How this tool works
A dividend raise is a regular dividend declared at a higher per-share amount than the company's previous regular payment. The tracker compares each new declaration in our data with the one before it, so a raise appears once it is announced, with the old and new amount, the size of the increase, the current yield, the streak it extends and the safety score. It covers the last 120 days and refreshes daily.
Frequently asked questions
What counts as a dividend raise on this page?
A regular dividend declared at a higher per-share amount than the company's previous regular payment. The tracker compares each declaration with the one before it, so the size of the raise is simply the gap between the two amounts, shown in dollars and as a percentage.
How often is the dividend raises list updated?
Daily. Each refresh scans the newest declarations and adds any company whose per-share dividend went up. The list keeps the last 120 days, so a raise stays visible for about four months before it rolls off.
Why do dividend increases matter to income investors?
A raise lifts the income every share pays without new money going in, and a long run of raises is the clearest sign that management expects earnings to keep covering the payout. The Dividend Aristocrats and Dividend Kings lists are built on exactly this record: 25 and 50 consecutive years of increases.
Does a dividend raise mean the stock is a buy?
No. A raise says the board is confident, not that the shares are cheap. Check the payout ratio and the safety score shown beside each raise: a company already paying out most of its earnings can raise the dividend and still be stretched. Treat the increase as a reason to look closer, not as a signal on its own.
How is this different from the upcoming dividend forecasts board?
The raises tracker looks back at increases that have been declared. The forecasts board looks forward, estimating the amount and dates of payments not yet announced, including which ones are likely to be raised.
