Main Street Capital Dividend Increase

Main Street Capital (MAIN) increased its monthly dividend by 2.08%, from 24.5¢ to 25¢ per share.

The dividend will be paid on 15 January 2025 to shareholders of record on 8 January 2025. The ex-dividend date is 8 January 2025.

MAIN's contribution to DivGro's projected annual dividend income will increase by $12 to $600.

I own 200 shares of MAIN at an average cost basis of $18.46 per share. Following this increase, my yield on cost is 16.25%. (MAIN's forward yield is 5.77% at $52.00 per share). 

Since I opened my MAIN position in March 2010, the stock has produced total returns of 356% (13.7% annualized), including $6,441 in dividend income. 

MAIN became DivGro's sixth Home Run stock in September 2016, when the stock doubled my original capital outlay.
