The history shown is short. It holds four distributions, the first with an ex-date of December 30, 2025, so it covers less than a year and is not a long-term record. That first payment was $0.02 per share and was paid on January 8, 2026. In 2026 the fund paid $0.03 in March, $0.07 in June and $0.03 in September, so the amounts have varied from one quarter to the next. The June distribution was the largest in the table.

There are no calendar-year totals for a complete year yet, and the source shows no growth streak. The 2026 ex-dates fell on a Friday in the second half of March, June and September, with payment seven to ten days later. If the quarterly pattern holds, the next distribution would go ex-distribution in December 2026 and be paid within about two weeks.
