Why the distribution rate and the SEC yield are so different

They measure different things. The distribution rate annualises the latest payout against the share price. The SEC 30-day yield is a standard formula that counts only the fund's net investment income, such as dividends and interest, after expenses. Option premium is not included in it, so for option-income funds the two figures are usually far apart.

What happens to the price on the ex-date

On an ex-date the payout leaves the fund, so the price usually falls by about that amount. Over NVIT's last 12 ex-dates the closing price fell a median $0.30, against a median payout of $0.24. The price also moves with the market on the day.

About 28% a year if the latest payout repeated for a year at the 5 November 2026 price of $41.31. Payouts change, so this is not a forecast.

Is NVIT's dividend return of capital?

In NVIT's Section 19(a) notices, YieldMax estimated 95% of the 14 October 2026 payout as return of capital. This is a tax classification, not a measure of the fund's performance: return of capital usually lowers your cost basis instead of being taxed as income now. Estimates can change, and the final figures are on your year-end Form 1099-DIV. Ask a tax adviser how it applies to you.

YieldMax reported net assets of $14.5M on 6 November 2026, up from $13.1M on 7 October 2026.
