Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company dividend currently yields 0.78%, backed by a business spanning servers, hybrid cloud, and networking infrastructure sold to enterprises and public sector clients worldwide. Over the trailing twelve months, HPE paid $0.5580 per share in dividends on a quarterly schedule, with the next ex-dividend date set for September 17, 2026. The forward annual rate stands at $0.57 per share. With a beta of 1.404, HPE stock carries above-average price volatility, making it a better fit for growth-and-income investors than those seeking a low-risk income stream.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company pays out 28.7% of earnings as dividends, a payout ratio classified as conservative (below 40%). That low payout leaves meaningful room to sustain and grow the dividend even if earnings face pressure, and HPE's broad portfolio of servers, GreenLake cloud services, and networking products serves commercial and large enterprise clients across multiple geographies. Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company dividend safety is further supported by the fact that no cut appears in the available history window, though the stock's beta of 1.404 signals that earnings can swing with broader market conditions, which is the primary data-supported risk to watch.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company dividend history shows a CAGR of 16.6% per year from 2016 to 2025. Per-share payments grew from $0.1338 in 2016 to $0.5325 in 2025 (2026 is a partial year and excluded from the growth calculation). The largest single-year jump was 80.8% in 2018, though growth has moderated considerably since then, with increases of roughly 1% to 2% in recent years.
| Period | CAGR | From | To |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Year | +3.5% | $0.48 (2022) | $0.53 (2025) |
| 5-Year | +2.1% | $0.48 (2020) | $0.53 (2025) |
| 10-Year | +32.5% | $0.03 (2015) | $0.53 (2025) |
HPE fits growth-and-income investors who want dividend growth from a large enterprise technology business and are willing to accept a low current yield in exchange for it. The current yield of 0.78% is classified as low (below 2%), and it sits well below the 5-year average yield of 2.47%, meaning buyers today are paying a higher price relative to the income HPE generates. The 28.7% payout ratio keeps the dividend well-covered. What an investor gets here is a nine-year streak of consecutive increases and a 16.6% annual growth rate. What they give up is meaningful current income.
