The June 2025 distribution was $0.32. December 2025 has two entries on the same ex-date of December 16, of $0.29 and $0.33, which together came to $0.62. Distributions with ex-dates in 2025 added up to $0.94, the only complete calendar year in the table. The source gives no growth streak.

The June 2026 distribution of $0.28 was a little below the $0.32 paid in June 2025. The trailing-twelve-month figure of $0.90 combines the two December 2025 entries and the June 2026 payment. If the pattern holds, the next distribution would go ex-distribution in mid-December 2026 and be paid a few days later.
