Salesforce, Inc. dividend marks a relatively new chapter for a company better known for its Customer 360 platform, Slack, and enterprise software dominance. CRM pays a quarterly dividend of $0.44 per share, totaling $1.7120 annually, with the next ex-dividend date on June 11, 2026. The current yield sits at 0.67%. At a beta of 1.152, this is not a low-volatility income play, making it better suited for investors who prioritize dividend growth potential over immediate income.
Salesforce, Inc. pays out 15.7% of earnings as dividends, a payout ratio classified as conservative (below 40%). That low payout leaves substantial room to sustain and grow the dividend, supported by a broad enterprise software business spanning sales automation, customer service, analytics via Tableau, and integration through MuleSoft. The primary pressure on Salesforce, Inc. dividend safety is the company's beta of 1.152, which reflects above-average price volatility that income-focused investors should weigh against the otherwise low payout.
Salesforce, Inc. dividend history shows a CAGR of 4.0% per year from 2024 to 2025. The per-share annual dividend grew from $1.6000 to $1.6640 over that period (2026 data is partial and excluded from this calculation, per Salesforce, Inc. dividend 2026 reporting conventions). The smallest annual increase in the window was 4.0% in 2025, which is also the only increase on record given the short history available.
CRM stock fits dividend investors who are comfortable accepting a low yield in exchange for a very conservative payout structure. The yield of 0.67% falls squarely in the low (below 2%) classification, and with no 5-year average yield available for comparison, the current figure stands on its own as a modest income offering. Salesforce, Inc. has grown its dividend at 4.0% annually, which at least keeps pace with typical inflation, but three years of dividend history and zero consecutive years of increases mean the program is still unproven by income investor standards. The trade-off is clear: a financially uncrowded payout from a large enterprise software business, offset by a yield that delivers little immediate income.
