We hold 157 payments for it, going back to November 1987 — the full record is below, with what it has paid and when, and how far ahead of each ex-date it declares.

Home Depot, Inc.'s dividend schedule
Home Depot, Inc. has paid quarterly across the 38 years of records we hold, with the most recent ex-date on September 3, 2026. Its ex-dates usually land in the first third of the month.
Across the 56 announcements we have on file, HD declares a dividend a median of 13 days before the shares go ex. That is roughly how much notice HD gives you before each ex-date, once its board declares. The cash then arrives about 16 days after the ex-date.
Increases have a season: of the 24 raises in our record, most take effect with the March payment, so that is the ex-date to watch for a change in the amount. The most recent was 1.3%, effective with the March 2026 ex-date.
