December 2024 had two payments on the same ex-date, $0.12 and an unusually large $0.62, the biggest in the table. In 2025 there were payments in March and June, then monthly payments from August on, with no July ex-date listed.

The monthly amounts have moved in steps. The six payments from August 2025 to January 2026 were each $0.10. The four from February to May 2026 were each $0.15, and the four from June to September 2026 were each $0.13. Ex-dates fall in the last week or so of the month, with payment at month-end. The source shows no growth streak. If the pattern holds, the next distribution would go ex-distribution in late October 2026 and be paid at the end of the month.
