The record shows a steady annual rhythm. Reliance has raised its dividend once a year, each time with the payment that goes ex-dividend in early March, the first of the year. The rate went from $0.69 to $0.88 in 2022, then to $1.00 in 2023, $1.10 in 2024, $1.20 in 2025 and $1.25 in 2026. The raises have become smaller in percentage terms: about 27.5% in 2022, 13.6% in 2023, 10% in 2024, 9.1% in 2025 and 4.2% in 2026. Since late 2021, the quarterly rate has grown about 81%. Payments by calendar year rose from $3.52 in 2022 to $4.80 in 2025, about 36% 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 November 2026 and be paid in early December. Past raises have come with the March payment, not the November one.
