Royce Micro-Cap Trust pays a quarterly distribution whose amount varies. Its most recent payment, $0.23 per share, had an ex-date of September 11, 2026 and was paid on September 29, 2026. Over the trailing twelve months, it paid $0.87 per share, a yield of 6.38% at a share price of $13.63.
The amounts move up and down rather than following a set rate. Over the last four payments they were $0.24, $0.19, $0.21 and $0.23. The December payment has often been the largest of the year, at $0.28 in 2021 and 2022 and $0.24 in 2025. Payments by calendar year were $0.84 in 2021, $0.95 in 2022 and $0.79 in 2025. The record is irregular: the table shows no payments from December 2022 until June 2024, and only three in 2024, so those years cannot be compared directly. The source gives no growth streak.
Ex-dates fall around the 9th to 13th of March, June, September and December, and payment follows about two weeks later. If the pattern holds, the next payment would go ex-dividend around mid-December 2026 and be paid before the end of that month.
