The GraniteShares YieldBoost TSLA ETF (TSYY) Yielded an Annualized Distribution of Approximately 35% Generating a 7.9% Total Return. TSYY Went Ex-Dividend on January 24, 2025

Since its inception on December 17, 2024, and until the ex-date, TSYY generated a positive total return. During the same period Tesla (TSLA) was down 14.1%.
New York, New York - February 4, 2025 - YieldBOOST [https://graniteshares.com/institutional/us/en-us/] is an innovative strategy that aims to combine high income potential by selling options on leveraged ETFs which generally command a higher premium than options on stocks, while focusing on NAV preservation by writing options which have a lower chance of being exercised ("out of the money" options). GraniteShares [https://graniteshares.com/institutional/us/en-us/] believes that this holistic approach is an improvement over existing option income strategies mainly known as "covered call" strategies.

The fact that TSYY was able to generate a positive total return over the same period the TSLA stock price was significantly down, illustrates the robustness of the YieldBOOST approach developed by GraniteShares.

The main problem with covered call strategies is that they prioritize income or yield over total return. With a covered call, the options seller typically sells "at the money" which enables the seller to generate the maximum amount of premium at the point of sale. An option is considered at-the-money when the strike price is very close to the current market price of the underlying asset.

This approach encompasses the problem that the option has a much higher chance of being exercised if the value of the underlying asset goes up, hence capping the upside. If the underlying asset falls in value, the strategy is fully exposed to the downside. The main design flaw with covered call strategies can be a nice yield but poor total return and therefore a poor investment long term.

TSYY is the first ETF in GraniteShares' YieldBOOST lineup, and additional YieldBOOST products are expected to come to market over the coming months. The fund's primary investment objective is to seek current income. The fund's secondary investment objective is to seek exposure to the performance of one or more exchange-traded funds whose shares trade on a U.S.-regulated securities exchange and that seek daily leverage investment results of 2 times (200%) the daily percentage of the common stock of Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) (the "Underlying Stock") subject to a limit on potential investment gains.
