- Pays: nothing, currently. Intel's last dividend — $0.125 per share — went ex on August 7, 2024. The payout has been suspended since.
- Before the end: 128 quarterly dividends from October 1992 through August 2024 — 32 years without a miss.
- The two-step ending: first a cut of about 66% in May 2023 (from $0.365 to $0.125), then full suspension after August 2024 as the company poured cash into its foundry rebuild.
- Trailing 12 months: $0.00.
- If it returns: our radar checks this record continuously — a reinstated Intel dividend would appear on this chart the day it's declared.
Most sites bury the headline; here it is plainly: Intel does not pay a dividend right now. The record above is history, not current income. It remains one of tech's most instructive charts — three decades of steady growth, then a cut and a suspension inside eighteen months when the business turned capital-hungry.
Each point is one Intel dividend from October 1992 to August 2024 — and then the line stops. The stop is the story.

"Next expected" is estimated from INTC's recent payment rhythm — the fund announces exact dates shortly before each payout, and the data feed can lag a few days. You must own shares before the ex-dividend date to receive that payout; the cash typically arrives days later. See every fund's upcoming date on the live dividend calendar.
A real total-return estimate, assuming every payout was reinvested — including what happened to the share price. Before taxes and fees. Past performance does not predict the future.
Intel paid for 32 years — 128 consecutive quarters through the dot-com crash and 2008 — and the ending still took under two years: a 66% cut in May 2023, suspension after August 2024. The sequence is the textbook pattern of a payout dying (cut first, suspension after), and it happened not because Intel was failing to sell chips but because rebuilding its manufacturing edge consumed every spare dollar. Dividends lose to survival spending every time.
For the contrast, IBM — tech's other elder — cut in its 1990s crisis and then rebuilt a 30-year streak, the recovery path Intel bulls hope for. The compare tool shows both records; the semiconductor income alternative built on options is CHPY.

When Is INTC's Next Ex-Dividend Date?
INTC pays suspended — Intel has paid no dividend since August 2024. The exact date of each payout is announced by the fund only shortly beforehand, so no site can promise the next date — but the live schedule box above shows the most recent ex-dividend date and the expected window for the next one, computed from INTC's actual payment rhythm. Remember: you must own shares before the ex-dividend date to receive that payout.
The Answer People Search For
Intel does not currently pay a dividend. The last one — $0.125 per share — went ex-dividend on August 7, 2024. Everything below is the record of what came before: 128 quarterly payments across 32 years, from October 1992 to that final check, with zero dollars paid in the trailing twelve months.
Three Decades Up, Two Years Down
For most of its history Intel's chart was a model tech dividend: initiated in 1992, grown through the dot-com collapse and 2008, peaking at $0.365 per quarter. The unwinding was fast. May 2023 brought a 66% cut as margins compressed; the suspension followed after August 2024, freeing cash for the foundry buildout the company is betting its future on. Nothing in the prior 30 years of the chart predicted the ending — which is precisely the lesson income investors should take from it.
Watching for the Sequel
Dividend suspensions aren't always obituaries — IBM cut in its early-1990s crisis and went on to build tech's best raise streak. If Intel reinstates, the payment will land on this page's live chart the day it happens, and our cut & raise board will flag it. Until then, semiconductor income lives elsewhere — the option-fund route via CHPY, or the diversified-payer route via SCHD — and the compare tool prices both against holding INTC for the turnaround.
