Adviser also announces latest monthly dividends for BNDS, SCAP, and ICAP ETFs
NEW YORK, July 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Infrastructure Capital Advisors, LLC (Infrastructure Capital), a leading provider of investment management solutions designed to meet the needs of income-focused investors, is excited to declare its first distribution for the Infrastructure Capital Nasdaq Option Income ETF (QVOL). This actively managed ETF seeks to generate high monthly income by combining options premium strategies with equity exposure to the Nasdaq Composite Index. QVOL has declared a distribution of $1.04 per share.
QVOL intends to target an annualized distribution rate range of between 12% and 15% through option premiums earned from selling call options and dividends received from the Fund's equity holdings. This target range reflects Infrastructure Capital's expectations based on the options premiums QVOL seeks to generate and the annualized effect of those premiums. There is no assurance QVOL will achieve its target annualized distribution rate range, and the target annualized distribution rate range does not represent a 12% to 15% yield or a 12% to 15% total return. Actual distributions may be higher or lower depending on market conditions and QVOL's results. Distributions may include a portion classified as return of capital. Return of capital generally represents a return of a shareholder's invested capital rather than traditional income such as dividends or interest.
QVOL has declared a monthly distribution of $1.04 per share ($12.4 per share on an annualized basis).

QVOL is designed to deliver an attractive income stream through a disciplined options-writing strategy, while maintaining the potential for capital appreciation through selective equity positioning. The fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in equity securities and option contracts tied to the Nasdaq, utilizing both quantitative and qualitative analysis to identify relative value opportunities.
"In the current market environment, investors are seeking consistent income without giving up exposure to growth, particularly in the information technology sector," said Jay Hatfield, CEO and CIO of Infrastructure Capital Advisors. "QVOL is built to monetize the increased volatility we've seen across Nasdaq-listed companies through active options strategies while maintaining the careful and pragmatic approach to portfolio and product construction that Infrastructure Capital has become well known for."
This new addition to Infrastructure Capital's suite of dynamic ETFs leverages the firm's established investment process, including company-level fundamental modeling, valuation-driven price targets, and active volatility management. The firm manages $4.0 billion in assets as of 07/29/2026 and delivers income-focused investment solutions to their clients.
QVOL joins the Infrastructure Capital ETF lineup, which includes the Virtus InfraCap U.S. Preferred Stock ETF (NYSE Arca: PFFA), InfraCap REIT Preferred ETF (NYSE Arca: PFFR), InfraCap MLP ETF (NYSE Arca: AMZA), the Infrastructure Capital Equity Income ETF (NYSE Arca: ICAP), Infrastructure Capital Small Cap Income ETF (NYSE Arca: SCAP), Infrastructure Capital Bond Income ETF (NYSE Arca: BNDS) and the Infrastructure Capital Preferred Income UCITS ETF (FTSE MIB: PFFI).

BNDS ETF strategy is to target high yield investments across fixed-income securities, predominately focusing on corporate bonds. Infrastructure Capital seeks positive security selection versus the benchmark by using a mix of quantitative and qualitative analysis with an emphasis on fixed-income securities that are believed to be undervalued when considering factors such as term premium, credit premium, liquidity premium, industry, sector, and market capitalization.
SCAP ETF seeks total return through a blended approach of capital appreciation and current income. The Fund focuses primarily on the securities of U.S.-listed small cap companies, which is defined as companies with a market capitalization within the range of companies in the Russell 2000 Index. Investments may take the form of common stocks, preferred stocks, convertible securities, debt instruments, equity-linked notes, or other small cap-focused ETFs.
ICAP ETF will primarily invest in equity securities of companies with a strong track record of paying dividends during normal market conditions. The Fund's portfolio of equities will generally be a diversified selection of securities, including a broad cross-section of sectors and sub-sectors, such as REITs, Utilities, Industrials, pipelines, and financials.
