Westwood Holdings Group announced monthly income distributions for three ETFs (MDST, WEEI and YLDW) that deliver income from dividends and options premiums.

Westwood Holdings Group (WHG), a publicly-traded investment management boutique and wealth management firm, today announced monthly income distributions for Westwood Salient Enhanced Midstream Income ETF (NYSE: MDST), Westwood Salient Enhanced Energy Income ETF (NASDAQ: WEEI) and Westwood Enhanced Income Opportunity (YLDW) as shown in the table below. Part of the Westwood Income Series ETFs, these deliver income from both dividends and options premiums to help provide monthly income distributions for investors.

MDST, WEEI and YLDW are actively managed funds, designed to help provide advisors and investors with robust investments for generating high distributable monthly income, combining dividend yield (distributions paid from the Fund's net investment income) and options premiums from covered calls, while also offering the potential for equity appreciation within the energy sector.

Launched April 8, 2024, MDST seeks to deliver current income and capital appreciation by investing in midstream energy companies, defined as companies and master limited partnerships (MLPs) that gather, transport, store and distribute crude oil, natural gas and other energy products. The fund combines dividend yield and options premiums from covered calls to target monthly income distributions. MDST currently has $188 million in net assets, as of January 29, 2026.

WEEI, which launched April 30, 2024, offers broad exposure to energy companies, including upstream, downstream, oil service and integrated companies that operate in all phases of oil exploration, production, service and distribution. Like MDST, WEEI combines dividend yield and options premiums from covered calls to target monthly income distributions. WEEI currently has $40 million in net assets as of January 29, 2026.

YLDW, which launched Dec. 11, 2025 , seeks to provide current income and capital appreciation from a variety of asset classes including equities, investment grade corporate bonds, high yield bonds, convertible bonds, preferred securities and other income-oriented assets. YLDW currently has $10 million in net assets as of January 29, 2026.

The performance data quoted represents past performance. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted above. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

NAV Return represents the closing price of underlying securities. Market Return is calculated using the price which investors buy and sell ETF shares in the market. The market returns in the table are based upon the midpoint of the bid/ask spread at 4:00 pm EST, and do not represent the returns you would have received if you traded shares at other times.

1The Annualized Distribution Rate shown is as of January 29, 2026. The Annualized Distribution Rate is the rate an investor would receive if the most recent distribution, which includes option premium income, remained the same going forward. The Annualized Distribution Rate is calculated by multiplying an ETF's Distribution per Share by twelve (12), and dividing the resulting amount by the ETF's most recent NAV. The Distribution Rate represents a single distribution from the ETF and does not represent its total return. The current months distribution is 100% return of capital (ROC) for MDST and WEEI. Distributions may also include a combination of ordinary dividends, capital gain, and return of investor capital, which may decrease an ETF's NAV and trading price over time. As a result, an investor may suffer significant losses to their investment. These Distribution Rates may be caused by unusually favorable market conditions and may not be sustainable. Such conditions may not continue to exist and there should be no expectation that this performance may be repeated in the future.
