24 companies increased its dividends last week (03/03/25 to 03/07/25)

The chart details dividend increases for various companies between March 3, 2025, and March 7, 2025. in total 24 companies increased its dividends and 2 cut its dividends.

With 30 consecutive years of dividend increases, General Dynamics is a Dividend Aristocrat, a designation for companies in the S&P 500 that have raised their dividend annually for at least 25 years. This streak underscores the company’s reliability and commitment to shareholders, even through economic cycles, including potential defense spending fluctuations. The 5-year dividend CAGR of 6.84% indicates steady growth over the past five years, outpacing the average inflation rate (historically around 2-3% annually in the U.S.). General Dynamics operates in the aerospace and defense sector, providing products like military ships, aircraft, and combat systems. The 5.6% increase could reflect confidence in sustained government contracts, particularly with global defense spending remaining robust as of March 2025. The company’s diversified portfolio (e.g., Gulfstream jets, armored vehicles) likely supports this financial stability.

With 14 consecutive years of dividend increases, Best Buy is well on its way toward Dividend Aristocrat status. Best Buy operates in the consumer electronics retail sector, facing competition from online giants like Amazon and shifting consumer preferences. The 1.1% increase might reflect a conservative stance amid potential uncertainties, such as supply chain costs, consumer spending trends, or competition, as of March 2025. However, its 14-year growth streak and high 5-year CAGR indicate resilience, possibly driven by its adaptation to omnichannel retailing and Geek Squad services.

The table indicates 12 consecutive years of dividend increases, which aligns with American Tower’s status as a reliable dividend grower.

American Tower operates as a real estate investment trust (REIT) focused on communications infrastructure, leasing tower space to wireless providers, broadcasters, and other tenants globally. The 4.9% increase signals confidence in its business model, which benefits from the growing demand for wireless data and 5G infrastructure. However, REITs are required to distribute at least 90% of taxable income as dividends, which can limit flexibility. The 2024 adjustment (lowering then raising the dividend) may reflect efforts to manage this requirement while addressing capital needs.

62 companies raised its dividends last week. Here are the companies with the raise, growth year, and 5 year dividend CAGR

A comprehensive chart highlights the dividend increases announced by various companies between February 24, 2025, and February 28, 2025. This data offers valuable insights for investors tracking dividend growth and long-term performance.

Home Depot (HD) announced a 2.2% increase in its quarterly dividend on February 25, 2025, raising it from $2.25 per share to $2.30 per share. This adjustment results in an annual dividend of $9.20 per share, payable on March 27, 2025, to shareholders of record on March 13, 2025. This marks the 152nd consecutive quarter that Home Depot has paid a cash dividend, underscoring its long-standing commitment to returning value to shareholders. The company has also increased its dividend annually for 16 consecutive years, earning it recognition as a "dividend achiever."The 2.2% increase is relatively modest compared to some of Home Depot’s historical raises, such as the 7.7% boost in the previous year (2024). However, it aligns with the company’s cautious outlook for fiscal 2025, as it navigates challenges like high interest rates, sluggish home sales, and macroeconomic pressures affecting consumer spending on home improvement projects.

Domino's Pizza announced a 15.2% increase in its quarterly dividend on February 24, 2025, raising it from $1.51 per share to $1.74 per share. This marks the 12th consecutive year of dividend increases for the company.This increase came alongside the release of Domino’s Q4 2024 financial results, which reported earnings per share (EPS) of $4.89 (missing the estimate of $4.92) and revenue of $1.44 billion (missing the estimate of $1.48 billion). Despite the earnings miss, the dividend hike demonstrates the company’s confidence in its financial stability and commitment to returning value to shareholders.For dividend growth investors, Domino’s Pizza remains an attractive option due to its consistent history of increases, low payout ratio, and strong cash flow generation. However, the low yield (1.51%) may not appeal to income-focused investors seeking higher immediate returns. The recent 15.2% hike, combined with the stock’s price drop post-earnings, could present a buying opportunity for long-term investors, but they should monitor the company’s ability to navigate economic challenges and sustain growth.

The TJX Companies, Inc. (TJX) has announced a notable 13% increase in its quarterly dividend, raising it to $0.425 per share. This decision, announced in late February 2025, reflects the company’s strong financial performance and confidence in its ongoing growth.TJX reported strong fourth-quarter results for Fiscal Year 2025 (ending February 2025), with sales of $16.4 billion and earnings per share (EPS) of $1.23, both exceeding expectations. Comparable store sales grew by 5%, and the pretax profit margin reached 11.6%, indicating robust operational performance. This financial strength likely underpins the decision to raise the dividend and plan for a share buyback program of $2–$2.5 billion for Fiscal Year 2026.

Macy's declared a quarterly dividend of $0.1737 per share, payable on January 2, 2025, to shareholders of record as of December 13, 2024. This represents a slight increase from its prior quarterly dividend of $0.1654 per share, marking a 5.02% rise over the last twelve months as of late 2024.
