Stellus Capital pays a monthly dividend, currently $0.08 per share. Its most recent payment had an [ex-date](/instructions/learning/ex-dividend-date) of September 30, 2026 and is payable on October 15, 2026. The source puts the trailing twelve-month total at $1.33 per share, a [yield](/instructions/learning/dividend-yield) of 18.21% at a share price of $7.30.

The monthly amount has been lowered twice in the period shown. From February 2025 through December 2025, every payment was $0.13 per share. The payments with ex-dates from January to June 2026 were $0.11, about 15% less. Starting with the July 2026 ex-date, the amount has been $0.08, about 27% below the $0.11 rate and about 38% below the earlier $0.13. The table holds the last 20 payments, so it begins in February 2025 and does not show a full earlier year. The source gives no growth streak.

The schedule itself has been steady. Ex-dates fall on the last business day of each month, and payment follows around the 15th of the next month. If that pattern holds, the next payment would go ex-dividend at the end of October 2026 and be paid around mid-November.
