How much does $10,000 in PFM pay in dividends?

At PFM's current yield of 1.35%, $10,000 pays about $135.07 a year — roughly $33.77 per payment, paid quarterly, or $11.26 a month averaged out.

What would PFM be worth after 10 years with dividends reinvested?

Reinvesting every dividend and assuming the payment and share price both stay flat, $10,000 in PFM would grow to about $11,444 after 10 years, against $11,351 if the income were taken as cash. That deliberately assumes no dividend growth — a real holding may do better or considerably worse.

How often does PFM pay dividends?

PFM pays quarterly — 4 payments a year — based on its actual payment history rather than an assumed schedule.

Is PFM's dividend guaranteed?

No. Dividends are discretionary and can be reduced or suspended at any time, and every figure here is a projection from the current yield rather than a forecast. Check PFM's full payment history before relying on any of it.

Is PFM's distribution the same as a company dividend?

Not quite. PFM is a fund: it collects dividends from the companies it holds and passes them through after costs, so the distribution moves with the portfolio's income rather than with a single company's decision. It also means no payout ratio applies — there are no earnings of its own to pay out of — and that a rebalance into different holdings can change the distribution on its own.

What makes up PFM's 1.35% yield

PFM is an exchange-traded fund, so the 1.35% on this page is income collected from its holdings and passed through, net of the fund's costs. It is not paid out of PFM's own earnings, which is why no payout ratio appears anywhere on this page — the concept does not apply to a fund. The practical consequence for the projections below is that the distribution moves when the underlying portfolio's income moves, and a fund that rebalances into higher- or lower-yielding positions changes its own payment without any single company having cut one.

A below-median yield is not the same as a weak dividend. It commonly means earnings are being retained and reinvested, or that the share price has risen faster than the payment — in the second case the holder's income did not fall, the yield did. Income is one component of the return on PFM and the smaller one; the figures below are not a total-return estimate.

When PFM pays, and what that changes

PFM pays quarterly, the standard schedule for US-listed payers, so the "per payment" column is one quarter of the annual figure and the "monthly average" column is a smoothed figure rather than a description of when cash arrives — nothing is paid in eight months of the year.

Each payment has an ex-dividend date, and it is the date that governs entitlement: shares bought on or after it do not carry that payment. PFM's full schedule and payment history are on its dividend page.

What stands behind PFM's distribution

There is no coverage ratio to check on a fund. What stands behind PFM's distribution is the aggregate income of everything it holds, so the question that matters is whether those holdings' own payments are durable — a diversified fund will not cut its distribution because one holding did, but it will if many do at once.

The figures hold the dividend flat. No multi-year record of consecutive increases is on file for PFM, so treat the projection as arithmetic on today's payment rather than as an expectation about future ones.
