McCormick & Company, Incorporated (NYSE:MKC) is one of the dividend stocks picked by financial media as investors ask whether dividend stocks are tax-efficient. On June 23, McCormick said its board declared a quarterly dividend of $0.48 per share on its common stock. The dividend is payable July 20 to shareholders of record on July 6. The company said this marks its 102nd consecutive year of dividend payments.
The story fits the article more directly than a general operating update. McCormick's dividend is a regular corporate payout, so it can generally qualify for preferential dividend tax treatment when shareholder-level requirements are met. The payment still creates taxable income when received, which means the stock is not tax-efficient in the same way as a company that mainly returns value through unrealized capital appreciation. Still, the combination of a long dividend history and a straightforward corporate distribution gives McCormick a cleaner tax-efficiency profile than many income vehicles with ordinary-income or pass-through-style payouts.
McCormick & Company, Incorporated (NYSE:MKC) manufactures, markets, and distributes spices, seasoning mixes, condiments, sauces, and other flavor products for consumer and foodservice markets.
