A $2.00 distribution followed with an ex-date of November 21, 2025, and a $1.37 one with an ex-date of December 23, 2025. Both were far above any payment since.
Monthly distributions began in January 2026. The first two were $0.50, then three were $0.40, two were $0.28, and the two most recent were $0.35. The nine payments in 2026 so far added up to $3.46, about $0.38 a month on average. Ex-dates fall in the last week of the month, with payment three to eight days later. If the monthly pattern holds, the next distribution would go ex-distribution in late October 2026 and be paid around the end of the month.
