Commodities Market Outlook

Performance was mostly negative in 2023 for broad commodities, as only the precious metals sector (gold and silver) and the agricultural softs sector (sugar, coffee, cotton) finished in positive territory, returning 4.11% and 12.57%, respectively. In contrast, the energy sector returned -25.59% over the period, while agricultural grains, industrial metals, and livestock were also down -17.39%, -13.72% and -6.86%, respectively.

At the start of 2022 most individual commodities were already in short supply, Europe was in the midst of an energy crisis and Russia invaded Ukraine at a time when production bottlenecks and supply shortages were already creating additional price pressure on a number of commodities. By summer, many central banks around the world enacted aggressive policies to dampen inflation. The resulting commodity sell-off extended throughout the second half of the year, as fears of diminishing global economic growth spurned positive fundamentals and pushed investors to the sidelines. The commodity market entering 2023 was in conflict, with a weakening U.S. Dollar and most commodities still showing very tight supplies. Additionally, as China exited zero-COVID policies in surprise fashion, the country’s reopening was expected to have a significant impact on commodity demand. However, China never announced the large-scale stimulus that investors expected would jump start the economy. As China accounts for more than 50% of global commodity demand outside of energy, the disappointing economic recovery had a wide ranging impact on the commodity market in 2023. Europe was again spared from a more poignant energy crisis in 2023 as the weather was unusually mild in the winter of 2022 and again in the fall of 2023. This led to reduced natural gas demand across the region, which was exacerbated by lower levels of industrial activity. A decline in demand for crude products such as gasoil, gasoline and diesel also weighed on the energy sector, as OPEC+ took action to defend prices over the second half of the year. A normalization of weather patterns coming out of La Niña conditions lessened the severity of droughts in the U.S., allowing for good crop yields. At the same time, falling fertilizer prices and lower fuel prices lowered input costs, helping farmers increase the acres planted in anticipation of more disruptions from the Russia-Ukraine war. These factors contributed to the fall in agricultural grain prices, such as soybeans, corn and wheat. In contrast, unpredictable and extreme weather patterns in tropical growing regions constrained supply in coffee and sugar, leading to shortages and price increases that contributed to the rise in agricultural soft commodities in 2023. Industrial metals were directly impacted by the disappointing Chinese recovery, and a significant increase in Indonesian nickel supply contributed to an outsized price drop in 2023. The livestock sector also underperformed in 2023, as demand for pork declined after the COVID-related Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program ("SNAP") payment supplements ended. Precious metals had a volatile year, as the U.S. banking crisis, mixed economic data, additional interest rate hikes and the disappointing Chinese economic recovery drove prices up and down over the course of the year. However, anticipation of potential interest rate cuts in the U.S. and Chinese economic stimulus sparked a year-end rally in precious metals that saw the spot price of gold close the year at an all-time high.

The inverse relationship between the strength of the U.S. Dollar and the price of commodities has typically held well over time. That relationship isn’t necessarily constant as political, economic or supply-demand fundamentals may trump Dollar strength at times of stress.

As such, a strong U.S. Dollar typically makes commodities more expensive for non-Dollar consuming countries. A weaker Dollar generally allows consumers to purchase more commodities for the same amount of their local currency. It doesn’t even have to be a dramatic fall in the Dollar: a perceived significant weakness could be enough.

The commodity market entering 2024 appears to be characterized by strained global supply chains, extreme pessimism in the Chinese economy and appears to be largely ignoring the proliferation of geopolitical risks. There are risks to the U.S. economy which include the commercial real estate market and the delayed effect of an aggressive interest rate hiking cycle. However, recent U.S. economic data continues to surprise to the upside. With approximately two-thirds of democratic countries holding elections in 2024, it seems likely some of these elections will have meaningful effects on trading partnerships and potentially commodity prices. The visible exchange inventories for industrial metals have risen from 25-year lows at the beginning of 2023, but they are mostly closer to those

lows than to average levels. Based off of futures positioning data, investors appear to have very light positioning in their portfolios, and in many cases they are "net short". Even the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve has fallen by 300 million barrels in recent years although the U.S. government is making token purchases at this time. In some ways we believe that, inventories, investors and the U.S. oil stockpile may be better positioned for a recession than a soft landing. Therein lies a potential opportunity.

Market Environment during 2023

Commodity Market

For the period January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023, the Bloomberg Commodity Index Total Return (“BCOM TR Index”) fell -7.91% over the period and the Bloomberg Commodity Index (“BCOM”) fell -12.55% over the same period. The BCOM TR Index is composed of futures contracts on physical commodities and reflects the returns of a fully collateralized investment in the BCOM, which reflects commodity futures price movements. The BCOM TR Index combines the returns of BCOM with the returns on cash collateral invested in short-term investment grade fixed income securities that include U.S. government securities and money market instruments, as well as cash and other cash equivalents.

The energy sector was down -25.59% over the period and held a target weight of 29.95% in the BCOM Index. The energy sector was led lower by a drop in natural gas (-67.07%), but was also hurt by declines in nearly all crude products including West Texas Intermediate (-6.91%), brent (-5.91%), gas oil (-3.34%) and diesel (-7.79%). The only energy contract that finished 2023 with positive returns was gasoline (+2.20%). Natural gas is heavily winter-weather dependent and an unusually warm winter reduced natural gas demand across Europe, leading to relatively high inventory levels into the spring. Moreover, unusually mild temperatures in the fall and lower levels of industrial activity continued to weigh on natural gas demand. The disappointing Chinese economic recovery and the global economic trajectory served to depress crude products, with lingering uncertainties being cited by OPEC+ as a key factor behind their actions to defend barrel prices towards the end of the year. Looking ahead to 2024, oil historically has been an important signal of geopolitical risk, and the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict threatens to involve others in the oil-rich region. Additionally, OPEC+ could continue to extend and expand on voluntary production cuts in order to defend prices.

The agriculture sector (grains and softs) was down -9.25% over the period and held a target weight of 29.61% in the BCOM Index. The performance of the agriculture sector was largely driven by grains, which held a target weight of 22.64% in the BCOM Index. Agricultural grains were held back in large part by a drop in corn (-21.75%), wheat (-30.16%), Kansas wheat (-27.46%) and soybean oil (-21.09%). A normalization of weather patterns coming out of La Niña conditions lessened the severity of droughts in the U.S., allowing for good crop yields. Additionally, falling fertilizer prices and lower fuel prices reduced input costs, helping farmers increase the acres planted in anticipation of more disruptions from the Russia-Ukraine war. The performance of the agricultural grains sector was somewhat offset by the performance of agricultural softs, which held a target weight of 6.97% in the BCOM Index. Agricultural softs were boosted by returns in coffee (+13.39%) and sugar (+18.82%). Extreme weather in tropical growing regions constrained supply in these two commodities, leading to shortages and price increases. Agriculture has tended to be the most supply-elastic commodity sector, and the flip from La Niña to El Niño should moderate droughts in the US, helping grain production even if it puts weather in South America and West Africa at risk and potentially harms sugar and cocoa production. Continuing the 2023 trends into 2024 would see lower agricultural grain prices and higher agricultural soft prices.

The precious metals sector (gold and silver) was up +4.11% over the period and held a target weight of 19.44% in the BCOM Index. Similar to 2022, economic and geopolitical factors continued to drive volatility in the price of gold and silver over the course of the year. Gold returned +7.14% while silver ended the year down -5.29%. Despite the disappointing Chinese economic recovery and continued interest rate hikes, gold benefitted from central bank demand and central banks' desire to reduce U.S. Dollar holdings in foreign exchange. At the close of the year, both gold and silver benefited from speculation of potential interest rate cuts in the U.S. and Chinese economic stimulus. In 2024, gold demand from retail investors and central banks, for gold reserves, may remain high. At the same time silver could see an uptick in demand amid increased industrial metal usage.

The industrial metals sector was down -13.72% over the period and held a target weight of 15.94% in the BCOM Index. The performance within the sector was led lower by the performance of nickel (-47.21%), while zinc, aluminum and lead all fell -10.85%, -6.13% and -11.64%, respectively. Copper ended the year relatively flat, down -0.54%. The poor performance was a direct result of the disappointing Chinese economic recovery. Moreover, a significant increase in Indonesian nickel supply contributed to the outsized price drop. Outside of nickel, industrial metal inventories remain low, and low capital expenditures could continue to constrain future supply. We believe that commitments to renewable energy and nuclear power, stemming from the United Nations Climate Change Conference, would benefit industrial metals. Copper especially could benefit, as electricity grids expand capacity for an increasingly

abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Strategy K-1 Free ETF

Investment Objective

The abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Strategy K-1 Free ETF (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that closely correspond, before fees and expenses, to the performance of the Bloomberg Commodity Index Total Return (the "Index" or "BCOM TR Index").

Investment Strategies

The Fund uses a “passive” or representative sampling indexing approach to attempt to achieve its investment objective. The Fund does not try to outperform the Index and does not generally take temporary defensive positions. The Fund will invest in only a representative sample of the instruments in the Index, and the Fund may invest in or gain exposure to instruments not contained in the Index or in financial instruments, with the intent of tracking the Index. The Fund will also hold short-term fixed-income securities, which may be used as collateral for the Fund’s commodities futures holdings or to generate interest income and capital appreciation on the cash balances arising from its use of futures contracts (thereby providing a “total return” investment in the underlying commodities). In managing the assets of the Fund, abrdn ETFs Advisors LLC (the "Advisor") and Vident Advisory, LLC (the "Sub-Advisor") do not invest the assets of the Fund in instruments based on their view of the investment merit of a particular instrument nor does it conduct conventional investment research or analysis or forecast market movement or trends. The Fund seeks to remain fully invested at all times in financial instruments that, in combination, track the returns of the Index without regard to market conditions, trends or direction. The Fund will rebalance its portfolio when the Index rebalances. Additionally, if the Fund receives a creation unit in cash, the Fund repositions its portfolio in response to assets flowing into or out of the Fund.

Under normal market conditions, the Fund intends to achieve its investment objective by investing in exchange-traded commodity futures contracts through a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Subsidiary”). As a means to provide investment returns that are designed to track those of the Index, the Subsidiary may also invest directly in commodity-linked instruments, including pooled investment vehicles (such as exchange-traded funds and other investment companies), swaps and exchange-traded options on futures contracts, to the extent permitted under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) and any applicable exemptive relief (collectively, “Commodities-Related Assets” and, together with exchange-traded commodities futures contracts, “Commodities Instruments”). The Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in the Subsidiary. The Fund is called “K-1 Free” because it is designed to operate differently than commodity-based investments that distribute a “Schedule K-1” to shareholders. Schedule K-1 is a tax form containing information regarding a fund’s income and expenses, which shareholders may find complicates tax return preparation, thus requiring additional time, or the help of a professional tax adviser, at additional cost. By comparison, the Fund is designed to be taxed like a conventional mutual fund and shareholders will instead receive a Form 1099 from the broker-dealer or other financial intermediary through which they invest, from which income, gains, and losses can be entered onto the shareholder’s tax return.

The remainder of the Fund’s assets that are not invested in the Subsidiary (i.e., at least 75% of the Fund’s total assets) will principally be invested in: (1) short-term investment grade fixed-income securities that include U.S. government securities and money market instruments; and (2) cash and other cash equivalents. The Fund seeks to use such instruments to generate a total return on the cash balances arising from the use of futures contracts that, when combined with the Fund’s other investments, tracks the total return of the Index.

As noted previously, the Fund will not invest directly in commodity futures contracts but, instead, expects to gain exposure to these investments exclusively by investing in the Subsidiary. The Fund’s investment in the Subsidiary is intended to enable the Fund to gain exposure to relevant commodity markets within the limits of current federal income tax laws applicable to a regulated investment company (“RIC”) such as the Fund, which limit the ability of RICs to invest directly in commodity futures contracts. The Subsidiary and the Fund have the same investment objective. However, the Subsidiary may invest without limitation in the Commodities Instruments. Except as otherwise noted, references to the Fund’s investments include the Fund’s indirect investments through the Subsidiary.

The Advisor and Sub-Advisor will determine the percentage of the Fund’s assets allocated to the Commodities Instruments held by the Subsidiary that will be invested in exchange-traded commodity futures contracts or Commodities-Related Assets. The Fund does not seek leveraged returns. However, the Fund’s use of instruments to collateralize the Subsidiary’s investments in Commodity Instruments has a leveraging effect and is designed to provide a total return that tracks the return of the Index.

The BCOM TR Index reflects the return on a fully collateralized investment in the Bloomberg Commodity Index^SM (“BCOM”), which is composed of futures contracts on physical commodities and is designed to be a highly liquid and broad-based benchmark for

commodities futures investments. Futures contracts on commodities generally are agreements between two parties where one party agrees to buy, and the counterparty to sell, a set amount of a physical commodity (or, in some contracts, a cash equivalent) at a pre-determined future date and price. The value of commodity futures contracts is based upon the price movements of the underlying commodities.

The BCOM TR Index combines the returns of the BCOM with the returns on cash collateral invested in 3-month U.S. Treasury Bills. These returns are calculated by using the most recent weekly auction high rate for 13 week (3 Month) U.S. Treasury Bills, as reported on the website http://www.treasurydirect.gov/ published by the Bureau of the Public Debt of the U.S. Treasury, or any successor source, which is generally published once per week on Monday.

The BCOM is a widely followed commodity index which is calculated and published by Bloomberg Finance L.P. and its affiliates, including Bloomberg Index Services Limited, the administrator of the Index (collectively, “Bloomberg” or the “Index Provider”). The BCOM has been published since 1998 and tracks movements in the price of a rolling position in a basket of commodity futures with a new maturity between 1 and 3 months.

As stated in the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated May 1, 2023, the BCOM consists of 24 commodities futures contracts with respect to 22 commodities: aluminum, coffee, copper, corn, cotton, crude oil (West Texas Intermediate, or WTI, and Brent), gold, lead, lean hogs, live cattle, low sulfur gas oil, natural gas, nickel, RBOB (reformulated blendstock for oxygenate blending) gasoline, silver, soybean meal, soybean oil, soybeans, sugar, wheat (Chicago and KC hard red winter), ULS (ultra low sulfur) diesel and zinc. As of May 1, 2023, there are 25 commodity futures eligible for inclusion in the BCOM but 3 of those commodities (cocoa, platinum and tin) are currently not included in the BCOM. With the exception of certain metals contracts (aluminum, lead, tin, nickel and zinc) that trade on the London Metals Exchange (“LME”) and the contracts for Brent crude oil and low sulphur gas oil, each of the commodities is the subject of at least one futures contract that trades on a U.S. exchange. The BCOM uses a consistent, systematic process to represent the commodity markets. The weightings of the components of the BCOM are based on (1) liquidity data; (2) U.S. dollar-weighted production data; and (3) diversification rules that attempt to reduce disproportionate weightings of any single commodity or sector, which potentially reduces volatility in comparison with narrower commodity baskets. Liquidity data is the relative amount of trading activity for a particular commodity and U.S. dollar-weighted production data takes the figures for production in the overall commodities market for all commodities in the BCOM and weights them in the BCOM in the same proportion in U.S. dollar terms. The value of the BCOM is computed on the basis of hypothetical investments in the basket of commodities that make up the BCOM. As of the Fund’s most recent prospectus, the BCOM invests significantly in, and therefore the Fund has significant exposure to, the agriculture, energy and industrial/ precious metals sectors.

The Fund is classified as “non-diversified” under the 1940 Act.

Performance

For the year ended December 31, 2023 (the fiscal year end of the Fund), on a market price basis, the Fund returned -8.79%. On a net asset value (“NAV”) basis, the Fund returned -8.35%. During the same time period, the BCOM returned -12.55%, and the BCOM TR Index returned -7.91%. The BCOM TR Index is similar to the BCOM except that the BCOM TR Index performance includes the return that would be generated in a fully collateralized investment in the BCOM. This combines the returns of the BCOM with the returns on cash collateral invested in U.S. Treasury Bills. The majority of the Fund’s outperformance on a NAV basis relative to the BCOM is due to slight position differences between the BCOM and the Fund as well as returns on collateral invested in U.S. Treasury Bills. The majority of the Fund's underperformance on a NAV basis relative to the BCOM TR Index is a result of fees and operating expenses incurred by the Fund, slight position differences between the Index and the Fund, and the difference in the return on the collateral invested in U.S. Treasury Bills. While the Fund holds the U.S. Treasury Bills to maturity, the Index calculates the return on cash collateral using a hypothetical treasury bill that is based on the most recent weekly auction high rate for 13-week (3-month) U.S. Treasury Bills and has a duration of only 7 days. In an environment with rising interest rates there will be a greater difference between the return on the cash collateral invested in the Fund versus the return calculated by the Index.

The BCOM TR Index rebalances annually in January and is calculated in total return.

Positions that contributed most significantly to the Fund’s return were gold, sugar, coffee, live cattle and RBOB gasoline. Positions that detracted most significantly from the Fund’s return included natural gas, nickel, corn, wheat, soybean oil, Kansas wheat and lean hogs.

As stated in the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated May 1, 2023, the total annual expense ratio for the Fund, before and after waivers, is 0.32% and 0.26%, respectively. The Advisor has contractually agreed to waive the management fees that it receives from the Fund in

an amount equal to the management fee paid to the Advisor by the Subsidiary. This undertaking will continue for as long as the Fund invests in the Subsidiary and may be terminated only with the approval of the Fund’s Board of Trustees.

abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Longer Dated Strategy K-1 Free ETF

Investment Objective

The abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Longer Dated Strategy K-1 Free ETF seeks to provide investment results that closely correspond, before fees and expenses, to the performance of the Bloomberg Commodity Index 3 Month Forward Total Return (the "Index” or the "BCOM 3M Forward TR Index").

Investment Strategies

The BCOM 3M Forward TR Index is a three-month forward version of the Bloomberg Commodity Index Total Return^SM (“BCOM TR Index”), which reflects the return on a fully collateralized investment in the Bloomberg Commodity Index^SM (“BCOM”). The Fund is called “Longer Dated” because the BCOM 3M Forward TR Index it seeks to track is designed to track commodity futures with a longer maturity than that of the BCOM TR Index and BCOM.

The BCOM is composed of futures contracts on physical commodities and is designed to be a highly liquid and broad-based benchmark for commodities futures investments. Futures contracts on commodities generally are agreements between two parties where one party agrees to buy, and the counterparty to sell, a set amount of a physical commodity (or, in some contracts, a cash equivalent) at a predetermined future date and price. The value of commodity futures contracts is based upon the price movements of the underlying commodities.

As stated in the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated May 1, 2023, the BCOM consists of 24 commodities futures contracts with respect to 22 commodities: aluminum, coffee, copper, corn, cotton, crude oil (West Texas Intermediate, or WTI, and Brent), gold, lead, lean hogs, live cattle, low sulfur gas oil, natural gas, nickel, RBOB (reformulated blendstock for oxygenate blending) gasoline, silver, soybean meal, soybean oil, soybeans, sugar, wheat (Chicago and KC hard red winter), ULS (ultra low sulfur) diesel and zinc.

For the year ended December 31, 2023 (the fiscal year end of the Fund), on a market price basis, the Fund returned -7.59%. On a NAV basis, the Fund returned -7.36%. During the same time period, the BCOM 3M Forward TR Index returned -6.88%. Additionally, the BCOM TR Index, a broad measure of market performance, returned -7.91%. The BCOM 3M Forward TR Index is a three-month forward version of the BCOM TR Index which reflects the return of a fully collateralized investment in the BCOM. The majority of the Fund’s outperformance on a NAV basis relative to the BCOM is due to slight position differences between the BCOM and the Fund as well as returns on collateral invested in U.S. Treasury Bills. The majority of the Fund's underperformance on a NAV basis relative to the BCOM 3M Forward TR Index is a result of fees and operating expenses incurred by the Fund, slight position differences between the Index and the Fund, and the difference in the return on the collateral invested in U.S. Treasury Bills.

abrdn Bloomberg Industrial Metals Strategy K-1 Free ETF

Investment Objective

The abrdn Bloomberg Industrial Metals Strategy K-1 Free ETF (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that closely correspond, before fees and expenses, to the performance of the Bloomberg Industrial Metals Total Return Subindex (the "Index" or the "BCOMIN TR Index").

Investment Strategies

The BCOMIN TR Index reflects the return on a fully collateralized investment in the Bloomberg Industrial Metals Subindex^SM (“BCOMIN”), which is composed of futures contracts on certain industrial metals commodity futures contracts. Futures contracts on commodities generally are agreements between two parties where one party agrees to buy, and the counterparty to sell, a set amount of a physical commodity (or, in some contracts, a cash equivalent) at a pre-determined future date and price. The value of commodity futures contracts is based upon the price movements of the underlying commodities.

The BCOMIN TR Index combines the returns of the BCOMIN with the returns on cash collateral invested in 3-month U.S. Treasury Bills. These returns are calculated by using the most recent weekly auction high rate for 13 week (3 Month) U.S. Treasury Bills, as reported on the website http://www.treasurydirect.gov/ published by the Bureau of the Public Debt of the U.S. Treasury, or any successor source, which is generally published once per week on Monday.

The BCOMIN is a subindex of the widely followed Bloomberg Commodity Index^SM (“BCOM”), which is composed of futures contracts on physical commodities and is designed to be a highly liquid and broad-based benchmark for commodities futures investments.

The BCOMIN and the BCOM are both calculated and published by Bloomberg Finance L.P. and its affiliates, including Bloomberg Index Services Limited, the administrator of the BCOMIN (collectively, “Bloomberg”). The BCOMIN tracks movements in the price of a rolling position in a basket of industrial metals futures with a maturity between 1 and 3 months.

As stated in the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated May 1, 2023, the BCOMIN Index consists of 5 commodities futures contracts with respect to aluminum, copper, lead, nickel and zinc. As of May 1, 2023, there are 6 commodity futures eligible for inclusion in the BCOMIN, but 1 of those commodities (tin) is not included in the BCOMIN. With the exception of copper, which trades on the Commodity Exchange, Inc. (COMEX), the other industrial metals contracts (aluminum, lead, tin, nickel and zinc) trade on the London Metals Exchange (“LME”).

The BCOMIN uses a consistent, systematic process in determining the weightings of included industrial metals. Like the broad BCOM, the weightings of the components of the BCOMIN are based on (1) liquidity data; (2) U.S. dollar-weighted production data; and (3) diversification rules that attempt to reduce disproportionate weightings of any single commodity, which potentially reduces volatility in comparison with narrower commodity baskets. Liquidity data is the relative amount of trading activity for a particular commodity and U.S. dollar-weighted production data takes the figures for production in the overall commodities market for all commodities in the BCOMIN and weights them in the BCOMIN in the same proportion in U.S. dollar terms. The value of the BCOMIN is computed on the basis of hypothetical investments in the basket of industrial metals that make up the BCOMIN. As of the Fund’s most recent prospectus, the BCOMIN TR invests significantly in, and therefore the Fund has significant exposure to, the industrial metals sector.

The Fund is classified as “non-diversified” under the 1940 Act.

Performance

For the year ended December 31, 2023 (the fiscal year end of the Fund), on a market price basis, the Fund returned -9.72%. On a NAV basis, the Fund returned -9.61%. During the same time period, the BCOMIN Index returned -13.72% and the BCOMIN TR Index returned -9.15%. The BCOMIN TR Index is similar to the BCOMIN Index except that the BCOMIN TR Index performance includes the return that would be generated in a fully collateralized investment in the BCOMIN. The majority of the Fund's outperformance on a NAV basis relative to the BCOMIN is due to slight position differences between the BCOMIN and the Fund as well as returns on collateral invested in U.S. Treasury Bills. The majority of the Fund's underperformance on a NAV basis relative to the BCOMIN TR Index is a result of fees and operating expenses incurred by the Fund, slight position differences between the Index and the Fund, and the difference in the return on the collateral invested in U.S. Treasury Bills. While the Fund holds the U.S. Treasury Bills to maturity, the Index calculates the return on cash collateral using a hypothetical treasury bill that is based on the most recent weekly auction high rate for 13-week (3-month) U.S. Treasury Bills and has a duration of only 7 days. In an environment with rising interest rates there will be a greater difference between the return on the cash collateral invested in the Fund versus the return calculated by the Index.

The BCOMIN TR Index rebalances annually in January and is calculated in total return.

The position that contributed to the Fund’s return was copper. Positions that detracted from the Fund’s return included were nickel, zinc, aluminum and lead.

As stated in the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated May 1, 2023, the total annual expense ratio for the Fund, before and after waivers, is 0.54% and 0.40%, respectively. The Advisor has contractually agreed to waive the management fees that it receives from the Fund in

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2023

1. Organization

abrdn ETFs (the “Trust”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on January 9, 2014 and is authorized to issue multiple series or portfolios. The Trust currently consists of three series: abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Strategy K-1 Free ETF, abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Longer Dated Strategy K-1 Free ETF and abrdn Bloomberg Industrial Metals Strategy K-1 Free ETF (each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”). The Trust is an open-end management investment company, registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The offering of the Trust’s shares is registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

Each of the abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Strategy K-1 Free ETF and abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Longer Dated Strategy K-1 Free ETF commenced investment operations on March 30, 2017. The abrdn Bloomberg Industrial Metals Strategy K-1 Free ETF commenced investment operations on September 22, 2021.

Each Fund’s investment objective seeks to provide investment results that closely correspond, before fees and expenses, to the performance of an underlying index (respectively, an “Index” and collectively the “Indices”). Prior to August 3, 2021, each of the abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Strategy K-1 Free ETF and abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Longer Dated Strategy K-1 Free ETF operated under certain different investment policies in connection with a change from an actively-managed ETF to a passively-managed ETF. Prior to changing from an actively-managed ETF to a passively-managed ETF, however, each of the abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Strategy K-1 Free ETF and abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Longer Dated Strategy K-1 Free ETF generally sought to hold similar interests to those included in its respective Index and sought exposure to many of the commodities included in the Index under the same futures rolling schedule as the Index.

Basis of Consolidation

The accompanying Consolidated Schedules of Portfolio Investments, Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities, Consolidated Statements of Operations, Consolidated Statements of Changes in Net Assets and Consolidated Financial Highlights of the Funds include the accounts of abrdn All Commodity Fund Limited, a wholly-owned controlled foreign corporation of the abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Strategy K-1 Free ETF, abrdn All Commodity Longer Dated Fund Limited, a wholly-owned controlled foreign corporation of the abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Longer Dated Strategy K-1 Free ETF and abrdn Industrial Metals Fund Limited, a wholly-owned controlled foreign corporation of the abrdn Bloomberg Industrial Metals Strategy K-1 Free ETF. Each of these subsidiaries is organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (together, the “Subsidiaries” and, each, a “Subsidiary”). All intercompany balances and transactions between a Fund and its Subsidiary have been eliminated in consolidation.

Under normal market conditions, each Fund intends to invest in exchange traded commodity futures contracts through its Subsidiary. As a means to provide investment returns that are designed to track those of its underlying Index, the Subsidiary may also invest directly in commodity-linked instruments, including pooled investment vehicles (such as exchange traded funds and other investment companies), swaps and exchange traded options on futures contracts, to the extent permitted under the 1940 Act and any applicable exemptive relief (collectively, “Commodities-Related Assets” and, together with exchange traded commodities futures contracts, “Commodities Instruments”). Each Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in its Subsidiary. As of December 31, 2023, the net assets of the abrdn All Commodity Fund Limited were $170,548,821, which was 21.1% of the net assets of abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Strategy K-1 Free ETF. As of December 31, 2023, the net assets of the abrdn All Commodity Longer Dated Fund Limited were $41,490,433, which was 18.9% of the net assets of abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Longer Dated Strategy K-1 Free ETF. As of December 31, 2023, the net assets of the abrdn Industrial Metals Fund Limited were $5,074,049, which was 22.4% of the net assets of abrdn Bloomberg Industrial Metals Strategy K-1 Free ETF.

As noted previously, each Fund will not invest directly in commodity futures contracts but, instead, expects to gain exposure to these investments exclusively by investing in its respective Subsidiary. Each Fund’s investment in its respective Subsidiary is intended to enable such Fund to gain exposure to relevant commodity markets within the limits of current federal income tax laws applicable to investment companies such as the Fund, which limit the ability of investment companies to invest directly in commodity futures contracts. Each Fund and its respective Subsidiary have the same investment objective. However, the Subsidiaries may invest without limitation in the Commodities Instruments.

The remainder of each Fund’s assets that are not invested in its Subsidiary will be principally invested in: (1) short-term investment grade fixed-income securities that include U.S. government securities and money market instruments; and (2) cash and other cash equivalents. Each Fund will use such instruments to generate a total return and to provide liquidity, serve as margin or otherwise collateralize investment in Commodities Instruments.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Funds’ consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which may require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Funds are investment companies and, accordingly, follow the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 – "Financial Services Investment Companies".

Investment Valuation

The net asset value (“NAV”) of each Fund is calculated each day the national securities exchanges are open for trading as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange Arca (“NYSE Arca” or the “Listing Exchange”), generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (the “NAV Calculation Time”).

NAV per share is calculated by dividing a Fund’s NAV by the number of Fund shares outstanding.

In calculating each Fund’s NAV, Fund investments generally are valued using market valuations. The Funds value their securities at current market value or fair value, consistent with regulatory requirements. "Fair Value" is defined in the Funds' Valuation and Liquidity Procedures as the price that could be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants without a compulsion to transact at the measurement date. Short-term debt securities with remaining maturities of sixty (60) days or less when originally acquired are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value. U.S. fixed income assets may be valued as of the announced closing time for such securities on any day that the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association announces an early closing time. The values of any assets or liabilities of a Fund that are denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar are converted into U.S. dollars using an exchange rate deemed appropriate by the Fund. The Funds sweep available cash into the Invesco Government & Agency Portfolio, which has elected to qualify as a “government money market fund” pursuant to Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act, and has an objective, which is not guaranteed, to maintain a $1.00 per share NAV. Generally, these investment types are categorized as Level 1 investments

Investments in futures are valued at market value, which is generally determined using the last reported official closing price or last trading price on the exchange or market on which the futures contract is primarily traded at the time of valuation.

Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board of Trustees (the "Board") designated abrdn ETFs Advisors LLC (the "Advisor") as the valuation designee ("Valuation Designee") for the Funds to perform the fair valuation determinations relating to Fund investments for which market quotations are not readily available. Securities that may be valued using fair value pricing may include, but are not limited to, securities for which there are no current market quotations or whose issuer is in default or bankruptcy, securities subject to corporate actions (such as mergers or reorganizations), securities subject to non-U.S. investment limits or currency controls, and securities affected by “significant events.” An example of a significant event is an event occurring after the close of the market in which a security trades but before the Funds’ NAV Calculation Time that may materially affect the value of the Funds’ investment (e.g., government action, natural disaster, or significant market fluctuation). Price movements in U.S. markets that are deemed to affect the value of foreign securities, or reflect changes to the value of such securities, also may cause securities to be “fair valued.”

When fair value pricing is employed, the prices of securities used by a Fund to calculate its NAV may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities. Fair value pricing involves subjective judgments, and it is possible that a fair value determination for a security or other asset is materially different than the value that could be realized upon the sale of such security or asset. In addition, fair value pricing could result in a difference between the prices used to calculate a Fund’s NAV and the prices used by the Index. This may adversely affect a Fund’s ability to track the Index.

Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of each Fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three levels listed below:

•	Level 1— Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets on the measurement date that the Funds have the ability to access.
•	Level 2— Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

•	Level 3— Significant unobservable inputs (including each Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, short-term debt securities may be valued at amortized cost. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the valuation is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2. For each of the Funds, there were no Level 3 investments held for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

The following is a summary of the valuations as of December 31, 2023, for each Fund based upon the three levels defined above.

Money Market Instruments

Each Fund invests a portion of its assets in high-quality money market instruments on an ongoing basis to provide liquidity or for other reasons. The instruments in which a Fund may invest include: (i) short-term obligations issued by the U.S. Government; (ii) negotiable certificates of deposit (“CDs”), fixed time deposits and bankers’ acceptances of U.S. and foreign banks and similar institutions; (iii) commercial paper rated at the date of purchase “Prime-1” by Moody’s or “A-1+” or “A-1” by Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) or, if unrated, of comparable quality as determined by the Fund; and (iv) repurchase agreements. U.S. government securities are obligations of, or guaranteed by, the U.S. government, its agencies or government-sponsored enterprises and such obligations may be short-, intermediate- or long-term. CDs are short-term negotiable obligations of commercial banks. Time deposits are non-negotiable deposits maintained in banking institutions for specified periods of time at stated interest rates. Banker’s acceptances are time drafts drawn on commercial banks by borrowers, usually in connection with international transactions.

Derivatives

Each Fund uses derivative instruments as part of its investment strategies. Generally, derivatives are financial contracts whose value depends upon, or is derived from, the value of an underlying asset, reference rate or index, and may relate to bonds, interest rates, currencies, commodities, and related indexes. Examples of derivative instruments include forward contracts, currency and interest rate swaps, currency options, futures contracts, options on futures contracts and swap agreements. The Funds’ use of derivative instruments will be underpinned by investments in short-term, high-quality instruments, such as U.S. money market securities.

Rule 18f-4 under the 1940 Act governs a registered investment company's use of derivatives and certain other instruments. Under Rule 18f-4, a fund must limit its derivatives exposure through a value-at-risk test, adopt and implement a derivatives risk management program, and comply with certain reporting requirements.

These requirements may limit the ability of a Fund to use derivatives and other relevant transactions as part of its investment strategies. These requirements may increase the cost of the Funds' investments and cost of doing business, which could adversely affect investors.

Commodity Futures

Each Fund, through its Subsidiary, invests in exchange traded commodity futures contracts as part of its principal investment strategies. Commodity futures contracts are an agreement to buy or sell a certain amount of a commodity at a specific price on a specific date (their expiry) which are negotiated and traded on futures exchanges. Commodity futures contracts are generally based upon commodities within the following commodity groups: energy, industrial metals, agriculture, precious metals, foods and fibers, and livestock.

Commodity futures contracts are traded on futures exchanges which provide a central marketplace to negotiate and transact futures contracts, a clearing corporation to process trades and a secondary market. Commodity futures exchanges provide standardization with regards to certain key features such as expiry dates, contract sizes and terms and conditions of delivery. Commodity futures exchanges set a maximum permissible price movement either up or down during a single trading day and when this limit has been reached, no trades may be placed that day at a price beyond that limit. This limit could prevent a Fund from trading when it may otherwise be advantageous to do so. Even with daily price limits, commodity futures contracts have historically experienced greater price volatility than traditional assets such as stocks or bonds. Accordingly, the NAV of a Fund’s shares may be subject to greater volatility than if the Fund only invested in stocks or bonds. Exchanges may also impose position limit rules limiting the value or number of contracts in one commodity that may be held by one market participant to ensure that the amount of futures contracts that any one party may hold in a particular commodity at any point in time to ensure that no one participant can control a significant portion of the market in a particular commodity. In order to comply with the position limits established by the CFTC and the relevant exchanges, the Advisor and/or Vident Advisory, LLC (the "Sub-Advisor") could in the future reduce the size of positions that would otherwise be taken for a Fund or not trade in certain markets on behalf of a Fund in order to avoid exceeding such limits. A violation of position limits by the Advisor and/or Sub-Advisor could lead to regulatory action resulting in mandatory liquidation of certain positions held by the Advisor and/or Sub-Advisor on behalf of a Fund. In addition, in October 2020, the CFTC adopted amendments to its position limits rules that

established certain new and amended position limits for 25 specified physical commodity futures and related options contracts traded on exchanges, other futures contracts and related options directly or indirectly linked to such 25 specified contracts, and any OTC transactions that are economically equivalent to the 25 specified contracts. The limits may constrain the ability of the Funds to use such contracts. The amendments also modify the bona fide hedging exemption for which certain swap dealers were previously eligible, which could limit the amount of speculative OTC transaction capacity each such swap dealer would have available for the Funds going forward. There can be no assurance that the Advisor and/or Sub-Advisor will liquidate positions held on behalf of all the Advisor and/or Sub-Advisor's accounts in a proportionate manner or at favorable prices, which could result in substantial losses to a Fund. Such policies could affect the nature and extent of derivatives use by a Fund.

More commonly, as futures contracts near expiry, they are often replaced with a later dated contract in a process known as “rolling”. This involves selling the contracts before they expire and purchasing similar contacts that have a later expiry date. Any difference between the price for the nearer delivery month contract and the price for distant month contract is known as a ‘roll yield’ and this can be either a positive amount or a negative amount. Futures contracts may be satisfied at expiry by delivery of the relevant commodity from one party to the other.

Commodity futures contract prices are generally comprised of the price of the relevant commodity as well as the costs of storing the physical commodity. Storage costs include (i) the time value of money invested in the physical commodity, (ii) plus the costs of storing the commodity, (iii) less any benefits of owning the physical commodity not obtained by the holder of a futures contract (the “convenience yield”).

Due to the volatility of commodity futures and the risk of credit risk exposure to the counterparty to the contract, commodity futures exchanges each have clearing corporations which act as counterparty to all contracts by either buying or selling directly to the market participants. This means that when each Subsidiary purchases or sells commodity futures contracts, their obligations will be to the clearing house and it will be the clearing house that is obliged to satisfy the Subsidiaries’ rights under a commodity futures contract.

To ensure a party to a futures contract fulfills its obligations to the clearing house, all participants are required to post and maintain a level of collateral (the collateral is known as “margin”). An exchange will set the margin requirements for the contracts which trade there and these can be modified by the terms of the futures contract. Margin requirements range upward from less than 5% of the value of the futures contract being traded. Margin requirements can be offset by other opposing futures transactions, in which situation margin payments will continue to be required.

When the price of a particular futures contract increases (in the case of a sale) or decreases (in the case of a purchase) and any loss on the futures contract means that the margin already held does not satisfy margin requirements, further margin must be posted. Conversely, if there is a favorable price change in the futures contract any excess margin may be removed from the relevant deposit account. Any gain or loss on London Metal Exchange (“LME”) futures contracts is not realized until their respective maturity dates. At a reporting period end, the net unrealized appreciation and depreciation on LME futures contracts is included in unrealized appreciation and unrealized depreciation on open futures contracts on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Any margin deposited by a Subsidiary should earn interest income.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, the average notional value of the Futures Contracts held by the Funds was as follows:

Taxes and Distributions

Each Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company (a "RIC") by complying with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), which includes distributing substantially all of its net investment income and net capital gains to its shareholders. Accordingly, no federal income tax provision is required in the financial statements.

The Subsidiaries are exempted Cayman investment companies and as such are not subject to Cayman Island taxes at the present time. For U.S. income tax purposes, the Subsidiaries are controlled foreign corporations not subject to U.S. income taxes. As wholly- owned controlled foreign corporations, the Subsidiaries’ net income and capital gains, if any, will be included each year in the Funds’ investment company taxable income.

As of December 31, 2023, management of the Funds has reviewed all open tax years and major jurisdictions and concluded that there is no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in future tax returns. The Funds’ conclusions may be subject to future review based on changes in, or the interpretation of, the accounting standards or tax laws and regulations. The management of the Funds is also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.

The Funds pay out dividends and distribute net capital gains, if any, to shareholders at least annually. Ordinarily, dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid annually by each Fund. Each Fund also intends to distribute its net realized capital gains, if any, to shareholders annually. These distributions may be taxed as ordinary income or capital gains.

The tax character of the distributions paid for the tax years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were as follows:

	Year Ended December 31, 2023				Year Ended December 31, 2022
	Distributions paid from ordinary income	Distributions paid from net long term capital gains	Tax return of captial	Total Distributions	Distributions paid from ordinary income	Distributions paid from net long term capital gains	Tax return of captial	Total Distributions
abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Strategy K-1 Free ETF	$31,685,215	$–	$140,888	$31,826,103	$113,253,029	$–	$55,111,943	$168,364,972
abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Longer Dated Strategy K-1 Free ETF	9,635,199	–	94,578	9,729,777	13,365,522	–	412,358	13,777,880
abrdn Bloomberg Industrial Metals Strategy K-1 Free ETF	797,588	–	–	797,588	221,713	–	–	221,713

At December 31, 2023, the components of distributable earnings/(accumulated loss) on tax basis were as follows:

Fund	Undistributed Ordinary Income	Undistributed Long-Term Capital Gains	Accumulated Capital and Other Losses	Unrealized Appreciation/ (Depreciation)
abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Strategy K-1 Free ETF	$–	$–	$(418,504)	$(11,687,137)
abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Longer Dated Strategy K-1 Free ETF	–	–	(129,565)	(4,943,551)
abrdn Bloomberg Industrial Metals Strategy K-1 Free ETF	1,527	–	(33,227)	1,019,592

Permanent differences, primarily due to income and gain/loss from investments in the Subsidiaries, resulted in the following reclassifications as of December 31, 2023, among the Funds’ components of net assets:

Fund	Paid-in Capital	Distributable Earnings/ (Accumulated Loss)
abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Strategy K-1 Free ETF	$(96,611,321)	$96,611,321
abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Longer Dated Strategy K-1 Free ETF	(21,130,964)	21,130,964
abrdn Bloomberg Industrial Metals Strategy K-1 Free ETF	(2,114,420)	2,114,420

For the tax year ended December 31, 2023, following Funds had available capital loss carryforwards with no expiration date to offset future net capital gains to the extent provided by regulations:

Fund	Short-Term	Total
abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Strategy K-1 Free ETF	$418,504	$418,504
abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Longer Dated Strategy K-1 Free ETF	129,565	129,565
abrdn Bloomberg Industrial Metals Strategy K-1 Free ETF	33,227	33,227

Under current tax rules, Regulated Investment Companies can elect to treat certain post-October capital losses (capital losses realized after October 31) as arising on the first day of the following taxable year. As of December 31, 2023, neither of the Funds had post-October capital losses.

3. Investment Transactions and Related Income and Expenses

Throughout the reporting period, investment transactions are recorded on trade date.

Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, or as soon as information is available. Gains or losses realized on sales of securities are determined using the specific identification method by comparing the identified cost of the security lot sold with the net sales proceeds. Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are accreted and amortized over the lives of the respective securities.

4. Transactions with Related Parties, Investment Advisory Fees

Under the terms of the Trust’s Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”), the Advisor is subject to the supervision of the Board and is responsible for the day-to-day business of the Funds, including the day-to-day management of risk of the Funds in accordance with each Fund’s investment objectives and policies. As compensation for its advisory services and assumption of each Fund’s expenses, the Advisor is entitled to a management fee, computed daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.25% (abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Strategy K-1 Free ETF), 0.29% (abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Longer Dated Strategy K-1 Free ETF) and 0.39% (abrdn Bloomberg Industrial Metals Strategy K-1 Free ETF) of average daily net assets of the applicable Fund and its Subsidiary.

Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Advisor has agreed to pay all expenses of the Funds, including the fees payable to the Sub-Advisor, except for: (i) brokerage expenses and other fees, charges, taxes, levies or expenses (such as stamp taxes) incurred in connection with the execution of portfolio transactions or in connection with creation and redemption transactions (including without limitation any fees, charges, taxes, levies or expenses related to the purchase or sale of an amount of any currency, or the patriation or repatriation of any security or other asset, related to the execution of portfolio transactions or any creation or redemption transactions); (ii) legal fees or expenses in connection with any arbitration, litigation or pending or threatened arbitration or litigation, including any settlements in connection therewith; (iii) compensation and expenses of counsel to the Trustees of the Trust who are not officers, directors/trustees, partners or employees of the Advisor or its affiliates (the “Independent Trustees”); (iv) compensation and expenses of the Trust’s CCO (although, currently, the Advisor is voluntarily paying this expense); (v) extraordinary expenses (in each case as determined by a majority of the Independent Trustees); (vi) distribution fees and expenses paid by the Trust under any distribution plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act; (vii) interest and taxes of any kind or nature (including, but not limited to, income, excise, transfer and withholding taxes); (viii) any fees and expenses related to the provision of securities lending services; and (ix) the advisory fee payable to the Advisor. The expenses of the Funds for which the Advisor has agreed to pay pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement are referred to as “Covered Expenses”. The internal expenses of pooled investment vehicles in which a Fund may invest (acquired fund fees and expenses) are not expenses of the Fund and are not paid by the Advisor.

The Advisor also serves as advisor to each Fund’s Subsidiary and each Subsidiary pays a proportion of the management fee of the Advisor. Pursuant to the investment advisory agreement between each Fund's Subsidiary and the Advisor, the Advisor has agreed to pay all expenses incurred by the Subsidiary except for: (i) brokerage expenses and other fees, charges, taxes, levies or expenses (such as stamp taxes) incurred in connection with the execution of portfolio transactions (including without limitation any fees, charges, taxes, levies or expenses related to the purchase or sale of an amount of any currency, or the patriation or repatriation of any security or other asset, related to the execution of portfolio transactions); (ii) extraordinary expenses (in each case as determined by a majority of the Independent Trustees); (iii) interest and taxes of any kind or nature (including, but not limited to, income, excise, transfer and withholding taxes); and (iv) the advisory fee payable by the Subsidiary to the Advisor. The advisory fee paid by each Fund is based on the Fund’s average daily net assets, which includes the net assets of the relevant Subsidiary. In recognition of this, the Advisor has contractually agreed to waive the management fees that it receives from the Funds in an amount equal to the management fees paid to the Advisor by the Subsidiaries. This undertaking will continue for so long as the Funds invest in the Subsidiaries and may be terminated only with the approval of the Board, except that it would terminate automatically if the Investment Advisory Agreement with the Trust terminates.

A Trustee and certain Officers of the Trust are employees of the Advisor or its affiliates, or the Administrator.

Under the sub-advisory agreement between the Advisor and the Sub-Advisor (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement”), the Sub-Advisor is responsible for trading portfolio securities on behalf of the Funds, including selecting broker-dealers to execute purchase and sale transactions or in connection with any rebalancing or reconstitution of the Index, subject to the supervision of the Advisor and the

Board. Under the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Advisor pays the Sub-Advisor a fee, calculated daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate based on a percentage of the average daily net assets of each Fund, subject to a minimum annual fee, as set forth below:

Fund	Annual Rate	Minimum Annual Fee
abrdn Bloomberg Industrial Metals Strategy K-1 Free ETF	0.055% on first $250 million	$18,000
	0.045% on next $250 million
	0.04% on assets over $500 million
abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Strategy K-1 Free ETF	0.04%	$18,000
abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Longer Dated Strategy K-1 Free ETF	0.04%	$18,000

5. Administration Fees

abrdn Inc. (the “Administrator”) serves as the Funds’ administrator, and State Street Bank and Trust Company (the “Sub-Administrator”) serves as sub-administrator. The Sub-Administrator provides certain administrative services to the Funds. For these services, the Sub- Administrator is entitled to certain fees and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. These fees and expenses are Covered Expenses that are paid by the Advisor as described above.

6. Custodian Fees

State Street Bank and Trust Company (the “Custodian”) serves as custodian for the Funds in accordance with a Master Custody Agreement. The Custodian holds cash, securities and other assets of the Funds as required by the 1940 Act. As compensation for the services rendered under the agreement, the Custodian is entitled to fees and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. These fees and expenses are Covered Expenses that are paid by the Advisor as described above.

7. Trustees Fees

The Advisor pays the compensation for the Independent Trustees of the Trust. During the year ended December 31, 2023, each Independent Trustee received an aggregate fee consisting of a $34,000 annual retainer and a $4,000 per-meeting fee, payable quarterly, plus expenses, for his or her services as a Trustee of the Trust and as a member of any Board committees. These fees and expenses are Covered Expenses that are paid by the Advisor as described above. Effective January 1, 2024, each Independent Trustee will receive an aggregate fee consisting of $50,000 annual retainer and a $5,000 per meeting fee, payable quarterly, plus expenses, for his or her service as a Trustee of the Trust and as a member of any Board committees.

8. Distribution and Service Plan

ALPS Distributors, Inc. (the “Distributor”) serves as the Funds’ distributor and distributes Creation Units (as defined in Note 9). Each Fund has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act pursuant to which payment of up to 0.25% of average daily net assets may be made. However, no such fee is currently paid by the Funds.

9. Issuance and Redemption of Fund Shares

Each Fund issues and redeems shares only to Authorized Participants (typically market makers, large investors and institutions) that have entered into agreements with the Fund’s Distributor (“Authorized Participants” or, individually, an “Authorized Participant”) in exchange for the deposit or delivery of assets (securities and/or cash), in large blocks known as creation units ("Creation Units"), each of which is comprised of a specified number of shares. Retail investors may only purchase and sell Fund shares on a national securities exchange through a broker-dealer and such transaction may be subject to customary commission rates imposed by the broker-dealer. Information related to share transactions for each Fund during the reporting period is presented on the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Net Assets. The Funds each offer one class of shares, which has no front end sales load, no deferred sales charge and no redemption fee.

Creation/Redemption Transaction Fee. A transaction fee, as set forth in the table below, is imposed for the transfer and other transaction costs associated with the purchase or redemption of Creation Units, as applicable. Authorized Participants will be required to pay a fixed creation transaction fee and/or a fixed redemption transaction fee, as applicable, on a given day regardless of the number of Creation Units created or redeemed on that day. Each Fund may adjust the transaction fee from time to time, and a Fund may waive all or a portion of its applicable transaction fee(s). An additional charge or a variable charge (discussed below) will be applied to

certain creation and redemption transactions, including non-standard orders and whole or partial cash purchases or redemptions. With respect to creation orders, Authorized Participants are responsible for the costs of transferring the securities constituting the Deposit Securities to the account of the applicable Fund and with respect to redemption orders, Authorized Participants are responsible for the costs of transferring the applicable Fund Securities from the Trust to their account or on their order. Investors who use the services of a broker or other such intermediary may also be charged a fee for such services. To the extent a Fund cannot recoup the amount of transaction costs incurred in connection with a purchase or redemption because of the 2% transaction fee cap or otherwise, those transaction costs will be borne by the Fund and negatively affect the Fund’s performance.

Creation and Redemption Transaction Fees:

Fund	Transaction Fee^*	Maximun Transaction Fee^**
abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Strategy K-1 Free ETF	$100	2%
abrdn Bloomberg All Commodity Longer Dated Strategy K-1 Free ETF	100	2
abrdn Bloomberg Industrial Metals Strategy K-1 Free ETF	100	2


*	An additional charge of up to three (3) times the standard transaction fee may be charged to the extent a transaction is outside of the clearing process.
**	In addition to the transaction fees listed above, a Fund may charge an additional variable fee for creations and redemptions in cash to offset brokerage and impact expenses associated with the cash transaction. The variable transaction fee will be calculated based on historical transaction cost data and the Advisor’s view of current market conditions; however, the actual variable fee charged for a given transaction may be lower or higher than the trading expenses incurred by a Fund with respect to that transaction.

10. Investment Transactions

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, there were no costs associated with securities purchased or proceeds from sales of securities as all of the operational Funds were invested in short-term securities only.

11. In-Kind Transactions

Each Fund may deliver its investment securities in exchange for the redemption of shares (redemptions-in-kind). Cash and securities can be transferred for redemptions at fair value. For financial reporting purposes, each Fund records net realized gains and losses in connection with each transaction. Each Fund may also receive securities in exchange for subscriptions of shares (subscriptions-in-kind). For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, there were no in-kind transactions.

12. Principal Risks

The Funds’ investments are subject to a variety of risks that may cause the Funds’ NAVs to fluctuate over time. Therefore, the value of an investment in a Fund could decline and an investor could lose money. Also, there is no assurance that the Advisor or the Sub-Advisor will achieve the Funds’ objectives. Unless otherwise specified, the risks described in this Note apply to each Fund.

a. General Market Risk

An investment in a Fund should be made with an understanding that the value of each Fund’s assets may fluctuate in accordance with changes in the financial condition of an issuer or counterparty, changes in specific economic or political conditions that affect a particular asset or issuer and changes in general economic or political conditions (see “Commodity Price Risk”). In addition, political, economic, social and other conditions, such as war, terrorism, social unrest, public health emergencies (i.e., pandemics like COVID-19), natural disasters, rising inflation and interest rates, or other similar issues, could reduce consumer demand or economic output, result in market closures, travel restrictions or quarantines, and generally have a significant impact on the world economy, which in turn could adversely affect a Fund’s investments. In addition, armed conflict can result in significant disruptions to the commodities markets. In response to such conflict or for other reasons, governments may impose economic sanctions against certain countries, entities and/or individuals. Economic sanctions and other similar governmental actions could, among other things, prevent or prohibit certain entities or individuals from participating in the commodities markets or otherwise impact the functioning of those markets. Such actions could decrease the liquidity and value of instruments held by a Fund. Sanctions could also result in countermeasures or retaliatory actions, which may adversely impact a Fund’s investments, including those that are not economically

tied to sanctioned countries, entities and/or individuals. Although it is not possible to predict the impact that any sanctions and retaliatory actions may have on a Fund, such events could significantly harm the value of a Fund’s investments and a Fund’s performance.

In addition, in February 2022, Russia commenced a military attack on Ukraine. The ongoing hostilities between the two countries and the threat of wider spread hostilities could have a severe adverse effect on the region and global economies, including significant negative impacts on the markets for certain securities and commodities, such as oil and natural gas. In addition, sanctions imposed on Russia by the United States and other countries, and any sanctions imposed in the future, could have a significant adverse impact on the Russian economy and related markets. The price and liquidity of investments may fluctuate widely as a result of the conflict and related events. How long the armed conflict and related events will last cannot be predicted. These tensions and any related events could have a significant impact on Fund performance and the value of the Funds’ investments.

Policy and legislative changes in countries around the world are affecting many aspects of financial regulation, and governmental and quasi-governmental authorities and regulators throughout the world have previously responded to serious economic disruptions with a variety of significant fiscal and monetary policy changes.

b. Commodity Price Risk

The NAV of a Fund will be affected by movements in commodity prices generally and by the way in which those prices and other factors affect the prices of the commodity futures contracts. Commodity prices generally may fluctuate widely and may be affected by numerous factors, including:

•	global or regional political, economic or financial events and situations, particularly war, terrorism, expropriation and other activities which might lead to disruptions to supply from countries that are major commodity producers;
•	investment trading, hedging or other activities conducted by large trading houses, producers, users, hedge funds, commodities funds, governments or other speculators which could impact global supply or demand;
•	the weather, which can affect short-term demand or supply for some commodities;
•	the future rates of economic activity and inflation, particularly in countries which are major consumers of commodities;
•	major discoveries of sources of commodities; and
•	disruptions to the infrastructure or means by which commodities are produced, distributed and stored, which are capable of causing substantial price movements in a short period of time.

Prices of commodity futures contracts fluctuate widely and have in the past experienced periods of extreme volatility and this may be affected by:

•	commodity prices generally;
•	trading activities on the exchanges upon which they trade, which might be impacted by the liquidity in the futures contracts; and
•	trading activity specific to particular futures contract(s) and maturities.

c. Commodity Sector Risks

The daily performance of the current, or "spot", price of certain commodities has a direct impact on Fund performance. To the extent that a Fund has significant exposure to a particular commodity sector, the Fund may be more susceptible to loss due to adverse occurrences affecting that sector, including a decline in the price of commodities in such sector.

•

Agricultural Sector Investment Risk. The daily performance of the spot price of certain agricultural commodities, including coffee, corn, cotton, lean hogs, live cattle, soybean meal, soybean oil, soybeans, sugar, wheat (Chicago and KC hard red winter), has a direct impact on Fund performance. Investments in the agriculture sector may be highly volatile and the market values of such commodities can change quickly and unpredictably due to a number of factors, such as the supply of, and demand for, each commodity, the strength of the domestic and global economy, legislative or regulatory developments relating to food safety, as well as other significant events, including public health, political, legal, financial, accounting and tax matters that are beyond the

	Fund’s control. In addition, increased competition caused by economic recession, labor difficulties and changing consumer tastes and spending can impact the demand for agricultural products and, in turn, the value of such investments.
•	Energy Sector Investment Risk. The daily performance of the spot price of certain energy-related commodities, including crude oil (West Texas Intermediate, or WTI, and Brent), low sulfur gas oil, natural gas, nickel, RBOB (reformulated blendstock for oxygenate blending) gasoline and ULS (ultra low sulfur) diesel, has a direct impact on Fund performance. Energy commodities’ market values are significantly impacted by a number of factors, such as the supply of, and demand for, each commodity, the strength of the domestic and global economy, significant world events, capital expenditures on exploration and production, energy conservation efforts, government regulation and subsidization and technological advances. Investments in the energy sector may be cyclical and/or highly volatile and subject to swift price fluctuations. In addition, significant declines in the price of oil may contribute to significant market volatility, which may adversely affect the Fund’s performance. The energy sector has recently experienced significant volatility due to dramatic changes in the prices of energy commodities, and it is possible that such volatility will continue in the future.
•	Metals Sector Investment Risk. The daily performance of the spot price of certain industrial and precious metals, including aluminum, copper, gold, lead, nickel, silver and zinc, has a direct impact on Fund performance. Investments in metals may be highly volatile and the market values of such commodities can change quickly and unpredictably due to a number of factors, such as the supply of, and demand for, each metal, the strength of the domestic and global economy, international monetary policy, environmental or labor costs, as well as other significant events, including public health, political, legal, financial, accounting and tax matters that are beyond the Fund’s control. The United States or foreign governments may pass laws or regulations limiting metal investments for strategic or other policy reasons. Further, the principal supplies of metal industries may be concentrated in a small number of countries and regions.
	As of the date of this report, the Bloomberg Industrial Metals Subindex ("BCOMIN"), the index that the abrdn Bloomberg Industrial Metals Strategy K-1 Free ETF seeks to track, consists of 5 commodities futures contracts with respect to the following industrial metals: aluminum, copper, lead, nickel and zinc. Consequently, in addition to factors affecting commodities generally, the BCOMIN may be subject to a number of additional factors specific to industrial metals, and in particular aluminum, copper, lead, nickel and zinc, that might cause price volatility. These may include, among others:

•	changes in the level of industrial activity using industrial metals, and in particular aluminum, copper, lead, nickel and zinc, including the availability of substitutes such as man-made or synthetic substitutes;
•	disruptions in the supply chain, from mining to storage to smelting or refining;
•	adjustments to inventory;
•	variations in production costs, including storage, labor and energy costs;
•	costs associated with regulatory compliance, including environmental regulations; and
•	changes in industrial, government and consumer demand, both in individual consuming nations and internationally.

d. Passive Management Risk

Because the Funds are not “actively” managed, unless a specific security is removed from the applicable Index, the Funds generally would not sell an investment because of the investment’s performance. Additionally, unusual market conditions may cause the Index provider to postpone a scheduled rebalance or reconstitution, which could cause the Index to vary from its normal or expected composition. Therefore, a Fund’s performance could be lower than funds that may actively shift their portfolio assets to take advantage of market opportunities or to lessen the impact of a market decline or a decline in the value of one or more investments. As the Fund may not fully replicate the Index, it is subject to the risk that the investment strategy of the Advisor or Sub-Advisor may not produce the intended results.

e. Index Tracking Risk

As with all index funds, the performance of a Fund and the Index may differ from each other for a variety of reasons. For example, the Fund incurs operating expenses and portfolio transaction costs not incurred by the Index. Index tracking risk may also occur because of differences between the investments held in the Fund’s portfolio and those included in the Index, pricing differences (including, as applicable, differences between a security’s price at the local market close and the Fund’s valuation of a security at the time of

calculation of the Fund’s NAV), differences in transaction costs, the Fund’s holding of uninvested cash, differences in timing of the accrual of dividends or interest, the requirements to maintain pass-through tax treatment, portfolio transactions carried out to minimize the distribution of capital gains to shareholders, changes to the Index or the need to meet various new or existing regulatory requirements, among other reasons. Moreover, the Fund may be delayed in purchasing or selling investments included in the Index. In addition, the Fund may not be fully invested in the investments included in the Index at all times or may hold investments that are not included in the Index. In addition, the Fund’s use of a representative sampling approach may cause the Fund to not track the return of the Index as would be the case if the Fund purchased all of the instruments in the Index, or invested in them in the exact proportions in which they are represented in the Index. Index tracking risk may be heightened during times of increased market volatility or other unusual market conditions. Index ETFs that track indices with significant weight in futures contracts issuers may experience higher index tracking risk than other index ETFs that do not track such indices.

f. Index-Related Risk

There is no guarantee that a Fund’s investment results will closely correspond, before fees and taxes, to the performance of the Index or that the Fund will achieve its investment objective. Market disruptions and regulatory restrictions could have an adverse effect on the Fund’s ability to track the Index. Errors in index data, index computations or the construction of the Index in accordance with its methodology may occur from time to time and may not be identified and corrected by the Index Provider for a period of time or at all, which may have an adverse impact on the Fund and its shareholders. Unusual market conditions may cause the Index Provider to postpone a scheduled rebalance, which could cause the Index to vary from its normal or expected composition.

g. Fixed-Income Securities Risk

Fixed-income securities fluctuate in price based on changes in an issuer’s financial condition and overall market and economic conditions, such as real or perceived adverse economic or political conditions, inflation, changes in interest or currency rates, lack of liquidity in the bond markets or adverse investor sentiment. The value of a security may also fall due to specific conditions that affect a particular sector of the securities market or a particular issuer. Fixed-income securities are subject to, among other risks, credit risk, interest rate risk, inflation risk, market risk, liquidity risk, extension risk, and prepayment risk. Fixed-income securities are not traded on exchanges. The over-the-counter market may be illiquid, and there may be times when no counterparty is willing to purchase or sell certain securities. The nature of the market may make valuations difficult or unreliable.

•	Credit Risk. Credit risk refers to the possibility that the issuer of a security will not be able to make principal and/or interest payments when due and is broadly gauged by the credit ratings of the securities in which a Fund invests. However, ratings are only the opinions of rating agencies and are not guarantees of the quality of the securities. In addition, the depth and liquidity of the market for a fixed-income security may affect its credit risk. Credit risk of a security may change over its life and rated securities are often reviewed and may be subject to downgrade by a rating agency. A Fund purchasing bonds faces the risk that the creditworthiness of an issuer may decline, or the market’s perception of an issuer’s creditworthiness may decline, causing the value of the bonds to decline. In addition, an issuer may not be able to make timely payments on the interest and/or principal on the bonds it has issued.
•	Interest Rate Risk. Interest rates have an effect on the value of a Fund’s fixed income investments because the value of those investments will vary as interest rates fluctuate. Generally, fixed-income securities will decrease in value when interest rates rise and when interest rates decline, the value of fixed-income securities can be expected to rise. A Fund may be subject to a greater risk of rising interest rates due to the effect of recent and potential government fiscal policy initiatives and resulting market reaction to those initiatives. In periods of market volatility, the market values of fixed-income securities may be more sensitive to changes in interest rates. In addition, a Fund’s income may decline due to falling interest rates or other factors. Interest rate risk is generally lower for shorter-term investments and higher for longer-term investments. For example, the price of a security with a ten-year duration would be expected to drop by approximately 10% in response to a 1% increase in interest rates.
•	Inflation Risk. Inflation risk is the risk that prices of existing fixed-rate debt securities will decline due to inflation or the threat of inflation. The income produced by these securities is worth less when prices for goods and services rise. To compensate for this loss of purchasing power, the securities trade at lower prices. Inflation also reduces the purchasing power of any income you receive from a Fund.
•	Liquidity Risk. A Fund may make investments that are, or may become, less liquid due to various factors, including general market conditions or conditions impacting the issuer of, or counterparty to, the investment. These investments may be more difficult to value or sell, particularly in times of market turmoil, and there may be fewer trading opportunities available for the investments.

	Less liquid investments may have higher risks than more liquid investments. These risks may be magnified as interest rates rise or in other circumstances. If a Fund is forced to sell a less liquid investment to fund redemptions or to raise cash, it may be forced to sell the investment at a loss or for less than its fair value.
•	Extension Risk. Extension risk is the risk that principal repayments will not occur as quickly as anticipated, causing the expected maturity of a security to increase. Rapidly rising interest rates may cause prepayments to occur more slowly than expected, thereby lengthening the maturity of the securities held by the Fund and making their prices more sensitive to rate changes and more volatile.
•	Prepayment Risk. As interest rates decline, debt issuers may repay or refinance their loans or obligations earlier than anticipated. This forces the Fund to reinvest the proceeds from the principal prepayments at lower rates, which reduces the Fund’s income.

h. Money Market Risk

Money market instruments may be subject to market risk and credit risk. There is no guarantee that money market instruments will maintain their value.

i. Futures Contracts Risk

The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts, or swaps or other derivatives referencing futures contracts, are: (i) an imperfect correlation between the value of the futures contract and the value of the underlying commodity; (ii) possible lack of a liquid secondary market for a futures contract; (iii) the inability to open or close a futures contract or cash commodity position when desired; (iv) losses caused by unanticipated market movement, which may result in losses in excess of the amount invested in the futures contract (and potentially may be unlimited); (v) in the event of adverse price movements, an obligation of the Fund to make daily cash payments to maintain its required margin, including at times when it may have insufficient cash and must sell securities from its portfolio to meet those margin requirements at a disadvantageous time; (vi) the possibility that a failure to close a position may result in delivery of an illiquid commodity to the Fund; and (vii) the possibility that rapid selling to avoid delivery of a commodity may result in unfavorable execution prices. Although it is intended that the Fund will only enter into futures contracts if there is an active market for such contracts, there is no assurance that an active market will exist for the contracts at any particular time.

The risk of loss in trading futures contracts or uncovered call options in some strategies (e.g., selling uncovered stock index futures contracts) is potentially unlimited. The Funds do not currently plan to use futures and options contracts in this way. The risk of a futures position may still be large as traditionally measured due to the low margin deposits required. In many cases, a relatively small price movement in a futures contract may result in immediate and substantial loss or gain to the investor relative to the size of a required margin deposit. The Funds, however, intend to utilize futures and options contracts in a manner designed to limit its risk exposure to levels comparable to direct investment in stocks.

Utilization of futures and options on futures by a Fund, through its Subsidiary, involves the risk of loss by the Subsidiary of margin deposits in the event of bankruptcy of a broker with whom the Subsidiary has an open position in the futures contract or option. The purchase of put or call options will be based upon predictions by a Subsidiary as to anticipated trends, which predictions could prove to be incorrect.

There is also liquidity risk that a particular future cannot be sold, closed out, or replaced quickly at or very close to its fundamental value. If the Subsidiary encounters problems and it is not possible to close out the relevant positions, it might be required to continue to maintain such assets or accounts or make such payments until the position expires, matures, or is closed out. This could prevent the Subsidiary from being able to sell a security or make an investment at the optimum time or require it to sell that investment at a disadvantageous time. Due to liquidity risk in the underlying instruments, there is no assurance that any futures position can be sold or closed out at a time and price that is favorable to the Subsidiary.

The potential for loss related to the purchase of an option on a futures contract is limited to the premium paid for the option plus transaction costs. Because the value of the option is fixed at the point of sale, there are no daily cash payments by the purchaser to reflect changes in the value of the underlying contract. However, the value of the option changes daily and that change would be reflected in the NAV of a Fund. The potential for loss related to writing options may be unlimited.

Although it is intended that the Funds will only enter into futures contracts if there is an active market for such contracts, there is no assurance that an active market will exist for the contracts at any particular time. An exchange may halt or suspend trading in such instruments, potentially for an extended period of time. When trading in such instruments is halted or suspended, it may not be possible

to enter into or close out of positions in such instruments when it would otherwise be desirable to do so. An exchange may also cancel trades in futures contracts, which could prevent a Fund from implementing its investment strategy. These actions could significantly impact the value of such instruments and potentially subject a Fund to substantial losses. They could also make it more difficult for a Fund to value a particular instrument, potentially resulting in tracking error. In addition, they could cause a Fund to hold a particular instrument until the contractual delivery date or impair the Fund’s ability to access assets used to cover its positions in such instruments. Furthermore, when an exchange cancels, halts or suspends trading in one instrument, the value or liquidity of other instruments may also be impacted.

Certain of the futures contracts in which a Fund may invest trade on non-U.S. exchanges, such as the London Metal Exchange (“LME”), that impose different requirements than U.S. exchanges. These futures contracts may be subject to additional risks, including greater price volatility, temporary price aberrations and the potential imposition of trading halts and/or limits that constrain appreciation or cause depreciation of the prices of such futures contracts, as well as different and longer settlement periods. In certain circumstances, a Fund may be required to dispose of, or novate, certain of its futures contracts earlier than the contracts’ prompt date in order to meet shareholder redemption requests. The counterparties through which a Fund or the Sub-Advisor trade may impose additional fees and interest charges for novating futures contracts, which may reduce the proceeds due to the Fund on such contracts below the price at which they are valued and the Fund’s NAV may decline as a result. For example, unlike U.S. futures exchanges, the LME has no daily price fluctuation limits that restrict the extent of daily fluctuations in the prices of contracts traded on the LME, thereby creating the possibility that prices for one or more contracts traded on the LME, including the index component, could continue to decline without limitation over a period of trading days. However, the LME has in the past, and may again in the future, suspend and/or cancel trades in derivatives contracts traded on the LME for reasons including unprecedented price activity. Additionally, because contracts traded on the LME may call for delivery on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis, there may be an increased risk of a concentration of positions in contracts trading on the LME on particular delivery dates as compared to futures contracts traded on U.S. futures exchanges.

j. Roll Yield

During situations where the cost of any futures contracts for delivery on dates further in the future is higher than those for delivery closer in time, the value of the Funds holding such contracts will decrease over time unless the spot price of that contract increases by the same rate as the rate of the variation in the price of the futures contract. The rate of variation could be quite significant and last for an indeterminate period of time, reducing the value of a Fund.

k. Authorized Participants

Only an Authorized Participant may engage in creation or redemption transactions directly with a Fund, and none of those Authorized Participants is obligated to engage in creation and/or redemption transactions. The Funds have entered into Authorized Participant Agreements with only a limited number of institutions. Should these Authorized Participants cease to act as such or for any reason be unable to create or redeem shares of the Funds and new Authorized Participants not appointed in their place, shares of the Funds may trade at a discount to that Fund’s net asset value and possibly face trading halts or delisting.

l. Cash Redemption Risk

Each Fund expects to effect its creations and redemptions primarily for cash due to the nature of its investments. Paying redemption proceeds in cash rather than through in-kind delivery of portfolio securities may require a Fund to dispose of or sell portfolio investments at an inopportune time in order to obtain the cash needed to distribute redemption proceeds at an inopportune time. This may also cause a Fund to recognize investment income and/or capital gains that it might not have recognized if it had made a redemption in-kind. As a result, the Funds may be less tax efficient and may have to pay out higher annual distributions than if the Funds used the in-kind redemption process. As a practical matter, only institutions and large investors, such as market makers or other large broker-dealers, purchase or redeem Creation Units. Most investors will buy and sell Fund shares on an exchange. Redemption requests may occasionally exceed the cash balance of a Fund and result in credit line borrowing fees and/or overdraft charges to the Fund until the sales of portfolio securities necessary to cover the redemption request settle. In addition, settlement periods on the LME may result in the need for a Fund to dispose of, or novate, certain futures contracts early in order to meet redemption requests. In such circumstances, a Fund may incur additional transaction fees and interest charges and the Fund’s NAV may decline based on the difference between the price at which the Fund valued the contracts and the proceeds received.

m. Commodity Pool Regulatory Risk

Each Fund is deemed to be a commodity pool due to its investment exposure to commodity futures contracts and is subject to regulation under the Commodity Exchange Act (“CEA”) and Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) rules as well as the regulatory scheme applicable to registered investment companies. The Advisor is registered as a commodity pool operator (“CPO”) and the Sub-Advisor is registered as a commodity trading advisor (“CTA”). Registration as a CPO and CTA imposes additional compliance obligations on the Advisor, the Sub-Advisor, and each Fund related to additional laws, regulations, and enforcement policies, which could increase compliance costs for the Advisor or Sub-Advisor and may affect the operations and financial performance of the Fund. These requirements are also subject to change at any time.

n. Cybersecurity Risk

Cybersecurity incidents may allow an unauthorized party to gain access to Fund assets, customer data (including private shareholder information), or proprietary information, or cause each Fund, the Advisor and/or its service providers (including, but not limited to, Fund accountants, custodians, sub-custodians, transfer agents and financial intermediaries) to suffer data breaches, data corruption or lose operational functionality.

o. Investment Company Securities

To the extent a Fund or its Subsidiary invests in securities of other investment companies, including exchange-traded funds, the Fund will bear a proportionate share of the fees and expenses paid by such other investment company, including advisory and administrative fees.

p. Investment Risk

An investor may lose the value of their entire investment or part of their investment in Fund shares.

q. Leverage Risk

To the extent a Fund is exposed directly or indirectly to leverage (through investments in commodities futures contracts) the value of the Fund may be more volatile than if no leverage were present.

r. Liquidity

Generally, only Authorized Participants may redeem Fund shares. Investors other than Authorized Participants wishing to realize their Fund shares will generally need to rely on secondary trading in the public trading market. There can be no assurance as to the price at which, or volume in which, it may at any time be possible to realize Fund shares in the public trading market. Although each Fund’s shares are listed for trading on NYSE Arca, there can be no assurance that an active trading market for such shares will develop or be maintained.

s. Market Trading Risk

There can be no assurance as to the price at which, or volume in which, it may at any time be possible to buy or sell Fund shares in the public trading market. Although the Fund shares are listed for trading on NYSE Arca, there can be no assurance that an active trading market for such shares will develop or be maintained. Although it is expected that the market price of the Fund shares will approximate the Fund’s NAV when purchased and sold in the secondary market, the Fund faces numerous market trading risks, including the potential lack of an active market for shares, disruptions in the securities markets in which the Fund invests, periods of high market volatility and disruptions in the creation/redemption process. Any of these may lead to times when the market price of the Fund shares is more than the NAV intra-day (premium) or less than the NAV intra-day (discount).

t. Non-Diversification Risk

As a “non-diversified” fund, each Fund may hold a smaller number of portfolio securities than many other funds. To the extent a Fund invests in a relatively small number of issuers, a decline in the market value of a particular security held by the Fund may affect its value more than if it invested in a larger number of issuers. The value of Fund shares may be more volatile than the values of shares of more diversified funds. However, each Fund intends to satisfy the asset diversification requirements for classification as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code.

u. Sampling Risk

A Fund’s use of a representative sampling approach may result in it holding a smaller number of instruments than are included in the Index. As a result, an adverse development respecting an investment held by the Fund could result in a greater decline in NAV than would be the case if the Fund held all of the components of the Index. Conversely, a positive development relating to a constituent of the Index that is not held by the Fund could cause the Fund to underperform the Index. To the extent the assets in the Fund are smaller, these risks will be greater. A representative sampling strategy may increase the Fund’s susceptibility to Index Tracking Risk.

v. Shares May Trade at Prices Other than NAV

As with all ETFs, Fund shares may be bought and sold in the secondary market at market prices. Although it is expected that the market price of the Fund shares will approximate the Fund’s NAV when purchased and sold in the secondary market, there may be times when the market price of the Fund shares is more than the NAV intra-day (premium) or less than the NAV intra-day (discount). This risk is heightened in times of market volatility or periods of steep market declines. The market price of a Fund’s shares on an exchange during the trading day, like the price of any exchange-traded security, includes a “bid/ask” spread charged by the exchange specialist, market makers or other participants that trade the Fund’s shares. In times of severe market disruption, the bid/ask spread can increase significantly. At those times, Fund shares are most likely to be traded at a discount to NAV, and the discount is likely to be greatest when the price of Fund shares is falling fastest, which may be the time that you most want to sell your Fund shares. The Advisor believes that, under normal market conditions, large market price discounts or premiums to NAV will not be sustained because of arbitrage opportunities.

w. Subsidiary Investment Risk

Changes in the laws of the United States and/or the Cayman Islands, under which the Funds and the Subsidiaries are organized, respectively, could result in the inability of a Subsidiary to operate as intended and could negatively affect a Fund and its shareholders. Each Subsidiary is not registered under the 1940 Act, and, is not subject to the investor protections of the 1940 Act.

x. Swap Agreements

Swaps can involve greater risks than a direct investment in an underlying asset and these may increase or decrease the overall volatility of a Fund’s investment and its share price. Swaps may be subject to illiquidity risk, and it may not be possible for the Fund to liquidate a swap position at an advantageous time or price, which may result in significant losses. As with other transactions, a Fund will bear the risk that the counterparty will default, which could cause losses to the Fund.

y. Tax Risk

In order to qualify for the favorable U.S. federal income tax treatment accorded to a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, each Fund, must among other requirements, derive at least 90% of its gross income in each taxable year from certain categories of income (“qualifying income”) and must satisfy certain asset diversification requirements. Certain of a Fund’s commodity-related investments, if made directly, will not generate income that is qualifying income. Each Fund intends to hold such commodity-related investments indirectly, through its Subsidiary. Each Fund’s investment in its Subsidiary is expected to provide the Fund with exposure to the commodities markets within the limitations of the federal tax requirements of Subchapter M of the Code for qualification as a RIC. The Advisor and/or Sub-Advisor will carefully monitor each Fund’s investment in its Subsidiary to ensure that no more than 25% of the Fund’s assets are invested in the Subsidiary to ensure compliance with the Fund’s asset diversification test for qualification as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. If a Fund was to fail to meet the qualifying income test or the asset diversification test and fail to qualify as a RIC, it would be taxed in the same manner as an ordinary corporation, and distributions to its shareholders would not be deductible by the Fund in computing its taxable income. The failure by a Fund to qualify as a RIC would have significant negative tax consequences to Fund shareholders and would affect a shareholder’s return on its investment in such Fund. Under certain circumstances, a Fund may be able to cure a failure to meet the qualifying income test or the asset diversification test if such failure was due to reasonable cause and not willful neglect, but in order to do so the Fund may incur significant fund-level taxes, which would effectively reduce (and could eliminate) the Fund’s returns. Each Fund’s strategy of investing through its Subsidiary in commodity-related instruments may cause the Fund to recognize more ordinary income than would be the case if the Fund did not invest through a Subsidiary, resulting in distributions from the Fund that are taxable to individual shareholders at ordinary income tax rates rather than at the more favorable tax rates for long-term capital gains.

z. U.S. Government Securities

U.S. government securities are subject to market and interest rate risk, and may be subject to varying degrees of credit risk. U.S. government securities include inflation-indexed fixed-income securities, such as U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (TIPS). U.S. government securities include zero coupon securities, which tend to be subject to greater market risk than interest-paying securities of similar maturities.

13. Indemnifications

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, the Trustees (and its directors, employees and agents) and the Advisor (and its members, managers, directors, officers, employees and affiliates) are indemnified by the Trust against any liability, cost or expense it incurs without gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on its part and without reckless disregard on its part of its obligations and duties. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred. However, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.

14. Adviser Beneficial Ownership

A person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 25% or more of the voting securities of a Fund may be deemed to “control” (as defined in the 1940 Act) that Fund, and may be able to exercise a controlling influence over any matter submitted to shareholders of that Fund. As of December 31, 2023, the Advisor or its affiliates owned 75.09% of the outstanding shares of the abrdn Bloomberg Industrial Metals Strategy K-1 Free ETF. Accordingly, the Advisor and its affiliates may be deemed to “control” the abrdn Bloomberg Industrial Metals Strategy K-1 Free ETF as of that date.

15. Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated subsequent events for the Funds through the date the financial statements were issued, and has concluded that there were no material subsequent events requiring adjustment to or disclosure in these consolidated financial statements.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2023, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Funds’ auditor since 2017.

As a shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of Fund shares, and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory fees and other Fund expenses. The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.

Actual Expenses

The actual expense examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the six-month period and held through the entire period ended December 31, 2023.

The first line in the following tables provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The hypothetical expense examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the six-month period and held through the entire period ended December 31, 2023.

The second line under each Fund in the following table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as brokerage charges. Therefore, the second line for each Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The Registrant’s Board of Trustees has determined that the Registrant has at least two “audit committee financial experts” (as defined in Item 3 of Form N-CSR), serving on its audit committee. John Sievwright and William M. Thomas are the “audit committee financial experts” and each is “independent” (as each term is defined in Item 3 of Form N-CSR).

Under applicable securities laws and regulations, a person who is determined to be an audit committee financial expert will not be deemed an “expert” for any purpose, including without limitation for purposes of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as a result of being designated or identified as an audit committee financial expert. The designation or identification of a person as an audit committee financial expert does not impose on such person any duties, obligations, or liability that are greater than the duties, obligations, and liability imposed on such person as a member of the Registrant’s Audit Committee and Board of Trustees in the absence of such designation or identification. The designation or identification of a person as an audit committee financial expert does not affect the duties, obligations or liability of any other member of the Registrant’s Audit Committee or Board of Trustees.

(a) – (d) Below is a table reflecting the fee information requested in Items 4(a) through (d):

¹“Audit Fees” are the aggregate fees billed for professional services for the audit of the Registrant’s annual financial statements and services provided in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements. These services include the audits of the financial statements of the Registrant, issuance of consents and assistance with review of documents filed with the SEC.

²“Audit Related Fees” are the aggregate fees billed for assurance and related services reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of financial statements that are not reported under “Audit Fees”.

³“Tax Fees” are the aggregate fees billed for professional services for tax advice, tax compliance, and tax planning. These fees include: federal and state income tax returns, review of excise tax distribution calculations and federal excise tax return.

⁴“All Other Fees” are the aggregate fees billed for products and services other than “Audit Fees”, “Audit-Related Fees” and “Tax Fees”.

⁵Pre-approval exception under Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X. The pre-approval exception for services provided directly to the Fund waives the pre-approval requirement for services other than audit, review or attest services if: (A) the aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes no more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid by the Fund to its accountant during the fiscal year in which the services are provided; (B) the Fund did not recognize the services as non-audit services at the time of the engagement; and (C) the services are promptly brought to the Audit Committee’s attention, and the Committee (or its delegate) approves the services before the audit is completed.

“Non-Audit Fees billed to Funds” for both fiscal years represent “Tax Fees” and “All Other Fees” billed to Funds in their respective amounts from the previous table.

The complete schedule of investments is included in the report to shareholders in Item 1 of this Form N-CSR.
