FCFY is designed to mirror a broad US sector-neutral index comprising of firms perceived to have strong free cash flow yields in their respective GICS sectors. The fund follows a model akin to the Pacer's Cash Cows line-up in screening for companies with the highest free cash flow yields, but includes those in Financials and Real Estate. Free cash flow yield, a measure of an organizations cash flow generated from operations after expenses, guides the selection process from the S&P 500, with the top 20% within each sector chosen. Non-positive yielding companies are excluded for diversity until sector count meets a threshold. Firms are then weighted by free cash flow yield, each capped between 0.25% and 5% within their sector. The index undergoes semi-annual rebalancing and reconstitution.
