What the record shows

SMCY has paid weekly since 2024, with 68 distributions through the latest payment. Over the last 12 months, 52 distributions totaled $5.577 per share, equivalent to a 147.54% trailing yield.

Recent distributions moved lower: the latest four averaged $0.0597 per share, down 27.1% from the prior average of $0.082. The first annual period was short because payments began during it. The following year, SMCY distributed $18.75 per share.

Over 12 months, SMCY’s price fell 69.6%, while distributions equaled 44.9% of the price a year earlier. The approximate total return was -24.7%, as the distributions offset only part of the price decline. The high payout therefore returned capital through distributions while the security lost value through its price.

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.
