Why Dividends Matter
To qualify as a Dividend Achiever, a company must have increased its dividend payout each year for the last 10 or more consecutive years and meet certain liquidity requirements.
*Companies that pay regular dividends tend to be in better financial health and produce sustained earnings and revenue growth. *Dividends help identify well-managed companies; every dividend declaration represents a promise by management and a vote of confidence by the board of directors in the company's leadership. *Companies that consistently raise their dividend payouts also raise the bar on their own performance expectations. *Shares of dividend-paying companies possess built-in value that makes them generally more resilient in down markets, with solid appreciation potential during earnings-driven market upturns — with less price volatility.
