DividendsDividend Analysis Overview
Yield, growth, payout, free cash flow coverage, recent payment history, and AIQ Dividend context stay together.
Next announced event
$0.33
GBDC dividend calendar data is shown separately from historical payments so announced dates do not get blended into completed income history.
Dividend growth is temporarily withheld because recent rows show an extreme change that needs data review. Raw vendor values stay visible in the history table; TTM, growth, yield, and calculator context use the guarded analysis value.
Latest dividend record
Jun 15, 2026
Review the latest dividend, yield, available trailing-year income, and coverage context before treating income as durable.
AIQ Dividend bridge
Margins, returns, leverage, and cash conversion support dividend durability.
Yield is more useful when valuation context is not stretched.
Lower drawdown and balance-sheet risk can improve income dependability.
Recent Dividend History
Recent per-share dividends show payment cadence. Trailing-year and growth reads are shown only when the available rows cover a complete comparable window.
Dividend reliability

Recent dividend payments are summarized as cadence and coverage signals. Exact rows remain below for auditability.

Dividend yield is only the starting point. Pair the current distribution with payout ratio, free cash flow coverage, balance-sheet risk, and the history of actual payments before treating income as durable.
A higher yield is more useful when earnings and free cash flow cover the distribution. A yield caused by a falling stock price can be a warning, not a bargain.
Stable or rising payments can indicate capital return discipline. Flat, skipped, or missing payments should be read with earnings and cash flow before drawing conclusions.
A low payout ratio can leave room for growth; a high payout ratio can indicate limited cushion. Cyclical companies need more room than stable defensive businesses.
