About EA Series Trust WHITEWOLF Publicly Listed Private Equity ETF

LBO holds 25-40 US-listed private equity companies of any size. These entities are defined as leverage finance providers, buyout firms, sponsors, and asset managers. Specifically, these are BDCs, finance companies, direct lenders, leveraged buyouts, venture capital, special situations, growth investments, and private infrastructure. Notably, banks, real estate-focused companies, and REITs are excluded. The objective is to construct a portfolio of liquid assets, focusing on current income, low volatility, and capital growth. The selection process uses a value-oriented approach that combines qualitative and quantitative criteria, emphasizing liquidity, income, volatility, and value. Key factors such as credit performance, risk level, changes in earnings and dividends, and the impact of interest rate fluctuations are also assessed. Generally, the portfolio allocates 40-60% of assets to leverage finance providers and the remaining 40-60% to other categories. The fund is actively monitored, intending to rebalance and reconstitute at least quarterly.
