Armstrong World Industries Inc's dividend schedule
Armstrong World Industries Inc has paid quarterly across the 18 years of records we hold, with the most recent ex-date on August 5, 2026. Its ex-dates usually land in the first third of the month.
Across the 32 announcements we have on file, AWI declares a dividend a median of 14 days before the shares go ex. That is roughly how much notice AWI gives you before each ex-date, once its board declares. The cash then arrives about 15 days after the ex-date.
Increases have a season: of the 7 raises in our record, most take effect with the November payment, so that is the ex-date to watch for a change in the amount. The most recent was 10.1%, effective with the November 2025 ex-date.

Frequently asked questions
- Do I need to own AWI before the ex-dividend date?
- Yes. You must already hold the shares when trading opens on the ex-dividend date to receive the payment. Buying on the ex-date itself is too late — the seller keeps that dividend. See ex-date vs record date vs payment date for how the dates fit together.

- Armstrong World Industries Inc has historically paid quarterly, across 35 payments since March 2008.
- How much does AWI pay per share?
- The most recent payment was $0.339 per share, with an ex-date of August 5, 2026. At that rate and frequency the indicated annual dividend is $1.356 a share. This is the cash amount, not a yield — a yield depends on the share price you pay.
