DUBLIN, March 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The board of directors of Medtronic plc (NYSE: MDT) on Thursday, March 7, 2024, approved the company's cash dividend for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 of $0.69 per ordinary share. This quarterly declaration is consistent with the dividend announcement made by the company in May 2023. Medtronic is a constituent of the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats index, having increased its annual dividend payment for the past 46 consecutive years. The dividend is payable on April 12, 2024, to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 22, 2024.
In addition to approving the dividend, the board today authorized the expenditure of funds for share repurchases.
