DALLAS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Texas Pacific Land Trust (NYSE: TPL) announced today that its Trustees have declared a cash dividend of $10.00 per sub-share, an increase of $8.25 over the cash dividend paid in 2019, payable March 16, 2020 to sub-shareholders of record at the close of business on March 9, 2020. This is the 17th consecutive year that the regular dividend has increased. Additionally, the Trustees declared a special dividend of $6.00 per sub-share, an increase of $1.75 over the special dividend paid in 2019, payable March 16, 2020 to sub-shareholders of record at the close of business on March 9, 2020.

Does $10/sub share (regular dividend raised 5.7x) set you up for a $1/share div post split?  Hard to take that regular div bar down.  ~$77MM/year will now no longer be used towards repurchases.
