GREENWICH, Conn., June 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Due to their inability to attract sufficient investment assets, the Board of Trustees of the Themes ETF Trust (the “Board”) has decided to liquidate and close five ETFs (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”). The Board concluded that liquidating and closing the Funds would be in the best interest of the Funds and their shareholders. The Funds closing are as follows:
Leverage Shares 2X Capped Accelerated TSLA Monthly ETF
Ticker: TSLO CUSIP: 88340C602
Leverage Shares 2X Capped Accelerated PLTR Monthly ETF
Ticker: PLOO CUSIP: 88340C503
Leverage Shares 2X Capped Accelerated NVDA Monthly
ETF Ticker: NVDO CUSIP:88340C404
Leverage Shares 2X Capped Accelerated MSTR Monthly ETF
Ticker: MSOO CUSIP: 88340C305
Leverage Shares 2X Capped Accelerated COIN Monthly ETF
Ticker: COIO CUSIP: 88340C206
The Funds will cease trading on Cboe and will be closed to purchase by investors as of the close of regular trading on Cboe on June 16, 2026 (the “Closing Date”). The Funds will not accept creation orders after the Closing Date.
Shareholders may sell their holdings in either Fund prior to the Closing Date and customary brokerage charges may apply to these transactions. However, from June 16, 2026 through June 25, 2026 (the “Liquidation Date”) shareholders may only be able to sell their shares to certain broker-dealers and there is no assurance that there will be a market for a Fund’s shares during this time period. This process will result in each Fund increasing its cash holdings and reducing its exposure to the underlying stock and related financial instruments. Consequently, each Fund will no longer be pursuing its investment objective of providing leveraged exposure to the daily performance of its underlying stock, which is inconsistent with the Fund’s principal investment strategy.
On or about the Liquidation Date, each Fund will liquidate its assets and distribute cash pro rata to all shareholders who have not previously redeemed or sold their shares. These distributions are taxable events. In addition, these payments to shareholders may include accrued capital gains and dividends. As calculated on the Liquidation Date, each Fund’s net asset value will reflect the costs of closing the Fund. Once the distributions are complete, the Funds will terminate.

Investing in Bitcoin exposes investors significant risks that are not typically present in other investments. Please see prospectus for full information.
The prospectus relates to the Funds listed above (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”). Each Fund seeks to provide the following predetermined outcomes (the “Outcomes”) for an investment that is held for an entire Outcome Period:
(1) the Accelerated Return, which is based on the upside share price return of an underlying security (the “Underlying Stock”) and is subject to the Approximate Cap, and (2) approximately the same downside performance of the Underlying Stock. Please see below for the definitions of key terms.
Outcome Period: A full calendar month (e.g., January 1 – January 31) –
Accelerated Return: Approximately twice the share price increase experienced by the Underlying Stock over the Outcome Period
Approximate Cap: The approximate upside limit on the Accelerated Return during the Outcome Period, which will reset at the start of each Outcome Period
The Fund seeks to provide certain pre-determined outcomes (the “Outcomes”) based on the performance of the share price of the Underlying Stock for investors who hold Fund shares over a full calendar month (the “Outcome Period”). The Outcomes sought by the Fund are:
Approximately twice the share price return of the Underlying Stock (the “Accelerated Return”), up to an approximate upside limit (the “Approximate Cap”), and;
Downside performance that approximately tracks the negative share price return of the Underlying Stock
The Accelerated Return and the Approximate Cap may not operate as anticipated, and investors may lose some or all of their money.
The Outcomes apply only to shares that are held for an entire Outcome Period.
An investor who buys Fund shares after the start of an Outcome Period or who sells shares before the end of an Outcome Period may not fully realize the Accelerated Return and may be exposed to greater losses than that of the Underlying Stock. An investment in the Fund is appropriate only for investors willing to bear those losses.
The Fund does not provide a buffer against losses experienced by the Underlying Stock. An investment in the Fund is appropriate only for investors willing to bear those losses.
The Approximate Cap is provided prior to taking into account any fees or expenses charged to the Fund or shareholder transaction fees. Fees and any expenses will reduce the Approximate Cap amount for Fund shareholders for an Outcome Period.
The Approximate Cap will likely change for each Outcome Period and will be announced at the start of each Outcome Period.
Visit the Funds’ pages on leverageshares.com/us/ for information about the start date and end date of the current Outcome Period, the Approximate Cap for the current Outcome Period and the potential outcomes of an investment in the Funds, including the remaining Approximate Cap.
