Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) is paying its next quarterly dividend on December 26, 2025, when shareholders as of December 4, 2025, will receive $0.01 per share. 

The dividend translates to a forward annual yield of 0.02%, based on Nvidia’s current share price of $182.41 and a forward payout ratio of 0.53%.

How much will 100 Nvidia shares earn?

Investors holding 100 NVDA shares can thus look forward to $1 this quarter, or $4 in total this year, provided they invested prior to March 12, 2025.

Overall, 2025 has seen a 17.65% increase in the dividend amount paid compared to 2024, when only $0.004 per share was issued in Q1.

The following dividend is estimated to come on March 27, 2026, again at $0.01, implying no changes from this quarter and signaling continued stability in the company’s dividend policy.

While Nvidia’s yield remains modest compared to some of its peers in the technology sector, such as Google (NASDAQ: GOOGL), which pays $0.21 per share, the consistency of Nvidia’s dividends over the past decade highlights the company’s steady approach to shareholder returns. 

Moreover, dividends are not the primary channel through which Nvidia returns value to investors. Specifically, the company continues to prioritize share buybacks over dividends, returning far more capital through repurchases as it reinvests aggressively into artificial intelligence (AI) and gaming. This year alone, the company allocated over $110 billion to such programs. 

Accordingly, income-oriented investors tend to view the quarterly payments as a minor bonus complemented by the chipmaker’s strong stock performance and long-term growth potential rather than a primary source of returns.
