As an owner of 60 shares of JNJ, the recent dividend increase adds $10.73 to my projected annual net dividend income.
I was expecting an increase of about 3%, so the announced raise was slightly above my expectations—and I'm happy to accept it.
This recent dividend increase marks the 11th consecutive raise I’ve received from JNJ since I acquired my shares in February 2015. Over this period, JNJ’s quarterly dividend has grown in line with expectations from $0.66 to $1.30. per share, reflecting a 97% increase.
The moment of writing, JNJ’s weight of my portfolio is about 1.21% and its share of future annual dividend income is approximately 0.91%.
Following this increase, my yield on cost is 5.32%.
