Ex-dates fall in June and December, with payment three to seven days later. From 2021 through 2025, the June distribution was larger than the December one each year. The table lists no December 2020 distribution, so 2020 has a single payment of $0.98. In the table, payments ranged from $0.50 in December 2022 to $1.73 in December 2019. Distributions with ex-dates in each calendar year added up to $1.90 in 2021, $1.61 in 2022, $2.13 in 2023, $2.29 in 2024 and $2.76 in 2025. That is a rise of about 30% from 2023 to 2025. The source counts a growth streak of three consecutive calendar years.
The June 2026 distribution of $1.68 was about 6% above the $1.59 paid in June 2025. If the pattern holds, the next distribution would go ex-distribution in mid-December 2026 and be paid a few days later.
