European Equity Fund pays distributions twice a year, and often splits one ex-date into two or three separate amounts. Its most recent [ex-date](/instructions/learning/ex-dividend-date) was May 26, 2026, with payments of $0.20 and $0.02 per share, $0.22 in all, paid on June 29, 2026. Over the trailing twelve months, the fund paid $0.97 per share, a [yield](/instructions/learning/dividend-yield) of 9.35% at a share price of $10.36.

The amounts vary widely. The December ex-date is usually the larger one: December 2025 brought $0.58 and $0.17, or $0.75 together, and December 2021 brought three payments totalling $1.46. The May ex-dates have mostly been small, between $0.03 and $0.04 in 2021, 2024 and 2025, but May 2022 came to $0.72 and May 2026 to $0.22. By calendar year, payments totalled $0.18 in 2024 and $0.78 in 2025. The table shows no ex-dates in 2023. The source gives a growth streak of one year.

Ex-dates have fallen in mid to late May and in the last days of December, with payment about one month later. If that pattern holds, the next distribution would go ex-dividend in late December 2026 and be paid in late January 2027.
