Every historical figure above is what Merck & Co., Inc. itself reported: per-share dividends declared each fiscal quarter; everything beyond that is the current rate carried forward and says so. Yield is trailing, computed against the last end-of-day close — a forward yield differs the moment the rate changes. Educational information, not investment advice.

Trailing twelve months vs the year before: +4.9%, and roughly +5.5% a year over five years — all computed from filed declarations.
