quarterly dividend of $0.45 per share ($1.80 annualized).
Previously, the company paid $0.45 per share.
Shares must be purchased before the ex-div date of April 11, 2023 to qualify for the dividend.

At the current share price of $77.73 / share,
the stock’s dividend yield is 2.32%.
Looking back five years and taking a sample every week, the average dividend yield has been
2.01%,
the lowest has been 1.12%,
and the highest has been 4.56%.
The standard deviation of yields is 0.59 (n=237).
The current dividend yield is
0.52 standard deviations
above
the historical average.
Additionally, the company’s dividend payout ratio is 0.12.
The payout ratio tells us how much of a company’s income is paid out in dividends. A payout ratio of one (1.0)
means 100% of the company’s income is paid in a dividend.
A payout ratio greater than one means the company is dipping into savings in order to maintain its dividend – not a
healthy situation.
Companies with few growth prospects are expected to pay out most of their income in dividends, which typically
means a payout ratio between 0.5 and 1.0.
Companies with good growth prospects are expected to retain some earnings in order to invest
in those growth prospects, which translates to a payout ratio of zero to 0.5.
The company’s 3-Year dividend growth rate is 0.12%,
demonstrating that it has increased its dividend over time.
