V dividend yield and payout

To collect a dividend you must own the shares before the ex-dividend date. V's dividend yield above is the annual rate divided by the recent price; it moves inversely with the share price, so a yield figure only means something next to the date it was measured. The per-share amounts here are the cash dividends declared, not any special or one-time distributions.

V dividend history

The most recent regular dividends V has paid, newest first:

SELECT toDate(ex_dividend_date) AS date,
       round(cash_amount, 4) AS dividend_per_share
FROM global_markets.stocks_dividends
WHERE ticker = 'V' AND frequency IN (1, 2, 4, 12) AND ex_dividend_date >= today() - 1100
ORDER BY ex_dividend_date DESC
LIMIT 10

The rhythm of the payments shows the schedule: a quarterly payer sends a check on that cadence, and the per-share amount is what steps up (or holds, or is cut) over time.

V dividend growth by year

Totaling the regular dividends within each calendar year turns the individual payments into a growth picture.

SELECT toString(toYear(ex_dividend_date)) AS year,
       round(sum(cash_amount), 2) AS dividends_paid_per_share
FROM global_markets.stocks_dividends
WHERE ticker = 'V' AND frequency IN (1, 2, 4, 12)
  AND ex_dividend_date >= toDate('2019-01-01') AND ex_dividend_date < toDate(concat(toString(toYear(today())), '-01-01'))
GROUP BY year
ORDER BY year

In 2019, V paid $1.05 per share across the year; by 2025 the annual total had reached $2.44. A rising line is a company lifting its payout year after year; a flat line is a held dividend; a fall is a cut. The year-by-year record is the single most useful thing to check before treating a stock as an income holding, and it is the part of a dividend a screener's single yield number hides.

Is V a good dividend stock?

Two numbers frame that question, and both sit on this page: the yield (0.76%) and the direction of the annual payout above. A yield below the broad-market average paired with a steadily rising payout is the profile of a dividend-growth name, where the appeal is a small check today that compounds. A high yield next to a flat or falling payout is an income-now profile, and it warrants a closer look at whether earnings cover the payment. V's record above shows which of the two it looks like. What a dividend history cannot show on its own is safety: that rests on earnings and free cash flow, not on the run of past payments, so a stretched payout ratio can precede a cut that the history has not yet recorded.

When is V's ex-dividend date?

The ex-dividend date is the cutoff: buy V before it and the upcoming dividend is yours, buy on it and the dividend goes to the seller. On the ex-date the stock opens lower by roughly the dividend amount, since the cash is leaving the company. V's most recent ex-dividend date was May 12, 2026. The record date follows one business day later under T+1 settlement, and the pay date comes a few weeks after that. Upcoming ex-dates across the market are on the ex-dividend calendar.
