The raises have grown smaller in percentage terms, from about 14.3% to about 5.3%. Since late 2021, the quarterly rate has grown about 41%. Payments by calendar year of ex-date rose from $2.32 in 2022 to $3.04 in 2025. The source gives a growth streak of five years.

If the pattern holds, the next payment would go ex-dividend in late December 2026 and be paid in mid-January 2027. That is the payment where past raises have appeared.
