## Dividend summary

| Metric | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Frequency | quarterly |
| Trailing 12 months | $3.90 |
| Forward yield | 8.24% |
| Growth streak | — |

CNA Financial pays a quarterly dividend of $0.48 per share. Its most recent payment had an ex-date of August 17, 2026 and was paid on September 3, 2026. Over the trailing twelve months, it paid $3.90 per share, a yield of about 8.43% at a share price of $46.27. That figure includes one unusually large payment.

The regular rate follows a steady annual rhythm. CNA has raised it once a year, each time with the payment that goes ex-dividend in February. The rate went from $0.40 to $0.42 in 2023, then to $0.44 in 2024, $0.46 in 2025 and $0.48 in 2026. Each raise was two cents, or about 4.3% to 5.0%, and the rate is 20% higher than in late 2022. On the same February ex-date, the table also shows a much larger extra payment: $1.20 per share in 2023 and $2.00 in 2024, 2025 and 2026. Leaving those out, regular payments by calendar year were $1.68 in 2023, $1.76 in 2024 and $1.84 in 2025.

If the pattern holds, the next payment would go ex-dividend in mid-November 2026 and be paid in early December. Both the raises and the extra payments have come with the February ex-date.
