Baker Hughes Company pays a $0.92 annual dividend, supported by a business spanning oilfield equipment, drilling services, and industrial energy technology. The Baker Hughes Company dividend currently yields 1.62%, placing it in the low-yield tier for energy sector income investors. BKR pays quarterly, with the last dividend of $0.23 per share and an upcoming ex-dividend date of August 7, 2026. A beta of 1.035 means BKR stock moves roughly in line with the broader market, making it a fit for dividend investors who can tolerate energy sector cyclicality.
Baker Hughes Company pays out 29.6% of earnings as dividends, a payout ratio classified as conservative (below 40%). That low payout leaves substantial room to maintain the dividend even if earnings from its Oilfield Services & Equipment or Industrial & Energy Technology segments face pressure. Baker Hughes Company dividend safety is further supported by the breadth of its business, which spans upstream drilling services, gas compression equipment, and aftermarket support across industrial and energy customers. The most significant data-supported risk is sector cyclicality: energy equipment and services revenue can swing sharply with oil and gas activity levels.
Baker Hughes Company dividend history shows a CAGR of 2.9% per year from 2012 to 2025. The per-share annual dividend grew from $0.60 to $0.92 over that window (2026 is a partial year and excluded from the CAGR calculation, Baker Hughes Company dividend 2026 data remains incomplete). Growth is slow. The dividend held flat at $0.72 from 2019 through 2021 before resuming increases, and the history window contains at least one year-over-year decline exceeding 5%.
| Period | CAGR | From | To |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Year | +8.0% | $0.73 (2022) | $0.92 (2025) |
| 5-Year | +5.0% | $0.72 (2020) | $0.92 (2025) |
| 10-Year | +3.1% | $0.68 (2015) | $0.92 (2025) |
BKR stock fits dividend investors who prioritize payout safety over income size. The yield is low (below 2%) and currently sits below the 5-year average of 2.14%, so income-focused investors get less yield than the stock's own recent history has offered. Seven consecutive years of dividend increases show a commitment to growth, but at 2.9% per year, that growth barely keeps pace with inflation. What BKR offers is a conservative 29.6% payout ratio backed by a diversified energy technology business. The trade-off is clear: low current income in exchange for a well-covered dividend with room to grow.
