Quaker Houghton Raises Quarterly Dividend by 4.3 Percent
Shareholders of Quaker Houghton are set to receive a higher payout as the company’s board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.53 per share. This 4.3% increase marks the 17th consecutive year of dividend growth for the Pennsylvania-based industrial fluids manufacturer.
The dividend is scheduled for payment on October 30, 2026, to those holding stock at the close of business on October 16, 2026. This adjustment represents the 50th dividend increase since the firm went public in 1972, a milestone CEO and President Joseph A. Berquist attributes to the company's consistent cash flow and operational durability.
Berquist emphasized that the move aligns with a broader strategy of balancing capital allocation between growth investments and direct shareholder returns. Headquartered in Conshohocken, Quaker Houghton provides specialized process fluids to major sectors including automotive, aerospace, and steel production, employing approximately 4,700 people worldwide.
