MADISON, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--MGE Energy Declares Regular Dividend.

Rose's Income Garden portfolio thrives on dividend raises, with five key holdings boosting payouts between 1.9% and 9.9% this September. CMI delivered a standout 9.89% dividend increase, reinforcing its status as a quality, reliable income stock to buy on cyclical dips. DUK, SPG, and UNP all raised dividends modestly; with a Rose recommendation given for all reviewed stocks.

Dividends are one of the best benefits to being a shareholder, but finding a great dividend stock is no easy task. Does MGE (MGEE) have what it takes?

Dividend Kings are some of the most reliable dividend growers in the investment universe. Having raised its dividend last month, MGE Energy is a newly minted Dividend King. The company's demographic trends remain promising, the AA- S&P credit rating is impressive, and the dividend can keep growing. The only dissuading factor right now remains the valuation.

MADISON, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--MGE Energy, Inc. (Nasdaq: MGEE), highlights 50 consecutive years of dividend increases in its investor newsletter, Inside View, which also includes the following topics.

The Dividend Kings list now includes 56 stocks, but only a select few offer fair value and strong yields relative to share price. Five top-yielding Dividend Kings—UVV, CDUAF, NWN, UBSI, and KVUE—currently meet my ideal of annual dividends exceeding share price. Analyst targets suggest these top-yield Kings could deliver net gains of 16% to 75% by September 2026, with lower volatility than the market.

This is my latest article where I provide predictions of upcoming dividend increases from companies with long-term dividend growth histories. Dividend growth in August was strong, with several companies posting double-digit increases, but September is expected to bring mostly mid-single-digit boosts. Tobacco company Altria continued to grow its dividend, extending its growth streak to 56 years with a 4% increase.

I focus on companies with consistent annual dividend increases, signaling financial strength and reliable cash flow for long-term investors. This week's highlighted list features firms with an average dividend increase of 10.4% and a median dividend streak of 21 years. Goldman Sachs delivers a wonderful 33% increase and has become a total return story.
