What the record shows

JAAA has paid monthly since distributions began in 2020, while its recent payment trend has moved higher. Over the last 12 months, distributions totaled $2.654 per share for a 5.26% trailing yield. The recent average was 3.2% higher at $0.2053 per share.

Annual distributions were higher in 2021 and again in 2022. In 2023, the average per payment was $0.2539, higher than $0.1138 a year earlier. That year’s annual change reflected an ex-date falling into a neighboring year, not a change in the rate. The annual total was higher again the following year, then lower in the latest full year.

Over 12 months, JAAA’s price declined 0.6%, while distributions equaled 5.2% of the price a year earlier, producing an approximate total return of 4.6%.

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.
