$MPW (+0.17%) Last night, the dividend for the current quarter. 0,08$ for each share held on September 9. This is based on the bank's covenants, which were renegotiated for the further course of the steward bankruptcy. Anyone following this process could already smell the $0.08, as there was friction between the debtors, MPW and Steward this week, which had already been brewing. Yesterday, among other things, there was an emergency meeting of the insolvency court to calm the waters. With regard to the dividend, it should be noted that no adjustment
of the cash allocation strategy has been announced. The final dividend of the year therefore depends on the balance sheet and may be related to a non-cash component if the REIT requirement is not met by a .08 dividend. In the future, the amount of the cash component will continue to depend on the covenants. As soon as these are no longer necessary for Steward, the dividend should return to the generously covered 0.15 of the last quarters.
