Apollo Global Management, Inc. dividend reflects the firm's position as a major alternative asset manager, spanning credit, private equity, and real estate across global markets. APO currently yields 1.7%, with a trailing annual dividend rate of $2.1450 per share paid quarterly. The next ex-dividend date is August 19, 2026. With a beta of 1.514, APO stock carries above-average price volatility, making it a better fit for dividend investors who can tolerate swings in share price in exchange for income from a scaled alternatives platform.
Apollo Global Management, Inc. pays out 53.4% of earnings as dividends, a payout ratio classified as moderate (40–60%). That level leaves a meaningful buffer, and the firm's diversified revenue streams across credit strategies, private equity transactions, and real estate funds provide multiple sources of income to support the payout. Apollo Global Management, Inc. dividend safety faces its clearest pressure from the stock's beta of 1.514: earnings in alternative asset management can move sharply with market conditions, and a prolonged downturn in deal activity or credit markets could compress the income base that underpins the current payout.
Apollo Global Management, Inc. dividend history shows a CAGR of 3.0% per year from 2012 to 2025. The per-share annual dividend moved from $1.3500 to $1.9925 over that period (with 2026 a partial year, not used in the CAGR calculation). The largest annual increase in the window was 192.6% in 2013, though the history also contains at least one year-over-year decline exceeding 5%, reflecting the variable nature of distributions from an alternatives-focused manager.
| Period | CAGR | From | To |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Year | +7.6% | $1.60 (2022) | $1.99 (2025) |
| 5-Year | -2.9% | $2.31 (2020) | $1.99 (2025) |
| 10-Year | +0.2% | $1.96 (2015) | $1.99 (2025) |
APO fits dividend investors who want exposure to a scaled alternative asset management business and can accept a low-yield, moderate-growth income profile. The current yield of 1.7% sits above the 5-year average of 1.46%, so income investors are getting slightly more than the historical norm right now. The yield classification is low (below 2%), which limits its appeal as a pure income play. The 53.4% payout ratio keeps the dividend on firm footing, but the 3.0% annual growth rate is slow. What an investor gets here is a dividend backed by a diversified alternatives platform; what they give up is meaningful yield.
