DEM Dividend History
WisdomTree Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund is a quarterly-paying ETF from WisdomTree. This page holds all 70 distributions in our record, each with its ex-dividend date, pay date, and amount per share, along with the payout figures that record supports.
Every figure below was read from WisdomTree on Aug 25, 2026. The full citation sits in the Source and Citation card.
What the Record Shows
Next payment window, expected rather than declared: based on the observed 91-day gap between ex-dates, the next ex-date would ordinarily fall between Sep 14, 2026 and Oct 4, 2026. This is a pattern read from the record, not an announcement; the fund can change timing or amount at will.
Growth: DEM's split-adjusted payout for 2025 came in up 7.6% against 2024. The rise has now run 1 complete calendar year in a row (2025 through 2025) in our records, and the real-world streak can be longer than the part we cover.
Trailing twelve months against the year before: down 0.4% on a split-adjusted basis, which is the same question measured on a rolling window rather than calendar years.
Payment range, trailing twelve months: smallest $0.0720 (ex-date Dec 31, 2025), largest $0.8000 (ex-date Sep 25, 2025), a spread of 1,010%. Payments this variable make single-month extrapolation unreliable; use the trailing twelve-month total for planning.
Longer view: across the complete years in our records, the split-adjusted annual payout went from $1.9020 in 2008 to $2.2799 in 2025, a change of +20%.
Coverage: our DEM record starts Dec 17, 2007 and holds 70 payments. That spans 18 complete calendar years which can be compared like for like. Metrics needing more history than that are marked rather than estimated.

Income Targets at the Current Payout
Shares needed to collect each monthly income target at DEM's trailing twelve-month payout of $2.2449 per share. This is arithmetic on the recorded payout, not advice. The capital required depends on the share price on the day you buy, and the payout itself can rise or fall.
| Monthly Income | Yearly Income | Shares Needed (Approx.) |
|---|---|---|
| $250 | $3,000 | 1,337 |
| $500 | $6,000 | 2,673 |
| $1,000 | $12,000 | 5,346 |
| $2,500 | $30,000 | 13,364 |

Full distribution history published by the sponsor, 70 payments from 2007 to 2026-06-25, read from the sponsor's own CSV export of the fund page cited above. The sponsor also published 4 declarations with a zero amount (2015-03-23, 2016-03-21, 2017-03-27, 2018-03-20); they are recorded here and excluded from payment figures, because a declared zero is not a payment.

Growth and Consistency
Computed from the split-adjusted calendar totals above, over the 18 complete years this record holds. A rate needs a complete year at both ends, so the ones the record cannot support are marked rather than estimated.
| Period | Annualised growth | Span |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year | +7.6% | 2024 to 2025 |
| 3 years | -9.4% | 2022 to 2025 |
| 5 years | +5.7% | 2020 to 2025 |
| 10 years | +3.3% | 2015 to 2025 |
Year-Over-Year Changes
Some years hold a different number of payments than the year before them, which happens when a fund changes how often it pays or publishes a year-end supplemental. Comparing those totals produces a decline nobody decided on, so those years are marked uneven and are not counted as cuts.
| Year | Change | Payments | Reading |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 vs 2024 | +7.6% | 4 → 5 | uneven year |
| 2024 vs 2023 | -5.2% | 4 → 4 | cut |

Is DEM's dividend growing?

How many shares of DEM does it take to make $1,000 a month?
At the trailing twelve-month payout of $2.2449 per share, about 5,346 shares. The capital that requires depends on the share price on the day you buy, and the payout itself can change; the income table on this page shows other targets.
Why do DEM's payments vary so much?
Across trailing twelve months the smallest payment was $0.0720 and the largest $0.8000, a spread of 1,010%. Funds whose distributions depend on option income or portfolio flows pay what the period produced, so single payments are a poor basis for income planning. Trailing twelve-month totals absorb this variation.
