How Many MINT Shares for $500 or $1,000 a Month?
At $3.94 a share a year, $500 a month takes about 1,525 MINT shares, about $153,247 at the Nov 10, 2026 close of $100.49. $1,000 a month takes about 3,049 shares, about $306,394. Before taxes, and only while the rate holds.
PIMCO Enhanced Short Maturity Active Exchange-Traded Fund (MINT) pays $0.328 a share monthly, $3.94 a year, a 3.92% run-rate yield at the Nov 10, 2026 close of $100.49. It has made 210 distribution payments since 2009.
At today’s rate of $0.328 monthly and the last close of $100.49, this is what MINT pays before taxes, if the rate stays where it is:
| You hold | Each payment | Per month (avg) | Per year |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 share | $0.328 | $0.33 | $3.94 |
| 100 shares | $32.80 | $32.80 | $393.60 |
| $10,000 invested (99.5 shares) | $32.64 | $32.64 | $391.68 |
| 1,525 shares ($500/mo) | $500.20 | $500.20 | $6,002.40 |
| 3,049 shares ($1,000/mo) | $1,000.07 | $1,000.07 | $12,000.86 |
With DRIP on, every payment buys more shares instead of landing as cash. 100 MINT shares reinvest into 0.33 new shares each payment, about 4.0 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 307 shares. A rising payout speeds that up; a falling share price buys more shares per payment, but each is worth less. See the snowball over 10 to 30 years with MINT’s own history in the MINT DRIP calculator.
The payout is not the return. In the 12 months to Nov 10, 2026, MINT paid $3.73 a share and its share price went from $100.43 to $100.49, so total return covered every dollar paid.

MINT Dividend Yield Today vs Its 5-Year Range
- MINT yields 3.92% today, at the Nov 10, 2026 close of $100.49.
- Its own 10-year median is 2.60%, so today’s yield is near its usual level.
- No steady norm: a recent payout drop skews its yield history. So this reads today’s yield against its own 10-year history as it is.
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 MINT’s Next Distribution? Ex-Date and Pay Date After October 2026
MINT has not declared its next distribution yet. By its usual gap of about 30 days the next ex-date was due around Oct 31, 2026, and it is not on file yet: it may be late, or still to be announced. The latest one, $0.328 a share, went ex on Oct 1, 2026 and paid Oct 5, 2026.
- Ex-dates: about every 30 days (monthly)
- Payment: usually about 2 days after the ex-date
Every payer going ex-dividend this week is on the dividend calendar.
How Often Does MINT Pay?
MINT pays monthly, 12 times a year. The ex-date comes about every 30 days, and the cash usually lands about 2 days later.
MINT vs Similar Dividend Funds (DUKH, SPMD...)
Against the 10 dividend funds in Asset Management closest to MINT in fund size, MINT’s 3.92% run-rate yield is above the group’s middle yield of 1.49%. A higher yield than the group is not a bonus by itself: in income funds it often comes with a faster-falling share price, so read it next to the NAV trend and the rating.
