One way to identify dividend growth stocks is to look for dividend increases. Companies that pay rising dividends are likely to be financially healthy and generate consistent cash flow. I am interested in stocks with at least ten consecutive years of increasing annual regular dividend payments. Here is a list of such companies that increased their dividends last week.



McCormick & Company, Incorporated (MKC), +10.64% dividend increase

McCormick & Company, Incorporated has declared quarterly dividend of $0.52(+10.64% increase). It goes ex-dividend on 12/28/2017 and is payable on 1/16/2018. Annualized dividend is $1.88 at a yield of 1.83%.



J & J Snack Foods (JJSF), +7.14% dividend increase
