| Footnote | Description |
Footnote(a) |
For the period August 4, 2025 (commencement of operations) to July 31, 2026, the Fund at NAV returned 30.00%. For the same period, the Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index, a broad-based securities market index, returned 19.87%, and the ICE BofA US 3-Month Treasury Bill Index, which serves as the style-specific index, returned 3.76%.
The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by pursuing long-term positive returns independent of market cycles. This systematic strategy combines two complementary investment approaches: dedicated global equity exposures and macro strategies. Macro strategies employ long and short exposures across distinct trading styles and asset classes, including stocks, bonds, currencies, and commodities. The Fund’s goal is to outperform traditional long-only equity investments, while reducing drawdowns during protracted periods of stress. The Fund takes positions in highly liquid futures contracts in more than 20 different assets across global equity, bond, currency, and commodity markets, as well as in ETFs. For the reporting period, the Fund’s gains were driven by long positions in equities and commodities. Currencies and commodities had a mixed impact on performance over the period. Fixed income positions detracted from performance over the period.
FACTOR

Equities
Negative
As prices rose in a number of commodities markets, the Fund saw gains from its long positions, especially in energies and gold. Agricultural commodities and livestock detracted from performance.
The preceding information is the opinion of the investment adviser and/or sub-adviser, as appropriate, through the end of the period stated. Any such opinions are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions and should not be relied upon as investment advice. Past performance is no guarantee of future results, and there is no guarantee that market forecasts will be realized.
The following graph compares the initial and subsequent account values over the life of the Fund. It assumes a $10,000 initial investment from inception, in an appropriate, broad-based securities market index and style-specific index for the same period. Performance assumes reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions.

Virtus Duff & Phelps Clean Energy ETF | $ |
For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2026, the Fund at NAV returned 36.94%. For the same period, the S&P Global Broad Market Index (net), a broad-based securities market index, returned 21.97%, and the S&P Global Clean Energy Transition Index (net), which serves as the style-specific index, returned 32.81%.
Individual stock selection and sector allocation both contributed to returns relative to the S&P Global Clean Energy Transition Index (net) (“Index”), which serves as the Fund’s style-specific index, for the 12-month period. By sector, utilities contributed the most to relative performance. Within utilities, overweight positions in Brazilian utilities, specific out-of-benchmark holdings, and the avoidance of certain emerging markets stocks were the largest contributors. Stock selection in the information technology sector also contributed to relative performance, as the Fund owned an out-of-benchmark holding in a power semiconductor market leader. Stock selection in the energy sector detracted from relative performance. In terms of regional attribution, the allocation to the U.S. detracted from relative performance during the period. This resulted primarily from being underweight a fuel cell manufacturer that represented a significant position size in the Index.

Utilities
Positive
Stock selection was negative, as the Fund was underweight Bloom Energy, which significantly outperformed. In addition, the out-of-benchmark holding Constellation Energy underperformed the Index.

For the period April 14, 2026 (commencement of operations) to July 31, 2026, the Fund at NAV returned 7.03%. For the same period, the Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index, a broad-based securities market index, returned 7.67%, and the FTSE Nareit Equity REITs Index, which serves as the style-specific index, returned 7.96%.
The Fund utilizes an actively managed, bottom-up fundamental research approach to offer dedicated exposure to equity real estate investment trusts (REITs) and real estate-focused fixed income with objectives of reduced volatility and higher yield as compared to category averages. Since the Fund’s inception, positive property sector allocation and selection contributed to outperformance relative to the FTSE NAREIT Equity REITs Index (“Index”), the Fund’s style-specific index. Stock selection within the healthcare property sector was the largest contributor to performance, followed by stock selection within the office sector. Stock selection within the specialty and self-storage sectors detracted the most from performance. The largest contributors to performance since inception were Highwoods, Healthpeak, Ryman Hospitality, Cousins Properties, and Apple Hospitality. The largest detractors from performance during the period were Ventas, Millrose Properties, Gaming and Leisure Properties, ProLogis, and a Simon 4.75% 2034 note. The following table outlines key factors that materially affected the Fund’s performance during the reporting period.

Millrose, a land bank REIT in the specialty sector, held in an overweight position, detracted from the Fund’s performance due to uncertainty surrounding its financing options relative to its external growth appetite.

Virtus KAR Mid-Cap ETF | $ |
For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2026, the Fund at NAV returned 1.80%. For the same period, the Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index, a broad-based securities market index, returned 19.69%, and the Russell Midcap® Index, which serves as the style-specific index, returned 18.68%.
The Fund utilizes an actively managed, bottom-up fundamental research approach to identify a select group of companies believed by the Fund’s portfolio managers to possess sustainable competitive advantages. As such, the performance of the Fund will be determined by market reactions, both positive and negative, to activity related to these companies. Underweights in communication services and consumer staples contributed to performance relative to the Russell Midcap® Index, which serves as the Fund’s style-specific index, for the 12 months ended July 31, 2026. Stock selection and an underweight in financials, and stock selection and an overweight in industrials, detracted from performance. The biggest contributors to relative performance for the 12-month period were Monolithic Power Systems, Ross Stores, AMETEK, Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies, and Old Dominion Freight Line. The biggest detractors from performance for the fiscal period were Broadridge Financial Solutions, Rollins, Pentair, Lennox International, and Verisk Analytics.
FACTOR
IMPACT
Monolithic Power Systems
Positive
Rollins saw weakness as organic growth in its Residential segment was been pressured due to a sluggish housing market, as well as competitive pressure from search engine innovations that impeded new lead volumes for the company’s Orkin Pest Control business.

Virtus Newfleet Securitized Income ETF | $ |
For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2026, the Fund at NAV returned 3.70%. For the same period, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, a broad-based securities market index, returned 2.71%, and the ICE BofA 1-3 Year A-BBB US Corporate Index, which serves as the style-specific index, returned 3.95%.
The Fund underperformed the ICE BofA 1-3 Year A-BBB U.S. Corporate Index, its style-specific index, over the 12-month period. Positive results were driven primarily by overweight allocations to commercial asset-backed securities (ABS), non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS), and esoteric ABS. A resilient economy, limited housing supply, and strong consumer, commercial, and residential loan performance supported credit fundamentals across the portfolio. The Fund was negatively impacted by exposure to Tricolor, a subprime auto issuer that filed for bankruptcy. The bankruptcy and related disruption to noteholder cash flows caused the security’s price to decline sharply.

Virtus Newfleet Short Duration Core Plus Bond ETF | $ |
For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2026, the Fund at NAV returned 3.57%. For the same period, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, a broad-based securities market index, returned 2.71%, and the ICE BofA 1-5 Year US Corporate & Government Index, which serves as the style-specific index, returned 3.05%.
Sector selection contributed to performance relative to the Fund’s style-specific benchmark, the ICE BofA 1-5 Year Corporate & Government Index, for the 12-month period. The Fund’s underweight to U.S. Treasuries was a key contributor to performance. Sector allocation within the non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) sector had a positive impact on performance during the period. The Fund’s allocation to asset-backed securities (ABS) contributed to performance, however, issue selection within the sector detracted. The Fund’s underweight to investment grade corporate bonds modestly detracted from performance.
FACTOR
IMPACT
U.S. Treasuries
Positive
The Fund’s underweight to investment grade corporate bonds modestly detracted from performance during the period, as favorable credit conditions and supportive market conditions drove strong returns across the sector.

Virtus Newfleet Short Duration High Yield Bond ETF | $ |
For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2026, the Fund at NAV returned 5.35%. For the same period, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, a broad-based securities market index, returned 2.71%, and the ICE BofA 1-3 Year BB US Cash Pay High Yield Index, a style-specific index, returned 5.06%.
Positive industry allocation to leisure, security selection within metals & mining, energy and media other, and security selection within the single-B rating tier contributed to the Fund's outperformance relative to the ICE BofA 1-3 Year BB US Cash Pay High Yield Index (“Index”), the Fund’s style-specific index. Issue selection within building products, media cable, and chemicals hurt relative performance. The biggest contributors to absolute performance for the 12-month period were bonds issued by Coronado Finance, Neptune Bidco, Millenium Escrow, Helix Energy, and Noble Finance. The biggest detractors from absolute performance were bonds issued by CSC Holdings, SGUS LLC, Ineos Quattro, Cornerstone Building, and Kronos Acquisition. The following table outlines key factors that materially affected the Fund's performance during the reporting period.
FACTOR
IMPACT
Rise in global oil and natural gas prices due to Middle East conflict
Negative
Elevated interest rates, higher material costs, and economic uncertainty led to slower new home construction by homebuilders. Building products firms that are suppliers to homebuilders consequently posted weak results, and bond prices moved lower.

Virtus Seix AAA Private Credit CLO ETF | $ |
For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2026, the Fund at NAV returned 5.07%. For the same period, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, a broad-based securities market index, returned 2.71%, and the J.P. Morgan CLOIE AAA Index, which serves as the style-specific index, returned 5.03%.
The Fund’s focus on investing in AAA-rated tranches of private credit collateralized loan obligations (CLOs) contributed to relative performance for the 12-month period. The Fund’s strategy was put to the test as market concerns about the potential disruption that artificial intelligence (AI) could have on the software industry also affected the insurance and financial industries. Fears about inflation and a weakening economy also impacted market expectations as the Middle East conflagration unfolded. However, the Fund demonstrated resilience during the volatility as its focus on high quality CLO tranches, as well as security selection within those tranches, helped to mitigate the downside.

Virtus Seix Senior Loan ETF | $ |
For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2026, the Fund at NAV returned 5.29%. For the same period, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, a broad-based securities market index, returned 2.71%, and the S&P UBS Leveraged Loan Index, which serves as the style-specific index, returned 4.27%.
For the 12-month period, performance relative to the S&P UBS Leveraged Loan Index (“Index”), which serves as the Fund’s style-specific benchmark, was positively affected by both industry allocation and security selection in information technology, automotive, and chemicals. This was partially offset by industry allocation and/or security selection in telecommunications, health care, and services. Security selection and higher-quality holdings positioning were the Fund’s keys to performance for the 12 months as the market experienced pressure from both the potential impact of artificial intelligence (AI), with software experiencing the greatest negative impact, and the Middle East conflict, which created energy and chemical supply disruptions. Lower-quality issues were negatively impacted as strong corporate balance sheets and business fundamentals were rewarded. The top individual contributors to performance for the reporting period were Emergent Biosolutions, Oravel Stays Private, and the decision not to own First Brands. The biggest detractors were Soliant Lower Intermediate, Altice International, and Perforce Software.

Footnote(a) |
For the period December 22, 2025 (commencement of operations) to July 31, 2026, the Fund at NAV returned -0.59%. For the same period, the Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index, a broad-based securities market index, returned 9.72%, and the Russell 1000® Growth Index, which serves as the style-specific index, returned -0.35%.
For the reporting period, the majority of the Fund’s investment performance, both positive and negative, was driven by stock selection. The Fund slightly lost value during this time period while also slightly underperforming the Russell 1000® Growth Index (“Index”), primarily due to stock selection with the technology sector. The Fund’s technology stocks lost an average of approximately -5.28%, while the Index’s technology stocks gained 0.99% for the period. Additionally, within the Index, technology stocks primarily focused on the semiconductor memory industry had an especially positive return for the period. For the same period, the software stocks within the Index lagged dramatically, with some even losing value, as fears spread that artificial intelligence (AI) could displace software’s competitive advantage in certain industries in the future. Fair Isaac, Autodesk, and AppLovin detracted from performance during the period. GE Vernova contributed to performance during the period. The following table outlines key factors that materially affected the Fund’s performance during the reporting period.

Negative
AppLovin engages in the development and operation of a mobile marketing platform. The company underperformed due to fears about slowing growth and uncertainty about the prospects for e-commerce advertising.

For the same period, the Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index, a broad-based securities market index, returned 6.09%, and the Russell 2500™ Growth Index, which serves as the style-specific index, returned 1.79%.
During the period, the Fund demonstrated positive stock selection relative to the Russell 2500 Growth® Index (“Index”), primarily within the industrials sector, while experiencing negative relative performance from sector selection. Sector allocation within the health care sector hampered relative results. The health care sector for the Index gained 12.04% during the period, while the Fund was underexposed to health care stocks relative to the Index, and the Fund’s health care stocks only rose by 6.03% during the reporting period. Lindblad Expeditions Holdings and Sterling Infrastructure contributed to performance during the period. Fabrinet and Celestica detracted from performance during the period.

Virtus Stone Harbor Emerging Markets High Yield Bond ETF | $ |
For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2026, the Fund at NAV returned 12.78%. For the same period, the Bloomberg Emerging Markets USD Aggregate Bond Index, a broad-based securities market index, returned 5.65%, and the J.P. Morgan Hard Currency Credit 50-50 High Yield Index, which serves as the style-specific index, returned 11.36%.
The Fund’s allocations to hard currency sovereign debt contributed to the bulk of its outperformance relative to the J.P. Morgan Hard Currency Credit 50-50 High Yield Index, which serves as the Fund’s style-specific benchmark, for the 12-month period. Hard currency debt is generally denominated in currencies issued by developed countries, is globally traded, and is viewed as politically and economically stable. An overweight exposure and security selection in Venezuela were the largest contributors to performance. An underweight exposure to Bahrain also considerably boosted performance. Offsetting the performance was the Fund’s overweight exposure to Brazilian corporate debt, as well as an overweight exposure and security selection in Senegal.
FACTOR
IMPACT
Venezuela
Positive
The Fund maintained an overweight position in Senegal during the fiscal year due to its constructive view of the country's medium-term fundamentals. However, performance was negatively impacted by greater-than-expected fallout from the debt audit, fiscal reporting revisions, and restructuring-related concerns, which weighed on investor confidence and caused spreads to widen more than anticipated.

Virtus Terranova U.S. Quality Momentum ETF | $ |
For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2026, the Fund at NAV returned 11.49%. For the same period, the S&P 500® Index, a broad-based securities market index, returned 19.56%, and the Terranova U.S. Quality Momentum Index, which serves as the style-specific index, returned 11.92%.
Sector and style exposure contributed positively to returns relative to the S&P 500® Index (“Index”), the Fund’s broad-based securities market index, for the 12-month period. Exposures in the industrials and information technology sectors contributed the most to relative performance. However, the Fund’s equally weighted approach, which is designed to reduce concentration risk, limited its ability to benefit fully from gains in the information technology and communication services sectors during the period. Sector allocations and specific stock index weightings contributed positively to overall Fund performance, and tracking error to the Index was minimal. The Fund benefited from its overweight positioning to momentum and value factors during the period. Underweight positions in large-cap technology stocks including Micron Technology and Nvidia, which were an outgrowth of the Fund’s equal weighting, detracted from relative performance. In addition, communications stocks including Alphabet experienced gains due to strong earnings growth, but detracted from Fund performance due to their underweights relative to the Index.
FACTOR
IMPACT
Industrials / Information technology
Positive
The Fund’s quarterly momentum-driven adjustments led it to hold companies with smaller market capitalizations. This positioning excluded larger-cap technology names, which detracted somewhat from performance during the reporting period as larger-cap names performed well.

Footnote(a) |
For the period December 2, 2025 (commencement of operations) to July 31, 2026, the Fund at NAV returned 20.88%. For the same period, the Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index, a broad-based securities market index, returned 10.80%, and the Russell 3000® Index, which serves as the style-specific index, returned 10.71%.
From the Fund’s inception on December 2, 2025, through July 31, 2026, the Fund outperformed the Russell 3000 Index (“Index”). Stock selection in information technology, industrials, and health care contributed the most to the Fund’s performance relative to the Index. Stock selection in energy, materials, and consumer staples detracted the most from the Fund’s performance. The biggest individual contributors to performance during the reporting period were Micron, SanDisk, Lam Research, Comfort Systems, and Vertiv Holdings. The biggest detractors from performance during the same period were AMD, Texas Instruments, Amazon, ServiceNow, and Intel. The following table outlines key factors that materially affected the Fund’s performance during the reporting period.

Consumer sectors lagged the rest of the market as inflation and spending worries weighed on many American consumer brands, and the Fund's holdings in the sector trailed those of the Index.

Some of the Fund’s investments that were categorized as Level 3 were valued utilizing third party pricing information without adjustment. Such valuations are based on unobservable inputs. A significant change in third party information could result in a significantly lower or higher value of Level 3 investments.
Management has determined that the amount of Level 3 securities compared to total net assets is not material; therefore, the rollforward of Level 3 securities and assumptions are not shown for the year ended July 31, 2026.

(1) Swap contracts are valued at the net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the instrument by level and counterparty.
Some of the Fund’s investments that were categorized as Level 3 were valued utilizing third party pricing information without adjustment. Such valuations are based on unobservable inputs. A significant change in third party information could result in a significantly lower or higher value of Level 3 investments.
Management has determined that the amount of Level 3 securities compared to total net assets is not material; therefore, the rollforward of Level 3 securities and assumptions are not shown for the year ended July 31, 2026.

(1)Includes internally fair valued securities currently priced at zero ($0).
Some of the Fund’s investments that were categorized as Level 3 were valued utilizing third party pricing information without adjustment. If applicable, such valuations are based on unobservable inputs. A significant change in third party information could result in a significantly lower or higher value of Level 3 investments.
Management has determined that the amount of Level 3 securities compared to total net assets is not material; therefore, the rollforward of Level 3 securities and assumptions are not shown for the year ended July 31, 2026.

3.SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Each Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 Financial Services — Investment Companies. Each Fund prepares its financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and follows the significant accounting policies described below.
(a)Use of Estimates
Management makes certain 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 reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(b)Indemnification
In the normal course of business, the Funds may enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations which provide general indemnifications for certain liabilities. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expect the risk of loss to be remote.
(c)Security Valuation
A description of the valuation techniques applied to the Funds’ major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis is as follows:
Equity securities and exchange traded funds are valued at the official closing price (typically last sale) on the exchange on which the securities are primarily traded. Securities regularly traded in an over-the-counter market are valued at the latest quoted sale price in such market or in the case of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), at the NYSE Official Closing Price. Such valuations are typically categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. The Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board”) has designated Virtus Investment Advisers, LLC (“VIA”) with respect to each Fund (other than the Virtus AlphaSimplex Global Macro ETF and Virtus AlphaSimplex Managed Futures ETF) and Virtus Alternative Investment Advisers, LLC (“VAIA”) with respect to the Virtus AlphaSimplex Global Macro ETF and Virtus AlphaSimplex Managed Futures ETF (VIA and VAIA, each an “Adviser”) to serve as its valuation designee, pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, to perform the fair value determinations relating to any of the Funds’ investments. References to the “Adviser” shall mean VIA or VAIA, as the case may be, with respect to the applicable Fund. Accordingly, if market quotations are not readily available, or if it is determined that a quotation of a security does not represent fair value, then the security is valued by the Adviser at fair value as determined in good faith using procedures approved by the Board. Such valuations are typically categorized as Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
Debt securities, including restricted securities, are valued based on evaluated quotations received from independent pricing services or from dealers who make markets in such securities. For most bond types, the pricing service utilizes matrix pricing that considers one or more of the following factors: yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, current cash flows, type, and current day trade information, as well as dealer-supplied prices. Pricing services generally value fixed income securities assuming orderly transactions of an institutional round lot size, but a fund may hold or transact in such securities in smaller, odd lot sizes. Odd lots may trade at lower prices than institutional round lots. Such valuations are typically categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Debt securities that are not widely traded, are illiquid, or are internally fair valued using procedures adopted by the Board are generally categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
84
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
July 31, 2026
Listed derivatives, such as futures, that are actively traded are valued at the last posted settlement price from the exchange where they are principally traded and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.
Over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivative contracts, which include swaps, are valued based on model prices provided by independent pricing services or from dealer quotes. Depending on the derivative type and the specific terms of the transaction, these models vary and include observable inputs inactively quoted markets including but not limited to: underlying reference entity details, indices, spreads, interest rates, yield curves, dividend and exchange rates. These instruments are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Centrally cleared swaps listed or traded on a bilateral or trade facility platform, such as a registered exchange, are valued at the last posted settlement price determined by the respective exchange. These securities are generally categorized as Level 2 within the hierarchy.
Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued based on their net asset value each business day and are typically categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.
(d)Fair Value Measurement
Accounting Standards Codification, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP, and requires disclosure about fair value measurements. It also provides guidance on determining when there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability, when a transaction is not orderly, and how that information must be incorporated into fair value measurement. Under ASC 820, various inputs are used in determining the value of the Funds’ investments. The Adviser, on behalf of the Fund, utilizes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. These inputs are summarized in the following hierarchy:
•Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access.
•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 Funds’ 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.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The hierarchy classification of inputs used to value each Fund’s investments at July 31, 2026, is disclosed at the end of each Fund’s Schedule of Investments or Consolidated Schedule of Investments.
(e)Security Transactions and Investment Income
Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on sales of investment securities are calculated using specific identification. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date. Expenses and interest income are recognized on the accrual basis. Amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities are included in interest income. Each Fund amortizes premiums and accretes discounts using the effective interest method. Premiums on callable debt securities are amortized to interest income to the earliest call date using the effective interest method.
(f)Expenses
Each Fund pays all of its expenses not assumed by its Sub-Adviser, if any, as defined in Note 3, or the Adviser. General Trust expenses that are allocated among and charged to the assets of the Funds are done so on a basis that the Board deems fair and equitable, which may be on a basis of relative net assets of each Fund or the nature of the services performed and relative applicability to each Fund.
(g)Distributions to Shareholders
Distributions are recorded by the Funds on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from GAAP in the United States of America.
(h)When-issued Purchases and Forward Commitments (Delayed Delivery)
The Funds may engage in when-issued or forward commitment transactions. Securities purchased on a when-issued or forward commitment basis are also known as delayed delivery transactions. Delayed delivery transactions involve a commitment by a Fund to purchase or sell a security at a future date, ordinarily up to 90 days later. When-issued or forward commitments enable a Fund to lock in what is believed to be an attractive price or yield on a particular security for a period of time, regardless of future changes in interest rates. The Funds record when-issued and delayed delivery securities on the trade date. The Funds maintain collateral for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis begin earning interest on the settlement date.
85
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
July 31, 2026
(i)Loan Agreements
The Funds may invest in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owed by a corporate, governmental, or other borrower to lenders or lending syndicates. Loan agreements are generally non-investment grade and often involve borrowers that are highly leveraged. The Funds may invest in obligations of borrowers who are in bankruptcy proceedings. Loan agreements are typically senior in the corporate capital structure of the borrower. A loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution (the “lender”) that acts as agent for all holders. The lender administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. A Fund’s investment in loans may be in the form of participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties. When investing in loan participations, a Fund has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the loan participation and only upon receipt by the lender of payments from the borrower. A Fund generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the borrower. As a result, a Fund may be subject to the credit risk of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the loan agreement. When a Fund purchases assignments from lenders, it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the loan.
A Fund may invest in multiple series or tranches of a loan, which may have varying terms and carry different associated risks. Loan agreements may involve foreign borrowers, and investments may be denominated in foreign currencies. Direct indebtedness of emerging countries involves a risk that the government entities responsible for the repayment of the debt may be unable, or unwilling, to pay the principal and interest when due.
The loan agreements have floating rate loan interests which generally pay interest at rates that are periodically determined by reference to a base lending rate plus a premium. The base lending rates are generally SOFR (Secured Overnight Financing Rate), the prime rate offered by one or more U.S. banks or the certificate of deposit rate. When a loan agreement is purchased, a Fund may pay an assignment fee. On an ongoing basis, a Fund may receive a commitment fee based on the undrawn portion of the underlying line of credit portion of a loan agreement. Prepayment penalty fees are received upon the prepayment of a loan agreement by a borrower. Prepayment penalty, facility, commitment, consent and amendment fees are recorded to income as earned or paid.
(j)Private Credit CLOs
CLOs are generally privately-issued securities, and are normally purchased pursuant to Rule 144A or Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Privately-issued securities typically may be resold only to qualified institutional buyers, in a privately negotiated transaction, to a limited number of purchasers, or in limited quantities after they have been held for a specified period of time and other conditions are met for an exemption from registration. Because there may be relatively few potential purchasers for such securities, especially under adverse market or economic conditions or in the event of adverse changes in the financial condition of the issuer, a Fund may find it more difficult to sell such securities when it may be advisable to do so or it may be able to sell such securities only at prices lower than if such securities were more widely held and traded. At times, it also may be more difficult to determine the fair value of such securities for purposes of computing the Fund’s net asset value per share (“NAV”) due to the absence of an active trading market. There can be no assurance that a privately-issued security previously deemed to be liquid when purchased will continue to be liquid for as long as it is held by the Fund, and its value may decline as a result. The risks of investing in CLOs include both the economic risks of the underlying loans, which are rated below investment grade (i.e., junk bonds), combined with the risks associated with the CLO structure governing the priority of payments. The degree of such risk will generally correspond to the specific tranche in which a Fund is invested.
There are certain risks inherent in investing in CLOs that provide exposure to private credit, in particular the risks of their underlying investments, which include liquidity risk, industry risk, foreign security risk, currency risk, valuation risk and credit risk. Private credit securities also carry risks associated with unclear ownership.
(k)Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Back Securities
Certain Funds may invest in mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities, which collectively are securities backed by mortgages, installment contracts, credit card receivables or other financial assets. Asset-backed securities represent interests in “pools” of assets in which payments of both interest and principal on the securities are made periodically, thus in effect “passing through” such payments made by the individual borrowers on the assets that underlie the securities, net of any fees paid to the issuer or guarantor of the securities. The average life of asset-backed securities varies with the maturities of the underlying instruments, and the average life of a mortgage-backed instrument, in particular, is likely to be less than the original maturity of the mortgage pools underlying the securities as a result of mortgage prepayments, where applicable. For this and other reasons, an asset-backed security’s stated maturity may be different, and the security’s total return may be difficult to predict precisely.
Mortgage-related securities are issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies and instrumentalities, or issued by non-government entities, such as commercial banks and other private lenders. Mortgage-related securities represent ownership in “pools” of mortgage loans assembled for sale to investors by various government agencies, such as the Government National Mortgage Association
86
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
July 31, 2026
(“GNMA”), and government-related organizations, such as the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”), as well as by non-government issuers such as commercial banks, savings and loan institutions, mortgage bankers and private mortgage insurance companies.
Prepayments of principal of mortgage-related securities by mortgagors or mortgage foreclosures affect the average life of the mortgage-related securities in the Fund’s portfolio. Mortgage prepayments are affected by the level of interest rates and other factors, including general economic conditions and the underlying location and age of the mortgage. In periods of rising interest rates, the prepayment rate tends to decrease, lengthening the average life of a pool of mortgage-related securities. The longer the remaining maturity of a security the greater the effect of interest rate changes will be. Changes in the ability of an issuer to make payments of interest and principal and in the market’s perception of its creditworthiness also affect the market value of that issuer’s debt securities.
4.Derivative Financial Instruments and Transactions
Disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities are intended to enable investors to understand how and why the Virtus AlphaSimplex Global Macro ETF, Virtus AlphaSimplex Managed Futures ETF and Virtus New Fleet Short Duration Core Plus Bond ETF use derivatives, how derivatives are accounted for, and how derivative instruments affect each Fund’s results of operations and financial position. Summarized below are such disclosures and accounting policies for each specific type of derivative instrument used by each Fund.
Futures Contracts
A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to purchase (long) or sell (short) a security at a set price for delivery on a future date. Upon entering into a futures contract, each Fund is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash and/or securities equal to the “initial margin” requirements of the futures exchange on which the contract is traded. Pursuant to the contract, each Fund agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as variation margin and are recorded by each Fund for financial statement purposes on a daily basis as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. When the contract expires or is closed, gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed is realized. This is presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as “Net realized gain (loss) on futures.”
During the year ended July 31, 2026, each Fund utilized futures to optimize performance by gaining exposure to broad markets or to hedge the risk of securities within the portfolio. The potential risks of doing so are that 1) the use of futures may result in larger losses or smaller gains than the use of more traditional investments, 2) the prices of futures and the price movements of the securities that the future is intended to simulate may not correlate well, 3) the Fund’s success in using futures will be dependent upon the sub adviser’s ability to correctly predict such price movements, 4) liquidity of futures can be adversely affected by market factors, and the prices of such securities may move in unexpected ways, and 5) if each Fund cannot close out a futures position, it may be compelled to continue to make daily cash payments to the broker to meet margin requirements, thus increasing transaction costs. Futures contracts outstanding at period end are listed after each Fund’s Consolidated Schedule of Investments. Cash deposited as margin is recorded on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as “Cash pledged as collateral for futures contracts, if any.

(1)An indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Virtus.
(2)Net advisory fee: The advisory fee paid by the Fund to the Adviser for investment advisory services under the Adviser’s investment advisory agreement with the Fund, after deducting the payment of all of the ordinary operating expenses of the Fund under the Adviser’s unified fee arrangement. In the event that the Adviser waives all or a portion of its fee pursuant to an applicable waiver agreement, then the Sub-Adviser will waive its fee in the same proportion as the Adviser.
(3)Net advisory fee: The advisory fee paid by the Fund to the Adviser for investment advisory services under the Adviser’s investment advisory agreement with the Fund, after accounting for any applicable fee waiver and/or expense limitation agreement, which will not include reimbursement of the Adviser for any expenses or recapture of prior waivers. In the event the Adviser waives its entire fee and also assumes expenses of the Fund pursuant to an applicable expense limitation agreement, the Sub-Adviser will similarly waive its entire fee and will share in the expense assumption by promptly paying to the Adviser (or its designee) 50% of the assumed amount. If during the term of the Sub-Advisory Agreement the Adviser later recaptures some or all of fees waived or expenses reimbursed by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser together, then the Adviser will pay to the Sub-Adviser 50% of the amount recaptured.
Principal Underwriter
Pursuant to the terms of a Distribution Agreement with the Trust, VP Distributors, LLC (the “Distributor”) serves as the Funds’ principal underwriter. The Distributor receives compensation from the Adviser for the statutory underwriting services it provides to the Funds. The Distributor will not distribute shares in less than Creation Units (as hereinafter defined), and does not maintain a secondary market in shares. The shares are traded in the secondary market. The Distributor is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Virtus.

6.CREATION AND REDEMPTION TRANSACTIONS
The Funds issue and redeem shares on a continuous basis at net asset value in aggregate blocks of shares or multiples thereof called “Creation Units.” The Funds’ Creation Units may be issued and redeemed generally for cash or an in-kind deposit of securities held by the Funds. In each instance of cash creations or redemptions, the Trust may impose transaction fees based on transaction expenses related to the particular exchange that will be higher than the transaction fees associated with in-kind purchases or redemptions. Only “Authorized Participants” who have entered into contractual arrangements with the Distributor may purchase or redeem shares directly from the Funds. 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 the Distributor. Most retail investors will not qualify as Authorized Participants or have the resources to buy and sell whole Creation Units. Therefore, they will be unable to purchase or redeem the shares directly from the Funds. Rather, most retail investors will purchase shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker and will be subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees.
Authorized participants pay a fixed transaction fee of $500 to the shareholder servicing agent when purchasing and redeeming Creation Units of each Fund other than the Virtus Emerging Markets Dividend ETF and the Virtus International Dividend ETF. For the Virtus Emerging Markets Dividend ETF and the Virtus International Dividend ETF, the authorized participants pay a fixed transaction fee of $2,250 and $750, respectively. The transaction fee is used to defray the costs associated with the issuance and redemption of Creation Units. In addition to the fixed transaction fee, the Funds may charge an additional variable fee to the extent a Fund permits or requires Authorized Participants to purchase Creation Units for cash, or otherwise substitute cash for any Deposit Security. Such cash-in-lieu fees are payable to a Fund and are charged to defray the transaction costs incurred by a Fund when buying Deposit Securities, and also to cover spreads and slippage costs and protect existing shareholders. Variable fees received by a Fund, if any, is disclosed in the shareholder transaction section of the Statement of Changes in Net Assets.
7.FEDERAL INCOME TAX
Each Fund intends to qualify as a “regulated investment company” under Sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), as amended. Each Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net capital gains to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. Virtus AlphaSimplex Global Macro ETF and Virtus AlphaSimplex Managed Futures ETF’s investment in each Subsidiary is classified as a controlled foreign corporation under the Code. Therefore, each Fund is required to increase its taxable income by its share of the respective Subsidiary’s income. Net investment losses of each Subsidiary cannot be deducted by its respectively Fund in the current period nor carried forward to offset taxable income in future periods. Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes as issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements, and requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing a Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Interest and penalties related to income taxes would be recorded as income tax expense. Management of the Funds is required to analyze all open tax years (2024, 2025 and 2026), as defined by IRS statute of limitations, for all major jurisdictions, including federal tax authorities and certain state tax authorities. As of July 31, 2026, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits or uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. The Funds have no examination in progress and are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. Certain Funds may be subject to foreign taxes on income and gains on investments, a portion of which may be recoverable. Each Fund will accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable based upon current interpretations of the tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which it invests.
The Funds recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits and penalties as income tax expense. For the year ended July 31, 2026, the Funds had no accrued penalties or interest.
At July 31, 2026, the adjusted cost basis of investments and gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments for federal income tax purposes were as follows:

8.Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
On December 14, 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”), No. 2023-09 -- Income Taxes (Codification Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which aimed to improve transparency of tax information for investors and enhance income tax disclosures. The update requires the Funds to provide a breakdown of total income tax paid, net of refunds, by jurisdiction if the amount exceeds materiality. For the year ended July 31, 2026, the income tax paid were not material therefore no disclosure or jurisdictional breakdown is required.

10.BORROWINGS
($ reported in thousands)
Effective July 2, 2026, the Funds (other than the Virtus SEIX Senior Loan ETF (“SEIX”)) were added as parties to a $250,000 unsecured line of credit agreement dated September 18, 2017, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”), among certain affiliated funds and a commercial bank. During the reporting period, the Credit Agreement was renewed with $35,000 of the total line of credit of $250,000 being allocated to one other affiliated fund and $215,000 being available to the Funds and certain other affiliated funds. Unless renewed, the Credit Agreement will terminate on July 1, 2027. The Credit Agreement allows the Funds to borrow cash from the bank to manage large, unexpected redemptions and trade fails, up to a limit of one-third or one-fifth, as applicable, of each Fund’s total net assets in accordance with the terms of the agreement. Each Fund, that is a party to the Credit Agreement is individually, and not jointly, liable for its borrowings, if any. The lending bank could require repayment of outstanding borrowings upon certain circumstances such as an event of default.
SEIX and one other affiliated fund entered into a $125,000 unsecured syndicated line of credit agreement dated March 15, 2018, as amended, (“SEIX Credit Agreement”), with two commercial banks. On March 8, 2024, the unsecured line of credit was renewed as a bilateral credit agreement with one of the commercial banks and the credit amount was reduced to $100,000. The SEIX Credit Agreement allows the SEIX to borrow cash from the bank to manage large, unexpected redemptions and trade fails, up to a limit of one-fifth its total net assets. Each Fund, that is a party to the SEIX Credit Agreement, is individually, and not jointly, liable for its borrowings, if any. The lending bank could require repayment of outstanding borrowings upon certain circumstances such as an event of default. Unless renewed, the SEIX Credit Agreement will terminate on March 5, 2027.
Under both Credit Agreements interest is charged at the higher of a SOFR or the Federal Funds Rate plus an additional percentage rate on the amount borrowed. Commitment fees are charged on the undrawn balance.
The Funds had no borrowings at any time during the year ended July 31, 2026.
11.INVESTMENT RISKS
As with any investment, an investment in a Fund could result in a loss or the performance of a Fund could be inferior to that of other investments. An investor should consider a Fund’s investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses carefully before investing. Each Fund’s prospectus and statement of additional information contain this and other important information. Local, regional or global events such as war or military conflict, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issue, recessions, or other events could have a significant impact on a Fund and its investments, including hampering the ability of each Fund’s portfolio manager(s) to invest each Fund’s assets as intended.
Emerging Markets Risk
Emerging market countries typically have economic and political systems that are less fully developed, and can be expected to be less stable than those of more developed countries. For example, the economies of such countries can be subject to rapid and unpredictable rates of inflation or deflation.
Since these markets are often small, they may be more likely to suffer sharp and frequent price changes or long-term price depression because of adverse publicity, investor perceptions or the actions of a few large investors. They may also have policies that restrict investment by foreigners, or that prevent foreign investors from withdrawing their money at will.
Certain emerging markets may also face other significant internal or external risks, including the risk of war and civil unrest. Each of these factors can affect the value and liquidity of the assets of a Fund. Failure to generate adequate earnings from foreign trade would make it difficult for an emerging market country to service foreign debt. Disruptions resulting from social and political factors may cause the securities markets of emerging market countries to close. If this were to occur, the liquidity and value of a Fund’s assets invested in corporate debt obligations of emerging market companies would decline.
The imposition of sanctions, exchange controls (including repatriation restrictions), confiscation of assets and property, trade restrictions (including tariffs) and other government restrictions by the U.S. or other governments, or from problems in registration, settlement or custody, may also result in losses. The type and severity of sanctions and other similar measures, including counter sanctions and other retaliatory actions, that may be imposed could vary broadly in scope, and their impact is impossible to predict. For example, the imposition of sanctions and other similar measures could, among other things, cause a decline in the value and/or liquidity of securities
96
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
July 31, 2026
issued by the sanctioned country or companies located in or economically tied to the sanctioned country and increase market volatility and disruption in the sanctioned country and throughout the world. Sanctions and other similar measures could limit or prevent a Fund from buying and selling securities (in the sanctioned country and other markets), significantly delay or prevent the settlement of securities transactions, and significantly impact a Fund’s liquidity and performance.
Sanctions threatened or imposed may result in a decline in the value and liquidity of a Fund’s assets. The securities of a Fund may be deemed to have a zero value. A Fund may make investments that are illiquid or that may become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perceptions. Illiquid investments may be more difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that a Fund will not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period or without significant dilution to remaining investors’ interests because of unusual market conditions, an unusually high volume of redemption requests, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests, a Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions. If a Fund is forced to sell securities at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, such sales may adversely affect a Fund’s NAV and dilute remaining investors’ interests. Liquidity risk may be the result of, among other things, the reduced number and capacity of traditional market participants to make a market in fixed income securities or the lack of an active market. The potential for liquidity risk may be magnified by a rising interest rate environment or other circumstances where investor redemptions from fixed income funds may be higher than normal, potentially causing increased supply in the market due to selling activity. These risks may be more pronounced in connection with a Fund’s investments in securities of issuers located in emerging market countries. Redemptions by large shareholders may have a negative impact on a Fund’s liquidity.
For all these reasons, investments in emerging markets may be considered speculative. To the extent that a Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in a particular emerging market, the Fund will be more vulnerable to financial, economic, political and other developments in that country, and conditions that negatively impact that country will have a greater impact on the Fund as compared with a fund that does not have its holdings concentrated in a particular country.
Rule 144A Securities Risk.
Rule 144A securities are considered restricted securities because they are not registered for sale to the general public and may only be resold to certain qualified institutional buyers. The market for Rule 144A securities typically is less active than the market for publicly traded securities. As such, investing in Rule 144A securities may reduce the liquidity of a Fund’s investments, and the Fund may be unable to sell the security at the desired time or price, if at all. The purchase price and subsequent valuation of Rule 144A securities normally reflect a discount (which may be significant) from the market price of comparable unrestricted securities for which a liquid trading market exists. A restricted security that was liquid at the time of purchase may subsequently become illiquid and its value may decline as a result. In addition, transaction costs may be higher for restricted securities than for more liquid securities. The Fund may also have to bear the expense of registering the securities for resale and the risk of substantial delays in effecting the registration.
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 may be more strongly affected by changes in the economic climate, broad market shifts, moves in a particular dominant stock or regulatory changes.
12.CREDIT RISK
Junk Bonds or High Yield Securities: High yield securities are generally subject to greater levels of credit quality risk than investment grade securities. 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. These risks can reduce the value of a Fund’s shares and the income it earns.

14.SEGMENT REPORTING
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 280, Segment Reporting, established disclosure requirements relating to operating segments in financial statements. The Funds have adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”), which is intended to enhance reportable operating segment disclosure requirements. Operating segments are defined as components of a reporting entity about which separate financial information, including disclosures about income and expenses, is available that is regularly evaluated by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and assess its performance. The Trust is organized as a series of Funds, each of which is structured as an investment company and represents a single operating segment. Subject to the oversight and, when applicable, approval of the Trust’s Board of Trustees, management of each Fund’s Adviser acts as the respective Fund’s CODM. The CODM monitors the Fund’s operating results as a whole, and the Fund’s long-term strategic asset allocation is determined in accordance with the terms of its prospectus based on its defined investment objective. The financial information provided to and reviewed by the CODM is consistent with that presented in the Fund’s financial statements. Adoption of the new standard impacted the Funds financial statement note disclosures only and did not affect any Fund’s financial position or the results of its operations.
15.SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

FORM N-CSR ITEM 11 - Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Investment Advisory Contract
During executive session, the Independent Trustees of Virtus ETF Trust II (the “Trust”) considered the following factors in connection with their approval of the advisory and sub-advisory agreements.
June
4, 2025 Consideration of Approval of Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements for:
Virtus Emerging Markets Dividend ETF (“VEM”)
(the “Fund”)
On June 4, 2025, at a meeting (the “Meeting”) at which all of the Trustees were present and could hear and be heard, including all of the Trustees who were not “interested persons” (as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940) of the Trust (the “Independent Trustees”), the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of the Trust, including the Independent Trustees voting separately, reviewed and unanimously approved an investment advisory agreement between Virtus Investment Advisers, LLC the “Adviser”) and the Trust (the “Advisory Agreement”) on behalf of the Fund; and an investment sub-advisory agreement among Virtus Advisers, LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”), operating through its Virtus Systematic division, the Adviser and the Trust (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement”) on behalf of the Funds. The Advisory Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreement are collectively referred to as “Investment Management Agreements.”
At the Meeting, the Board received and reviewed information provided by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser in response to requests of the Board and its counsel, which contained information necessary for the Board to form a judgment as to whether the approval of the Investment Management Agreements would be in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.
Advisory Agreement
In deciding on whether to approve the Advisory Agreement, the Board considered numerous factors, including:
The nature, extent, and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser. The Board considered the responsibilities the Adviser would have under the Advisory Agreement, and the services that would be provided by the Adviser to the Fund, including, without limitation, the management, oversight, and administrative services that the Adviser and its employees will provide to the Fund, the services related
101
Other Information (unaudited) (continued)
to organizing each Fund, the Adviser’s coordination of services for the Fund by the Trust’s service providers, its compliance procedures and practices, and its efforts to promote the Fund. The Board noted that many of the Trust’s executive officers are employees of the Adviser and will serve the Trust without additional compensation from the Fund. The Board also considered the information provided by the Adviser, including descriptions of the Adviser’s investment advisory services and its related non-advisory business. The Board concluded that the quality, extent, and nature of the services proposed to be provided by the Adviser would be satisfactory and adequate for the Fund.
Investment performance of the Fund and the Adviser. The Board evaluated the investment management experience of the Adviser, in light of the services it will be providing. In conducting its review, the Board considered the fact that the Fund had not commenced operations and therefore had no investment performance to consider. Therefore, the Board received information from the Adviser regarding, among other things, the Adviser’s experience in organizing, managing and overseeing exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) and other investment vehicles and coordinating their operation and administration. After consideration of these factors, the Board determined that the Adviser possessed adequate capabilities and experience for the management of the Fund.
The costs of the services to be provided and profits to be realized by the Adviser from its relationship with the Fund. The Board examined and evaluated the proposed arrangements between the Adviser and the Fund under the Advisory Agreement. The Board considered that the Advisory Agreement provided for a “unified fee” structure pursuant to which the Fund’s ordinary operating expenses (subject to customary exclusions) would be paid from the Adviser’s management fee. The Board noted that, under the unified fee arrangement, the Adviser would likely supplement a portion of the cost of operating the Fund for some period of time and considered the benefits that would accrue to the Fund.
The Board also considered the financial condition of the Adviser and the level of commitment to the Fund by the Adviser, including the Adviser’s payment of startup costs for the Fund; potential benefits to the Adviser in managing the Fund, including promotion of the Adviser’s name; and the interests of the Adviser in providing management and oversight services to the Fund. In addition, at the Meeting, the Board compared the proposed management fee and anticipated net expense ratio of the Fund to the management fees and net expense ratios of other funds considered by the Adviser to have similar investment objectives and strategies to the Fund (the “Peer Group”). The Board considered those Funds against both the ETFs in the Peer Group as well as against a sub-group comprised of only the actively managed ETFs in the Peer Group (the “Active Peer Group”). Accordingly, with respect to VEM, the Board considered that the proposed management fee was below the average management fee of the Peer Group and Active Peer Group, and that VEM’s estimated net expense ratio was equal to the average of the Peer Group and below the average of the Active Peer Group.
Following these comparisons and upon further consideration and discussion of the foregoing, the Board concluded that the fees proposed to be paid to the Adviser would be appropriate and representative of arm’s-length negotiations.
The extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows and whether management fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of the Fund’s investors. The Board considered the fees proposed to be paid to the Adviser. The Board also considered that the Fund would likely experience benefits from the proposed unified fee arrangement and would continue to do so even after the Adviser reaches firm-wide profitability. Accordingly, the Board concluded that the Fund’s proposed fee arrangement would provide benefits through the unified fee structure, and that, at the Fund’s projected asset levels, the Fund’s proposed arrangement with the Adviser would be appropriate.
Other benefits to be derived by the Adviser from its relationship with the Fund. The Board considered material “fall-out” or ancillary benefits that would accrue to the Adviser as a result of its relationship with the Fund (other than the advisory fee). The Board noted that affiliates of the Adviser will serve as principal underwriter and operational administrator for the Fund, and that the association could result in non-quantifiable reputational benefits for those entities. Based on the foregoing information, the Board concluded that such potential benefits are immaterial to its consideration and approval of the Advisory Agreement.
Conclusion. The Board did not identify any single factor as being of paramount importance, and different Trustees may have given different weight to different factors. The Board reviewed with counsel to the Independent Trustees the legal standards applicable to its consideration of the Advisory Agreement. Based on its review, including consideration of each of the factors referenced above, the Board determined, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, that the Advisory Agreement were fair and reasonable in light of the services to be performed, expenses to be 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 Advisory Agreement on behalf of the Fund.
102
Other Information (unaudited) (continued)
Sub-Advisory Agreement
In deciding on whether to approve the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Board considered numerous factors, including:
The nature, extent, and quality of the services to be provided by the Sub-Adviser. The Board considered the responsibilities the Sub-Adviser would have under the Sub-Advisory Agreement and the services that would be provided by the Sub-Adviser, including, without limitation, the investment advisory services, the Sub-Adviser’s compliance procedures and practices, and their efforts to promote the Fund. The Board also considered the quality of the services that the Sub-Adviser provides to other funds, including, as applicable, other series of the Trust. After reviewing the foregoing information and further information in the materials, the Board concluded that the quality, extent, and nature of the services proposed to be provided by the Sub-Adviser would be satisfactory and adequate for the Fund.
The investment management capabilities and experience of the Sub-Adviser. The Board evaluated the investment management experience of the Sub-Adviser. In particular, the Board considered the Sub-Adviser’s experience and the experience of the Sub-Adviser’s portfolio managers. The Board discussed with the Sub-Adviser the investment objective and strategies for the Fund and the Sub-Adviser’s plans for implementing those strategies. After consideration of these factors, the Board determined that the Sub-Adviser would be an appropriate sub-adviser to the Fund.
The costs of the services to be provided and profits to be realized by the Sub-Adviser from its relationship with the Fund. The Board examined and evaluated the proposed arrangements between the Sub-Adviser and the Adviser under the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Board considered the fact that there would be a “unified fee” structure pursuant to which the Fund’s ordinary operating expenses (subject to customary exclusions) would be paid from the Adviser’s management fee. The Board considered the extent to which the Sub-Adviser would bear a portion of the Fund’s expenses. The Board noted that, under the unified fee arrangement, the Sub-Adviser would likely supplement a portion of the cost of operating the Fund for some period of time and considered the benefits that would accrue to the Fund.
The Board considered the Sub-Adviser’s staffing, personnel, and methods of operating; the Sub-Adviser’s compliance policies and procedures; the financial condition of the Sub-Adviser and the level of commitment to the Fund by the Sub-Adviser; the projected asset levels of the Fund; and the overall projected expenses of the Fund. The Board also considered potential benefits to the Sub-Adviser in sub-advising the Fund, including promotion of the name of the Sub-Adviser.
The Board compared the proposed fees and anticipated expenses of the Fund (including the sub-advisory fee) to other funds considered by the Adviser to have investment objectives and strategies similar to the Fund, as noted above. The Board also considered the proposed fees of the Fund as they relate to other ETFs and mutual funds sponsored by the Sub-Adviser. The Board also noted that the Sub-Adviser was an affiliate of the Adviser. Following these comparisons and upon further consideration and discussion of the foregoing, the Board concluded that the fees proposed to be paid to the Sub-Adviser (pursuant to the Sub-Advisory Agreement) would be appropriate and representative of arm’s-length negotiations.
The extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows and whether sub-advisory fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of the Fund’s investors. The Board considered the fees proposed to be paid to the Sub-Adviser. The Board considered that the Fund would likely experience benefits from the proposed unified fee arrangement, particularly where the Sub-Adviser is contributing to the Fund’s expenses in excess of its sub-advisory fee. The Board considered that the Fund would likely continue to experience such benefits even after the Fund’s assets grow to a level where the Sub-Adviser is no longer required to contribute to the Fund’s expenses in excess of the amount received by the Sub-Adviser under the Sub-Advisory Agreement. Accordingly, the Board concluded that the Fund’s proposed fee arrangement would provide benefits through the unified fee structure, and that, at the Fund’s projected asset levels, the Fund’s proposed arrangement with the Sub-Adviser would be appropriate.
Other benefits to be derived by the Sub-Adviser from its relationship with the Fund. The Board considered material “fall-out” or ancillary benefits that would accrue to the Sub-Adviser as a result of its relationship with the Fund (other than the sub-advisory fees). For example, the Board noted that the Sub-Adviser may obtain reputational benefits from the success of the Fund or other Virtus ETFs. Based on their review and other considerations, the Board concluded that such potential benefits are immaterial to its consideration and approval of the Sub-Advisory Agreement.
Conclusion. The Board did not identify any single factor as being of paramount importance, and different Trustees may have given different weight to different factors. The Board reviewed with counsel to the Independent Trustees the legal standards applicable to its consideration of the Sub-Advisory Agreement. Based on its review, including consideration of each of the factors referenced above, the Board determined, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, that the sub-advisory arrangement, as outlined in the Sub-Advisory Agreement, were fair and reasonable in light of the services to be performed, expenses to be 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 Sub-Advisory Agreement with the Sub-Adviser on behalf of the Fund.

Other Information (unaudited) (continued)
During executive session, the Independent Trustees of Virtus ETF Trust II (the “Trust”) considered the following factors in connection with their approval of the advisory and sub-advisory agreements.
November
19, 2025 Consideration of Approval of Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements for
Virtus Duff & Phelps Real Estate Income ETF (“DPRE”)
Virtus
Silvant Small/Mid Growth ETF (“SSMG”)
(each a “Fund,” and collectively, the “Funds”)
On November 19, 2025, at a meeting (the “Meeting”) at which all of the Trustees were present and could hear and be heard, including all of the Trustees who were not “interested persons” (as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940) of the Trust (the “Independent Trustees”), the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of the Trust, including the Independent Trustees voting separately, reviewed and unanimously approved an investment advisory agreement between Virtus Investment Advisers, LLC (the “Adviser”) and the Trust (the “Advisory Agreement”) on behalf of each Fund; an investment sub-advisory agreement among Duff & Phelps Investment Management Co. (the “Duff Sub-Adviser”), the Adviser and the Trust (the “Duff Sub-Advisory Agreement”) on behalf of DPRE; and an investment sub-advisory agreement among Silvant Capital Management LLC (the “Silvant Sub-Adviser”), the Adviser and the Trust (the “Silvant Sub-Advisory Agreement”) on behalf of SSMG. The Duff Sub-Adviser and the Silvant Sub-Adviser are collectively referred to herein as the “Sub-Advisers.” The Duff Sub-Advisory Agreement and the Silvant Sub-Advisory Agreement are collectively referred to herein as the “Sub-Advisory Agreements.” The Advisory Agreements and the Sub-Advisory Agreements are collectively referred to herein as the “Investment Management Agreements.”
At the Meeting, the Board received and reviewed information provided by the Adviser and the Sub-Advisers in response to requests of the Board and its counsel, including a memorandum from the Adviser that included a description of the Adviser’s business, a copy of the Adviser’s Form ADV, and certain other information about the Adviser to be considered in connection with the Trustees’ review process (the “Adviser Memorandum”), and a memorandum from each Sub-Adviser that included a description of the Sub-Adviser’s business, a copy of each Sub-Adviser’s Form ADV and certain other information about each Sub-Adviser to be considered in connection with the Trustees’ review process (each, a “Sub-Adviser Memorandum”). The Adviser Memorandum and each Sub-Adviser Memorandum contained information necessary for the Board to form a judgment as to whether the approval of the Investment Management Agreements would be in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders.
Advisory Agreement
In deciding on whether to approve the Advisory Agreement with the Adviser on behalf of each Fund, the Board considered numerous factors, including:
The nature, extent, and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser. The Board considered the responsibilities the Adviser would have under the Advisory Agreement, and the services that would be provided by the Adviser to each Fund, including, without limitation, the management, oversight, and administrative services that the Adviser and its employees will provide to each Fund, the services already provided by the Adviser related to organizing each Fund, the Adviser’s coordination of services for each Fund by the Trust’s service providers, its compliance procedures and practices, and its efforts to promote each Fund. The Board noted that many of the Trust’s executive officers are employees of the Adviser and will serve the Trust without additional compensation from each Fund. The Board also considered the information in the Adviser Memorandum, including descriptions of the Adviser’s investment advisory services and its related non-advisory business. The Board concluded that the quality, extent, and nature of the services proposed to be provided by the Adviser would be satisfactory and adequate for each Fund.
Investment performance of the Funds and the Adviser. The Board evaluated the investment management experience of the Adviser, in light of the services it will be providing. In conducting its review, the Board considered the fact that the Funds had not yet commenced operations and therefore had no investment performance to consider. Therefore, the Board received information from the Adviser regarding, among other things, the Adviser’s experience in organizing, managing and overseeing exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) and other investment vehicles and coordinating their operation and administration. After consideration of these factors, the Board determined that the Adviser possessed adequate capabilities and experience for the management of the Funds.
The costs of the services to be provided and profits to be realized by the Adviser from its relationship with each Fund. The Board examined and evaluated the proposed arrangements between the Adviser and each Fund under the Advisory Agreement. The Board considered that the Advisory Agreement provided for a “unified fee” structure pursuant to which the Funds’ ordinary operating expenses (subject to customary exclusions) would be paid from the Adviser’s management fee. The Board noted that, under those arrangements, the Adviser would likely supplement a portion of the cost of operating the Funds for some period of time and considered the benefits that would accrue to each Fund. The Board also considered the financial condition of the Adviser and the level of commitment to each

Fund by the Adviser, including the Adviser’s payment of startup costs for each Fund; potential benefits to the Adviser in managing each Fund, including promotion of the Adviser’s name; and the interests of the Adviser in providing management and oversight services to each Fund.
The Board compared the proposed management fee and anticipated net expense ratio of each Fund to the management fees and net expense ratios of other funds considered by the Adviser to have similar investment objectives and strategies to each Fund (the “Peer Group”). Specifically, the Board noted that the proposed management fee and estimated net expense ratio for the Silvant ETF were below the median and average management fees and net expense ratios of its Peer Group.
For DPRE, the Board noted that the proposed management fee and estimated net expense ratio were above the median and average management fees and net expense ratios of the Fund’s Peer Group but below the median and average management fees and net expense ratios of the actively managed ETFs within the Peer Group. The Board also noted that the Adviser did not consider any ETF within the Peer Group to be a direct peer of the Fund because the Fund would be the only ETF in its Peer Group to offer exposure to both real estate investment trust equity and debt.
Following these comparisons and upon further consideration and discussion of the foregoing, the Board concluded that the fees proposed to be paid to the Adviser would be appropriate and representative of arm’s-length negotiations.
The extent to which economies of scale would be realized as each Fund grows and whether management fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of a Fund’s investors. The Board considered the fees proposed to be paid to the Adviser. The Board also considered that each Fund would likely experience benefits from the proposed unified fee arrangement. Accordingly, the Board concluded that each Fund’s proposed fee arrangement would provide benefits through the unified fee structure, and that, at each Fund’s projected asset levels, each Fund’s proposed arrangement with the Adviser would be appropriate.
Other benefits to be derived by the Adviser from its relationship with each Fund. The Board considered material “fall-out” or ancillary benefits that would accrue to the Adviser as a result of its relationship with each Fund (other than the advisory fee). The Board noted that affiliates of the Adviser will serve as principal underwriter and operational administrator for each Fund, and that the association could result in non-quantifiable reputational benefits for those entities. Based on the foregoing information, the Board concluded that such potential benefits are immaterial to its consideration and approval of the Advisory Agreement.
Conclusion. The Board did not identify any single factor as being of paramount importance, and different Trustees may have given different weight to different factors. The Board reviewed with counsel to the Independent Trustees the legal standards applicable to its consideration of the Advisory Agreement. Based on its review, including consideration of each of the factors referenced above, the Board determined, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, that the Advisory Agreement was fair and reasonable in light of the services to be performed, expenses to be 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 Advisory Agreement on behalf of each Fund.
Sub-Advisory Agreements
In deciding on whether to approve the Sub-Advisory Agreements with the Sub-Advisers on behalf of each Fund, the Board considered numerous factors, including:
The nature, extent, and quality of the services to be provided by the Sub-Advisers. The Board considered the responsibilities the Sub-Advisers would have under each Sub-Advisory Agreement and the services that would be provided by the Sub-Advisers, including, without limitation, the investment advisory services, the Sub-Advisers’ compliance procedures and practices, and their efforts to promote their respective Funds. The Board also considered the quality of the services that each Sub-Adviser provides to other funds, including certain Virtus mutual funds and/or other series of the Trust. After reviewing the foregoing information and further information in the materials, including each Sub-Adviser Memorandum (which included descriptions of the Sub-Adviser’s business), the Board concluded that the quality, extent, and nature of the services proposed to be provided by the Sub-Advisers would be satisfactory and adequate for their respective Funds.
The investment management capabilities and experience of the Sub-Advisers. The Board evaluated the investment management experience of each Sub-Adviser. In particular, the Board considered each Sub-Adviser’s experience and the experience of each Sub-Adviser’s portfolio managers. The Board discussed with the Sub-Advisers the investment objective and strategies for each Fund and the Sub-Adviser’s plans for implementing those strategies. After consideration of these factors, the Board determined that each Sub-Adviser would be an appropriate sub-adviser to its respective Funds.
105
Other Information (unaudited) (continued)
The costs of the services to be provided and profits to be realized by each Sub-Adviser from its relationship with the respective Funds. The Board examined and evaluated the proposed arrangement between each Sub-Adviser and the Adviser under the corresponding Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Board considered the fact that there would be a “unified fee” structure pursuant to which each Fund’s ordinary operating expenses (subject to customary exclusions) would be paid from the Adviser’s management fee. The Board considered the extent to which each Sub-Adviser would bear a portion of its respective Funds’ expenses. The Board noted that, under those arrangements, each Sub-Adviser would likely supplement a portion of the cost of operating its respective Funds for some period of time and considered the benefits that would accrue to the Funds.
The Board considered the Sub-Advisers’ staffing, personnel, and methods of operating; the Sub-Advisers’ compliance policies and procedures; the financial condition of the Sub-Advisers and the level of commitment to each Fund by the Sub-Advisers; the projected asset levels of each Fund; and the overall projected expenses of each Fund. The Board also considered potential benefits to each Sub-Adviser in sub-advising the respective Funds, including promotion of the names of the Sub-Advisers.
The Board compared the proposed fees and anticipated expenses of each Fund (including the sub-advisory fee) to other funds considered by the Adviser to have investment objectives and strategies similar to the respective Fund. The Board also considered the proposed fees of each Fund as they relate to other mutual funds and/or ETFs sponsored by the Sub-Advisers. The Board also noted that each Sub-Adviser was an affiliate of the Adviser. Following these comparisons and upon further consideration and discussion of the foregoing, the Board concluded that the fees proposed to be paid to each Sub-Adviser (pursuant to the corresponding Sub-Advisory Agreement) would be appropriate and representative of arm’s-length negotiations.
The extent to which economies of scale would be realized as each Fund grows and whether sub-advisory fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of a Fund’s investors. The Board considered the fees proposed to be paid to each Sub-Adviser. The Board considered that each Fund would likely experience benefits from the proposed unified fee arrangement, particularly where the Sub-Adviser is contributing to Fund expenses in excess of its sub-advisory fee. The Board considered that each Fund would likely continue to experience such benefits even after the Fund’s assets grow to a level where the respective Sub-Adviser is no longer required to contribute to the Fund’s expenses in excess of the amount received by the Sub-Adviser under the Sub-Advisory Agreement. Accordingly, the Board concluded that each Fund’s proposed fee arrangement would provide benefits through the unified fee structure, and that, at each Fund’s projected asset levels, each Fund’s proposed arrangement with the respective Sub-Adviser would be appropriate.
Other benefits to be derived by each Sub-Adviser from its relationship with the respective Fund. The Board considered material “fall-out” or ancillary benefits that would accrue to each Sub-Adviser as a result of its relationship with the respective Funds (other than the sub-advisory fees). For example, the Board noted that the Sub-Advisers may obtain reputational benefits from the success of the Funds or other Virtus ETFs. Based on their review and other considerations, the Board concluded that such potential benefits are immaterial to its consideration and approval of the Sub-Advisory Agreements.
Conclusion. The Board did not identify any single factor as being of paramount importance, and different Trustees may have given different weight to different factors. The Board reviewed with counsel to the Independent Trustees the legal standards applicable to its consideration of the Sub-Advisory Agreements. Based on its review, including consideration of each of the factors referenced above, the Board determined, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, that the sub-advisory arrangements, as outlined in the Sub-Advisory Agreements, were fair and reasonable in light of the services to be performed, expenses to be 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 Sub-Advisory Agreements with the Sub-Advisers on behalf of the Funds.
