Each season of earnings leaves a set of dividends, and this one we are moving now was no exception. There were two companies among the lifts this season that march their benefits for so long and are often among the very rare market dividends of the market. In other words, they performed a dividend dance at least once each year for at least 50 consecutive years.
This is not a simple deed. Both Dover(NYSE: Do and The Illinois tool is running(Nyse: itw) Not only should they have reached this status, but also for retaining their lifting strips. Let’s take advantage of their latest bumps and see whether both are they buying both.

Dovers increased the annual dividend in early August. Although it was not one of the largest lifts in the company – less than 1% higher than its predecessor, up to a quarter – $ 0.52 per share rate – it was meaningful because it noted 70 (!) Years in a row that the payment was reinforced.
Such a miserable elevation may mistakenly indicate that the industrial conglomerate is struggling. At the end of July, she announced the results of the second quarter that showed growth in the right places, and income and profitability increased at healthy rates. The company’s revenue increased by 5% per year to $ 2.05 billion, and its non -GAAP (adjusted) net income increased from 16% to $ 337 million.
Dover Management has recently focused on increasing its larger margins, while aggressively translating costs-so that double-digit profitability.
The company also chooses to grow when purchased. In early August, she announced that she had purchased fuel monitoring products IQ website Fueling Sitering, which was folded into its new owner’s fuel Solutions Unit.
Although Dovers are a well -managed company, I do not think that everything that is convincing as an investment, despite its dividend king’s status. These days, its dividend policy is not very generous, so the yield is low (less than 1.2%), and I have no idea that the company will eventually announce such impressive growth rates on the main grounds. I would sit aside with these stocks.
New Dividend of Dovers on September 15 Will be served on investors from August 29.
The next lifting of dividends after profit came from the Job’s colleagues industrial stock, Illinois tools. When August began, ITW increased its quarterly payment by 7%or $ 0.11 for $ 1.61.
Although the name of the company means that it is just a tool manufacturer, in fact, like Dovers, a fairly well diversified business that operates in several industries. These include cars, test and measurement electronics, food equipment and polymers.
It is not easy to discipline so many different growth elements, and the latest ITW quarter figures reflect it. In the second quarter, revenue increased by only 1% per year to $ 4.1 billion, and the adjusted net income has also fallen to about $ 755 million. A slightly happier development was a leadership, increasing by less than 2025. GAAP earning guidelines.
Based on income recommendations that the highest line should rise 3%this year, itw revealed that it is likely to last ”Estimated pricing steps that are expected to compensate for the impact of tariff costs and current foreign exchange rates; “It sounds like a defense regime company, not a business, confidently trying to the rapidly growing future.
This means that the ITW dividends are relatively large as the new benefit receives the theoretical 2.5% for the final final price. This, plus leadership’s propensity to take generous dividends, increases every year, and becomes excellent income. However, I would not very much expect the company to grow its foundations significantly.
The upcoming ITW benefit is scheduled to be distributed on October 10. Records from September 30th. Will be suitable for dividends.
