The record shows a steady yearly pattern. SBA has raised its dividend once a year, each time with the first payment of the year, which goes ex-dividend in March. The rate went from $0.58 to $0.71 in 2022, then to $0.85 in 2023, $0.98 in 2024, $1.11 in 2025 and $1.25 in 2026. Each raise was 13 or 14 cents. In percentage terms, the raises have shrunk as the rate grew, from about 22% in 2022 to about 13% in 2026. Since late 2021, the quarterly rate has more than doubled, up about 116%. Payments by calendar year rose from $2.84 in 2022 to $4.44 in 2025. The company has now increased its dividend for five consecutive years.

If the pattern holds, the next payment would go ex-dividend in mid-November 2026 and be paid in mid-December. Past raises have come with the March payment that follows.
