- Innovator U.S. Equity Ultra Buffer ETF - February (UFEB) is an exchange-traded fund that seeks to track the price return of the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY), up to a predetermined cap, while providing a buffer against the first 5% to 35% of losses over a specific outcome period of approximately one year. The fund employs a laddered options strategy utilizing FLEX options on SPY to achieve its defined outcomes, including upside participation to the cap in rising markets and downside protection in declining markets; it resets its outcome period annually, allowing indefinite holding by investors seeking risk-managed exposure to large-cap U.S. equities. UFEB forms part of Innovator ETFs' broader suite of Defined Outcome ETFs, which encompasses monthly and quarterly series of buffer, power buffer, and ultra buffer strategies across U.S. equity, international equity, and fixed income segments; additional offerings include Defined Income ETFs and Defined Protection ETFs targeted at institutions, financial advisors, and retail investors. UFEB operates within the investment management industry, focusing on the rapidly expanding defined outcome ETF category; it primarily serves investors pursuing predictable investment outcomes with built-in risk management. The fund is domiciled in the United States and listed on U.S. exchanges, with portfolio holdings concentrated in U.S. stocks (approximately 95%), cash equivalents, and options contracts. Launched on January 31, 2020, UFEB is issued by Innovator ETFs Trust, based in Wheaton, Illinois. Innovator Capital Management, the sponsor behind UFEB and its related funds, was founded in 2017 by industry veterans Bruce Bond and John Southard—former creators of the PowerShares ETF lineup—and maintains headquarters in Wheaton, Illinois. In a transformative development announced on December 1, 2025, Goldman Sachs agreed to acquire Innovator Capital Management for approximately $2 billion in cash and equity, subject to performance milestones, with the deal expected to close in the second quarter of 2026 pending regulatory approvals; this transaction will integrate Innovator's $28 billion in assets across 159 ETFs into Goldman Sachs Asset Management as a wholly owned subsidiary, enhancing its active ETF capabilities in defined outcome strategies. Recent portfolio adjustments include new co-portfolio managers Rebekah Lipp, Jeff Greco, and Maria Schiopu effective July 18, 2025, alongside ongoing annual outcome period resets for UFEB, such as the current period from approximately December 2024 to November 2025.
