State Street Materials Select Sector SPDR ETF is a fund that pays quarterly distributions. Its most recent distribution was $0.23 per share, with an ex-date of September 21, 2026 and a pay date of September 23, 2026. Over the trailing twelve months, it paid $0.86 per share, a yield of about 1.73% at a share price of $49.85.

Starting with the December 2025 distribution, per-share amounts have been at a level about half that of the earlier entries in the table. The history shown is not adjusted for this change, so amounts and calendar-year totals from before December 2025 are not directly comparable with recent ones. The four distributions at the current level were $0.23 in December 2025, $0.21 in March 2026, $0.19 in June 2026 and $0.23 in September 2026. Together they add up to the $0.86 trailing figure.

Ex-dates fall in the second half of March, June, September and December, and payment usually follows two days later. The three distributions with 2026 ex-dates add up to $0.63 so far. If the pattern holds, the next distribution would go ex-distribution in late December 2026 and be paid a few days later.
