CL pays roughly once a quarter (4× a year). Figures use CL’s current yield and assume it stays constant; real yields move with the share price and the dividend. Share counts are approximate, based on an estimated price of about $89.70. For a covered-call or variable-payout fund the yield is backward-looking, not a promise.

About CL

Colgate-Palmolive is a consumer-staples company best known for oral-care, personal-care, home-care, and pet-nutrition brands sold worldwide. It is a Dividend King with more than 50 consecutive years of dividend increases.

CL is a dividend-king stock from Colgate-Palmolive 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 CL: 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 CL calculator

  1. Replace the pre-filled yield with CL’s current dividend yield from your broker or the fund’s page.
  2. Set your initial investment and monthly contribution.
  3. Estimate the dividend growth rate and price growth rate. For a dividend-king stock these can differ a lot — be realistic rather than optimistic.
  4. 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.

CL dividend calculator FAQ

How does this CL dividend calculator work?
It runs a month-by-month projection: each month it adds your contribution, pays a dividend based on the yield, optionally reinvests it (DRIP), then applies price growth. The page loads pre-filled with CL's current yield (about 2.33% as of Jul 10, 2026); adjust the dividend-growth, price-growth, and tax assumptions to fit your own outlook.
What yield should I use for CL?
As of Jul 10, 2026, CL's dividend yield was about 2.33% ($2.09 per share over the trailing year). Yields move with the share price, so use the current figure from your broker rather than a fixed number. Enter the trailing or forward yield, whichever you prefer to model.
How often does CL pay dividends, and when?
Colgate-Palmolive Company pays a quarterly dividend; its most recent payment was $0.53 per share, ex-dividend Apr 20, 2026, with the next ex-dividend date declared for Jul 20, 2026. This calculator compounds monthly and projects annual totals, so it works the same regardless of the payment schedule — the cadence just affects when cash actually lands in your account.
Is the CL projection a guarantee?
No. It is an educational projection based on the assumptions you enter, held constant. Real dividends can rise, be cut, or stop, and prices fluctuate. Use it to compare scenarios, not to predict returns, and never rely on a single calculator for an investment decision.
