How Many NTB Shares for $500 or $1,000 a Month?
At $2.00 a share a year, $500 a month takes about 3,000 NTB shares, about $170,010 at the Nov 13, 2026 close of $56.67. $1,000 a month takes about 6,000 shares, about $340,020. Before taxes, and only while the rate holds.
Bank of N.T. Butterfield & Son Limited (NTB) pays $0.50 a share quarterly, $2.00 a year, a 3.53% run-rate yield at the Nov 13, 2026 close of $56.67. It has paid since 2016 and raised its annual dividend 1 years in a row.
At today’s rate of $0.50 quarterly and the last close of $56.67, this is what NTB pays before taxes, if the rate stays where it is:
| You hold | Each payment | Per month (avg) | Per year |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 share | $0.50 | $0.17 | $2.00 |
| 100 shares | $50.00 | $16.67 | $200.00 |
| $10,000 invested (176.5 shares) | $88.23 | $29.41 | $352.92 |
| 3,000 shares ($500/mo) | $1,500.00 | $500.00 | $6,000.00 |
| 6,000 shares ($1,000/mo) | $3,000.00 | $1,000.00 | $12,000.00 |
With DRIP on, every payment buys more shares instead of landing as cash. 100 NTB shares reinvest into 0.88 new shares each payment, about 3.6 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 114 shares. Raises speed that up; a falling share price buys more shares per payment, but each is worth less.

NTB Dividend Yield Today vs Its 5-Year Range

- Its own 7-year median is 5.06%, so today’s yield is well below 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.
