Current report
The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing in a portfolio of exchange-traded futures on commodities in the agriculture sector. The Index Sponsor selects and weights commodities in the Index on an annual basis based on (i) the value and liquidity of the market for associated commodity futures contracts and (ii) their production volume (in order to factor in the relative importance of the commodity in the global economy).
Current report
The Index is intended to reflect the economic performance of investing in futures contracts on a basket of commodities in the agriculture sector. The Index Sponsor selects and weights commodities in the Index on an annual basis based on (i) the value and liquidity of the market for associated commodity futures contracts and (ii) their production volume (in order to factor in the relative importance of the commodity in the global economy).
Current report
Commodity futures quoted in US Dollars and listed on major US and European exchanges are eligible for inclusion in the Index. Eligible commodities are selected based on their Three-Year Total Dollar Volume Average (i.e., commodities are initially screened for inclusion based on their relative three-year “Total Dollar Volume” traded, which is calculated by multiplying the total volume of futures traded during the last one-year period by the average close price of the front month contract on each month end during that one-year period). Each commodity’s three-year Total Dollar Volume traded is calculated in proportion to the three-year Total Dollar Volume traded of all commodities within its sector to determine its initial sector liquidity rate. A commodity with a proportionate weight of less than 2% (or 1.5% for a commodity included at the last rebalance) within its sector is excluded from the Index. Each remaining commodity’s three-year Total Dollar Volume traded is calculated in proportion to the three-year Total Dollar Volume traded of all eligible commodities (“Filtered Commodity Weight”).
Current report
Commodity weights in the Index are determined by the Parent Index. The Parent Index determines production weights for each eligible commodity based on the total dollar amount of the commodity produced within the year in proportion to the sum of the production dollar amounts within the agricultural sector (“Production Weights”). The weight of each commodity in the Index is generally based on the average of the Filtered Commodity Weight and the Production Weight, subject to the requirement that each commodity must have an allocation within the Index of no less than 5%.
Current report
The Index is rebalanced annually on the sixth business day in November. However, during periods of heightened volatility or when commodity prices experience significant movements, the commodities weights within the Index may be reset or reduced based on the weight implemented at the previous annual rebalance. Effective November 10, 2025, the Index comprised the following commodities: Corn, Soybeans, Soybean Meal, Soybean Oil, Wheat, Kansas City Wheat, Sugar, Cocoa, Coffee, Cotton, Live Cattle, Feeder Cattle, and Lean Hogs.

Current report
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the NYSE Arca market value of each Share increased from $25.54 per Share to $27.32 per Share. The Share price low and high for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and related change from the Share price on December 31, 2025 was as follows: Shares traded at a low of $25.50 per Share (-0.16%) on January 20, 2026, and a high of $27.32 per Share (+6.97%) on March 31, 2026. The total return for the Fund on a market value basis was +6.97%.
Current report
Agricultural commodities delivered strong performance in the first quarter of 2026, led by meaningful gains in grains, particularly soybeans, soybean oil, and wheat, as supply constraints, steady export demand, and early‑season weather uncertainty supported prices. Livestock also contributed positively, with cattle prices remaining elevated amid historically tight herd levels following years of herd liquidation and resilient end‑market demand. Grain‑led strength, however, was partially offset by weakness in soft commodities, most notably cocoa and coffee. Heightened geopolitical tensions due to the ongoing conflict with Iran, and the associated risk to global energy flows through the Strait of Hormuz, provided a broader tailwind to commodity markets by lifting inflation expectations and reinforcing investor demand for real assets. Specific to agricultural markets, higher energy prices increased input costs for fertilizers and fuel, raised transportation expenses, and pressured production economics for agricultural producers.
Current report
Agricultural commodities performed negatively in the first quarter of 2025 with the largest detractor being Cocoa. Cocoa was the largest contributor to the sector's positive performance last year, but Cocoa was pressured by a weakening fundamental outlook due to demand concerns sparked by global trade concerns and the International Cocoa Organization’s forecast for the first global surplus in four years for 2024/2025. These considerations caused front month Cocoa prices to plunge by more than 30%. On the other hand, positive performance was led by Coffee, Live Cattle, and Sugar. Coffee rallied nearly 20% year-to-date, spurred by renewed supply concerns as the two largest global Coffee growers, Brazil and Vietnam, faced a severe drought to start the year and persistent adverse weather, respectively. Cattle and Sugar also rallied on supply-side concerns, with the former receiving an additional boost from strengthening demand, and a weaker U.S. dollar was a tailwind for commodities overall.
Current report
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the NAV of each Share increased from $25.54 per Share to $27.26 per Share. Rising commodity futures contract prices for Corn, Cotton, Feeder Cattle, Kansas City Wheat, Lean Hogs, Live Cattle, Soybeans, Soybean Meal, Soybean Oil and Wheat were partially offset by falling commodity futures contract prices of Cocoa, Coffee and Sugar during the three months ended March 31, 2026, contributing to an overall 6.01% increase in the level of the Index and to a 6.97% increase in the level of the DBIQ Diversified Agriculture Index TR™. The total return for the Fund on a NAV basis was +6.73%.
Current report
Net income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $55.7 million, primarily resulting from $7.0 million of income, net realized gain (loss) of $5.3 million, net change in unrealized gain (loss) of $44.9 million and net operating expenses of $1.5 million.
Current report
Net income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $(11.3) million, primarily resulting from $8.6 million of income, net realized gain (loss) of $83.7 million, net change in unrealized gain (loss) of $(101.8) million and net operating expenses of $1.8 million.

Previous report
The Index is rebalanced annually in November to ensure that each of the Index Commodities is weighted in the same proportion that such Index Commodities were weighted on January 18, 1989. The composition of the Index may be adjusted in the event that the Index Sponsor is not able to calculate the closing prices of the Index Commodities.

Commodity Returns for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 and 2024
Previous report
For the three months ended September 30, 2025, the NYSE Arca market value of each Share increased from $26.16 per Share to $26.78 per Share. The Share price low and high for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and related change from the Share price on June 30, 2025 was as follows: Shares traded at a low of $25.63 per Share (-2.03%) on July 15, 2025, and a high of $27.92 per Share (+6.73%) on September 15, 2025. The total return for the Fund on a market value basis was +2.37%.
Previous report
The Fund recovered in the third quarter of 2025 with a positive return overall. Coffee was the largest contributor to performance, with prices boosted by drought conditions in Brazil and heightened tariff fears after President Trump raised tariffs on Brazil. Livestock commodities also contributed positively to performance with US cattle herds and lean hog stockpiles continuing to contract, while demand was strong throughout the summer grilling season and tariffs began to raise the cost of imported beef. Cocoa was the biggest detractor from performance, as previously high prices and declining availability led to demand destruction, while weather improvements also helped ease supply concerns. Wheat, corn, sugar, cotton, and soybeans prices fell in the third quarter due to ample supply. For soybeans, export demand was also pressured by trade tensions with China.
Previous report
For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the NYSE Arca market value of each Share increased from $23.81 per Share to $26.10 per Share. The Share price low and high for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and related change from the Share price on June 30, 2024 was as follows: Shares traded at a low of $23.26 per Share (-2.31%) on August 1, 2024, and a high of $26.56 per Share (+11.55%) on September 27, 2024. The total return for the Fund on a market value basis was +9.62%.
Previous report
Agricultural commodities continued to move higher in the third quarter of 2024, however the bifurcation between grains and soft commodities continued. Cocoa and coffee were the top contributors, supported by persisting supply shortfalls. In contrast, for grains, while there were pockets of adverse weather, specifically in Europe and the US, the markets largely expected there to be enough cushion to weather those losses, keeping prices capped. Soybeans and corn were the largest detractors in the quarter, followed by feeder and live cattle, which fell on the availability of cheaper alternatives.
Previous report
For the three months ended September 30, 2025, the NAV of each Share increased from $26.20 per Share to $26.80 per Share. Rising commodity futures contract prices for Coffee, Feeder Cattle, Lean Hogs and Live Cattle were partially offset by falling commodity futures contract prices of Cocoa, Corn, Cotton, Kansas City Wheat, Soybeans, Sugar and Wheat during the three months ended September 30, 2025, contributing to an overall 1.41% increase in the level of the Index and to a 2.48% increase in the level of the DBIQ Diversified Agriculture Index TR™. The total return for the Fund on a NAV basis was +2.29%.
Previous report
Net income (loss) for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $16.9 million, primarily resulting from $8.2 million of income, net realized gain (loss) of $(17.3) million, net change in unrealized gain (loss) of $27.6 million and net operating expenses of $1.6 million.
Previous report
Net income (loss) for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $59.8 million, primarily resulting from $9.2 million of income, net realized gain (loss) of $(33.5) million, net change in unrealized gain (loss) of $85.7 million and net operating expenses of $1.6 million.

Fund Share Price Performance
Previous report
The Fund recovered in the third quarter after posting negative returns for the first half of 2025. Coffee and livestock were the main contributors to positive performance across this period. Despite falling in the second quarter, coffee was a strong performer overall due to recurring supply concerns and the 50% tariff on imports from Brazil. Livestock has consistently contributed to the Fund's performance, with prices getting a boost from tight US herds and robust demand. Cocoa prices dropped sharply in the third quarter due to deteriorating demand, making cocoa the largest detractor to performance year-to-date. Wheat and corn also detracted, as tariffs put pressure on exports while bumper harvests kept supply levels elevated.
Previous report
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the NYSE Arca market value of each Share increased from $20.73 per Share to $26.10 per Share. The Share price low and high for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and related change from the Share price on December 31, 2023 was as follows: Shares traded at a low of $20.52 per Share (-1.01%) on January 8, 2024, and a high of $26.56 per Share (+28.13%) on September 27, 2024. The total return for the Fund on a market value basis was +25.90%.
Previous report
Agricultural commodities ended the first three quarters of 2024 with strong positive performance, though cocoa was the dominant driver. Front month prices skyrocketed over 180% between the start of the year and its peak in mid-April, repeatedly surpassing all-time highs as crop-damaging disease and adverse weather in West Africa fueled worries for a global supply shortfall. However, front month prices did ease in the second and end of third quarter on increased profit-taking. The other contributors were coffee and livestock commodities which also faced supply concerns. Grains, on the other hand, all retreated on ample global supplies and lacking US competitiveness. While renewed weather concerns did take the market by surprise in April and May, sending wheat skyrocketing, the rally was short-lived. Corn and soybeans led the losses year-to-date as the US is expected to have close to record yields due to favorable weather.

The Fund’s entire source of capital is derived from the Fund’s offering of Shares to Authorized Participants. The Fund in turn allocates its net assets to commodity futures trading. A significant portion of the NAV may be held in United States Treasury Obligations or cash, which may be used as margin for the Fund’s trading in commodity futures contracts and United States Treasury Obligations, money market mutual funds, cash and T-Bill ETFs, if any, which may be used for cash management purposes. The amount of cash and/or United States Treasury Obligations on deposit with the Commodity Broker may exceed the amount of margin required to be on deposit, depending on market conditions and comparative yields available from United States Treasury Obligations, money market funds, T-Bill ETFs and cash held on deposit with Commodity Broker. The percentage that United States Treasury Obligations bear to the total net assets will vary from period to period as the market values of the Fund’s commodity interests change.

The following graphs illustrate the percentage changes in (i) the market price of the Shares (as reflected by the line “Market”), (ii) the Fund’s NAV (as reflected by the line “NAV”), and (iii) the closing levels of the Index (as reflected by the line “DBIQ Diversified Agriculture Index ER”). Whenever the Treasury Income, Money Market Income and T-Bill ETF Income, if any, earned by the Fund exceeds Fund expenses, the price of the Shares generally exceeds the level of the Index primarily because the Share price reflects Treasury Income, Money Market Income and T-Bill ETF Income, if any, from the Fund’s collateral holdings whereas the Index does not consider such income. There can be no assurance that the price of the Shares or the Fund’s NAV will exceed the Index levels.
