QDTE declares $0.137 per share weekly distribution, down 40.4% from last week

Roundhill Innovation-100 0DTE Covered Call Strategy ETF (QDTE) has declared a weekly distribution of $0.1370 per share, payable to shareholders of record as of the ex-dividend date of 2026-07-30. This represents a decrease of 40.43% from the previous week's distribution of $0.2300 per share.

The numbers

QDTE pays variable weekly distributions that fluctuate from week to week. The new distribution of $0.1370 per share is lower than the prior week's payment of $0.2300. Recent payments have ranged from $0.203 to $0.243 per share, with the latest being the lowest in the past several weeks. Based on the current price of $28.49, the trailing twelve-month (TTM) yield stands at 46.78%, with a TTM dividend per share of $13.3280. The ETF has a record of consecutive years of increases of 1 year, but due to the variable nature of the distributions, this should not be interpreted as a stable growth trend. For a detailed view of past payments, see the dividend history.

What it means for income investors

For an investor holding 100 shares of QDTE, the new distribution of $0.1370 per share translates to $13.70 per week, or approximately $712.40 annually if sustained. However, because QDTE's distributions are variable and tied to option premiums, this amount is not guaranteed and can change with market conditions. Investors should monitor the weekly declarations to understand the income stream's volatility.
