The Hewlett Packard Group does pay a dividend to its shareholders. The last dividend paid by the group was $0.89 per share. Moreover, the company has paid its shareholders without interruption since 1980. This payment is made four times a year, as is the case for all American companies listed on the stock exchange in March, June, September and December. The current yield on this stock is 2.36%. Of course, this dividend changes every year and is not guaranteed by the company. To receive it, you must hold HP shares before the ex-dividend date.
