John Hancock Multifactor Small Cap ETF pays its distributions twice a year, in June and December. Its most recent distribution was $0.19 per share, with an [ex-date](/instructions/learning/ex-dividend-date) of June 26, 2026 and a pay date of June 30, 2026. Over the trailing twelve months, the fund paid $0.49 per share, a [yield](/instructions/learning/dividend-yield) of 1.05% at a share price of $46.40.

The history shown starts in December 2019. No December 2020 distribution is listed, so 2020 has only the June payment. Since 2021 the fund has paid twice in each calendar year, and the December distribution has been the larger of the two every year. June amounts ranged from $0.09 to $0.19, and December amounts from $0.20 to $0.30.

Distributions with ex-dates in each calendar year added up to $0.39 in 2021, $0.34 in 2022, $0.36 in 2023, $0.39 in 2024 and $0.47 in 2025. That is a rise of about 38% from 2022 to 2025, and the source counts a growth streak of three calendar years. Payment usually follows the ex-date by two to six days. If the pattern holds, the next distribution would go ex-distribution in late December 2026 and be paid by the end of the month.
