THEMATIC GROWTH: 5G, CLOUD COMPUTING, AND E-COMMERCE

(1)www.researchandmarkets.com

THE NEW TECHNOLOGY REVOLUTIONBuzz words like 5G, the Internet of Things, and the Cloud have been discussed for years. It is not until recently that this technology has started to take shape.

Internet of Things

AI

E-Commerce

Autonomous Vehicles

The Cloud5G

Streaming

• Internet of Things – the interconnection between everyday objects and your computing devices. Your doorbell ringing can now be announced through your Amazon Alexa or through an app on your phone.• Autonomous Vehicles – a self-driving car that may not even need a human inside to operate.• Artificial Intelligence – robots, computer systems, or other inanimate objects soon will have the ability to perform human tasks.• The Cloud – a place where data is stored and accessed by internet users.• E-Commerce – the online presence of buying, delivering and selling goods.• 5G – fifth generation wireless will allow for larger amounts of data to be transported in shorter amounts of time.• Streaming – the act of downloading or receiving data, specifically audio and video material, over an internet network continuously while the video plays.

TO SUPPORT THIS INTERNET DEMAND:

• 5G speeds will be 13 times higher than the average mobile connection by 2023. The average 5G connection speed will reach 575 Mbps by 2023.

THE INTERNET BY 2022

• $230 Billion Global Data Center Infrastructure market is projected to grow at a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of 6.79% reaching a total market size of US$230.169 billion in 2025 from US$155.201 billion in 2019.1 • $325 Billion Increase in infrastructure spending for 5G by 2025

THE ECOSYSTEM OF TECHNOLOGY’S MISSION CRITICAL ASSETS

The economy relies on an increasingly sophisticated foundation of: Data Centers, Fiber Optic Networks and Wireless Towers to power cloud-based platforms, 5G networks, and e-commerce.

Data Centers Fiber Optic Networks Distribution Centers

Companies included in the Benchmark Data & Infrastructure Real Estate SCTR Index enable: • Working from home • Streaming & Gaming • Video Conferencing

The cloud physically exists in the form of data centers. Massive warehouses are home to hundreds of servers, allowing for information to pass from device to device.

Streaming providers buy bandwidth from fiber optic networks to deliver content to the service providers present in individual networks.

Large warehouses, which contain distribution centers, exist all over the country and allow for e-commerce distributors to deliver goods to your door as quickly and efficiently as possible. As soon as an online order is placed, the surrounding infrastructure begins to work.

Companies included in the Benchmark Industrial Real Estate SCTR Index enable: • E-commerce distribution • Cold storage • Import and export of goods

Wireless Towers

Towers and antenna are key in transferring data across the globe. Today’s technology demands reliability and speed. Now, wires are not needed to transfer data.

DATA AND INFRASTRUCTURE REAL ESTATE: THE BACKBONE OF TECH

Source: FactSet, RBC

THE SPENDERS A “spender” is the network operator and cloud computing provider that incur expense to provide: • 5G communication • Cloud services • Data services

A data center is the physical location of the cloud. As the demand for faster service escalates, network operators and cloud computing providers have been tasked with this build out. The growth in data center spending by leading cloud providers has driven higher revenue growth for Data Center REITs.

THE RECEIVERS A “receiver” is the owner of the tech infrastructure, such as: • Data centers • Cell tower companies These companies earn lease revenue from the spenders. Each mobile network has driven a higher level of spending. The 5G build out will require an increase in spending for Network Carriers which may directly benefit the Cell Tower REITs.

In order for this new wave of technology to come to fruition, the digital and physical infrastructure must be built out.

Returns less than 1 year are cumulative. Returns greater than 1 year are annualized. Performance quoted represents past performance and does not guarantee future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so shares may be worth more or less when redeemed or sold. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Visit http://www.paceretfs.com for the most recent month-end performance. Index returns are for illustrative purposes only. Index performance does not reflect any management fees, transaction costs, or expenses. You cannot invest directly in an index.

NAV (net asset value) is the value of one share of the Fund calculated daily. The NAV return is based on the NAV of the Fund. It may not reflect the actual return for the investor. Market Price is the price investors can buy and sell ETF shares for in the stock market and is used to calculate market return. It is based on the price at the NYSE listed exchange market close. This is when NAV is determined for most ETFs. If shares trade at another time, the return may differ. Market and NAV returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested in the Fund at Market Price and NAV respectively.

To learn more about the Index methodology, please visit www.investbenchmark.com or call 877-337-0500. DEFINITIONS OF CERTAIN DEFINED TERMS USED HEREIN:Annualized average return represents the calculated hypothetical rate of return that, if cumulatively applied to each relevant annual period during the time period indicated, would result in the actual cumulative rate of return for the entire period. Upside/downside capture ratio shows you whether a given fund has outperformed--gained more or lost less than--a broad market benchmark during periods of market strength and weakness.Annualized volatility is based on monthly returns from the most recent date indicated on the page and expressed as a standard deviation percentage. Standard deviation is a measure of volatility and illustrates the extent of variation (whether higher or lower) that exists from the average given set of results. A low standard deviation indicates that the results tend to be very close to the average result (a low degree of volatility). In contrast, a high standard deviation indicates that the results are spread out over a large range of outcomes (a high degree of volatility). Because the standard deviation is based on historical data, it may not predict variability in annualized performance of the Pacer ETFs in the future. Price to funds from operations is a measure of the cash generated by a REIT; real estate companies use FFO as an operating performance benchmark. FFO is calculated by adding depreciation and amortization to earnings and then subtracting any gains on sales.
