NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
NOTE 1-
Organization:
BNY Mellon Concentrated Growth ETF (the "fund") is a separate non-diversified series of BNY Mellon ETF Trust II (the "Trust"), which is registered as a Massachusetts business trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-ended management investment company. The Trust operates as a series company currently consisting of eight series, including the fund. The investment objective of the fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation. BNY Mellon ETF Investment Adviser, LLC (the "Adviser"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation ("BNY"), serves as the fund's investment adviser. Fayez Sarofim & Co., LLC (the "Sub-Adviser"), serves as the fund's sub-adviser. The Bank of New York Mellon, a subsidiary of BNY and an affiliate of the Adviser, serves as administrator, custodian and transfer agent with the Trust. BNY Mellon Securities Corporation (the "Distributor"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Adviser, is the distributor of the fund's shares.
The shares of the fund are referred to herein as "Shares" or "Fund Shares." Fund Shares are listed and traded on NYSE Arca, Inc. The market price of each Share may differ to some degree from the fund's net asset value ("NAV"). Unlike conventional mutual funds, the fund issues and redeems Shares on a continuous basis, at NAV, only in a large specified number of Shares, each called a "Creation Unit". Creation Units are issued and redeemed principally in exchange for the deposit or delivery of a basket of securities and/or cash. Except when aggregated in Creation Units by Authorized Participants, the Shares are not individually redeemable securities of the fund. Individual Fund Shares may only be purchased and sold on the NYSE Arca, Inc., other national securities exchanges, electronic crossing networks and other alternative trading systems through your broker-dealer at market prices. Because Fund Shares trade at market prices rather than at NAV, Fund Shares may trade at a price greater than NAV (premium) or less than NAV (discount). When buying or selling Shares in the secondary market, you may incur costs attributable to the difference between the highest price a buyer is willing to pay to purchase Shares of the fund (bid) and the lowest price a seller is willing to accept for Shares of the fund (ask).
NOTE 2-
Significant Accounting Policies:
The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") is the exclusive reference of authoritativeU.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the FASB ASC Topic 946 Financial Services-InvestmentCompanies. The fund's financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which may require the use of managementestimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The Trust enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. The funds do not anticipate recognizing any loss related to these arrangements.
(a) Portfolio valuation: The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., the exit price). GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs of valuation techniques used to measure fair value. This hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).
Additionally, GAAP provides guidance on determining whether the volume and activity in a market has decreased significantly and whether such a decrease in activity results in transactions that are not orderly. GAAP requires enhanced disclosures around valuation inputs and techniques used during annual and interim periods.
Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund's investments relating to fair value measurements. These inputs are summarizedin the three broad levels listed below:
Level 1-unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.
Level 2-other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3-significant unobservable inputs (including the fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. Valuation techniquesused to value the fund's investments are as follows:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)
The Trust's Board of Trustees (the "Board") has designated the Adviser as the fund's valuation designee to make all fair value determinations with respect to the fund's portfolio of investments, subject to the Board's oversight.
The fund's equity investments, including shares of REITs and ETFs, if any, (but not including investments in other open-end registered investment companies), generally are valued at the last sales price on the day of valuation of the securities exchange or national securities market on which such securities are primarily traded. Securities listed on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System ("NASDAQ") markets generally will be valued at the official closing price. If there are no transactions in a security, or no official closing prices for a NASDAQ market-listed security on that day, the security will be valued at the average of the most recent bid and asked prices. Bid price is used when no asked price is available. Open short positions for which there is no sale price on a given day are valued at the lowest asked price. Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their reported NAVs each day. All of the preceding securities are generally categorized within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
Restricted securities, as well as securities or other assets for which recent market quotations are not readily available or are determined not to reflect fair value accurately, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith based on procedures approved by the Board. Fair value of investments may be determined by the valuation designee using such information as it deems appropriate under the circumstances.The factors that may be considered when fair valuing a security include fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold, and public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable issuers. Using fair value to price investments may result in a value that is different from a security's most recent closing price and from the prices used by other funds to calculate their NAVs. These securities are either categorized within Level 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy depending on the relevant inputs used.
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of April 30, 2026 in valuing the fund's investments:

(b) Foreign taxes: The fund may be subject to foreign taxes (a portion of which may be reclaimable) on income, stock dividends, realized and unrealized capital gains on investments or certain foreign currency transactions. Foreign taxes are recorded in accordance with the applicable foreign tax regulations and rates that exist in the foreign jurisdictions in which the fund invests. These foreign taxes, if any, are paid by the fund and are reflected in the Statement of Operations, if applicable. Foreign taxes payable or deferred or those subject to reclaims as of April 30, 2026, if any, are disclosed in the fund'sStatement of Assets and Liabilities.
(c) Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income, including, where applicable, accretion of discount and amortization of premium on investments, is recognized on the accrual basis.
Pursuant to a securities lending agreement with BNY, the fund may lend securities to qualified institutions. It is the fund's policy that, at origination, all loans are secured by collateral of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned and 105% of the value of foreign securities loaned. Collateral equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities on loan is maintained at all times. Collateral is either in the form of cash, which can be invested in certain money market mutual funds managed by the Adviser or its affiliates, or U.S. Government and Agency securities. Any non-cash collateral received cannot be sold or re-pledged by the fund, except in the event of borrower default, and is not reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The securities on loan, if any, are also disclosed in the fund's Schedule of Investments. The fund is entitled to receive all dividends, interest and distributions on securities loaned, in addition to income earned as a result of the lending transaction. Should a borrower fail to return the securities in a timely manner, BNY is required to replace the securities for the benefit of the fund or credit the fund with the market value of the unreturned securities and
11
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)
is subrogated to the fund's rights against the borrower and the collateral. Additionally, the contractual maturity of security lending transactions are on an overnight and continuous basis. During the period ended April 30, 2026, BNY earned $6,098 from the lending of the fund's portfolio securities, pursuant to the securities lending agreement.
For financial reporting purposes, the fund elects not to offset assets and liabilities subject to a securities lending agreement, if any, in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Therefore, all qualifying transactions are presented on a gross basis in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. As of April 30, 2026, the fund had securities lending and the impact of netting of assets and liabilities and the offsetting of collateral pledged or received, if any, based on contractual netting/set-off provisions in the securities lending agreement are detailed in the following table:

The value of the related collateral received by the fund exceeded the value of the securities loaned by the fund pursuant to the securities lending agreement. In addition,
the value of collateral may include pending sales that are also on loan. See Schedule of Investments for detailed information regarding collateral received for open
securities lending.
(d) Affiliated issuers: Investments in other investment companies advised by the Adviser or its affiliates are considered "affiliated" under the Act.
(e) Market Risk: The value of the securities in which the fund invests may be affected by political, regulatory, economic and social developments, and developments that impact specific economic sectors, industries or segments of the market. In addition, turbulence in financial markets and reduced liquidity in equity, credit and/or fixed-income markets may negatively affect many issuers, which could adversely affect the fund. Global economies and financial markets are becoming increasingly interconnected, and conditions and events in one country, region or financial market may adversely impact issuers in a different country, region or financial market. These risks may be magnified if certain events or developments adversely interrupt the global supply chain; in these and other circumstances, such risks might affect companies world-wide. Local, regional or global events such as war, military conflicts, acts of terrorism, natural disasters, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, recessions, elevated levels of government debt, changes in trade regulation or economic sanctions, internal unrest and discord, or other events could have a significant impact on the fund and its investments.
Foreign Investment Risk: Because the fund invests in foreign securities, the fund's performance will be influenced by political, social and economic factors affecting investments in foreign issuers. Special risks associated with investments in foreign issuers include exposureto currency fluctuations, less liquidity, less developed or less efficient trading markets, lack of comprehensive company information, political and economic instability and differing auditing and legal standards. The imposition of sanctions, confiscations, trade restrictions(including tariffs) and other government restrictions by the United States and other governments, or problems in share registration,settlement or custody, may result in losses for the fund. Investments denominated in foreign currencies are subject to the risk that such currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar and affect the value of these investments held by the fund. To the extent securities held by the fund trade in a market that is closed when the exchange on which the fund's shares trade is open, there may be deviations between the current price of a security and the last quoted price for the security in the closed foreign market. These deviations could result in the fund experiencing premiums or discounts greater than those of ETFs that invest in domestic securities. To the extent the fund's investments are focused in a limited number of foreign countries, the fund's performance could be more volatile than that of more geographically diversified funds.
Non-Diversification Risk:The fund is non-diversified, which means that the fund may invest a relatively high percentage of its assets in a limited number of issuers. Therefore, the fund's performance may be more vulnerable to changes in the market value of a single issuer or group of issuers and more susceptible to risks associated with a single economic, political or regulatory occurrence than a diversified fund.
12
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)
Growth Stock Risk:The fund invests in stocks of companies the sub-adviser believes are growth companies (growth stocks). The prices of growth stocks may be based largely on expectations of future earnings, and their prices can decline rapidly and significantly in reaction to negative news. Growth stocks may underperform value stocks and stocks in other broad style categories (and the stock market as a whole) over any period of time and may shift in and out of favor with investors generally, sometimes rapidly, depending on changes in market, economic, and other factors.
Authorized Participants, Market Makers and Liquidity Providers Risk: The fund has a limited number of financial institutions that may act as Authorized Participants, which are responsible for the creation and redemption activity for the fund. In addition, there may be a limited number of market makers and/or liquidity providers in the marketplace. To the extent either of the following events occur, fund shares may trade at a material discount to net asset value and possibly face delisting: (i) Authorized Participants exit the business or otherwise become unable to process creation and/or redemption orders and no other Authorized Participants step forward to perform these services, or (ii) market makers and/or liquidity providers exit the business or significantly reduce their business activities and no other entities step forward to perform their functions.
(f) Dividends and distributions to shareholders:Dividends and distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from net investment income are normally declared and paid quarterly. Dividends from net realized capital gains, if any, are normally declared and paid annually, but the fund may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). To the extent that net realized capital gains can be offset by capital loss carryovers, it is the policy of the fund not to distribute such gains. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.
(g) Federal income taxes: It is the policy of the fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company, if such qualification is in the best interests of its shareholders, by complying with the applicable provisions of the Code, and to make distributions of taxable income and net realized capital gain sufficient to relieve it from substantially all federal income and excise taxes.
As of and during the period ended April 30, 2026, the fund did not have any liabilities for any uncertain tax positions. The fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period ended April 30, 2026, the fund did not incur any interest or penalties.
Each tax year in the three-year period ended October 31, 2025 remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities.
The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025 were as follows: ordinary income $702,070 and long-term capital gains $34,658,490. The tax character of current year distributions will be determined at the end of the current fiscal year.
(h) Operating segment reporting:In accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Update 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures ("ASU 2023-07"), the fund has operated and been managed as a single reportable segment, generating returns through dividends, interest, and/or gains from investments aligned with its single stated investment objective as outlined in the fund's prospectus. The fund's accounting policies are consistent with those described in these Notes to Financial Statements. The chief operating decision maker ("CODM") is represented by BNY Investments and is comprised of Senior Management and Directors of BNY Investments. The CODM considers the net increase in net assets resulting from operations when deciding whether to purchase additional investments or make distributions to shareholders. Detailed financial information for the fund is presented in these financial statements, including total assets and liabilities in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, investments held in the Schedule of Investments, results of operations and significant segment expenses in the Statement of Operations, and additional performance information-such as total return, portfolio turnover, and ratios-in the Financial Highlights.
NOTE 3-
Management Fee, Sub-Advisory Feeand Other Transactions with Affiliates:
(a) Pursuant to a management agreement with the Adviser, the management fee is computed at an annual rate of .50% of the value of the fund's average daily net assets and is payable monthly. The fund's management agreement provides that the Adviser pays substantially all expenses of the fund, except for the management fees, payments under the fund's 12b-1 plan (if any), interest expenses, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, brokerage commissions, costs of holding shareholder meetings, fees and expenses associated with the fund's securities lending program, and litigation and potential litigation and other extraordinary expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the fund's business.
13
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)
The Adviser may from time to time voluntarily waive and/or reimburse fees or expenses in order to limit total annual fund operating expenses. Any such voluntary waiver or reimbursement may be eliminated by the Adviser at any time. During the period ended April 30, 2026, there was no voluntary reduction in expenses pursuant to the undertaking.
Pursuant to a sub-investment advisory agreement between the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, the Sub-Adviser serves as the fund's sub-adviserresponsible for the day-to-day management of the fund's portfolio. The Adviser pays the Sub-Adviser a monthly fee at an annual percentage of the value of the fund's average daily net assets. The Adviser has obtained an exemptive order from the SEC (the "Order"), upon which the fund may rely, to use a manager of managers approach that permits the Adviser, subject to certain conditions and approval by the Board, to enter into and materially amend sub-investment advisory agreements with one or more sub-advisers who are either unaffiliated with the Adviser or are wholly-owned subsidiaries (as defined under the Act) of the Adviser's ultimate parent company,BNY, without obtaining shareholder approval. The Order also allows the fund to disclose the sub-advisory fee paid by the Adviser to any unaffiliated sub-adviser in the aggregate with other unaffiliated sub-advisers in documents filed with the SEC and provided to shareholders. In addition, pursuant to the Order, it is not necessary to disclose the sub-advisory fee payable by the Adviser separately to a sub-adviser that is a wholly-owned subsidiary of BNY in documents filed with the SEC and provided to shareholders; such fees are to be aggregated with fees payable to the Adviser. The Adviser has ultimate responsibility (subject to oversight by the Board) to supervise any sub-adviser and recommend the hiring, termination, and replacement of any sub-adviser to the Board.
Pursuant to a sub-investment advisory agreement between the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, the Adviser (not the fund) pays the Sub-Advisera monthly fee at an annual rate of .2175% of the value of the fund's average daily net assets.
(b) The fund has an arrangement with The Bank of New York Mellon (the "Custodian"), a subsidiary of BNY and an affiliate of the Adviser, whereby the fund will receive interest income or be charged overdraft fees when cash balances are maintained. For financial reporting purposes, the fund includes this interest income and overdraft fees, if any, as interest income in the Statement of Operations.
The components of "Due to BNY Mellon ETF Investment Adviser, LLC" in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities consist of: managementfee of $47,306.
(c) Each current Board member of the fund serves as a board member of each fund within the Trust and BNY Mellon ETF Trust. The Board members are not compensated directly by the fund. The Board members are paid by the Adviser from the unitary management fees paid to the Adviser by the funds within the Trust and BNY Mellon ETF Trust, including the fund.
NOTE 4-
Securities Transactions:
The aggregate amount of purchases and sales of investment securities, excluding short-term securities and in-kind transactions, if any, during the period ended April 30, 2026, amounted to $7,120,938 and $6,852,441, respectively.
At April 30, 2026, accumulated net unrealized appreciation on investments was $55,211,692, consisting of $56,733,904 gross unrealizedappreciation and $1,522,212 gross unrealized depreciation.
At April 30, 2026, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes (see the Schedule of Investments).
NOTE 5-
Shareholder Transactions:
The fund issues and redeems its shares on a continuous basis, at NAV, to certain institutional investors known as "Authorized Participants"(typically market makers or other broker-dealers) only in a large specified number of shares called a Creation Unit. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares of the fund are not redeemable. The value of the fund is determined once each business day. The Creation Unit size for the fund may change. Authorized Participants will be notified of such change. Creation Unit transactions may be made in-kind, for cash, or for a combination of securities and cash. The principal consideration for creations and redemptions for the fund is in-kind, although this may be revised at any time without notice. The Trust issues and sells shares of the fund only: in Creation Units on a continuous basis through the Distributor, without a sales load, at their NAV per share determined after receipt of an order, on any Business Day, in proper form pursuant to the terms of the Authorized Participant Agreement. Transactions in capital shares for the fund are disclosed in detail in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets. The consideration for the purchase of Creation Units of the fund may consist of the in-kind deposit of a designated portfolio of securities and a specified amount of cash. Investors purchasing and redeeming Creation Units may pay a purchase transaction fee and a redemption transaction fee directly to the Trust and/or custodian to offset transfer and other transaction costs associated with the issuance and redemption of Creation Units, including Creation Units for cash. The Adviser or its affiliates (the "Selling Shareholder") may purchase Creation Units through a broker-dealer to "seed" (in whole or in part) funds as they are launched or may purchase shares from broker-dealers or other investors that have previously provided "seed"
14
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)
for funds when they were launched or otherwise in secondary market transactions. Because the Selling Shareholder may be deemed an affiliate of such funds, the fund shares are being registered to permit the resale of these shares from time to time after purchase. The fund will not receive any of the proceeds from resale by the Selling Shareholders of these fund shares. An additional variable fee may be charged for certain transactions. Such variable charges, if any, are included in "Transaction fees" on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets.
In-kind Redemptions:For financial reporting purposes, in-kind redemptions are treated as sales of securities resulting in realized capital gains or losses to the fund. Because such gains or losses are not taxable to the fund and are not distributed to existing fund shareholders, the gains or losses are reclassified from accumulated net realized gain (loss) to paid-in capital at the end of the fund's tax year. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. During the period ended April 30, 2026, the fund had in-kind transactions associated with creations of $0 and redemptions of $6,952,666.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
The following table describes the performance for the fiscal periods indicated. All information (except portfolio turnover rate) reflects financial results for a single fund share. Net asset value total return is calculated assuming an initial investment made at the net asset value at the beginning of the period, reinvestment of all dividends and distributions at net asset value during the period, and redemption at net asset value on the last day of the period. Net asset value total return includes adjustments in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and as such, the net asset value for financial reporting purposes and the returns based upon those net asset values may differ from the net asset value and returns for shareholder transactions. Market price total return is calculated assuming an initial investmentmade at the market price at the beginning of the period, reinvestment of all dividends and distributions at market price during the period, and sale at the market price on the last day of the period.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
NOTE 1-
Organization:
BNY Mellon Dynamic Value ETF (the "fund") is a separate diversified series of BNY Mellon ETF Trust II (the "Trust"), which is registered as a Massachusetts business trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-ended management investment company. The Trust operates as a series company currently consisting of eight series, including the fund. The investment objective of the fund is to seek capital appreciation. BNY Mellon ETF Investment Adviser, LLC (the "Adviser"), a wholly-ownedsubsidiary of The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation ("BNY"), serves as the fund's investment adviser. Newton Investment Management North America, LLC (the "Sub-Adviser" or "NIMNA"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of BNY and an affiliate of the Adviser, serves as the fund's sub-adviser. NIMNA's principal office is located at BNY Mellon Center, 201 Washington Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02108. NIMNA has entered into a sub-sub-investment advisory agreement with its affiliate, Newton Investment ManagementLimited ("NIM"), which enables NIM to provide certain advisory services to the Sub-Adviser for the benefit of the fund, including, but not limited to, portfolio management services. NIM is subject to the supervision of NIMNA and the Adviser. NIM is also an affiliate of the Adviser. NIM, located at 160 Queen Victoria Street, London, EC4V, 4LA, England, was formed in 1978. NIM is an indirect subsidiary of BNY. The Bank of New York Mellon, a subsidiary of BNY and an affiliate of the Adviser, serves as administrator,custodian and transfer agent with the Trust. BNY Mellon Securities Corporation (the "Distributor"), a wholly-owned subsidiaryof the Adviser, is the distributor of the fund's shares.
The shares of the fund are referred to herein as "Shares" or "Fund Shares." Fund Shares are listed and traded on NYSE Arca, Inc. The market price of each Share may differ to some degree from the fund's net asset value ("NAV"). Unlike conventional mutual funds, the fund issues and redeems Shares on a continuous basis, at NAV, only in a large specified number of Shares, each called a "Creation Unit". Creation Units are issued and redeemed principally in exchange for the deposit or delivery of a basket of securities. Except when aggregated in Creation Units by Authorized Participants, the Shares are not individually redeemable securities of the fund. Individual Fund Shares may only be purchased and sold on the NYSE Arca, Inc., other national securities exchanges, electronic crossing networks and other alternative trading systems through your broker-dealer at market prices. Because Fund Shares trade at market prices rather than at NAV, Fund Shares may trade at a price greater than NAV (premium) or less than NAV (discount). When buying or selling Shares in the secondary market, you may incur costs attributable to the difference between the highest price a buyer is willing to pay to purchase Shares of the fund (bid) and the lowest price a seller is willing to accept for Shares of the fund (ask).
NOTE 2-
Significant Accounting Policies:
The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") is the exclusive reference of authoritativeU.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The fund is an investment company and applies the accounting and reporting guidance of the FASB ASC Topic 946 Financial Services-InvestmentCompanies. The fund's financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which may require the use of managementestimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The Trust enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. The funds do not anticipate recognizing any loss related to these arrangements.
(a) Portfolio valuation: The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., the exit price). GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs of valuation techniques used to measure fair value. This hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).
Additionally, GAAP provides guidance on determining whether the volume and activity in a market has decreased significantly and whether such a decrease in activity results in transactions that are not orderly. GAAP requires enhanced disclosures around valuation inputs and techniques used during annual and interim periods.
Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund's investments relating to fair value measurements. These inputs are summarizedin the three broad levels listed below:
Level 1-unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.
Level 2-other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
11
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)
Level 3-significant unobservable inputs (including the fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. Valuation techniquesused to value the fund's investments are as follows:
The Trust's Board of Trustees (the "Board") has designated the Adviser as the fund's valuation designee to make all fair value determinations with respect to the fund's portfolio of investments, subject to the Board's oversight.
The fund's equity investments, including shares of REITs and ETFs, if any, (but not including investments in other open-end registered investment companies), generally are valued at the last sales price on the day of valuation of the securities exchange or national securities market on which such securities are primarily traded. Securities listed on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System ("NASDAQ") markets generally will be valued at the official closing price. If there are no transactions in a security, or no official closing prices for a NASDAQ market-listed security on that day, the security will be valued at the average of the most recent bid and asked prices. Bid price is used when no asked price is available. Open short positions for which there is no sale price on a given day are valued at the lowest asked price. Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their reported NAVs each day. All of the preceding securities are generally categorized within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
Restricted securities, as well as securities or other assets for which recent market quotations are not readily available or are determined not to reflect fair value accurately, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith based on procedures approved by the Board. Fair value of investments may be determined by the valuation designee using such information as it deems appropriate under the circumstances.The factors that may be considered when fair valuing a security include fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold, and public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable issuers. Using fair value to price investments may result in a value that is different from a security's most recent closing price and from the prices used by other funds to calculate their NAVs. These securities are either categorized within Level 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy depending on the relevant inputs used.
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of April 30, 2026 in valuing the fund's investments:

(b) Foreign taxes: The fund may be subject to foreign taxes (a portion of which may be reclaimable) on income, stock dividends, realized and unrealized capital gains on investments or certain foreign currency transactions. Foreign taxes are recorded in accordance with the applicable foreign tax regulations and rates that exist in the foreign jurisdictions in which the fund invests. These foreign taxes, if any, are paid by the fund and are reflected in the Statement of Operations, if applicable. Foreign taxes payable or deferred or those subject to reclaims as of April 30, 2026, if any, are disclosed in the fund'sStatement of Assets and Liabilities.
(c) Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income, including, where applicable, accretion of discount and amortization of premium on investments, is recognized on the accrual basis.
Pursuant to a securities lending agreement with BNY, the fund may lend securities to qualified institutions. It is the fund's policy that, at origination, all loans are secured by collateral of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned and 105% of the value of foreign securities loaned. Collateral equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities on loan is maintained at all times. Collateral is
12
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)
either in the form of cash, which can be invested in certain money market mutual funds managed by the Adviser or its affiliates, or U.S. Government and Agency securities. Any non-cash collateral received cannot be sold or re-pledged by the fund, except in the event of borrower default, and is not reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The securities on loan, if any, are also disclosed in the fund's Schedule of Investments. The fund is entitled to receive all dividends, interest and distributions on securities loaned, in addition to income earned as a result of the lending transaction. Should a borrower fail to return the securities in a timely manner, BNY is required to replace the securities for the benefit of the fund or credit the fund with the market value of the unreturned securities and is subrogated to the fund's rights against the borrower and the collateral. Additionally, the contractual maturity of security lending transactions are on an overnight and continuous basis. During the period ended April 30, 2026, BNY earned $250 from the lending of the fund's portfolio securities, pursuant to the securities lending agreement.
For financial reporting purposes, the fund elects not to offset assets and liabilities subject to a securities lending agreement, if any, in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Therefore, all qualifying transactions are presented on a gross basis in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. As of April 30, 2026, the fund had securities lending and the impact of netting of assets and liabilities and the offsetting of collateral pledged or received, if any, based on contractual netting/set-off provisions in the securities lending agreement are detailed in the following table:

The value of the related collateral received by the fund exceeded the value of the securities loaned by the fund pursuant to the securities lending agreement. In addition,
the value of collateral may include pending sales that are also on loan. See Schedule of Investments for detailed information regarding collateral received for open
securities lending.
(d) Affiliated issuers: Investments in other investment companies advised by the Adviser or its affiliates are considered "affiliated" under the Act.
(e) Market Risk: The value of the securities in which the fund invests may be affected by political, regulatory, economic and social developments, and developments that impact specific economic sectors, industries or segments of the market. In addition, turbulence in financial markets and reduced liquidity in equity, credit and/or fixed-income markets may negatively affect many issuers, which could adversely affect the fund. Global economies and financial markets are becoming increasingly interconnected, and conditions and events in one country, region or financial market may adversely impact issuers in a different country, region or financial market. These risks may be magnified if certain events or developments adversely interrupt the global supply chain; in these and other circumstances, such risks might affect companies world-wide. Local, regional or global events such as war, military conflicts, acts of terrorism, natural disasters, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, recessions, elevated levels of government debt, changes in trade regulation or economic sanctions, internal unrest and discord, or other events could have a significant impact on the fund and its investments.
Fluctuation of Net Asset Value, Share Premiums and Discounts Risk: As with all exchange-traded funds, fund shares may be bought and sold in the secondary market at market prices. The trading prices of fund shares in the secondary market may differ from the fund's daily net asset value per share and there may be times when the market price of the shares is more than the net asset value per share (premium) of less than the net asset value per shares (discount). This risk is heightened in times of market volatility or periods of steep market declines.
Authorized Participants, Market Makers and Liquidity Providers Risk: The fund has a limited number of financial institutions that may act as Authorized Participants, which are responsible for the creation and redemption activity for the fund. In addition, there may be a limited number of market makers and/or liquidity providers in the marketplace. To the extent either of the following events occur, fund shares may trade at a material discount to net asset value and possibly face delisting: (i) Authorized Participants exit the business or otherwise become unable to process creation and/or redemption orders and no other Authorized Participants step forward to perform these services, or (ii) market makers and/or liquidity providers exit the business or significantly reduce their business activities and no other entities step forward to perform their functions.
13
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)
(f) Dividends and distributions to shareholders:Dividends and distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from net investment income and dividends from net realized capital gains, if any, are normally declared and paid annually, but the fund may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). To the extent that net realized capital gains can be offset by capital loss carryovers, it is the policy of the fund not to distribute such gains. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.
(g) Federal income taxes: It is the policy of the fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company, if such qualification is in the best interests of its shareholders, by complying with the applicable provisions of the Code, and to make distributions of taxable income and net realized capital gain sufficient to relieve it from substantially all federal income and excise taxes.
As of and during the period ended April 30, 2026, the fund did not have any liabilities for any uncertain tax positions. The fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period ended April 30, 2026, the fund did not incur any interest or penalties.
The tax year in the period ended October 31, 2025 remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities.
The fund is permitted to carry forward capital losses for an unlimited period. Furthermore, capital loss carryovers retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses.

NOTE 3-
Management Fee, Sub-Advisory Feeand Other Transactions with Affiliates:
(a) Pursuant to a management agreement with the Adviser, the management fee is computed at an annual rate of .60% of the value of the fund's average daily net assets and is payable monthly. The fund's management agreement provides that the Adviser pays substantially all expenses of the fund, except for the management fees, payments under the fund's 12b-1 plan (if any), interest expenses, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, brokerage commissions, costs of holding shareholder meetings, fees and expenses associated with the fund's securities lending program, and litigation and potential litigation and other extraordinary expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the fund's business.
The Adviser may from time to time voluntarily waive and/or reimburse fees or expenses in order to limit total annual fund operating expenses. Any such voluntary waiver or reimbursement may be eliminated by the Adviser at any time. During the period ended April 30, 2026, there was no voluntary reduction in expenses pursuant to the undertaking.
Pursuant to a sub-investment advisory agreement between the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, the Sub-Adviser serves as the fund's sub-adviserresponsible for the day-to-day management of the fund's portfolio. The Adviser pays the Sub-Adviser a monthly fee at an annual percentage of the value of the fund's average daily net assets. The Adviser has obtained an exemptive order from the SEC (the "Order"), upon which the fund may rely, to use a manager of managers approach that permits the Adviser, subject to certain conditions and approval by the Board, to enter into and materially amend sub-investment advisory agreements with one or more sub-advisers who are either unaffiliated with the Adviser or are wholly-owned subsidiaries (as defined under the Act) of the Adviser's ultimate parent com

pany, BNY, without obtaining shareholder approval. The Order also allows the fund to disclose the sub-advisory fee paid by the Adviser to any unaffiliated sub-adviser in the aggregate with other unaffiliated sub-advisers in documents filed with the SEC and provided to shareholders. In addition, pursuant to the Order, it is not necessary to disclose the sub-advisory fee payable by the Adviser separately to a sub-adviser that is a wholly-owned subsidiary of BNY in documents filed with the SEC and provided to shareholders; such fees are to be aggregated with fees payable to the Adviser. The Adviser has ultimate responsibility (subject to oversight by the Board) to supervise any sub-adviser and recommend the hiring, termination, and replacement of any sub-adviser to the Board.
Pursuant to a sub-investment advisory agreement between the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, the Adviser (not the fund) pays the Sub-Advisera monthly fee at an annual rate of .30% of the value of the fund's average daily net assets.
(b) The fund has an arrangement with The Bank of New York Mellon (the "Custodian"), a subsidiary of BNY and an affiliate of the Adviser, whereby the fund will receive interest income or be charged overdraft fees when cash balances are maintained. For financial reporting purposes, the fund includes this interest income and overdraft fees, if any, as interest income in the Statement of Operations.
The components of "Due to BNY Mellon ETF Investment Adviser, LLC" in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities consist of: managementfee of $587,002.
(c) Each current Board member of the fund serves as a board member of each fund within the Trust and BNY Mellon ETF Trust. The Board members are not compensated directly by the fund. The Board members are paid by the Adviser from the unitary management fees paid to the Adviser by the funds within the Trust and BNY Mellon ETF Trust, including the fund.
NOTE 4-
Securities Transactions:
The aggregate amount of purchases and sales of investment securities, excluding short-term securities and in-kind transactions, if any, during the period ended April 30, 2026, amounted to $519,501,362 and $520,405,448, respectively.
At April 30, 2026, accumulated net unrealized appreciation on investments was $142,745,829, consisting of $159,789,119 gross unrealized appreciation and $17,043,290 gross unrealized depreciation.
At April 30, 2026, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes (see the Schedule of Investments).
NOTE 5-
Shareholder Transactions:
The fund issues and redeems its shares on a continuous basis, at NAV, to certain institutional investors known as "Authorized Participants"(typically market makers or other broker-dealers) only in a large specified number of shares called a Creation Unit. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares of the fund are not redeemable. The value of the fund is determined once each business day. The Creation Unit size for the fund may change. Authorized Participants will be notified of such change. Creation Unit transactions may be made in-kind, for cash, or for a combination of securities and cash. The principal consideration for creations and redemptions for the fund is in-kind, although this may be revised at any time without notice. The Trust issues and sells shares of the fund only: in Creation Units on a continuous basis through the Distributor, without a sales load, at their NAV per share determined after receipt of an order, on any Business Day, in proper form pursuant to the terms of the Authorized Participant Agreement. Transactions in capital shares for the fund are disclosed in detail in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets. The consideration for the purchase of Creation Units of the fund may consist of the in-kind deposit of a designated portfolio of securities and a specified amount of cash. Investors purchasing and redeeming Creation Units may pay a purchase transaction fee and a redemption transaction fee directly to the Trust and/or custodian to offset transfer and other transaction costs associated with the issuance and redemption of Creation Units, including Creation Units for cash. The Adviser or its affiliates (the "Selling Shareholder") may purchase Creation Units through a broker-dealer to "seed" (in whole or in part) funds as they are launched or may purchase shares from broker-dealers or other investors that have previously provided "seed" for funds when they were launched or otherwise in secondary market transactions. Because the Selling Shareholder may be deemed an affiliate of such funds, the fund shares are being registered to permit the resale of these shares from time to time after purchase. The fund will not receive any of the proceeds from resale by the Selling Shareholders of these fund shares. An additional variable fee may be charged for certain transactions. Such variable charges, if any, are included in "Transaction fees" on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets.
In-kind Redemptions:For financial reporting purposes, in-kind redemptions are treated as sales of securities resulting in realized capital gains or losses to the fund. Because such gains or losses are not taxable to the fund and are not distributed to existing fund shareholders, the gains or losses are reclassified from accumulated net realized gain (loss) to paid-in capital at the end of the fund's tax

year. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. During the period ended April 30, 2026, the fund had in-kind transactions associated with creations of $681,116,444 and redemptions of $8,830,490.
