Universal Health pays a quarterly dividend of $0.20 per share. Its most recent payment had an ex-date of September 1, 2026 and was paid on September 15, 2026. Over the trailing twelve months, it paid $0.80 per share, a yield of about 0.46% at a share price of $175.72.
The record is flat. All 20 payments in the table, going back to November 2021, were $0.20 per share. There have been no raises over that period, so the source lists no growth streak. Payments by calendar year totaled $0.80 in each full year shown, from 2022 through 2025.
The timing is regular. Ex-dates fall at the turn of each quarter, around the end of February or start of March, the end of May or start of June, the end of August or start of September, and the end of November or start of December. Payments follow about two weeks later, usually in mid-March, mid-June, mid-September and mid-December. In 2026 the June ex-date came a little later than usual, on June 8, with payment on June 18. If the pattern holds, the next payment would go ex-dividend around the start of December 2026 and be paid in mid-December.
