GHYG distribution FAQ

When is GHYG's next ex-distribution date?

GHYG's next ex-distribution date is Oct 1, 2026 (in 22 days, estimated from its monthly schedule). You must own the shares before that date to receive the payment of about $0.2344 per share, expected on Oct 15, 2026.

How often does GHYG pay distributions?

GHYG pays distributions every month, 12 times a year. The most recent payment was $0.233 per share with an ex-date of Sep 1, 2026.

What is GHYG's distribution yield?

How much does GHYG pay per share?

GHYG pays about $0.2344 per share each month, which works out to roughly $2.813 per share a year. 100 shares would collect about $281.30 a year.

Has GHYG grown or cut its distribution?

There has been no cut to a regular payment in the last 5 years. As a fund, GHYG's distributions vary with the income its holdings generate, so payouts are not designed to rise every year the way a dividend-growth stock's are.

At the current forward yield of 6.26%, you would need about 427 shares of GHYG (roughly $19,184 invested at today's price) to collect $1,200 a year, or $100 a month on average, before taxes. Payments arrive every month, so the monthly figure is an average.
