QCRH — QCR Holdings, Inc.
QCR Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: QCRH) increased its quarterly dividend to $0.15 per share from $0.10, a 50% rise. The new rate equates to an annual dividend of $0.60 per share and a forward yield of 0.6% based on a share price of $99.98.
The ex-dividend date was Sept. 18, 2026. Investors who bought the shares on or after that date were not eligible for the associated quarterly distribution.
Recent financial backdrop
The increase follows an earlier step-up to the previous $0.10 quarterly rate in 2026. QCR Holdings’ published dividend history classifies its distributions as ordinary dividends and documents the prior quarterly rate. QCR Holdings dividend history
The higher payout also comes after a solid second quarter. QCR Holdings reported quarterly net income of $36.3 million and diluted earnings per share of $2.19, compared with $29.0 million and $1.71 a year earlier. The company highlighted loan growth, stronger low-income-housing tax-credit capital-markets revenue and improved asset quality among the period’s operating developments.

Headquartered in Moline, Illinois, QCR Holdings operates four wholly owned community-bank subsidiaries serving markets in Iowa, Illinois and Missouri. Its banks offer commercial and consumer banking as well as trust and wealth-management services. The company’s principal earnings engine is net interest income—the spread between income earned on loans, leases and securities and interest paid on deposits and borrowings.

What it means for income investors
The increase raises quarterly cash income per share by half, but the 0.6% forward yield remains modest. SmarterDividends assigns the payout a safety score of 93 out of 100, equivalent to an A grade. However, QCR Holdings has no recorded consecutive annual dividend-growth streak, so the latest action represents a sizable increase rather than the continuation of a multi-year pattern.
