What the record shows
What the record shows: HOOY has paid weekly since distributions began in 2025, making 60 payments through the latest declared distribution. Over the past year, 52 distributions totaled $25.634 per share, equal to a trailing yield of 125.9%.
The recent average was $0.2895 per payment, 35.4% below the prior average of $0.448, showing that distributions have moved lower in the latest stretch. In 2025, distributions began midyear and totaled $39.305 per share, so that partial year does not establish a year-over-year direction.
Over 12 months, HOOY’s price fell 69.5%. Distributions equaled 38.4% of the price a year earlier, leaving an approximate total return of -31.1%. The distributions offset only part of the price decline, with the remainder reflected in the negative total return.

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.
