    Unit consolidation - BetaShares U.S. Equities Strong Bear Hedge Fund - Currency Hedged
    (ASX Code: BBUS)
    BetaShares Capital Limited (BetaShares), the responsible entity of BetaShares U.S. Equities Strong
    Bear Hedge Fund - Currency Hedged (BBUS), today announces the upcoming consolidation of the
    units on issue in the Fund.
    The consolidation will take effect from 12 August 2021. Once completed it is expected to result in a
    more favourable bid-offer spread for investors in percentage terms.
    This announcement contains details of the consolidation, its impact on units, tax considerations and
    timeline. Please do not hesitate to contact Link Market Services or BetaShares if you have any
    questions.
    BBUS Unit Consolidation Summary
    Overview:
    • BBUS units will be consolidated on a 1 for 10 basis.
    • the final day for trading BBUS units before the consolidation is 11 August 2021.
    • the consolidation will take effect from 12 August 2021.

    Impact of consolidation on unitholding
    BBUS units on issue will be consolidated on a 1 for 10 basis. This means if an investor held 100
    units prior to the consolidation, they will hold 10 units post consolidation.
    Reason for the Consolidation
    The consolidation of units on a 1 for 10 basis will cause an increase in BBUS’ unit price to reflect the
    reduced number of units on issue, which is expected to result in a more favourable bid-offer spread
    for investors in percentage terms.
    To exemplify the impact of the unit consolidation on the bid-offer spread, we provide the following
    example: At a unit price of ~$1.08, and assuming a 0.5 cent bid-offer spread, the percentage spread
    is ~0.46%. At a post-consolidation unit price
