Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: META) is scheduled to distribute its quarterly dividend on June 26.
The social media stock has demonstrated strong performance throughout 2025, driven by investor optimism around Meta’s bold push into artificial intelligence infrastructure and its expansion into new advertising channels.
META closed Wednesday’s session at $695.77, representing a 16% gain year-to-date and a 0.46% increase over the past week. The performance positions Meta among the top performers in the technology sector’s “Magnificent Seven” group.
Meta’s quarterly dividend is set at $0.525 per share, matching the previous quarter’s distribution. Shareholders holding 100 shares will receive $52.50 in dividend payments.
The ex-dividend date for this payout is June 16, 2025, meaning investors must own shares by this date to qualify for the dividend payment.
