iShares Core S&P U.S. Growth ETF (NASDAQ:IUSG) selects growth companies from a large and mid-cap US universe through the S&P 900 Growth Index. The stated growth measures include Earnings and Revenue characteristics. This makes the parent universe broader by company size than a growth strategy restricted to the S&P 500 alone.

Investment approach and market coverage

iShares Core S&P U.S. Growth ETF (NASDAQ:IUSG) uses an index-tracking mandate. The stated benchmark is S&P 900 Growth Index. The benchmark defines the eligible Investment universe, and its membership and weights shape the portfolio. An index objective does not mean the fund and benchmark will match exactly. Expenses, transactions, cash balances and implementation decisions can create differences. The scope of the mandate matters when comparing this exposure with an existing portfolio, because funds with similar names may cover different securities or market segments.

Holdings and underlying exposure

In the official holdings file dated 3 November 2026, selected leading stock positions were Nvidia at 13.64%; Microsoft at 10.55%; Apple at 6.60%; Alphabet Class A at 4.48%; Broadcom Inc at 4.31%. These figures are security-level portfolio weights; separate securities from the same issuer may appear in other rows. Holdings and weights can change.

Aggregating the reported Equity rows by the issuer file’s sector labels gives Information Technology at approximately 50.69%, Communication at approximately 13.06%, Financials at approximately 9.57%. These are calculated sums of rounded security weights, rather than a separate issuer-published allocation table. Cash, Derivatives and other asset classes are excluded from these sector sums. The composition helps explain which economic exposures accompany the stated mandate.

Fees distributions and share pricing

iShares Core S&P U.S. Growth ETF (NASDAQ:IUSG) has a listed gross annual expense ratio of 0.04% and net annual expense ratio of 0.04%. At the net rate, USD 10,000 held at a constant value for a full year would imply approximately USD 4.00 in annual fund expenses. This is an illustrative fee calculation, excluding changes in value, brokerage costs and bid-ask spreads. Expenses are reflected within the product rather than quoted as a promised investment outcome.

The stated distribution frequency is quarterly. The schedule describes how often distributions are expected, while payment amounts depend on income and other applicable fund circumstances. A distribution is distinct from Capital appreciation and does not establish a fixed future payment. Shareholders also need to consider their own tax treatment, including any treatment of distributions or gains on sale.

iShares reported net asset value of USD 183.79 per share as at 3 November 2026. NAV measures the underlying net asset value allocated to a share; it is not an exchange closing-price quotation. Shares trade on NASDAQ, where the transaction price can differ from NAV and where the bid-ask spread adds to the cost of entering or exiting a position.

Earnings expectations and valuation sensitivity

Growth-oriented shares can be particularly sensitive to changes in expected future earnings. When a valuation assumes substantial expansion, disappointing sales or a change in financing costs can affect the price even if the company remains profitable. A growth benchmark can develop industry concentrations because companies with similar growth characteristics often operate in related sectors. The style label does not guarantee that earnings or share prices will increase.

Key Insights

iShares Core S&P U.S. Growth ETF (NASDAQ:IUSG) is defined by its benchmark and eligible investment universe. Its holdings explain the actual exposure, while the fee schedule and distribution arrangements explain important ownership mechanics. These features need to be considered together: broad coverage, a particular style or a specified Maturity band each changes the risks a Shareholder takes. The investment objective remains a target, and the value of the shares can decline.
