Every material Form 8-K abrdn Palladium ETF Trust has filed with the SEC since August 14, 2024, read and summarized by AI: what happened, the key figures, whether it reads positive or negative for shareholders, and how big a deal it is (impact 1-5). Newest first; each brief links to its own page and to the filing on SEC.gov.
The abrdn Palladium ETF Trust carried out a 5-for-1 forward split of its abrdn Physical Palladium Shares ETF before trading opened on May 18, 2026. Holders of record at the close on May 14, 2026 received five post-Split shares for each pre-Split share, and the shares began trading on the split basis that day. The split changes the share count and per-share NAV but leaves the CUSIP and ticker symbol (PALL) unchanged.
Split took effect before the NYSE Arca open on May 18, 2026; the Trust announced it in a press release dated April 22, 2026.
Shares outstanding rose from 6,112,500 to 30,562,500.
NAV per share fell from $128.69 to $25.74; the ticker PALL and CUSIP number did not change.
The abrdn Palladium ETF Trust said it will split its shares 5-for-1, so each share held on the May 14, 2026 record date becomes five shares, each priced at one-fifth of the prior net asset value. The filing says the split will not change the total value of a shareholder's investment, and the ticker symbol and CUSIP number stay the same.
Record date is the close of markets on May 14, 2026; split payable after the close on May 15, 2026.
Shares begin trading at post-split prices before the market open on May 18, 2026.
Each share becomes five post-split shares; the hypothetical example shows 10 shares at $100 becoming 50 shares at $20, both totaling $1,000.
Ticker symbol PALL and CUSIP number do not change.
Effective August 8, 2024, JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A. stopped serving as custodian of the trust's palladium, and all palladium was moved to accounts held with ICBC Standard Bank Plc. The filing says the custody of all of the trust's palladium is now with the new custodian, and that neither the trust nor shareholders incurred or will incur any cost or expense from the termination.
Termination of the former custody agreements with JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A. became effective August 8, 2024.
All palladium moved from JPMorgan allocated and unallocated accounts to ICBC Standard Bank Plc accounts on that date.
No cost or expense was or will be incurred by the trust or holders of the ETF in connection with the termination.
