What the record shows
AEM has paid quarterly since 1990, while its recent dividend has moved higher. Over the past year, distributions totaled $1.75 per share and produced a 0.94% trailing yield. The recent average payment rose 5.9% to $0.45 per share. The latest payment was unchanged from the preceding payment, holding the higher level.
Annual dividends rose in each year from 2020 through 2022, climbing from $0.95 to $1.60 per share. The annual total then remained at that level through 2025. This pattern shows a step-up over the earlier part of the period, followed by three consecutive years without further annual growth.
Across the last five years, two payments increased and none decreased. AEM therefore has no current annual dividend growth streak despite avoiding a payment cut during that span. The most recent annual cut occurred in 2014. AEM carries a dividend safety grade of A.

Amounts are per share and adjusted for stock splits, so early payments appear smaller than the cash paid at the time; a year with an extra or missing ex-date shows as a jump in the annual table. Change compares each regular payment with the previous regular one; payments of at least 2.5 times the recent median are treated as specials.
