It went from $0.71 in February 2022 to $1.03 in May and August 2026, an increase of about 45%. Since February 2022, each payment has been equal to or above the one before it. Distributions with ex-dates in each calendar year added up to $2.93 in 2022, $3.71 in 2024 and $3.93 in 2025, a rise of about 6% from 2024 to 2025. No May 2023 payment is listed, so 2023 shows only three distributions. The source counts a growth streak of four years.

If the pattern holds, the next distribution would go ex-distribution in mid-November 2026 and be paid about a week later.
