The Ausbil Active Dividend Income Fund – Active ETF (ASX:DIVI), managed by Ausbil Investment Management Limited, announced on 25 September 2026 an estimated monthly distribution of 4.90 cents per unit (CPU) for the period ending 30 September 2026.

Recent Development

On 25 September 2026, Ausbil Investment Management Limited, as Responsible Entity of DIVI, released the estimated distribution and timetable for the monthly period ending 30 September 2026. The estimated distribution is 4.90 cents per unit. The DRP election deadline is 30 September 2026, with the ex-distribution date on 1 October 2026 and the Record Date on 2 October 2026. The final distribution amount will be announced on 7 October 2026, with payment also on 7 October 2026. Unitholders must be registered as of the record date of 2 October 2026 to be eligible. DRP elections must be submitted by 4:00pm Sydney time on 30 September 2026, with DRP units issued at the fund's price at the end of the distribution period less the distribution entitlement.

Share Performance

DIVI units closed at AUD 11.28 on 25 September 2026, down 0.44% (-AUD 0.05) on the day. The slight decline is attributable to the approach of the ex-distribution date, as unit prices typically soften to reflect the upcoming distribution.

About the Fund

The Ausbil Active Dividend Income Fund – Active ETF delivers regular monthly income by actively managing a concentrated portfolio of high-dividend Australian equities. It provides investors with exposure to the income characteristics of the Australian Equity market in a transparent, actively managed ETF wrapper.

Risks and Uncertainties

The 4.90 CPU estimate is provisional, and the final distribution — to be announced 7 October 2026 — may differ. The fund's income generation is dependent on dividends received from its underlying portfolio holdings, which are subject to the payout decisions of Australian companies. Any reduction in underlying dividend payments during economic downturns could reduce future distribution levels.

Catalysts to Watch

The final distribution announcement on 7 October 2026 will confirm whether the 4.90 CPU estimate holds. DRP-eligible investors must act by 30 September 2026. The broader direction of Australian corporate Earnings and dividend payout ratios heading into the FY2027 reporting cycle will influence future monthly distributions.

Final Word

A 4.90 CPU monthly distribution from DIVI offers consistent income for yield-oriented investors, translating to an annualised run rate of approximately 58.8 CPU at current levels. As always with estimated distributions, investors should wait for the 7 October 2026 final announcement before placing undue reliance on the estimate.
