Current KO price (approx): ~$80.72 per share (Feb. 25, 2026)

Dividend Details

Coca-Cola currently pays a quarterly dividend of about $0.51 per share (annualized roughly $2.04 per share) — this is the most recent published rate.

How Many Shares Do You Need?

To get $1,000 a year in dividends: Annual dividend per share ˜ $2.04 $1,000 ÷ $2.04 ˜ 490 shares

So you’d need roughly 490 shares of KO to generate about $1,000 in annual dividend income (before tax).

490 shares × $80.72 ˜ $39,500 total investment (based on current price)

Things to Keep in Mind

Dividend amounts can change. KO typically increases dividends over time, which would reduce the number of shares needed in the future.

Stock price fluctuations affect how much you need to invest — if KO shares rise, you’ll need more capital; if they fall (but the dividend stays the same), you’ll need less.

Taxes: Dividend income may be subject to taxes, depending on your tax situation. Would you like me to calculate this for a monthly dividend target (e.g., $200/month)?
