Realty Income has paid a regular monthly dividend without interruption for 26 years, a record few publicly traded real estate investment trusts can match. Net lease investors prize that predictability above almost everything else.

The most recent payout represents a 0.7% increase versus the year-ago amount, a modest but deliberate step up in the dividend. For income-focused investors, a rising payout on top of an already elevated yield compounds the case for the stock.
The ex-dividend date for this distribution is October 30, 2026. Investors who do not hold shares before that date are locked out of this month's payout and must wait a full additional month before the next opportunity to collect.
