Key Metrics

Current Yield

2.70%

The annual dividend as a percentage of the share price. A 3% yield is about $3 of dividends a year for every $100 invested at today's price.

Annualized Dividend

$5.0000

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

54.3

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)

50

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

$165.15 – $223.75

The lowest and highest price over the past year — shows where today's price sits in its recent range.

Payout Ratio

45.46% (EPS-based)

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

6

How many years of payments we have on record. This can understate very long histories where our data doesn't reach far enough back.

Price / Book

-4.27

Price-to-book ratio: share price divided by book value per share. A rough valuation gauge, most useful for asset-heavy sectors like REITs, banks and insurers.

S.A.F.E. Dividend Read

S.A.F.E. is our quick durability read on a dividend — the same four-check test used across the screener and our ranked lists. Solid: the payout is well covered and the overall model profile is strong. Accelerating: the dividend has grown over time, not stalled. Flawless: an unbroken record with no cuts or suspensions. Enduring: a long enough paying history to weather a cycle. All four met earns the S.A.F.E. flag.
S Solid
Below the Solid check (model rank 70+ and yield 2%+): rank 54/100, yield 2.70%.
A Accelerating
6 consecutive years of dividend increases.
F Flawless
No dividend cut in the available payment record.
E Enduring
6 year(s) of payments on record, under the 20 this check looks for.

Why the Yield Moved (90 Days)

SBAC's dividend yield rose from 2.55% to 2.70% over the past ~90 days (+0.14 pp). Of that move, +0.00 pp came from changes in the dividend rate and +0.14 pp from the share price ($195.73 → $185.47). A yield that rises because the price fell is not an improvement in the payout itself.
