Henkel AG & Co. KGaA dividend investors are looking at a 148-year-old German industrial and consumer company spanning adhesive technologies, laundry products, and hair care brands sold across Europe, North America, and Asia Pacific. The current yield is 2.75%, with a trailing annual dividend rate of $2.07 per share. HENKY pays annually, with the next ex-dividend date on April 29, 2026, and the last dividend amount at $0.593 per share. A beta of 0.538 points to low price volatility, which suits income investors who prioritize capital stability over aggressive growth.
Henkel AG & Co. KGaA pays out 44.0% of earnings as dividends, a payout ratio classified as moderate (40-60%). That level leaves meaningful earnings headroom, supported by demand across everyday product categories including detergents, dishwashing products, and adhesives used in packaging and construction. Henkel AG & Co. KGaA dividend safety gets a reasonable mark from the payout ratio alone, but the dividend history does show multiple year-over-year declines between 2018 and 2024, which is the most significant data-supported factor that income investors should weigh.
Henkel AG & Co. KGaA dividend history shows a CAGR of 8.3% per year from 2012 to 2025. Per-share payments grew from $0.255 to $0.571 over that window (2026 is a partial year and excluded from the CAGR calculation). The largest annual increase in the window was 43.3% in 2011, but the history also contains multiple year-over-year declines, and HENKY has only three consecutive years of dividend increases as of the current streak.
| Period | CAGR | From | To |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Year | +4.2% | $0.51 (2022) | $0.57 (2025) |
| 5-Year | +2.9% | $0.50 (2020) | $0.57 (2025) |
| 10-Year | +5.0% | $0.35 (2015) | $0.57 (2025) |
Henkel AG & Co. KGaA stock fits dividend investors who want moderate, recurring income from a business with broad product reach across adhesives, home care, and personal care categories. The yield sits at 2.75%, a moderate (2-4%) level that is slightly below the 5-year average of 2.88%, so buyers today are not getting a historically elevated entry point. The 44.0% payout ratio supports the current payment, but the history of periodic cuts and flat years means income growth is not guaranteed year to year. What investors get is low price volatility (beta 0.538) and a payout that is not stretched; what they accept is a yield that is modest and a growth record that has been uneven.
