OIH distribution FAQ
When is OIH's next ex-distribution date?
OIH's next ex-distribution date is Dec 21, 2026 (in 103 days, estimated from its annual schedule). You must own the shares before that date to receive the payment of about $4.869 per share, expected on Jan 4, 2027.
How often does OIH pay distributions?
OIH pays distributions once a year, 1 times a year. The most recent payment was $4.869 per share with an ex-date of Dec 22, 2025.
What is OIH's distribution yield?
OIH's trailing 12-month distribution yield is 1.14%, based on $4.869 per share paid over the last year and a share price of $427.53. The forward yield, using the indicated annual rate of $4.869 per share, is 1.14%.
How much does OIH pay per share?
OIH pays about $4.869 per share each year, which works out to roughly $4.869 per share a year. 100 shares would collect about $486.90 a year.
Has OIH grown or cut its distribution?
Over the last 5 years the regular payout has grown at 20.8% a year (-10.5% over the last year). There has been no cut to a regular payment in the last 5 years. As a fund, OIH'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 OIH do I need to earn $100 a month?
At the current forward yield of 1.14%, you would need about 247 shares of OIH (roughly $105,368 invested at today's price) to collect $1,200 a year, or $100 a month on average, before taxes. Payments arrive once a year, so the monthly figure is an average.
