Brown & Brown, Inc. dividend income comes from one of the largest independent insurance brokers in the United States, operating across retail, wholesale, and specialty program segments. BRO currently pays $0.66 per share annually, with a quarterly frequency and an upcoming ex-dividend date of August 12, 2026. The current yield sits at 0.94%. With a beta of 0.581, BRO stock moves well below the broader market, which suits income investors who prioritize low volatility over high yield.
Brown & Brown, Inc. pays out 18.3% of earnings as dividends, a payout ratio classified as conservative (below 40%). That low retention of earnings reflects a business generating fee-based revenue across property and casualty, professional liability, and specialty program lines, none of which require the company to pay claims directly. Brown & Brown, Inc. dividend safety benefits from that brokerage model, though any meaningful contraction in commercial insurance demand or premium volumes would reduce the commission revenue that supports the payout.
Brown & Brown, Inc. dividend history shows a CAGR of 4.6% per year from 2012 to 2025. Per-share payments grew from $0.3125 to $0.615 over that window (2026 is a partial year and excluded from the rate calculation). The largest annual increase in the window was 13.9% in 2025, though the history also contains at least one year-over-year decline exceeding 5%, so growth has not been linear.
| Period | CAGR | From | To |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Year | +13.4% | $0.42 (2022) | $0.61 (2025) |
| 5-Year | +12.1% | $0.35 (2020) | $0.61 (2025) |
| 10-Year | +3.1% | $0.45 (2015) | $0.61 (2025) |
BRO stock fits dividend investors who value low payout risk and below-market volatility over immediate income. The yield is low (below 2%), currently at 0.94%, which is already above the stock's own 5-year average of 0.69%, so the current entry point offers slightly more income than the historical norm. Growth has averaged 4.6% per year, which is real but not fast. The trade-off is straightforward: an 18.3% payout ratio leaves the dividend well protected, but the yield itself will not satisfy investors who need meaningful current income from their holdings.
