Key Metrics
Current Yield
6.61%
At the Oct 20, 2026 price
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
$1.2396
Declared Jul 29, 2026
The latest declared regular dividend scaled to a full year by how often it's paid (for semi-annual payers, the latest two payments), adjusted for stock splits. A $0.25 quarterly dividend annualizes to $1.00. Special dividends are excluded.Frequency
Q Quarterly
How often the dividend is paid, read from the dates of recent payments: Q = quarterly (4x a year), M = monthly, S = semi-annual, A = annual.RSI (14)

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

The lowest and highest price over the past year, showing where today's price sits in its recent range.Payout Ratio (TTM)
n/a
12 months to Jun 30, 2026 (Q2 FY2026)
The share of earnings paid out as dividends over the trailing twelve months (TTM): dividends paid divided by net income across the company's four most recent reported quarters, dated by the latest quarter end. A fiscal-year tag such as FY2025 means only annual figures were available. Lower leaves more cushion; above 100% means paying out more than the company earned. It shows n/a for funds and when net income over the period was negative; for REITs and BDCs it is marked EPS-based, since they are judged on FFO/AFFO or net investment income instead.Years Paying

Quote & Key Data
Dividend Growth
Why the Yield Moved (90 Days)
TSLTF's dividend yield fell from 6.62% to 6.61% over the past ~90 days (-0.01 pp). Of that move, -0.03 pp came from changes in the dividend rate and +0.02 pp from the share price ($18.82 on Jul 22, 2026 → $18.77 on Oct 20, 2026). A yield that rises because the price fell is not an improvement in the payout itself.
Yield vs Its Own History
Across 274 daily observations over the past 13 months (through Oct 15, 2026), TSLTF's current yield is higher than approximately 25% of them. Our stored price history for TSLTF covers the past 13 months; 3- and 5-year averages are not yet computable from it and are deliberately not shown.
