The record shown is short. The table holds only two distributions, so it does not show a long-term pattern. The earlier one had an ex-date of June 18, 2026, was paid on June 23, 2026 and came to $0.25 per share. The September distribution was $0.02 higher. In both cases the ex-date fell in the second half of the last month of the quarter, and payment followed four to five days later. With no complete calendar year in the table, there are no annual totals to compare, and the source shows no growth streak.

If the quarterly pattern holds, the next distribution would go ex-distribution in the second half of December 2026 and be paid a few days later.
