Linde (LIN) Rewards Shareholders With Quarterly Dividend Hike
Linde plc (LIN - Free Report) announced that it has got authorization from the board of directors to increase its quarterly dividend.
The new dividend of $1.39 per share, reflecting an increment of 9% from the prior quarter, will likely be paid on Mar 28 to shareholders of record on Mar 14. Thus, the leading global industrial gases and engineering company has increased quarterly dividend for 31 successive years. This reflects the company’s strong commitment to returning capital to shareholders. In fact, through dividend payments and share repurchases, Linde returned a handsome $6.4 billion to shareholders last year.
The consistency in returning capital to investors reflects the firm’s stable and robust business model. LIN’s bottom line is safeguarded by the diversity of its customer base and the minimum purchase volume required for contracts with large customers, effectively mitigating downside risks.
