First Eagle Investments to Transfer Two Active Equity ETFs to New York Stock Exchange from NYSE Arca

Move will enhance trading experience for investors in First Eagle’s Global Equity and Overseas Equity ETFs

First Eagle Investments (“First Eagle”) today announced the transfer of its two active equity exchange-traded funds (ETFs)—First Eagle Global Equity ETF (FEGE) and First Eagle Overseas Equity ETF (FEOE)—from NYSE Arca, Inc. to the New York Stock Exchange LLC (NYSE), effective May 1, 2025. The move is expected to enhance the trading experience for investors in both funds.

“By transitioning to the NYSE floor model, the ETFs benefit from both its premier trading technology and the oversight of experienced market professionals,” said Jay Lisowski, Head of Product Management and Development at First Eagle Investments. "Having a designated market maker provides an additional layer of support that can improve execution quality for investors."

Both ETFs reflect First Eagle’s benchmark-agnostic, fundamental approach to value investing, grounded in deep bottom-up research and a long-term capital preservation mindset.

• First Eagle Global Equity ETF (FEGE) actively invests at least 80% of assets in equity securities of US and non-US issuers, with a minimum of 40% allocated to non-US companies under normal market conditions.
• First Eagle Overseas Equity ETF (FEOE) is focused primarily on international opportunities, with at least 80% of assets invested in non-US equities under normal market conditions.

The ETFs are managed by members of First Eagle’s Global Value team, including Co-Heads Matt McLennan and Kimball Brooker alongside Portfolio Managers Julien Albertini, Manish Gupta, Adrian Jones, Alan Barr and Christian Heck.

Ticker symbols for both ETFs will remain unchanged. The listing transfer is not expected to impact trading of the funds or affect shareholders. No action is required from shareholders in connection with the listing transfer.

An investor should consider the investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses of the First Eagle ETFs carefully before investing.

Investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible.

The First Eagle ETFs may hold foreign securities and cash with foreign banks, agents, and securities depositories appointed by the Fund’s custodian (each a “Foreign Custodian”). Some Foreign Custodians may be recently organized or new to the foreign custody business. The ETFs may invest in foreign investments (including American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), Global Depositary Receipts (“GDRs”) and European Depositary Receipts (“EDRs”)). Foreign investments, which can be denominated in any applicable foreign currency, are susceptible to less politically, economically and socially stable environments, foreign currency and exchange rate changes, and adverse changes to government regulations.

To the extent the First Eagle ETFs invest in other investment companies, including money market funds and ETFs, its performance will be affected by the performance of those other investment companies. The First Eagle ETFs may invest in small and medium-size companies, the securities of which can be more volatile in price than those of larger companies. An investment made at a perceived “margin of safety” or “discount to intrinsic or fundamental value” can trade at prices substantially lower than when an investment is made, so that any perceived “margin of safety” or “discount to value” is no guarantee against loss.

The First Eagle ETFs may invest in privately issued securities of domestic common and preferred stock, convertible debt securities, and ADRs, including those which may be resold only in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Privately issued securities are restricted securities that are not publicly traded. Delay or difficulty in selling such securities may result in a loss to the First Eagle ETFs. Cybersecurity risk is the risk of an unauthorized breach and access to ETF assets, ETF or customer data (including private shareholder information), or proprietary information, or the risk of an incident occurring that causes the First Eagle ETFs, their investment adviser, their investment sub-adviser, custodian, transfer agent, distributor and other service providers and financial intermediaries to suffer data breaches, data corruption or lose operational functionality or prevent ETF investors from purchasing, redeeming or exchanging shares or receiving distributions.

As with all ETFs, shares may be bought and sold in the secondary market at market prices.

The First Eagle ETFs are distributed by Quasar Distributors, LLC.
