What the record shows
SDTY has paid weekly since payments began in 2025, making 85 distributions. Over the last 12 months, 52 payments totaled $11.185 per share and produced a 27.42% trailing yield.
The latest payment was $0.148 per share, 21.3% lower than the previous payment. The recent average declined 7.3%, although higher payments have outnumbered lower payments across SDTY’s history. The $9.766 total across 46 distributions in the first year reflects the midyear start, so it does not provide a comparable annual base for assessing changes in yearly distributions.
Over the last 12 months, SDTY’s price fell 10.6%, offsetting part of the income returned through distributions. Distributions equaled 24.5% of the price a year earlier, leaving an approximate total return of 13.9% after the price decline.

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.
