Consolidated Edison Inc's dividend schedule
Consolidated Edison Inc has paid quarterly across the 64 years of records we hold, with the most recent ex-date on August 19, 2026. Its ex-dates usually land in the middle of the month.
Across the 55 announcements we have on file, ED declares a dividend a median of 26 days before the shares go ex. That is roughly how much notice ED gives you before each ex-date, once its board declares. The cash then arrives about 31 days after the ex-date.
Increases have a season: of the 22 raises in our record, most take effect with the February payment, so that is the ex-date to watch for a change in the amount. The most recent was 4.5%, effective with the February 2026 ex-date.

Frequently asked questions
- Do I need to own ED 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.

- Consolidated Edison Inc has historically paid quarterly, across 256 payments since January 1962.
- How much does ED pay per share?
- The most recent payment was $0.888 per share, with an ex-date of August 19, 2026. At that rate and frequency the indicated annual dividend is $3.552 a share. This is the cash amount, not a yield — a yield depends on the share price you pay.
