On May 29, 2026, Lowe’s board raised the quarterly dividend 4%, from $1.20 to $1.25 a share. The first check at the new rate was paid on August 5 to holders of record on July 22. A full year at $1.25 comes to $5.00 a share.

Is LOW a Dividend King?
Lowe’s does not call itself one. Its own release says it has paid a dividend every quarter since it went public in 1961. It says it has raised it for more than 25 years in a row. That makes it a Dividend Aristocrat, a label Lowe’s says it values.
Some websites describe a longer streak, but this page sticks to what Lowe’s itself states. A Dividend King needs 50 straight years of raises.

Since then the raises have been a nickel a quarter: $1.10, $1.15, $1.20 and now $1.25. Yearly growth slowed to 4.7% in 2024 and 4.4% in 2025. The first three 2026 payments total $3.65 per share.

About LOW
Lowe's is a U.S. home-improvement retailer. The company says it has paid a dividend every quarter since going public in 1961 and has raised it for more than 25 consecutive years, which makes it a Dividend Aristocrat.
LOW is a dividend-growth stock from Lowe's 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 LOW: 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 LOW calculator
- Replace the pre-filled yield with LOW’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-growth 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.
