Amplify ETFs Exceeds $1 Billion in Assets Under Management

ETF issuer has achieved success across product lineup, including two funds with 5-star overall Morningstar ratings

CHICAGO, June 02, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Amplify ETFs announces the firm has accumulated over $1 billion in assets under management since the inception of its first exchange traded fund (ETF) in 2016. The diverse product line currently includes 10 ETFs across three categories: Core ($369 million), Income ($232 million) and Thematic ($473 million). Total firm assets stood at $1.074bil as of 5/31/20.

Amplify ETFs CEO Christian Magoon was an early advocate of the ETF structure and has been behind the launch of more than 70 ETFs in his career. “I am incredibly grateful for our internal team and exceptional partners as we surpass Amplify’s first billion of AUM. Hard work and collaboration between these groups has been a key driver of our success,” said Magoon. “From Amplify’s inception, we have strived to deliver ETFs that matter in the marketplace. To witness strong support from financial advisors and investors across our product line is both gratifying and humbling.”

Each product category has contributed to the overall growth of the firm, demonstrating Amplify’s ability to identify successful strategies across asset classes. The firm’s flagship and first fund to market, the Amplify Online Retail ETF (IBUY), has become a market leader with $374 million in assets under management (as of 5/31/20). IBUY is also one of two ETFs launched by Amplify to carry a 5-star overall rating by Morningstar. The fund’s success reflects the immense long-term opportunity for investors in the online retail space that has only been accelerated due to COVID-19.

The Morningstar Rating™ for funds, or “star rating”, is calculated for managed products with at least a three-year history. ETFs and open-ended mutual funds are considered a single population for comparative purposes. It is calculated based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a managed product’s monthly excess performance, placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The Morningstar Rating does not include any adjustment for sales loads. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a managed product is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five-, and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. While the 10-year overall star rating formula seems to give the most weight to the 10-year period, the most recent three-year period actually has the greatest impact because it is included in all three rating periods.
