Community Healthcare Trust cuts dividend 31% to $0.33; Q2 net income $2.4 million
Community Healthcare Trust reported second-quarter 2026 net income of $2.4 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $12.6 million a year earlier. Its board also cut the quarterly common dividend by 31% to $0.33 per share, which the company says lowers its AFFO payout ratio to about 60% and frees capital to fund growth, a change that reduces income for dividend-focused shareholders.
