TORONTO, Nov. 21, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FT Portfolios Canada Co. today announced the estimated annual capital
gains distributions for its ETFs listed below for the 2018 tax year.
Please note that these are estimated amounts only, as of October 30, 2018 and reflect forward looking
information which may cause the estimates to change before the ETF’s December 2018 tax year-end.
These estimates are for the year-end capital gains distributions only, which will be reinvested and the
resulting units immediately consolidated, so that the number of units held by each investor will not change. These estimates
do not include estimates of ongoing monthly or quarterly distribution amounts.
First Trust expects to announce the final year-end distribution amounts, as well as the monthly and quarterly
cash distribution amounts, on or about December 18, 2018. The record date for the 2018 annual distributions will be December
31, 2018, payable on January 8, 2019.
