Defiance Daily Target 2X Short SMCI ETF has paid a single distribution so far. That distribution was $1.18 per share, with an [ex-date](/instructions/learning/ex-dividend-date) of December 30, 2025 and a pay date of December 31, 2025. Over the trailing twelve months, the fund paid $1.18 per share, a [yield](/instructions/learning/dividend-yield) of 28.88% at a share price of $4.09.

The record shown is very short. The table holds just this one payment, so the trailing twelve-month figure and the yield both rest on a single distribution. There is no earlier entry to compare it with, and no second calendar year in the table, so the source shows no growth streak. The payment was made one day after the ex-date, on the last day of 2025.

The source describes the frequency as annual, and no distribution has been listed so far in 2026. With one entry, the history does not show a pattern in the amount or how it might change from year to year. If the annual pattern the source describes holds, the next distribution would go ex-distribution in late December 2026 and be paid within a day or two, around the end of the year.
