My Highest Quality Dividend Challengers

This article presents the highest-quality Dividend Challengers, which are companies listed on U.S. exchanges that have consistently higher annual dividend payouts for at least 5-9 years. 

Companion articles presented the highest-quality Dividend Champions (25+ years) and Dividend Contenders (10-24 years).

I use a quality scoring system that employs six quality indicators from trusted and independent sources. Each quality indicator contributes up to 5 points to a stock's quality score, for a maximum of 30 points.

To screen for the highest quality Dividend Challengers, I screened for stocks with quality scores in the range of 21-30. 

Additionally, I present the top Dividend Challengers based on various metrics, including the Adjusted Chowder Number, Dividend Yield, Dividend Growth Rate, and Trailing Total Returns. 

Please read this article at Seeking Alpha to review my highest-quality Dividend Contenders.
