KKR & Co. Inc.'s dividend schedule
KKR & Co. Inc. has paid quarterly across the 15 years of records we hold, with the most recent ex-date on August 10, 2026. Its ex-dates usually land in the middle of the month.
Across the 17 announcements we have on file, KKR declares a dividend a median of 10 days before the shares go ex. That is roughly how much notice KKR 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 May payment, so that is the ex-date to watch for a change in the amount. The most recent was 5.4%, effective with the May 2026 ex-date.
