They won't be establishing a dividend payout schedule for a year out. Theirs is a variable payout rate based on net revenues after accounting for numerous factors aimed at minimizing disruptive issues. It is possible the next quarterly payout following the one later this month could be higher than the current $1.23 or it could even drop to 45 cents. And there will have to be an accounting for the month of downtime (last month's scheduled shut-down). Still, if we average the sum of three payouts thus far, nobody could argue against the record, imo.
