Good morning!

Big news for Canadian investors, as a major exchange announces its latest dividend hike.

We’ve also got one of the usual suspects, a water utility firm, declaring its latest quarterly distribution. And an interesting hardware stock that provides sound systems for watching The Usual Suspects declares its upcoming dividend.

Let’s start with the raise fist!

TMX Group Limited ($TMXXF) Raises Quarterly Dividend By 10%

Stock market and commodity exchanges are traditionally good investments because they are a meta-play on the very concept of trading.

Example?

TMX Group Limited, owner the Toronto Stock Exchange. The company’s U.S. “Pink Sheet” listed $TMXXF shares are up 477.82% over the past decade. And that doesn’t include dividends or dividend reinvestment.

Last week, TMX Group Limited announced its “fifth dividend increase in three years.” The company hiked its payout by 10%.

TMX Group Limited will now pay a $0.22/share quarterly dividend.

  • Ex-dividend date: 8/15/25

  • Payout date: 8/29/25

  • Forward starting dividend yield: 2.16%

H2O America ($HTO) Declares $0.42 Dividend

H2O America is a Dividend King water utility that serves 1.6 million customers across the United States. The firm has has raised its dividend every year for 57 years.

The company has also paid uninterrupted dividends for 80 years.

Late last week, H2O America declared an upcoming dividend payment.

H2O America will pay a $0.42/share quarterly dividend, in-line with the previous.

  • Ex-dividend date: 8/11/25

  • Payout date: 9/2/25

  • Forward starting dividend yield: 3.46%

Dolby Laboratories, Inc. ($DLB) Declares $0.33 Dividend

Dolby Laboratories, Inc. designs and develops audio equipment.

This is somewhat of an unusual dividend stock. Especially if, like me, you mostly know this company from watching movies.

You may recognize the Dolby logo at the start of films like Top Gun: Maverick, The Batman, or Dune. But, the FIFA Club World Cup, French Open, and Stanley Cup Finals are also broadcast in Dolby sound. And, Dolby sound systems are integrated into smartphones and televisions.

The company is also a dividend stock with 10 years of consecutive dividend payments.

Recently, Dolby Laboratories, Inc. announced a $0.33/share quarterly distribution that is in-line with last.

  • Ex-dividend date: 8/12/25

  • Payout date: 8/20/25

  • Forward starting dividend yield: 1.75%
