What the record shows
SMCY’s distribution record began in 2024 and now follows a weekly schedule. It has made 64 distributions. Over the last 12 months, 51 distributions totaled $6.649 per share, equal to a 119.8% trailing yield.
The latest distribution was $0.082 per share, 10.8% higher than the previous payment. The recent average of $0.082 was below the prior average of $0.0892, a decrease of 8.1%. Across the full record, lower payments have occurred more often than higher payments.
In 2025, annual distributions totaled $18.75 per share across 21 payments. The first year was short only because distributions began during it, so its annual total is not comparable with the following year. Over 12 months, distributions equaled 40.9% of the price a year earlier, while SMCY’s price fell 65.9%. The approximate total return was -25%, as the distributions did not offset 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.
