How Dividend Vision calculates yield and returns

Distribution rate (8.79%) is the latest regular payout annualized by the fund's stated frequency, divided by the last close. Issuers often publish this as “Distribution Rate” on the fact sheet. Trailing-12-month yield (9.15%) is the sum of distributions paid in the last 12 months, split-adjusted, divided by the last close. It lags a recent raise or cut. The 30-day SEC yield (9.22%) is the SEC standardized figure when we have it. An issuer may publish a different SEC or TTM yield using another as-of date or share-class convention. Fund total return uses split-adjusted close with distributions reinvested from the first stored bar on or after inception through the latest bar, compared with the same window on the benchmark. That is what the fund did, not your personal gain/loss. Figures below use Dividend Vision data as of August 19, 2026.
