What the record shows
SOXY has made 21 monthly distributions since payments began in 2025, leaving a brief record but an established monthly cadence. Over the last 12 months, SOXY paid $9.071 per share, equal to a 9.47% trailing yield.
The recent run moved higher overall. Its recent average distribution was $0.937 per share, up from a prior average of $0.835, a 12.2% increase. The latest distribution was $0.883 per share and was 0.9% lower than the preceding payment.
The opening year's total was $6.821 per share across 13 payments. That period was short only because payments began during it, so it does not establish a comparable annual direction. Over the same trailing period, the price rose 71.9%, while distributions equaled 16.3% of the price a year earlier, producing an approximate total return of 88.2%. The distributions therefore supplemented a rising price rather than offsetting a price decline.

A high distribution rate paired with a falling price means part of the payout came back out of the share price. Total return adds distributions received to the price change; it ignores reinvestment and taxes.

Amounts are per share and adjusted for stock splits, so early payments appear smaller than the cash paid at the time; a year with an extra or missing ex-date shows as a jump in the annual table. Change compares each regular payment with the previous regular one; payments of at least 2.5 times the recent median are treated as specials.
