The record shown is steady. The table lists 20 monthly payments with ex-dates from March 2025 to October 2026, and each one is $0.07 per share. None of them shows a change in the amount, so the table holds no raise history. Ex-dates usually fall around the middle of the month, between the 14th and the 17th. Payment follows about two weeks later, at or near the end of the same month.

If the monthly pattern holds, the payment after the declared October one would go ex-dividend in mid-November 2026 and be paid at the end of November. The payments after that would follow the same mid-month and month-end rhythm.
