MGM Growth Properties LLC on Friday detailed the 2021 tax treatment of its Class A common share distributions.
The company noted it made a total of four distributions last year: on Jan. 15, April 15, July 15 and Oct. 15. The total distribution was slightly more than $2.54 per share, of which $2.01 per share is taxable.
For tax year 2020, the total distribution was slightly more than $2.40 per share, of which $1.92 per share was taxable.
The total included ordinary dividends and nondividend distributions, MGM Growth Properties explained, adding the Friday release was based on preliminary work on the company’s tax filings and may be subject to adjustment.
The company advised shareholders state and local taxation of real estate investment trust distributions varies and may not be the same as the taxation under federal rules.
MGP noted it has posted a copy of IRS Form 8937 on the Tax Notifications section of its website.
