Empire State Realty pays a quarterly dividend of $0.04 per share. Its most recent payment had an ex-date of September 15, 2026 and was paid on September 30, 2026. The source gives a trailing-twelve-month total of $0.14 per share, a yield of 3.16% at a share price of $4.43.
The record is flat. All 20 payments in the table, from December 2021 to September 2026, are shown at $0.04 per share, with no raise in that span. The source does not list a growth streak. The timing is just as steady. Ex-dates fall in mid-March, mid-June, mid-September and mid-December, usually between the 13th and the 17th of the month, and each payment arrives at the end of that same month, on or near the last business day.
If the pattern holds, the next payment would go ex-dividend in mid-December 2026 and be paid around December 31. Over the period shown, every quarterly payment has come at the same $0.04 rate, so the table gives no sign of which payment a change would land on.
