Ticker Safety Rating 5-yr div growth Raise streak Rate → Yield Yield in 5 yrs* Mkt cap Industry

These are the stocks growing their dividend fastest: at least five straight years of raises, ranked by how fast the yearly dividend grew from 2020 to 2025. Fast growers usually start with a modest yield, so the table also shows what today’s yield turns into five years from now if the raises keep coming at the same pace.

This is the snowball side of dividend investing. You trade a smaller check now for a check that grows every year, and if you DRIP, the raises and the new shares stack on top of each other.

How Dividend Growth Catches Up With a Bigger Yield

A stock yielding 2% that raises its dividend 12% a year pays about 6.2% on today’s price after 10 years. A stock yielding 5% that never raises still pays 5%. That crossover is the whole case for dividend growth. The Yield in 5 yrs column runs the same math for every row over five years, at the stock’s own 5-year pace. Treat the fastest rows with care: growth of 25% or 30% a year usually slows as the payout takes a bigger share of earnings.

If you DRIP, growth compounds twice: each raise makes every share pay more, and each payment buys new DRIP shares that get the next raise too. To see what that does to a real position over decades, run it through the dividend reinvestment calculator.

How the Growth Rate Is Measured

The 5-yr div growth column is the compound yearly growth of the regular dividend per share from 2020 to 2025, using full calendar years, split-adjusted, with specials removed. A stock qualifies with at least five straight years of higher yearly dividends, a steady regular rate and no cut in the past year. 525 stocks pass; the median among them grows its dividend 7.6% a year.

Growth rates above 35% a year are left out as data errors or one-off resets. For the longest records rather than the fastest, see the Dividend Kings, and for this month’s raises as they happen, the dividend increases feed.

Questions About Dividend Growth Stocks

What is a dividend growth stock?

A company that raises its dividend year after year at a solid pace. Every stock on this page has at least five straight years of higher yearly dividends, a steady regular rate and positive 5-year growth.

How is 5-year dividend growth calculated?

It is the compound yearly growth of the regular dividend per share from 2020 to 2025, using full calendar years, split-adjusted, with special dividends removed.

Is a fast dividend grower better than a high yielder?

It depends on when you need the money. A 2% yield growing 12% a year pays about 6.2% on today’s price after 10 years, passing a 5% yielder that does not grow. If you need cash now, the higher yield pays more today; if you can wait, growth usually catches up.

Can a fast grower keep this pace?

Rarely forever. Very fast growth often comes from a low starting payout, and it slows once the dividend takes a bigger share of earnings. Watch whether earnings and free cash flow keep growing too.

What does Yield in 5 yrs mean?

Today’s yield grown at the stock’s 5-year dividend growth rate for five more years, measured on today’s price. It shows what you would earn on money invested now if the raises continued at the same pace. It is arithmetic, not a forecast.

More Dividend Lists and Tools

How this list is built: U.S. stocks worth at least $250 million with 5+ straight years of higher yearly dividends, a steady regular rate and no cut in the past year, ranked by 5-year dividend growth (2020–2025, full calendar years, split-adjusted, specials removed; rates above 35% a year treated as bad data), top 100. *Yield in 5 yrs = today’s yield × (1 + 5-yr growth)5, on today’s price. Yield = the latest regular dividend per share × payouts per year ÷ last close (never a trailing 12-month figure; specials are left out of the rate). 1-yr price = change in the split-adjusted close over 365 days; 1-yr total return adds every payout over those 365 days to the price change, without reinvesting. Rate change compares the yearly run rate now with the regular rate in force 13 months ago. U.S. exchanges only; dead and delisted tickers, preferred shares, notes and mutual funds are left out, and a company with two share classes is listed once. Prices, market caps and dividend history come from DRIPCALC’s price and dividend database; prices as of Nov 10, 2026. This is data, not investment advice.
