It then held at $0.40 for ten payments before moving to $0.41 with the payment that went ex-dividend in September 2024. It has stayed there since. Payments by calendar year were $1.60 in 2022 and 2023, $1.62 in 2024 and $1.64 in 2025. The source states a growth streak of five years, although the rounded amounts show only these two small steps.
