Chevron's Streak of Dividend Hikes Hits 39 Years Straight

Chevron is one of the most reliable dividend-paying stocks in the market, with a nearly four-decade streak of annual dividend increases. At its current forward annualized payout of $7.12 per share, an investor would need to own approximately 141 shares to collect around $1,000 in annual dividend income.

The company's most recent declared quarterly dividend is $1.78 per share, paid on September 10 to holders of record on August 19. This rate has been confirmed for the three 2026 payments to date.

Chevron traded at $206.32 on September 24, near its 52-week high of $217.78. The current yield is 3.21%, well below where CVX yielded when the stock sat in the $140s a year ago.
