## Dividend summary

| Growth streak | — |

Kennametal pays a quarterly dividend of $0.20 per share. Its most recent payment had an ex-date of August 11, 2026 and was paid on August 25, 2026. Over the trailing twelve months, it paid $0.80 per share, a yield of about 2.4% at a share price of $33.34.

The rate has not changed over the whole table. All twenty payments, from November 2021 to August 2026, were $0.20 per share. Payments by calendar year were $0.80 in each of 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025. With the rate flat, the source shows no growth streak, and the table holds no raise to describe.

The calendar has been just as regular. Ex-dates fall in early to mid February, May, August and November, and payment follows about two weeks later. In 2026 the ex-dates were February 10, May 12 and August 11. In 2025 the November payment went ex-dividend on November 10 and was paid on November 24. If the pattern holds, the next payment would go ex-dividend in early to mid November 2026 and be paid about two weeks later, in late November.
