The raises were one or two cents, or roughly 5.9% to 11.1%. Since March 2022, the quarterly rate has grown about 33%. Payments by calendar year rose from $0.60 in 2022 to $0.72 in 2025. The source gives a growth streak of three years.
If the pattern holds, the next payment would go ex-dividend in mid-December 2026 and be paid on January 15, 2027. Past raises have come with the March payment, not the December one.
