Dow Inc. (ISIN US2605571031) is trading around $31.26 after a 35-cent quarterly dividend declaration on August 12, 2026, while Yahoo Finance shows a $22.58 billion market cap and a 4.58% forward yield. The same snapshot puts the latest close at $31.26 and the stock's 52-week range at $20.65 to $42.74.
Dividend detail
The dividend notice says the payout will be made on September 11, 2026, to shareholders of record on August 31, 2026. It also marks the 460th consecutive dividend paid by the company or its affiliates since 1912.
The stock's year-to-date return is 36.66%, and the one-year return is 57.62%, which leaves Dow ahead of the S&P 500 on both measures. That gap is useful context for a chemicals name that still carries a forward P/E of 10.96.
Latest reported numbers
Yahoo Finance's earnings and statistics pages show Q2 FY26 revenue of $12.09 billion, actual EPS of $1.44 versus an estimate of $1.28, and trailing revenue of $41.32 billion. Profitability remains mixed, with a profit margin of -3.13% and trailing diluted EPS of -1.87.
Those figures frame the stock's current setup better than a broad sector label: revenue came in above the estimate by $0.16 per share on the EPS line, while the balance sheet snapshot still shows $4.24 billion in cash and $237.62 million in levered free cash flow. Dow's next earnings date is listed as October 22, 2026.
Product angle
Dow's packaging and specialty plastics, industrial intermediates and performance materials businesses still anchor the story behind the stock. The company says it serves packaging, infrastructure, mobility and consumer applications across a global manufacturing footprint.
Stock level
As of August 13, 2026, the latest quote on Yahoo Finance shows Dow at $31.26, up 2.22% at the prior close and up 0.13% in pre-market trading. The 52-week range of $20.65 to $42.74 keeps the current level in the middle of the band.
