- FactSet maintained its quarterly dividend at 1.10 per share, supporting steady FDS dividends.
- The stock traded ex dividend on November 28, 2025, with minimal expected price impact.
- Dividend growth rates above 7 percent continue to attract long term income investors.
Dividend announcement shows stability
FactSet Research Systems reaffirmed its commitment to shareholders by declaring a quarterly dividend of 1.10 per share. This update was highlighted in reports noting the company’s plan to issue a quarterly dividend of 1.10 per share.
For investors focused on FDS dividends, this confirmation maintains the company’s consistent payout cycle and supports its long standing capital return approach.
FDS yields about 1.59 percent at a share price near 277. This closely matches the 1.58 percent yield referenced when the stock was listed among upcoming ex dividend names in another summary.
That earlier report stated that annualized dividend yields currently stand at 1.58 percent for FDS, aligning with the present forward yield.
Ex dividend timing and investor expectations
FactSet traded ex dividend on November 28, 2025, with payment scheduled for December 18. A recent reminder noted that FDS, along with two other companies, should experience only expected ex dividend price drops … ranging from 0.15 percent to 0.39 percent.
For income oriented shareholders, these mild fluctuations are typical and generally do not have lasting effects on the stock’s long term trajectory.
The limited expected decline is consistent with FactSet’s trading behavior this week, as shares continued to show firm demand even around the usual dividend related activity.
Why dividend investors pay attention to FactSet
FactSet is not known for a high yield, but it has established a reliable history of dividend growth that enhances its appeal for FDS dividend watchers.
The company’s five year dividend growth rate of about 7.45 percent and ten year rate near 9.76 percent reflect meaningful compounding potential over time.
With a forward Chowder number above 9, FDS fits the profile favored by dividend growth investors who prioritize rising payouts rather than headline yield.
The stock’s foundations support ongoing dividend strength. FactSet maintains strong profitability with net margins near 26 percent and generates healthy cash flow per share above 19.
Its valuation near a price to earnings ratio of 18 is considered reasonable for a data driven financial services company with a recurring revenue platform.
These elements echo sentiment from recent summaries noting that FactSet’s payout reliability is supported by predictable revenues and could appeal to shareholders focused on long term income stability.
Is FDS currently attractive for dividend focused investors
With shares trading well below the 52 week high of about 497, the stock now offers a more appealing entry point than earlier in the year.
Many valuation models would consider the current level a margin of safety zone, supported by steady revenue growth and robust profitability.
The core attraction for investors is the combination of dividend durability and the likelihood of continued payout increases. FactSet’s long record of consistent raises, supported by stable operating cash flows, provides confidence in the sustainability of future FDS dividends.
The latest dividend declaration reinforces the company’s standing as a dependable name for investors who favor stability and disciplined growth within a dividend reinvestment strategy.
