Fortive Corporation dividend sits at a 0.42% yield, reflecting the company's focus on growth over income. FTV designs and manufactures industrial and healthcare technology products, with brands like Fluke, Accruent, and Landauer serving manufacturing, utilities, and clinical workflow markets. Trailing twelve-month payments total $0.25 per share, paid quarterly, with the next ex-dividend date on November 27, 2026. At a beta of 0.942, FTV stock moves close to the broader market, which appeals to dividend investors who prioritize capital preservation alongside modest income.
Fortive Corporation pays out 11.8% of earnings as dividends, a payout ratio classified as conservative (below 40%). That low payout reflects a business generating demand across essential industrial and healthcare applications, from instrument sterilization under the ASP brand to facility management software under Accruent. Fortive Corporation dividend safety benefits from the wide gap between earnings and the current payout, though FTV operates in competitive technology markets where product investment requirements can shift quickly.
Fortive Corporation dividend history shows a CAGR of 4.0% per year from 2017 to 2025. Per-share payments grew from $0.1764 to $0.2406 over that window (2026 is a partial year and excluded from the rate calculation). The largest annual increase in the window was 14.1% in 2021, while growth was flat in years like 2018 and 2022, when the dividend held at the prior year's level. For income investors, 4.0% annual growth is modest but has moved in one direction across eight consecutive years of increases.
| Period | CAGR | From | To |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Year | +4.4% | $0.21 (2022) | $0.24 (2025) |
| 5-Year | +5.4% | $0.19 (2020) | $0.24 (2025) |
FTV fits dividend investors who value earnings coverage over yield size. The yield is low (below 2%), currently at 0.42%, and that figure sits just below the 5-year average of 0.43%, so there is no meaningful yield expansion on offer. Eight consecutive years of dividend increases and an 11.8% payout ratio show a company that has room to keep raising the dividend without straining its financials. The trade-off is straightforward: an investor in Fortive Corporation stock accepts a very small income stream today in exchange for a payout that has grown steadily and carries minimal cut risk based on current data.
