What ACRT Does, Per the Filing
ACRT launched on August 14, 2026 — the small-cap member of ProShares' autocallable suite (with ACSP and ACQQ), and the only fund in the six-fund autocall wave built on the Russell 2000. That makes it the category's most distinctive entry: nobody else is selling autocall income on small caps.
The machinery is the suite's laddered design — autocallable positions with staggered maturities paying fixed coupons while the Russell 2000 holds above its threshold, auto-redeeming at checkpoints, absorbing losses only through a deep barrier. Small caps are the most volatile of the three underlyings, which means the richest coupon pricing — and the most barrier risk in a downturn. Higher toll, closer cliff. The full machinery is in our autocallable ETF explainer.
Registered under an earlier "Income Accelerator" name and renamed in July 2026. ACRT has paid once: $0.560224 per share, ex-dividend October 1, 2026, about 2.5% of its NAV that day — on the smallest asset base of the three, roughly $1.5 million.
What Nobody Can Know Yet
ACRT has paid once, so there is a short record rather than a settled one, no real yield, and no evidence of how its strategy behaves across a full cycle. One check cannot be annualised into a yield, and anyone doing it is quoting a projection. Filings also get delayed, renamed, or quietly abandoned; this page's status updates daily either way. From here we chart every payment from its very first one, free.

Frequently Asked Questions
When did ACRT launch?
It launched Aug 14, 2026. The registration was first seen in SEC records dated Jul 24, 2026; issuers typically launch within months of filing, but filings can also stall. The status box above updates daily, and the launch tracker shows everything else on the runway.
What will ACRT pay?
It has paid once. The first was $0.560224, ex-dividend Oct 1, 2026. One check is a data point, not a yield, and this page will not annualise it. The strategy is option-income, so distributions would depend on real option premiums once live.
Why would an income investor want autocall exposure to small caps?
Coupon pricing. Autocall coupons are set by the underlying's volatility, and the Russell 2000 is the most volatile of the three suite underlyings — so its ladder should, on paper, price the richest income of the family. The trade-off is symmetrical: more volatility also means the deep barrier is more likely to be tested in a sharp small-cap selloff. Until real distributions exist, that's the theory to verify against the checks.
