How YMAX dividend dates work

YMAX currently pays on a weekly schedule. For a YieldMax distribution, the declaration date is when the payout is announced, the ex-dividend date is the cutoff for owning shares, and the payment date is when the cash distribution is scheduled to be paid.

The ex-dividend date is the key date for investors: buying YMAX on or after that date means you do not receive that declared payment. Use the YMAX dividend calculator to model the income stream, or open the full YMAX dividend history for every past payment.

YMAX dividend schedule - frequently asked questions

When does YMAX pay dividends?
YMAX pays dividends weekly. The schedule above shows the latest declared ex-dividend date, payment date, declaration date, and per-share distribution amount when an announcement is available.
What is the next YMAX ex-dividend date?
The next YMAX ex-dividend date is the cutoff for receiving the latest declared payment. You must own YMAX before the ex-date to receive that distribution; buying on the ex-date or later means you wait for the next declared payment.
How often does YMAX pay dividends?
YMAX currently pays weekly. YieldMax distribution schedules can change when the issuer updates fund groups or distribution policies, so the current announcement table is the best source for the latest dates.
Where does the YMAX dividend schedule data come from?
For YieldMax funds, schedule data comes from the official weekly distribution announcements and includes the declaration date, ex-dividend date, payment date, per-share amount, distribution rate, 30-day SEC yield, and return-of-capital percentage when those fields are disclosed.
