About 2.85% as of October 2026. On a $10,000 position that is roughly $285 of dividend income a year before tax. For context, the S&P 500 yields around 1.2%, so KHNGY yields meaningfully more than the broad market. A higher yield is not automatically better: it can reflect a falling share price as easily as a generous payout, so it is worth checking why the number is what it is.

Kuehne + Nagel International AG pays once a year. The most recent payment on record had an ex-dividend date of May 11, 2026. To receive a given payment you have to own the shares before the ex-dividend date, not on the pay date. Confirm upcoming dates on KHNGY's investor relations page, because boards can change both the amount and the timing.

The ex-dividend date recorded in our October 2026 data pull is May 11, 2026. The ex-dividend date is the cutoff: buy on or after it and the seller keeps that payment, not you. Buying just before the ex-date to capture the dividend does not create free money, because the share price typically drops by roughly the dividend amount when the stock goes ex.

$1.53 per share in the most recent payment (ex-date May 11, 2026), which annualizes to about $1.53 per share. The equivalent payment a year earlier was $1.96. That is a change of -22.1% year over year.

Not in the last year. The latest payment of $1.53 per share is below the $1.96 paid a year earlier. A flat dividend is not necessarily a warning sign, but it does mean the income is losing ground to inflation.

Kuehne + Nagel International AG paid out about 84% of its earnings as dividends, so the dividend absorbs nearly all earnings. There is little cushion at that level: if earnings fall, the company has to fund the payout from cash or debt, or cut it. Check the cash-flow coverage and the trend in earnings before treating the yield as dependable. Nobody can guarantee a dividend: boards cut them, and a high yield is sometimes the market pricing in exactly that. Walnut is not an investment adviser and this is not a recommendation.

At a yield of about 2.85%, roughly $285 a year before tax, spread across 1 payment. That is a snapshot, not a promise: the amount changes when the company changes its payout, and your yield on cost is fixed at the price you paid, not at today's price.

Dividends from US common stock are usually qualified, meaning they are taxed at the lower long-term capital-gains rates, provided you held the shares for more than 60 days in the 121-day window around the ex-dividend date. Distributions from REITs, BDCs, and some pass-through structures are generally taxed as ordinary income instead. In an IRA or Roth the question does not arise. See our guide to how dividends are taxed. This is not tax advice.

Most brokers offer automatic reinvestment (a DRIP) that puts each KHNGY payment straight back into more shares, often fractional ones. Reinvesting compounds the position and is the standard choice when you do not need the cash yet. Taking the cash makes sense when you are spending the income or want to direct it elsewhere. Either way the dividend is taxable in a taxable account in the year it is paid, even if you never see the money.

Yes, once a year after the annual general meeting in spring. The dividend for 2025 was CHF 6.00 per share, equal to roughly CHF 1.20 per KHNGY ADR before tax. Switzerland withholds 35% at source, and US holders may be able to reclaim part of it under the US-Swiss treaty. The depositary converts the payment to dollars and may deduct fees.
