BUI has increased its payment rate for 1 consecutive complete year.

Over the last five complete years the BUI payment rate compounded at +2.4% a year, and +1.2% a year over the last ten. That is what the payments actually did; it is not a forecast.

Across 15 years of recorded history, BUI's payment rate has never fallen materially from one complete year to the next.

BUI dividends by year

How this growth is measured

Year-over-year growth here compares each year's median payment with the year before, not the calendar-year total. Ex-dividend dates drift, so a quarterly payer can book five ex-dates in one calendar year and four in the next. Comparing raw yearly totals would show a phantom cut of around 25% in a year where the company did nothing but pay slightly earlier. Using the median payment removes that distortion, and also ignores one-off special dividends.

Years marked “timing” booked a different number of payments than BUI's usual cadence, so their total is not directly comparable with neighbouring years.
