Strategy’s preferred stockholders just voted to get paid more often. Not more money, mind you, just more frequently.
During the company’s 2026 Annual Meeting on June 8, shareholders of Strategy’s Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Stretch Preferred Stock, ticker STRC, approved a transition from monthly to semi-monthly dividend payments. The first record date under the new schedule lands on June 30, with the initial payout slated for July 15, pending board declaration.
What the new schedule actually looks like
Record dates will now fall on the 15th and the last day of each month. That means STRC holders get two smaller checks instead of one larger one.
The annualized dividend rate stays put at 11.50%, still variable and adjusted monthly to help keep STRC trading near its $100 par value. Nothing changes about how much investors earn over a year.
