- The record so far: 24 weekly distributions from April 16 to September 24, 2026, totalling $1.7467 per share — figures from VegaShares' own distribution table.
- Remarkably even: every payment has landed between $0.0680 and $0.0770, a spread of about 12% around a $0.0728 average. For an options-income fund that is a narrow band.
- But most of it is your own money back: return of capital has averaged 95.2% of each distribution, ranging from 51.5% to 100%.
- It is very small: net assets were $2,751,941.70 on September 24, 2026 — 110,000 shares at a $25.02 NAV. Small funds are the ones that get closed.
- Total expense ratio 0.76%: a 0.68% management fee plus 0.08% of acquired fund fees, per the issuer. Inception was April 2, 2026, on Nasdaq.
No year-over-year figure appears on this page, and that is deliberate: ODTE is under six months old, so there is no prior year to compare against. Anything labelled “trailing twelve months” for this fund would really be everything it has ever paid, wearing a misleading label.
Each bar is one weekly distribution. The chart draws from market data and can lag the issuer by a day right after an ex-date, so where the two disagree, the figures quoted in the text above come from VegaShares' own table.

Each point is one payment; the line ends at the most recent payout. The table below totals them by year.
- Trailing 12 months: $1.80 per share across 25 payments — paying since Apr 2026, so no full prior-year comparison yet. What a change like that does to your income →
- Current pace: recent payments annualize to $3.59 — a projection, not a promise: the fund hasn't paid for a full year yet. Live cut & raise board →
- Record: 25 payments over 6 months; the largest single payment was $0.075 (May 2026).
- Payment drops ≥20% below trend, last 24 months: none. Get one short email if that changes →
- Payment steadiness: the last 12 checks wobble ±4% around their median. Compare that against any fund →

| Recent Ex-Dividend Dates | Distribution / Share |

"Next expected" is estimated from ODTE'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.
Return of capital means the payment is classified, for tax purposes, as giving you back part of your own investment rather than as income the fund earned. Across ODTE's 24 payments that classification has averaged 95.2%.
That sounds damning and the honest answer is more careful. Destructive return of capital shows up as a falling NAV: the fund hands out money it did not make, and the share price sinks to pay for it. ODTE launched at $25.00 and its NAV was $25.02 on September 24 — flat across five months of weekly payments. So the distributions have been funded so far, whatever the tax label says.
What you cannot conclude is that this continues. Five months is a short record, the strategy sells options that expire the same day, and the one thing 0DTE positions are reliably sensitive to is a sharp move. The test is whether NAV still sits near $25 after a bad quarter, and that quarter has not happened yet. Watch the chart above and the NAV together; either alone will mislead you.

When Is ODTE's Next Ex-Dividend Date?
ODTE pays weekly, per VegaShares' own fund page. 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 ODTE's actual payment rhythm. Remember: you must own shares before the ex-dividend date to receive that payout.
ODTE is on this site because our fund radar had a blind spot, not because it launched. VegaShares was not among the issuers we watched, so a fund that had been paying weekly since April went unnoticed until we added the issuer in September 2026. The record below was already five months deep the day we first charted it.
The strategy is unusual enough to state plainly. Most option-income ETFs sell options with weeks or months until expiry. ODTE writes zero-days-to-expiry options, which expire the same session. That produces premium far more frequently, which is how a fund this young already has 24 payments, and it also means the fund is repeatedly exposed to whatever happens between the trade and the close.
What the payment record shows so far is consistency: 24 payments inside a $0.0680 to $0.0770 band, with no missed week. What it cannot show is behaviour under stress, because there has not been any. The two numbers we would watch instead of the distribution are the NAV, which has held near its $25.00 launch level, and the net assets, which at roughly $2.75 million are small enough that closure is a real possibility rather than a theoretical one. Our guide to what happens when an ETF closes covers what that would actually mean for a holder.

ODTE is young and small. The most useful thing you can do with it is put it side by side with a fund that has a longer record.
