First Trust Announces March 4, 2024 for Changes in Investment Strategies and Other Related Matters for Large Cap US Equity Select ETF

First Trust Advisors L.P. (“FTA”) announced today that Large Cap US Equity Select ETF (Nasdaq: RNLC) (the “Fund”), a series of First Trust Exchange-Traded Fund VI (the “Trust”), will change its investment objective, name and other related matters, effective March 4, 2024. FTA previously announced that the Fund will seek investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield (before the Fund’s fees and expenses) of an equity index called the Bloomberg Shareholder Yield Index (the “New Index”) on or around a different date, February 29, 2024. Currently, the Fund seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield (before the Fund’s fees and expenses) of an equity index called the Nasdaq Riskalyze US Large Cap™ Index. According to Bloomberg Index Services Limited, the index provider to the New Index, the New Index tracks the performance of US large- and mid-capitalization companies that have a track record of returning value to shareholders through dividends, buybacks and debt reduction in a manner that is within their capacity. The New Index is determined, composed and calculated by Bloomberg Index Services Limited.

Additionally, on or around March 4, 2024, the Fund’s name is expected to change to First Trust Bloomberg Shareholder Yield ETF and its new ticker symbol is expected to be SHRY. The Fund’s CUSIP is not expected to change.
