Western Asset Intermediate Muni Fund Inc. announced a USD 0.04 per-share dividend for SBI stock, with an ex-dividend date of October 23, 2026 and payment scheduled for October 30, 2026. GuruFocus reported the distribution on September 23, 2026.
Dividend dates set the near-term focus
The USD 0.04 payment is the central event for income-oriented holders because the October 23 ex-dividend date determines eligibility for this distribution. The cash payment is scheduled for October 30, 2026, creating a seven-day interval between the ex-date and the payment date.
The distribution is part of the fund's income profile. GuruFocus describes Western Asset Intermediate Municipal Fund as a diversified, closed-end management investment company seeking current income exempt from federal income taxes.
What does the dividend calendar show?
The calendar gives investors two distinct reference points: October 23, 2026 for the ex-dividend date and October 30, 2026 for the cash payment. That timing separates the market date from the settlement of the distribution and makes the fund's income structure easier to track.
Fund profile and valuation
The fund is managed by Western Asset Management Company, which is part of Franklin Resources, and its shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange under ticker SBI, according to GuruFocus. A regulatory filing dated October 5, 2026 identifies Western Asset Intermediate Muni Fund Inc. as the filer. The SEC filing provides the latest regulatory reference for the fund.
