Mgp Ingredients Inc's dividend schedule
Mgp Ingredients Inc has paid quarterly across the 37 years of records we hold, with the most recent ex-date on August 14, 2026. Its ex-dates usually land in the middle of the month.
Across the 45 announcements we have on file, MGPI declares a dividend a median of 15 days before the shares go ex. That is roughly how much notice MGPI 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 4 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.

Special dividends
Payments well outside MGPI's regular rate. These are one-offs — they are excluded from the growth figures above, and they are not assumed to recur, so they do not feed the predicted dates.

- Mgp Ingredients Inc has historically paid quarterly, across 84 payments since December 1988.
- How much does MGPI pay per share?
- The most recent payment was $0.12 per share, with an ex-date of August 14, 2026. At that rate and frequency the indicated annual dividend is $0.48 a share. This is the cash amount, not a yield — a yield depends on the share price you pay.
