What the record shows
IWMI has paid monthly since 2024, totaling 29 distributions. Over the last 12 months, it distributed $7.241 per share for a trailing yield of 14.96%. The latest payment was $0.573 per share and was lower than the previous payment. Recent distributions also averaged lower than the preceding group, indicating a modest downward turn in the latest sequence.
Because payments began during 2024, its $4.297 total covers only a short opening year and is not comparable with a full year. In 2025, IWMI distributed $6.842 through 12 monthly payments. The longer payment sequence has been mixed, with higher payments occurring slightly more often than lower ones.
Over 12 months, IWMI’s price was unchanged at 0%, while distributions equaled 15% of the price a year earlier. The approximate total return was therefore 15%. The flat price means the distributions were not offset by a falling share price over the period.

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.
