TORONTO, Dec. 11, 2012 /CNW/ - Horizons Exchange Traded Funds Inc. ("Horizons ETFs") announces today the estimated capital gains to be distributed to unitholders of certain of the exchange traded funds managed by its affiliates (the "ETFs") for the 2012 tax year as indicated in the table below.  With respect to the Horizons BetaPro family of leveraged, inverse, inverse leveraged, volatility and single ETFs, this would be the sixth consecutive year with no capital gains distributions and which includes the Horizons S&P/TSX 60TM Index ETF and Horizons S&P 500® Index (C$ Hedged) ETF which have both completed 2 full calendar years of operations since their inception without any capital gains distributions to unitholders.

Please note that these are estimated amounts only. Circumstances may arise which could cause these estimates to change before the ETFs' tax year ends on December 15, 2012 and December 31, 2012, as applicable. 

Each of the ETFs is required to distribute any net income and capital gains that they have earned in the year. The final annual capital gains distributions will not be paid in cash but will be reinvested and reported as taxable distributions and will be used to increase each unitholder's adjusted cost base for the respective ETF. These estimated amounts are for the annual capital gains distributions and do not include estimates of any regular monthly, quarterly or semi-annual cash distributions, as applicable, including those capital gains that may form part of the monthly distributions for the Horizons Enhanced Income ETFs.

Horizons ETFs expects to announce the final year-end income and capital gains distribution amounts, as well as regular monthly, quarterly or semi-annual distribution amounts, on or about December 18 and 19, 2012.  The ex-dividend date for these distributions is anticipated to be December 27, 2012, for all unitholders of record on December 31, 2012.  In early 2013, the tax characteristics of all distributions for 2012 for the ETFs will be reported to brokers via CDS.

Reasons for the larger estimated capital gains distribution for:
