ORC dividend snapshot
Variable distributionAs of Jul 10, 2026, ORC yields about 17.60%, having distributed $1.20 per share over the trailing twelve months.
Its most recent payment was $0.10 per share, which went ex-dividend on Jun 30, 2026 and paid on Jul 30, 2026; the next ex-dividend date is declared for Jul 31, 2026.
Because ORC pays a variable monthly distribution, the amount changes every period — its recent payments have ranged from $0.10 to $0.12 per share. Treat the headline yield as a record of what was paid, not a promise of future income.
As a mortgage REIT, ORC pairs an above-average yield with greater sensitivity to interest rates and to changes in book value — so set the price-growth input in the calculator above conservatively rather than assuming the yield compounds untouched.
Based on ORC’s published payment record as of Jul 10, 2026 — a description of what the dividend has done, not a rating or a forecast.
About ORC
Orchid Island Capital is a mortgage REIT that invests on a leveraged basis in agency residential mortgage-backed securities, and pays a very high monthly dividend. Mortgage REITs are highly sensitive to interest rates and MBS spreads, and both the dividend and the share price have historically been cut in adverse rate environments — the high yield carries real risk.
ORC is a mortgage reit from Orchid Island Capital that distributes monthly. Because dividend investing is about both income and the growth of that income, the calculator above lets you model three things independently for ORC: the starting yield, how fast the dividend grows each year, and how fast the share price appreciates. That separation matters most for high-yield versus dividend-growth choices, where a lower starting yield that grows quickly can overtake a higher static yield over time.
How to use the ORC calculator
- Replace the pre-filled yield with ORC’s current dividend yield from your broker or the fund’s page.
- Set your initial investment and monthly contribution.
- Estimate the dividend growth rate and price growth rate. For a mortgage reit these can differ a lot — be realistic rather than optimistic.
- Choose your dividend tax rate and whether to reinvest (DRIP), then read the projected value, dividends received, and yield on cost.
The full math, including how the money-weighted return is computed, is on the methodology page.
ORC dividend calculator FAQ
- How does this ORC dividend calculator work?
- It runs a month-by-month projection: each month it adds your contribution, pays a dividend based on the yield, optionally reinvests it (DRIP), then applies price growth. The page loads pre-filled with ORC's current yield (about 17.60% as of Jul 10, 2026); adjust the dividend-growth, price-growth, and tax assumptions to fit your own outlook.
- What yield should I use for ORC?
- As of Jul 10, 2026, ORC's dividend yield was about 17.60% ($1.20 per share over the trailing year). Yields move with the share price, so use the current figure from your broker rather than a fixed number. Enter the trailing or forward yield, whichever you prefer to model.
- How often does ORC pay dividends, and when?
- Orchid Island Capital, Inc. pays a monthly (varies) dividend; its most recent payment was $0.10 per share, ex-dividend Jun 30, 2026, with the next ex-dividend date declared for Jul 31, 2026. This calculator compounds monthly and projects annual totals, so it works the same regardless of the payment schedule — the cadence just affects when cash actually lands in your account.
- Is the ORC projection a guarantee?
- No. It is an educational projection based on the assumptions you enter, held constant. Real dividends can rise, be cut, or stop, and prices fluctuate. Use it to compare scenarios, not to predict returns, and never rely on a single calculator for an investment decision.
