Semi-Annual Dividend Stocks

How This List Is Built

Companies that pay a dividend twice a year, ranked by market capitalization so the largest payers lead. A common cadence outside the US, especially in Europe and Asia.

We classify a stock as a semi-annual payer from its dividend payment frequency, then rank by market capitalization so the most significant names lead, with the trailing twelve month yield shown alongside. Refreshed nightly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which companies pay semi-annual dividends?

Semi-annual payment is the norm for many large companies in Europe, the UK, Japan, and Australia, often split into an interim and a final dividend. We classify each name from its actual payment history.

How is the yield calculated for two payments a year?

We sum the trailing twelve months of dividends and divide by the live price, so the yield is comparable regardless of how the payments are spaced across the year.
