Balchem Corp's dividend schedule
Balchem Corp has paid annually across the 37 years of records we hold, with the most recent ex-date on December 23, 2025. Its ex-dates usually land in the last third of the month.
Across the 13 announcements we have on file, BCPC declares a dividend a median of 12 days before the shares go ex. That is roughly how much notice BCPC gives you before each ex-date, once its board declares. The cash then arrives about 28 days after the ex-date.
Increases have a season: of the 4 raises in our record, most take effect with the December payment, so that is the ex-date to watch for a change in the amount. The most recent was 10.3%, effective with the December 2025 ex-date.
