The record shows a steady annual rhythm. Restaurant Brands has raised its dividend once a year, each time with the payment that goes ex-dividend in March. The rate went from $0.53 to $0.54 in 2022, then to $0.55 in 2023, $0.58 in 2024, $0.62 in 2025 and $0.65 in 2026. The first two raises were one cent, about 1.9% each. The last three were larger, at three to four cents, or roughly 4.8% to 6.9%. Since late 2021, the quarterly rate has grown about 23%. Payments by calendar year rose from $2.16 in 2022 to $2.48 in 2025, about 15% more. The company has now increased its dividend for five consecutive calendar years.
If the pattern holds, the next payment would go ex-dividend in late December 2026 and be paid in early January 2027. Past raises have come with the March payment, not the December one.
