ProShares Trust Expects Zero Capital Gain Distributions for Its ETFs

ProShares, a premier provider of alternative ETFs, announced today that it expects that none of its 128 equity and fixed income ETFs will pay any 2014 capital gain distributions.

"Tax efficiency is important to ETF shareholders," said Michael L. Sapir, Co-Founder and CEO of ProShare Advisors LLC. "We are pleased that our management of ProShares ETFs contributed to no capital gains being distributed to our shareholders."

Capital gain distribution estimates are subject to change. The distribution dates for fourth quarter income dividends are available at ProShares.com. Capital gain distribution and income dividend amounts will vary from year to year. For specific tax advice, ProShares recommends that investors seek advice from a qualified professional.

Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. ProShares ETFs are generally non-diversified and each entails certain risks, which may include risk associated with the use of derivatives (swap agreements, futures contracts and similar instruments), imperfect benchmark correlation, leverage and market price variance. Short positions lose value as security prices increase. Leverage can increase market exposure and magnify investment risk. These risks can increase volatility and decrease performance. Please see their summary and full prospectuses for a more complete description of risks. There is no guarantee any ProShares ETF will achieve its investment objective.
