Per-share payments grew from $0.3250 to $8.2851 over that span (2026 is a partial year and excluded from this calculation).

| Period | CAGR | From | To |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10-Year | +19.6% | $1.39 (2015) | $8.29 (2025) |
AEPGX fits dividend investors who prioritize high current income from international equity exposure and can accept year-to-year variability in payment size. The yield is classified as high (above 4%), currently at 16.51%, which is well above the fund's own 5-year average yield of 5.75%. That gap signals the current payout level is elevated relative to its own history, and since distributions depend on the performance of European and Pacific Rim growth stocks, income is not guaranteed to hold at this level. The trade-off is straightforward: investors get an outsized yield today, but accept meaningful distribution volatility tied to international equity markets.
