The table starts in 2022, when each quarterly payment was $0.28. In 2023 the rate was $0.23. Since then, Fortune Brands has raised its dividend once a year, each time with the payment that goes ex-dividend in February. The rate went to $0.24 in 2024, $0.25 in 2025 and $0.26 in 2026. Each raise was one cent, or roughly 4.0% to 4.4%. Payments by calendar year rose from $0.92 in 2023 to $0.96 in 2024 and $1.00 in 2025. The company has increased its dividend for two consecutive calendar years.
If the pattern holds, the payment after the declared one would go ex-dividend in late February 2027 and be paid in mid-March. That is the payment where recent raises have appeared.
