What the record shows
HDV’s recent distributions are running well below the prior pace. HDV has made 65 monthly distributions since 2011. Over the past year, six payments totaled $0.8522 per share, producing a 3.01% trailing yield.
Recent distributions averaged $0.0827 per share, down 59% from the prior average of $0.2014. The latest distribution was $0.056 per share, 46.7% lower than the previous payment. Over the longer recent span, more payments were lower than their predecessors than higher.
Changes in recent annual totals reflect ex-dates falling into a neighboring year rather than changes in the distribution rate, because each year’s payment count differs from usual. Average per payment fell initially, then rose each year before easing from $0.2057 to $0.1956 in the latest full year. Over the past year, HDV’s price gained 16.7%, while distributions equaled 3.5% of the price a year earlier. The approximate total return was 20.2%, so the distributions accompanied a rising price rather than offsetting price erosion.

A high distribution rate paired with a falling price means part of the payout came back out of the share price. Total return adds distributions received to the price change; it ignores reinvestment and taxes.

Amounts are per share and adjusted for stock splits, so early payments appear smaller than the cash paid at the time; a year with an extra or missing ex-date shows as a jump in the annual table. Change compares each regular payment with the previous regular one; payments of at least 2.5 times the recent median are treated as specials.
