FUND SUMMARY

Cambria Tactical Yield ETF

### Investment Objective
The Fund seeks income and capital appreciation.

### Fees and Expenses
This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold and sell Shares. **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 Fee\*: | 0.59% |
|  Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Fees: | 0.00% |
|  Other Expenses  | 0.00% |
|  Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses: | 0.59% |

---

\* Pursuant to the Fund's investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays the Adviser (defined below) a unitary management fee. The Adviser, in turn, bears all of the Fund's expenses, except for the management fee, payments under the Fund's 12b-1 plan, brokerage expenses, acquired fund fees and expenses, taxes, interest (including borrowing costs and dividend expenses on securities sold short), litigation expense and other extraordinary expenses (including litigation to which Cambria ETF Trust or the Fund may be a party and indemnification of the Trustees and officers with respect thereto).

### Example
The following 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 redeem all of your Shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that the Fund provides a return of 5% a year and that operating expenses remain the same. The example does not reflect any brokerage commissions that you may pay on purchases and sales of Shares. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **One Year:** | **Three Years:** | **Five Years:** | **Ten Years:** |
| $60 | $189 | $329 | $738 |

---

### Portfolio Turnover
The Fund may pay transaction costs, including 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 Shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in the annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund's performance. For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 0% of the average value of its portfolio.

### Principal Investment Strategies
The Fund is actively managed using a model-based approach and seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its net assets, plus borrowings for investment purposes, in fixed income securities, including individual bonds as well as exchange traded products and ETFs that invest primarily in bonds. Fixed income securities include, but are not limited to, the following: U.S. government securities (securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities) such as Treasury bonds, Treasury notes and T-Bills; intermediate term (*i.e.*, two- to ten-year maturity), investment grade bonds traded in the United States that comprise the U.S. aggregate bond market; corporate bonds; high yield (or "junk") bonds; residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities ("MBS"); Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS); and emerging market government bonds (*i.e.*, sovereign debt). The Fund may invest in fixed income securities of any duration or maturity.

Utilizing its own quantitative model, the Fund's investment adviser, Cambria Investment Management, L.P. ("Cambria" or the "Adviser"), generally selects fixed income securities for inclusion in the Fund's portfolio tactically based on a comparison of their current yield spreads (*i.e.*, the difference in quoted rates of return on differing debt instruments) relative to T-Bills and their historical average yield spreads. Fixed income securities with varying maturities, credit ratings, and risks typically have different yields. Some fixed income securities' yields may be similar to the yields of T-Bills (narrow yield spreads), while other fixed income securities may have yields that are larger than and more attractive relative to the yields of T-Bills (wide yield spreads). Wider yield spreads, however, often indicate greater risks associated with those securities.

No less frequently than on a quarterly basis, the quantitative algorithm evaluates the current yield spreads of various categories of fixed income securities relative to T-Bills and determines whether the current yield spreads are narrow or wide relative to historic averages. If a category of fixed income securities, *e.g.*, corporate bonds, has a historically narrow yield spread relative to T-Bills, the Fund will invest in T-Bills rather than corporate bonds because the lower rate of return does not sufficiently offset the associated risks of corporate bonds. If, however, a category of fixed income securities, *e.g.*, MBS, has a historically wide yield spread relative to T-Bills, the Fund will invest in MBS rather than T-Bills because the higher rate of return helps offset the additional risks associated with MBS. To the extent the quantitative model identifies historically wide yield spreads in any fixed income security category, the model generally targets an allocation of between 10% and 20% of the Fund's net assets to that category of fixed income securities.

To the extent that all of the various categories of fixed income securities have historically narrow yield spreads relative to T-Bills, the Fund may invest up to 100% of its portfolio in T-Bills, as market conditions warrant. However, if multiple categories of the fixed income universe demonstrate historically wide yield spreads relative to T-Bills, which may include significant downward pricing trends, the Fund may invest a significant portion of its assets in each of those applicable fixed income security categories and may not allocate any assets to T-Bills. Accordingly, when spreads relative to T-Bills are wider than historic averages for an individual category of fixed income security, the Fund typically moves its assets tactically into these riskier bonds and sources of yield.

Although Cambria seeks to weight each of the categories of fixed income securities with wide yield spreads equally in the Fund's portfolio, security weights may fluctuate in response to market conditions and investment opportunities that develop between the model's quarterly calculations. Accordingly, the Fund generally targets an allocation of between 10% and 20% of its net assets in each category of fixed income securities with wide historic yield spreads, based on the quantitative model's quarterly calculation, and the Fund invests the remainder of its assets in T-Bills.

To the extent that historic yield spreads are wide with respect to high yield bonds or emerging market government bonds, Cambria expects to obtain exposure to these types of fixed income securities through investments in other exchange-traded funds ("ETFs"). The model may allocate up to 10% of the Fund's net assets to ETFs. Accordingly, the Fund generally targets an allocation of between 5% and 10% of the Fund's net assets to these categories of fixed income securities when they have historically wide yield spreads.

In addition, to the extent that real estate investment trusts ("REITs") have historically wide yield spreads relative to T-Bills, the model may allocate up to 20% of its net assets in REITs.

Although the Fund employs a model-based investment approach based on Cambria's proprietary, quantitative algorithm, the Fund may sell a security when Cambria believes that the security is overvalued or better investment opportunities are available, to invest in cash and cash equivalents, or to meet redemptions. Cambria expects to adjust the Fund's holdings at least quarterly to meet the investment criteria and target allocations (*e.g.*, security weights) established by the Fund's quantitative algorithm.

### Principal Risks
An investment in the Fund involves risk. Each risk summarized below is considered a "principal risk" of investing in the Fund, regardless of the order in which it appears. The Fund's principal risks are presented in alphabetical order to facilitate investors' ability to identify particular risks and compare them with the risks of other funds. Some or all of these risks may adversely affect the Fund's net asset value per share ("NAV"), trading price, yield, total return, and/or ability to meet its objective. *There is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.* An investor may lose money by investing in the Fund. For more information about the risks of investing in the Fund, see the sections titled "Additional Information About the Funds' Risks" and "Additional Non-Principal Risk Information."

**Cash Redemption Risk.** The Fund's investment strategy will require it to effect redemptions by Authorized Participants, in whole or in part, for the cash value of large blocks of Shares called Creation Units. As a result, the Fund may pay out higher annual capital gain distributions and be less tax-efficient than if the in-kind redemption process was used exclusively. In addition, cash redemptions may incur higher brokerage costs than in-kind redemptions and these added costs may be borne by the Fund and negatively impact Fund performance.

**Corporate Bond Risk.** Corporate bonds respond to economic developments, especially changes in interest rates, as well as perceptions of the creditworthiness and business prospects of individual issuers.

**Cyber Security Risk.** The Fund, and its service providers, may be susceptible to operational and information security risks resulting from a breach in cyber security, including cyber-attacks. A breach in cyber security, intentional or unintentional, may adversely impact the Fund in many ways, including, but not limited to, disruption of the Fund's operational capacity, loss of proprietary information, theft or corruption of data, denial-of-service attacks on websites or network resources, and the unauthorized release of confidential information. Cyber-attacks affecting the Fund's third-party service providers, including Cambria, the sub-adviser, the custodian, and the transfer agent, market makers, Authorized Participants, or the issuers of securities in which the Fund invests may subject the Fund to many of the same risks associated with direct cyber security breaches.

**Emerging Markets Risk.** Emerging market investments are subject to the same risks as foreign investments and to additional risks due to greater political and economic uncertainties as well as a relative lack of information about issuers in such markets. For example, emerging markets may be subject to, among other risks, greater market volatility; lower trading volume and liquidity; greater social, political and economic uncertainty; governmental controls on foreign investments and limitations on repatriation of invested capital; lower disclosure, corporate governance, auditing and financial reporting standards; fewer protections of property rights; fewer investor rights and limited legal, contractual or practical remedies available to investors against emerging market companies; restrictions on the transfer of securities or currency; and settlement and trading practices that differ from U.S. markets and markets of more developed countries.

**ETF Structure Risk.** The Fund is an ETF, and, as a result of an ETF's structure, it is exposed to the following risks:

**Authorized Participants, Market Makers and Liquidity Providers Concentration Risk.** The Fund has a limited number of financial institutions that may act as Authorized Participants. In addition, there may be a limited number of market makers and/or liquidity providers in the marketplace. To the extent either of the following events occur, Shares may trade at a material discount to NAV and possibly face delisting: (i) Authorized Participants exit the business or otherwise become unable to process creation and/or redemption orders and no other Authorized Participants step forward to perform these services, or (ii) market makers and/or liquidity providers exit the business or significantly reduce their business activities and no other entities step forward to perform their functions.

**Cash Redemption Risk.** The Fund's investment strategy will require it to effect redemptions by Authorized Participants, in whole or in part, for the cash value of large blocks of Shares called Creation Units. As a result, the Fund may pay out higher annual capital gain distributions and be less tax-efficient than if the in-kind redemption process was used exclusively. In addition, cash redemptions may incur higher brokerage costs than in-kind redemptions, and these added costs may be borne by the Fund and negatively impact Fund performance.

**Premium**-Discount **Risk.** Shares may trade above (premium) or below (discount) their NAV. The market prices of Shares will generally fluctuate in accordance with changes in NAV as well as the relative supply of, and demand for, Shares on the Exchange. This risk is heightened in times of market volatility or periods of steep market declines. Additionally, in stressed market conditions, the market for Shares may become less liquid in response to deteriorating liquidity in the markets for the Fund's underlying portfolio holdings, and this could lead to differences between the market price of the Shares and the underlying value of those Shares.

**Secondary Market Trading Risk.** Investors buying or selling Shares in the secondary market may pay brokerage commissions or other charges, which may be a significant proportional cost for investors seeking to buy or sell relatively small amounts of Shares. In addition, secondary market investors will also incur a bid/ask spread, which varies over time for Shares based on trading volume and market liquidity and is generally higher if Shares have little trading volume and market liquidity. Although the Shares are listed on the Exchange, there can be no assurance that an active or liquid trading market for them will develop or be maintained. In stressed market conditions, the liquidity of Shares may begin to mirror the liquidity of the Fund's underlying portfolio holdings, which can be significantly less liquid than Shares. In addition, trading in Shares on the Exchange may be halted.

**Exchange**-Traded **Funds and Investment Companies Risk.** The risks of investing in securities of ETFs and investment companies typically reflect the risks of the types of instruments in which the underlying ETF or investment company invests. In addition, with such investments, the Fund bears its proportionate share of the fees and expenses of the underlying entity. As a result, the Fund's operating expenses may be higher and performance may be lower.

**Fixed Income Risk.** A decline in an issuer's credit rating and/or financial condition may cause such issuer's fixed income securities to decrease in value while experiencing increased volatility and investment risk. During periods of falling interest rates, an issuer of a callable bond held by the Fund may "call" (or repay) the security before its stated maturity, and the Fund may have to reinvest the proceeds at lower interest rates, resulting in a decline in the Fund's income. The market value of a fixed income security generally changes in response to changes in interest rates and may change quickly and without warning in response to issuer defaults and changes in issuer credit ratings.

**High Yield Securities Risk.** High yield securities and unrated securities of comparable credit quality are subject to the increased risk of an issuer's inability to meet principal and interest payment obligations. High yield securities are subject to a greater risk of default and investments in them are inherently speculative. The secondary markets in which high yield securities are traded may be less liquid and more volatile than the market for higher grade securities.

**Inflation**-Protected **Security Risk.** Inflation-protected securities, such as Treasury inflation-protected securities (TIPS), provide protection against inflation. Inflation-protected securities typically decrease in value when real interest rates rise and increase in value when real interest rates fall.

**Interest Rate Risk.** The market value of fixed income securities, and financial instruments related to fixed income securities, will change in response to changes in interest rates. As interest rates rise, the value of certain fixed income securities is likely to decrease. Similarly, if interest rates decline, the value of fixed income securities is likely to increase. Longer maturity securities tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates and more volatile; and thus if the Fund has a longer portfolio maturity, the Fund generally is subject to greater interest rate risk. Risks associated with rising interest rates are heightened given the Federal Reserve's recent increases in interest rates. To the extent that rates increase substantially and/or rapidly, the Fund may be subject to significant losses.

**Investment Risk.** An investment in the Fund is not a deposit of a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. When you sell your Shares, they could be worth less than what you paid for them.

**Management Risk.** The Fund is actively managed using a model-based approach, and the Adviser selects Fund investments on a periodic basis using a proprietary quantitative algorithm developed by the Adviser for the Fund. There can be no guarantee that these strategies and processes, or the Adviser's quantitative model, will be effective or successful investment management techniques or that the Adviser's judgments about the attractiveness, value and potential appreciation of particular Fund investments will be correct even if the Adviser's overall investment strategies and processes are otherwise effective. Further, there is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.

**Market Events Risk.** Turbulence in the financial markets, reduced liquidity in the fixed income markets, and/or the advent of certain economic or political events, including global events such as war, acts of terrorism, tariffs, or a public health crisis, may negatively affect issuers, which could have an adverse effect on certain Fund holdings. In addition, there is a risk that policy changes by the U.S. Government, Federal Reserve and/or other government actors, such as the recent increases in interest rates, could cause increased volatility in financial markets and higher levels of Fund redemptions, which could have a negative impact on certain Fund holdings.

**Mortgage**-Backed **Securities Risk.** Movements in interest rates (both increases and decreases) may quickly and significantly reduce the value of certain types of MBS. In addition, MBS generally can be prepaid at any time, and prepayments that occur either more quickly (prepayment risk) or more slowly (extension risk) than expected can adversely impact the value of such securities. MBS may be negatively affected by the quality of the underlying mortgages, the credit quality of its issuer or guarantor, and the nature and structure of its credit support. MBS not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government are subject to the risk of default on the underlying mortgage, particularly during periods of economic downturn.

**Quantitative Security Selection Risk.** Cambria uses quantitative techniques to generate investment decisions and select fixed income securities, and the Fund may not perform as intended if it relies on erroneous or outdated data from one or more third parties. Errors in data used in the quantitative model may occur from time to time and may not be identified and/or corrected before having an adverse impact on the Fund and its shareholders.

**Real Estate Industry Risk.** To the extent the Fund invests in REITs, the Fund is subject to the risks related to investments in real estate, including declines in the real estate market, decreases in property revenues, increases in interest rates, increases in property taxes and operating expenses, legal and regulatory changes, a lack of credit or capital, defaults by borrowers or tenants, environmental problems and natural disasters.

**REIT Risk.** In addition to the risks associated with the real estate industry, REITs are subject to additional risks, including those related to adverse governmental actions and the potential failure to qualify for tax-free pass through of income and exemption from registration as an investment company. REITs are dependent upon specialized management skills and may invest in relatively few properties, a small geographic area or a small number of property types. As a result, investments in REITs may be volatile. REITs are pooled investment vehicles with their own fees and expenses and the Underlying Vehicle, as well as the Fund, will indirectly bear a proportionate share of those fees and expenses.

**Sovereign Debt Securities Risk.** Investments in sovereign debt obligations involve special risks not present in corporate debt obligations. The issuer of the sovereign debt or the authorities that control the repayment of the debt may be unable or unwilling to repay principal or interest when due, and the Fund may have limited recourse in the event of a default. During periods of economic uncertainty, the market prices of sovereign debt, and the Fund's NAV, may be more volatile than prices of U.S. debt obligations. In the past, certain non-U.S. markets have encountered difficulties in servicing their debt obligations, withheld payments of principal and interest and declared moratoria on the payment of principal and interest on their sovereign debts. These risks increase for lower-rated and high yield debt securities, as discussed in this Prospectus.

**U.S. Government Securities Risk.** U.S. government securities are subject to market risk, interest rate risk and credit risk. Securities, such as those issued or guaranteed the U.S. Treasury, that are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States are guaranteed only as to the timely payment of interest and principal when held to maturity and the market prices for such securities will fluctuate. Notwithstanding that these securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States, circumstances could arise that would prevent the payment of interest or principal. This would result in losses to the Fund.

### Performance
The Fund commenced operations on January 5, 2024, and therefore does not yet have performance history for a full calendar year. Performance information will be available in the Prospectus after the Fund has been in operation for one full calendar year. When provided, the information will provide some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing how the Fund's average annual returns compare with a broad measure of market performance. As always, please note that the Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information will be available at <u>www.cambriafunds.com/tyld</u>.

### Investment Advisers
Cambria Investment Management, L.P. serves as the investment adviser to the Fund. Tidal Investments LLC serves as the sub-adviser to the Fund.

### Portfolio M anagers
Mebane T. Faber, Chief Investment Officer of Cambria, and Jonathan Keetz, Chief Operating Officer of Cambria, are the portfolio managers for the Fund and have managed the Fund since its inception in January 2024.

### Purchase and Sale of Fund Shares
Individual Shares are listed on a national securities exchange and may only be purchased and sold in the secondary market through a broker-dealer at a market price. Because Shares trade at market prices rather than NAV, Shares may trade at a price greater than NAV (at a "premium") or less than NAV (at a "discount"). 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 and selling Shares in the secondary market (the "bid/ask spread"). Recent information regarding the Fund, including its NAV, market price, premiums and discounts, and bid/ask spreads, is available on the Fund's website at <u>http:</u><u>//</u><u>www.cambriafunds.com</u><u>/</u><u>tyld</u>.

### Tax Information
Distributions you receive from the Fund are generally taxable to you as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes, except that distributions will be taxed to you at long-term capital gain rates to the extent reported by the Fund as "capital gain dividends" or "qualified dividend income," and may also be subject to state or local taxes. Fund distributions may not be taxable to you if you are investing through a tax-advantaged retirement plan account or are a tax-exempt investor, although you may be taxed on withdrawals from your tax-advantaged account.

### Purchases Through Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries
If you purchase Shares through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary, the Fund and 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 Shares over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary's website for more information.
