The two yields above are different measurements and are not interchangeable. The forward yield annualises the last regular payment; the trailing 12-month yield counts the cash actually paid over the last 365 days. Neither is an interest rate, a bond's yield to maturity or an index effective yield, and none of those may be compared with these as like for like. See how we compute these numbers.
A yield is just a payment divided by a price, so it moves every day even when the payment does not. The forward number is an estimate of the next twelve months; the trailing number is what was actually paid over the last twelve. Ex-date is the cut-off: own the shares before it and the next payment is yours, buy on or after it and the seller keeps it.
What GL-PD is
GL-PD is a preferred series, series D — a separate class of shares issued by Globe Life Inc. (GL), not the common stock itself. Most exchange-listed US preferreds are issued at a $25 par value and pay a stated rate on that par, so the dollar payment is fixed while the market price moves with interest rates and with the issuer's credit.
Preferred shares rank ahead of the common stock and behind every lender. The issuer must pay the preferred dividend before it pays anything to common holders, but it can skip the preferred dividend entirely — a cumulative series accrues the arrears, a non-cumulative one does not. Most series carry no vote and become callable at par on a set date, which is why a preferred trading above par rarely goes much higher. Read how preferred stocks work.
The common stock of the same issuer is GL. The two securities respond to different things: the common tracks the business, the preferred tracks rates and credit.
Figures on this page are computed by Income Investing from the payment history and last price stored in our own database and the price from fmp. They describe what has been paid, not what will be paid. Yield, payout ratio, our data sources and our methodology are explained elsewhere on the site.
Payment history
Each row is one payment as recorded by our data provider, newest first. The final column compares it with the nearest payment about a year earlier.
No payment history has been recorded for GL-PD yet.
Dividends by calendar year
Calendar-year totals, bucketed by ex-dividend date: every regular dividend whose ex-dividend date fell in that year, for the last ten complete years on record. These are amounts actually paid, never a forward estimate, and they are not the issuer's own annual dividend figure.
Not enough payment history yet to build calendar-year totals for GL-PD.

These are not the best-paying securities of this kind, and no ranking is meant by the order. They are the ones whose trailing 12-month yield sits nearest to this one, in the same structure and usually the same sector, so that this security can be seen in company rather than on its own. Every figure here is backward-looking cash that has already been paid. A row that sits well away from the rest is a question to take to that security's own page, not an answer.

Every row in this table is on the same basis — cash actually paid per share over the last 365 days, divided by that security's last price — so the column can be read down. Forward estimates are deliberately not used here, because they exist for some securities and not others and a mixed column would invite a comparison that does not hold. A dash means no payment was recorded in the last 365 days, or no price is on file. Open a security to see both of its yields.
