Dividend Information About Hub Group: Everything You Need to Know Before the Ex-Dividend Date on Sep 12, 2025

Hub Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: HUBG) has announced its upcoming dividend payment of $0.125 per share, set for Sep 24, 2025. The ex-dividend date for this payout is scheduled for Sep 12, 2025, marking the last day investors can purchase the stock to receive the dividend. The announcement was made on Aug 29, 2025, and follows a consistent pattern, as the average of the last 10 dividend payments per share also stands at $0.125, indicating no change in the payout amount. This distribution is a cash dividend, continuing the company’s recent dividend practices, which include the last payout on Jun 30, 2025, also at $0.125 per share. With a dividend yield of 1.3%, the payout remains slightly below the industry average, but the company has demonstrated strong earnings coverage for its dividend, with a projected payout ratio of 18% based on expected growth in earnings per share of 71.5% over the next year. Analysts have noted the stability and sustainability of Hub Group’s dividend, despite its relatively short payment history.

Over the past week, Hub Group has seen several developments that could influence its operations and market performance. Most notably, Trexquant Investment LP recently increased its stake in the company, signaling growing institutional confidence in its long-term prospects. Meanwhile, Hub Group’s second-quarter earnings exceeded expectations, with the company reporting $0.45 per share, a positive sign for its financial health. Additionally, as of late, the company has seen a modest rise in its stock price, with shares trading at $37.43 as of Sept 5, 2025, reflecting a $0.08 increase from the previous day. These developments suggest that Hub Group is gaining traction in both earnings performance and investor sentiment.

Since the last update, Hub Group has also demonstrated steady growth in its workforce, with total employees rising to 6,471 as of Dec 31, 2024, an increase of 521 or 8.76% compared to the prior year. This expansion highlights the company’s ongoing operational growth and its commitment to scaling operations. Furthermore, with a consistent dividend yield and strong earnings coverage, Hub Group remains a compelling option for investors seeking stable income. However, its relatively short dividend history and the relatively low yield compared to industry benchmarks suggest that it may not be the top choice for conservative income-focused portfolios. As the ex-dividend date approaches on Sep 12, 2025, investors should be aware that any purchase made after this date will not be eligible to receive the upcoming $0.125 per share dividend.
