Our predicted date is Friday, November 13. This is when we
expect Xylem Inc. to declare its next dividend, not when the stock goes
ex-dividend — we publish this estimate as early as about three months before the board is
expected to meet.
Xylem Inc. pays dividends quarterly. We hold 60 payments for it, going back to November 2011 — 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 XYL. 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.

Xylem Inc.'s dividend schedule
Xylem Inc. has paid quarterly across the 14 years of records we hold, with the most recent ex-date on August 27, 2026. Its ex-dates usually land in the last third of the month.
Across the 56 announcements we have on file, XYL declares a dividend a median of 13 days before the shares go ex. That is roughly how much notice XYL gives you before each ex-date, once its board declares. The cash then arrives about 29 days after the ex-date.
Increases have a season: of the 14 raises in our record, most take effect with the February payment, so that is the ex-date to watch for a change in the amount. The most recent was 7.5%, effective with the February 2026 ex-date.
