- Pays: weekly — 78 distributions since March 3, 2025, without a missed week.
- Trailing 12 months: $20.43 per share across 53 payments — against a recent ~$35 share price.
- What it is: targets 120% of Nvidia's weekly return, with each week's distribution set by a formula built on NVDA's performance and implied volatility.
- Fee: 0.99% expense ratio.
- How much checks swing: $0.13 to $0.40 within the last ten weeks alone — formula funds wobble by design.
NVDW's weekly check is computed, not declared: Roundhill's formula reads Nvidia's recent performance and options pricing each week and sets the payout accordingly. A soft week is not a cut and a fat week is not a raise — that's the formula breathing. Judge the fund on rolling totals, which is what the By-the-Numbers block computes.
Each point is one weekly NVDW distribution since March 2025. The jagged shape is normal — the formula resets the check every week from Nvidia's behavior.

Each point is one payment; the line ends at the most recent payout. The table below totals them by year.
- Trailing 12 months: $19.08 per share across 52 payments — paying since Mar 2025, so no full prior-year comparison yet. What a change like that does to your income →
- Current pace: recent payments annualize to $14.69 — 23% below the trailing figure. When those two disagree, the trailing yield is quoting the past. Live cut & raise board →
- Share price, same 12 months: down 15% (dividends excluded) — income and principal are one story. Erosion Index →
- Record: 83 payments over 19 months; the largest single payment was $1.13 (Oct 2025).
- Payment drops ≥20% below trend, last 24 months: 20. Get alerted to the next one →
- Payment steadiness: the last 12 checks wobble ±21% around their median. Compare that against any fund →

| Recent Ex-Dividend Dates | Distribution / Share |

"Next expected" is estimated from NVDW's recent payment rhythm — the fund announces exact dates shortly before each payout, and the data feed can lag a few days. You must own shares before the ex-dividend date to receive that payout; the cash typically arrives days later. See every fund's upcoming date on the live dividend calendar.
A real total-return estimate, assuming every payout was reinvested — including what happened to the share price. Before taxes and fees. Past performance does not predict the future.
Within the last ten weeks NVDW has paid $0.126 and $0.399 — a 3x spread — while doing exactly what its prospectus says. The payout formula reads Nvidia's weekly move and its implied volatility, then sizes the check. Screeners that flag payment "cuts" on funds like this generate noise: the meaningful signal is the rolling total, and NVDW's trailing year paid $20.43 per share against a recent ~$35 price.
The suite matters too: WeeklyPay siblings AAPW (Apple) and MSTW (MicroStrategy) run the same formula on different fuel, and YieldMax's NVDY is the covered-call take on the same stock. The compare tool overlays any pair.

When Is NVDW's Next Ex-Dividend Date?
NVDW pays weekly — set by formula each week. The exact date of each payout is announced by the fund only shortly beforehand, so no site can promise the next date — but the live schedule box above shows the most recent ex-dividend date and the expected window for the next one, computed from NVDW's actual payment rhythm. Remember: you must own shares before the ex-dividend date to receive that payout.
Nvidia, Leveraged, Paid Out Weekly
NVDW launched in March 2025 as part of Roundhill's WeeklyPay suite: funds that hold a leveraged position in a single stock — here, 120% of Nvidia's weekly return — and pay a weekly distribution sized by a formula reading the stock's performance and implied volatility. It has paid 78 straight weeks since March 3, 2025, at a 0.99% expense ratio, totaling $20.43 per share over the trailing twelve months.
The Formula Is the Point — and the Confusion
Unlike a covered-call fund, NVDW doesn't earn its distribution by selling options; the payout is a designed release of the position's value, recalculated weekly. That design makes single-week comparisons meaningless: the record shows $0.126 one week and $0.399 another inside the same ten-week stretch, with nothing wrong either time. It also means the fund's long-run return is Nvidia's leveraged path minus what was paid out — in a sustained NVDA decline, weekly checks continue while the share price absorbs 1.2x the fall.
Judging a WeeklyPay Fund Honestly
Ignore any single check. The questions that matter: is the rolling four-week payout holding? And is the share price keeping enough value that the checks aren't just returning your own capital? The By-the-Numbers block above computes both from the live record, the Erosion Index tracks the price side against every other fund, and the compare tool puts NVDW next to NVDY — same stock, entirely different machine — in one chart.
