Lazard pays a quarterly dividend of $0.50 per share. Its most recent payment had an ex-date of August 3, 2026 and was paid on August 14, 2026. Over the trailing twelve months, it paid $2.00 per share, a yield of about 5.56% at a share price of $35.94.
The rate has been unchanged for four years. The table shows one increase, from $0.47 to $0.50 with the payment that went ex-dividend in August 2022, a raise of about 6.4%. Every payment since then has been $0.50. Payments by calendar year were $1.94 in 2022 and $2.00 in each of 2023, 2024 and 2025. The source gives no current growth streak, which fits a flat rate over that period.
The timing has been regular. Payments go ex-dividend in early February, early May, early August and early November, and are paid about two weeks later. In 2025 and 2026, the four payments each year came to $2.00 per share. If the pattern holds, the next payment would go ex-dividend in early November 2026 and be paid in mid-November. Over the last four years, that November payment has kept the same $0.50 rate.
