American Beacon Advisors, Inc. (“American Beacon”), an experienced provider of investment advisory services to institutional and retail markets, today announced the launch of the newest addition to its suite of ETFs: the American Beacon The London Company Income Equity ETF (TLIE).

TLIE is sub-advised by The London Company of Virginia, LLC (“The London Company”), a majority employee-owned investment manager founded in 1994 and based in Richmond, Virginia. The new ETF brings The London Company’s flagship Income Equity strategy to investors and advisors for the first time in an ETF wrapper. The London Company’s long-running Income Equity strategy, which represents more than $19 billion in assets under advisement as of August 31, 2026, has been managed continuously since December 31, 1999. Previously available to investors via separately managed account and a mutual fund, TLIE now extends investor access through a tax-efficient ETF wrapper.

TLIE joins its mutual fund counterpart, the American Beacon The London Company Income Equity Fund as American Beacon’s second product sub-advised by The London Company. The launch of TLIE is part of American Beacon’s broader expansion of its ETF lineup, providing financial advisors and their clients additional ways to access established investment strategies.

Greg Stumm, President and CEO of American Beacon Partners, said: “We are very excited to extend our partnership with The London Company to bring their flagship strategy to market as an ETF, providing investors and advisors with a powerful new means through which they can put The London Company’s acumen and experience to work in their portfolios. ETFs may be particularly attractive to tax-sensitive investors, and this ETF is built to play a key role in both income- and equity-focused portfolios.”

The London Company’s Income Equity strategy seeks a concentrated, high-conviction approach, targeting holding 25 to 35 companies. The portfolio management team focuses on identifying businesses with potentially sustainably high and improving returns on capital, utilizing a framework emphasizing balance sheet optimization. The approach also aims to value companies on what they own and owe today rather than on forecasted future earnings.

Stephen Owen, CFA, Principal and Chief Executive Officer with The London Company, said: “Investors have relied on our Income Equity strategy for more than 25 years because of its consistent focus on quality and downside mitigation. Working with American Beacon to launch TLIE gives us an opportunity to bring that disciplined approach to the ETF market and broaden the ways investors can access a strategy we believe is well-suited to navigate a variety of market conditions.”

Disclosures

All investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal.

American Beacon The London Company Income Equity ETF: The Fund is actively managed, and there can be no assurances that its investment objectives will be met. Investing in medium-capitalization stocks may involve greater volatility and lower liquidity than larger company stocks. Investing in foreign markets may involve heightened risk due to currency fluctuations and economic and political risks. Investing in dividend-paying stocks may result in less earnings growth or capital appreciation than investing in non-dividend paying stocks. Because the Fund may invest in fewer issuers than a more diversified portfolio, the fluctuating value of a single holding may have a greater effect on the value of the Fund. To the extent the Fund invests more heavily in particular sectors, its performance will be sensitive to factors affecting those sectors. Information Technology sector companies may face intense competition and rapid product obsolescence; have limited product lines, markets, financial resources or personnel; and lose patent, copyright and trademark protections.

The Fund is new and has a limited operating history. To see Fund performance, once available, please visit www.americanbeaconfunds.com.
