Capital Southwest pays a monthly dividend. Three payments are already declared: $0.19 per share with an ex-date of October 15, 2026, $0.19 with an ex-date of November 13, and $0.25 with an ex-date of December 15, 2026, payable on December 31. The source gives a trailing twelve-month total of $2.56 per share, a yield of 10.82% at a share price of $23.67.

The table holds 20 payments starting in September 2025, so it is a short record. The regular monthly amount has been $0.19 throughout. Four times, on the ex-dates in December 2025 and in March, June and September 2026, a second payment of $0.06 shared the ex-date with the regular one, once each quarter. The declared December 2026 payment of $0.25 is larger than any single monthly payment shown. Ex-dates fall around the middle of the month, and payment comes at the end of the same month.

The source does not give a growth streak. If the monthly pattern holds, the payment after the declared ones would go ex-dividend in mid-January 2027 and be paid at the end of that month.
