DRIP Calculator (Dividend Reinvestment)

A DRIP automatically buys more shares with your dividends โ€” so next year's dividends are paid on more shares. This calculator simulates that compounding year by year.

DRIP compounding: dividends buy more shares, which pay more dividends next year. Dividend growth plus regular contributions beat a high starting yield.

Estimates only, not financial advice. Dividend yields and growth rates are assumptions, not guarantees of future results. Always consult a qualified financial professional before investing.

Why reinvest dividends?

Take a $10,000 position at 4% yield with 5% dividend growth and a $100 monthly contribution. After 15 years you own far more than what you put in โ€” and your annual dividend income from those reinvested shares keeps rising even if the stock price stalls.

A note on growth rates: dividend growth compounds, so small differences add up. This tool is a planning estimate, not a prediction.
