VSCG Investment Objective and Strategy

Virtus U.S. Small Cap Growth ETF describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Virtus ETF Trust II.

Investment objective

The Virtus U.S. Small Cap Growth ETF (the Fund ) seeks long-term capital appreciation.

Principal investment strategy

Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in the common stocks of small capitalization companies with growth characteristics that are listed on U.S. exchanges. Virtus Systematic (Systematic), a division of Virtus Advisers, LLC, the Funds sub-adviser, defines small capitalization companies to be companies whose market capitalizations are smaller than the largest 1,000 U.S. companies included in the Russell 2000 Growth Index. A smaller capitalization stock will be considered to have growth characteristics if it is included in the Russell 2000 Growth Index or has a market capitalization in the range of the Russell 2000 Growth Index and demonstrates revenue or earnings growth higher than the Russell 2000 Index. Under Systematics market capitalization guidelines described above, based on market capitalization data as of September 30, 2025, the market capitalization of a small capitalization company would be below $8 billion .

This threshold will change due to market conditions. Systematic believes that behavioral biases of investors contribute to market inefficiencies, creating opportunities. Systematics quantitative investment process begins with a proprietary alpha model that uses artificial intelligence to power Natural Language Processing for sentiment analysis, which blends behavioral factors (e.g ., human behaviors and biases) and intrinsic valuation factors ( e.g ., tangible measures of a companys underlying worth). The final investment and trading decisions are made by Systematics portfolio management personnel. In order to arrive at the final investment portfolio selection, Systematics portfolio management personnel complement the recommendations produced by the alpha model with a dynamic risk management overlay and qualitative reviews.

Specifically, Systematic utilizes a risk model for portfolio construction, with constraints at the individual security and industry levels to manage exposures relative to the Funds benchmark. Additionally, all investment recommendations are thoroughly vetted at the individual company level to confirm the investment rationale and suitability before a purchase or sale. In addition to common stocks, equity securities in which the Fund may invest include, without limitation, preferred stocks, American depositary receipts (ADRs), convertible securities and warrants. The Fund is an actively managed ETF and, thus, does not seek to replicate the performance of a specified index of securities. Instead, it uses an active investment strategy that seeks to meet its investment objective. In addition, from time to time the Fund may focus its investments (i.e., invest more than 15% of its total assets) in one or more particular sectors.

As of the date of this Prospectus, the Fund focused its investments in the Industrials, Healthcare, and Information Technology sectors.
