Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) stock is back in the green in 2026 and the AI chipmaker is expected to pay its first dividend of the year later next month.
Specifically, NVDA investors will be paid out on March 27 and will receive a payout of $0.01 per share. The $0.01 per share figure marks no difference from the past quarter’s dividend issued on December 26, 2025.
How much will NVDA investors receive in dividends next month?
Accordingly, the annual payout sits at $0.04, meaning that shareholders holding 100 NVDA shares will receive precisely $1 in quarterly and $4 in yearly payments.
Compared to the previous year, this again represents no change at all, as all four quarters in 2025 came with a $0.01 per share dividend.
Nvidia dividends
Nvidia’s dividend is relatively small, underscoring the company’s priority on reinvesting profits for growth instead of emphasizing income payouts. The capital mostly goes into massive AI data centers and strategic partnerships.
With shares trading at approximately $191.55 at the time of writing, the company’s forward dividend yield stands at around 0.02%, well below the technology sector’s average yield of 1.37%. In comparison, for example, Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) yields roughly 0.95%, while Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) around 0.4%.
The company distributes dividends quarterly and has lifted its payout for two straight years, reflecting a measured yet steady commitment to rewarding shareholders.
At the same time, Nvidia’s forward payout ratio of roughly 0.40% highlights how modest the dividend remains relative to its earnings, preserving substantial flexibility for capital expenditures and long-term growth investments.
For investors considering dividend-capture tactics, Nvidia shares historically recover their ex-dividend price drop in about 2.5 days on average.
Taken together, Nvidia’s dividend functions more as a symbolic gesture of shareholder return than as a meaningful passive income play, particularly when stacked against some alternatives, such as dividend ETFs.
