Oracle to pay dividends on January 23; Here’s how much 100 ORCL shares will earn

Oracle’s (NASDAQ: ORCL) first quarterly dividend payment of 2026 is coming this Friday, January 23.

More specifically, the technology company is scheduled to distribute a $0.5 per share dividend to shareholders with the ex-dividend date on January 9.

How much will 100 Oracle shares earn this week?

Investors holding 100 ORCL shares will collect $50 in dividend income this quarter. If the payouts remain consistent, the total yearly dividend will thus amount to $200. 

The quarterly distribution remains unchanged from the previous payment made on October 23, 2025, signaling a continued commitment to a consistent dividend policy.

However, if realized, the full-year total will reflect a slight increase compared to last year, as the company delivered a slightly lower dividend in the first quarter of 2025, namely $0.40.

Oracle dividend overview

Oracle’s other dividend metrics also point to a stable and still-developing passive income strategy. 

Indeed, the company maintains a quarterly payout and a conservative forward payout ratio of 18.72% and a 1.05% yield, although the latter is slightly lower than the sector average of 1.37.

Moreover, Oracle shares typically recover their price within about 9.2 days after going ex-dividend, which is a relatively quick rebound.

Oracle has also increased its dividend for one consecutive year, which further signals ongoing dedication to a progressive payout policy. 

All in all, while the yield is not among the highest in the market, the low payout ratio suggests ample room for future increases, provided earnings momentum continues.
