Lument Finance Trust Suspends Quarterly Dividend To Preserve Capital And Financial Flexibility

Lument Finance Trust, Inc. (NYSE: LFT) has suspended its quarterly dividend, effective from the third quarter of 2026, to preserve capital and maintain financial flexibility. The decision comes as the company expects to meet its REIT taxable income distribution requirements for the 2026 calendar year. In the first half of 2026, LFT paid two regular dividends totaling $0.08 per share (pre-reverse split), which is anticipated to exceed its REIT taxable income for the entire year.
