## Dividend summary

| Metric | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Frequency | quarterly |
| Trailing 12 months | $1.85 |
| Forward yield | 2.29% |
| Growth streak | 4 years |

Wells Fargo pays a quarterly dividend of $0.50 per share. Its most recent payment had an ex-date of August 7, 2026 and was paid on September 1, 2026. Over the trailing twelve months, it paid $1.85 per share, a yield of about 2.3% at a share price of $80.45.

The record shows a regular annual raise. Since 2022, Wells Fargo has raised its dividend each year with the payment that goes ex-dividend in early August. Each raise was five cents: from $0.25 to $0.30 in 2022, then to $0.35 in 2023, $0.40 in 2024, $0.45 in 2025 and $0.50 in 2026. Because the step stays the same, the percentage has shrunk, from 20% in 2022 to about 11.1% in 2026. An earlier five-cent raise, from $0.20 to $0.25, came with the February 2022 payment. Since late 2021, the quarterly rate has grown 150%. Payments by calendar year rose from $1.10 in 2022 to $1.70 in 2025. The company has now increased its dividend for four consecutive years.

If the pattern holds, the next payment would go ex-dividend in early November 2026 and be paid around December 1. Recent raises have come with the August payment.
