What this ETF is trying to do

The FLEXSHARES ESG & CLIMATE DEVELOPED MARKETS EX-US CORE INDEX FUND (ticker: FEDM) is an exchange-traded fund (ETF). It focuses on companies in developed markets outside of the United States. The fund also follows ESG and climate-related themes. This means it looks at environmental, social, and governance factors when selecting companies.

What the numbers show

When looking at an ETF, it is important to know the difference between "price return" and "total return." Price return only tracks how much the share price has changed. Total return includes both the price change and any cash distributions (dividends) paid out to investors.

Based on the data provided:

• Year-to-Date (YTD): The price return is approximately 7.81%, while the total return is approximately 10.12%.

• One Year: The price return was approximately 9.25%, and the total return was approximately 12.61%.

• Three Years: The price return was approximately 49.70%, and the total return was approximately 63.19%.

An estimated price from roughly one year ago was $58.30. The current price is $63.70.

Income and distribution explanation

This ETF pays out cash to investors, which is called a distribution. The distribution yield is approximately 2.92%. This number describes the cash payments relative to the ETF's price. These distributions usually happen quarterly, with four payouts recorded in the last 12 months. While these payments provide cash income, they are not the same as total return.

Top Holdings

The following is a partial list of the fund's largest holdings. Please note that holdings can change over time:

• ASML HOLDING NV (3.63%)

• ROYAL BANK OF CANADA (2.04%)

• SIEMENS AG (1.68%)

• NOVARTIS AG REGISTERED SHARES (1.60%)

• ASTRAZENECA PLC (1.53%)

• SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC SE (1.51%)

• BANCO BILBAO VIZCAYA ARGENTARIA SA (1.42%)

• SHELL PLC (1.39%)

• ADVANTEST CORP (1.36%)

• COMMONWEALTH BANK OF AUSTRALIA (1.33%)

NAV erosion explanation

"NAV erosion" refers to a decline in the Net Asset Value (the actual value of the assets held by the fund). Some investors worry about this because they want their original investment to stay stable. For FEDM, the erosion-risk score is 100, and the label indicates "No price erosion detected." There is no severe erosion-risk flag for this ETF.

Pros

• The fund has shown positive price returns and total returns over the one-year and three-year periods.

• It provides a distribution yield for investors seeking cash income.

Cons

• The list of holdings provided is only a partial list, meaning there are many other companies in the fund not shown here.

Beginner takeaway

When studying FEDM, remember that total return is the most complete way to see how the fund performed because it includes both price changes and cash distributions. Also, while a distribution yield provides income, it is separate from the growth of the share price itself.
