What makes up TLH's 4.77% yield
TLH is an exchange-traded fund, so the 4.77% on this page is income collected from its holdings and passed through, net of the fund's costs. It is not paid out of TLH'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.
Yields at this level usually have a structural explanation rather than a mispricing: the fund is organised to distribute income rather than retain it. Worth checking how TLH's current yield compares with its own history, since a sharp recent rise more often reflects a falling price than a raised payment.
When TLH pays, and what that changes
TLH pays monthly, so the "per payment" column above is a genuine monthly figure rather than a quarterly sum divided down. For income being drawn rather than reinvested, that alignment with monthly outgoings is the practical difference between a monthly payer and a quarterly one.
Frequency also compounds slightly faster when the income is reinvested: twelve reinvestments a year at the same annual rate finish marginally ahead of four, and the reinvestment figures above already reflect TLH's actual schedule rather than an assumed quarterly one.
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. TLH's full schedule and payment history are on its dividend page.
What stands behind TLH's distribution
There is no coverage ratio to check on a fund. What stands behind TLH'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. TLH has raised its payment in each of the last 3 years, which is a shorter record than the multi-decade streaks found among the longest-standing payers, and not yet long enough to have been tested across a full cycle.
TLH dividend calculator FAQ
- How much does $10,000 in TLH pay in dividends?
- At TLH's current yield of 4.77%, $10,000 pays about $477.17 a year — roughly $39.76 per payment, paid monthly, or $39.76 a month averaged out.
- What would TLH be worth after 10 years with dividends reinvested?
- Reinvesting every dividend and assuming the payment and share price both stay flat, $10,000 in TLH would grow to about $16,100 after 10 years, against $14,772 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 TLH pay dividends?
- TLH pays monthly — 12 payments a year — based on its actual payment history rather than an assumed schedule.
- Is TLH'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 TLH's full payment history before relying on any of it.
- Why is TLH's dividend yield so high?
- TLH yields 4.77% against a 2.92% median across US dividend payers. A yield is a ratio, so it rises either because the payment went up or because the share price came down — and the figure alone does not say which. As a fund, its distribution reflects the income of its holdings rather than a decision by any one company.
- Does TLH pay dividends monthly?
- Yes. TLH pays monthly — twelve payments a year — based on its actual payment history rather than an assumed schedule. At the current 4.77% yield, $10,000 produces about $39.76 a month before tax.
- Is TLH's distribution the same as a company dividend?
- Not quite. TLH 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.
