About the HSY dividend calculator

The Hershey (HSY) dividend income calculator reconstructs what an actual cash investment would have paid out in dividends. At the split-adjusted closing price of $3.66 on Aug 19, 1985, an investment of $1,000 bought 273.22 shares — the cost basis every payout below is measured against, through May 15, 2026.

Across that span those shares have paid $17,123.34 in dividends — about 17× the $1,000 invested. Measured against the entry price, yield on cost moved from 3.55% in its first full year (1986) to 150% by 2025, reflecting a dividend that has grown far faster than the price originally paid.

These numbers assume every dividend was taken as cash. Reinvesting instead — the DRIP toggle above — would buy additional shares at each ex-date price, compounding the share count and lifting every subsequent payment.
