Silicon Motion pays a quarterly dividend of $0.50 per share. Its most recent payment had an ex-date of August 6, 2026 and was paid on August 20, 2026. Over the trailing twelve months, it paid $2.00 per share, a yield of about 0.70% at a share price of $285.50.
The rate has been $0.50 since the payment that went ex-dividend in November 2021. Before that, four payments of $0.35 appear in the table, so that step was a raise of about 43%. The record has a gap. After the August 2022 payment, no payments are listed until one with an ex-date of November 15, 2023. Since then, the company has paid $0.50 every quarter, with ex-dates in February, May, August and November and pay dates about two weeks later. Payments by calendar year were $2.00 in both 2024 and 2025, and three payments in 2026 have added $1.50 so far. The amount has not changed in nearly five years, and the source gives no growth streak.
If the pattern holds, the next payment would go ex-dividend in mid-November 2026 and be paid in late November. The one raise in the table came with a November payment.
