Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Buy-Write Opportunities Fund pays distributions monthly. Its next distribution, $0.10 per share, has been declared with an ex-date of October 15, 2026 and a pay date of October 30, 2026.

Over the trailing twelve months, the fund paid $1.19 per share, a yield of 7.98% at a share price of $14.93.

The table holds the last 20 distributions, with ex-dates from March 2025 to October 2026. Every one of them is shown at $0.10 per share, so the amount has been steady across this window. Ex-dates usually fall on or near the 15th of the month, and payment follows at the end of the same month. The source gives a growth streak of two years, based on calendar-year totals; the amounts in the table itself do not show a step-up.

If the monthly pattern holds, the distribution after the declared October one would go ex-distribution in mid-November 2026 and be paid at the end of November.
