Does QXO (QXO) pay a dividend?
Yes. QXO distributes a dividend yielding roughly its stated rate as of August 2026, paid once a year. The most recent payment on record was $26.18 per share, with an ex-dividend date of June 5, 2024.
Reading an early roll-up is different from reading a mature distributor. Reported revenue jumps as acquisitions close, so pro-forma or full-year figures that include a deal for only part of the year understate the run-rate, and management often points to combined-company revenue and adjusted EBITDA that assume pending deals are done. GAAP results can show losses from deal, financing and integration costs even when the underlying operations generate positive adjusted EBITDA, so it helps to watch adjusted EBITDA, leverage relative to that EBITDA, and how each deal is funded between cash, debt and stock. The stock typically trades at a premium to the assets it owns because investors are paying for the platform and the expectation of future dealmaking, which makes execution and the pace of accretive acquisitions the things that matter most.

Is the QXO dividend covered?
We do not have a payout ratio on record for QXO. The payout ratio, the share of earnings paid out as dividends, is the usual first check on whether a dividend has room to keep growing; you can find it on QXO's investor relations page or in your broker's fundamentals tab.
Coverage is the question worth asking before yield. A dividend is only as good as the earnings behind it, and the highest yields on any screen are often the ones closest to being cut. Walnut is informational and is not an investment adviser.
How the QXO dividend has changed
The latest payment of $26.18 per share compares with $1.60 in the equivalent payment a year earlier (August 17, 2023). We are not quoting a growth rate from those two figures, because a change that large usually means a share split or a gap in the stored history rather than a real raise.
A single year says little on its own. What dividend-growth investors track is the multi-year record: whether the payout has risen through a downturn, and whether the raises have kept pace with inflation. That record is on QXO's investor relations page.
What QXO's dividend means for you
- Income: set by the yield, which moves with the share price.
- Yield is a ratio, not a payment: it rises when the share price falls. A jump in yield without a raise in the dividend means the stock got cheaper, which may or may not be good news.
- Total return: for QXO the dividend is one part of return and price change is usually the larger part. Compare total return, not yield, when weighing it against another holding.
- Reinvest or take the cash: a DRIP compounds the position automatically; taking the cash gives you income now. Either way it is taxable in a taxable account.
- If you want more yield: dedicated dividend names and funds target higher, steadier payouts. See the best dividend stocks and best dividend ETFs.
How QXO dividends are taxed
Dividends from US common stock are usually qualified, which means they are taxed at long-term capital-gains rates rather than as ordinary income, as long as you held the shares for more than 60 days in the 121-day window around the ex-dividend date. Distributions from REITs and BDCs generally do not qualify and are taxed as ordinary income. Inside an IRA, Roth, or 401(k) none of this applies while the money stays in the account.

FAQ
Does QXO (QXO) pay a dividend?
+
Yes. QXO pays a dividend yielding roughly its current yield as of August 2026, paid once a year. The most recent payment on record was $26.18 per share with an ex-dividend date of June 5, 2024. Yields move with the share price, so verify the current figure with your broker or QXO's investor relations page before relying on it.
What is QXO's dividend yield?
+
About its current yield as of August 2026. 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.
How often does QXO pay its dividend?
+
QXO pays once a year. The most recent payment on record had an ex-dividend date of June 5, 2024. 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 QXO's investor relations page, because boards can change both the amount and the timing.
When is QXO's ex-dividend date?
+
The ex-dividend date recorded in our August 2026 data pull is June 5, 2024. 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. Check QXO's investor relations page for the next confirmed date.
Has QXO raised its dividend recently?
+
Yes. The latest payment of $26.18 per share is above the $1.60 paid in the same slot a year earlier. One raise is not a policy, though: check the multi-year record on QXO's investor relations page, since a long streak of increases is what dividend-growth investors actually look for.
Is QXO's dividend safe?
+
We do not have a payout ratio on record for QXO. The payout ratio, the share of earnings paid out as dividends, is the usual first check on whether a dividend has room to keep growing; you can find it on QXO's investor relations page or in your broker's fundamentals tab. 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.
Are QXO dividends qualified for tax purposes?
+
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.
Should I reinvest QXO dividends?
+
Most brokers offer automatic reinvestment (a DRIP) that puts each QXO 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.
Does QXO pay a dividend?
+
QXO does not currently pay a dividend on its common stock. The company reinvests its cash into acquisitions and growth as it builds out the roll-up. It does have a Series C convertible perpetual preferred stock, used to fund large deals, that carries a 4.75% preferred dividend, but that is separate from the common shares most investors buy. Always confirm the latest dividend status before relying on it.
