What the record shows
What the record shows: Healthcare stock CI has paid quarterly dividends since 1982. Over the past year, CI paid $6.19 per share and yielded 2.28%. The latest payment was $1.56 per share, unchanged from the previous payment, while the recent average rose 1.6% from the prior average.
CI’s annual dividend total rose in each year from 2022 through 2025, moving from $4 per share in 2021 to $6.04 in 2025.
The 2020 total had an unusual payment count because ex-dates fell into a neighboring year, so the annual change reflects timing rather than a rate change. Average payment then moved from $0.04 to $1. CI’s annual dividend growth streak spans five years, its last annual cut was in 2004, and its dividend safety grade is B.

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.
