Select Sector SPDR Fund shareholders are subject to risks similar to those of holders of other sector stock portfolios. One primary
consideration is that the general level of stock prices may decline, and thus the value of Select Sector SPDRs may decline. A Select
Sector SPDR Fund may also be adversely affected by the performance of the specific sector or group of industries upon which it is
based. You can expect that shares in a Select Sector SPDR Fund will move up or down in value with the value of its related Select
Sector Index. In addition, the overall depth and liquidity of the secondary market in these shares may fluctuate.
Although Select Sector SPDR Funds are designed to provide investment results that, before expenses, generally correspond to the price
and yield performance of their related Select Sector Indexes, the Funds of the Select Sector SPDR Trust may not be able to exactly
replicate the performance of the Select Sector Indexes because of expenses and other factors.
Over time, the stock holdings of each Select Sector SPDR Fund may be rebalanced to reflect changes in the composition of its related
index. A Select Sector SPDR Fund would incur transaction costs and other expenses as a result of rebalancing. Furthermore, a Select
Sector SPDR Fund would realize capital gains or losses from the sale of securities in a rebalancing. Net long-term capital gains, if any,
will be distributed to shareholders as capital gains distributions at least annually.
From a tax standpoint, you should be aware that the Trust is structured as a regulated investment company, and that dividend
distributions may not be characterized entirely as ordinary income. You may wish to consult your tax adviser in this regard.
There are no sales loads on Select Sector SPDR shares but ordinary brokerage commissions may apply and this expense is not reflected
The stocks included in each Select Sector Index were selected by the compilation agent. Their composition and weighting can be
expected to differ to that in any similar indexes that are published by the S&P.
Data Definitions & Reliability
AltaVista believes the information contained in this report to be reasonably accurate at the time of publication, but makes no warranties
with respect to its accuracy. Calculations of fundamental data are based on a weighted average of consensus estimates and reported
results for current index constituents. As a result, historical figures for fundamental data such as dividends per share may not reflect
those actually paid by the fund. To the extent that index reconstitution and rebalancing have altered fund composition, these
differences may be significant. Definitions for some commonly used financial terms are as follows:
Earnings/Net Income: Unless denoted as a GAAP figure, earnings are calculated on a “pro forma” basis using consensus EPS
results/estimates for the individual constituents of each fund, multiplied by the float-adjusted shares outstanding. Cash Flow: Adds depreciation and amortization to consensus earnings estimates Standard deviation: Statistical measure of price volatility using 3 years of monthly return data. Figures are annualized. Beta: Measures relative volatility of ETF versus S&P 500 by comparing 3 years of monthly return data. Book Value: Common Equity as reported by fund constituents according to GAAP. Forecasts reflect pro-forma calculations using
most recently reported figures, plus earnings less dividends. Dividends per share-gross: Dividends paid by companies in the fund on a "pro forma" basis. Differs from actual dividends paid by
the fund to shareholders due to index changes over time and fund expenses, as well as timing of distributions. Return on Equity: Net income divided by average common equity over the period. Long-term growth: Uses consensus estimates of 3-5 year earnings growth for individual constituents of each fund to calculate a
float-adjusted earnings-weighted growth rate for the fund as a whole. Trend in Current FY Estimates: Illustrates changes in consensus estimates over time by examining the monthly change in current Additional information is available upon request.
