The iShares MSCI USA Value Factor ETF dividend targets U.S. large- and mid-cap companies selected for strong value characteristics and comparatively low valuations. VLUE currently yields 1.36%, with a trailing annual dividend rate of $2.8014 per share paid quarterly. The next ex-dividend date is June 15, 2026. A beta of 1.086 means VLUE moves roughly in line with the broader market, making it a fit for growth-and-income investors comfortable with moderate price swings in exchange for dividend growth.
iShares MSCI USA Value Factor ETF pays out dividends as a pass-through from its underlying holdings, making a traditional payout ratio not applicable (fund/ETF). The payout level is determined by the dividends generated by the value-oriented U.S. equities the fund holds, not by a corporate earnings decision. For iShares MSCI USA Value Factor ETF dividend safety, the key variable is the aggregate dividend output of those underlying holdings, which can shift as the index rebalances or as constituent companies adjust their own payouts. The history table shows at least one year-over-year decline exceeding 5%, which confirms the per-share distribution is not insulated from drawdowns.
iShares MSCI USA Value Factor ETF dividend history shows a CAGR of 9.3% per year from 2014 to 2025. Per-share payments grew from $1.0840 to $2.8880 over that span (2026 is a partial year and excluded from the growth calculation). The largest single-year jump in the window was 37.6% in 2016, while the history also contains at least one annual decline exceeding 5%, so the growth path has not been linear.
| Period | CAGR | From | To |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Year | -0.2% | $2.90 (2022) | $2.89 (2025) |
| 5-Year | +6.5% | $2.10 (2020) | $2.89 (2025) |
| 10-Year | +10.6% | $1.06 (2015) | $2.89 (2025) |
VLUE fits growth-and-income investors who want exposure to U.S. value equities and are willing to accept a low current yield in exchange for above-average dividend growth. The yield is low (below 2%) at 1.36%, sitting just above the 5-year average of 1.34%, so there is no meaningful yield expansion on offer right now. What the fund does deliver is a 9.3% annualized growth rate over 11 years, which compounds meaningfully over time. The trade-off is clear: income today is modest, and the distribution can pull back in weaker years, as the history confirms. Investors who prioritize current income over long-run growth will find the yield insufficient.
