The record in the table is short, with ten payments starting in May 2024. Within it, the rate has risen once a year, each time with the payment that goes ex-dividend in November. It went from $0.44 to $0.50 in November 2024, about 13.6%, and then to $0.56 in November 2025, about 12%. Over that period, the quarterly rate grew about 27%. Payments in calendar 2025, the only full year in the table, totaled $2.06. The source shows no growth streak, so two raises are all the record can show.
Ex-dates fall in early to mid February, May, August and November, with payment one to three weeks later. If the pattern holds, the next payment would go ex-dividend in early November 2026 and be paid in mid to late November. Both raises in the table came with the November payment.
