Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson (publ) dividend comes from one of the world's largest telecom infrastructure companies, supplying radio access networks, managed services, and cloud-based platforms to operators across more than a dozen global markets. The current yield stands at 3.01%, with a trailing annual dividend rate of $2.92 per share. ERIXF carries a beta of 0.521, meaning its price moves considerably less than the broader market, which suits income-focused investors who prioritize lower volatility. The next ex-dividend date is September 28, 2026.
Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson (publ) pays out 40.2% of earnings as dividends, a payout ratio classified as moderate (40-60%). That level leaves meaningful earnings headroom, and the company's mix of recurring managed services contracts and software-driven platforms for telecom operators provides a degree of demand continuity that supports Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson (publ) dividend safety. The most significant data-supported pressure point is that the dividend history contains at least one year-over-year decline exceeding 5%, showing the payout is not immune to cuts when business conditions deteriorate.
Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson (publ) dividend history shows a CAGR of 1.7% per year from 2009 to 2025. Per-share payments moved from $0.2214 to $0.2920 over that window (2026 is a partial year and excluded from the growth calculation). Growth has been uneven: the largest single-year jump was 48.7% in 2020, while the overall CAGR of 1.7% reflects years of decline that dragged the long-run average down sharply. Growth is slow, and income investors relying on dividend raises to offset inflation will find the pace underwhelming.
| Period | CAGR | From | To |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Year | +5.9% | $0.25 (2022) | $0.29 (2025) |
| 5-Year | +12.8% | $0.16 (2020) | $0.29 (2025) |
| 10-Year | -2.8% | $0.39 (2015) | $0.29 (2025) |
ERIXF fits income-focused investors who want exposure to global telecom infrastructure with below-average price volatility. The yield sits in the moderate (2-4%) range at 3.01%, which is above the stock's own 5-year average of 2.55%, meaning buyers today are locking in a yield that is historically elevated for this name. The trade-off is growth: a 1.7% CAGR over 16 years barely keeps pace with inflation, and the history includes dividend cuts. What an investor gets is a moderate, currently above-average yield backed by a 40.2% payout ratio. What they accept is slow growth and a history that is not cut-free.
