$2.4800
The most recent payment scaled to a full year by how often it's paid. A $0.25 quarterly dividend annualizes to $1.00.Frequency
Q Quarterly
How often the dividend is paid: Q = quarterly (4x a year), M = monthly, S = semi-annual, A = annual.Rank Score
64.2
Our 0-100 house score blending yield, payout safety, growth and momentum. Higher means a stronger profile on those factors in our model — a research score, not advice or a recommendation to buy.RSI (14)
51
Relative Strength Index (0-100), a price-momentum gauge. Above 70 is often called 'overbought', below 30 'oversold'. A technical signal, not a dividend metric.52-Week Range
$38.25 – $42.75
The lowest and highest price over the past year — shows where today's price sits in its recent range.Payout Ratio
64.74%
The share of GAAP earnings paid out as dividends. Lower leaves more cushion; above 100% means paying out more than the company earns. It shows n/a for BDCs, REITs and funds, which pay out of cash flow / net investment income rather than GAAP earnings, so this ratio doesn't apply.Years Paying

Why the Yield Moved (90 Days)
CNTHN's dividend yield rose from 6.05% to 6.42% over the past ~90 days (+0.38 pp). Of that move, +0.00 pp came from changes in the dividend rate and +0.38 pp from the share price ($41.00 → $38.60). A yield that rises because the price fell is not an improvement in the payout itself.
