RPM dividend analysis

RPM dividend deep dive

Quality + Risk pillar breakdown on the RPM dividend: Quality 37, Risk 10, composite safety 44/100. The Risk pillar specifically captures balance-sheet leverage and earnings volatility, both of which weigh on the distribution's durability through cycles.

RPM reinvested-yield math, holding TTM yield (5.20%) and 5y CAGR (10.2%) constant: 5/10/20-year cumulative income totals 32.1% / 74.6% / 204.8%.

RPM dividend calendar: ex-date 2026-03-01, pay date 2026-03-15. The pattern is quarterly, which means four payments per year at the current $1.455 per quarter run-rate.

Bottom line on RPM: 5.20% TTM yield + 10.2% growth + 44/100 safety. The forward question is whether the 32% payout ratio leaves enough free cash flow for continued growth at the current pace.
