Marten Transport Ltd's dividend schedule
Marten Transport Ltd has paid quarterly across the 15 years of records we hold, with the most recent ex-date on June 16, 2026. Its ex-dates usually land in the middle of the month.
Payment follows the ex-date by about 15 days, based on the announcements we hold for MRTN.
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.

- Do I need to own MRTN 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.

- Marten Transport Ltd has historically paid quarterly, across 64 payments since August 2010.

- The most recent payment was $0.06 per share, with an ex-date of June 16, 2026. At that rate and frequency the indicated annual dividend is $0.24 a share. This is the cash amount, not a yield — a yield depends on the share price you pay.
