IAG raises interim dividend to €0.053 per share
IAG approved a €0.053-per-share interim dividend from its 2026 results, up from €0.048 a year earlier.
IAG is the airline group that owns Iberia, Vueling and Level.
After 19% tax withholding, shareholders will receive €0.0429 per share.
Payments are due to begin on December 7.
IAG has said it aims to raise its total annual dividend broadly in line with long-term inflation, paying about half as an interim dividend and half as a later top-up.
The group is due to publish third-quarter results next, after reporting a 20% fall in first-half net profit to €1.033 billion despite a 1% rise in revenue.
IAG’s board approved an interim dividend of €0.053 per share from its 2026 financial results.
The payment is scheduled to begin on 7 December.
