VictoryShares free cash flow ETFs see rapid asset growth

VictoryShares’ free cash flow ETFs VFLO, GFLW and SFLO recorded rapid asset growth, sustained net inflows and double-digit returns over the past year. VFLO reached $9.1 billion in assets and led the lineup in returns.

VFLO, launched in mid-2023, expanded assets from $5.6 billion to $9.1 billion, a 62.6% increase equal to roughly $3.5 billion in raw growth. Net inflows since inception exceed $6.6 billion. The fund returned 26.5% year to date and 41.3% over the trailing 12 months.

GFLW, introduced in late 2024, grew assets 34.2% from $641.7 million to $860.9 million and has accumulated more than $700 million in inflows. The fund gained 13.2% year to date and 18.3% over the past 12 months, after recent monthly headwinds that trimmed short-term performance by about 7%.

SFLO, the small-cap free cash flow fund, increased assets 54.5% from $445.2 million to $687.9 million and drew nearly $500 million in inception-to-date inflows. SFLO returned 27.5% year to date, 38.5% over 12 months and posted month-to-date gains near 9.4%.

All three funds target companies that generate free cash flow, defined as cash remaining after operating expenses and capital spending. Portfolios are weighted to companies with higher excess cash generation. The strategies combine elements of value, quality and growth and can be used as core equity holdings or as satellite allocations in broader portfolios.
