Investment Objective/Strategy - The investment objective of the FT Vest U.S. Equity Max Buffer ETF - October (the "Fund") is to seek to provide investors with returns (before fees and expenses) that match the price return of the SPDR® S&P 500® ETF (the "Underlying ETF") up to a predetermined upside cap while seeking to provide the maximum available buffer (before fees and expenses), against Underlying ETF losses over an approximate period of one year (the "Target Outcome Period"). Over the Target Outcome Period from October 21, 2024 through October 17, 2025, the Fund seeks to buffer against 100% of Underlying ETF losses and limit gains up to a predetermined upside cap of 7.05%. When the Fund's fees and expenses are taken into account, the cap is 6.20% and the buffer is 99.15%.
There can be no assurance that the Fund's investment objectives will be achieved.
