TAMPA, Fla., April 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The DoubleLine Ultrashort Income ETF (ticker DLUX), an exchanged-traded fund actively invested in a diversified portfolio of investment-grade, short-term securities in the government, securitized and corporate fixed income markets, listed today on the NYSE Arca exchange.
Leading the investment teams managing the DoubleLine Ultrashort Income ETF ("DLUX" or "the Fund") are Portfolio Managers Robert Cohen, head of DoubleLine's Global Developed Credit team; Andrew Hsu, head of the firm's Asset-Backed Securities team; and Vitaliy Liberman, head of the firm's Agency Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities team.
DLUX seeks to achieve attractive returns through the active management of liquidity, interest-rate and spread risks. Liquidity and credit characteristics of the portfolio are managed in an effort to provide optimal returns versus a short-duration index while maintaining liquidity and preserving capital.
Under normal market conditions, the portfolio managers seek to construct the Fund's investment portfolio with a dollar-weighted average effective duration of one year or less. Portfolio holdings will normally consist principally of investment-grade, U.S. dollar-denominated fixed income securities.
DLUX is benchmarked against the ICE BofA U.S. 3-Month T-Bill Index and has a management fee of 18 basis points (bps) of the Fund's average daily net asset value.
"DLUX is a natural extension of DoubleLine's active ETF suite," said Scott Thomson, Director, ETF Capital Markets, at DoubleLine. "The Fund is designed for investors seeking to enhance income and returns on their cash while avoiding the volatility of broader fixed income and equity market exposures. DLUX is a disciplined cash alternative that delivers DoubleLine's expertise and experience investing in and actively allocating across securitized, corporate and government securities."
DLUX is the tenth ETF launched by DoubleLine ETF Adviser LP. The other nine are fixed income funds DoubleLine Opportunistic Core Bond ETF (DBND), DoubleLine Mortgage ETF (DMBS), DoubleLine Commercial Real Estate Debt ETF (DCRE), DoubleLine Asset Backed-Securities ETF (DABS), DoubleLine Securitized Credit ETF (DSCO), DoubleLine Multi-Sector Income ETF (DMX); equity funds DoubleLine Shiller CAPE® U.S. Equities ETF (CAPE) and DoubleLine Fortune 500 Equal Weight ETF (DFVE); and DoubleLine Commodity Strategy ETF (DCMT).
"As DoubleLine has invested in building differentiated ETF solutions for clients, we recognized a potential need in the ETF space for a short-maturity income offering focused, among its key objectives, on the importance of liquidity management," Mr. Thomson said. "I believe DLUX represents a timely addition to the ETF suite through which our team supports clients in achieving their investment and savings goals."

Investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible.
Investing involves risk including the risk of principal loss. The fund's principal investment risks include active management risk, asset-backed securities investment risk, cash transactions risk, and collateralized debt obligations risk. For additional information about these and other fund risks, please refer to the "Principal Investment Risks" section of the prospectus. The fund is a "non-diversified" investment company and therefore, may invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of a single issuer or a limited number of issuers than funds that are "diversified". Accordingly, the fund is more susceptible to risk associated with a single economic, political, or regulatory occurrence than a diversified fund might be.
ETFs are subject to additional risks that do not apply to conventional mutual funds, including the risks that the market price of an ETF's shares may trade at a premium or discount to its net asset value, an active secondary trading market may not develop or be maintained, or trading may be halted by the exchange in which they trade, which may impact an ETF's ability to sell its shares. Shares of any ETF are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the ETF. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns.
DoubleLine ETFs are distributed by Foreside Fund Services, LLC.
