Chevron Raises Quarterly Dividend by 4.1% to $1.78
By Colin Kellaher
Chevron's board has raised the energy giant's quarterly dividend by 4.1%, to $1.78 from $1.71.
The new payout, equal to $7.12 a year, represents an annual yield of about 4.16% based on Thursday's closing price of $171.19, up from 4%.
The Houston company on Friday said the dividend is payable March 10 to shareholders or record Feb. 17.
Chevron has now raised its dividend got 39 consecutive years, and the increase maintains the company's spot in the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats Index, whose 69 members have paid a higher dividend for at least 25 straight years.
Chevron, which last February raised its quarterly dividend by 4.9%, returned $27.1 billion to shareholders last year, including $12.1 in share repurchases, $12.8 billion in dividends and $2.2 billion of Hess share purchases in early 2025.
