Vanguard Morningstar Mid-Cap Growth Index Fund;Admiral dividend reflects the fund's focus on passively tracking a growth-oriented index of U.S. mid-cap companies, which tend to expand faster than the average mid-sized firm but carry more price volatility. The current yield is 0.6%, with a trailing annual dividend rate of $0.7739 per share paid quarterly. The next ex-dividend date is June 26, 2026, with the last quarterly payment at $0.1654 per share. With a beta of 1.16, VMGMX carries above-average price swings, making it a better fit for growth-and-income investors who can tolerate volatility in exchange for dividend growth.
Vanguard Morningstar Mid-Cap Growth Index Fund;Admiral pays out dividends as a pass-through of income generated by its underlying holdings, with a payout ratio classified as not applicable (fund/ETF). Vanguard Morningstar Mid-Cap Growth Index Fund;Admiral dividend safety is tied to the income produced by its mid-cap growth holdings rather than a traditional earnings-based payout constraint. The primary risk is that mid-cap growth companies are more volatile than larger firms, and a broad market downturn could reduce the income passed through to shareholders.
Over the past 9 years, Vanguard Morningstar Mid-Cap Growth Index Fund;Admiral dividend history shows a CAGR of 8.5% per year from 2016 to 2025. Per-share payments grew from $0.3690 to $0.7705 over that window (2026 is a partial year and excluded from the growth calculation). The largest annual increase in the window was 23.8% in 2019. The history also contains at least one year-over-year decline exceeding 5%, so growth has not been linear.
| Period | CAGR | From | To |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Year | +8.6% | $0.60 (2022) | $0.77 (2025) |
| 5-Year | +8.7% | $0.51 (2020) | $0.77 (2025) |
| 10-Year | +8.1% | $0.35 (2015) | $0.77 (2025) |
VMGMX fits growth-and-income investors who prioritize dividend growth over current yield, particularly those adding a passively managed mid-cap growth allocation to a broader portfolio. The yield is low (below 2%), currently at 0.6%, though that sits above the 5-year average of 0.49%, meaning income has modestly improved relative to price. An 8.5% annual dividend CAGR over nine years is the real draw here, not the yield itself. The trade-off is clear: investors get meaningful dividend growth and mid-cap growth exposure, but accept a low starting yield and above-average price volatility, with a beta of 1.16.
