Fund Description: John Hancock Multifactor Mid Cap ETF is an exchange-traded index fund or Index ETF which is a separate investment portfolio of the John Hancock Exchange-Traded Fund Trust, an open-end investment management company. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE: The John Hancock Multifactor Mid Cap ETF seeks to provide investment returns that closely correspond to the price and yield performance of the John Hancock Dimensional Mid Cap Index. INDEX DESCRIPTION: The John Hancock Dimensional Mid Cap Index is designed to comprise a subset of securities in the U.S. Universe issued by companies whose market capitalizations are between the 200th and 951st largest U.S. company at the time of reconstitution. The selection and weighting of securities in the Index involves a rules-based process that may sometimes be referred to as multifactor investing, factor-based investing, strategic beta, or smart beta. Securities are classified according to their market capitalization, relative price, and profitability. Weights for individual securities are then determined by adjusting their free-float adjusted market capitalization weight within the universe of eligible names so that names with smaller market capitalizations, lower relative price and higher profitability generally receive an increased weight relative to their unadjusted weight, and vice versa. The Index is reconstituted and rebalanced on a semiannual basis. FUND STRATEGY: The Fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in securities that compose the Index. The technology sector is composed of companies in areas such as the creation, development or provision of software, hardware, internet services, database management, information technology consulting and services, data processing, or semi-conductors. The Fund, using an indexing investment approach, attempts to approximate the investment performance of the Index by investing in a portfolio of securities that generally replicates the Index. The Fund may concentrate its investments in a particular industry or group of industries to the extent that the Index concentrates in an industry or group of industries. The Fund is non-diversified, which means that it may invest its assets in a smaller number of issuers than a diversified fund. FUND MANAGEMENT: John Hancock Advisers, LLC serves as the investment advisor to the Fund. Dimensional Fund Advisors LP serves as the sub-advisor to the Fund.
