The rate went from $0.15 to $0.16 in 2022, then to $0.17 in 2023, $0.18 in 2024, $0.19 in 2025 and $0.20 in 2026. In percentage terms, raises eased from about 6.7% to 5.3%. Since late 2021, the quarterly rate has grown about 33%. Payments by calendar year rose from $0.63 in 2022 to $0.75 in 2025. The company has now increased its dividend for five consecutive years.
Ex-dates fall in February, May, August and November, with payment about two weeks later. If the pattern holds, the next payment would go ex-dividend in mid-November 2026 and be paid in late November or early December. Past raises have come with the May payment.
