## Dividend summary

| Metric | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Frequency | quarterly |
| Trailing 12 months | $3.00 |
| Forward yield | 0.67% |
| Growth streak | 3 years |

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing pays a quarterly dividend. Its most recent payment, $0.87 per share, had an ex-date of September 16, 2026 and a pay date of October 8, 2026. A payment of $0.86 per share is already declared, with an ex-date of December 10, 2026 and a pay date of January 7, 2027. Over the trailing twelve months, it paid $3.00 per share, a yield of about 0.62% at a share price of $482.61.

The per-share amount varies from payment to payment rather than moving in fixed steps. In 2024 and 2026, the March and September payments were higher than the one before, while the June and December payments were a cent or two lower. The 2025 payments did not follow that shape. The September 2026 payment of $0.87 compares with $0.64 a year earlier, about 36% more. Payments by calendar year rose from $1.82 in 2022 to $1.86 in 2023, $2.34 in 2024 and $2.70 in 2025, an increase of about 48% over that span. The company has increased its dividend for three consecutive calendar years.

If the pattern holds, the payment after the declared December one would go ex-dividend in mid-March 2027 and be paid in early-to-mid April.
