What would PSA be worth after 10 years with dividends reinvested?

Reinvesting every dividend and assuming the payment and share price both stay flat, $10,000 in PSA would grow to about $15,137 after 10 years, against $14,167 if the income were taken as cash. That deliberately assumes no dividend growth — a real holding may do better or considerably worse.

Is PSA's dividend guaranteed?

What makes up PSA's 4.17% yield

PSA paid $12.00 per share over the last twelve months against a share price of $287.97, which is where the 4.17% comes from. Special and one-off distributions are excluded from that figure — they do not recur, and including them would overstate every projection below.

A yield close to the market median is the least informative figure on this page — it is what most payers look like. What separates PSA from the rest of that group is the schedule it pays on, the record behind the payment and what funds it, covered below.

REITs are required to distribute the large majority of their taxable income to keep their tax status, which is why the yield is high by construction rather than by choice. It also means the payout ratio reads badly against accounting earnings: depreciation charges on property push reported earnings well below the cash actually collected, so the dividend is judged against funds from operations instead.

When PSA pays, and what that changes

PSA pays quarterly, the standard schedule for US-listed payers, so the "per payment" column is one quarter of the annual figure and the "monthly average" column is a smoothed figure rather than a description of when cash arrives — nothing is paid in eight months of the year.

Each payment has an ex-dividend date, and it is the date that governs entitlement: shares bought on or after it do not carry that payment. PSA's full schedule and payment history are on its dividend page.

Is PSA's dividend covered by earnings?

PSA's payout ratio of 1.41 exceeds reported earnings, which is normal rather than alarming for a REIT: depreciation on property is a large non-cash charge that pushes accounting earnings well below the cash the business collects. The ratio is close to meaningless here, and the dividend is judged against funds from operations instead.

The figures hold the dividend flat. No multi-year record of consecutive increases is on file for PSA, so treat the projection as arithmetic on today's payment rather than as an expectation about future ones.
