Since then, Welltower has raised it once a year, each time with the payment that goes ex-dividend in August. The rate went to $0.67 in 2024, $0.74 in 2025 and $0.85 in 2026. Those raises were about 9.8%, 10.4% and 14.9%, so each step has been larger than the one before. In total, the quarterly rate is about 39% above the $0.61 level. Payments by calendar year were $2.44 in both 2022 and 2023, then $2.56 in 2024 and $2.82 in 2025. The company has now increased its dividend for two consecutive years.

If the pattern holds, the next payment would go ex-dividend in mid-November 2026 and be paid in late November. Past raises have come with the August payment rather than the November one.
