At today’s rate of $0.184 twice a year and the last close of $93.00, this is what FLTW pays before taxes, if the rate stays where it is:
| You hold | Each payment | Per month (avg) | Per year |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 share | $0.184 | $0.03 | $0.37 |
| 100 shares | $18.40 | $3.07 | $36.80 |
| $10,000 invested (107.5 shares) | $19.78 | $3.30 | $39.57 |
| 16,305 shares ($500/mo) | $3,000.12 | $500.02 | $6,000.24 |
| 32,609 shares ($1,000/mo) | $6,000.06 | $1,000.01 | $12,000.11 |
With DRIP on, every payment buys more shares instead of landing as cash. 100 FLTW shares reinvest into 0.20 new shares each payment, about 0.4 new shares a year at today’s price and rate, and each new share collects the next payment too. To DRIP one whole new share every payment you need about 506 shares. A rising payout speeds that up; a falling share price buys more shares per payment, but each is worth less.

FLTW Dividend Yield Today vs Its 5-Year Range
- FLTW yields 0.40% today, at the Nov 12, 2026 close of $93.00.
- Its own 7-year median is 0.89%, so today’s yield is below its usual level.
- No steady norm: a 0.40% yield is too small to say much about the price. So this reads today’s yield against its own 7-year history as it is.
Where today ranks in its own history is in the paid report
How it works. Each month-end over the last 7 years gives one yield: the regular payment then, times payments a year, over that day’s close. Specials are left out. 50 means today’s yield sits right at its usual level. A lower score means the yield is below its usual level, so the price is high against the payout. A higher score means the yield is above its usual level. On price alone a payer stays between 15 and 85. Steady raisers get a few points back. It reads the past, not the future.
