TFAEX Investment Objective and Strategy

Tactical Growth Allocation Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Collaborative Investment Series Trust.

Investment objective

The Tactical Growth Allocation Fund will seek to provide capital appreciation.

Principal investment strategy

The Fund seeks to provide capital appreciation. The Funds adviser, Tactical Fund Advisors, LLC (the Adviser), delegates the day-to-day management of the Funds assets to multiple sub-advisers. The Adviser is responsible for the overall management of the Fund, overseeing the Funds sub-advisers and for determining the amount of the Funds assets that each sub-adviser will manage for the Fund. While the Adviser expects that each sub-adviser will manage a portion of the Funds assets at all times, the percentages of the Funds assets managed by each sub-adviser may vary from time to time. The Fund may invest in domestic and foreign equities, equity-related securities such as options on equity indices or index ETFs, investment grade fixed income securities, ETFs that primarily invest in equities and/or investment grade fixed income securities and ETNs linked to the VIX (market volatility) index.

ETFs that the Fund may invest in include leveraged ETFs. The Fund may short shares of equity and fixed income ETFs. Foreign equity securities or ETFs that the Fund may invest in may also include issuers from emerging market countries. The Fund considers emerging market countries to be those found in the MSCI EAFE Index. The Fund considers investment grade securities to be those that are rated Baa3 or higher by Moodys Investors Service, Inc. or BBB- or higher by S&P at the time of purchase. The Funds sub-advisers invest the assets delegated to them by the Adviser as follows: Anchor Capital Management Group Inc. (Anchor Capital) Anchor Capital uses proprietary quantitative risk models to invest both long and/or short in domestic and foreign equity ETFs. Anchor Capital expects its allocation of the Funds assets to have equity exposure between -40% and 100%.

Exceed Advisory LLC (Exceed Advisory) Exceed Advisorys strategy is composed of an equity options component and a fixed income component. The options component uses call and put options on equity indices or broad-based equity ETFs in seeking to limit risk/return exposure to predetermined market levels. The fixed income component invests in investment grade fixed income securities for the purposes of generating income for the options strategy as well as collateral for the options. Tuttle Capital Management LLC (Tuttle) Tuttle uses a proprietary market trend model to invest in a portfolio of domestic and international and equity ETFs including leveraged and inverse ETFs. Depending on the sub-advisers model, its allocation may also be fully invested in ETFs that primarily invest in U.S. Treasury securities.

The portfolio can also use volatility ETNs for hedging purposes and leveraged ETFs to take advantage of opportunities the sub-adviser sees in the market. Synergy Financial Management, LLC (Synergy) Synergy invests its allocation of the Funds assets in a diversified portfolio of global equity investments that seeks to outperform the S&P 500 by investing primarily in U.S. and foreign equity securities and ETFs. Heritage Capital Advisors, LLC (Heritage) Heritage invests its allocation of the Funds assets in a diversified portfolio of global equity securities and short and intermediate term bonds. Heritage may also invest in exchange traded funds to provide global equity and bond exposure for the Fund. The Fund expects to have a high portfolio turnover which may result in higher transactional costs.
