HP Inc. pays a 5.42% dividend yield, making it one of the higher-yielding names in the technology sector. The company sells personal computers, printers, and printing supplies to consumers, businesses, and institutions worldwide through its Personal Systems and Printing divisions. HPQ pays dividends quarterly, with a trailing annual rate of $1.1894 per share and a next ex-dividend date of September 9, 2026. A beta of 1.212 means the stock moves more than the broader market, so this suits dividend investors who can tolerate some price volatility in exchange for above-average income.
HP Inc. pays out 42.8% of earnings as dividends, a payout ratio classified as moderate (40-60%). That level leaves meaningful earnings headroom, and demand for printing supplies and personal computing hardware across HP Inc.'s commercial and institutional client base provides a broad revenue foundation. The most data-supported pressure point on HP Inc. dividend safety is the beta of 1.212, which reflects above-average share price sensitivity that can affect total return even when the payout itself holds.
HP Inc. dividend history shows a CAGR of 13.4% per year from 2012 to 2025. The per-share annual dividend grew from $0.2342 to $1.1670 over that window (2026 is a partial year and excluded from the growth calculation). The smallest annual increase in the window was 4.5% in 2025, which shows growth has slowed from the 41.7% peak recorded in 2016.
| Period | CAGR | From | To |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Year | +4.8% | $1.01 (2022) | $1.17 (2025) |
| 5-Year | +10.1% | $0.72 (2020) | $1.17 (2025) |
| 10-Year | +12.6% | $0.36 (2015) | $1.17 (2025) |
HPQ fits dividend investors who prioritize yield over rapid income growth. The current yield is classified as high (above 4%), and at 5.42% it sits well above the 5-year average of 4.73%, meaning buyers today are locking in a yield that is elevated relative to the stock's own recent history. Twenty-four consecutive years of dividend increases add a degree of durability to that income. The trade-off is straightforward: growth has decelerated to low single digits in recent years, and a beta above 1.2 means the share price can swing sharply. HP Inc. stock delivers meaningful current income from a mature technology business, but investors accept slower future dividend growth and above-average price volatility to get it.
