Horizon, a provider of highly customized investment and technology solutions designed to fuel the growth of financial advisors, is today announcing the further expansion of its lineup of Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) with the introduction of two new funds.

Launching today on the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE):

  • Horizon High Income ETF (YLDY): Seeks to provide investors with attractive current income while minimizing the cyclicality and sector concentration associated with other fixed income and equity dividend strategies. The fund is built around an actively managed U.S. large cap equity portfolio with an option hedge overlay to target an attractive annual distribution yield; and

  • Horizon Expansion Leaders ETF (EXPN): Seeks capital appreciation by investing in companies positioned to benefit from periods of economic expansion and rising inflation expectations, complemented by an actively managed gold and commodity securities options overlay.

EXPN and YLDY bring the number of funds in the Horizon ETF suite to 16, an impressive number given Horizon began launching its ETFs at the start of 2025. Asset growth across the funds has been substantial as well, with ETF assets totaling more than $4 billion as of August 3, 2026.

“One of the hallmarks of our approach has been to seek out those ‘blank spaces’ in the ETF ecosystem where advisors could not already find simple, single-ticker tools to assist in addressing some of their most complicated portfolio challenges,” said Horizon’s Head of Product, Clark Allen, CFA®, CPA, CAIA®.

“With EXPN, we’ve delivered a fund designed to seek equity growth while accounting for an inflationary and expansionary economic regime, something top of mind for many market watchers as we head further into 2026. With YLDY, we’ve created an income alternative that provides higher income through a call overlay on a portfolio of high-quality, dividend-tilted equities,” added Allen.

In addition to continuing to expand its ETF lineup, Horizon recently added new talent to the firm with the completion of its acquisition of Anfield Capital Management.

“You can’t build great products without great people,” said John Drahzal, President & CEO of Horizon. “The teams behind these new funds are some of the best in the business. We’re thrilled with the growth in these funds so far, and we’re eager to maintain the momentum we’ve built in providing financial advisors with the technology, tools, and solutions they need to deliver on behalf of their own clients.”

Investing involves risk, including potential loss of principal. There is no assurance that the fund will meet its objective. Investments in securities in general are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time, and the Fund’s investments may decline in value due to factors affecting securities markets generally or to individual fund holdings. Investments in Non-U.S. markets can be more volatile and less liquid than the U.S. market. The value of investments in fixed income securities and securities in which the underlying investments are fixed income securities are expected to fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Investments in options involve risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities, including leverage risk, tracking risk and, in the case of over the counter options, counterparty default risk. Option positions may expire worthless, exposing the Fund to potentially significant losses.

New funds have limited operating histories for investors to evaluate and new and smaller funds may not attract sufficient assets to achieve investment and trading efficiencies.

While the Fund may hold securities of companies that have historically paid a dividend, those companies may reduce or discontinue their dividends in the future, thus reducing income to the Fund. Past dividend payments are not a guarantee of future dividend payments. Small and medium capitalization companies may be more vulnerable than larger, more established organizations to adverse business or economic developments. In addition, small and medium capitalization companies may be particularly affected by interest rate increases, as they may find it more difficult to borrow money to continue or expand operations, or may have difficulty in repaying any loans. The Fund may invest in commodity-linked investments and options, which can be volatile and may expose the Fund to leverage, liquidity, and tracking risks. Option positions may expire worthless, resulting in losses. The Fund may focus its investments in particular sectors and is non-diversified, which may increase volatility and the impact of individual issuers or sectors on performance. The Fund’s strategy relies heavily on quantitative models and the analysis of specific metrics to construct the portfolio, and there is no guarantee that these models or metrics will successfully identify attractive investment opportunities.

Cyclicality means the quality or state of something that occurs or moves in cycles.

Shares of any ETF are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the Fund. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns.

Horizon ETFs are distributed by Quasar Distributors, LLC.
