As a member of the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats Index, it joins companies like Coca-Cola, Johnson & Johnson, and PepsiCo in preserving a long-standing dividend record. The realtor will release its fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 results on February 24, 2026, following the close of the New York Stock Exchange. An investor conference call is planned for the same day at 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time. Topics will include 2025 transactions, occupancy and leasing trends, European growth, and the outlook for 2026. February will be a crucial month for investors, with the dividend payment on the 13th and the earnings report and call on the 24th.

The upcoming dividend signifies another milestone in Realty Income's uninterrupted payout streak. Investors will also gain insights into the company's financial performance and future plans during the February earnings call.
