Fidelity Contrafund K dividend investors are looking at a fund that seeks out undervalued companies, both domestic and international, using fundamental analysis to identify stocks the market has not yet fully priced. The current yield stands at 4.14%, with a trailing annual dividend rate of $1.1320 per share. The next ex-dividend date is February 6, 2026, and the last dividend paid was $0.0420 per share. With a beta of 1.076, FCNKX tracks slightly above the broader market in volatility, making it a fit for dividend investors comfortable with equity-level price swings in exchange for above-average income.
Fidelity Contrafund K pays out dividends as a fund, so a traditional payout ratio is not applicable (fund/ETF). The fund's distributions are tied to the realized gains and income generated by its equity portfolio, which spans both growth and value-oriented stocks selected through fundamental analysis of financial strength and industry standing. Fidelity Contrafund K dividend safety is subject to the performance of its underlying holdings, and the history table shows at least one year-over-year decline exceeding 5%, which means payouts have not been immune to drawdowns in the past.
Fidelity Contrafund K dividend history shows a CAGR of 9.9% per year from 2009 to 2025. Per-share payments grew from $0.2810 to $1.2650 over that window (2026 is a partial year and excluded from this calculation). The largest single-year jump in the window was 1,461.8% in 2013, which reflects the lumpy, gain-driven nature of fund distributions rather than a steady corporate dividend policy.
| Period | CAGR | From | To |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Year | -8.7% | $1.66 (2022) | $1.26 (2025) |
| 5-Year | -1.2% | $1.34 (2020) | $1.26 (2025) |
| 10-Year | +2.9% | $0.95 (2015) | $1.26 (2025) |
FCNKX fits dividend investors who want above-average yield from an actively managed equity fund and can accept irregular year-to-year payment swings. The current yield of 4.14% is classified as high (above 4%), and it sits meaningfully above the fund's own 5-year average yield of 3.6%. The trade-off is real: distributions depend on realized portfolio gains, not a fixed corporate payout, so income is less predictable than a traditional dividend stock. What an investor gets is exposure to a fundamentals-driven, undervalued-company strategy with a yield that has historically outpaced its own average. What they accept is variability in annual payment amounts.
