The amount changes noticeably from quarter to quarter. The last four distributions ranged from $0.36 to $0.62, the high being December 2025, which is also the largest in the table. The lowest was $0.16 in March 2022. No September 2023 distribution is listed, so that year is incomplete. Distributions with ex-dates in each calendar year added up to $0.73 in 2022, $1.63 in 2024 and $1.83 in 2025. That is a rise of about 151% from 2022 to 2025, including about 12% in the last year. The three distributions so far in 2026 total $1.25, compared with $1.21 for the first three of 2025. The source counts a growth streak of two consecutive calendar years.

Ex-dates fall in the second half of March, June, September and December, with payment two to six days later. If the pattern holds, the next distribution would go ex-distribution in mid-to-late December 2026.
