Dow pays a quarterly dividend of $0.35 per share. Its most recent payment had an ex-date of August 31, 2026 and was paid on September 11, 2026. Over the trailing twelve months, it paid $1.40 per share, a yield of about 5.0% at a share price of $27.97.
The per-share amount in the table changed in a single step with the payment that went ex-dividend on August 29, 2025. Since then, Dow has paid $0.35 five times in a row, and the rate has not changed. Four of those payments make up the trailing total. The table does not list a growth streak, and no raise appears since the change.
The timing has been very regular. Ex-dates fall near the end of February, May, August and November, usually on or close to the last business day of the month. Payment then follows about two weeks later, in mid-March, mid-June, mid-September and mid-December. Since the change, the gap between ex-date and payment has been eleven to fourteen days.
If the pattern holds, the next payment would go ex-dividend in late November 2026 and be paid around mid-December.
