About SCHG Dividends

This page shows the complete SCHG dividend payment history, including ex-dates, payment dates, and per-share amounts. The chart above visualizes the trend of dividend payments over time, making it easy to spot increases, decreases, or irregular payouts.

Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Growth ETF (SCHG) is issued by Charles Schwab. Tracks the Dow Jones U.S. Large-Cap Growth Total Stock Market Index — roughly the growth half of the U.S. large-cap universe, heavily weighted to tech and consumer discretionary (similar profile to QQQ). Ultra-low 0.04% expense ratio, minimal ~0.4% forward yield, quarterly distributions. Bought for price appreciation, not income — dividends are incidental.

Open the SCHG projection tool to model how reinvesting these dividends would compound over time, or check the Total Return Analyzer to see the real yield after accounting for NAV changes.

SCHG dividend history — frequently asked questions

How often does SCHG pay dividends?
SCHG pays dividends quarterly. The dividend history table and chart above show every payment SCHG has made, with the ex-dividend date, payment date, and per-share amount. The ex-date is the cutoff — you must own SCHG before the ex-date to receive that payment; buying on or after the ex-date means you get the next one instead.
What does the SCHG dividend history chart show?
The chart plots the per-share amount of every dividend SCHG has paid, oriented left-to-right from oldest to newest. A rising trend means distributions are growing; a falling trend means they are shrinking. For SCHG, the current yield is roughly 0.36% on a trailing twelve-month basis. Pay attention to the shape of the curve — steady growth is a very different risk profile from a jagged curve with big month-to-month swings, which is common for options-income ETFs.
Are SCHG dividends qualified or ordinary?
SCHG distributions are primarily qualified dividends, taxed at the long-term capital gains rate (0%, 15%, or 20% for most US taxpayers). A small portion may be ordinary or return of capital in any given year; the exact split is on the 1099-DIV.
Why did SCHG distributions change so much month to month?
Month-to-month changes in SCHG can come from a few sources: timing of the payment relative to the ex-date calendar, special distributions, or shifts in the underlying portfolio. For most non-options-income ETFs, distributions are fairly predictable quarter-over-quarter, with occasional year-end special distributions.
Where does this SCHG dividend data come from?
Dividend records are sourced from official issuer dividend calendars and cross-referenced against press releases. Ex-dates and payment dates are the official dates as reported. For YieldMax funds specifically, we also ingest the weekly announcement press releases — that is why YieldMax ticker pages show upcoming announcements.
