USA distribution FAQ
When is USA's next ex-distribution date?
USA's next ex-distribution date is Oct 11, 2026 (in 33 days, estimated from its quarterly schedule). You must own the shares before that date to receive the payment of about $0.17 per share, expected on Oct 25, 2026.
How often does USA pay distributions?
USA pays distributions every quarter, 4 times a year. The most recent payment was $0.17 per share with an ex-date of Jul 16, 2026.
What is USA's distribution yield?
USA's trailing 12-month distribution yield is 11.26%, based on $0.67 per share paid over the last year and a share price of $5.95. The forward yield, using the indicated annual rate of $0.68 per share, is 11.43%.
How much does USA pay per share?
USA pays about $0.17 per share each quarter, which works out to roughly $0.68 per share a year. 100 shares would collect about $68.00 a year.
Has USA grown or cut its distribution?
Over the last 5 years the regular payout has shrunk at 2.5% a year (-1.5% over the last year). There has been no cut to a regular payment in the last 5 years. As a fund, USA'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 11.43%, you would need about 1,765 shares of USA (roughly $10,500 invested at today's price) to collect $1,200 a year, or $100 a month on average, before taxes. Payments arrive every quarter, so the monthly figure is an average.
