* Amount shown reflects the expenses of the Fund from inception date through June 30, 2024. Expenses would be higher if the Fund had been in operations for the full year.
HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM LAST YEAR AND WHAT AFFECTED ITS PERFORMANCE?
The Madison Short-Term Strategic Income ETF (NAV) returned 5.71% and (market) 5.74% from its inception through June 30th, 2024. Both outperforming the Bloomberg U.S. 1–5-year government/credit index which returned 4.28%.
The primary drivers of performance were an overweight to risk assets, specifically investment grade and high yield corporate bonds and asset-backed securities (ABS). Performance was also positively impacted by a yield advantage over the benchmark. The largest detractor to performance was the Treasury allocation given the strong risk asset performance. The fund was overweight financials, especially bank bonds maturing in three to five years, which had strong performance relative to other sub-sectors in investment grade corporate bonds. High yield corporate bonds also performed well given strong equity markets and positive economic growth. ABS performed well given attractive spreads and a shorter duration during a period of falling front-end interest rates. Finally, Mortgage Backed Securities performance was mixed as interest rate volatility was elevated and the yield curve continued to be inverted.
HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM SINCE INCEPTION?*
The $10,000 chart reflects a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Fund noted. The chart uses total return NAV and market performance and assumes reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Fund expenses, including management fees and other expenses were deducted.

HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM LAST YEAR AND WHAT AFFECTED ITS PERFORMANCE?
The Madison Aggregate Bond ETF (NAV) returned 4.81% and (market) 4.98% from its inception through June 30th, 2024. Both outperforming the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Index which returned 4.10%.
The primary drivers of performance were an overweight to risk assets, specifically investment grade corporate bonds, higher coupon mortgage-backed securities (MBS) and asset-backed securities (ABS). Performance was also positively impacted by a yield advantage over the benchmark. The largest detractor to performance was the Treasury allocation given a longer duration and a steepening yield curve during the period. The fund was overweight financials, especially bank bonds, which had strong performance relative to other sub-sectors in investment grade corporate bonds. Within the securitized sector, the fund was overweight 4.50% to 5.50% coupon, thirty-year MBS, which outperformed lower-coupon securities. Finally, ABS performed well given attractive spreads and a shorter duration during a period of falling front-end interest rates.

HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM LAST YEAR AND WHAT AFFECTED ITS PERFORMANCE?
The Madison Covered Call ETF (NAV) returned 6.82% and (market) 6.76% from its inception through June 30th, 2024. Both lagged the CBOE S&P BuyWrite Index (BXM) Index which returned 10.30% and the S&P 500 Total Return Index which returned 25.72%.
Even though we understand that equity markets are inherently cyclical, there are periods of cognitive dissonance whereby the vast consensus believes the only direction for stocks is higher. Investors focus on very narrow drivers (Fed rate cuts, “AI”) while ignoring danger signs. That has certainly been the case since November of 2023. With the S&P 500 increasingly dominated by a handful of mega-cap growth stocks, the Fund was unable to keep up with the overall index since that rally began late last year. The Fund entered the year defensively postured as we grew increasingly wary of weakening economic and company fundamentals. A very small number of companies have had an undue influence on performance and perceived earnings growth of the overall index. In reality, this influence can also work in reverse order. Over the period, the Fund’s sector allocation somewhat detracted from performance as the Technology, Communication Services and Consumer Discretionary sectors were slightly underweight the index. These sectors hold the mega-cap growth companies that dominated performance. The Fund was also underweight in those mega-cap growth companies where most of the index performance came from. The Fund’s option overlay also held back performance relative to the S&P 500 Index which is normally the case during periods of strong upward market momentum.

HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM LAST YEAR AND WHAT AFFECTED ITS PERFORMANCE?
For the period from inception through June 30, 2024, the Madison Dividend Value ETF (NAV) returned 2.35% and (market) 2.33%, which compared to the Russell 1000 Value return of 11.00% and the Lipper Equity funds Index return of 12.31%. The two primary factors that impacted performance were dividend stocks had among the lowest returns in the market and were historically out-of-favor vs the index. Additionally, the benchmark had some large Technology holdings that outperformed and don’t pay a dividend and are therefore outside of the fund’s investable universe.

Item 4. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.

 

The registrant has engaged its principal accountant to perform audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services since inception. “Audit services” refer to performing an audit of the registrant’s annual financial statements or services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for those fiscal years. “Audit-related services” refer to the assurance and related services by the principal accountant that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit. “Tax services” refer to professional services rendered by the principal accountant for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning. These services were for the completion of the Funds federal and state income tax returns, excise tax returns, and review of excise tax calculations. “Other services” refer to other services rendered by the registrant’s principal accountant to the registrant other than those reported under the "audit services", "audit-related services", and "tax services”. The following table details the aggregate fees billed or expected to be billed since inception for audit fees, audit-related fees, tax fees and other fees by the principal accountant.

 

  FYE  6/30/2024  
(a) Audit Fees 49,500   
(b) Audit-Related Fees 0
(c) Tax Fees 12,000
(d) All Other Fees 0

 

(e)(1) The audit committee of the registrant has adopted pre-approval policies and procedures that require the audit committee to pre-approve all audit and non-audit services of the registrant, including services provided to any entity affiliated with the registrant. The audit committee may delegate to one or more of its members the authority to grant such pre-approvals. Any decision of any member to whom such authority is delegated shall be presented to the full audit committee at the next regularly scheduled meeting of the registrant’s board of trustees.

 

 

(e)(2) The percentage of fees billed by Cohen & Company, Ltd applicable to non-audit services pursuant to waiver of pre-approval requirement were as follows:

 

  FYE  6/30/2024  
Audit-Related Fees 0%  
Tax Fees 0%  
All Other Fees 0%  

 

(f) Not applicable.

 

(g) The following table indicates the non-audit fees billed or expected to be billed by the registrant’s accountant for services to the registrant and to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant since inception.

 

Non-Audit Related Fees FYE  6/30/2024  
Registrant None  
Registrant’s Investment Adviser None  

 

(h) Because no such non-audit services were rendered, the audit committee of the board of trustees did not consider whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any subadviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X, is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.

Madison ETFs TRUST
Notes to the Financial Statements
June 30, 2024
1. ORGANIZATION
Madison ETFs Trust, a Delaware statutory Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company, registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Trust consists of separate investment portfolios or funds (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”), each of which has a different investment objective and policies. Each Fund is a diversified, open-end management investment company, commonly known as an exchange-traded fund (“ETF”). The Funds in this report as described are as follows:
Fund
Madison Short-Term Strategic Income ETF (“MSTI”)
Madison Aggregate Bond ETF (“MAGG”)
Madison Covered Call ETF (“CVRD”)
Madison Dividend Value ETF (“DIVL”)
The Trust has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with Madison Asset Management, LLC (the “Investment Advisor” or “Madison”), the Funds’ investment advisor. Tidal Investments LLC (f/k/a Toroso Investments, LLC) (“Tidal Investments” or the “Subadvisor”), a Tidal Financial Group company, serves as investment subadvisor to the Funds.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Each Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services – Investment Companies”. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by each Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. These financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Portfolio Valuation: Equity securities, including American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), Global Depository Receipts (“GDRs”) and ETFs listed on any U.S. or foreign stock exchange or quoted on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System (“NASDAQ”) are valued at the last quoted sale price or official closing price on that exchange provided that, for securities traded on NASDAQ, the Funds utilize the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). Debt securities are valued on the basis of last available bid prices or current market quotations provided by dealers or pricing services approved by the Trust. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing services may use certain information with respect to transactions in such investments, quotations from dealers, pricing matrixes, market transactions in comparable investments, various relationships observed in the market between investments and calculated yield measurements based on valuation technology commonly employed in the market for such investments.
Municipal debt securities are traded via a network of dealers and brokers that connect buyers and sellers. They are valued on the basis of last available bid prices or current market quotations provided by dealers or pricing services approved by the Trust. There may be little trading in the secondary market for particular bonds and other debt securities, making them more difficult to value or sell. Asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities are valued by independent pricing services using models that consider estimated cash flows of each tranche of the security, establish a benchmark yield and develop an estimated tranche specific spread to the benchmark yield based on the unique attributes of the tranche.
Investments in shares of open-end mutual funds, including money market funds, are valued at their daily net asset value (“NAV”) which is calculated as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”), usually 4:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on each day on which the NYSE is open for business. NAV per share is
19

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Madison ETFs TRUST

determined by dividing each Fund’s total net assets by the number of shares of such Fund outstanding at the time of calculation. Total net assets are determined by adding the total current value of portfolio securities, cash, receivables, and other assets and subtracting liabilities.
Short-term instruments having maturities of 60 days or less are valued on an amortized cost basis, which approximates fair value.
Over-the-counter securities not listed or traded on NASDAQ are valued at the last sale price on the valuation day. If no sale occurs on the valuation day, an over-the-counter security is valued at the last bid price. Exchange-traded options are valued at the mean of the best bid and ask prices across all option exchanges. Over-the-counter options are valued based upon prices provided by market makers in such securities or dealers in such currencies. Financial futures contracts generally are valued at the settlement price established by the exchange(s) on which the contracts are primarily traded. Spot and forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued based on quotations supplied by dealers in such contracts. Overnight repurchase agreements are valued at cost, and term repurchase agreements (i. e., those whose maturity exceeds seven days), swaps, caps, collars and floors, if any, are valued at the average of the closing bids obtained daily from at least one dealer.
Through the end of this reporting period, the value of all assets and liabilities expressed in foreign currencies was converted into U. S. dollar values using the then-current exchange rate at the close of regular trading on the NYSE.
All other securities for which either quotations are not readily available, no other sales have occurred, or in the Investment Advisor’s opinion, do not reflect the current fair value, are appraised at their fair values as determined in good faith by the Pricing Committee (the “Committee”) and under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. When fair value pricing of securities is employed, the prices of securities used by the Funds to calculate NAV may differ from market quotations or NOCP.
Security Transactions and Investment Income: Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Net realized gains or losses on sales are determined by the identified cost method. Net realized gain on investments in the Statements of Operations also includes realized gain distributions received from the underlying exchange listed funds. Dividend income is recorded on ex-dividend date, except that certain dividends from foreign securities may be recorded after the ex-dividend date based on when the Funds are informed of the dividend. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and is increased by the accretion of discount and decreased by the amortization of premium. Amortization and accretion are recorded on the effective yield method.
Expenses: Expenses that are directly related to one Fund are charged directly to that Fund. The majority of each Fund’s expenses are borne by Madison under its investment advisory agreement with the Funds.
COVERED CALL AND PUT OPTIONS
An option on a security is a contract that gives the holder of the option, in return for a premium, the right to buy from (in the case of a call) or sell to (in the case of a put) the writer of the option the security underlying the option at a specified exercise or “strike” price. The writer of an option on a security has an obligation upon exercise of the option to deliver the underlying security upon payment of the exercise price (in the case of a call) or pay the exercise price upon delivery of the underlying security (in the case of a put).
The Covered Call ETF pursues its primary objective by employing an option strategy of writing (selling) covered call options on common stocks. The number of call options the Fund can write (sell) is limited by the amount of equity securities the Fund holds in its portfolio. The Fund will not write (sell) “naked” or uncovered call options. The Fund seeks to produce a high level of current income and gains generated from option writing premiums and, to a lesser extent, from dividends. Covered call writing also helps to reduce volatility (and risk profile) of the Fund by providing protection from declining stock prices.
When an option is written, the premium received is recorded as an asset with an equal liability and is subsequently marked to market to reflect the current fair value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as options written in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Premiums received from writing options which expire unexercised are recorded on the expiration date as a realized gain. The difference between the premium received and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain, or if the
20

premium is less than the amount paid for the closing purchase transactions, as a realized loss. If a call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security in determining whether there has been a realized gain or loss. See Note 4 for information on derivatives.
Cash Concentration: At times, the Funds maintain cash balances at financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits. The Funds monitor this credit risk and have not experienced any losses related to this risk.
Delayed Delivery Securities: Each Fund may purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. “When-issued” refers to securities whose terms are available and for which a market exists, but that have not been issued. For when-issued or delayed delivery transactions, no payment is made until delivery date, which is typically longer than the normal course of settlement. When a fund enters into an agreement to purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis, a fund may segregate cash or other liquid securities, of any type or maturity, equal in value to a fund’s commitment. Losses may arise due to changes in the fair value of the underlying securities, if the counterparty does not perform under the contract, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic or other factors. As of June 30, 2024, none of the Funds had entered into such transactions.
Indemnifications: Under the Funds’ organizational documents, the Funds’ officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum liability exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as future claims that have not yet occurred may be made against the Funds. However, based on experience, management expects the risk of loss to be remote.
3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Each Fund has adopted the FASB guidance on fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that each Fund would receive upon selling an investment in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the investment. A three-tier hierarchy is used to maximize the use of observable market data “inputs” and minimize the use of unobservable “inputs” and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk (for example, the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value including such a pricing model and/or the risk inherent in the inputs used in the valuation technique). Inputs may be observable or unobservable.
Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below:
Level 1 – 
unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments that the Funds have the ability to access
Level 2 – 
other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rate volatilities, prepayment speeds, credit risk, benchmark yields, transactions, bids, offers, new issues, spreads, and other relationships observed in the markets among comparable securities, underlying equity of the issuer; and proprietary pricing models such as yield measures calculated using factors such as cash flows, financial or collateral performance, and other reference data, etc .)
Level 3 – 
significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
The valuation techniques used by the Funds to measure fair value for the period ended June 30, 2024, maximized the use of observable inputs, and minimized the use of unobservable inputs. The Funds estimated the price that would have prevailed in a liquid market for an international equity security given information available at the time of valuation. As of June 30, 2024, none of the Funds held securities deemed as a Level 3, and there were no transfers between classification levels.

Madison ETFs TRUST
Notes to the Financial Statements
June 30, 2024(Continued)
Subadvisory Agreement. The Subadvisor serves as subadvisor, pursuant to the sub-advisory agreement between the Advisor and the Subadvisor (the “Subadvisory Agreement”). Pursuant to the Subadvisory agreement, the Subadvisor is responsible for among other things, trading portfolio securities (DIVL and CVRD) and performing related services, and providing tax optimization services, subject to the supervision of the Advisor and the Board. For its services, the Subadvisor is paid a fee by the Advisor, which fee is calculated daily and paid monthly. The Subadvisor currently waives this fee for MSTI and MAGG.
Distribution Agreement. MFD Distributor, LLC (the “Distributor”) acts as the Funds’ principal underwriter in a continuous public offering of the Funds’ shares.
Other Expenses: The Funds are responsible for paying: (i) interest charges on any borrowings made for investment purposes, (ii) dividends and other expenses on securities sold short, (iii) taxes, (iv) brokerage commissions and other expenses incurred in placing orders for the purchase and sale of securities and other investment instruments, (v) acquired fund fees and expenses, (vi) accrued deferred tax liability, (vii) distribution fees and expenses paid by the Fund under any distribution plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, (viii) litigation expenses, and other non-routine or extraordinary expenses. The Advisor and Subadvisor have voluntarily reimbursed CVRD for interest expense of $28,908 and $28,907, respectively. The amounts reimbursed are not recoverable by the Advisor and Subadvisor.
Officers and Trustees: Certain officers and a trustee of the Funds are also officers of the Investment Advisor. The Funds do not compensate their officers or affiliated trustees. Independent Trustees are compensated out of the funds’ unitary management fee.
6. DIVIDENDS FROM NET INCOME AND DISTRIBUTIONS OF CAPITAL GAINS
With respect to dividends from net investment income, MSTI, MAGG, and DIVL declare and reinvest dividends, if any, monthly. CVRD declares and reinvests dividends, if any, quarterly. The Funds distribute net realized gains from investment transactions, if any, to shareholders annually. Distributions are recorded on each Fund’s ex-distribution date.
Income and capital gain distributions, if any, are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Taxable distributions from income and realized capital gains in the Funds differ from book amounts earned during the period due to differences in the timing of capital gains recognition, and due to the reclassification of certain gains or losses from capital to income.
7. SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS
For the periods ended June 30, 2024, aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities, other than short-term investment, were as follows:

9. PRINCIPAL RISKS
Call Risk. If a bond issuer “calls” a bond held by the Fund (i. e., pays it off at a specified price before it matures), the Fund could have to reinvest the proceeds at a lower interest rate. It may also experience a loss if the bond is called at a price lower than what the Fund paid for the bond.
Counterparty Risk. Fund transactions involving a counterparty are subject to the risk that the counterparty will not fulfill its obligation to the Fund. Counterparty risk may arise because of the counterparty’s financial condition (i. e., financial difficulties, bankruptcy, or insolvency), market activities and developments, or other reasons, whether foreseen or not. A counterparty’s inability to fulfill its obligation may result in significant financial loss to the Fund. The Fund may be unable to recover its investment from the counterparty or may obtain a limited recovery, and/or recovery may be delayed.
Covered Call Strategy Risk. As the writer of a covered call option, the Fund forgoes, during the option’s life, the opportunity to profit from increases in the market value of the security covering the call option above the sum of the premium and the strike price of the call, but has retained the risk of loss should the price of the underlying security decline. There can be no assurance that a liquid market will exist when the Fund seeks to close out an option position. If the Fund were unable to close out a covered call option that it had written on a security, it would not be able to sell the underlying security unless the option expired without exercise. The Fund will have no control over the exercise of the option by the option holder and may lose the benefit from any capital appreciation on the underlying security. A number of factors may influence the option holder’s decision to exercise the option, including the value of the underlying security, price volatility, dividend yield and interest rates. To the extent that these factors increase the value of the call option, the option holder is more likely to exercise the option, which may negatively affect the Fund.
Covered Put Strategy Risk. As the writer of a covered put option, the Fund bears the risk of loss if the value of the underlying stock declines below the exercise price. If the put option is exercised, the Fund could incur a loss if it is required to purchase the stock underlying the put option at a price greater than the market price of the stock at the time of exercise. Additionally, while the Fund’s potential gain in writing a covered put option is limited to the interest earned on the liquid assets securing the put option plus the premium received from the purchaser of the put option, the Fund risks a loss equal to the entire value of the stock. If a put option purchased by the Fund is not sold when it has remaining value, and if the market price of the underlying security remains equal to or greater than the exercise price, the Fund will lose its entire investment in the option.
Credit Risk. The risk that the issuer of a security, or the counterparty to a contract, will default or otherwise not honor a financial obligation, including that the issuer of a debt security will be unable to meet its interest or principal payment obligations when due.
Debt Securities Risk. Investments in debt securities subject the holder to the credit risk of the issuer. Credit risk refers to the possibility that the issuer or other obligor of a security will not be able or willing to make payments of interest and principal when due. Generally, the value of debt securities will change inversely with changes in interest rates. To the extent that interest rates rise, certain underlying obligations may be paid off substantially slower than originally anticipated and the value of those securities may fall sharply. During periods of falling interest rates, the income received by the Fund may decline. If the principal on a debt security is prepaid before expected, the prepayments of principal may have to be reinvested in obligations paying interest at lower rates. Debt securities generally do not trade on a securities exchange making them generally less liquid and more difficult to value than common stock.
Depository Receipt Risk. Depository receipts, such as American depository receipts (“ADRs”), global depository receipts (“GDRs”), and European depository receipts (“EDRs”), may be issued in sponsored or un-sponsored programs. In a sponsored program, a security issuer has made arrangements to have its securities traded in the form of depository receipts. In an un-sponsored program, the issuer may not be directly involved in the creation of the program. Depository receipts involve many of the same risks as direct investments in foreign securities. These risks include, but are not limited to, fluctuations in currency exchange rates, which are affected by international balances of payments and other financial conditions; government interventions; and speculation. With respect to certain foreign countries, there is the possibility of expropriation or nationalization of assets, confiscatory taxation, political and social upheaval, and economic instability. Investments in depository receipts that are traded over the counter may also be subject to liquidity risk.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Madison ETFs TRUST
Notes to the Financial Statements
June 30, 2024(Continued)
Derivatives Risk. The risk that loss may result from investments in options, forwards, futures, swaps and other derivatives instruments. These instruments may be illiquid, difficult to price and leveraged so that small changes in the value of the underlying instruments may produce disproportionate losses to the Fund. Derivatives are also subject to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the other party to the transaction will not fulfill its contractual obligations.
Equity Risk. The risk that securities held by the Fund will fluctuate in value due to general market or economic conditions, perceptions regarding the industries in which the issuers of securities held by the Fund participate, and the circumstances and performance of companies whose securities the Fund holds. In addition, while broad market measures of common stocks have historically generated higher average returns than fixed income securities, common stocks have also experienced significantly more volatility in those returns.
ETF Risks. The Fund may invest in other investment companies, including other ETFs. The Fund will experience similar risks with respect its holdings in ETFs as investing in a portfolio of equity securities or other investments underlying the ETF, although lack of liquidity in an ETF could result in it being more volatile than the underlying securities. Additionally, the market prices of ETFs will fluctuate in accordance with both changes in the market value of their underlying portfolio securities and due to supply and demand for the instruments on the exchanges on which they are traded (which may result in their trading at a discount or premium to their net asset values). Index-based ETF investments may not replicate exactly the performance of their specific index because of transaction costs and because of the temporary unavailability of certain component securities of the index. Actively-managed ETFs may not produce the desired result of its investment objective(s), meet relevant benchmarks or perform as well as other funds with similar objectives. As a shareholder in other ETFs, the Fund bears its proportionate share of each ETF’s expenses, subjecting Fund shareholders to duplicative expenses.
Extension Risk. Extension risk is the risk that, when interest rates rise, certain obligations will be paid off by the issuer (or other obligated party) more slowly than anticipated, causing the value of these debt securities to fall. Rising interest rates tend to extend the duration of debt securities, making their market value more sensitive to changes in interest rates. The value of longer-term debt securities generally changes more in response to changes in interest rates than shorter-term debt securities. As a result, in a period of rising interest rates, securities may exhibit additional volatility and may lose value.
Foreign Security and Emerging Market Risk. Investments in foreign securities, including investments in ADRs and emerging market securities, involve risks relating to currency fluctuations and to political, social, and economic developments abroad, as well as risks resulting from differences between the regulations to which U. S. and foreign issuers and markets are subject. These risks may be greater in emerging markets. The investment markets of emerging countries are generally more volatile than markets of developed countries with more mature economies.
Growth Investing Risk. The Fund may invest in common stocks issued by companies which, based upon their higher-than-average price-to-book ratios, are expected to experience greater earnings growth rates relative to other companies in the same industry or the economy as a whole. Securities of growth companies may be more volatile than other stocks. If the perception of a company’s growth potential is not realized, the securities purchased may not perform as expected. In addition, because different types of stocks tend to shift in and out of favor depending on market and economic conditions, growth stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and other types of securities.
Income Risk. A security’s income may decline when interest rates fall or if there are defaults in its portfolio. This decline can occur because an underlying security may subsequently invest in lower-yielding securities as debt securities in its portfolio mature, are near maturity or are called, or the underlying security otherwise needs to purchase additional debt securities.
Inflation Risk. Inflation risk is the risk that the value of assets or income from investments will be less in the future as inflation decreases the value of money. As inflation increases, the present value of the Fund’s assets and distributions may decline.
Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of the debt securities in an underlying security’s portfolio will decline because of rising market interest rates. Interest rate risk is generally lower for shorter term debt securities and higher for longer-term debt securities. Typically, a rise in interest rates causes a decline in the market value of income-bearing securities. When interest rates rise, bond prices fall; generally, the longer a bond›s maturity, the
27

Notes to the Financial Statements
June 30, 2024(Continued)
more sensitive it is to this risk. Duration is a reasonably accurate measure of a debt security’s price sensitivity to changes in interest rates and a common measure of interest rate risk. Duration measures a debt security’s expected life on a present value basis, taking into account the debt security’s yield, interest payments and final maturity. In general, duration represents the expected percentage change in the value of a security for an immediate 1% change in interest rates. For example, the price of a debt security with a three-year duration would be expected to drop by approximately 3% in response to a 1% increase in interest rates. Therefore, prices of debt securities with shorter durations tend to be less sensitive to interest rate changes than debt securities with longer durations. As the value of a debt security changes over time, so will its duration.
Market Risk. The share price of the Fund reflects the value of the securities it holds. If a security’s price falls, the share price of the Fund will go down (unless another security’s price rises by an offsetting amount). If the Fund’s share price falls below the price you paid for your shares, you could lose money when you redeem your shares.
Mid Cap Risk. The Fund’s investments in midsize companies may entail greater risks than investments in larger, more established companies. Mid-capitalization companies tend to have narrower product lines, fewer financial resources, and a more limited trading market for their securities, as compared to larger companies. They may also experience greater price volatility than securities of larger capitalization companies because growth prospects for these companies may be less certain and the market for such securities may be smaller. Some growth-oriented companies may not have established financial histories; often have limited product lines, markets, or financial resources; may depend on a few key personnel for management; and may be susceptible to losses and risks of bankruptcy.
Mortgage-Backed Securities Risk. The Fund may own obligations backed by mortgages issued by a government agency or through a government-sponsored program. If the mortgage holders prepay principal during a period of falling interest rates, the Fund could be exposed to prepayment risk. In that case, the Fund would have to reinvest the proceeds at a lower interest rate. The security itself may not increase in value with the corresponding drop-in rates since the prepayment acts to shorten the maturity of the security.
New Fund Risk. The Fund is new and has no performance history or assets as of the date of this prospectus. The Fund expects to have fewer assets than larger funds. Like other new funds, large inflows and outflows may impact the Fund’s market exposure, and in turn, the Fund’s returns for limited periods of time.
Non-Investment Grade Security Risk. To the extent that the Fund invests in non-investment grade securities, the Fund is also subject to above-average credit, market and other risks. Issuers of non-investment grade securities (i. e., “junk” bonds) are typically in weak financial health and their ability to pay interest and principal is uncertain. Compared to issuers of investment grade bonds, they are more likely to encounter financial difficulties and to be materially affected by these difficulties when they do encounter them. “Junk” bond markets may react strongly to adverse news about an issuer or the economy, or to the perception or expectation of adverse news.
Options Risk. Options are derivatives that give the purchaser the option to buy (call) or sell (put) an underlying reference from or to a counterparty at a specified price (the strike price) on or before an expiration date. The use of options involves investment strategies and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions and depends on the ability of the Subadvisor to forecast market movements correctly. The prices of options are volatile and are influenced by, among other things, actual and anticipated changes in the value of the underlying securities, changes in interest or currency exchange rates (including anticipated volatility), which in turn are affected by fiscal and monetary policies and by national and international political and economic events, and the remaining time to the options› expiration. At times, there may be significant differences between the securities and options markets that could result in an imperfect correlation between these markets. Additionally, the trading hours for options may not conform to the hours during which the underlying securities are traded. To the extent that the options markets close before the markets for the underlying securities, significant price and rate movements can take place in the underlying markets that cannot be reflected in the options markets. The Fund’s options transactions will be subject to limitations established by each of the exchanges, boards of trade or other trading facilities on which such options are traded. There can be no assurance that a liquid market will exist when the Fund seeks to close out an option position. The number of options which the Fund may write or purchase may be affected by options written or purchased by other clients of Madison or its affiliates.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Madison ETFs TRUST
Notes to the Financial Statements
June 30, 2024(Continued)
Prepayment Risk. The risk that the issuer of a debt security will repay principal prior to the scheduled maturity date. Debt securities allowing prepayment may offer less potential for gains during a period of declining interest rates, as an underlying security may be required to reinvest the proceeds of any prepayment at lower interest rates. These factors may cause the value of an investment in an underlying security to change.
Restricted Securities Risk. Restricted securities are securities that cannot be offered for public resale unless registered under the applicable securities laws or that have a contractual restriction that prohibits or limits their resale. The Fund may be unable to sell a restricted security on short notice or may be able to sell them only at a price below current value.
Risk of Default. Although Madison monitors the condition of bond issuers, it is still possible that unexpected events could cause the issuer to be unable to pay either principal or interest on its bond. This could cause the bond to go into default and lose value. Some federal agency securities are not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States, so in the event of default, the Fund would have to look to the agency issuing the bond for ultimate repayment.
Valuation Risk. The price the Fund could receive upon the sale of a security or other asset may differ from the Fund’s valuation of the security or other asset, particularly for securities or other assets that trade in low volume or volatile markets or that are valued using a fair value methodology as a result of trade suspensions or for other reasons. In addition, the value of the securities or other assets in the Fund’s portfolio may change on days or during time periods when shareholders will not be able to purchase or sell the Fund’s shares.
Value Investing Risk. The Fund may invest in common stocks issued by companies which, based upon their lower-than-average price-to-book ratios, are believed to be undervalued or inexpensive relative to other companies in the same industry or the economy as a whole. These common stocks are considered undervalued or inexpensive on the basis of the issuer’s business and economic fundamentals or the securities’ current and projected credit profiles, relative to current market price. Such securities are subject to the risk of misestimating certain fundamental factors and will generally underperform during periods when value style investments are out of favor.
The principal risks are presented in alphabetical order to facilitate finding particular risks and comparing them with those of other funds. Each risk summarized above is considered a “principal risk” of investing in the Funds, regardless of the order in which it appears. As with any investment, there is a risk that you could lose all or a portion of your investment in a Fund. Some or all of these risks may adversely affect a Fund’s NAV per share, trading price, yield, total return and/or ability to meet its investment objective. The above risks could affect the value of your performance in the Funds: The risks above apply to each Fund as indicated in the following table. The number of risk factors applicable to a Fund does not necessarily correlate to the overall risk of an investment in that Fund.

10. SHARE TRANSACTIONS
Shares of the Funds are listed and traded on the Exchange. Market prices for the shares may be different from their NAV. The Funds issue and redeem shares on a continuous basis at NAV generally in large blocks of shares (“Creation Units”). Creation Units are issued and redeemed principally in-kind for securities included in a specified universe. Once created, shares generally trade in the secondary market at market prices that change throughout the day. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares are not redeemable securities of the Funds. Creation Units may only be purchased or redeemed by Authorized Participants. An Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker dealer or other participant in the clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a Depository Trust Company participant and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with the Distributor. Most retail investors do not qualify as Authorized Participants nor have the resources to buy and sell whole Creation Units. Therefore, they are unable to purchase or redeem the shares directly from the Funds. Rather, most retail investors may purchase shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a broker and are subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees.
The Funds currently offer one class of shares, which has no front-end sales load, no deferred sales charge, and no redemption fee. A fixed transaction fee is imposed for the transfer and other transaction costs associated with the purchase or sale of Creation Units. The standard fixed transaction fee for the Fund is $300, payable to the Custodian. The fixed transaction fee may be waived on certain orders if the Funds’ Custodian has determined to waive some or all of the costs associated with the order or another party, such as the Advisor, has agreed to pay such fee. In addition, a variable fee may be charged on all cash transactions or substitutes for Creation Units of up to a maximum of 2% of the value of the Creation Units subject to the transaction. Variable fees are imposed to compensate the Funds for transaction costs associated with the cash transactions. Variable fees received by the Funds, if any, are disclosed in the capital shares transactions section of the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. The Funds may issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, with no par value. All shares of the Funds have equal rights and privileges.
11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Management has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events on the Funds through the date the financial statements were available for issue. MSTI, MAGG, and DIVL declared a distribution from net investment income on securities. There were no other events that have taken place that meet the definition of subsequent events that require adjustment to, or disclosure in the financial statements.

Basis for Opinion
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 June 30, 2024, 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 2023.
