The record shows a steady annual rhythm. Academy has raised its dividend once a year, each time with the payment that goes ex-dividend in March. The rate went from $0.08 to $0.09 in 2023, then to $0.11 in 2024, $0.13 in 2025 and $0.15 in 2026. The raises were one or two cents, or roughly 12.5% to 22.2%. Since early 2022, the quarterly rate has grown 87.5%. Payments by calendar year rose from $0.32 in 2022 to $0.36 in 2023, $0.44 in 2024 and $0.52 in 2025, about 62.5% over that span. The source gives a growth streak of three years.

Payment usually comes about four weeks after the ex-date. If the pattern holds, the next payment would go ex-dividend in mid-December 2026 and be paid in mid-January 2027. Past raises have come with the March payment, not the December one.
