Does Walmart pay a dividend?
Yes, four times a year. On February 19, 2026, Walmart’s board set the dividend for fiscal 2027 at $0.99 per share, 5% more than the $0.94 paid the year before. It is paid in four equal parts of $0.2475.
Walmart called it the 53rd year in a row that it raised its yearly dividend. That streak places it among the Dividend Kings, the companies with 50 or more straight annual raises.

Walmart’s upcoming ex-date: Dec 11, 2026.
Walmart dividend history
For about ten years Walmart raised its dividend by small steps. Split-adjusted, the yearly payout went from $0.64 in 2014 to $0.76 in 2023, with most raises close to 2%. The 2023 total was just 1.8% above 2022.
Then the pace jumped. 2024 paid $0.83, up 9.2%, and 2025 paid $0.94, up 13.3%. Over the decade from 2015 to 2025 that works out to about 3.7% a year. In 2026, three payments of $0.2475 have gone ex so far, $0.7425 per share in all.
The 2024 stock split and older numbers
Walmart split its stock 3-for-1 in February 2024. Holders of record on February 22 got two extra shares for each share, and trading on the new basis began on February 26, 2024.
Older dividend figures shrink by the same factor. The $2.28 a share Walmart paid in fiscal 2024 equals $0.76 on today’s share count, which is the figure in the table. Many websites show the old, larger amounts, so check which basis a source uses.
WMT dividend yield
Walmart’s yield is small. On Oct 13, 2026, it had paid $0.9775 per share over 12 months, about 0.88% of a share price near $111.08. At the full $0.99 rate the yield is about 0.89%.
Is Walmart a good dividend stock?
It depends on what you want, and this page does not give advice. Walmart offers a long, unbroken record of raises rather than a high payout. In fiscal 2026 it declared $0.94 a share against diluted earnings of $2.73, so it paid out about a third of its profit.
Its cash return is larger than the dividend alone. In the year to January 31, 2026, Walmart paid $7.5 billion in dividends and spent $8.1 billion buying back its own shares.
How much does Walmart pay per share?
$0.2475 a quarter, or $0.99 for the fiscal year. 100 WMT shares earn $24.75 each quarter and $99 a year. At that rate, $1,000 a year would take about 1,011 shares.

About WMT
Walmart is the largest retailer in the world, running a global network of supercenters, discount stores, and a growing e-commerce business. It is a Dividend King with more than 50 consecutive years of dividend increases.
WMT is a dividend-king stock from Walmart 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 WMT: 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 WMT calculator
- Replace the pre-filled yield with WMT’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.
