Is ADP a Dividend King?
Yes. On November 12, 2025, ADP’s board raised the quarterly dividend by 16 cents, to $1.70 a share. ADP called it the 51st year in a row that it has raised the payout, past the 50 years that define a Dividend King.
The new rate is $6.80 a year, about 10% more. The first $1.70 check went to holders of record on December 12, 2025 and was paid on January 1, 2026.

ADP’s raises, one by one
The quarterly rate tells the story more clearly than yearly totals. It was $0.93 in 2021. The November raises then lifted it to $1.04 (about 11.8%), $1.25 (about 20.2%), $1.40 (12.0%), $1.54 (10.0%) and now $1.70 (about 10.4%).
So every raise since 2021 has been 10% or more. Each new rate first shows up in the December ex-date, then carries through the following year’s March, June and September payments.

About ADP
ADP is a leading provider of payroll, human-capital-management, and business-outsourcing services. It is a Dividend King with more than 50 consecutive years of dividend increases, supported by recurring, subscription-like revenue.
ADP is a dividend-king stock from ADP that distributes quarterly. Because dividend investing is about both income and the growth of that income, the calculator above lets you model three things independently for ADP: the starting yield, how fast the dividend grows each year, and how fast the share price appreciates. That separation matters most for high-yield versus dividend-growth choices, where a lower starting yield that grows quickly can overtake a higher static yield over time.
How to use the ADP calculator
- Replace the pre-filled yield with ADP’s current dividend yield from your broker or the fund’s page.
- Set your initial investment and monthly contribution.
- Estimate the dividend growth rate and price growth rate. For a dividend-king stock these can differ a lot — be realistic rather than optimistic.
- Choose your dividend tax rate and whether to reinvest (DRIP), then read the projected value, dividends received, and yield on cost.
The full math, including how the money-weighted return is computed, is on the methodology page.
