Murphy USA Inc.'s dividend schedule
Murphy USA Inc. has paid quarterly across the 5 years of records we hold, with the most recent ex-date on August 24, 2026. Its ex-dates usually land in the middle of the month.
Across the 24 announcements we have on file, MUSA declares a dividend a median of 11 days before the shares go ex. That is roughly how much notice MUSA gives you before each ex-date, once its board declares. The cash then arrives about 14 days after the ex-date.
Increases have a season: of the 3 raises in our record, most take effect with the November payment, so that is the ex-date to watch for a change in the amount. The most recent was 1.6%, effective with the August 2026 ex-date.
