PCG pays dividends quarterly, with a trailing annual rate of $0.1750 per share and an ex-dividend date of June 30, 2026.

Dividend Safety

PG&E Corporation pays out 11.8% of earnings as dividends, a payout ratio classified as conservative (below 40%). That leaves substantial earnings coverage for the current payment level, supported by the company's role as a regulated utility providing essential electricity and natural gas services. PG&E Corporation dividend safety faces its most visible pressure from the dividend's own history: the payout was cut sharply between 2017 and 2023, and the current $0.1750 annual rate sits far below the pre-cut levels, meaning any return to prior income levels would require years of continued increases.

PG&E Corporation (PCG) Dividend Growth Rate, CAGR, and History

PG&E Corporation dividend history shows a CAGR of -8.6% per year from 2000 to 2025. Per-share, that means the dividend moved from $1.2000 to $0.1250 over that span (with 2026 a partial year). The largest annual increase in the window was 127.3% in 2025, reflecting recovery from near-zero payments rather than organic growth from a healthy base.

Is PG&E Corporation a Good Dividend Stock?

PCG stock fits dividend investors who want low price volatility from a regulated utility and can accept a low current income yield. The yield classification is low (below 2%), and at 1.03% today it sits well above the 5-year average of 0.37%, which reflects the recent restart of meaningful payments after years of minimal distributions. The payout ratio of 11.8% means the dividend is well-covered, but the long-term CAGR of -8.6% is a hard number to overlook. What an investor gets here is a low-volatility utility with a recovering dividend; what they accept is a yield that delivers little income in absolute terms and a growth record shaped by a major historical cut.

Is PG&E Corporation dividend safe?
