The three payments made so far in 2026 total $1.38.
The timing has been just as regular. Ex-dates fall in February, May, August and November, and payment usually follows in the middle of the next month: March, June, September and December.

If the pattern holds, the next payment would go ex-dividend in mid-November 2026 and be paid around mid-December.
