What ACBH Does, Per the Issuer
ACBH is the high-income setting of the same machine as its launch-day sibling ACBE — Pacer's Metaurus-designed autocallable ladder, listed with a September 9, 2026 inception at $25.00 and 0.60% total expenses. Per Pacer, the fund seeks to generate high monthly income through exposure to a laddered portfolio of autocallable positions; its marketing references the Metaurus Autocallable High Income index family, with the issuer's own footnote cautioning that the index should not be considered a proxy for the fund. Where ACBE bills itself as the core setting, ACBH is the one tuned for coupon size — and in this category, bigger coupons are always compensation for something, usually barrier proximity or index aggressiveness.
The Machine Both Funds Share
Per Pacer's own fund pages, both funds hold laddered five-year autocallable positions, generally issued weekly, each with monthly observation dates and a coupon barrier at 50% of its starting level — coupons keep accruing as long as the reference index hasn't fallen through that floor. Two design choices stand out against the rest of the category. First, a coupon memory feature: skipped coupons are, in Pacer's words, not necessarily forfeited but accumulated and stored, and may be paid later if the index recovers above the barrier. Second, a six-month non-call period — new positions can't be called away in their first half year, which slows the reinvestment churn that rising markets force on autocallable ladders.
The cost of the design is the category's usual bargain: upside participation is capped even in strong markets, and if the reference index falls through the barrier, full downside risk applies and coupons can be skipped. Our crash simulator makes that cliff visible, and our plain-English guide covers the machinery.
What Nobody Can Know Yet
Neither fund has paid anything — both sit on our first-check watch, which flips automatically the day a first distribution reaches the payment record. Until then, any yield number attached to these funds is a target, not a track record. The coupon memory feature is also untested in practice: it matters exactly when markets fall through the barrier and recover, and no such episode exists yet in either fund's life. We chart every payment of every fund we track from its very first one; these two join that library the day they declare.

Frequently Asked Questions
When did ACBH launch?
Inception September 9, 2026; trading from September 10 on Nasdaq, alongside sibling ACBE. Our net sweep flagged both the same day. The launch tracker shows everything else on the runway.
What does ACBH pay?
Nothing yet — it's on our first-check watch. The fund seeks high monthly coupon income; the amount becomes a fact here the day the first declaration reaches the record, and not before.
How is ACBH different from ACBE?
Same machine, different dial: ACBE is the core-income setting, ACBH the high-income one. In this category a bigger coupon is always compensation for something, and which something only becomes visible in the delivered record — which both pages chart from check one.
