The table lists seven annual payments, and the amount has varied from year to year rather than following a steady step pattern. It was $0.49 in 2020, $0.58 in 2021, $0.71 in 2022, $0.62 in 2023, $0.63 in 2024, $0.79 in 2025 and $0.61 in 2026. Across that span, the lowest payment was $0.49 and the highest was $0.79. The 2026 payment was about 23% below the 2025 amount, and close to the 2023 and 2024 levels. The source does not list a growth streak.
The timing has been more regular than the amount. Since 2021, every payment has gone ex-dividend in mid to late May and been paid in late May or early June; only the 2020 payment fell in late August. If the pattern holds, the next payment would go ex-dividend in May 2027 and be paid in early June.
