FAQ

Why Neutral?

A reverse split typically maintains market cap but may impact liquidity. Historical precedents show minimal long-term price movement from splits, keeping investors focused on performance.

How important is it?

The reverse split impacts share structure and investor strategy but maintains principal value. Traders may reassess strategy around the split timing, creating temporary volatility.

Why Short Term?

The immediate effect is near the split date, likely leading to price adjustments. Long-term effects depend on subsequent market performance of gold miners.

, /PRNewswire/ - Bank of Montreal ("BMO") announced today that it will implement a 1-for-20 reverse split of its outstanding MicroSectorsTM Gold Miners -3X Inverse Leveraged Exchange Traded Notes due June 29, 2040 (the "ETNs"), expected to be effective as of October 22, 2025. The table below summarizes the reverse split. ETN Title Ticker Symbol Reverse Split Ratio Current CUSIP / New CUSIP MicroSectorsTM Gold Miners -3X Inverse ETNs GDXD 1-for-20 06367V600 /  06367V709 The reverse split is expected to be effective at the open of trading on October 22, 2025 (the "Effective Date"). The ETNs are expected to begin trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc. on a reverse split-adjusted basis on the Effective Date. Holders of the ETNs who purchased the ETNs prior to the Effective Date will receive one reverse split-adjusted ETN for every twenty pre-reverse split ETNs they hold. In addition, investors that hold a number of ETNs not evenly divisible by twenty will receive a cash payment for any fractional ETNs remaining (the "Partials"). The cash payment due on any Partials is expected to be determined on October 27, 2025 and will equal, for each remaining ETN, its closing Indicative Note Value on that date. BMO will make any cash payment due on any Partials in accordance with its standard procedures through The Depository Trust Company, and expects that these amounts will be paid to holders on or about October 30, 2025. Investors should note that the timing of crediting amounts to their accounts will depend on the processing by their brokers or other intermediaries. The closing Indicative Note Value of the ETNs on October 21, 2025 will be multiplied by twenty (20) to determine the reverse split-adjusted closing Indicative Note Value of the ETNs. Following the reverse split, the ETNs will have a new CUSIP but will continue to trade under the current ticker symbol. The reverse split will affect the trading denominations of the ETNs, but it will not have any effect on the aggregate principal amount of the ETNs, except that the aggregate principal amount will be reduced by the corresponding aggregate amount of any cash payments for any Partials. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the ETN Prospectus (as defined below). Illustration of a Reverse Split The following table shows the effect of a hypothetical 1-for-20 reverse split based on a hypothetical number of ETNs held and a hypothetical closing Indicative Note Value for the ETNs. The closing Indicative Note Value of the ETN is not the same as the trading price of the ETNs. Number of ETNs Held Hypothetical Closing Indicative Note Value Aggregate Closing Note Indicative Value Pre-Reverse Split 100,000 $5.00 per ETN $500,000 Post 1-for-20 Reverse Split 5,000 $100.00 per ETN $500,000 Disclosures The ETNs are not intended to be "buy and hold" investments, and are not intended to be held to maturity. Instead, the ETNs are intended to be daily trading tools for sophisticated investors to manage daily trading risks as part of an overall diversified portfolio. The ETNs are designed to reflect a 3x leveraged short exposure to the performance of the S-Network MicroSectorsTM Gold Miners Index (the "Index") on a daily basis, before taking into account the negative effect of the fees and charges. However, due to the daily resetting leverage, the returns on the ETNs over different periods of time can, and most likely will, differ significantly from three times the return on a direct short investment in the Index. The ETNs are designed to achieve their stated investment objectives on a daily basis. The performance of the ETNs over different periods of time can differ significantly from their stated daily objectives. The ETNs are considerably riskier than securities that have intermediate- or long-term investment objectives, and are not suitable for investors who plan to hold them for a period of more than one day or who have a "buy and hold" strategy. Investors should actively and continuously monitor their investments in the ETNs on an intraday basis, and any decision to hold the ETNs for more than one day should be made with great care and only as the result of a series of daily (or more frequent) investment decisions to remain invested in the ETNs for the next one-day period. The ETNs are very sensitive to changes in the level of the Index, and returns on the ETNs may be negatively impacted in complex ways by the volatility of the Index on a daily or intraday basis. It is possible that you will suffer significant losses in the ETNs even if the long-term performance of the Index is negative. Accordingly, the ETNs should be purchased only by sophisticated investors who understand and can bear the potential risks and consequences of the ETNs that are designed to provide leveraged exposure to the short performance of the Index on a daily basis and that will be highly volatile and may experience significant losses, up to the entire amount invested, in a short period of time. For additional information, including a discussion of the risks relating to an investment in the ETNs, please carefully read the pricing supplement and related documents that we have filed with respect to the ETNs (collectively, the "ETN Prospectus").
