ex-dividend — we publish this estimate as early as about three months before the board is
expected to meet.

We hold 260 payments for it, going back to January 1962 — the full record is below, with what it has paid and when, and how far ahead of each ex-date it declares. We don't publish a predicted next ex-dividend date for PG. As soon as the company declares one it will appear at the top of this page; until then the record below is what we hold.

PROCTER & GAMBLE Co's dividend schedule
PROCTER & GAMBLE Co has paid quarterly across the 64 years of records we hold, with the most recent ex-date on July 24, 2026. Its ex-dates usually land in the middle of the month.
Across the 52 announcements we have on file, PG declares a dividend a median of 9 days before the shares go ex. That is roughly how much notice PG gives you before each ex-date, once its board declares. The cash then arrives about 27 days after the ex-date.
Increases have a season: of the 22 raises in our record, most take effect with the April payment, so that is the ex-date to watch for a change in the amount. The most recent was 3.0%, effective with the April 2026 ex-date.
