Erie Indemnity Company dividend history spans over three decades, backed by a business that manages insurance services for the Erie Insurance Exchange across the United States. ERIE currently pays $5.7525 per share annually, with dividends distributed quarterly and the next ex-dividend date set for October 5, 2026. The current yield sits at 2.41%. With a beta of 0.305, ERIE stock moves far less than the broader market, which appeals to income investors who prioritize low volatility over high yield.
Erie Indemnity Company pays out 45.6% of earnings as dividends, a payout ratio classified as moderate (40–60%). That level leaves meaningful room between the dividend and earnings, and ERIE's role providing recurring issuance, renewal, and underwriting services for the Erie Insurance Exchange creates a business tied to ongoing policy activity rather than one-time transactions. Erie Indemnity Company dividend safety gets its clearest test from the fact that the payout has not required earnings to stretch thin. The main pressure point is that the company operates as a managing attorney-in-fact, meaning its revenue depends on the volume and profitability of the Exchange it serves, a structure that concentrates business risk in a single relationship.
Erie Indemnity Company dividend history shows a CAGR of 7.3% per year from 2006 to 2025. Per-share payments grew from $1.44 in 2006 to $5.46 in 2025 (with 2026 partial year data not included in this calculation). The largest annual increase in the window was 133.2% in 2012, which skews the long-run average upward. The data also includes at least one year-over-year decline exceeding 5%, so the growth path has not been linear.
| Period | CAGR | From | To |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Year | +7.1% | $4.44 (2022) | $5.46 (2025) |
| 5-Year | -1.4% | $5.86 (2020) | $5.46 (2025) |
| 10-Year | +4.7% | $3.45 (2015) | $5.46 (2025) |
ERIE stock fits dividend investors who want moderate, growing income from a low-volatility financial services business. The current yield of 2.41% falls in the moderate (2–4%) range and sits above the 5-year average yield of 2.0%, meaning today's entry point offers more income than the historical norm. Four consecutive years of dividend increases and a 7.3% CAGR over the long run show a commitment to growth, though the streak is short and the history includes at least one decline. The trade-off is straightforward: Erie Indemnity Company offers a below-market beta of 0.305 and a covered payout, but income investors seeking high current yield will find the 2.41% limiting.
