Northwest Bancshares pays a quarterly dividend of $0.20 per share. Its most recent payment had an ex-date of August 6, 2026 and was paid on August 18, 2026. Over the trailing twelve months, it paid $0.80 per share, a yield of about 5.37% at a share price of $14.91.
The record shows a flat rate. All 20 payments in the table, going back to November 2021, were $0.20 per share, so there have been no raises over that span and the source gives no growth streak. Payments by calendar year were $0.80 in each of 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025. So far in 2026, three payments have added up to $0.60.
The schedule is regular. Ex-dates fall in early February, early May, early August and early November, and each payment has arrived about one to two weeks after its ex-date. If the pattern holds, the next payment would go ex-dividend in early November 2026 and be paid in mid-November. That would bring the 2026 calendar-year total to $0.80, the same as in each of the past four years.
