Is OXLC a good dividend stock?

What the data shows. These are observations, not recommendations — see the disclaimer at the foot of the page.

  • Yield is far above the marketAt 40.27%, the yield is more than three times the median of 2.92% across US dividend payers. A yield rises when a share price falls, so an unusually high figure often reflects what the market expects rather than what management has promised.
  • Earnings are negativeA payout ratio of -0.77 means the company is paying a dividend while reporting a loss. That can be funded from cash or borrowing for a time, but not from profits.
  • Dividend has been cut 3 timesAcross 15 complete years, the annual total fell in 2017, 2020, 2021. The most recent reduction was in 2021.
  • Raised for 4 consecutive yearsDerived from split-adjusted payment history and approximate; treat it as a relative signal rather than a certified record.
  • Pays monthlyPayments arrive twelve times a year rather than the usual four, which suits income being drawn rather than reinvested.
