Equity income investors seek companies with significant and growing dividends.

Sometimes companies fall on hard times or change dividend philosophy, in which case the dividend investor should consider culling stocks of those companies from the portfolio.

We have developed a list of 427 companies with market-cap over $500 million for which the total dividends for the last four quarters are less than the total dividends for the prior four quarters.

We also developed a list of 309 companies in the same size range for which the total dividends for the last four quarters are greater than the total dividends for the prior four quarters.

The lists are available for download without charge on our main site for registered readers (login or register).

The Excel data files pressent the following fields:

  • Company name
  • Ticker
  • Sector
  • Industry
  • Market-cap
  • YOY Div 1 Qtr
  • YOY Div 2 Qtrs
  • YOY Div 3 Qtrs
  • YOY Div 4 Qtrs
  • EPS Growth 12 mo
  • EPS-Continuing Growth 12 mo.

This information is available subject the terms and conditions in our standard Legal Notice.

We hope you find the information helpful.
