This dividend announcement comes on the heels of UMB Financial's strong second-quarter earnings report.

The company's earnings have been consistently strong over the past four quarters, with UMB Financial surpassing consensus EPS estimates four times. The stock has seen a mixed performance this year, losing about 3.5% since the beginning of the year compared to the S&P 500's gain of 8.6%. However, the company's earnings outlook and industry performance could influence the stock's future performance [1].

Investors should also consider the company's earnings outlook and the industry's performance. UMB Financial's earnings estimates for the coming quarter and the current fiscal year are $2.38 and $9.75, respectively, according to Zacks Investment Research. The Zacks Rank for UMB Financial is currently #3 (Hold), indicating that the shares are expected to perform in line with the market in the near future [1].

The dividend increase is a positive sign for shareholders, but investors should also consider the company's overall financial health and future prospects. UMB Financial's strong earnings performance and the potential for regional bank stocks to outperform could make it an attractive investment opportunity [1].
