Bio-Techne Corporation dividend income is modest by design: TECH pays $0.32 per share annually, a yield of 0.44% at current prices. Dividends are paid quarterly, with the next ex-dividend date on August 24, 2026, and the last payment of $0.08 per share. The company develops and manufactures life science reagents, instruments, and diagnostic products, serving research, diagnostics, and bioprocessing markets worldwide. With a beta of 1.295, TECH stock carries above-average price volatility, making it a better fit for investors prioritizing dividend growth potential over immediate income.
Bio-Techne Corporation pays out 27.6% of earnings as dividends, a payout ratio classified as conservative (below 40%). That low payout leaves substantial earnings retained within the business, which manufactures biological reagents, diagnostic assays, and proteomic analytical tools across two operating segments. Bio-Techne Corporation dividend safety benefits from that earnings cushion, though the beta of 1.295 reflects meaningful price swings that could affect investor experience even if the dividend itself remains intact. No data in the available history shows a dividend cut.
Bio-Techne Corporation dividend history shows a CAGR of 1.2% per year from 2011 to 2025. Per-share payments grew from $0.2725 to $0.3200 over that period (2026 is a partial year and excluded from the growth calculation). The largest annual increase in the window was 6.1% in 2013. Growth is slow. After reaching $0.32 in 2015, the annual dividend held flat through 2025, meaning the 1.2% CAGR reflects a decade of no nominal increases for income investors.
| Period | CAGR | From | To |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Year | 0.0% | $0.32 (2022) | $0.32 (2025) |
| 5-Year | 0.0% | $0.32 (2020) | $0.32 (2025) |
| 10-Year | 0.0% | $0.32 (2015) | $0.32 (2025) |
TECH stock fits dividend investors who value payout safety over income level. The yield of 0.44% is low (below 2%), and at 1.2% annual growth over 14 years, the dividend has barely kept pace with inflation. The 5-year average yield of 0.43% confirms this is not a yield anomaly; it is simply how TECH is priced. What investors get is a 27.6% payout ratio that leaves the dividend well-covered, and 16 consecutive years of dividend increases. The trade-off is clear: very little current income and very slow growth, in exchange for a payout that the earnings structure can support.
