Does Suzano (SUZ) pay a dividend?
Yes. Suzano distributes a dividend yielding roughly 0.01% as of August 2026, paid once a year. The most recent payment on record was $0.0010 per share, with an ex-dividend date of May 4, 2026. Annualized, that is about $0.0000 per share.
A mid-single-digit earnings multiple on a company with a record sales year usually means the market is pricing the cycle rather than the quarter, and trailing net income of about ~R$11.4 billion includes non-cash currency gains that will not repeat in the same direction. Enterprise value including net debt is roughly ~$23 billion against an equity value of about ~$10.3 billion, so the debt is a larger claim on the business than the stock is. Both the multiple and the yield are functions of a pulp price that Suzano publishes but does not control.

Is the SUZ dividend covered?
Suzano paid out about 13% of its earnings as dividends, so the payout is very well covered. A low ratio means the dividend has plenty of room and the company is keeping most of its profit to reinvest or buy back stock, which is also why the yield is modest.
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 SUZ dividend has changed
The latest payment of $0.0010 per share compares with $0.33 in the equivalent payment a year earlier (December 18, 2024). 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 SUZ's investor relations page.
What SUZ's dividend means for you
- Income: about $1 a year per $10,000 invested, before tax.
- 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 SUZ 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 SUZ 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. Full detail is in how dividends are taxed. This is not tax advice.
The bottom line on the SUZ dividend
Suzano (SUZ) pays about 0.01%, or roughly $0.0000 per share a year. At that level the dividend is a modest supplement rather than the reason to own it: the case rests on total return.

FAQ
Does Suzano (SUZ) pay a dividend?
+
Yes. Suzano pays a dividend yielding roughly 0.01% as of August 2026, paid once a year. The most recent payment on record was $0.0010 per share with an ex-dividend date of May 4, 2026. That works out to a forward annual rate of about $0.0000 per share. Yields move with the share price, so verify the current figure with your broker or SUZ's investor relations page before relying on it.
What is SUZ's dividend yield?
+
About 0.01% as of August 2026. On a $10,000 position that is roughly $1 of dividend income a year before tax. For context, the S&P 500 yields around 1.2%, so SUZ yields meaningfully less 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.
How often does SUZ pay its dividend?
+
Suzano pays once a year. The most recent payment on record had an ex-dividend date of May 4, 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 SUZ's investor relations page, because boards can change both the amount and the timing.
When is SUZ's ex-dividend date?
+
The ex-dividend date recorded in our August 2026 data pull is May 4, 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. Check SUZ's investor relations page for the next confirmed date.
Has Suzano raised its dividend recently?
+
Not in the last year. The latest payment of $0.0010 per share is below the $0.33 paid a year earlier. A flat dividend is not necessarily a warning sign, but it does mean the income is losing ground to inflation.
Is SUZ's dividend safe?
+
Suzano paid out about 13% of its earnings as dividends, so the payout is very well covered. A low ratio means the dividend has plenty of room and the company is keeping most of its profit to reinvest or buy back stock, which is also why the yield is modest. 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.
How much would I earn in dividends from a $10,000 position in SUZ?
+
At a yield of about 0.01%, roughly $1 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.
Are SUZ 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 SUZ dividends?
+
Most brokers offer automatic reinvestment (a DRIP) that puts each SUZ 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 SUZ pay a dividend?
+
It pays, but irregularly rather than on a fixed quarterly schedule. Recent distributions work out to roughly ~$0.19 per ADR annually, a yield near ~2.3%, and the board approved interim dividends of about ~R$1.117 per share in December 2025 plus a small additional amount at the April 2026 annual meeting. Brazilian dividends have historically not been subject to withholding tax, while interest on capital distributions are taxed at ~15%, so the form of the payment affects what reaches a US account.
