The new dividend represents an annualized amount of $3.234 per share, compared to the previous annualized amount of $3.228 per share. This increase is the latest in Realty Income's long history of dividend growth, which now spans 30 consecutive years. The company has declared 132 monthly dividend increases since its initial public offering in 1994.
Realty Income's dividend yield, based on the new monthly dividend, is now 5.44%. This yield is attractive compared to other dividend stocks and REITs. For instance, the S&P 500 index currently has a dividend yield of around 1.2%, and the average REIT yield is approximately 3.9% [1].
The company's dividend growth is supported by a diversified portfolio of over 15,600 properties in the U.S., the U.K., and seven other countries in Europe. Realty Income is actively seeking new growth opportunities, including investments in Europe, casinos, data centers, and debt investments [2].
Realty Income's monthly dividend payment schedule provides a reliable income stream for investors, particularly those in retirement. The company's dividend history and consistent growth make it a strong candidate for dividend-focused investors seeking stability and income.
