NVII Distribution History Trend
NVII has paid 65 weekly distributions on record since inception (2025-05-28). The average distribution over the trailing 12 periods is $0.22 per share. The highest distribution was $0.35 (week of 2026-09-01) and the lowest was $0.17 (week of 2026-08-25). Distribution variance of $0.18 reflects how sensitive the option premium on REX NVDA Growth & Income's underlying exposure is to market volatility — richer weeks follow volatility spikes, thinner weeks follow calm markets.
Fund Overview
NVII — REX NVDA Growth & Income ETF — is a weekly-distribution ETF issued by REX Shares that generates income by selling call options against REX exposure. The fund targets investors seeking high-frequency cash flow from REX exposure without holding the underlying directly. Distributions are paid weekly, with the ex-dividend date typically falling on a Tuesday. The current annualized yield of 52.11% is calculated from the most recent weekly distribution of $0.2389 per share divided by the current share price of $23.84 and multiplied by 52. As with all option-income funds, the distribution rate reflects current implied volatility in REX options — when volatility falls, distributions typically shrink. The fund has $104.0 million in assets under management and has returned -16.44% on a price basis year-to-date, excluding distributions.
Compared to similar REX Shares funds, NVII ranks 2 out of 7 by current yield and 4 out of 7 by year-to-date price performance.
Annual Yield Calculations
Both figures start from the same per-period rate: the average of the last 3 distributions ($0.24) divided by the current price ($23.84) = 1.002% per week. The non-DRIP yield annualizes it simply; the DRIP yield compounds it over 52 periods.
WeeklyYield™ Actual Performance
How YTD & performance are calculated: YTD returns shown across WeeklyYield are price-only, using split-adjusted close-to-close prices from the first trading day of the calendar year to the latest close — the same method your brokerage uses. Dividends are tracked separately in the yield figures above. "Actual Non-DRIP" and "Actual DRIP" add distributions back in to show total return since the earliest price we have on record (2025-09-02 at $31.05), using the same 53 distributions in both — non-DRIP collects them as cash, DRIP buys shares at each ex-date close.

About This ETF
The REX NVDA Growth & Income ETF (NVII) is an exchange-traded fund that mostly invests in information technology equity. The fund seeks to provide weekly distributions through a synthetic covered call strategy on Nvidia (NVDA), while also aiming for 105% to 150% of NVDAs daily share price performance. The actively managed fund uses both standardized exchange-traded and FLEX options, collateralized by US treasuries. NVII was launched on May 28, 2025 and is issued by REX Shares.
How NVII Generates Income
NVII generates weekly income by selling call options on REX or a synthetic equivalent. When the fund sells a call option, it collects a premium from the buyer — this premium is what funds the weekly distribution. The tradeoff is that the fund caps its upside: if REX rallies sharply above the strike price, the fund does not fully participate in that gain. In a flat or declining market the income generation continues while the fund absorbs price losses similar to holding the underlying. The size of the weekly distribution directly reflects implied volatility in REX options at the time the options were written — higher volatility means more expensive options and larger distributions, lower volatility means smaller ones. This makes the distribution variable week to week rather than fixed.
Distribution Composition and Tax Considerations
Not all of NVII's weekly distributions represent taxable income. Option-income funds frequently classify part of each distribution as return of capital (ROC), which is not taxable in the year received but reduces your cost basis in the fund. When your cost basis reaches zero, subsequent ROC distributions become taxable as capital gains. The exact composition of each distribution — ordinary income, qualified dividends, short-term capital gains, long-term capital gains, and return of capital — is reported annually on Form 1099-DIV and may not be known until after the tax year ends. Holding NVII in a tax-advantaged account (IRA, Roth IRA, 401k) eliminates the annual tax complexity entirely and is the approach most income-focused investors use for high-distribution funds.

NVII has paid 12 weekly distributions over the past 12 weeks. The average weekly distribution over this period was $0.2247 per share. The highest distribution in the trailing 12 weeks was $0.3494 (ex-date 2026-09-01) and the lowest was $0.1681 (ex-date 2026-08-25). Distribution consistency — the variance between the highest and lowest payment — is one indicator of underlying volatility stability. High variance suggests the fund's income generation is sensitive to volatility swings in REX options.
