Part I
Item 1. Business
The Trust and the Funds
Amplify Commodity Trust (formerly, ETF Managers Group Commodity Trust I) (the “Trust”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on July 23, 2014. Effective after the close of trading on February 14, 2024, ETF Managers Capital LLC, as the prior sponsor and commodity pool operator (the “Former Sponsor”) of the Trust, entered into an agreement (the “Transfer Agreement”) to resign as Sponsor to the Trust and transfer its role as the Trust’s sponsor to Amplify Investments LLC (“the Sponsor”). Under the terms of the Transfer Agreement, the Former Sponsor no longer has any involvement in the operations, management or marketing of the Fund. In connection with this change of Sponsor, Trust changed its name from the ETF Managers Group Commodity Trust I to the Amplify Commodity Trust. The Trust is a series trust formed pursuant to the Delaware Statutory Trust Act and currently includes two separate series: (i) Breakwave Dry Bulk Shipping ETF (“BDRY”), which is a commodity pool that continuously issues shares of beneficial interest that may be purchased and sold on the NYSE Arca, Inc. stock exchange (“NYSE Arca”), and (ii) Breakwave Tanker Shipping ETF (“BWET,” and together with BDRY, each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”), which is also a commodity pool that continuously issues shares of beneficial interest that may be purchased and sold on NYSE Arca.
BDRY commenced investment operations on March 22, 2018. BDRY commenced trading on NYSE Arca on March 22, 2018 and trades under the symbol “BDRY.”
BWET commenced investment operations on May 3, 2023. BWET commenced trading on the NYSE Arca on May 3, 2023 and trades under the symbol “BWET.”
The principal office of the Trust and the Funds is located at 3333 Warrenville Road, Suite 350, Lisle, IL 60532. The telephone number is (855) 267-3837.
The Sponsor
The Funds are each managed and controlled by Amplify Investments LLC (the “Sponsor”), a single member limited liability company that was formed in the state of Delaware on October 6, 2014. Each Fund pays the Sponsor a management fee. The Sponsor maintains its main business office at 3333 Warrenville Road, Suite 350, Lisle, IL 60532. The Sponsor’s telephone number is (855) 267-3837.
The Funds are each a “commodity pool” as defined by the Commodity Exchange Act (“CEA”). Consequently, the Sponsor has registered as a commodity pool operator (“CPO”) with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) and is a member of the National Futures Association (“NFA”).
Breakwave Dry Bulk Shipping ETF
BDRY Investment Objective
BDRY’s investment objective is to provide investors with exposure to the daily change in the price of dry bulk freight futures by tracking the performance of a portfolio (the “BDRY Benchmark Portfolio” ) consisting of exchange-cleared futures contracts on the cost of shipping dry bulk freight (“Dry Freight Futures”). BDRY seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing substantially all of its assets in the Dry Freight Futures currently constituting the BDRY Benchmark Portfolio.
The BDRY Benchmark Portfolio is maintained by Breakwave Advisors LLC (“Breakwave”), which also serves as BDRY’s Commodity Trading Advisor (“CTA”). The BDRY Benchmark Portfolio is maintained by Breakwave and will be rebalanced annually.

BDRY Investing Strategy
BDRY seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing substantially all of its assets in the Dry Freight Futures currently constituting the BDRY Benchmark Portfolio. The BDRY Benchmark Portfolio will include all existing positions to maturity and settle them in cash. During any given calendar quarter, the BDRY Benchmark Portfolio will progressively increase its position to the next calendar quarter three-month strip, thus maintaining constant exposure to the Dry Freight Futures market as positions mature.
The BDRY Benchmark Portfolio will maintain long-only positions in Dry Freight Futures. The BDRY Benchmark Portfolio will include a combination of Capesize, Panamax and Supramax Dry Freight Futures. More specifically, the BDRY Benchmark Portfolio will include 50% exposure in Capesize Dry Freight Futures contracts, 40% exposure in Panamax Dry Freight Futures contracts and 10% exposure in Supramax Dry Freight Futures contracts. The BDRY Benchmark Portfolio will not include and BDRY will not invest in swaps, non-cleared dry bulk freight forwards or other over-the-counter derivative instruments that are not cleared through exchanges or clearing houses. BDRY may hold exchange-traded options on Dry Freight Futures. The BDRY Benchmark Portfolio is maintained by Breakwave and will be rebalanced annually. The Dry Freight Futures currently constituting the BDRY Benchmark Portfolio, as well as the daily holdings of BDRY will be available on BDRY’s website at www.drybulketf.com.
When establishing positions in Dry Freight Futures, BDRY will be required to deposit initial margin with a value of approximately 10% to 40% of the notional value of each Dry Freight Futures position at the time it is established. These margin requirements are established and subject to change from time to time by the relevant exchanges, clearing houses or BDRY’s futures commission merchant (“FCM”). On a daily basis, BDRY will be obligated to pay, or entitled to receive, variation margin in an amount equal to the change in the daily settlement level of its Dry Freight Futures positions. Any assets not required to be posted as margin with BDRY’s FCM will generally be held at BDRY’s custodian in cash or cash equivalents, as discussed below.
BDRY will hold cash or cash equivalents such as U.S. Treasuries or other high credit quality, short term fixed income or similar securities for direct investment and for other liquidity purposes and to meet redemptions that may be necessary on an ongoing basis. BDRY may also realize interest income from its holdings in U.S. Treasuries or other market rate instruments.

Fund Trading Policies
Liquidity
Each Fund invests principally in exchange cleared futures that, in the opinion of the Sponsor, are traded in sufficient volume to permit the ready taking of orders in these financial instruments.
Leverage
The Sponsor endeavors to have the value of each Fund’s Treasury Securities, cash and cash equivalents, whether held by the Fund or posted as margin or collateral, at all times approximate the aggregate market value of its obligations under the Fund’s Freight Futures interests, adjusted for the proportion of the current month’s Freight Futures contracts whose value has already been assessed.
Borrowings
Each Fund does not intend to, or foresees the need to, borrow money or establish lines of credit.
Pyramiding
Each Fund does not and will not employ the technique, commonly known as pyramiding, in which the speculator uses unrealized profits on existing positions as variation margin for the purchase of additional positions in the same commodity interest.
5
No Distributions
The Sponsor has discretionary authority over all distributions made by the Funds. In view of each Fund’s objective of seeking significant capital appreciation, the Sponsor currently does not intend to cause a Fund to make any distributions, but, has the sole discretion to do so from time to time.
Margin Requirements and Marking-to-Market Futures Positions
“Initial margin” is an amount of funds that must be deposited by a commodity trader with the trader’s broker to initiate an open position in futures contracts. A margin deposit is like a cash performance bond. It helps assure the trader’s performance of the futures contracts that he or she purchases or sells. Futures contracts are customarily bought and sold on initial margin that represents a small percentage of the aggregate purchase or sales price of the contract. The amount of margin required in connection with a particular futures contract is set by the exchange on which the contract is traded. Brokerage firms, such as the Funds’ clearing broker, carrying accounts for traders in commodity interest contracts may require higher amounts of margin as a matter of policy to further protect themselves.
Futures contracts are marked to market at the end of each trading day and the margin required with respect to such contracts is adjusted accordingly. This process of marking-to-market is designed to prevent losses from accumulating in any futures account. Therefore, if a Fund’s futures positions have declined in value, the Fund maybe required to post “variation margin” to cover this decline. Alternatively, if a Fund’s futures positions have increased in value, this increase will be credited to the Fund’s account.
Futures Contracts
The Funds enter into futures contracts to gain exposure to changes in the value of the Benchmark Portfolios. A futures contract obligates the seller to deliver (and the purchaser to accept) the future cash settlement of a specified quantity and type of a freight futures contract at a specified time and place. The contractual obligations of a buyer or seller of a freight futures contract may generally be satisfied by making an offsetting sale or purchase of an identical futures contract on the same or linked exchange before the designated date of delivery.
Upon entering into a futures contract, the Funds are each required to deposit and maintain as collateral at least such initial margin as required by the exchange on which the transaction is affected. The initial margin is segregated as cash held by broker, as disclosed in the Combined Statements of Assets and Liabilities, and is restricted as to its use. Pursuant to the futures contract, the Funds each agree to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the futures contract. Such receipts or payments are known as variation margin and are recorded by the Funds as unrealized gains or losses. The Funds will realize a gain or loss upon closing a futures transaction.
Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, elements of market risk (specifically freight futures price risk) and exposure to loss in excess of the amount of variation margin. The face or contract amounts reflect the extent of the total exposure the Funds have in the particular classes of instruments. Additional risks associated with the use of futures contracts include imperfect correlation between movements in the price of the futures contracts and the market value of the underlying securities and the possibility of an illiquid market for a futures contract. With futures contracts, there is minimal counterparty risk to the Funds since futures contracts are exchange-traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange-traded futures contracts, guarantees the futures contracts against default.

The Funds’ Service Providers
Administrator, Custodian, Fund Accountant, and Transfer Agent
The Funds have each appointed U.S. Bank, a national banking association, with its principal office in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, as the custodian (the “Custodian”). Its affiliate, U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, is the Fund accountant (the “Fund Accountant”) of the Funds, transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) for the Funds’ shares and administrator for the Funds (the “Administrator”). It performs certain administrative and accounting services for the Funds and prepares certain SEC, NFA and CFTC reports on behalf of the Funds. (U.S. Bank and U.S. Bancorp Fund Services are referred to collectively hereinafter as “U.S. Bank”).
Distributor
The Sponsor entered into a Marketing Agent Agreement (the “Marketing Agreement”) on behalf of the Trust and the Funds with Foreside Fund Services, LLC (“Foreside”), pursuant to which Foreside provides certain marketing services to the Funds. Each Fund pays an annual fee for such distribution services and related administrative services, with a minimum of approximately $10,000 payable annually. Pursuant to the Marketing Agent Agreement between the Sponsor, the Funds and Foreside, Foreside assists the Sponsor and the Funds with certain functions and duties relating to distribution and marketing services to the Funds, including reviewing and approving marketing materials and certain regulatory compliance matters. Foreside also assists with the processing of creation and redemption orders. Foreside’s principal business office is located in Portland, ME.
Trustee
Under the respective Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust and Trust Agreement (each, a “Trust Agreement”) for each Fund, Wilmington Trust Company, the Trustee of each of the Funds (the “Trustee”) serves as the sole trustee of each Fund in the State of Delaware. The Trustee will accept service of legal process on the Funds in the State of Delaware and will make certain filings under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act. Under the Trust Agreement for each Fund, the Sponsor has the exclusive management and control of all aspects of the business of the Funds. The Trustee does not owe any other duties to the Funds, the Sponsor or the Shareholders of the Fund. The Trustee has no duty or liability to supervise or monitor the performance of the Sponsor, nor does the Trustee have any liability for the acts or omissions of the Sponsor.
Futures Commission Merchant
Marex Financial (“Marex”), registered in England, serves as the Funds’ clearing broker (the “Commodity Broker”). In its capacity as clearing broker, the Commodity Broker executes and clears the Funds’ futures transactions and performs certain administrative services for the Funds. ED&F Man Capital Markets Limited served as BDRY’s clearing broker from June 3, 2022 until being acquired by Marex on October 3, 2023. Marex is exempt, pursuant to CFTC Regulation 30.10, from registration with the CFTC as a futures commission merchant. The Funds pay Marex commissions for executing and clearing trades on their behalf.
There have been no material administrative, civil or criminal actions brought, pending or concluded against Marex or its principals in the past five years.
Marex is not affiliated with the Funds or the Sponsor. Therefore, the Sponsor and the Funds do not believe that the Funds have any conflicts of interest with Marex or its trading principals arising from their acting as the Funds’ FCM.
Legal Counsel
Chapman and Cutler LLP serves as legal counsel to the Trust and the Funds.

The assumption of expenses and waiver of BDRY’s CTA Fee are contractual on the part of the Sponsor and Breakwave, respectively, through December 31, 2026. If after that date, the Sponsor and/or Breakwave no longer assumed expenses or waived the CTA Fee, respectively, BDRY could be adversely impacted, including in its ability to achieve its investment objective.
BWET pays the Sponsor an annual Sponsor Fee, accrued daily and paid monthly in arrears, equal to the greater of (i) 0.30% per year of the Fund’s average daily net assets; or (ii) $50,000.

Administrator, Custodian, Fund Accountant, and Transfer Agent Fees
Each Fund has agreed to pay U.S. Bank 0.05% of average assets under management (AUM), with a $45,000 minimum annual fee payable for its administrative, accounting and transfer agent services and 0.01% of AUM, with an annual minimum of $4,800 for custody services.

Brokerage commissions on futures contracts are recognized on a half-turn basis.
The Sponsor does not expect brokerage commissions and fees, on an annual basis, to exceed 0.40% for BDRY and 1.35% for BWET (excluding the impact on the Funds of creation and/or redemption activity) of the NAV of the respective Funds and for execution and clearing services to exceed $12 per lot on behalf of BDRY and $11 per lot on behalf of BWET, although the actual amount of brokerage commissions and fees in any year or any part of any year may be greater. The effects of trading spreads, financing costs associated with financial instruments, and costs relating to the purchase of freight futures, Treasury Instruments or similar high credit quality short-term fixed-income or similar securities are not included in the foregoing analysis.
Other Fees
Each Fund is responsible for certain other expenses, including professional services (e.g., outside auditor’s fees and legal fees and expenses), shareholder Form K-1’s, tax return preparation, regulatory compliance, and other services provided by affiliated and non-affiliated service providers. The fees for Principal Financial Officer, Chief Compliance Officer, and regulatory reporting services provided to the Funds by the Sponsor each amount to $25,000 per annum.
Extraordinary fees
Each Fund pays all of its extraordinary fees and expenses, if any. Extraordinary fees and expenses are fees and expenses which are non-recurring and unusual in nature, such as legal claims and liabilities, litigation costs or indemnification or other unanticipated expenses. Such extraordinary fees and expenses, by their nature, are unpredictable in terms of timing and amount.
Form of Shares
Registered Form
Shares of the Funds are issued in registered form in accordance with the Trust Agreement for each Fund. U.S. Bank has been appointed registrar and transfer agent for the purpose of transferring shares in certificated form. U.S. Bank keeps a record of all limited partners and holders of the shares in certificated form in the registry (the “Register”). The Sponsor recognizes transfers of shares in certificated form only if done in accordance with the respective Trust Agreement for each Fund. The beneficial interests in such shares are held in book-entry form through participants and/or accountholders in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”).
Book Entry
Individual certificates are not issued for the shares. Instead, shares are represented by one or more global certificates, which are deposited by the Administrator with, or on behalf of, DTC and registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for DTC. The global certificates evidence all of the shares outstanding at any time. Shareholders are limited to (1) participants in DTC such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies (“DTC Participants”), (2) banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies who maintain, either directly or indirectly, a custodial relationship with, or clear through, a DTC Participant (“Indirect Participants”), and (3) persons holding interests in the shares through DTC Participants or Indirect Participants, in each case who satisfy the requirements for transfers of shares.
Shareholders will be shown on, and the transfer of Shares will be effected only through, in the case of DTC Participants, the records maintained by the Depository and, in the case of Indirect Participants and Shareholders holding through a DTC Participant or an Indirect participant, through those records or the records of the relevant DTC Participants or Indirect participants. Shareholders are expected to receive, from or through which the Shareholder has purchased Shares, a written confirmation relating to their purchase of Shares.

DTC holds securities for DTC Participants and facilitates the clearance and settlement of transactions between DTC Participants through electronic book-entry changes in accounts of DTC Participants.
Calculating NAV
Each Fund’s NAV is calculated by:
| ● | Taking the current market value of its total assets; |
| ● | Subtracting any liabilities; and |
| ● | Dividing that total by the total number of outstanding shares. |
The Administrator calculates the NAV of the Funds once each NYSE Arca trading day. The NAV for a particular trading day is released after 4:00 p.m. E.T. Regular trading on the NYSE Arca typically closes at 4:00 p.m. E.T. The Administrator uses the Baltic Exchange settlement price for the Freight Futures and option contracts. The Administrator calculates or determines the value of all other BDRY and BWET investments using market quotations, if available, or other information customarily used to determine the fair value of such investments as of the close of the NYSE Arca (normally 4:00 p.m. E.T.), in accordance with the current Administrative Agency Agreement among U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, the Fund and the Sponsor. The information may include costs of funding, to the extent costs of funding are not and would not be a component of the other information being utilized. Third parties supplying quotations or market data may include, without limitation, dealers in the relevant market, end-users of the relevant product, information vendors, brokers and other sources of market information.
In addition, in order to provide updated information relating to the Funds for use by investors and market professionals, an updated indicative fund value (“IFV”) is made available through on-line information services throughout the core trading hours of 9:30 a.m. E.T. to 4:00 p.m. E.T. on each trading day. The IFV is calculated by using the prior day’s closing NAV per share of each Fund as a base and updating that value throughout the trading day to reflect changes in the most recently reported trade price for the futures and/or options held by each Fund. Certain Freight Futures brokers provide real time pricing information to the general public either through their websites or through data vendors such as Bloomberg or Reuters. The IFV disseminated during NYSE Arca core trading hours should not be viewed as an actual real time update of the NAV, because the NAV is calculated only once at the end of each trading day based upon the relevant end of day values of each of the Funds’ investments.
The IFV is disseminated on a per share basis every 15 seconds during regular NYSE Arca core trading session hours. The customary trading hours of the Freight Futures trading are 3:00 a.m. E.T. to 12:00 p.m. E.T. This means that there is a gap in time at the beginning and/or the end of each day during which the Funds’ shares are traded on the NYSE Arca, but real-time trading prices for contracts are not available. During such gaps in time the IFV will be calculated based on the end of day price of such contracts from the Baltic Exchange’s and ICE’s immediately preceding trading session. In addition, other investments and U.S. Treasuries held by the Funds will be valued by the Administrator, using rates and points received from client-approved third party vendors (such as Reuters and WM Company) and advisor or broker-dealer quotes. These investments will not be included in the IFV.
The NYSE Arca disseminates the IFV through the facilities of CTA/CQ High Speed Lines. In addition, the IFV is published on the NYSE Arca’s website and is available through on-line information services such as Bloomberg and Reuters.
Dissemination of the IFV provides additional information that is not otherwise available to the public and is useful to investors and market professionals in connection with the trading of the Funds’ shares on the NYSE Arca. Investors and market professionals are able throughout the trading day to compare the market price of the Funds ’shares and the IFV. If the market price of the Funds’ shares diverges significantly from the IFV, market professionals will have an incentive to execute arbitrage trades. For example, if the Funds’ shares appear to be trading at a discount compared to the IFV, a market professional could purchase the Funds’ shares on the NYSE Arca and take the opposite position in Freight Futures. Such arbitrage trades can tighten the tracking between the market price of the Funds’ shares and the IFV and thus can be beneficial to all market participants.

Creation and Redemption of Shares
The Funds create and redeem shares from time to time, but only in one or more Creation Baskets or Redemption Baskets. The creation and redemption of baskets are only made in exchange for delivery to the Funds or the distribution by the Funds of the amount of cash represented by the baskets being created or redeemed, the amount of which is based on the combined NAV of the number of shares included in the baskets being created or redeemed determined as of 4:00 p.m. E.T. on the day the order to create or redeem baskets is properly received.
Authorized Participants are the only persons that may place orders to create and redeem baskets. Authorized Participants must be (1) registered broker-dealers or other securities market participants, such as banks and other financial institutions, that are not required to register as broker-dealers to engage in securities transactions described below, and (2) DTC Participants. To become an Authorized Participant, a person must enter into an Authorized Participant Agreement with the Sponsor. The Authorized Participant Agreement provides the procedures for the creation and redemption of baskets and for the delivery of the U.S. Treasuries and any cash required for such creation and redemptions. The Authorized Participant Agreement and the related procedures attached thereto may be amended by the Funds, without the consent of any limited partner or shareholder or Authorized Participant. Authorized Participants will pay a transaction fee of $300 to the Custodian for each order they place to create or redeem one or more baskets. Authorized Participants who make deposits with the Funds in exchange for baskets receive no fees, commissions or other form of compensation or inducement of any kind from either of the Funds or the Sponsor, and no such person will have any obligation or responsibility to the Sponsor or the Funds to effect any sale or resale of shares.
Each Authorized Participant is required to be registered as a broker-dealer under the Exchange Act and be a member in good standing with FINRA, or exempt from being or otherwise not required to be registered as a broker-dealer or a member of FINRA, and qualified to act as a broker or dealer in the states or other jurisdictions where the nature of its business so requires. Certain Authorized Participants may also be regulated under federal and state banking laws and regulations. Each Authorized Participant has its own set of rules and procedures, internal controls and information barriers as it determines is appropriate in light of its own regulatory regime.
Under the Authorized Participant Agreements, the Sponsor has agreed to indemnify the Authorized Participants against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the1933 Act, and to contribute to the payments the Authorized Participants may be required to make in respect of those liabilities.
Creation Procedures
On any business day, an Authorized Participant may place an order with the Transfer Agent, and accepted by the Distributor, to create one or more baskets. For purposes of processing purchase and redemption orders, a “business day” means any day other than a day when any of the NYSE Arca, the New York Stock Exchange or the Baltic Exchange is closed for regular trading. Purchase orders must be placed by 12:00 p.m. E.T. or the close of the NYSE Arca core trading session, whichever is earlier. The day on which a valid purchase order is received in accordance with the terms of the “Authorized Participant Agreement” is referred to as the purchase order date. Purchase orders are irrevocable. Prior to the delivery of baskets for a purchase order, the Authorized Participant will be charged a non-refundable transaction fee due for the purchase order.
The manner by which creations are made is dictated by the terms of the Authorized Participant Agreement.
Determination of Required Payment
The Creation Basket Deposit for BDRY is the NAV of 25,000 shares and 5,000 shares for BWET on the purchase order date, but only if the required payment is timely received. To calculate the NAV, the Administrator will use the Baltic Exchange settlement price (typically determined after 12:00 p.m. E.T. and 2:00 p.m. E.T. for BWET and BDRY Freight Futures respectively) for the Freight Futures.
Because orders to purchase Creation Baskets must be placed no later than 12:00 p.m. E.T., but the total payment required to create a Creation Basket typically will not be determined until after 12:00 p.m. E.T. or 2:00 p.m. E.T. for BWET and BDRY respectively, on the date the purchase order is received, Authorized Participants will not know the total amount of the payment required to create a Creation Basket at the time they submit an irrevocable purchase order. The NAV and the total amount of the payment required to create a Creation Basket could rise or fall substantially between the time an irrevocable purchase order is submitted and the time the amount of the purchase price in respect thereof is determined.
11
Delivery of Required Payment
An Authorized Participant who places a purchase order shall transfer to the Administrator the required amount of cash, by the end of the next business day following the purchase order date. Upon receipt of the deposit amount, the Administrator will direct DTC to credit the number of Creation Baskets ordered to the Authorized Participant’s DTC account on the next business day following the purchase order date.
Suspension of Purchase Orders
The Sponsor acting by itself or through the Administrator or the Distributor may suspend the right of purchase, or postpone the purchase settlement date, for any period during which the NYSE Arca or other exchange on which the shares are listed is closed, other than for customary holidays or weekends, or when trading is restricted or suspended. None of the Sponsor, the Marketing Agent or the Administrator will be liable to any person or in any way for any loss or damages that may result from any such suspension or postponement.
Rejection of Purchase Orders
The Sponsor acting by itself or through the Distributor shall have the absolute right but no obligation to reject a purchase order or a Creation Basket Deposit if:
| ● | It determines that the purchase order or the Creation Basket Deposit is not in proper form; |
| ● | The acceptance or receipt of the purchase order or Creation Basket Deposit would, in the opinion of counsel to the Sponsor, be unlawful; or |
| ● | Circumstances outside the control of the Sponsor, Distributor or Custodian make it, for all practical purposes, not feasible to process creations of baskets. |
None of the Sponsor, Distributor or Custodian will be liable for the rejection of any purchase order or Creation Basket Deposit.
Redemption Procedures
The procedures by which an Authorized Participant can redeem one or more baskets mirror the procedures for the creation of baskets. On any business day, an Authorized Participant may place an order with the Distributor to redeem one or more baskets. Redemption orders must be placed by 12:00 p.m. E.T. or the close of the core trading session on the NYSE Arca, whichever is earlier. A redemption order so received will be effective on the date it is received in satisfactory form by the Distributor. The redemption procedures allow Authorized Participants to redeem baskets and do not entitle an individual shareholder to redeem any shares in an amount less than a Redemption Basket, or to redeem baskets other than through an Authorized Participant. Redemption orders are irrevocable.
Determination of Redemption Proceeds
The redemption proceeds from the Funds consist of a cash redemption amount equal to the NAV of the number of Baskets requested in the Authorized Participant’s redemption order on the redemption order date. To calculate the NAV, the Administrator will use the Baltic Exchange settlement price (typically determined after 12:00 p.m. E.T. and 2:00 p.m. E.T. for the BWET and BDRY Freight Futures respectively) for the Freight Futures.
Because orders to redeem baskets must be placed no later than 12:00 p.m. E.T., but the total amount of redemption proceeds typically will not be determined until after 12:00 p.m. E.T or 2:00 p.m. E.T. for BWET and BDRY respectively, on the date the redemption order is received, Authorized Participants will not know the total amount of the redemption proceeds at the time they submit an irrevocable redemption order. The NAV and the total amount of redemption proceeds could rise or fall substantially between the time an irrevocable redemption order is submitted and the time the amount of redemption proceeds in respect thereof is determined.
12
Delivery of Redemption Proceeds
The redemption proceeds due from the Fund will be delivered to the Authorized Participant at 1:00 p.m. E.T., on the next business day immediately following the redemption order date if, by such time, the Funds’ DTC account has been credited with the baskets to be redeemed. If the Funds’ DTC account has not been credited with all of the baskets to be redeemed by such time, the redemption distribution is delivered to the extent of whole baskets received. Any remainder of the redemption distribution is delivered on the next business day to the extent of remaining whole baskets received if the Funds receive the fee applicable to the extension of the redemption distribution date which the Sponsor may, from time to time, determine and the remaining baskets to be redeemed are credited to the Funds’ DTC accounts by 1:00 p.m. E.T., on such next business day. Any further outstanding amount of the redemption order shall be cancelled. The Sponsor may cause the redemption distribution to be delivered notwithstanding that the baskets to be redeemed are not credited to the Fund’s DTC account by 12:00 p.m. E.T., on the next business day immediately following the redemption order date if the Authorized Participant has collateralized its obligation to deliver the Baskets through DTC’s book entry system on such terms as the Sponsor may from time to time determine.
Suspension or Rejection of Redemption Orders
The Sponsor may, in its discretion, suspend the right of redemption, or postpone the redemption settlement date, (1) for any period during which the NYSE Arca, or the Baltic Exchange is closed other than customary weekend or holiday closings, or trading on the NYSE Arca, or the Baltic Exchange, is suspended or restricted, (2) for any period during which an emergency exists as a result of which delivery, disposal or evaluation of the redemption distribution or redemption proceeds, as applicable, is not reasonably practicable, or (3) for such other period as the Sponsor determines to be necessary for the protection of the limited partners or shareholders. For example, the Sponsor may determine that it is necessary to suspend redemptions to allow for the orderly liquidation of the Funds’ assets at an appropriate value to fund a redemption. If the Sponsor has difficulty liquidating its positions, e.g., because of a market disruption event in the futures markets or a suspension of trading by the exchange where the futures contracts are listed, it may be appropriate to suspend redemptions until such time as such circumstances are rectified. None of the Sponsor, the Distributor, the Transfer Agent, the Administrator, or the Custodian will be liable to any person or in any way for any loss or damages that may result from any such suspension or postponement.
Redemption orders must be made in whole baskets. The Sponsor will reject a redemption order if the order is not in proper form as described in the applicable Authorized Participant Agreement or if the fulfillment of the order, in the opinion of its counsel, might be unlawful. The Sponsor may also reject a redemption order if the number of shares being redeemed would reduce the remaining outstanding shares to 50,000 shares (minimum NYSE Arca maintenance listing requirement) or less, unless the Sponsor has reason to believe that the placer of the redemption order does in fact possess all the outstanding shares and can deliver them. None of the Sponsor, the Marketing Agent or the Administrator will be liable to any person or in any way for any loss or damages that may result from any such suspension or postponement.
Creation and Redemption Transaction Fee
To compensate the Funds for their expenses in connection with the creation and redemption of baskets, an Authorized Participant is required to pay a transaction fee to the Custodian of $300 per order to create or redeem baskets, regardless of the number of baskets in such order. An order may include multiple baskets. The transaction fee may be reduced, increased or otherwise changed by the Sponsor. The Sponsor will notify DTC of any change in the transaction fee and will not implement any increase in the fee for the redemption of baskets until 30 days after the date of the notice.
Tax Responsibility
Authorized Participants are responsible for any transfer tax, sales or use tax, stamp tax, recording tax, value added tax or similar tax or governmental charge applicable to the creation or redemption of baskets, regardless of whether or not such tax or charge is imposed directly on the Authorized Participant, and agree to indemnify the Sponsor and the Funds if they are required by law to pay any such tax, together with any applicable penalties, additions to tax and interest thereon.
13
Secondary Market Transactions
As noted, the Funds create and redeem shares from time to time, but only in one or more Creation Baskets or Redemption Baskets. The creation and redemption of baskets are only made in exchange for delivery to the Funds or the distribution by the Funds of the amount of cash, represented by the baskets being created or redeemed, the amount of which will be based on the aggregate NAV of the number of shares included in the baskets being created or redeemed determined on the day the order to create or redeem baskets is properly received.
As discussed above, Authorized Participants are the only persons that may place orders to create and redeem baskets. Authorized Participants must be registered broker-dealers or other securities market participants, such as banks and other financial institutions that are not required to register as broker-dealers to engage in securities transactions. An Authorized Participant is under no obligation to create or redeem baskets, and an Authorized Participant is under no obligation to offer to the public shares of any baskets it does create. Authorized Participants that do offer to the public shares from the baskets they create will do so at per share offering prices that are expected to reflect, among other factors, the trading price of the shares on the NYSE Arca, the NAV of the Funds at the time the Authorized Participant purchased the Creation Baskets and the NAV of the shares at the time of the offer of the shares to the public, the supply of and demand for shares at the time of sale, and the liquidity of the futures contract market. The prices of shares offered by Authorized Participants are expected to fall between the Funds’ NAVs and the trading price of the shares on the NYSE Arca at the time of sale.
Shares initially comprising the same basket but offered by Authorized Participants to the public at different times may have different offering prices. An order for one or more baskets may be placed by an Authorized Participant on behalf of multiple clients. Authorized Participants that make deposits with the Funds in exchange for baskets receive no fees, commissions or other form of compensation or inducement of any kind from either of the Funds or the Sponsor, and no such person has any obligation or responsibility to the Sponsor or the Funds to effect any sale or resale of shares.
Shares trade in the secondary market on the NYSE Arca. Shares may trade in the secondary market at prices that are lower or higher relative to their NAV per share. The amount of the discount or premium in the trading price relative to the NAV per share may be influenced by various factors, including the number of investors who seek to purchase or sell shares in the secondary market and the liquidity of the futures contracts market. While the shares trade during regular trading hours on the NYSE Arca until 4:00 p.m. E.T., liquidity in the market for Freight Futures, may be reduced after the close of the Freight Futures market at approximately 12:00 p.m. E.T. As a result, during this time, trading spreads, and the resulting premium or discount, on the shares may widen.
There are a minimum number of specified baskets and associated shares. Once the minimum number of baskets is reached, there can be no more basket redemptions until there has been a Creation Basket. In such case, market makers may be less willing to purchase shares from investors in the secondary market, which may in turn limit the ability of shareholders of the Funds to sell their shares in the secondary market. As of the date of this annual report the minimum level for BDRY is 25,000 Shares and BWET is 5,000 shares, representing two baskets.
All proceeds from the sale of Creation Baskets will be invested as quickly as practicable in the investments described in the prospectus. The Funds’ cash and investments are held through their Custodian, in accounts with their commodity futures brokers or in demand deposits with highly-rated financial institutions. There is no stated maximum time period for either of the Funds’ operations and the Funds may continue their operations until all shares are redeemed or the Funds are liquidated pursuant to the terms of the Funds’ Trust Agreement.

Regulatory Environment
The regulation of futures markets, futures contracts, and futures exchanges has historically been comprehensive. The CFTC and the exchanges are authorized to take extraordinary actions in the event of a market emergency including, for example, the retroactive implementation of speculative position limits, increased margin requirements, the establishment of daily price limits and the suspension of trading.
The regulation of commodity interest transactions in the United States is an evolving area of law and is subject to ongoing modification by governmental and judicial action. Considerable regulatory attention has been focused on non-traditional investment pools that are publicly distributed in the United States. There is a possibility of future regulatory changes within the United States altering, perhaps to a material extent, the nature of an investment in the Funds or the ability of the Funds to continue to implement their investment strategies. In addition, various national governments outside of the United States have expressed concern regarding the disruptive effects of speculative trading in the commodities markets and the need to regulate the derivatives markets in general. The effect of any future regulatory change on the Funds is impossible to predict but could be substantial and adverse.
The CFTC possesses exclusive jurisdiction to regulate the activities of commodity pool operators and commodity trading advisors with respect to “commodity interests,” such as futures, swaps and options, and has adopted regulations with respect to the activities of those persons and/or entities. Under the CEA, a registered CPO, such as the Sponsor, is required to make annual filings with the CFTC and NFA describing its organization, capital structure, management and controlling persons. In addition, the CEA authorizes the CFTC to require and review books and records of, and documents prepared by, registered CPOs. Pursuant to this authority, the CFTC requires CPOs to keep accurate, current and orderly records for each pool that they operate. The CFTC may suspend the registration of a commodity pool operator (1) if the CFTC finds that the operator’s trading practices tend to disrupt orderly market conditions, (2) if any controlling person of the operator is subject to an order of the CFTC denying such person trading privileges on any exchange, and (3) in certain other circumstances. Suspension, restriction or termination of the Sponsor’s registration as a commodity pool operator would prevent it, until that registration were to be reinstated, from managing the Funds, and might result in the termination of the Funds if a successor sponsor is not elected pursuant to the Trust Agreement.
The Funds’ investors are afforded prescribed rights for reparations under the CEA. Investors may also be able to maintain a private right of action for violations of the CEA. The CFTC has adopted rules implementing the reparation provisions of the CEA, which provide that any person may file a complaint for a reparations award with the CFTC for violation of the CEA against a floor broker or an FCM, introducing broker, commodity trading advisor, CPO, and their respective associated persons.
Pursuant to authority in the CEA, the NFA has been formed and registered with the CFTC as a registered futures association. At the present time, the NFA is the only self-regulatory organization for commodity interest professionals, other than futures exchanges. The CFTC has delegated to the NFA responsibility for the registration of CPOs and FCMs and their respective associated persons. The Sponsor is a member of the NFA and, as such, it will be subject to NFA standards relating to fair trade practices, financial condition and consumer protection. The NFA also arbitrates disputes between members and their customers and conducts registration and fitness screening of applicants for membership and audits of its existing members. Neither the Trust nor the Funds are required to become a member of the NFA.
The regulations of the CFTC and the NFA prohibit any representation by a person registered with the CFTC or by any member of the NFA, that registration with the CFTC, or membership in the NFA, in any respect indicates that the CFTC or the NFA has approved or endorsed that person or that person’s trading program or objectives. The registrations and memberships of the parties described in this summary must not be considered as constituting any such approval or endorsement. Likewise, no futures exchange has given or will give any similar approval or endorsement.
Futures exchanges in the United States are subject to varying degrees of regulation under the CEA depending on whether such exchange is a designated contract market, exempt board of trade or electronic trading facility. Clearing organizations are also subject to the CEA and the rules and regulations adopted thereunder as administered by the CFTC. The CFTC’s function is to implement the CEA’s objectives of preventing price manipulation and excessive speculation and promoting orderly and efficient commodity interest markets. In addition, the various exchanges and clearing organizations themselves exercise regulatory and supervisory authority over their member firms.

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) was enacted in response to the economic crisis of 2008 and 2009 and it significantly altered the regulatory regime to which the securities and commodities markets are subject. To date, the CFTC has issued proposed or final versions of almost all of the rules it is required to promulgate under the Dodd-Frank Act. The provisions of the law include the requirement that position limits be established on a wide range of commodity interests, including agricultural, energy, and metal-based commodity futures contracts, options on such futures contracts and cleared and uncleared swaps that are economically equivalent to such futures contracts and options; new registration and recordkeeping requirements for swap market participants; capital and margin requirements for “swap dealers” and “major swap participants,” as determined by the new law and applicable regulations; reporting of all swap transactions to swap data repositories; and the mandatory use of clearinghouse mechanisms for sufficiently standardized swap transactions that were historically entered into in the over-the-counter market, but are now designated as subject to the clearing requirement; and margin requirements for over-the-counter swaps that are not subject to the clearing requirements.
The Dodd-Frank Act was intended to reduce systemic risks that may have contributed to the 2008/2009 financial crisis. Since the first draft of what became the Dodd-Frank Act, supporters and opponents have debated the scope of the legislation. As the administrations of the U.S. change, the interpretation and implementation will change along with them. Nevertheless, regulatory reform of any kind may have a significant impact on U.S. regulated entities.
Current rules and regulations under the Dodd-Frank Act require enhanced customer protections, risk management programs, internal monitoring and controls, capital and liquidity standards, customer disclosures and auditing and examination programs for FCMs. The rules are intended to afford greater assurances to market participants that customer segregated funds and secured amounts are protected, customers are provided with appropriate notice of the risks of futures trading and of the FCMs with which they may choose to do business, FCMs are monitoring and managing risks in a robust manner, the capital and liquidity of FCMs are strengthened to safeguard the continued operations and the auditing and examination programs of the CFTC and the self-regulatory organizations are monitoring the activities of FCMs in a thorough manner.
Regulatory bodies outside the U.S. have also passed or proposed, or may propose in the future, legislation similar to that proposed by the Dodd-Frank Act or other legislation containing other restrictions that could adversely impact the liquidity of and increase costs of participating in the commodities markets. For example, the European Union Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (Directive 2014/65/EU) and Markets in Financial Instruments Regulation (Regulation (EU) No 600/2014)(together “MiFID II”), which has applied since January 3, 2018, governs the provision of investment services and activities in relation to, as well as the organized trading of, financial instruments such as shares, bonds, units in collective investment schemes and derivatives. In particular, MiFID II requires EU Member States to apply position limits to the size of a net position which a person can hold at any time in “critical or significant” commodity derivatives traded on EU trading venues and in “economically equivalent “over-the-counter (“OTC”) contracts. By way of further example, the European Market Infrastructure Regulation (Regulation (EU) No 648/2012, as amended) (“EMIR”) introduced certain requirements in respect of OTC derivatives including: (i) the mandatory clearing of OTC derivative contracts declared subject to the clearing obligation; (ii) risk mitigation techniques in respect of un-cleared OTC derivative contracts, including the mandatory margining of un-cleared OTC derivative contracts; and (iii) reporting and recordkeeping requirements in respect of all derivatives contracts. In the event that the requirements under EMIR and MiFID II apply, these are expected to increase the cost of transacting derivatives.
In addition, considerable regulatory attention has been focused on non-traditional publicly distributed investment pools such as the Funds. Furthermore, various national governments have expressed concern regarding the disruptive effects of speculative trading in certain commodity markets and the need to regulate the derivatives markets in general. The effect of any future regulatory change on the Funds is impossible to predict but could be substantial and adverse.

Overview
The Trust is a Delaware statutory trust formed on July 23, 2014. The Trust is a series trust currently consisting of two publicly listed series: Breakwave Dry Bulk Shipping ETF (“BDRY”) and Breakwave Tanker Shipping ETF (“BWET”). All of the series of the Trust are collectively referred to as the “Funds” and singularly as the “Fund.” Each Fund issues common units, called the “Shares,” representing fractional undivided beneficial interests in the respective Fund. The Trust and the Funds operate pursuant to the Trust’s Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust and Trust Agreement (the “Trust Agreement”).
The Sponsor has the power and authority to establish and designate one or more series and to issue shares thereof, from time to time as it deems necessary or desirable. The Sponsor has exclusive power to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences as between the shares of any series as to the right of redemption, special and relative rights as to dividends and other distributions and on liquidation, conversion rights, and conditions under which the series shall have separate voting rights or no voting rights. The term for which the Trust is to exist commenced on the date of the filing of the Certificate of Trust, and the Trust, the Funds, and any additional series created in the future will exist in perpetuity, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions of the Trust Agreement. Separate and distinct records shall be maintained for each Fund and the assets associated with a Fund shall be held in such separate and distinct records (directly or indirectly, including a nominee or otherwise) and accounted for in such separate and distinct records separately from the assets of any other series. The Funds and each future series will be separate from all such series in respect of the assets and liabilities allocated to a Fund and each separate series and will represent a separate investment portfolio of the Trust.
The sole Trustee of the Trust is Wilmington Trust, N.A. (the “Trustee”), and the Trustee serves as the Trust’s corporate trustee as required under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act (“DSTA”). The Trustee’s principal offices are located at 1100 North Market Street, Wilmington, Delaware 19890. The Trustee is unaffiliated with the Sponsor.

On March 9, 2018, the initial Form S-1 for BDRY was declared effective by the SEC. On March 21, 2018, two Creation Baskets were issued for the Fund, representing 100,000 shares and $2,500,000. The Fund began trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) Arca on March 22, 2018.
On April 28, 2023, the form S-1 for BWET was declared effective by the SEC. On May 1, 2023, eight Creation Baskets were issued for the Fund, representing 200,000 shares and $3,000,000. The Fund began trading on the NYSE Arca on May 3, 2023.
Each Fund is designed and managed to track the performance of a portfolio (a “Benchmark Portfolio”) consisting of futures contracts (the “Benchmark Component Instruments”).
Results of Operations
BDRY commenced investment operations on March 22, 2018 at $25.00 per Share. The Shares have been trading on the NYSE Arca since March 22, 2018 under the symbol “BDRY.”
BWET commenced investment operations on May 3, 2023 at $15.00 per Share. The Shares have been trading on the NYSE Arca since May 3, 2023 under the symbol “BWET.”
Each Fund seeks to track the daily return of the Benchmark Portfolio, over time, plus the excess, if any, of the Funds’ interest income from its holdings over the expenses of the Fund.
The following graphs illustrate changes in (i) the price of each Fund’s Shares (reflected, as applicable, by the graphs “Comparison of Per Share BDRY NAV to BDRY Market Value for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025”, “Comparison of Per Share BDRY NAV to BDRY Market Value for the Year Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025”, “Comparison of Per Share BWET NAV to BWET Market Value for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025”, and “Comparison of Per Share BWET NAV to BWET Market Value for the Year Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025”) and (ii) each Fund’s NAV(as reflected by the graphs “Comparison of BDRY NAV to Benchmark Index for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025”, “Comparison of BDRY NAV to Benchmark Index for the Year Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025”, “Comparison of BWET NAV to Benchmark Index for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025”, and “Comparison of BWET NAV to Benchmark Index for the Year Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025).”
Each Benchmark Portfolio is frictionless, in that it does not take into account fees or expenses associated with investing in the applicable Fund. The performance of the Funds involves friction, in that fees and expenses impose a drag on performance.
Breakwave Dry Bulk Shipping ETF
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026, dry bulk spot rates demonstrated robust performance, with benchmark Capesize rates consistently sustained well above breakeven levels. The convergence of positive demand growth in dry bulk transportation and severe disruptions to vessel supply, driven by both geopolitical events and cyclical factors, yielded one of the strongest markets for dry bulk owners in recent years. Over the 12-month period ending June 30, 2026, the Baltic Dry Index averaged approximately 2,200 points, marking its strongest performance in three years.

Despite relatively muted growth in the Chinese economy, particularly within the critical real estate sector, iron ore imports to China continued to expand even as domestic steel demand recorded another annual decline. This divergence between two highly interdependent commodities is attributable to significant iron ore inventory accumulation, falling domestic ore production, and a structural shift toward more affordable, lower-grade material, which requires greater volume to achieve equivalent steel output. While these conditions are unsustainable over the long term, the current landscape is expected to continue supporting high volumes of iron ore imports into the country.
Concurrently, emerging iron ore exports from West Africa following the highly anticipated commissioning of the Simandou project, coupled with robust regional bauxite exports, are extending average sailing distances (ton-mile demand). This development has effectively reduced available vessel capacity across the global fleet.
Furthermore, ongoing geopolitical developments in the Middle East are indirectly impacting the dry bulk shipping sector. Fuel availability has become a critical challenge for numerous vessel operators, resulting in extended waiting times and substantial route diversions to secure bunker fuel. Finally, because a large segment of the global dry bulk fleet is approaching its 15-year special survey, drydocking requirements have exceeded historical annual averages, further tightening available vessel supply.
The convergence of these variables serves as the primary catalyst for the strong dry bulk market observed over the past 12 months. While the continuation of these tailwinds depends on several variables, upcoming newbuild deliveries are gradually accelerating fleet growth beyond projected demand growth, a trend that needs monitoring as it could ultimately cap further rate appreciation.
Differences in the benchmark return and BDRY net asset value per share are due primarily to the following factors:
| ● | Benchmark portfolio uses settlement prices of freight futures vs. BDRY closing share price for BDRY. |
| ● | Benchmark portfolio roll methodology assumes rolls that happen evenly at fractions of lots vs. BDRY that transacts at real minimum lot size available pursuant to market practice (5 lots minimum). |
| ● | Benchmark portfolio assumes rolls that are happening at daily settlement prices vs. BDRY that transacts at prevailing prices during the day that might or might not be equal to settlement prices. |
| ● | Benchmark portfolio assumes no trading commissions vs. BDRY that pays 10bps of nominal value in commissions per transaction. |
| ● | Benchmark portfolio assumes no clearing fees vs BDRY that pays approximately $12 per lot in clearing fees per transaction. |
| ● | Benchmark portfolio assumes no management fees vs. BDRY fee structure. |
| ● | Creations and redemptions that lead to transactions in the freight futures market might occur at prices that might be different versus the settlement prices. |

Breakwave Tanker Shipping ETF
During the reporting period ended June 30, 2026, crude tanker spot rates exhibited extreme volatility, with spot rates for Very Large Crude Carriers (VLCCs) reaching unprecedented historical peaks as a direct consequence of the U.S.–Iran conflict that commenced in March 2026. Given the VLCC sector’s heavy exposure to the Middle East, the operational impact of the Strait of Hormuz closure drove spot freight rates to extraordinary levels, driven by shipowners demanding a substantial risk premium to transit an active combat zone. This severe geopolitical disruption, characterized by near-daily attacks on commercial shipping lanes, has decoupled spot rates from standard supply-and-demand fundamentals, which would otherwise point to a significantly lower equilibrium.
27
While global oil demand and vessel capacity historically served as the primary drivers of tanker markets, the past six months have seen market dynamics shift decisively toward geopolitical risk factors. Consequently, the near-term outlook for tanker freight rates remains highly contingent upon political developments in the Middle East and the trajectory of the U.S.–Iran conflict. Traditional fundamental metrics currently imply a much softer freight environment, rendering conventional supply-demand modeling unreliable for accurate forecasting. Accordingly, the probability of a sharp correction in freight rates remains exceptionally high; once regional hostilities cease and normal transits resume through the Strait of Hormuz, freight rates are widely projected to decline sharply from their current elevated baselines.
A critical downside risk to the medium-term tanker outlook is the pronounced softening of Chinese oil demand, alongside questions regarding its structural persistence beyond any eventual normalization in the Middle East. China remains the primary global demand center for crude oil transportation, yet its recent maritime import volumes contracted to their lowest levels in at least eight years. While it remains unclear whether this demand destruction is cyclical or indicative of a permanent structural shift, the risk of a structurally lower import baseline must be factored into future projections. Overall, the expectation for a significant downward correction in tanker freight rates over the medium term remains highly probable, necessitating continuous, close monitoring of both geopolitical developments and underlying industry supply-demand fundamentals.
Differences in the benchmark return and BWET net asset value per share are due primarily to the following factors:
| ● | Benchmark portfolio uses settlement prices of freight futures vs. BWET closing share price for BWET. |
| ● | Benchmark portfolio roll methodology assumes rolls that happen evenly at fractions of lots vs. BWET that transacts at real minimum lot size available pursuant to market practice (5 lots minimum). |

| ● | Benchmark portfolio assumes no clearing fees vs BWET that pays approximately $11 per lot in clearing fees per transaction. |
| ● | Benchmark portfolio assumes no management fees vs. BWET fee structure. |
| ● | Creations and redemptions that lead to transactions in the freight futures market might occur at prices that might be different versus the settlement prices. |

Critical Accounting Estimates
Preparation of the combined financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires the application of appropriate accounting rules and guidance, as well as the use of estimates. Each Fund’s application of these policies involves judgments and the use of estimates. Actual results may differ from the estimates used and such differences could be material. The Funds hold a significant portion of their assets in futures contracts and money market funds, which are held at fair value.
There were no material estimates, which involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and had or are reasonably likely to have had a material impact on the Funds’ financial condition, used in the preparation of these combined financial statements.
34
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Funds do not anticipate making use of borrowings or other lines of credit to meet their obligations. The Funds meet their liquidity needs in the normal course of business from the proceeds of the sale of their investments or from the cash, and cash equivalents that they hold. The Funds’ liquidity needs include: redeeming their shares, providing margin deposits for existing Benchmark Component Instruments, the purchase of additional Benchmark Component Instruments, and paying expenses.
The Funds generate cash primarily from (i) the sale of Creation Baskets and (ii) interest earned on cash, and cash equivalents. Generally, all of the net assets of the Funds are allocated to trading in Benchmark Component Instruments. Most of the assets of the Funds are held in Freight Futures, cash and/or cash equivalents that could or are used as margin or collateral for trading in Benchmark Component Instruments. The percentage that such assets bear to the total net assets will vary from period to period as the market values of the Benchmark Component Instruments change. Interest earned on interest-bearing assets of the Funds is paid to the Funds. Please refer to the Statement of Operations for interest income received for the years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
The investments of the Funds in Benchmark Component Instruments could be subject to periods of illiquidity because of market conditions, regulatory considerations and other reasons. Such conditions could prevent the Funds from promptly liquidating a position in Benchmark Component Instruments. Commodity exchanges may limit fluctuations in certain futures contract prices during a single day by regulations referred to as “daily limits.” During a single day, no futures trades may be executed at prices beyond the daily limit. Once the price of a futures contract has increased or decreased by an amount equal to the daily limit, positions in such futures contracts can neither be taken nor liquidated unless the traders are willing to effect trades at or within the limit. Futures contract prices have occasionally moved to the daily limit for several consecutive days with little or no trading. Such market conditions could prevent the Funds from promptly liquidating their futures positions.
Because the Funds trade futures contracts, their capital is at risk due to changes in the value of these contracts (market risk) or the inability of counter-parties to perform under the terms of the contracts (credit risk).
Market Risk
Trading in Benchmark Component Instruments such as futures contracts will involve the Funds entering into contractual commitments to purchase or sell specific amounts of instruments at a specified date in the future. The gross or face amount of the contracts is expected to significantly exceed the future cash requirements of the Funds as the Funds intend to close out any open positions prior to the contractual expiration date. As a result, the Funds’ market risk is the risk of loss arising from the decline in value of the contracts, not from the need to make delivery under the contracts. The Funds consider the “fair value” of derivative instruments to be the unrealized gain or loss on the contracts. The market risk associated with the commitment by the Funds to purchase a specific contract will be limited to the aggregate face amount of the contracts held.
The exposure of the Funds to market risk will depend on a number of factors including the markets for the specific instrument, the volatility of interest rates and foreign exchange rates, the liquidity of the instrument-specific market and the relationships among the contracts held by the Funds.
35
Credit Risk
When the Funds enters into Benchmark Component Instruments, they will be exposed to the credit risk that the counterparty will not be able to meet its obligations. For purposes of credit risk, the counterparty for the Benchmark Component Instruments traded on or cleared by the futures exchanges is the clearinghouse associated with those exchanges. In general, clearinghouses are backed by their members who may be required to share in the financial burden resulting from the nonperformance of one of their members, which should significantly reduce credit risk. There can be no assurance that any counterparty, clearinghouse, or their financial backers will satisfy their obligations to the Funds.
The Sponsor will attempt to minimize certain of these market and credit risks by normally:
| ● | executing and clearing trades with creditworthy counterparties, as determined by the Sponsor; |
| ● | limiting the outstanding amounts due from counterparties of the Funds; |
| ● | not posting margin directly with a counterparty; and |
| ● | limiting the amount of margin or premium posted at the FCM. |
The Commodity Exchange Act (“CEA”) requires all FCMs, such as the Funds’ clearing brokers, to meet and maintain specified fitness and financial requirements, to segregate customer funds from proprietary funds and account separately for all customers’ funds and positions, and to maintain specified books and records open to inspection by the staff of the CFTC. The CFTC has similar authority over introducing brokers, or persons who solicit or accept orders for commodity interest trades but who do not accept margin deposits for the execution of trades. The CEA authorizes the CFTC to regulate trading by FCMs and by their officers and directors, permits the CFTC to require action by exchanges in the event of market emergencies, and establishes an administrative procedure under which customers may institute complaints for damages arising from alleged violations of the CEA. The CEA also gives the states powers to enforce its provisions and the regulations of the CFTC.
On November 14, 2013, the CFTC published final regulations that require enhanced customer protections, risk management programs, internal monitoring and controls, capital and liquidity standards, customer disclosures and auditing and examination programs for FCMs. The rules are intended to afford greater assurances to market participants that customer segregated funds and secured amounts are protected, customers are provided with appropriate notice of the risks of futures trading and of the FCMs with which they may choose to do business, FCMs are monitoring and managing risks in a robust manner, the capital and liquidity of FCMs are strengthened to safeguard the continued operations and the auditing and examination programs of the CFTC and the self-regulatory organizations are monitoring the activities of FCMs in a thorough manner.
36
Off Balance Sheet Financing
As of June 30, 2026, neither the Trust nor the Funds have any loan guarantees, credit support or other off-balance sheet arrangements of any kind other than agreements entered into in the normal course of business, which may include indemnification provisions relating to certain risks service providers undertake in performing services which are in the best interests of the Funds. While the exposure of the Funds under these indemnification provisions cannot be estimated, they are not expected to have a material impact on the financial position of the Funds.
Redemption Basket Obligation
Other than as necessary to meet the investment objective of the Funds and pay the contractual obligations described below, the Funds will require liquidity to redeem Redemption Baskets. The Funds intend to satisfy this obligation through the transfer of cash of the Funds (generated, if necessary, through the sale of Freight Futures) in an amount proportionate to the number of Shares being redeemed.
Contractual Obligations
The primary contractual obligations of the Funds will be with the Sponsor and certain other service providers.
Breakwave Dry Bulk Shipping ETF
BDRY pays a Sponsor Fee, monthly in arrears, in an amount equal to the greater of (i) 0.15% per year of the Fund’s average daily net assets; or (ii) $125,000. The Sponsor Fee is paid in consideration of the Sponsor’s management services to the Fund. BDRY also pays Breakwave a license and service fee (the “CTA Fee”) monthly in arrears, for the use of BDRY’s Benchmark Portfolio in an amount equal to 1.45% per annum of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
Breakwave Tanker Shipping ETF
BWET pays a Sponsor Fee, monthly in arrears, in an amount equal to the greater of (i) 0.30% per year of the Fund’s average daily net assets; or (ii) $50,000. The Sponsor Fee is paid in consideration of the Sponsor’s management services to the Fund. BWET also pays Breakwave a license and service fee (the “CTA Fee”) monthly in arrears, for the use of BWET’s Benchmark Portfolio in an amount equal to 1.45% per annum of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
Both Funds
Breakwave has agreed to waive its license and services fee and the Sponsor has agreed to correspondingly assume the remaining expenses of the Funds so that each Fund’s expenses do not exceed an annual rate of 3.50%, excluding brokerage commissions, interest expense, and extraordinary expenses, of the value of the Funds ‘average daily net assets (the “Expense Cap”). The assumption of expenses and waiver of the license and services fee are contractual on the part of the Sponsor and Breakwave, respectively, through December 31, 2026. If after that date, the Sponsor and/or Breakwave no longer assumed expenses or waived the CTA Fee, respectively, the Funds could be adversely impacted, including in their ability to achieve their investment objectives.
37
The Funds currently accrue their daily expenses based on accrued expense amounts established and monitored by the Sponsor, subject to the Expense Cap. At the end of each month, the accrued amount is remitted to the Sponsor as the Sponsor has assumed, and is responsible for the payment of, the routine operational, administrative and other ordinary expenses of the Funds.
Each Funds’ ongoing fees, costs and expenses of its operation, not subject to the Expense Cap include brokerage, brokerage interest and regulatory capital charges and other fees and commissions incurred in connection with the trading activities of the Funds, and extraordinary expenses (including, but not limited to, legal claims and liabilities and litigation costs and any indemnification related thereto). Expenses subject to the Expense Cap include (i) expenses incurred in connection with registering additional Shares of the Funds or offering Shares of the Funds; (ii) the routine expenses associated with the preparation and, if required, the printing and mailing of monthly, quarterly, annual and other reports required by applicable U.S. federal and state regulatory authorities, Trust meetings and preparing, printing and mailing proxy statements to Shareholders; (iii) the routine services of the Trustee, legal counsel and independent accountants; (iv) routine accounting, bookkeeping, custodial and transfer agency services, whether performed by an outside service provider or by affiliates of the Sponsor; (v) postage and insurance; (vi) costs and expenses associated with client relations and services; (vii) costs of preparation of all federal, state, local and foreign tax returns and any taxes payable on the income, assets or operations of the Funds.
While the Sponsor has agreed to pay registration fees to the SEC and any other regulatory agency in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares offered through each Fund’s prospectus, the legal, printing, accounting and other expenses associated with such registration, and the initial fee of $7,500 for listing the Shares on the NYSE Arca, each Fund will be responsible for any registration fees and related expenses incurred in connection with any future offer and sale of Shares of the Funds in excess of those offered through its prospectus.
Any general expenses of the Trust will be allocated among the Funds and any other series of the Trust as determined by the Sponsor in its sole and absolute discretion. The Trust is also responsible for extraordinary expenses, including, but not limited to, legal claims and liabilities and litigation costs and any indemnification related thereto. The Trust and/or the Sponsor may be required to indemnify the Trustee, Distributor or Administrator under certain circumstances.
The parties cannot anticipate the amount of payments that will be required under these arrangements for future periods as the NAV and trading levels to meet investment objectives for the Funds will not be known until a future date. These agreements are effective for a specific term agreed upon by the parties with an option to renew, or, in some cases, are in effect for the duration of a Fund’s existence. The parties may terminate these agreements earlier for certain reasons listed in the agreements.

Notes to Combined Financial Statements
June 30, 2026 and 2025
(1) Organization
Amplify Commodity Trust (the “Trust”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on July 23, 2014. Effective after the close of trading on February 14, 2024, ETF Managers Capital LLC, as the prior sponsor and commodity pool operator (the “Former Sponsor”) of the Trust, entered into an agreement (the “Transfer Agreement”) to resign as Sponsor to the Trust and transfer its role as the Trust’s sponsor to Amplify Investments LLC (“the Sponsor.”) Under the terms of the Transfer Agreement, the Former Sponsor no longer has any involvement in the operations, management or marketing of the Fund. In connection with this change of Sponsor, Trust changed its name from the ETF Managers Group Commodity Trust I to the Amplify Commodity Trust. The Trust is a series trust formed pursuant to the Delaware Statutory Trust Act and currently consists of two separate series. BREAKWAVE DRY BULK SHIPPING ETF (“BDRY”), is the first series of the Trust and is a commodity pool that continuously issues shares of beneficial interest that may be purchased and sold on the NYSE Arca. The second series of the Trust, BREAKWAVE TANKER SHIPPING ETF (“BWET”), each a “Fund” and together with BDRY, the “Funds”), is also a commodity pool that continuously issues shares of beneficial interest that may be purchased and sold on the NYSE Arca. The Funds are managed and controlled by the Sponsor, a Delaware limited liability company. The Sponsor is registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) as a “commodity pool operator” (“CPO”) and is a member of the National Futures Association (“NFA”). Breakwave Advisors, LLC (“Breakwave”) is registered as a “commodity trading advisor” (“CTA”) with the CFTC and serves as the Funds commodity trading advisor.
BDRY commenced investment operations on March 22, 2018. BDRY commenced trading on the NYSE Arca on March 22, 2018 and trades under the symbol “BDRY.”
BDRY’s investment objective is to provide investors with exposure to the daily change in the price of dry bulk freight futures, before expenses and liabilities of BDRY, by tracking the performance of a portfolio (the “BDRY Benchmark Portfolio”) consisting of a three-month strip of the nearest calendar quarter of futures contracts on specified indexes (each a “Reference Index”) that measure rates for shipping dry bulk freight (“Freight Futures”). Each Reference Index is published each United Kingdom business day by the London-based Baltic Exchange Ltd. (the “Baltic Exchange”) and measures the charter rate for shipping dry bulk freight in a specific size category of cargo ship – Capesize, Panamax or Supramax. The three Reference Indexes are as follows:
| ● | Capesize: the Capesize 5TC Index; |
| ● | Panamax: the Panamax 5TC Index; and |
| ● | Supramax: the Supramax 10TC Index. |
The value of the Capesize 5TC Index is disseminated at 11:00 a.m., London Time and the value of the Panamax 5TC Index and the Supramax 10TC Index each is disseminated at 1:00 p.m., London Time. The Reference Index information disseminated by the Baltic Exchange also includes the components and value of each component in each Reference Index. Such Reference Index information also is widely disseminated by Reuters and/or other major market data vendors.
BDRY seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing substantially all of its assets in the Freight Futures currently constituting the BDRY Benchmark Portfolio. The BDRY Benchmark Portfolio includes all existing positions to maturity and settles them in cash. During any given calendar quarter, the BDRY Benchmark Portfolio progressively increases its positions to the next calendar quarter three-month strip, thus maintaining constant exposure to the Freight Futures market as positions mature.

BDRY was created to provide investors with a cost-effective and convenient way to gain exposure to daily changes in the price of Freight Futures. BDRY is intended to be used as a diversification opportunity as part of a complete portfolio, not a complete investment program.
The Fund will incur certain expenses in connection with its operations. The Fund will hold cash or cash equivalents such as U.S. Treasuries or other high credit quality, short-term fixed-income or similar securities for direct investment or as collateral for the Freight futures and for other liquidity purposes and to meet redemptions that may be necessary on an ongoing basis. These expenses and income from the cash and cash equivalent holdings may cause imperfect correlation between changes in the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) and changes in the Benchmark Portfolio, because the Benchmark Portfolio does not reflect expenses or income. The Fund may also realize interest income from its holdings in U.S. Treasuries or other market rate instruments.
The Fund seeks to trade its positions prior to maturity; accordingly, natural market forces may cost the Fund while rebalancing. Each time the Fund seeks to reconstitute its positions, barring movement in the underlying securities, the futures and option prices may be higher or lower. Such differences in price, barring a movement in the price of the underlying security, will constitute “roll yield” and may inhibit the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.
Several factors determine the total return from investing in a futures contract position. One factor that impacts the total return that will result from investing in near month futures contracts and “rolling” those contracts forward each month is the price relationship between the current near month contract and the next month contract.
The CTA will close existing positions when it determines it would be appropriate to do so and reinvest the proceeds in other positions. Positions may also be closed out to meet orders for redemption baskets.
BWET commenced investment operations on May 3, 2023. BWET commenced trading on NYSE Arca on May 3, 2023 and trades under the symbol “BWET.”
BWET’s investment objective is to provide investors with exposure to the daily change in the price of crude oil tanker freight futures, before expenses and liabilities of the Fund, by tracking the performance of a portfolio (the “BWET Benchmark Portfolio”) mainly consisting of the nearest calendar quarter of futures contracts on specified indexes (each a “Reference Index”) that measure prices for shipping crude oil (“Freight Futures”). Freight Futures reflect market expectations for the future cost of transporting crude oil. Each Reference Index is published each United Kingdom business day by the London-based Baltic Exchange Ltd. (the “Baltic Exchange”) and measures the charter rate for crude oil in a specific size category of cargo ship and for a specific route. The two Reference Indexes are as follows:
| ● | The TD3C Index: Middle East to China, 270,000mt cargo (Very Large Crude Carrier or VLCC tankers); |
| ● | The TD20 Index: West Africa to Europe, 130,000mt cargo (Suezmax Tankers) |

The CTA will close existing positions when it determines it would be appropriate to do so and reinvest the proceeds in other positions. Positions may also be closed out to meet orders for redemption baskets.
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Basis of Accounting
The accompanying combined financial statements of the Funds have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Each Fund qualifies as an investment company for financial reporting purposes under Topic 946 of the Accounting Standard Codification of U.S. GAAP.

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Continued
(b) Use of Estimates
The preparation of the combined financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the combined financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. There were no significant estimates used in the preparation of the combined financial statements.
(c) Cash
Cash, when shown in the Combined Statements of Assets and Liabilities, represents non-segregated cash with the custodian and does not include short-term investments.
(d) Cash Held by Broker
Breakwave is registered as a “commodity trading advisor” and acts as such for the Funds. The Funds’ arrangement with its FCM requires the Funds to meet their variation margin requirement related to the price movements, both positive and negative, on futures contracts held by the Funds by keeping cash on deposit with the Commodity Broker (as defined below). These amounts are shown as segregated cash held by broker in the Combined Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Each Fund deposits cash or United States Treasury Obligations, as applicable, with the FCM subject to the CFTC regulations and various exchange and broker requirements. The combination of each Fund’s deposits with the FCM of cash and United States Treasury Obligations, as applicable, and the unrealized gain or loss on open futures contracts (variation margin) represents each Fund’s overall equity in its brokerage trading account. The Funds use their cash held by the FCM to satisfy individual variation margin requirements. The Funds earn interest on their cash deposited with the FCM and interest income is recorded on the accrual basis.
(e) Final Net Asset Value for Fiscal Period
The calculation time of the Fund’s final net asset value for creation and redemption of Fund shares for the years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively.
Although the Fund’s shares may continue to trade on secondary markets subsequent to the calculation of the final NAV, the 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time represented the final opportunity to transact in creation or redemption baskets for the years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
Fair value per share is determined at the close of the NYSE Arca.
For financial reporting purposes, each Fund values its investment positions based upon the final closing price in their primary markets. Accordingly, the investment valuations in these combined financial statements differ from those used in the calculations of the Fund’s final creation/redemption NAVs at June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively.
(f) Investment Valuation
Short-term investments, excluding U.S. Treasury Bills, are carried at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. U.S. Treasury Bills, when held by the Funds, are valued as determined by an independent pricing service based on methods which include consideration of: yields or prices of securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type; indications as to values from dealers; and general market conditions. Money market investments are valued at their traded net asset value.
Futures and options contracts are valued at the last settled price on the applicable exchange on which that futures and/or options contract trades.

(g) Financial Instruments and Fair Value
Each Fund discloses the fair value of its investments in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) fair value measurement and disclosure guidance which requires a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The disclosure requirements establish a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between: (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from sources independent to the Fund (observable inputs); and (2) the Fund’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available under the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The three levels defined by the disclosure requirements hierarchy are as follows:
| Level I: | Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. |
| Level II: | Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level I that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level II inputs include the following: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market-corroborated inputs). |
| Level III: | Unobservable pricing input at the measurement date for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs shall be used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available. |
In some instances, the inputs used to measure fair value might fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls shall be determined based on the lowest input level that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
Fair value measurements also require additional disclosure when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased, as well as when circumstances indicate that a transaction is not orderly.

The inputs or methodology used for valuing investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
h) Investment Transactions and Related Income
Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. All such transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis and marked to market daily. Unrealized gain/loss on open futures contracts is reflected in Receivable/Payable on open futures contracts in the Combined Statements of Assets and Liabilities and the change in the unrealized gain/loss between periods is reflected in the Combined Statements of Operations. The Funds interest earned on short-term securities and on cash deposited with Marex Financial Ltd. is accrued daily and reflected as Interest Income, when applicable, in the Combined Statements of Operations.
(i) Federal Income Taxes
Each Fund is registered as a Delaware statutory trust and is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Funds do not expect to incur U.S. federal income tax liability; rather, each beneficial owner is required to take into account their allocable share of the Funds’ income, gain, loss, deductions and other items for the Funds’ taxable year ending with or within the beneficial owner’s taxable year.
Management of the Funds has reviewed the open tax years and major jurisdictions and concluded that there is no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in future tax returns at June 30, 2026 and 2025. The Funds are also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. On an ongoing basis, management will monitor its tax positions taken to determine if adjustments to its conclusions are necessary based on factors including, but not limited to, further implementation of guidance expected from the FASB and on-going analysis of tax law, regulation, and interpretations thereof. The Funds’ federal tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years after they are filed.
(j) New Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures”, which improves reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The Funds operate as single segment entities. The Funds’ income, expenses, assets, and performance are regularly monitored and assessed by the executive committee of the Sponsor, who serve as the chief operating decision makers, using the information presented in the financial statements and financial highlights.

(3) Investments
(a) Short -Term Investments
The Funds may purchase U.S. Treasury Bills, agency securities, and other high-credit quality short-term fixed income or similar securities with original maturities of one year or less. A portion of these investments may be used as margin for the Funds’ trading in futures contracts.
(b) Accounting for Derivative Instruments
In seeking to achieve each Fund’s investment objective, the commodity trading advisor uses a mathematical approach to investing. Using this approach, the commodity trading advisor determines the type, quantity and mix of investment positions that it believes in combination should produce returns consistent with the Fund’s objective.
All open derivative positions at June 30, 2026 and 2025, as applicable, are disclosed in the Combined Schedules of Investments and the notional value of these open positions relative to the shareholders’ capital of the Funds is generally representative of the notional value of open positions to shareholders’ capital throughout the reporting periods for the Funds. The volume associated with derivative positions varies on a daily basis as the Funds transact in derivative contracts in order to achieve the appropriate exposure, as expressed in notional value, in comparison to shareholders’ capital consistent with the applicable Fund’s investment objective.
Following is a description of the derivative instruments used by the Funds during the reporting period, including the primary underlying risk exposures.
(c) Futures Contracts
The Funds enter into futures contracts to gain exposure to changes in the value of the Benchmark Portfolios. A futures contract obligates the seller to deliver (and the purchaser to accept) the future cash settlement of a specified quantity and type of a freight futures contract at a specified time and place. The contractual obligations of a buyer or seller of a freight futures contract may generally be satisfied by making an offsetting sale or purchase of an identical futures contract on the same or linked exchange before the designated date of delivery.
Upon entering into a futures contract, the Funds are required to deposit and maintain as collateral at least such initial margin as required by the exchange on which the transaction is affected. The initial margin is segregated as Cash held by broker, as disclosed in the Combined Statements of Assets and Liabilities and is restricted as to its use. Pursuant to the futures contract, the Funds agree to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the futures contract. Such receipts or payments are known as variation margin and are recorded by the Funds as unrealized gains or losses. The Funds will realize a gain or loss upon closing a futures transaction.
Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, elements of market risk (specifically freight futures price risk) and exposure to loss in excess of the amount of variation margin. The face or contract amounts reflect the extent of the total exposure the Funds have in the particular classes of instruments. Additional risks associated with the use of futures contracts include imperfect correlation between movements in the price of the futures contracts and the market value of the underlying securities and the possibility of an illiquid market for a futures contract. With futures contracts, there is minimal counterparty risk to the Funds since futures contracts are exchange-traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange-traded futures contracts, guarantees the futures contracts against default.

(6) Risk
(a) Investment Related Risk
The NAV of each Fund’s shares relates directly to the value of the respective freight futures portfolio, cash and cash equivalents held by each Fund. Fluctuations in the prices of these assets could materially adversely affect the values and performance of an investment in BDRY and BWET shares. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results; all or substantially all of an investment in BDRY or BWET could be lost.
The NAV of BDRY and BWET shares relates directly to the value of the futures investments held by each Fund which are materially impacted by fluctuations in changes in spot charter rates. Charter rates for dry bulk vessels and crude oil tankers are highly volatile, may rapidly decrease and may remain at low levels in the future.
Futures and options contracts have expiration dates. Before or upon the expiration of a contract, BDRY and/or BWET may be required to enter into replacement contracts that are priced higher or that have less favorable terms than the contracts being replaced (see “Negative Roll Risk,” below). The Freight Futures market settles in cash against published indices, so there is no physical delivery against the futures contracts.
Similar to other futures contracts, the Freight Futures curve shape could be either in “contango” (where the futures curve is upward sloping with next futures price higher than the current one) or “backwardation” (where each of the next futures price is lower than the current one). Contango curves are generally characterized by negative roll cost, as the expiring contract value is lower than the next prompt contract value, assuming the same lot size. That means there could be losses incurred when the contracts are rolled each period (“Negative Roll Risk”) and such losses are independent of the Freight Futures price level.
The ongoing US-Iran conflict has led to major disruptions in oil flows out of the Middle East. The Strait of Hormuz, one of the most important waterways in the world, has seen a major disruption when it comes to vessel transits. As a result, freight rates for tankers have seen significant increases not only for vessels originating in the Middle East but around the globe due to heightened risk but also due to price dislocation in crude oil and related energy products. The disruption in oil flows has so far led to rapid increases in freight rates, but as long as the disruption persists, the risk of much lower rates is increasing as there is declining amount of oil shipped given the disruption. Spot freight rates might remain extremely volatile leading to significant volatility in freight futures. In addition, any resolution to the conflict and normalization of trade could lead to major and sharp declines in tanker freight rates and as a result in tanker freight futures. Although dry bulk rates remain relatively immune to the regional conflict as the amount of dry bulk cargo moving through the Straits of Hormuz is not significant versus other regions, the economic impact might affect global demand for commodities and thus lead to a decline in dry bulk freight rates.
Overall, the ongoing US-Iran conflict and the uncertainty relating to the timing and the matter of resolution remains a substantial risk to shipping and to freight rates and should continue to lead to extremely high volatility in tanker freight rates as well as tanker freight futures. The resulting volatility could greatly affect the value of BWET and could lead to significant and rapid decline in the value of the Fund and, to a smaller extent, also affect the value of BDRY.

(6) Risk - Continued
(a) Investment Related Risk - Continued
The Russia Ukraine war continues to pose an increasing risk for global economic growth. Major economic sanctions against Russia are having a considerable impact on oil and gas prices, given the dependence of the EU on oil and gas exports out of Russia combined with limited spare capacity of such commodities globally. Energy price volatility has increased significantly, leading to inflationary pressures in the major developed countries that rely heavily on oil and gas exports out of Russia. In addition, disruptions in oil supply could lead to a drop in oil volumes been shipped and as a result a decline in demand for oil transportation. Such a decline could negatively affect tanker freight rates and as a result could negatively affect the price of BWET.
The announcements of tariffs on import goods by the US as well as corresponding increase in tariffs by other countries can have a meaningful negative impact on trade volumes, which could have a material adverse impact on shipping rates. As tariffs lead to less imports and exports, demand for transportation could potentially decrease leading to lower shipping rates. Such negative impact could affect both dry bulk and tanker rates alike. The impact of the implementation of higher tariffs around the globe on dry bulk shipping and tanker shipping will be negative, all else equal, leading to lower spot rates and as a result lower freight futures prices and a decline in the value of BDRY as well as BWET.
In addition, The People’s Republic of China (“China”) accounts for a sizable part of oil demand, and changes in the economic and political environment in China and policies adopted by the government to regulate its economy may have a material adverse effect on tanker charter rates and as a result, Freight Futures.
(b) Liquidity Risk
In certain circumstances, such as the disruption of the orderly markets for the futures contracts or Financial Instruments in which the Fund invest, the Funds might not be able to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent what the market value may have been in an orderly market. Futures and option positions cannot always be liquidated at the desired price. It is difficult to execute a trade at a specific price when there is a relatively small volume of buy and sell orders in a market. A market disruption can also make it difficult to liquidate a position. The large size of the positions that the Funds may acquire increases the risk of illiquidity both by making its positions more difficult to liquidate and by potentially increasing losses while trying to do so. Such a situation may prevent the Funds from limiting losses, realizing gains or achieving a high correlation with the applicable Benchmark Portfolio.

June 30, 2026 and 2025
(6) Risk - Continued
(c) Natural Disaster/Epidemic Risk
Natural or environmental disasters, such as earthquakes, fires, floods, hurricanes, tsunamis and other severe weather-related phenomena generally, and widespread disease, including pandemics and epidemics (for example, the novel coronavirus COVID-19), have been and can be highly disruptive to economies and markets and have recently led, and may continue to lead, to increased market volatility and significant market losses. Such natural disaster and health crises could exacerbate political, social, and economic risks previously mentioned, and result in significant breakdowns, delays, shutdowns, social isolation, and other disruptions to important global, local and regional supply chains affected, with potential corresponding results on the operating performance of the Funds and their investments. A climate of uncertainty and panic, including the contagion of infectious viruses or diseases, may adversely affect global, regional, and local economies and reduce the availability of potential investment opportunities, and increases the difficulty of performing due diligence and modeling market conditions, potentially reducing the accuracy of financial projections. Under these circumstances, the Funds may have difficulty achieving their investment objectives which may adversely impact performance. Further, such events can be highly disruptive to economies and markets, significantly disrupt the operations of individual companies (including, but not limited to, the Funds’ Sponsor and third party service providers), sectors, industries, markets, securities and commodity exchanges, currencies, interest and inflation rates, credit ratings, investor sentiment, and other factors affecting the value of the Funds’ investments. These factors can cause substantial market volatility. Exchange trading suspensions and closures can impact on the ability of the Funds to complete redemptions and otherwise affect each Fund’s performance and the Funds’ trading in the secondary market. A widespread crisis may also affect the global economy in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen at the current time. How long such events will last and whether they will continue or recur cannot be predicted. Impacts from these events could have significant impact on the Funds’ performance, resulting in losses to the Funds.
(7) Profit and Loss Allocations and Distributions
Pursuant to the Trust Agreement, income and expenses of the Funds are allocated pro rata among the Shareholders monthly based on their respective percentage interests as of the close of the last trading day of the preceding month.
Any losses allocated to the Sponsor which are in excess of the Sponsor’s capital balance are allocated to the Shareholders in accordance with their respective interest in the applicable Fund as a percentage of total Shareholders’ capital. Distributions (other than redemption of units) may be made at the sole discretion of the Sponsor on a pro rata basis in accordance with the respective interests of the Shareholders.
(8) Indemnifications
The Sponsor, either in its own capacity or in its capacity as the Sponsor and on behalf of the Funds, has entered into various service agreements that contain a variety of representations, or provide indemnification provisions related to certain risks service providers undertake in performing services which are in the best interests of the Funds. As of June 30, 2026, the Funds had not received any claims or incurred any losses pursuant to these agreements and expects the risk of such losses to be remote.
(9) Termination
The term of each Fund is perpetual unless terminated earlier in certain circumstances as described in the applicable Prospectus.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Sponsor of
Amplify Commodity Trust
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying combined statements of assets and liabilities, including the combined schedules of investments and futures contracts, of Breakwave Dry Bulk Shipping ETF and Breakwave Tanker Shipping ETF (“the Funds”), each a series of Amplify Commodity Trust, as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, the related combined statements of operations and changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, the results of their operations and changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
Critical Audit Matters Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to management and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.
We have served as the auditor of one or more investment companies advised by Amplify Investments, LLC since 2015.

The duly appointed officers of the Sponsor, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Trust’s , BDRY’s and BWET’s controls and procedures and have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures of the Trust and each BDRY and BWET have been effective as of the end of the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management of the Sponsor, on behalf of the Trust and each BDRY and BWET, are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The internal control system for each of the Trust, BDRY and BWET is designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Sponsor regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
Management of the Sponsor, including Christian Magoon, Principal Executive Officer of the Sponsor, and Bradley H. Bailey, Principal Financial Officer of the Sponsor, who perform functions equivalent to those of a principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Trust if the Trust had any officers, assessed the effectiveness of each of the internal control over financial reporting for each of the Trust, BDRY and BWET as of June 30, 2026. In making this assessment, it used the criteria in the Internal Control - Integrated framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013. Based on the assessment, Management believes that, as of June 30, 2026, the internal control over financial reporting is effective for the Trust and each BDRY and BWET.
The Trust confirms that the certifications of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer filed with this annual report on Form 10-K are applicable to the Trust and each of BDRY and BWET.
Change in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Trust’s, BDRY’s or BWET’s internal control over financial reporting during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Trust’s , BDRY’s or BWET’s internal control over financial reporting.
