Emerson Electric increased its quarterly dividend by 7% to $0.595 per share, marking its 71st consecutive year of dividend growth. Despite this, the stock's 30% rise this year has reduced its yield to about 1.39%, challenging income-focused investors. The company maintains a payout ratio near 33%, supported by strong free cash flow and buybacks, with guidance for 10% EPS growth. While Emerson remains a solid dividend grower, its valuation at 24 times forward earnings suggests it is priced for quality rather than high current yield.
Emerson Electric shares trade at USD 170.03 on Pluang, with a dividend yield of 1.3%, slightly below the article's noted yield of about 1.39%. The stock is down 0.24% on the day, reflecting modest market movement as of Nov 05, 2026 20:11 WIB.
