Home Depot has maintained and raised its dividend for four consecutive years despite record-low housing turnover, supported by robust free cash flow. In fiscal 2025, the company generated $12.65 billion in free cash flow, comfortably covering its $9.32 billion annual dividend payout. While shares have declined over the past year, the dividend yield remains attractive at about 3.2%. The key risk to this dividend's durability is a significant drop in free cash flow, which would force the company to either borrow or slow dividend increases. Investors should monitor free cash flow closely in upcoming reports to gauge the dividend's sustainability.
As of Oct 15, 2026 00:02 WIB, Home Depot shares trade at USD 292.64 on Pluang, showing a slight 0.43% decline over one day. The stock maintains a dividend yield of 3.17%, closely aligned with the article's reported 3.2%.
