CEMB distribution FAQ

When is CEMB's next ex-distribution date?

CEMB's next ex-distribution date is Oct 1, 2026 (in 22 days, estimated from its monthly schedule). You must own the shares before that date to receive the payment of about $0.1964 per share, expected on Oct 15, 2026.

How often does CEMB pay distributions?

CEMB pays distributions every month, 12 times a year. The most recent payment was $0.193 per share with an ex-date of Sep 1, 2026.

What is CEMB's distribution yield?

CEMB's trailing 12-month distribution yield is 5.23%, based on $2.357 per share paid over the last year and a share price of $45.03. The forward yield, using the indicated annual rate of $2.357 per share, is 5.23%.

How much does CEMB pay per share?

CEMB pays about $0.1964 per share each month, which works out to roughly $2.357 per share a year. 100 shares would collect about $235.70 a year.

Has CEMB grown or cut its distribution?

There has been no cut to a regular payment in the last 5 years. As a fund, CEMB's distributions vary with the income its holdings generate, so payouts are not designed to rise every year the way a dividend-growth stock's are.

How many shares of CEMB do I need to earn $100 a month?

At the current forward yield of 5.23%, you would need about 510 shares of CEMB (roughly $22,926 invested at today's price) to collect $1,200 a year, or $100 a month on average, before taxes. Payments arrive every month, so the monthly figure is an average.
