How Many INDB Shares for $500 or $1,000 a Month?
At $2.56 a share a year, $500 a month takes about 2,344 INDB shares, about $197,763 at the Nov 12, 2026 close of $84.37. $1,000 a month takes about 4,688 shares, about $395,527. Before taxes, and only while the rate holds.
Independent Bank (INDB) pays $0.64 a share quarterly, $2.56 a year, a 3.03% run-rate yield at the Nov 12, 2026 close of $84.37. It has paid since 1986 and raised its annual dividend 15 years in a row.
At today’s rate of $0.64 quarterly and the last close of $84.37, this is what INDB pays before taxes, if the rate stays where it is:
| You hold | Each payment | Per month (avg) | Per year |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 share | $0.64 | $0.21 | $2.56 |
| 100 shares | $64.00 | $21.33 | $256.00 |
| $10,000 invested (118.5 shares) | $75.86 | $25.29 | $303.43 |
| 2,344 shares ($500/mo) | $1,500.16 | $500.05 | $6,000.64 |
| 4,688 shares ($1,000/mo) | $3,000.32 | $1,000.11 | $12,001.28 |
With DRIP on, every payment buys more shares instead of landing as cash. 100 INDB shares reinvest into 0.76 new shares each payment, about 3.1 new shares a year at today’s price and rate, and each new share collects the next payment too. To DRIP one whole new share every payment you need about 132 shares. Raises speed that up; a falling share price buys more shares per payment, but each is worth less.

INDB Dividend Yield Today vs Its 5-Year Range

- Its own 7-year median is 2.89%, so today’s yield is near its usual level.
Where today ranks in its own history is in the paid report
How it works. Each month-end over the last 7 years gives one yield: the regular payment then, times payments a year, over that day’s close. Specials are left out. 50 means today’s yield sits right at its usual level. A lower score means the yield is below its usual level, so the price is high against the payout. A higher score means the yield is above its usual level. On price alone a payer stays between 15 and 85. Steady raisers get a few points back. It reads the past, not the future.

Against the 10 dividend-paying Financial Services companies closest to INDB in market value, INDB’s 3.03% run-rate yield is above the group’s middle yield of 2.60%, and its raise streak of 15 years is the 3rd longest. A higher yield than the group is not a bonus by itself: it is often the market pricing in a cut, so read it next to the rating and the coverage behind it.
