How Many EPS Shares for $500 or $1,000 a Month?
At $0.90 a share a year, $500 a month takes about 6,667 EPS shares, about $521,959 at the Nov 10, 2026 close of $78.29. $1,000 a month takes about 13,334 shares, about $1,043,919. Before taxes, and only while the rate holds.
WisdomTree U.S. LargeCap Fund (EPS) pays $0.225 a share quarterly, $0.90 a year, a 1.15% run-rate yield at the Nov 10, 2026 close of $78.29. It has made 79 dividend payments since 2007.
At today’s rate of $0.225 quarterly and the last close of $78.29, this is what EPS pays before taxes, if the rate stays where it is:
| You hold | Each payment | Per month (avg) | Per year |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 share | $0.225 | $0.08 | $0.90 |
| 100 shares | $22.50 | $7.50 | $90.00 |
| $10,000 invested (127.7 shares) | $28.74 | $9.58 | $114.96 |
| 6,667 shares ($500/mo) | $1,500.08 | $500.03 | $6,000.30 |
| 13,334 shares ($1,000/mo) | $3,000.15 | $1,000.05 | $12,000.60 |
With DRIP on, every payment buys more shares instead of landing as cash. 100 EPS shares reinvest into 0.29 new shares each payment, about 1.2 new shares a year at today’s price and rate, and each new share collects the next payment too. To DRIP one whole new share every payment you need about 348 shares. A rising payout speeds that up; a falling share price buys more shares per payment, but each is worth less.

EPS Dividend Yield Today vs Its 5-Year Range

- Its own 10-year median is 1.71%, so today’s yield is well below its usual level.
Where today ranks in its own history is in the paid report
How it works. Each month-end over the last 10 years gives one yield: the regular payment then, times payments a year, over that day’s close. Specials are left out. 50 means today’s yield sits right at its usual level. A lower score means the yield is below its usual level, so the price is high against the payout. A higher score means the yield is above its usual level. On price alone a payer stays between 15 and 85. Steady raisers get a few points back. It reads the past, not the future.
When Is EPS’s Next Dividend? Ex-Date and Pay Date After September 2026

Against the 10 dividend funds in Asset Management closest to EPS in fund size, EPS’s 1.15% run-rate yield is below the group’s middle yield of 1.55%. A higher yield than the group is not a bonus by itself: it is often the market pricing in a cut, so read it next to the rating and the coverage behind it.

What the Dividend Safety Rating Means for EPS
EPS Dividend Questions
How often does EPS pay dividends?
EPS pays quarterly, 4 times a year. Recent payments arrived in Mar, Jun, Sep and Dec, with ex-dates in Mar, Jun, Sep and Dec. The ex-date comes about every 92 days, and the cash usually lands about 3 days later.
Does EPS pay dividends monthly?
No. EPS pays quarterly, 4 times a year. For payers that pay every month, see the monthly dividend stocks.
When is the next EPS dividend?
EPS has not declared its next dividend yet. By its usual rhythm of about 92 days between ex-dates, the next ex-date falls around Dec 26, 2026, with the cash around Dec 29, 2026. An estimate, not a promise: only the declaration makes it final. The latest one, $0.225 a share, went ex on Sep 25, 2026 and paid Sep 28, 2026. The current rate is $0.225 per share, $0.90 a year.
Does EPS pay a dividend in December 2026?
Not declared yet. By its usual rhythm the next ex-date falls around Dec 26, 2026, with the cash around Dec 29, 2026, so a payment in December 2026 is likely. Only the company’s declaration makes it final.
How much does EPS pay per share?
EPS pays $0.225 a share quarterly, $0.90 a year. At the Nov 10, 2026 close of $78.29 that is a 1.15% run-rate yield, well below its usual level: its own 10-year median is 1.71%.
Does EPS’s payout grow?
Its last 4 payments added up to $0.895, against $0.9002 for the 4 before (-0.6%). A fund passes through what its holdings pay, so its payout moves with them rather than on a set raise schedule. Measured over a full year, the payout rate changed +0.0%.
Is EPS’s dividend safe?
No rating can promise a future payment, but the record on file says a lot. This is data, not investment advice. The full 3-check rating comes with a plan.
How do I track my EPS dividends?
Add EPS to a free DRIPCalc portfolio once, with your buy date and share count. Every payout since fills in, dated and in dollars; with DRIP on, the new shares each payment buys are counted for you, so there is no spreadsheet to update and no broker login. To project the snowball, run EPS in the DRIP calculator.
