SUMMARY PROSPECTUS
June 30, 2025
Before you invest, you may want to review the Fund’s Prospectus, which contains more information about the Fund and its risks. The Fund’s Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information, both dated June 30, 2025, are incorporated by reference into this Summary Prospectus. You can obtain these documents and other information about the Fund online at www.monarchfunds.com. You can also obtain these documents at no cost by calling 1-541-291-4405 or by sending an email request to ordermonarchetfs@ultimusfundsolutions.com. Shares of the Fund are listed and traded on Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (the “Exchange”).
Investment Objective: The Monarch Volume Factor Global Unconstrained Index ETF (the “Fund”) seeks to replicate investment results that generally correspond, before fees and expenses, to the performance of the Monarch Volume Factor Global Unconstrained Index (the “Index”).
Fees and Expenses of the Fund: This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the table and example below.
Annual Fund Operating Expenses (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment) |
|
Management Fees | 0.85% |
Distribution and Service (12b-1) Fees | 0.00% |
Other Expenses | 0.29% |
Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses(1) | 0.28% |
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses | 1.42% |
(1) | Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses are the indirect costs of investing in other investment companies. The operating expenses in this fee table will not correlate to the expense ratio in the Fund’s financial highlights because the financial statements include only the direct operating expenses incurred by the Fund. |
Example: This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other funds.
The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then sell all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based upon these assumptions your costs would be:
1 Year | 3 Years | 5 Years | 10 Years |
$145 | $449 | $776 | $1,702 |
Portfolio Turnover: The Fund pays transaction
costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities
(or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in
higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or
in the Example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the fiscal period ended February 28, 2025, the Fund’s portfolio turnover
rate was 367% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies: The Fund is a fund of funds that invests at least 80% of its total assets in the constituents of the Index. The Index uses a proprietary “Volume Factor” methodology to identify specific areas of the market with positive cash flow. The Index consists of up to 25 equally-weighted equity ETFs that demonstrate positive cash flow. When the cash flow trends are negative, a portion or all of the Index consists of one or more treasury ETFs.
Kingsview Wealth Management LLC (the “Adviser”) is the Index provider. The Index follows a proprietary rules-based methodology that screens the universe of U.S. listed equity ETFs with global exposure (including emerging markets) to select those funds that (i) use no leverage, (ii) are not inverse funds, (iii) have assets under management of at least $50 million and (iv) have over two years of trading history. The Adviser then applies its proprietary “Volume Factor” ranking methodology to identify the areas of the market with positive cash flow. When cash flow trends are positive, the Index consists of ETFs that provide exposure to the areas and sectors of the market that are drawing the strongest cash flows. Based on these factors, the Fund at any given time may have a significant percentage of its assets invested in one or more sectors relative to other sectors. As of February 28, 2025, the Index was not allocated more than 25% to any one individual sector.
When cash flow trends are negative, as measured by trends in large-capitalization stocks and how many stocks are participating in a market decline, the Index consists of treasury ETFs.
The Adviser utilizes a sub-adviser, Penserra Capital Management LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”), to manage the assets of the Fund. The Sub-Adviser uses a replication indexing strategy to manage the Fund. “Replication indexing” is a strategy in which a fund invests in substantially all of the securities in its underlying index in approximately the same proportions as in the underlying index.
The Index is sponsored by Solactive A.G. (“Solactive”), which is independent of the Fund, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser. Solactive calculates and publishes the market value of the Index based on the Index’s constituents. The Index is unmanaged and cannot be invested in directly.
Principal Investment Risks: As with all funds, there is the risk that you could lose money through your investment in the Fund. Many factors affect the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) and performance.
The following describes the risks the Fund bears with respect to its investments. As with any fund, there is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its goal.
Authorized
Participant Risk. Only an authorized participant may engage in creation or redemption transactions directly with the Fund. The Fund
has a limited number of institutions that may act as authorized participants on an agency basis
(i.e., on behalf of other market participants). To the extent that authorized participants exit the business or are unable to proceed
with creation or redemption orders with respect to the Fund and no other authorized participant is able to step forward to create or redeem
Creation Units (as defined below), Fund shares (“Shares”) may be more likely to trade at a premium or discount to net asset
value and possibly face trading halts or delisting. Authorized participant concentration risk may be heightened for ETFs that invest in
non-U.S. securities or other securities or instruments that have lower trading volumes.
Call Risk. During periods of falling interest rates, an issuer of a callable bond held by the underlying ETFs may “call” or repay the security before its stated maturity, and the underlying ETF may have to reinvest the proceeds in securities with lower yields, which would result in a decline in the underlying ETF’s income, or in securities with greater risks or with other less favorable features.
Credit Risk. Debt issuers and other counterparties may be unable or unwilling to make timely interest and/or principal payments when due or otherwise honor their obligations. Changes in an issuer’s credit rating or the market’s perception of an issuer’s creditworthiness may also adversely affect the value of the underlying ETF’s investment in that issuer. The degree of credit risk depends on an issuer’s or counterparty’s financial condition and on the terms of an obligation.
Early Close/Trading Halt Risk. An exchange or market may close or impose a market trading halt or issue trading halts on specific securities, or the ability to buy or sell certain securities or financial instruments may be restricted, which may prevent the Fund from buying or selling certain securities or financial instruments. In these circumstances, the Fund may be unable to rebalance its portfolio, may be unable to accurately price its investments and may incur substantial trading losses.

Emerging Market Risk. Emerging market countries may have relatively unstable governments, weaker economies, and less-developed legal systems with fewer security holder rights. Emerging market economies may be based on only a few industries and security issuers may be more susceptible to economic weakness and more likely to default. Emerging market securities also tend to be less liquid.
Equity Securities Risk. Equity securities are susceptible to general stock market fluctuations and to volatile increases and decreases in value. The equity securities held by the Fund may experience sudden, unpredictable drops in value or long periods of decline in value. This may occur because of factors affecting securities markets generally, the equity securities of a particular sector, or a particular company.
ETF Structure Risk. The Fund is structured as an ETF and as a result is subject to special risks, including:
Fixed-Income Risk. When the Fund invests in fixed-income securities, the value of your investment in the Fund will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Typically, a rise in interest rates causes a decline in the value of fixed income securities owned by the Fund. In general, the market price of fixed-income securities with longer maturities will increase or decrease more in response to changes in interest rates than shorter-term securities. Other risk factors include credit risk (the debtor may default), extension risk (an issuer may exercise its right to repay principal on a fixed rate obligation held by the Fund later than expected), and prepayment risk (the debtor may pay its obligation early, reducing the amount of interest payments).
Foreign Risk. The underlying ETFs’ investment in foreign (non-U.S.) securities may result in the underlying ETF Fund experiencing more rapid and extreme changes in value than a fund that invests exclusively in securities of U.S. companies, due to smaller markets, differing reporting, accounting and auditing standards, and nationalization expropriation or confiscatory taxation, currency blockage, or political changes or diplomatic developments.
Interest Rate Risk. Changing interest rates, including rates that fall below zero, may have unpredictable effects on markets, result in heightened market volatility and detract from the Fund’s performance to the extent the Fund is exposed to such interest rates. An increase in interest rates will generally cause the value of securities held by the Fund to decline, may lead to heightened volatility in the fixed-income markets and may adversely affect the liquidity of certain fixed-income investments, including those held by the Fund.
Issuer Risk. The performance of the Fund depends on the performance of individual securities to which the Fund has exposure. Changes in the financial condition or credit rating of an issuer of those securities may cause the value of the securities to decline.
Limited History of Operations Risk. The Fund has a limited history of operations for investors to evaluate.
Market and Geopolitical Risk. The increasing interconnectivity between global economies and financial markets increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one region or financial market may adversely impact issuers in a different country, region or financial market. Securities in the Fund’s portfolio may underperform due to inflation (or expectations for inflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products or resources, natural disasters, climate-change and climate-related events, pandemics, epidemics, terrorism, regulatory events, tariffs and trade wars, and governmental or quasi-governmental actions. The occurrence of global events similar to those in recent years may result in market volatility and may have long term effects on the U.S. financial market.
Passive Investment Risk. The Fund is not
actively managed and the Adviser will not sell a holding due to current or projected underperformance of a holding, industry or sector
unless that holding is removed from the Index or selling the holding is otherwise required upon rebalancing of the Index as addressed
in the Index methodology.
3 |
Sector Exposure Risk. The Fund may have significant exposure to a limited number of issuers conducting business in the same sector or group of sectors. Market conditions, interest rates, and economic, regulatory, or financial developments could significantly affect a single sector or a group of sectors, and the securities of companies in that sector or group of sectors could react similarly to these or other developments.
Tracking Error Risk. Tracking error is the divergence of the Fund’s performance from that of the Index. Tracking error may occur because of an imperfect correlation between the Fund’s holdings of portfolio securities and those in the Index, pricing difference, the Fund’s holding of cash, difference in timing of the accrual of dividends, changes to the Index or the need to meet various regulatory requirements. This risk may be heightened during times of increased market volatility or other unusual market conditions. Tracking error also may result because the Fund incurs fees and expenses, while the Index does not.
Turnover Risk. A higher portfolio turnover will result in higher transactional and brokerage costs associated with the turnover, which may reduce the Fund’s return, unless the securities traded can be bought and sold without corresponding commission costs. Frequent trading of securities may also increase the Fund’s realized capital gains or losses, which may increase the taxes you pay as a Fund shareholder. The Fund is expected to have a high portfolio turnover rate.
Underlying ETF Risk. While the Underlying ETFs seek to provide certain investment outcomes, there is no guarantee that they will successfully do so. Because the Fund’s value is based on the value of the Underlying ETFs, the Fund’s investment performance largely depends on the investment performance and associated risks of the Underlying ETFs. The Underlying ETFs are subject to many of the same structural risks as the Fund that are described in more detail herein, such as ETF Structure Risk, Passive Investment Risk and Tracking Error Risk.
U.S. Treasury Obligations Risk. U.S. Treasury obligations held by the underlying ETFs may differ from other securities in their interest rates, maturities, times of issuance and other characteristics and may provide relatively lower returns than those of other securities. Similar to other issuers, changes to the financial condition or credit rating of the U.S. government may cause the value of the Fund’s U.S. Treasury obligations to decline.

Purchase and Sale of Fund Shares: Individual Shares may be purchased and sold in secondary market transactions through a broker dealer or at market price. Shares are listed for trading on the Exchange and trade at market prices rather than NAV. Shares may trade at a price that is greater than, at, or less than NAV. An investor may incur costs attributable to the difference between the highest price a buyer is willing to pay to purchase Shares (bid) and the lowest price a seller is willing to accept for Shares (ask) when buying or selling Shares in the second market (the “bid-ask spread”). Information on the Fund’s NAV, market price, premiums and discounts and bid-asks spreads is presented on the Fund’s website at www.monarchfunds.com.
Tax Information: The Fund’s distributions generally will be taxable as ordinary income or long-term capital gains. A sale of Shares may result in capital gain or loss.
Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries: If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Adviser or its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.
