What the numbers mean

NOG pays out roughly 462% of its earnings as dividends. That is a high payout ratio. The dividend is consuming most of reported earnings, which is normal for REITs and some funds but a caution flag elsewhere.

Like most US dividend payers, NOG distributes quarterly, so a full year of ownership produces four payments.

Whether these payments are taxed at the lower qualified rate or as ordinary income depends on how long you hold the shares and what kind of company pays them. See the qualified vs. ordinary dividend rules.
