is less than the margin percentage of the market value of the loaned securities at the close of trading that day, reasonable efforts will be made to seek an additional amount of collateral the following business day. During the time securities are on loan, the borrower will pay the Funds any accrued income on those securities, and the Funds may invest the cash collateral and earn income or receive an agreed-upon fee from a borrower that has delivered cash-equivalent collateral. In determining whether or not to lend a security to a particular broker, dealer or financial institution, the Adviser considers all relevant facts and circumstances, including the size, creditworthiness and reputation of the broker-dealer or financial institution. Securities lending involves the risk of a default or insolvency of the borrower. In either of these cases, a Fund could experience delays in recovering securities or collateral or could lose all or part of the value of the loaned securities. A Fund also could lose money in the event of a decline in the value of the collateral provided for loaned securities. Additionally, the loaned portfolio securities may not be available to the Fund on a timely basis and the Fund may therefore lose the opportunity to sell the securities at a desirable price. Any decline in the value of a security that occurs while the security is out on loan would continue to be borne by the Funds.
Each Fund receives cash as collateral in return for securities lent, if any, as part of the securities lending program. The collateral is invested in the Mount Vernon Liquid Assets Portfolio, LLC of which the investment objective is to seek to maximize current income to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital and liquidity and maintain a stable NAV of $1.00 per unit. As of July 31, 2026, the Funds held the following amounts in the Mount Vernon Liquid Assets Portfolio, LLC:

The remaining contractual maturity of all securities lending transactions is overnight and continuous. The Funds are not subject to a master netting agreement with respect to securities lending; therefore no additional disclosures are required. The income earned by the Funds on investments of cash collateral received from borrowers for the securities loaned to them are reflected in the Funds’ Statements of Operations. Securities lending income, as disclosed in the

Funds’ Statements of Operations, represents the income earned from the investment of cash collateral, net of fee rebates paid to the borrower and net of fees paid to the Custodian as lending agent.
9. CERTAIN RISKS
Concentrations of Credit Risk. The Funds maintain cash and securities in custody accounts with a high-credit quality financial institution. Cash balances are held in a money market deposit account and may, at times, exceed the limits insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). To the extent cash balances exceed applicable FDIC insurance coverage, the Funds are exposed to credit risk associated with the financial institution holding such deposits.
Concentration Risk. A fund concentrated in an industry or group of industries is likely to present more risks than a fund that is broadly diversified over several industries or groups of industries. Compared to the broad market, an individual industry or group of related industries may be more strongly affected by changes in the economic climate, broad market shifts, moves in a particular dominant stock or regulatory changes.
Depositary Receipts Risk. The risks of investments in depositary receipts are substantially similar to a direct investment in a foreign security. Returns on investments in foreign securities could be more volatile than, or trail the returns on, investments in U.S. securities. Exposures to foreign securities entail special risks, including due to: differences in information available about foreign issuers; differences in investor protection standards in other jurisdictions; capital controls risks, including the risk of a foreign jurisdiction imposing restrictions on the ability to repatriate or transfer currency or other assets; political, diplomatic and economic risks; regulatory risks; and foreign market and trading risks, including the costs of trading and risks of settlement in foreign jurisdictions. In addition, depositary receipts may not track the price of the underlying foreign securities, and their value may change materially at times when the U.S. markets are not open for trading.
Emerging Markets Risk. Investments in emerging markets are generally subject to greater market volatility, political, social and economic instability, uncertain trading markets and more governmental limitations than investments in more developed markets. Companies in emerging markets may be subject to less stringent regulatory, accounting, auditing, and financial reporting and recordkeeping standards than companies in more developed countries, which could impede the Adviser’s ability to evaluate such companies or impact ABLG’s performance. Securities laws and the enforcement of systems of taxation in many emerging market countries may change quickly and unpredictably, and the ability to bring and enforce actions may be limited or otherwise impaired. In addition, investments in emerging markets may experience lower trading volume, greater price fluctuations, delayed settlement, unexpected market closures and lack of timely information, and may be subject to additional transaction costs.
Equity Investing Risk. An investment in ABFL, ABLG, ABOT, ABLD or ABLS involves risks similar to those of investing in any fund holding equity securities, such as market fluctuations, changes in interest rates and perceived trends in stock prices. The values of equity securities could decline generally or could underperform other investments. In addition, securities may decline in value due to factors affecting a specific issuer, market or securities markets generally.
Foreign Investment Risk. Returns on investments in foreign securities could be more volatile than, or trail the returns on, investments in U.S. securities. Exposures to foreign securities entail special risks, including due to: differences in information available about foreign issuers; differences in investor protection standards in other jurisdictions; capital controls risks, including the risk of a foreign jurisdiction imposing restrictions on the ability to repatriate or transfer currency or other assets; political, diplomatic and economic risks; regulatory risks; and foreign market and trading risks, including the costs of trading and risks of settlement in foreign jurisdictions. In addition, the Fund’s investments in securities denominated in other currencies could decline due to changes in local currency relative to the value of the U.S. dollar, which may affect the Fund’s returns. Non-U.S. issuers also may not be subject to uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards and there may be less reliable and publicly available financial and other information about such issuers, as compared to U.S. issuers.
Geographic Region Risk. To the extent that the Funds invest a significant portion of their assets in a specific geographic region or a particular country, the Funds will generally have more exposure to that region or country’s economic risks. In the event of economic or political turmoil or a deterioration of diplomatic relations in a region or

country where a significant portion of the Funds’ assets are invested, the Funds may experience substantial illiquidity or reduction in the value of the Funds’ investments. Adverse conditions in a certain region or country can also adversely affect securities of issuers in other countries whose economies appear to be unrelated.
High Yield (Junk Bond) Securities Risk. High yield securities and unrated securities of similar credit quality are considered to be speculative with respect to the issuer’s continuing ability to make principal and interest payments and are generally subject to greater levels of credit quality risk than investment grade securities. High yield securities are usually issued by companies, including smaller and medium capitalization companies, without long track records of sales and earnings, or with questionable credit strength. These companies may be particularly affected by interest rate increases, as they may find it more difficult to borrow money to continue or expand operations, or may have difficulty in repaying floating rate loans. These fixed-income securities are considered below “investment-grade.” The retail secondary market for these “junk bonds” may be less liquid than that of higher-rated fixed income securities, and adverse conditions could make it difficult at times to sell these securities or could result in lower prices than higher-rated fixed income securities. A lack of publicly available information, irregular trading activity and/or wide bid/ask spreads, among other factors, may, in certain circumstances, make high-yield securities more difficult to sell at an advantageous time or price than other types of securities. These factors may result in an Underlying ETF being unable to realize full value for these securities and/or may result in a Fund not receiving the proceeds from a sale of a high-yield security for an extended period after such sale, each of which could result in losses to an Underlying ETF. These risks can reduce the value of the shares of an Underlying ETF and the income it earns.
MLP Risk. An MLP is a publicly traded partnership primarily engaged in the transportation, storage, processing, refining, marketing, exploration, production, and mining of minerals and natural resources. MLP common units, like other equity securities, can be affected by macroeconomic and other factors affecting the stock market in general, expectations of interest rates, investor sentiment towards an issuer or certain market sector, changes in a particular issuer’s financial condition, or unfavorable or unanticipated poor performance of a particular issuer (in the case of MLPs, generally measured in terms of distributable cash flow). Prices of common units of individual MLPs, like the prices of other equity securities, also can be affected by fundamentals unique to the partnership or company, including earnings power and coverage ratios.
MLP Tax Risk. MLPs taxed as partnerships, subject to the application of certain partnership audit rules, generally do not pay U.S. federal income tax at the partnership level. Rather, each partner is allocated a share of the MLP’s income, gains, losses, deductions and expenses. A change in current tax law, or a change in the underlying business mix of a given MLP, could result in an MLP being treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, which would result in such MLP being required to pay U.S. federal income tax on its taxable income. The classification of an MLP as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes would have the effect of reducing the amount of cash available for distribution by the MLP. Thus, if any of the MLPs owned by ABLD were treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes, it could result in a reduction in the value of your investment in ABLD and lower income.
Real Assets Industry Group Risk. The risks of investing in the Real Assets Industry Group include the risks of focusing investments in the real estate, infrastructure, commodities and natural resources related sectors, and adverse developments in these sectors may significantly affect the value of the Shares. Accordingly, ABLD is more susceptible to adverse developments affecting one or more of these sectors than a fund that invests more broadly, and the Fund may perform poorly during a downturn affecting issuers in those sectors. Companies involved in activities related to the Real Assets Industry Group can be adversely affected by, among other things, government regulation or deregulation, global political and economic developments, energy and commodity prices, the overall supply and demand for oil and gas, changes in tax zoning laws, environmental issues, and low inflation.
Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) Risk. A REIT is a company that pools investor funds to invest primarily in income producing real estate or real estate related loans or interests. ABLD may be subject to certain risks associated with direct investments in REITs. REITs may be affected by changes in their underlying properties and by defaults by borrowers or tenants. Mortgage REITs may be affected by the quality of the credit extended. Furthermore, REITs are dependent on specialized management skills. Some REITs may have limited diversification and may be subject to risks inherent in financing a limited number of properties. REITs depend generally on their ability to generate cash flow to make distributions to shareholders or unitholders and may be subject to defaults by borrowers and to self-liquidations.

Sector Focus Risk. To the extent that a Fund’s investments are focused on a particular sector, the Fund is subject to loss due to adverse occurrences that may affect that industry or group of industries or sector. Focusing on a particular sector could increase a Fund’s volatility over the short term.
Small Capitalization Company Risk. Investing in securities of small capitalization companies involves greater risk than customarily is associated with investing in larger, more established companies. These companies’ securities may be more volatile and less liquid than those of more established companies. Often, small capitalization companies and the industries in which they focus are still evolving and, as a result, they may be more sensitive to changing market conditions. Small capitalization companies may be particularly affected by interest rate increases, as they may find it more difficult to borrow money to continue or expand operations or may have difficulty in repaying any loans which are floating rate.
Underlying ETFs Risk. In seeking to track its Underlying Index, ABXB invests a portion of its assets in Underlying ETFs. In those situations, the Fund’s investment performance is directly related to the performance of the Underlying ETFs. The Fund’s net asset value (or “NAV”) will change with changes in the value of the Underlying ETFs based on their market valuations. An investment in the Fund will entail more costs and expenses than a direct investment in the Underlying ETFs. As the Underlying ETFs, or the Fund’s allocations among the Underlying ETFs, change from time to time, or to the extent that the total annual fund operating expenses of any Underlying ETF changes, the weighted average operating expenses borne by the Fund may increase or decrease.
U.S. Government Securities Risk. This is the risk that the U.S. government will not provide financial support to its agencies, instrumentalities or sponsored enterprises if it is not obligated to do so by law. Certain U.S. government securities purchased by the Fund are neither issued nor guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury and, therefore, may not be backed by the full faith and credit of the United States. The maximum potential liability of the issuers of some U.S. government securities may greatly exceed their current resources, including any legal right to support from the U.S. Treasury. It is possible that the issuers of such securities will not have the funds to meet their payment obligations in the future.

The Funds’ financial highlights for the year ended July 31, 2022 were audited by other auditors whose report dated September 29, 2022, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial highlights.
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 July 31, 2026, by correspondence with the custodian. 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 2023.

Item 11. Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Investment Advisory Contract.
March 26, 2026, Consideration of the Renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreement for Abacus FCF Leaders ETF, Abacus FCF International Leaders ETF, Abacus Flexible Bond Leaders ETF, Abacus FCF Innovation Leaders ETF, Abacus FCF Small Cap Leaders ETF, and Abacus FCF Real Assets Leaders ETF
At a meeting held on March 26, 2026 (the “March 2026 Meeting”), the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Abacus FCF ETF Trust (the “Trust”), including the Trustees of the Trust who were not “interested persons,” as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Independent Trustees”), reviewed and unanimously approved the renewal of the investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) between Abacus FCF Advisors LLC (“Abacus FCF”) and the Trust, on behalf of Abacus FCF Leaders ETF (“ABFL”), Abacus FCF International Leaders ETF (“ABLG”), Abacus Flexible Bond Leaders ETF (“ABXB”), Abacus FCF Innovation Leaders ETF (“ABOT”), Abacus FCF Small Cap Leaders ETF (“ABLS”) and Abacus FCF Real Assets Leaders ETF (“ABLD” and, collectively with ABFL, ABLG, ABXB, ABOT and ABLS, the “Renewal Funds” and, each, a “Renewal Fund”).
In evaluating the Advisory Agreement, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, reviewed the materials furnished by Abacus FCF. The Board considered the following factors, among others, in connection with its renewal of the Advisory Agreement, as it pertained to each Renewal Fund: (1) the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by Abacus FCF; (2) the investment performance of each Renewal Fund; (3) a comparison of fees and expenses of each Renewal Fund to its respective peer group (each, a “Peer Group”); (4) the profitability to Abacus FCF; (5) the extent to which economies of scale might be realized as each Renewal Fund grows; and (6) any ancillary benefits derived by Abacus FCF from its relationship with the Renewal Funds. The Board also considered the materials that they had received at past meetings, including at routine quarterly meetings, relating to the nature, extent and quality of Abacus FCF’s services, including information concerning each Renewal Fund’s advisory fee, total expense ratio and performance.
In addition, prior to approving the Advisory Agreement, the Independent Trustees met in executive session with counsel to the Independent Trustees without representatives of Abacus FCF. The Independent Trustees reviewed with counsel to the Independent Trustees the legal standards applicable to their consideration of the Advisory Agreement for each Renewal Fund. The Independent Trustees relied upon the advice of counsel and their own business judgment in determining the material factors to be considered in evaluating the Advisory Agreement and the weight to be given to each such factor.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
With respect to the nature, extent and quality of the services provided, the Board considered the portfolio management and other personnel of Abacus FCF, the compliance functions of Abacus FCF, and the financial condition of Abacus FCF. Further, the Board evaluated the integrity of Abacus FCF’s personnel, the stock selection models on which Abacus FCF relies in managing each Renewal Fund, and the management of each Renewal Fund’s investments in accordance with its stated investment objective and policies. The Board also considered that ABOT, ABXB, ABLS and ABLD utilize index-based strategies pursuant to which Abacus FCF’s affiliate serves as index provider. The Board

Information (Unaudited)(Continued)
further considered the demonstrated ability of the portfolio management teams for each Renewal Fund to continue to manage each Renewal Fund’s investments in accordance with each Renewal Fund’s stated investment objective.
Based on its review and other considerations, the Board concluded, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, that the nature, extent and quality of the services supported renewal of the Advisory Agreement.
Performance
With respect to the performance of each Renewal Fund, the Board considered each Renewal Fund’s one-year, three-year, five-year and since inception performance, as applicable. In this regard, among other things, the Board considered each Renewal Fund’s total return compared to the total return of its benchmark index and Peer Group.
The Board observed that ABFL had outperformed its Peer Group median and average total returns for the since inception period, underperformed its Peer Group median and average total returns for the one-year, three-year and five-year periods, and underperformed its benchmark for the one-year, three-year, five-year and since inception periods.
The Board observed that ABLG had underperformed its benchmark and Peer Group median and average total returns for the one-year, three-year, five-year and since inception periods. The Board considered, however, that ABFL and ABLG have invested in accordance with their investment mandates to seek high-conviction exposure to companies with strong free cash flow return on invested capital and, therefore, have performed as expected.
The Board observed that ABXB had outperformed its benchmark for each of the one-year, three-year, five-year and since inception periods, outperformed its Peer Group median total returns for the one-year and three-year periods and outperformed its Peer Group average total returns for the one-year period, but underperformed its Peer Group median total returns for the five-year and since inception periods and its Peer Group average total returns for the three-year, five-year and since inceptions periods. The Board considered that ABXB’s underlying index implemented changes to its rules-based methodology on June 6, 2025, and how those changes may have impacted ABXB’s recent performance.
The Board observed that ABOT had underperformed its benchmark and Peer Group median and average total returns for the one-year, three-year, five-year and since inception periods. The Board considered, however, that ABOT performed in accordance with its investment objective of tracking its underlying index.
The Board observed that ABLD outperformed its Peer Group average total returns for the one-year, three-year and since inception periods, outperformed its benchmark and Peer Group median total returns for the three-year and since inception periods, and only underperformed its benchmark and Peer Group median total returns for the one-year period.
Finally, the Board observed that ABLS had underperformed its benchmark and Peer Group median and average total returns for the since inception period. The Board noted that ABLS is a relatively new fund, has limited performance information and performed in accordance with its investment objective of tracking its underlying index.
Based on its review and other considerations, the Board concluded, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, that each Renewal Fund’s investment performance supported renewal of the Advisory Agreement.
Comparative Fees and Expenses
The Board considered the fee structure of the Advisory Agreement with respect to each Renewal Fund. The Board also reviewed information compiled by the Renewal Funds’ administrator comparing each Renewal Fund’s advisory fee and net expense ratio to the advisory fees and net expense ratios of each Renewal Fund’s respective Peer Group. The Board noted that ABFL’s, ABLG’s and ABLD’s management fees and net expense ratios were above the median and average, but below the maximum, management fees and net expense ratios of their respective Peer Groups. The Board also considered that ABFL and ABLG were actively managed ETFs when considering their fees and expenses. The Board also noted that ABOT's management fees were below the median and the same as the average management fees of its Peer Group and its net expense ratios were below the median and average the net expense ratios of its Peer Group. The Board noted that ABXB’s net expense ratio was below the median and average net expense ratios of its Peer Group, and that ABXB’s management fee was below the median and slightly above the average management fees of its Peer Group. Lastly, the Board noted that ABLS’s management fee was above the median and average, but below the maximum, management fees of its Peer Group, and that ABLS’s net expense ratio was below the average and above the

Information (Unaudited)(Continued)
median net expense ratios of its Peer Group. Based on their review and other considerations, the Board concluded, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, that each Renewal Fund’s fees and expenses supported renewal of the Advisory Agreement.
Costs and Profitability
The Board also reviewed the compensation and benefits received by Abacus FCF from its relationships with the Renewal Funds. In this regard, the Board took into consideration that the advisory fee for each Renewal Fund was structured as a “unified fee,” pursuant to which Abacus FCF would pay all of the Funds’ expenses, except for the fee payment under the Advisory Agreement, payments under each Fund’s Rule 12b-1 plan (if any), brokerage expenses, acquired fund fees and expenses, taxes, interest (including borrowing costs and dividend expenses on securities sold short), litigation expenses and other extraordinary expenses (including litigation to which the Trust or a Renewal Fund may be a party and indemnification of the Trustees and officers with respect thereto), and considered the benefits that accrue to each Renewal Fund as a result of this fee structure. The Board noted that Abacus FCF is therefore contractually responsible for compensating the Trust’s other service providers and paying each Renewal Fund’s other expenses out of its own fees and resources. The Board also considered that ABLS, ABOT, ABXB and ABLD currently experience benefits from the fee waiver agreements with Abacus FCF, pursuant to which Abacus FCF has contractually agreed to waive a portion of each such Fund’s management fee.
Based on their review and other considerations, the Board concluded, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, that the profitability analysis supported renewal of the Advisory Agreement.
Economies of Scale
The Board considered the information provided by Abacus FCF as to the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as a Renewal Fund grows and whether anticipated fee levels reflect economies of scale for the benefit of shareholders. The Board noted that, because the advisory fee for each Renewal Fund does not currently include breakpoints, any reduction in fixed costs associated with the management of a Renewal Fund would be enjoyed by Abacus FCF; however, the Board also noted that the unified fee structure provides a level of certainty in expenses for each Renewal Fund. Based on their review, the current asset levels of the Renewal Funds, and other considerations, the Board concluded, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, that the possibility of realizing future economies of scale was not a material factor in connection with the renewal of the Advisory Agreement at this time.
Ancillary Benefits
The Board then considered the extent to which Abacus FCF might derive ancillary (or fall-out) benefits as a result of their relationships with the Renewal Funds. For example, the Board noted that Abacus FCF may engage in soft dollar transactions in the future, although it does not currently plan to do so. The Board also noted that Abacus FCF may obtain a reputational benefit from the success of any Renewal Fund. Based on its review and other considerations, the Board concluded, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, that ancillary benefits were not a material factor in connection with the renewal of the Advisory Agreement.
Conclusion
Based on their review of the facts and circumstances related to the Advisory Agreement, the Trustees concluded that each Renewal Fund and its shareholders could benefit from Abacus FCF’s continued management. Thus, the Board determined that the renewal of the Advisory Agreement with respect to each Renewal Fund was appropriate and in the best interest of each Renewal Fund and its shareholders. In its deliberations, the Board did not identify any particular information that was all-important or controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to different factors. Based on their review, including consideration of each of the factors referenced above, the Trustees determined, in the exercise of their reasonable business judgment, that the advisory arrangements for each Renewal Fund, as outlined in the Advisory Agreement, were fair and reasonable in light of the services performed, expenses incurred and such other matters as the Board considered relevant.
After full consideration of the above factors as well as other factors, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously approved the continuance of the Advisory Agreement on behalf of each Renewal Fund.
