OAK BROOK, Ill., Sept. 18, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- On September 18, 2014, McDonald's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.85 per share of common stock payable on December 15, 2014, to shareholders of record at the close of business on December 1, 2014. This represents a 5% increase over the Company's previous quarterly dividend and brings the fourth quarter dividend payout to more than $800 million.
McDonald's President and CEO Don Thompson said, "McDonald's global growth priorities – providing great-tasting food and beverages, creating memorable experiences, offering unparalleled convenience and becoming an even more trusted brand – focus on what matters most to our customers and serve as the foundation to building our business over the long term. Today's dividend increase reflects the continued strength and sustainability of our cash flow and our commitment to enhancing shareholder value. We expect to return $18 to $20 billion to shareholders between 2014 and 2016 and have returned $3.2 billion year-to-date August toward that target."
McDonald's has raised its dividend each and every year since paying its first dividend in 1976. The new quarterly dividend of $0.85 per share is equivalent to $3.40 annually.
Upcoming Communications
