MPC's last 4 regular dividends were paid in March, June, September and December. Companies tend to keep the same months year after year, though the exact dates move by a few days.

As of Nov 6, 2026, the next MPC ex-dividend date on record is Nov 18, 2026, with a pay date of Dec 10, 2026. To receive the dividend you must own MPC shares before this date.

The ex-dividend date is the cut-off for owning a stock in time to receive its next dividend. If you buy MPC on or after the ex-dividend date, the seller — not you — receives the upcoming payment. Buy before it and you're entitled to the dividend.

You must own MPC before the ex-dividend date — i.e. buy at least one trading day earlier. Since the move to T+1 settlement, the record date and ex-dividend date now fall on the same day, so the ex-date is the deadline that matters.

As of Nov 6, 2026, MPC's most recent dividend was $1.0000 per share, paid on a quarterly basis — about $4.40 per share annually, a forward yield of roughly 1.17%.
