NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--VanEck announced today the 2025 annual distributions per share for its VanEck equity exchange-traded funds.

VanEck Video Gaming and eSports ETF offers diversified exposure to the gaming sector, benefiting from strong hardware and software catalysts in 2025. ESPO stands out among peer ETFs with the lowest expense ratio, highest AUM, superior risk rating, and outperformance in price and overall grades. Key growth drivers include Nintendo's record-breaking Switch 2 launch, Take-Two's GTA VI release, and AI-driven margin expansion and innovation across top holdings.

VanEck Video Gaming and eSports ETF (ESPO) earns a hold rating due to premium valuation and near-term technical caution. ESPO trades at a P/E above 24x, with a PEG ratio near 3x, making it expensive for its niche sector exposure. While ESPO has outperformed since late 2022, technicals show weakening momentum and potential for a consolidation phase.
