Utility Businesses Within a Defined Sector Index

IDU tracks the Russell 1000 Utilities RIC 22.5/45 Capped Index. The benchmark selects utility companies from a large- and mid-cap US Equity universe and applies issuer-weight constraints. The portfolio’s composition follows that sector definition and the index’s rules.

The fund uses representative sampling, selecting investments intended to resemble the benchmark’s overall characteristics. It may therefore hold a different collection of securities from the index while seeking a similar Investment profile.

Portfolio Composition and Exposure

IDU reported 46 holdings as of 30 October 2026. Its allocation by Market Value included Electric Utilities at 56.43%, Multi-Utilities at 22.52% and Environmental & Facilities Services at 10.35% as of 30 October 2026.

The fact sheet dated 30 September 2026 identified holdings including Nextera Energy at 10.80%, Southern at 6.52% and Duke Energy Corp at 6.07%. These position weights refer to that reporting date and can change as the portfolio and market values evolve.

The same fact sheet reported a P/E ratio of 20.33x and a P/B ratio of 2.31x. These valuation measures complement the holdings information with Earnings and book-value characteristics associated with the equity portfolio.

Fees and Distribution Policy

The published expense ratio is 0.37%. Distributions are scheduled quarterly.

The 30-day SEC Yield was 2.62% as of 30 September 2026. This standardised income measure reflects the fund’s recent income after expenses; it is separate from changes in the market value of its shares.

The prospectus notes that brokerage commissions and other intermediary charges may apply separately. Fund shares trade at market prices, which can differ from NAV, so the stated NAV does not establish the price of every exchange transaction.

Key Insights

Regulation, financing costs, Demand and operating expenses can affect utility businesses. Dividend payments can also change, leaving the fund exposed to both equity-market movements and conditions affecting its underlying companies.
