Distributions
On January 25, 2022, the board of directors (the “Board”) of CIM Real Estate Finance Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) authorized distributions for the months of January, February and March of 2022 of $0.0305 per share of the Company’s common stock to the holders of record as of the record date for each monthly distribution. The record date for the January distribution is January 28, 2022, the record date for the February distribution is February 24, 2022, and the record date for March is March 29, 2022. This distribution will be paid in cash or reinvested in shares of the Company’s common stock for stockholders participating in the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan. This distribution rate equates to an approximate 5.1% annualized yield based on the March 31, 2021 midpoint NAV per share. The rate increase from $0.0303, which had been the Company’s monthly distribution rate since September 2020, to $0.0305 for the months of January, February and March of 2022, reflects the most recent equivalent annualized rate, adjusted for the exchange ratio, that was paid by CIM Income NAV, Inc. (“CINAV”) to its shareholders prior to the consummation of the merger between the Company and CINAV.
