Nvidia to pay dividends next month; here’s how much investors will receive

Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) will pay its next quarterly cash dividend of $0.25 per share on October 1, 2026, to shareholders of record on September 10, 2026.

Investors holding 100 NVDA shares in their portfolio as of the ex-dividend date will therefore receive $25 on October 1. As such, the payment represents no change from the previous one issued on June 26.

Investors looking to generate $100 from the next payment would thus need to hold 400 shares by September 10.

At the last NVDA share closing price of $220.78 on August 31, buying 400 shares would require an investment of approximately $88,312.

Next Nvidia stock dividend is coming on October 1

The chipmaker has already returned approximately $26 billion to shareholders through shares repurchased and cash dividends during the second quarter of fiscal 2027, according to an official press release.

As of the end of the second quarter, the company had approximately $99 billion remaining under its share repurchase authorization.

Nvidia currently has a forward dividend yield of around 0.46% and a forward payout ratio of approximately 6.44%, meaning the company distributes only a small share of its earnings through dividends. However, the company has now raised its dividend for three consecutive years, showing commitment to shareholder returns.

All in all, Nvidia remains primarily a growth stock, with its investment appeal closely tied to the continued expansion of artificial intelligence (AI) demand. Indeed, the chipmaker reported stronger-than-expected fiscal second-quarter results on August 26. Specifically, revenue jumped 106% year over year to $96.2 billion, while adjusted earnings per share rose 120% to $2.22.

For the third quarter, management expects revenue of approximately $108 billion, potentially marking the company’s first quarter with sales above the $100 billion threshold. The company also projects roughly 70% revenue growth for fiscal 2028, supported by continued AI infrastructure spending from hyperscalers, enterprises, and cloud providers.
